Goujian, the king of Yue, retreated to Huiji Mountain, and then issued an order to the three armies: "All my father's brothers and the people of Limin, as long as there is someone who can help me to defeat the state of Wu, I will jointly manage the political affairs of the country of Yue with him." “

The doctor said: "Your Majesty, Weichen heard that merchants prepare leather goods in summer and fine arrowroot cloth in winter. Prepare a boat when there is a drought and a car when there is a lot of water, which is intended to come in handy when these things are lacking. Even if they are not harassed by their neighbors, they must seek ministers and samurai, and they must be selected to make offerings. Just like the Demoiselle, the rain has already fallen and it will be too late to compile it. Now that you have retreated to Huiji Mountain, is it too late to seek good ministers? “

Gou Jian said: "When I heard your point, what does it mean that it is too late? Gou Jian took Wen Chong's hand and discussed it with him. Finally, it was decided to let Wen Chong go to Wu to negotiate peace.

At the beginning, the ambitious Gou Jian had no reinforcements outside, no grain and grass inside, and Gou Jian planned to surrender to Wu under the planning of the strategist Fan Li and Wen Chong, and was worried that Wu Wangfu would not agree.

Wen Chong said: "This is easy to do, flies don't bite seamless eggs, and there are many scumbags in Wu State, and I learned that Wu Guo's deputy general Bo Xi has always been at odds with Wu Zixu, and he is afraid that Wu Zixu's credit will be too great, and he will surpass himself." Besides, Boxi is a greedy and lustful villain, we can use bribery to win him over, and lay a nail for Yue Guo in Wu, and he will help us speak if we can use him in the future. “

Gou Jian also panicked, so he sent Wen Chong to see Boxi with jewelry, jade and beauties. Bo happily accepted the bribe, and went to Wu Wangfucha alone overnight to say good things for Gou Jian. After listening to Boxi's words, the husband felt reasonable, so he decided to agree to Gou Jian's request.

As everyone knows, the last thing in the world to listen to is a director, if someone wants to kill you, what they say to you is justified, if you listen to it, you will enter the buried pit, and you will never get out again!

The next day, Boxi brought Wen Chong to see his husband in person, and after Boxi went in, he first asked Wen Chong to wait outside. Bo Xi once again communicated with Fucha and told him the general situation of Yue Guo's salvation and peace, and Fucha deliberately lost his temper: "Yue Guo and I don't share the same hatred, how can we say peace and make peace!" ”

Seeking peace is naturally like this, it takes some gunpowder smell to make the other party give in, Bo Xi then said: "The king still remembers what General Sun Wu said, 'soldiers, murder weapons, can be used gradually but not for a long time', this Yue country is enough to be low-voiced, this Yue Wang can be your vassal, the princess is your concubine, just leave a wisp of incense!" Those gold, silver and jewels of the Yue Kingdom, let the King of Yue search for you, just like raising a dog to help you guard the Yue Kingdom. ”

"Moreover, if you pardon Gou Jian, your virtues will spread throughout the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and then you will dominate the world, and your neighbors will feel that your kindness will not be wiped out, and they will naturally surrender without a fight. If we force too quickly, this Gou Jian dog jumps off the wall in a hurry, and takes the people of Yue to rise up, and then I Wu Guo will not talk about the loss of money and money, and the people will also suffer a lot of losses, and the fish will die and the net will break! When we fight against Chu again, Chu knows that we will eliminate all evil, and we will also fight against the water and die with us, won't we regret it? ”

"If this Gou Jian is pardoned, the name of King Wu Rende will be praised all over the world, and this will always be the Yue people who throw the jade jewelry into the river, and bring 5,000 Yue soldiers to die with us! Instead of killing the Yue people, it is better to get the Yue Country! Back then, the state of Chu turned defeat into victory, and this case is still hot! ”

