Chapter 120: Feud is a battle
At this moment, on the east mountain next to Yan Yun, a soldier of the Chu State stared at the ocean, and the corpses of the soldiers and civilians in the city all made his heart sad, and in the blink of an eye, at the moment when his face was full of tears, the face of King Chu Xiang appeared in our field of vision.
It turned out that at this moment, King Chu Xiang was dressed as a soldier, and he escaped by luck, with tears of remorse.
King Chu Xiang said angrily: "The damned Qin people, they actually used such a means to treat the people of my Yan Yun like grass and trees, and the soldiers of my Chu State like mud slag, such a move to lose their conscience is really rare in ancient and modern times, unprecedented" The King of Chu clenched his fists and hit directly on the soil sac, and the right hand of the King of Blood Cong slowly seeped out.
Jiao Zuo on the side was about to step forward to dissuade him, but was stopped by Song Yu: "My king is repentant, in order to be prosperous in the future, such a catharsis, you and I are inconvenient to stop it"
After Jiao Zuo listened, he looked at the king's dynamics, and he didn't say anything but knelt down, because at this time, King Chuxiang turned around and passed by everyone.
Song Yu and the soldiers knelt on the ground in turn, and then the king of Chu said solemnly: "All the things that happened today, the widow will not be held accountable, and Huang Xie will be notified separately."
"Report! The great king, Sima Cuo of Qin, sent troops from Longxi to capture Qianzhong County, and the general prayed that the king could cede Shangyong and the north of the Han River, so as to ease the Qin army's attack.
At this time, Song Yu on the side had something to say: "Song Yu, do you have any ideas, but it doesn't hurt to say it"
Song Yu replied: "My king, Song Yu feels that it is no longer a wise choice to fight hard with the enemy at the moment, because the enemy has now gained an absolute advantage, so at this time we should seek to rise by delaying the army."
"Yes, the previous personality of this king, maybe all your thoughts will be lost! Now this king is bent on repentance, if the Chu State does not rise again, it may really be a dead country, and now the retreat is the advance, the widow feels good, and at the moment, the vassal states have not thought of helping my Chu State, they are all watching the jokes of the widows, and now in the world, it seems that the matter of Chu and Qin is the same, what does Jiao Zuo think"
At that moment, his eyes turned to another courtier: "King, Jiao Zuo feels that he must not only make peace with the Qin people at the moment, but also reconcile, and the compensation for land cession needs to be realized."
"Tell me why you have a specific idea"
"Great King, if the princes have disputes today, if the Qin State does not deal with it well, and then the princes use troops against the Chu State, the Chu State is in crisis, but the Qin State only wants to encroach on the land of the Chu State at the moment, and also hopes to be able to stabilize it, now the Qin people get what they want, as long as we cooperate well and form an alliance with the Qin people, then the Qin people will get the benefits, and at the same time, the princes of the world will not take the opportunity to attack, the Chu State will lose the capital, and it will take some time to recover"
At this time, Jiao Zuo's remarks, Wang was remorseful in his heart, he didn't know what to say, he was still about to cut Jiao Zuo just now, but now Jiao Zuo's actions made the King of Chu speechless, Wang got up slowly, and no one could understand the pain in his heart.
It was as if an arm had been broken, and the pain was incomparable, and Yundu, the prosperous capital of Chu for more than a hundred years, was destroyed because he did not listen to the words of his loyal ministers.
In fact, the current King Xiang also understands that the reason why the Chu State has been unrighteous recently, the key problem is that the struggle between the upper echelons of the Chu people makes it possible for foreign enemies to take advantage of the situation, when King Huai was captured by the Qin people, the new king should always be careful of the Qin people, due to a kind of temptation psychology, so that the Qin people, in the way of climbing the threshold benefit, gradually began to use troops against the Chu State.
King Huai was captured by the Qin people, and it was okay to die in a foreign land, but at a critical time, the Chu State did not protest diplomatically, nor did it need to fight with soldiers.
When he was calm, then the king of Chu Xiang said: "Quickly send scouts to convey the will of the widow, let Zhaoyang gather a large army to stabilize the four realms, and then send Chen Chen and Tian Jing to envoy to the Qin State, and cut the land and pay compensation to repair it, in order to plan for the rise of the Chu State in the future."
The king's decision is the national policy, and it is really hard to say what the fate of the state of Chu will be in the future, but at the moment, the only thing that the king of Chu Xiang has to do is to brake quietly, and it may be disadvantageous to continue to fight the enemy in addition to this, so it is very important to prevent the sneak attack of the vassal states at the moment.
The horse team of the Chu State came to Wu Anjun, and Bai Qi looked at the envoy team of the Chu State at a glance, and it was clear that the Chu State was definitely easing at the moment, it was nothing more than the compensation for the land cution, and what else could there be.
The Qin army's big tent, the envoy came to see him, and Bai Qi treated him politely.
Chen Chen said: "I can't imagine that as a victorious country, the Qin State treats us so politely, it is really unexpected."
Bai Qi replied: "The way of soldiers is the way of soldiers, the number of rites is the number of rites, and there should be something."
Chen Chen smiled, and then the track and field on the side paid homage to Wu Anjun.
"Oh, it's track and field?"
"Exactly"
"The story of horse racing is world-famous"
"Wu Anjun laughed, it was Tian Ji, not this track and field"
"Oh, that's right, if there is such a talent in the Chu State, it will not lose so vulnerable today" The exchange of young hours instantly ignited an indelible strong smell of gunpowder.
Of course, in Bai Qi's view, the humiliation of the victor to the loser is exactly like this, since he came to the peace talks and prayed for mercy from the subordinates of the Qin State, how could such a humiliation not be endured, the two envoys of the Chu State smiled, expecting the Qin State to raise their noble hands.
