After the ministers arrived, Xiong Huai sighed: "There is a war in the north, my Chu country is located in the south, and the widow wants to make some benefits, but the problem is beyond the reach of the whip." ”

Chen Zhen said: "Great King, although Yan Zhao is far away, this matter has a great impact on our Chu State, and the disadvantages far outweigh the benefits. ”

Xiong Huai nodded, for the state of Chu, the best thing now is to maintain the status quo, the state of Chu to form an alliance with other countries, and then isolate the two countries of Qin and Qi.

If this situation of peaceful coexistence is maintained for a few years, then, Xiong Huai is confident that the state of Chu will become a behemoth, unlike the four countries of the Three Jin and Qi countries, there is land in the state of Chu, and there is no need to spend great effort to grab the land of other countries.

Unfortunately, peace is always short-lived, and after only a few months, war breaks out as a matter of course.

Chen Zhen continued: "Zhao Guo's move is to focus on Zhongshan State, so he will inevitably relax his vigilance against the blockade of Qin State by various countries. ”

Regardless of the outcome of this battle, the Qin State had several options, supporting Yan Zhao to attack Zhongshan and taking the opportunity to make friends with Yan Zhao, or he could also take advantage of the great war to take the opportunity to attack Zhao Guolin and open a gap to the east on the east side of the river. Or it is also possible to send troops to Korea to force Korea to fall to Qin. ”

Xiong Huai Zhengse said: "In other words, it is very likely that the Qin State will take the opportunity to break the blockade chain of the widows. ”

Chen Zhen nodded.

"Zhongqing, if the Qin State attacks Zhao Han, how should our Chu State respond."

Zhao Ju replied: "The Great King Sanjin is the key to our Chu State's blockade of Qin, and now we can't lose Zhao State, if Qin State attacks Zhao, then we will join Han Wei to rescue Zhao State." Similarly, the same is true for South Korea, where troops can only be sent to the rescue. ”

Seeing that the King of Chu agreed, Zhao Ju sighed and said, "The Great King, in fact, it is not only the Qin State, but also the Qi State. ”

"Qi State borders the Three Kingdoms of Yanzhao and Zhongshan at the same time, in the past, the Qi State destroyed the Yan State, and the Zhongshan State was also very afraid, but because the Zhongshan State took advantage of the fire to rob and got too many benefits from the Yan State, so the Zhongshan Kingdom had been neutral before. Now, Yan Zhao's move is likely to completely force Zhongshan to Qi State, and when Zhongshan State and Qi State form an alliance, then Qi State will quickly restore its previous influence. ”

"Great King, compared to the alliance between Qi and Zhongshan, the minister is not very worried, and the minister should be more careful that Qi supports Yan Zhao to attack Zhongshan, and takes the opportunity to form an alliance with Yan Zhao, and the three kingdoms jointly divide Zhongshan Kingdom."

Xiong Huai gasped when he heard this, if this happened, needless to say, the Chu State would definitely lose the Zhao State.

This is not the most serious, what is even more terrifying is that the Qin State also intervened as a victim, and when the time came, the four countries of Qin, Qi, Yan and Zhao formed an alliance, which...

Jing Li hesitated: "The situation that Sima said should not happen, if the Qi State also attacks Zhongshan, then the Zhongshan State will definitely not be saved, but is the Qi State worried about the revenge of the Yan State?" ”

Zhao Yu agreed: "What Ling Yin said is good, Qi State is the enemy of destroying the country for Yan State, even if Qi State is not worried about Yan State revenge, but looking at Yan King's current strategy for Yan State, it doesn't look like he will forget the hatred of destroying the country, and Yan State should not agree to an alliance with Qi State." ”

Chen Zhen said: "The king, although what Ling Yin and Sikong said is good, but it must not be guarded against, according to the minister's opinion, it is necessary to contain the Qi State and make the Qi State weak." ”

Xiong Huai agreed: "Yes, for now, there are too few opportunities for Qi to form an alliance with Yan Zhao, but it must not be guarded against." ”

"Spread the order of the widow, send envoys to Yan and Zhao to announce the support of Chu for the actions of the two countries, and send envoys to Han and Wei to ask the two countries to be vigilant against the movements of Qin."