Wu Wangfucha let this kind of culture in, and the entry of the type of literature knelt and climbed in, and the husband said: "Then Gou Jian promised to be my vassal, I don't know if you want to go to Wu with me?" ”

Wen Chong replied: "Since you have become a vassal, of course you are willing to serve on your side!" ”

At this time, Wu Zixu heard about this incident, and ran out in a hurry to dissuade him, he said: "King, if you don't destroy the Yue Kingdom today, you will have the opportunity to beat the water dog, and it will be too late to regret it in the future." Gou Jian is also considered to be virtuous, and with the assistance of good ministers such as Fan Li and Wen Chong, the threat of Wu State will be great in the future. “

Seeing that her husband almost ignored her, Wu Zixu continued: "Your Majesty, this suggestion is really not good! Wu and Yue are enemies for generations, often fighting, and surrounded by three rivers, the people of Yue have nowhere to move. If there is a country of Wu, there will be no country, and if there is a country of Yue, there will be no country of Wu, and this situation will not be changed. ”

"I heard that the people of the mountains are accustomed to live on the mountains, and those who live by the water are accustomed to live by the water. The countries of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, even if we defeat them, cannot live there for a long time, because it is not suitable; And the Yue country, if we defeat them, we will be able to live there for a long time and take their ships. This is a favorable opportunity to destroy the Yue Kingdom, and it must not be lost. Your Majesty, you must destroy the Yue Kingdom! It's too late to regret it later. ”“

At this time, the husband's mind has been decided, it is Ma Di, this person has come to my side, I hold it in the palm of my hand, life and death are not Lao Tzu's words, if this also condenses his rebellion, then the first consideration should be your high-ranking Wu Zixu!

"They have become a vassal state of our Wu country, what is the difference between this and the destruction of the country?" The husband dropped this sentence and left!

Wu Zixu had no choice but to sigh and retreat. After coming out, he met the doctor Wang Sunxiong, and said to him: "The Yue Kingdom will be born in 10 years, and the Wu Kingdom will be destroyed in 20 years!" “

Wu Wangfucha no longer listened to Wu Zixu's advice, and did not plan to continue to destroy the Yue Kingdom, but only asked Gou Jian to go to the Wu State to be his subordinate and serve him, and then withdrew his troops and returned to China. After that, the second step was implemented to pick up the relationship between Wu Zixu and Wu Wangfucha!

Goujian, the king of Yue, led 5,000 remnants of the army to retreat to Huiji, showing weakness to the outside and seeking peace with Wu, and taking the strategy of gathering for ten years internally, enriching the country and strengthening the army. Gou Jian tried his courage by lying on his back, endured humiliation, and served the country with his body, in the hope of the resurgence of the country.

Fan Li returned home and looked at the Yue Nu who fell asleep after washing, Fan Li also felt sleepy, and went back to his house to fall asleep. This sleep will be the next day. While still washing, I listened to the noise outside the door. As soon as they looked at it, they saw where the pavilion chief was arguing with a few old people in the township.

Seeing Fan Li come out, the pavilion chief pulled Fan Li is chatter. After listening to it for a long time, they understood that they had made trouble with the bandits in the mountains near Huiji, and these old people caught a few bandits, and they didn't know whether to send them to the officials to get a reward or kill them directly.

"What kind of official, now that the Yue Kingdom is about to be destroyed, then there is time to manage these bird affairs, and they will be executed directly, let's gather the strength of a township to take Xishan directly, the silver money that Xishan has saved for so many years of looting does not need to be much more than those rewards." As soon as these words fell, everyone's eyes lit up. It's a great idea!

The pavilion chief made it difficult: "But the wounds in our village are now injured, and the combat strength is less than half of the original, although it is the West Mountain, it is also seriously damaged, but after all, the mountain is in a geographical advantage, how can we be good." Fan Li looked at the pavilion chief staring at himself without blinking, and Fan Li instantly understood. All right! I said so! It's such a simple thing, you old guys still ran to my door and made a noise, so they were waiting for me here!
