1513. The promise of Shusun Tong

After Shusun Tong entered Xiang City, he immediately went to visit the Xiang family.

After the Xiang family learned that the Qi State was coming, they immediately met with them, because the Xiang family's situation was very bad now, they used to have the support of the Chu State, and they were a martial force, so they had always posed a threat to the Qin State.

Now, because of the strength of the Qi State, the Chu State and the Qin State have become extremely friendly, and the Chu State has sent people to lobby them many times to make peace with the Qin State, and they are not allowed to fight the autumn wind in the sphere of influence of the Qin State.

But in addition to their own farming, most of the resources of the Xiang family are from the autumn wind of the Qin State, although the Chu State gives them resources, but how much can the Chu State give them?

Although nominally they are still a feudal state of the Chu State, in essence they are already an independent force and can negotiate freely, but because of some forms, they have to have such a relationship with the Chu State.

Although they also cultivated the land themselves, in this desolate land, the land they cultivated could not support such a huge population, and they still had enmity with the Qin State, so they naturally robbed the Qin people.

Of course, sometimes, when the Qin people sent a large number of garrisons in the south, they would also turn around and rob some of the nobles of the Chu State, and the Chu State also turned a blind eye to this.

After all, in the eyes of the people of Chu, although the Xiang family has broken away, it is actually still a force in Chu, and their struggle is still infighting.

And all this is because the friendship between Qin and Chu has changed, and Huang Xie has ordered many times to let the Xiang family give up the hatred of the Qin State, and how can the Xiang family forget the family hatred? Forget Qin Guo's hateful face?

They vetoed Huang Xie's request, because of the veto of Huang Xie's request, the state of Chu sent 200,000 troops to be stationed on the edge of the Xiang family's sphere of influence, and also during this time, the state of Qin also sent 200,000.

At this time, it was the ultimatum time that Huang Xie gave the Xiang family, he gave the Xiang family a year to think about it, but once the Xiang family refused, they sent troops to destroy the Xiang family.

In fact, in Huang Xie's heart, he didn't want to destroy the Xiang family, although the Xiang family was disobedient, but in fact it was a powerful combat force, during these times, the Xiang family was on a united front with the Chu State, and it also allowed the Chu State to avoid the attack of the Qin State.

At the time of the war against Qin, the Xiang family also contributed the most, and they thought that after the Qi State was resolved, the Xiang family would inevitably become the most powerful assistant of the Chu State to deal with the Qin State.

So Huang Xie gave the Xiang family a year to think about it, let him think about it, most of the people of the Xiang family are people with tendons, how could they give up this hatred?

What is the purpose of the Xiang family's occupation of this place? Its purpose is to destroy Qin, and now let them give up the ideal of destroying Qin, how can they be willing? And Huang Xie still wanted them to cooperate with the Qin State, which was even more impossible.

What's more, their Xiang family is also called the king, although your Chu State is called the emperor, but we are also a prince and king, will we listen to your orders?

But the head of the Xiang family was forced by Qin Chu's pressure, and he was very uncomfortable at this time, but the people of the Xiang family below did not let him compromise at all, once he compromised, he knew that the people below could mutiny at any time, and he could also become a sinner of the Xiang family, so it can be said that the head of the Xiang family at this time, 'Xiang Liang', was very uncomfortable.

Now he is still a highly respected person, once he makes a decision that is different from the thoughts of his clansmen, he will not be highly respected, and he will become a sinner, his little nephew, Xiang Yu will not let himself go.

And at this time, when he heard that the people of Qi were coming, he immediately realized that this was an opportunity, and of course he also knew the intentions of Qi Guo, to dominate the world, and wanted their Xiang family to become forwards.

But they are not interested in the intentions of the Qi State, the clansmen of their family only want to destroy Qin, they only want revenge, as long as they slaughter the Ying family.

Shusun Tong entered the Xiang family's base camp, which was an ordinary house, without a palace, not very luxurious, and very frugal.

Xiang Liang looked at the person in front of him: "Your Excellency, is it the envoy of the Qi State?" ”

Shusun Tong took out a document and handed it to Xiang Liang, Xiang Liang looked at it: "It turned out to be Shu Sun Tong of Qi State, Uncle Sun!" ”

"King Xiang, the purpose of my visit this time, presumably King Xiang should also know that the current situation of the Xiang family is not very optimistic, but we can help the Xiang family!" Shusun Tong looked at Xiang Liang and said.

"Once you refuse Huang Xie's request of Chu State, you will inevitably encounter the blows of Qin State and Chu State, but my Great Qi Empire can help you, and our Great Qi Empire can help you destroy Qi, and at the same time, I also promise that the Win clan people of Qi State will be handed over to you to deal with!" Shusun Tong looked at Xiang Liang and said.

"You can refuse the request of the Chu State, once Huang Xie attacks you, the million-strong division of my Chu State will go south to the Chu Land!"

"At the same time, the army of our Chu State will take the road of Mobei and march to Xiaoguan!"

"It will definitely be able to resolve the crisis of Chu State!" Shusun Tong looked at Xiang Liang and said.

"After your Qi country dominates the world, what should my Xiang family do?" Xiang Liang looked at his uncle and asked.

When Qin Chu was destroyed, the Xiang family would inevitably not be able to exist alone, and his Xiang family actually wanted to stand out from this situation, but they were suppressed by Qin Chu.

Qin can't be destroyed, so how can we talk about hegemony?

This can indeed destroy Qin, but if it attracts a strong Qi, I'm afraid that his Xiang family will not be able to survive alone.

Shusun Tong looked at Xiang Liang and said: "Still guarding here, but King Xiang can't be the king, but the prince!" Shusun Tong looked at Xiang Liang and said.

Xiang Liang was stunned: "Qi can let us exist?" ”

Shusun Tong nodded: "But you have to be a subordinate to me!" ”

For the Xiang family, Qi Xiaobai thought about being included in the sphere of influence, but later, he didn't think about it, the south of the Xiang family is the Southern Barbarian Wilderness, and with them guarding there, they can save military expenses and defend against the Southern Barbarians.

Moreover, the territory of the Xiang family is a large area of wasteland, and there are mountains or something, there are no resources, and the area of farming is very small, and it is a poor land.

And the existence of the Xiang family survived by fighting the autumn wind of the Qin State and the assistance of the Chu State.

If Qin and Chu were destroyed, if the Qi State did not support them, it would be difficult for them to survive, after all, their population was not small, and there were hundreds of thousands of troops to support.

And the location of the Xiang family is an important passage into the Nanban, the town of Chu guards a side of the Nanban, and the Xiang family blocks some Nanban.

In the future, Qi Guo needs a person to guard here and deal with Nanban, and Qi Xiaobai plans to let the Xiang family do this.

Of course, he will also send a son to keep an eye on the Xiang family, of course, this soldier depends on the Xiang family's soldiers.

Therefore, Qi Xiaobai allowed the Xiang family to exist, of course, on the premise of being a vassal to the Great Qi Empire, and at the same time sending a hostage to the capital of the Great Qi Empire.

And Uncle Sun Tong's words really shocked Xiang Liang, he thought that Qin Chu was destroyed, and the Xiang family would also be relocated to Yingqiu.
