Vaizer's Translation of Warring States Policy

Shou Tian hoped to get soldiers from Qi and Wei to attack Zhao.

Shouhe Hotan hoped to lead the soldiers of Qi and Wei to attack Zhao, but Wei Jun and Hotan disagreed.

Shou said, "Please send 50,000 people from each country to capture Zhao within five months." Pan Tian said: "People who use soldiers easily are prone to danger in their country; People who plan at will are easily trapped by themselves. Today, if you talk about catching Zhao Yi, you are afraid of future trouble. " Shou said, "You are too unwise. Qi Weijun didn't agree to send troops at first, but now you are threatening them when you say they are in trouble. In this way, if Zhao is not attacked, our plot will fail. If you simply say it's easy, then the war can begin. " When the two sides were at war, the Qi and Wei armies saw that the situation was critical. How dare they turn a blind eye and not send troops to us? "Pan Tian said," good. So I advised Qi and Wei to listen. Shouhe can finally lead Qi Weibing. Wei Jun and before leaving the country, worried that Zhao would be defeated, they mobilized all the troops to follow, and finally defeated Zhao.

Shoujian Liang Jun

Shou went to see Wei Jun and said, "I tried my best to win more land for the world and improve the reputation of the king, but Tian needed to destroy me and the king obeyed him, so there was nothing I could do. Tian wants to go, I serve the king; Tian wants to work for the king, so I'll leave. " Wang Wei said, "Tian Xu, he is my trusted minister. If you think it is bad for you, even if you kill him and drive him away, what can you do to me? " Now I will make him afraid to interfere in your affairs for you. If he interferes in your affairs, I'll kill him for you and drive him away. How's it going? "Xi shou agreed. So he went to Qi to meet Tian Ying, made an alliance with him, and invited his son to Wei to help Shou, while Shou became prime minister in South Korea.

Su wants to talk about Wang Wei.

Sue lobbied Wang Wei and said, "I want to ask your Majesty that Meng Changjun has done his best for Wei. Or do your best for Qi? " Wang Wei said, "He did his best for Wei, not Qi." Did Gongsun Yan do his best for Wei or South Korea? "Wang Wei said," he tried his best to compare Wei with South Korea. So he said: "Gongsun wants to be close to Korea and alienate Wei; Will be close to Qi and alienate Wei. The two of them will use the king's country to plot things in Wang Zizhong. It is impossible to be conservative and neutral. The king will know nothing about the princes, and his country will only be weakened. Can you do it? The king might as well put the needs of the field on him in order to examine what they have done. These two people will think,' Tian Xu is not one of us. "If we are bad for Wei, we will definitely hurt us in front of Wang Wei." The two of them certainly dare not have ulterior motives. What they did, whether it was good or bad for Wei, was investigated by Wang. I think this is not only beneficial to myself, but also convenient for doing things. "Wang Wei said," Good. " Wang Wei really needs to keep Tian Fang around.

In history, there is no Xi Shou as king.

Shi Ju spoke ill of Xi Shou in front of Wang Wei. Xi Shou wanted to frame Shi Ju, so he said to Yi Yi, "I want Wei to give you Wei Chan, and Wang Wei will become a sage like Yao Shun;" If Mr. Wang doesn't accept it, he is also a person like Xu You. I want to ask Wang Wei to give Mr. Wang a city of thousands of households. " Zhang Yi was very happy, and Shi Ju visited Shou many times. When Wang Wei heard that Shi Ju was like this, he suspected that Shi Ju and Shi Ju had left without saying goodbye.

The king of Chu attacked Liang Nan.

The king of Chu attacked southern Wei, and South Korea seized the opportunity to besiege Wei Qiang. Cheng, Shou said to the King of Korea, "If we attack Qiang with all our strength, the army of Chu will certainly advance, and Wei can't support it, so we have to surrender respectfully. Obeying Chu, South Korea is bound to be in danger because of the combination of Chu and Wei. Therefore, the king might as well give up Qiang, and Wei has no worries about the encirclement of South Korea. Will inevitably go to war with Chu. If we can't defeat Chu, we can't keep the girder, the land of Qiang people. If we defeat the State of Chu, Wei Bing will be exhausted, so it will be easy for the King of Chu to attack the Qiang people.

