The fundamental reason why the state of Chu was difficult to conquer was his political system.

Unlike Qin, it is different from the other six countries.

Some people only know that the Six Kingdoms exclude the Chu State, but they don't know why they want to exclude the Chu State.

There are also people who know that the state of Chu is called barbarians, but they don't know why they are called that.

In the final analysis, this historical problem will be traced back to the time of the state of Chu.

Since then, the state of Chu has been different from other vassal states.

Because the king of Chu was not given by Zhou Tianzi.

Because of its unique geographical location, coupled with the fact that there were many vassal states in the north at that time, the phenomenon of big fish eating small fish and small fish touching big fish continued to occur.

This gave the Chu State the opportunity to concentrate on development and rise.

At the beginning, the state of Chu was nothing more than a group of tribes uniting to claim themselves kings in order to resist the powerful vassal states.

The name of Chu originated from the fact that the wife of Xiong Li, the ancestor of Chu State, had a difficult birth when Xiong Li gave birth to Xiong Li, and died after a caesarean section, Xiong Li survived and grew up to be the leader of Chu in the future.

And after Yan Li's death, the wizard wrapped his abdomen with Chu and buried it, Chu is Jingtiao, and in order to commemorate her, the descendants called themselves Chu.

In order to thank Xiong Xiong for his contribution in the destruction of the Shang Dynasty, King Cheng of Zhou named his grandson Xiong Yi as a viscount, and then established the state of Chu on his own.

The vassal states rejected the state of Chu because he was established by a viscount, and it was not divided by Zhou Tianzi.

Why did we work desperately, step by step to improve the title, and after several generations of hard work, we were able to seal the country, and you, a little viscount, proclaimed yourself the state of Chu?

Although the state of Chu once went to the throne for a time, it later proclaimed itself.

In everyone's words, it is that your Chu State is not of proper blood.

So, the Zhou Dynasty also took a king of Zhou Zhao.

You, a self-proclaimed Chu State, dare to kill Zhou Tianzi?

The vassal states that were already unpleasant to you exploded in an instant.

In addition to these, the state of Chu is also incompatible with other countries in all aspects.

Because the Chu State was formed by multiple tribes at the beginning of its establishment, these tribes had a high enough autonomy.

The king of Chu is just a person elected by everyone.

And except for those who have made great contributions to Guo Jia, or the sons of the kings are more talented, but have no chance to inherit the throne, they will be crowned kings.

But the state of Chu, there are more than 70 feudal monarchs up and down, and the combined countries are not as many as the feudal monarchs of his Chu country.

And the territories of these large and small feudal lords add up to the territory of the Chu State.

So you have nothing to say.

And now, how to deal with the sequelae of this political model of Chu State, even if the king is not hungry, he must deal with it carefully.

The reason why Wu Yi and others dared to ask Han Xin for benefits was here.

The soldiers under their command were their own private soldiers, and they were all composed of peasant households under their command.

The root of life is in their hands, so they don't dare to disobey the orders of Wuyi and others.

And if you go according to the rules of the Han army, there may be no problem for a day or two, but after a long time, the problem comes.

If you don't find a way to solve this problem now, in the future, those mud legs will hit their position fiercely.

Although the Qin Dynasty implemented the county system in the old land of Chu, when the Han army of Wang Bu was not hungry blocked Zhang Han's Qin army in the Central Plains.

All parts of the old Chu have taken action, restored the territory of the Chu State in a short period of time, and even expanded it a little.

And the officials of the counties and counties are also held by some old nobles in various places.

Although Qin Shi Huang moved a large number of nobles, he could not move these people, and a large number of branches remained in each family.

And now, these people are the people in power in the state of Chu.

The original aristocracy divided the official positions at the county and county levels according to their strength.

Although it is still a county on the surface, it is the same as the period of partition on the inside.

Wu Yi seemed to think that Han Xin was too young to understand the meaning of his words.

So he continued: "The general may have misunderstood what we mean, although we are only a small nobleman in the Chu State, and our power and land are not as good as those big nobles, but we can represent more nobles of the Chu State. If the general can properly settle us, it will be beneficial to persuade the other Chu nobles to surrender, and today we can follow the general's orders, but the other Chu nobles see what happened to us today, and they may give up the idea of taking refuge......"

"The defeat of the Chu State has proved that it is useless to divide these nobles, and the current situation of the Chu State has proved that the royal power is difficult to govern here, do you think that the Han State has left such a big hidden danger for itself?" Han Xin looked at everyone lightly.

He can understand the mind, it is nothing more than not wanting to give up the power he has obtained with great difficulty.

Even if you surrender, you want to continue to fight for it so that you can maintain your current life.

Preferential treatment is fine, but their demands are contrary to the basic policy of the Han State.

This is a matter of principle, and it is not something that he Han Xin can influence alone.

Moreover......

"General Ben is also a native of Chu, and his ancestors are all from Chu, but he is not as rich as you, but as an ordinary Chu person, General Ben can tell you and others that you and others are self-righteous and regard themselves as the savior of the Chu people, but they don't know that the real Chu people have long hated you and others......"

Everyone was stunned.

Han Xin's words are still relatively convincing, as a person who came up from the bottom of the Chu State, of course Han Xin knows the thoughts of the people at the bottom of the Chu State.

It is true that the aristocratic feudalism can provide a relatively stable environment, but again, exploitation will be more terrifying than elsewhere.

Take a county, for example, and every year nearly half of the county's output goes to these nobles.

I snatched it from you, and then gave you a bite to eat when you couldn't live, and then you have to be grateful to me, because I am doing the work for you, and not like other nations, who have nothing to eat, no value, and wait to starve to death.

Han Xin was able to stand out, except for the plug-in of the Heavenly Han King, he himself was a group of people who were ranked superior in terms of force and intelligence.

Especially now that he has experienced two years in the Han Kingdom, and compared with his previous life, Han Xin is almost certain to win 100% of this campaign.

Han Xin continued to look at everyone, sighed, but still couldn't hold back and said: "Don't have any more illusions, the people of Chu State in the past, they didn't have a choice, but now they have a choice, although the policy of the Han State is not good for you and others, but it is beneficial to ordinary people." ”

"If the Han Kingdom comes, they will no longer have to work hard for you, they can rely on their own labor to support their families, the Han army is like a bamboo, all the way to the benevolent government, mercilessly suppressing the nobles everywhere, not only to obtain military supplies, but also to let the people see the Han army's opposition to the nobles."

"You say, if the Han army comes, why should the people at the bottom still work for you?"

"You might as well tell you bluntly that what you rely on is nothing more than the slaves of the people under your hands, just as you are the boiling water in the pot, and the slaves of the people are like the burning wood at the bottom of the pot, and they directly draw away the burning firewood, what do you take to boil? The King of Han called this the bottom of the kettle......"