At this time, seeing the sincerity of the two, Bai Qi didn't want to embarrass the envoy of Chu again, so he discussed the matter in the account.
The two sides sat in the tent, and then Wu Anjun said in vain: "The two envoys came to my army tent, it's not so simple to come and see."
"Wu Anjun clearly sees that now the Qin State Iron Cavalry has been crisscrossing the western part of my Chu State, and it is ...... at the moment."
"Nonsense, the West is the land of Bashu, when is it the place of your Chu State? Your Chu State built the capital in Yanyun, which was originally against the mandate of heaven, and now we Qin people are just doing the right thing for heaven."
After Bai Qi's words, the special envoy Chen Chen said: "It is true that our Chu people are too ignorant and go against the way of heaven, and now there are Shangyong and Han Shuibei Yidi, all of which will be dedicated to the Qin State, I don't know if the two countries can be reconciled?" ”
"Is that true?"
"No jokes, follow the map"
Everything in front of him shocked Bai Qi, who thought that the Chu people wanted to exchange less land for Yan Yun, but he didn't expect that the Chu State at this time not only did not resist the actions of the Qin State, but also added more land to the Qin people, so that for the Qin people, it can be regarded as a land north of the Han River of the Chu State without spending a single soldier.
In fact, Bai Qi knows very well that the current comparison between Qin and Chu is a wrestling between the great powers, which can be regarded as the end of the point, otherwise if it continues to fight hard, it will not be beneficial to Qin and Chu, and it should be accepted if it is good.
So Bai Qi decided to accept the proposal, although it had not yet been approved by King Zhaoxiang, but Bai Qi felt that it would be okay, and King Bai Qi would definitely agree with Bai Qi's idea.
Perhaps, from the perspective of war, Bai Qi is indeed a rare top military genius, but from a political point of view, Bai Qi is a courtier who does not understand the king at all.
Otherwise, it will accumulate over time, it will cause a lot of trouble, and even the disaster of killing may not be said, of course, in the end, Bai Qi does not have a good ending, everything determines the ending from the beginning, it seems to be exactly that.
In the palace of the king of Qin, the king of Zhaoxiang looked at a stone statue and did not say anything for a long time, at this time Fan Ju came and came to the king, and Fan Ju knelt down: "Knock to see my king"
The king was silent, then looked at the stone statue calmly, and said: "Prime Minister, the widow wants to ask, is the king you are talking about it or the widow?" ”
"Of course my king! I am the only wise king of Great Qin"
"But in the Qin State, some people actually treat the widow as a stone statue everywhere and don't pay attention to it at all."
Fan Ju knew the king's words, because he had also heard about Bai Qi's unauthorized actions, and in order to dispel the king's thoughts, Fan Ju began to elaborate: "Can my king allow Fan Ju to speak?" ”
"Say"
"It may be a bit long, but I hope my king will listen patiently"
"Say, how long will the widow listen, you know, the widow likes to listen to the prime minister's nagging" Wang turned his head to look at Fan Ju.
"King, Fan Ju feels that Wu Anjun's decision at the moment is not wrong, but before the king's decision, he made a decision first, this is to desecrate the majesty of my king, it is indeed not advisable, and it should be immediately arrested and decisively eradicated."
Wang looked at Fan Ju: "Go on"
"But if you take into account the long term, Wu Anjun is indeed a genius who can fight well, and Wu Anjun can't do anything except fight, the rest is very loyal, my king might as well simply use it if he can, and wait for the whole world to be swallowed up by the Qin people, or after laying a good foundation, then get rid of Wu Anjun, the king has many reasons to kill his courtiers, and as a courtier, once he disobeys the king's order, it is a capital crime, what does my king think"
Fan Ju's meaning has been arranged for the end of Bai Qi, of course, the king also knows that the smart Fan Ju is different from Bai Qi, he will give the final decision to the king, so that it fully shows that the mind of playing politics and playing military is different, and it is no wonder that throughout the ages, the ending of the generals will be far worse than that of Wenchen.
One is fighting all day long, planning, and layout, and one is considering all aspects of the details every day, so the start is different, and the natural ending will be different, Bai Qi actually feels in his heart that loyal ministers don't need to be flattered, as long as they sit upright, there is no need to waste that time to explain anything, as long as it is good for the Qin State and beneficial to the king.
King Zhaoxiang touched the stone statue and said to himself from time to time: "The widow lets him live or die, and the widow has the final say."
In a blink of an eye, he came to Bai Qi's camp, and the late flying pigeon passed the book, and Bai Qi was ready, but what Bai Qi never expected was that at the moment when he made his decision, there were already scouts who passed the book to the king early, so that he slowly stepped into the road of no return.
At this time, Wang Di came and gave advice, Wang Di felt that the current Chu State was hit hard, and the Qin State had gained a lot of benefits, but on the other hand, that is, since the annexation of the Qi State, Yan's domestic economy and military and other aspects have grown in an increasing trend, so that the strength of the Yan State is an inevitable trend, and the future opponent of the Qin State is likely to be the Yan State.
And Bai Qi felt that the annexation of Qi by Yan State could not be digested in the short term, but Qin State encroached on Chu State, which was different, with the support of Chu State, and a large area of Chu State would be assimilated quickly, so since then, Qin State has risen more steadily.
But on the other hand, the Yan State devoured the Qi State, as long as there was a counter-force to support it in the short term, the efforts of the Yan State would be ruined, and Le Yi would not be reused, and it was very simple to dig and demolish the foundation of the Yan State.
The words came to this, and Bai Qi asked Wang Jian and Chang Wenjun to come to discuss the matter.
Then the two appeared, knelt in front of Wu Anjun, Bai Qi looked at Wang Jian and Chang Wenjun, and said, "Now I give you two an important task."