Wei Huiwang is dead.

When Wei Huiwang died, the burial date had been set, but it was snowing every day, and the snow was several feet thick, which destroyed the battlements and had to be prepared to build a plank road for burial. Many ministers suggested that the prince said, "If a funeral is held in such heavy snow, the people will feel very poor, and the state's expenditure may not be enough, so they asked to reschedule the funeral." The prince said, "Because of the hardships of the people and the lack of state expenditure, sons will not hold a funeral for their late king, which is against etiquette. Don't say any more. "

Ministers were afraid to say anything, so they told Xi Shou. Xi Shou said, "I have nothing to say. Maybe only Gong Hui can do it! Please tell Gong Hui. "

Gong Hui said, "All right." He drove to see the prince and said, "Has the burial date been set?" The prince said, "Yes." Gong Hui said, "Once upon a time, the king was buried at the foot of the Chu Mountain, and the rain washed away the grave, exposing the coffin. Wen Wangdao: "Alas! You must want to meet the minister and the people, so you let the water flow out. So he took out the coffin of the late king and set up a court for him. The ministers bowed down, and all the people came to visit him and were reburied three days later. This is the etiquette of King Wen. Now that the date of burial has been set, it is snowing heavily, several feet deep, and it is difficult to hold a funeral. Is it a little impatient to let the prince be buried in time despite difficulties? I hope the prince will reschedule. My late king must want to stay a little longer, be close to the country and comfort the people. This is why it is snowing all over the world. Just change the date of burial. This is the etiquette of King Wen. If you don't do it, you are still ashamed to imitate King Wen? " The prince said, "Great. Then change the burial date. "

Hui Shi not only carried out his idea, but also asked Wang Wei not to bury the late king, and expounded the etiquette of King Wen. Is it a trivial matter to preach and explain the etiquette of King Wen to the world?

Five countries attacked Qin.

Qi, Yan, Zhao, Wei and Han all failed in attacking Qin. After that, Qi tried to attack Song, but Qin stopped him. Qi sent Guo Song to the State of Qin, demanding joint operations with the State of Qin, and Zhao Haoqi of the State of Qin agreed. Wang Wei was afraid of Chyi Chin's union and wanted to make peace with Qin.

Su Qin said to Wang Wei, "The King of Qin said to Guo Song,' It was Qi that split and conquered Song. Taking advantage of the exhaustion of Song State, it was Chu State and Wei State that competed with the King of Qi for the fruits of victory. Please tell the King of Qi: Don't stop Chu from attacking Wei. Then the King of Qi can destroy the State of Song by himself. The King of Qi attacked the State of Song, so please combine rigidity with softness. For Song Like, cheating it is not treachery, and destroying it is not a great hatred. Making peace with it is to seize territory, which has been achieved, and then stepping up the attack, with the aim of destroying Song State. "When I heard this, I was worried about you in private. Qin will certainly use the method of swallowing Song to deal with the King of Qi. Moreover, it will definitely ask the king for land. It has reached the land and will intensify its attack on the king. It must look down on Qi, too. When the relationship between Qi and Wei deteriorated, they would unite with Qi and further claim land from Qi Wang. Qin used this method to deal with Chu and South Korea. I hope your majesty will think twice. Qin and Wei made friends with ulterior motives. Therefore, for the king's consideration, the best policy is to attack Qin, the middle policy is to confront Qin, and the worst policy is to stick to the alliance and pretend to make peace, while the alliances should maintain close ties. If Qin and Qi unite, Wei will have no choice. Your Majesty, please listen to me. You can't unite with Qin.

