Gongsun Yan replied, "Wei State." ”

This answer did not come as a surprise to Xionghuai.

Gongsun Yan continued: "Great King, Wei and Han are extremely close to the Qin State, and they are extremely vulnerable to the coercion of the Qin State, and they have become very unreliable. ”

"But because of this, Wei and Han are also extremely wary of Qin."

"Before Weichen came to Chu, the King of Wei was very worried about this, and Gu sent Weichen to form an alliance with Chu."

Xiong Huai was pleasantly surprised: "So the Wei State intends to form an alliance with our Chu State. ”

If Wei agrees to form an alliance with Chu, then the worry that Chu will not be able to open the situation is not a problem at all.

Gongsun Yan replied, "Great King, that's exactly the case. Although the State of Qi was strong, it was still defeated several times in the face of the State of Chu. Qin is different, once there is something in the Kwantung region, it can send troops to Hangu Pass to attack the countries of the Kwantung region, and Wei and Han are the first to bear the brunt every time. Once things go wrong, they will collect troops and defend themselves, and it will be difficult for countries to punish Qin. ”

"Therefore, all the countries in the world are very worried about the situation that the Qin State is constantly growing stronger and difficult to be weakened."

The ministers have all understood what Gongsun Yan said, and in the past, the six countries conspired against Qin, isn't it because of this situation.

Gongsun Yan continued: "The king, I heard that the king is revising the corporal punishment because of the matter of Wei Meiren, is there such a thing?" ”

This matter has spread all over the Chu State, and maybe the areas closer to the Chu State have also heard the rumors.

Xiong Huai nodded and said, "Yes, but there is such a thing." ”

Gongsun Yanxi said: "Great King, this is very good, Chu Wei originally intended to form an alliance, and now with the matter of Wei Meiren, then the situation of Chu Wei's alliance can barely have a reasonable reason, which can dispel the suspicions of other countries except Qin." ”

Xiong Huai was surprised: "Surprised." ”

It seems that the city of Chu should be suspicious now, how can other countries be surprised.

Seeing the look of the King of Chu, Gongsun Yan explained: "Great King, the current general trend in the world is still to attack the Qi State. ”

Xiong Huai suddenly was led astray by Gongsun Yan.

All countries joined forces to attack Chu, and that was also after the defeat of the Qi State.

The most important thing now is to let the Qin State fight with the Qi State, and after the defeat of the Qi State, it will be the Chu State.

Gongsun Yan continued: "Only the alliance between the Wei State and the Chu State is only more critical for the Qin State, but it still has not burned the eyebrows. Next, our Chu State will also win over Zhao State and obtain the support of Zhao State. For the Zhao State, as long as the rumors spread in the Zhao State, it was said that the Wei State was dissatisfied with the refusal of the Zhao State to join forces to attack Yan. The prince of Yan was very dissatisfied with his situation, and wrote a blood letter to the king of Qin, asking the king of Qin to send troops to rescue him from the state of Zhao. ”

"After Zhao Guo heard these two rumors, even if he didn't think so, he would leave a concern in his heart, and he would be wary of Qin State."

"As long as the State of Zhao has scruples about the State of Qin, then it will naturally support the State of Chu, which has no direct stake in the State of Zhao, to join the alliance."

Xiong Huai bowed slightly, with Wei as the beginning, then it was not difficult for Zhao Guo to agree.

"Xianqing, what about Yan and Han?"

Now it is the alliance of the five countries, and only with the consent of Zhao and Wei, it is difficult to predict whether the state of Chu can join the alliance.

Especially South Korea, it was too miserable to be pitted by the Chu State, and the King of Han was extremely hostile to the Chu State.

Gongsun Yan touched his snow-white beard and said, "King, for Korea, Weichen knows very well. ”

For Gongsun Yan's words, everyone knows everything.

A few years ago, during the Great War between Qin and Han, Gongsun Yan had always been the prime minister of South Korea, commanding the main Korean force to fight against the Qin army.

So Gongsun Yan must know Korea very well.

