1357. What the Chu people wanted

The bottom line of the Qin State is that if the Qin State wants to ensure the existence of Guanzhong and loses the absolute control of Guanzhong, then Qin is in danger.

This is not the era when there were many small countries, although the founding of Qin did not have absolute control over Guanzhong, but at that time there were many small princes in Guanzhong, Qin relied on the alliance to fight that, step by step to complete the unification of Guanzhong.

Without Guanzhong, the Qin State was in a dangerous situation, and the Qin State lost Bashu and lost its qualification to become a strong country.

What Chu wants is the land of Bashu outside Guanzhong, Bashu is in a basin, and there are four barriers, which is why after Qin occupied Bashu, Chu and Wei all wanted to seize and get a piece of the pie, but they did not succeed.

When the Qin State occupied Bashu, it also wasted a lot of thoughts, at that time, there was Ba and Shu, Qin and Ba destroyed Shu, and the Shu State was armed, and the Ba State was destroyed before and after, so as to unify Bashu, so that Qin State got the granary of Bashu, and at the same time, Qin State moved to the status of princes and powers.

Of course, it was possible to unite Ba State to destroy Shu State so successfully, and there was no movement around, it was because the monarch of Chu State was carrying out the Northern Expedition and wanted to fulfill Chu State's century-old wish to enter the Central Plains, and Qin State, which did not have the land of Bashu at that time, was in front of the powerful Chu State, that is, Wang Ba who stayed in the turtle shell, and there was nothing to fear.

Once the state of Chu also thought about annexing Bashu, but Bashu has always been in a state of union, and it was a very dangerous war to enter Bashu, because there were mountains on all sides.

And the Qin State was able to enter Bashu, that was their luck, and they caught up with a good time, that is, when the Bashu monarchs were not in agreement, so that the Qin State had an opportunity.

But this kind of opportunity only comes once in a hundred years, and there is, basically it has been waiting for a long time, and the Jin State withdrew its troops, the Xiang family withdrew its troops, how did the Chu State fight alone in Bashu?

Bashu is a dangerous place, entering the land of Bashu, and the difficulty of breaking the Hangu Pass is almost the same, and entering Bashu, it is not to reach the plains, but to be surrounded by mountains, and the Shu road is difficult to walk, and more importantly, Qin attaches great importance to this place.

Reinforcements can be sent at any time from Guanzhong to the land of Bashu, and if the state of Chu is fighting, it will be a lonely battle, and it is absolutely impossible for the Qin army to give up this fundamental place that makes them a powerful country.

With the land of Bashu, even if in this battle, the loss of a lot of grain and grass, in a lot of money, except for Bashu, they are not afraid, because Bashu is the most fertile granary in the world, at most one year, you can make Qin once again into the list of powerful countries.

Therefore, the land of Bashu, it is impossible for Qin to give it to Chu, and Chu did not occupy Bashu before, they did not even enter Bashu, and they have been refused to be in the northwest of central Guizhou, and they have stopped.

This Qianzhong is very close to the land of Bashu, bordering Jingbei County, and belongs to the land of Liangzhou in Kyushu.

Qianzhong used to be the territory of Chu, after several wars, the northern territory of Qianzhong reached the hands of Qin, and the west, central, and south were all under the management of the Xiang family, only a small part of the east was in the hands of Chu, Qianzhong was once a large county of Chu, where Chu Difeng eight marquis were stationed here.

Now there is only one Hou left in Qianzhong to fight against the Qin State here, and this Hou Ye is slowly biased towards the Xiang family stationed in Qianzhong.

Because it was very difficult to fight against Qiang Qin by relying only on their eastern part of Qianzhong, and the center of the Chu State's purpose was not in Qianzhong.

Although Qianzhong is large, it is a large area of wasteland, otherwise the Xiang family controls most of Qianzhong, and it is impossible for Huang Xie of Chu State not to say a word.

The Xiang family occupies seventy-two cities in the three counties in the west of the Chu State, these places are all desolate places, although over the years, under the governance of the Xiang family, the development is still good, but compared to the core area of the Chu State, it is still far behind.

And Qianzhong is one of the three counties of the Xiang family, of which there are thirty cities here, and the main military center of the Xiang family is here.

Of course, the reason why the Xiang family has arranged so many military places here is mainly to prevent the Chu State, although the Xiang family respects Chu Jun as the emperor, but the Xiang family does not have much trust in the Chu State, and gradually breaks away from the Chu State.

At this time, what Fan Zuo was thinking about was what he wanted, and he would not clash with the Chu State, and he didn't know what the Chu State wanted, because the envoy of the Chu State did not reveal a trace of information.

At this time, the only things left for Fan Zuo were money and grain and grass, because the territory bordering Wei was basically under the control of the Han and Zhao people.

And the once lost Fencheng and Anyang have already been in the hands of the Wei people, and there is no such thing as asking for it.

And in these two places, the Han people and the Zhao people did not have garrisons, which was negotiated between Wei Wuji and the Zhao people and the Koreans at that time, Anyang and Fencheng have been the land of the Wei people since ancient times, and now they are occupied, and the things are returned to their original owners.

Of course, Wei Wuji also has a sentence, that is, all the land occupied is the land of the Jin Kingdom.

This is also to unite the hearts of the Three Jin Dynasty and jointly destroy Qin, but after Wei Wuji left, Fan Zuo obviously did not value the Three Jin Alliances as much as Wei Wuji.

He valued the interests of the Wei people more.

Of course, Zhang Liang saw all this in his eyes, and he already knew in his heart that this time the three Jin were one, and I was afraid that after Wei Wuji, they would split again.

However, Zhang Liang still hopes to maintain the Three Jin Dynasty, because the next emperor is Han Ran, and Han Ran becomes the emperor, which will inevitably bring more benefits to the Han people and play a greater role in the revival of the Han people.

Then the three of them basically discussed, according to the contract, what the Wei people wanted, as long as they did not violate the interests of Han and Zhao, they were willing to support the Wei people.

Zhang Liang stood up, clenched his fists and said: "The three Jin Dynasty are now one, and Lord Fan should not only care about the interests of the Wei people!" ”

"At the same time, Liang has a word to tell His Majesty the Emperor, that is, the emperor is the emperor of the Jin State, not the emperor of the Wei State, and what he thinks about is not only the affairs of the Wei people, but also the Han people and the Zhao people!" After Zhang Liang finished speaking, he turned around and left.

As an excellent strategist, Zhang Liang wanted to revive the Koreans, but at the same time he also wanted to maintain the existence of the Jin, and he knew that in the land of Kyushu, there was still a giant who was watching the princes of the world.

And it is difficult for the Koreans to compete with this giant on their own, so they need the union of the three jins, and only the union of the three jins can compete with this giant.

For the revival of the Han people, he wanted the Korean people to be strong and prosperous, and the territory of the Korean land to be expanded, and more importantly, what Zhang Liang hoped was that the Han people would not only govern the Korean land, but also govern the Wei land and the Zhao land.

He believed that as long as Han Ran was the emperor, he had the ability to let Han Ran have a certain amount of control over the land of Zhao and Wei outside of Han within ten years.

Let the two kings respect Han Ran as the emperor from their hearts, and after giving him ten years, he can do even better than Wei Wuji, so that the three Jin Dynasty can be unified in the true sense.