"Qin is very powerful, and the prime minister of Qin is knowledgeable and skilled. Therefore, anyone who strikes Qin as king cannot show it publicly. The vassals asked them to attack the state of Qin, but they just launched it in secret and dared not make it public. Seeing that the vassals were attacking Qin, they betrayed their allies first and freed themselves. Governors can ask them to confront Qin, but they just pretend to be intimidated by their allies. Out of necessity; When the vassals could neither attack Qin nor confront Qin, they turned against their allies, took Qin as their friend and took care of themselves. Such a man betrayed the king as his own capital. How can this free the country from worries? Those who can save the nation and survive must study the upper, middle and lower strategies and implement the best ones. If the top strategy fails, the middle strategy will be implemented, and if the middle strategy fails, the bottom strategy will be implemented. The failure of the next strategy means that we will never compromise with Qin. As long as we live, we will destroy Qin. In order to make Qin no longer have resentment and interests, only by destroying Qin can there be peace. Now the King of Qi has given up the strategy of "destroying Qin" and "destroying Qin", and joined hands with the State of Qin, believing that this is a strategy of saving the nation from subjugation. I don't know what advantages this plan has. Even so, I hope your majesty will consider my plan.

"Yan and Qi are enemies, while Yan and Qin are brothers. I think it is really difficult for the hostile Yan State and Qi State to unite to attack Qin State, an ally of Yan State. Once upon a time, the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou fought in the land of Zhuolu, and Chiyou's ally Xirong's army did not come to support the Yellow Emperor. Yu Wang attacked the Three Temples, but the allies of the Three Temples, Dongyi people, did not send troops to meet Yu Wang. Now even the Yellow Emperor and Dayu dare not let their brother Yan attack Qin. But I can let Yan and Qi send troops.

"I have contact with officials of Zhao, Wei and North Korea, such as,,, Zhou, Han and others. I am humble to them, and I am worried that they will be half-hearted in attacking Qin, so it is inevitable that the relationship between Qin and myself will deteriorate. At the beginning, I asked the vassal States to break diplomatic relations with Qin, and I contacted the five vassal States to form an alliance and break diplomatic relations with Qin. Both Yang Jun and Han agreed to attack the State of Qin, believing that Su Shi and Lian Heng's family had lived in Handan secretly. I persuaded the King of Qi to disintegrate Su Shihe's Lian Heng plot, and the vassals * * * formed an alliance to attack Qin, so the State of Qin sent Su Shi to persuade the vassals not to accept the idea of jointly attacking Qin, but regarded Qi as an unbreakable friend and demanded that Su Shi eventually go west to Qin to report to the King of Qin because Qi did not attack Wei. It's not that I don't know Qin's prowess. I'm thinking of the king. "

Wei Wenzitian needs Zhou Xiao's kindness.

Wei Guo's friends with Zhou Xiao intend to put the blame on Shou. Shou was very worried and said to Wang Wei, "What we are worried about now is Qi. Qi Weiwang listened to Tian Ying, king of Guo Jing, and Tian Ying wanted to make friends with Qi, so why not let Tian Wen, the son of Tian Ying, be the prime minister of Wei? He will definitely make Qi friendly to Wei. " Wang Wei said, "Good." Tian Wen was invited and appointed as Prime Minister. Because of Shou's recommendation, Tian Wen was appointed Prime Minister of Wei, so he was grateful to Shou, and Shou let him deal with Zhou Xiao.

Ambassador Wang Wei returned to Chu Shi.

Wang Wei sent Hui Shi to Chu and Xi to Qi. The two envoys used the same vehicle multiplier, that is, the same etiquette and level.

Hui Shi sent people to Chu to create a public opinion, saying, "Wang Wei sent people to defend Qi, and Hui Shi went to Chu. They used the same vehicle multiplier, the same etiquette, and the same level. We can know which country in Qi and Chu respects Wang Wei's envoy and which country is generous to Wei. If Chu respects Hui Shi, Hui Shi will respect him at home. " After hearing this, the King of Chu personally went to meet Hui Shi outside the primary school with a generous gift.

Wei Huiwang is home to many people.

So he organized a national army to attack Qi under the command of Prince Shen.

Someone said to Gongzili's teacher, "Why don't you let Gongzili cry in front of the queen mother and let the prince lead the troops to attack Qi?" If things are done, the prince will be grateful to the son; If it can't be stopped, then Li Can will be the king. Lord shen is young and unfamiliar with war. Pan Tian is a veteran of Qi, and Sun Bin is good at fighting. The prince will not win the battle. If he is defeated, he will be captured. Therefore, Gongzi urged Prince Shen not to lead troops against Qi in front of Wang Wei. If Wang Wei obeyed Gongzili, Gongzili would be sealed. If Wang Wei doesn't listen to the son's reason, Prince Shen will be defeated; Prince Shen has lost the battle, and of course Son Li is going to be a prince. " When the son becomes a prince, of course he will inherit the throne. "

Qi and Wei fought in Maling.