Xiong Huai asked: "In this case, what can Xianqing do to South Korea?" ”

Gongsun Yan replied: "Great King, how to persuade Korea to agree to the Chu State to join the alliance still needs the help of one person. ”

Xiong Huai quickly found a person's name from his memory, and asked thoughtfully, "I don't know who Xianqing is talking about?" ”

Gongsun Yan replied, "Uncle Han can help Chu State. ”

Gongsun Yan's recommended candidates coincide with the people in Xiong Huai's heart.

In fact, it is not difficult to guess, Gongsun is close to the Chu State, why was Korea pitted by the Chu State in the past, Gongsun Yan and Uncle Gongsun are the culprits.

Gongsun and the current Xiangguo Gongzhong of Korea are both important ministers of the King of Han.

At the beginning of the succession of King Han Xuanhui to the throne in the past, he wanted to appoint Gongsun and Gongzhong luxury to preside over the government at the same time, but he was dissuaded by the six secretaries of the Jin State from ruling the government, and then the uncle was defeated by Gongzhong luxury and has been subservient to Gongzhong extravagance.

Uncle Gong has always been dissatisfied with this situation.

Because Gong Zhong has the support of King Han, he has not been able to turn over.

But Uncle Gong still has a high right to speak in South Korea.

Gongsun Yan said: "Great King, the whole world knows that Uncle Gong and Gong Zhong are not in agreement, Gong Zhong is extravagant and close to Qin, and Uncle is close to Chu. If the current country can help Uncle Gong overwhelm Gong Zhongxuan, then it must be the State of Chu. ”

"As long as the king sends someone to tell his uncle that the state of Chu will help him get the position of the prime minister of Korea, then the uncle will definitely persuade the king of Han."

Xiong Huai shook his head and said, "Xianqing, even if Uncle Gong helps, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince King Han." ”

Gongsun Yan smiled when he heard this: "Great King, it doesn't matter if Uncle Han can convince King Han or not, and our Chu State doesn't really want to attack Qi State with an alliance with other countries, just to force Qin State to send troops to attack Qi." ”

"So as long as Zhao and Wei agree, then the Qin State will not be able to sit still, and if Korea swings between Qin and Chu again, then I am afraid that the Qin State will immediately make a move and will send troops before the Chu State officially joins the alliance."

Xiong Huai was stunned and laughed at himself: "It's the widow who is confused and forgets the original purpose." ”

Gongsun Yan said: "Great King, forming an alliance with the Three Jin Dynasty is an extremely beneficial thing for the Chu State. But now the overall situation is to force Qi to withdraw its troops from Yan. ”

"And because of this strength, it is either the Qin State or the Chu State, but the action of Zhao Guoguo's son-in-law as the King of Yan has put the Chu State in a disadvantageous position. If there is a big war between Chu and Qi, Qin will inevitably attack the rear of Chu. Even if the Qin State does not attack the Chu State, once the Yan State is restored, with the relationship between the prince and the King of Qin, and the distance between the Yan State and Qin Chu, it is very likely that the Chu State will make a wedding dress for the Qin State. ”

"Rather than working in vain, it is better to let the Qin State send troops to attack the Qi State, and even if the Qin State can harvest the Yan State, it will also form a deep enmity with the Qi State. And we, the Chu State, as long as we lend a helping hand to the Qi State, we can reap the friendship of the Qi State. ”

"When the time comes, Qi and Chu will be allied again, and the Sanjin will also lose the pressure to continue attacking Qi because of Qi's withdrawal from Yan. If the Three Jin Dynasty do not attack Qi, it will be difficult for the Qin State to support it alone, so it will naturally withdraw its troops. ”

"In this way, because the Qi State is weakened, it will inevitably take the lead of the Chu State, and with the support of the Wei State, the Chu State will naturally be able to sit back and relax."

"If our Chu State is gaining the support of any country in Han and Zhao, we can form an advantage over the Qin State, and then force other countries to join forces to attack Qin, and we will definitely be able to defeat it and achieve the great cause of overlordship."