"Another order is sent to the general Zhaohua, let him go to the Yue country, ask the Yue country to send troops to attack Qi, if the Yue country is unwilling to send troops, then ask the Yue country to help the widow, and the widow wants to crusade against the Qi country."

Then, Xiong Huai said to Jing Cui: "Zhuguo, this time, Lao Xianqing will go to Huaibei again, and the widow will transfer 50,000 troops from Yingdu, and the troops of Huainan and Huaibei will be requisitioned, a total of 150,000 troops, stationed in Huaibei. The main thing is to contain the Qi country, once the Qi country changes, or the Yue country is ready to send troops, then send troops to attack Qi. ”

Jing Cui saluted and said, "Weichen takes the order." ”

In the end, Xiong Huai said to Zhaoju: "Sima, you have to sit in Wancheng, once the Qin State sends troops to attack Han, Qing can immediately mobilize the troops of Deng Yewan and the three places to strictly prevent the Qin State from attacking Han and attacking Zhao." ”

"The herald of Hanzhong Zhaorat Fang Chengjing is lacking in Guangling Ejun, and requires that vigilance be strengthened to strictly prevent sneak attacks by other countries."

"Yui."

Sinzheng, South Korea.

Han Wangcang asked his uncle and Gongzhong: "Two virtuous people, now that Yan and Zhao are attacking Zhongshan, what should we do in South Korea?" ”

Now that Chu and Han have formed an alliance, with the east wind of Chu, Uncle Gong overwhelmed Gong Zhong as he wished, and successfully ascended to the post of Han Xiang.

Uncle Chunfeng said proudly: "King, Han and Zhao have been friends for generations, Han and Yan have been allies for many years, and King Yan has lived in South Korea for many years, so of course we in South Korea support Yan Zhao Zhongshan Kingdom." ”

"But now Zhao Guo not only has no time to take care of Qin State, but it is very likely that he has hooked up with Qin State, so in order to guard against Qin State, according to the opinion of the minister, please ask the king to strengthen the defense in Yiyang."

"In addition, the first day of October is the New Year of Chu, and this day is the auspicious day, please send an envoy to Chu now, and say that my Korean princess will arrive in Yingdu before October."

King Han agreed: "What Uncle said is very true, if you follow the original plan and set off after December, the weather will be a little cold. ”

Gongzhong pursed his lips when he heard this, looked at his uncle's smiling face, and scolded secretly: "Shameless! ”

"Since you are so afraid of the sneak attack of the Qin State, why don't you make friends with the Qin State?"

Wei State Liang.

Tian Xu said to the King of Wei: "King, for this Zhao State's action, it is better for my Wei State to stand by and watch, although the growth of Zhao State is not good for our Wei State, but at present, my Wei State is still the first to recuperate." ”

King Wei nodded.

No matter how much war is raging outside, as long as Wei can recuperate for a while

Wu Cheng of the Yue Kingdom.

Zhao Slip visited Yue again as an envoy, but unlike the last time as an envoy of Wei, this time Zhao Slip came to Wucheng as an envoy of Chu.

Gongziyu saw Zhao slipping from afar, and laughed: "Sir, I haven't seen you for a few months, but your demeanor is still the same!" ”

Seeing that it was Gongzi Yu, the eldest son of King Yue, who greeted him outside the city, Zhao Slip came to Gongzi Yu, looked at Gongzi Yu with a red face, and arched his hand: "Where, where, I haven't seen Gongzi for a few months, and Gongzi's demeanor is better than in the past!" ”

Gongziyu laughed when he heard this.

Since the Yue State opened some border checkpoints to the Chu State, the merchants between Chu and the Yue have been in constant contact.

And Gongziyu, as the person in charge of contacting the Chu State, coupled with the good relationship with Ejun, has gained a lot during this time.

What's more, because his younger brother Gongzi did not seize this opportunity at the first time, he was one step behind, and the difference of one step was far away.

Gongziyu now saw the messenger from the Chu State, Zhao Slip, and suddenly pleasing a lot of eyes.