Wei Qi fought in Maling, the Qi army defeated Wei Jun, killed Wang Wei Shen, and the hundred thousand troops of Wei were all defeated. At this moment, Wei Huiwang summoned Prime Minister Hui Shi and said, "Qi is my enemy, and I will not avenge this. Wei is small, but I want to mobilize the whole country to attack Qi. What do you think? " Hui Shi replied: "No, what I heard was:' Those who govern the country by virtue should abide by the law and use force to control the world.' Now what the king told his deputies was neither legal nor strategic. The king of Qi hated Zhao first, and then he sent his troops to attack Qi. Now that the country is defeated and there are no defensive measures, the king wants to mobilize the whole country to crusade against Qi. This is not the degree of law-abiding and strategy mentioned by the minister. If the King of Qi wants to avenge Qi, it is better to take off the clothes of the emperor, put on the clothes of the vassal, cancel the title of emperor, and pay tribute to Qi as a vassal, so that the King of Chu will be furious. At this time, the king of Qi sent lobbyists to provoke Chu and Qi to war. Then Chu will attack Qi and attack the turbulent Qi with a stable Chu, and Qi will be defeated by Chu, which is tantamount to the king conquering Qi with Chu. "Wei Huiwang said," Good plan! " So he sent an envoy to the State of Qi, expressing his willingness to pay tribute to the King of Qi as a courtier.

Tian Ying and Qi Xianggong accepted it, and Zhang Chou said, "What Wei said cannot be accepted. If Qi did not defeat Wei, but was congratulated by Wei and made peace with Wei before attacking Chu, it would definitely defeat Chu. But now Qi has defeated Wei, defeated Wei's 100,000-strong army, captured Wang Wei Shen, and conquered Wei with 10,000 chariots. Even Qin and Chu were defeated, and both countries thought that the violence in Qi had stopped. Moreover, the king of Chu is a fighter and has a good reputation, so it must be Chu who will eventually become the worry of Qi. " Tian Ying did not accept Zhang Chou's suggestion, but accepted Wei Huiwang's request and went to see Qi Weiwang with Wei Huiwang several times in a row.

The prince of Zhao was very angry, and the king of Chu flew into a rage. He personally led the troops to attack Qi, and Zhao also sent troops to respond. As a result, the Qi army was defeated in Xuzhou.

Hui Shi is a friend of Han and Wei.

Hui Shi made Wang Wei go to Qi as a hostage in order to make friends with Han Wei. Wang Wei wanted to see Taiziming. Zhu Cang said to Wang Wei, "Why didn't your majesty say that he was ill? I want to persuade Jing and Tian Ying to say,' Wang Wei is old and sick now, so it is better to let the prince return to China tomorrow to show his kindness to Wei. Otherwise, the son is high in Chu, and Chu will send him back and make him a prince. In this way, Qi left an empty hostage and did something unreasonable. Wang Wei listened to the advice, and Taiziming was able to return to China.

Tian Xu is more expensive than Wang Wei.

Tian Xu is very popular with Wang Wei. Hui Shi said to Tian Xu, "You must be kind to the people around the king. Poplar, for example, can live when planted horizontally, live when planted upside down, and live when broken. Ten people plant poplars and one person pulls them out, so there will be no living poplars. It takes ten people to plant a good living poplar, but one person can't pull it. Why? This is because it is difficult to plant trees, but easy to pull them out. Since you have taken root in front of Wang Wei, there are too many people who want to get rid of you. You must be in danger. "

Tian Xu died.

