Yesterday, it was said that the King of Qin listened to Fan Ju's strategy and prepared to attack Zhou Tianzi, asking for help from the vassal states on the one hand, and organizing an army to prepare for the battle on the other. Today we move on.

At that time, the strength of the Zhou Dynasty was weakening day by day, and although the king of Zhou was in the position of the Son of Heaven, he could not command the princes.

wanted to organize an army to meet the Qin State, and only gathered five or six thousand people, and there was no money to configure chariots.

searched all the wealthy families in China, borrowed money as military expenses, and made a note, agreeing to repel the Qin army and repay the interest and principal.

The Zhou army was stationed in Yique, waiting for the rescue of the princes' army.

At that time, Korea was being attacked by the Qin army, and it was too busy to take care of itselfZhao Guogang was relieved of the siege, and he still had lingering fears about the Qin army;The state of Qi and the state of Qin made an alliance and did not participate in the rescue;Only the Yan State and the Chu State sent two armies to the rescue, but they were both stationed far away and waited and saw the situation.

The king of Qin heard that the hearts of the people in various countries were not in harmony and did not really rescue Zhou Tianzi, so he sent additional troops to help attack the city, and sent another 100,000 Qin troops from Hangu Pass.

The armies of Yan and Chu were stationed for more than three months, and when they saw that the other vassal states did not come to their rescue, the army was slack, so they also returned to China with their respective divisions.

The army of the Zhou Dynasty also led troops back to China, and the king of Zhou sent troops in vain.