After Tian Xu's death, Zhao Yu, a Guo Xiang of Chu, said to Su Dai, "After Tian Xu's death, I am worried that one of Zhang Yi, Tian Wen and Xi Shoujiang Gongsun Yan will become the prime minister of Wei." Su Dai said, "Who is the Prime Minister of Wei?" Zhao Yu said: "I want the prince to be the prime minister himself." Su Dai said: "Please let me go to the north to see Wang Wei and make sure that the prince becomes prime minister." Zhao Yu said, "What should we do?" Su Dai said, "Suppose it's Wang Wei, I'll lobby you." Zhao Yu said, "How to lobby?" Su Dai replied, "I come from Chu, and Zhao Xiang of Chu is very worried. I asked him,' What are you worried about? Said, "Tian must die. I am worried that one of Zhang Yi, Tian Wen and Shou Gongsun Yan Xihui will become Wei Guo Xiang. " I said,' Don't worry, Wang Wei is a wise monarch and will definitely not appoint Zhang Yi as prime minister. As a result, Zhang Yi is bound to be close to Qin and alienate Qin. Appointment is bound to be close to Qi and alienate Wei. As a result, Xi is bound to be close to Korea and alienate Wei. Wang Wei is a wise monarch and will certainly not let them be prime ministers. "I said,' Let the prince be the prime minister himself. All three people think that the prince will not be prime minister for a long time, and they will try their best to please Wei with their own country, and they all covet the title of prime minister of Wei. Wei is so powerful that with the help of Qin, Qi and Han, Wei is bound to be safe. Therefore, it is better to let the prince be the prime minister himself. " "

So, Su Dai went north to see Wang Wei, said these words, persuaded Wang Wei, and Wang Wei became the prime minister himself.

Qin Zhaowei believes in Angu.

The king of Qin thought he didn't want to go, so he invited Wei to believe him. On behalf of Angu, Su Dai spoke to the King of Qin: "I heard that' loyal ministers don't have to be all wise, and wise men don't have to be all loyal'." I want to express my humble opinion to your majesty. I'm worried about cheating on the king and killing myself. I hope the king will seriously consider it. Now Qi Weiwang sent someone to Wei as prime minister instead of Xin 'an Jun to improve the diplomatic relations between Qin and Wei. I'm worried that Wei will be more confused about the diplomatic relations between Qin and Wei, and I wonder if it will hinder the relations between Wei and Zhao. I'm afraid Zhao has strengthened his strength. Wang Wei likes Angu very much and thinks he is a clever man. Obviously, Wang Wei is afraid of respecting Qin. If the King of Qi sent someone to Wei, but Wang Wei didn't appoint him, it would be useless for the King of Qi to send someone to Wei. If Wang Wei appoints the person sent by Wang, then Wang Wei must abandon the person he loves and appoint the person he fears and hates. This is the reason why Wang Wei is uneasy. It is very difficult for Xin Anjun to give up Guo Xiang as a big country without doing so. It is difficult to maintain good relations by putting the monarch of another country in an uneasy position and letting the prime minister of another country do what he can't do. I'm worried that Wei is more confused about the diplomatic relations between Qin and Wei. In addition, I believe that I will give up being the prime minister of a big country in Wancheng, so Premier Zhao will definitely say: Zhao and Qin will unite, and Qin will definitely let people he likes take power in Zhao. In this way, Zhao existed, but I lost my power. Zhao is safe and sound, but I am in danger. In this way, the whole State of Zhao will have the determination to fight to the death with the State of Qin and resolutely defend against the enemy, so I am worried that the State of Zhao will become stronger instead.

"The king wants to enhance the diplomatic relations between Qin and Wei, so that he can respect Qin carefully? It is better to reuse Angu and call him Guo Xiang. Wei Guoxin respects the king and Wei Bi 'an is honored; If you trust An Jun and don't respect the king, Wei will be in danger and your power will be weakened. In this case, I believe that An Jun respects the king, is loyal to his master, and can make a good plan for himself. If he respects the king, he will be perfect. The ruler of Zhao will definitely say,' Wei's name and status are not higher than mine, and its native products are not more than mine. Believe in sealing Qin with Wei. Qin is very kind to him, so Wei can live in peace and feel honored. If our country goes to war with Qin. Zhao will be the target of public criticism, and Zhao will be in a position to weaken the danger. This is not a safe plan. It is not a panacea to fight against Qin Wei at home, breed disasters at home and kill yourself. "Then Prime Minister Zhao will be worried because he can't be unified with Qin, and regret his wrong behavior. He hopes that Zhao will go in peace and honor himself, and will definitely cut more land in the future and sincerely honor the king. In this way, the king can get such a big profit from the land ceded by Zhao, which Yao and Shun want but can't get as easily as blowing off dust! I hope that your majesty will see clearly the advantages and disadvantages of deposing Angu and appointing Angu. "

Qin Chu attacked Wei.

Qin Chu attacked Wei Wai Pi. Someone said to the king of Chu for Wei: "When Qin Chu defeated Wei, Wang Wei was afraid of the country's demise, and he would definitely unite with Qin. Why didn't the King of Qi betray Qin and unite with Wei? When Wang Wei is happy, he must send the prince to Chu as a hostage. Qin is afraid of losing the support of Chu, and will definitely cede land to the king of Chu. Even if the king of Qi attacks Wei with Qin again, it is ok. " The king of Chu said, "Good." Therefore, Chu betrayed Qin and joined forces with Wei. Wei sent the prince to Chu as a hostage.

Qin was afraid and promised to cede territory to Chu, hoping to attack Wei with Chu again. The general was very angry, wanted to attack Wei with Wei, and worried that Wang Wei was not in Chu.

Someone told the King of Chu the reason for his illness: "The guest minister was ill and sent me to visit the King, saying," The King of Qin wanted to sacrifice the city, but Wang Wei was still in Chu, so he didn't dare to sacrifice the land. If the king sends Wang Wei back, I will ask the king of Qin to sacrifice his land and restore Qin Chu's old friendship, so as to capture Wei in one fell swoop. " The king of Chu said, "All right." So he sent Chu back to Wang Wei, and Qin immediately joined forces with Wei to attack Chu.

Pang Cong and the prince were born in Handan.

Pang cong and the king of Wei are going to Zhao as hostages. Pang Cong said to Wei Huiwang, "Now some people say that there are tigers in the market. Do you believe him? " Wang Wei said, "No."Two people said there were tigers in the market. Do you believe them? Wang Wei said, "I have some doubts." "Three people said there were tigers in the market. Do you believe them? " Wang Wei said, "I believe it." Pang Cong said: "It is clear that there are no tigers in the city, but three people say there are tigers, as if there really are tigers." "Now Handan is far from the girder than the fair, and there are far more than three people talking about servants. I hope your majesty can see this clearly. " Wang Wei said, "I know the difference myself." So Pang Cong bid farewell to the road, and his slanderers soon spread to Wang Wei. Later, the prince returned to Wei without being a hostage, and Pang Cong was not summoned.

Liang Wang Wei Ying became a vassal in Fantai.

Liang gave a banquet in honor of the ministers at Vatican. When the wine was hot, King Hui of Liang appealed to Duke Lu. Lu Jun stood up, left the table and respectfully proposed a toast, saying, "Once upon a time, Yao Di's daughter Yidi made wine, which was delicious and presented to Dayu. After drinking it, Dayu thought it was sweet, so he alienated Yidi and gave up drinking, saying,' Someone will die from drinking in the future.' Qi Huangong felt hungry in the middle of the night, so Yiya cooked a barbecue and made a five-flavor dish for Qi Huangong. Huan Gong felt very satisfied after eating it and didn't wake up until the next morning. He said,' Someone will die of greed.' Jin Wengong gained the power of beauty, because of his infatuation with beauty, he didn't care about politics for three days in a row. He pushed away Nan Wei and alienated her, saying, "Some people will die of lewdness in the future." The king of Chu boarded the powerful platform, overlooking the collapse of the mountain, looking left at the Yangtze River and right at Dongting, wandering around Ozawa, so happy that he forgot to die, so he vowed never to board the powerful platform again, saying,' Some descendants will die because they are intoxicated with the beautiful pool on the high platform.' Now the Lord's cup is full of wine made like Yidi; Eating delicious food like Yiya, holding a beautiful white table in the left hand and a beautiful beard in the right hand are all as beautiful as Nanwei; There is Jialin in front of you and Lantai in the back, both of which are music gardens similar to Qiangtai. As long as there is one of them, it is enough to destroy the country. Now, God has these four things. Can he not accept the warning? King Hui of Liang praised Lu Jun's words and told the governors present to take a warning.
