Chapter 913: Ten Years of Planning

After Chen Zhen left, Xiong Huai fell into deep thought.

The news of Qi just now made him, who had been hesitating, see the next goal.

Previously, Xiong Huai had always been worried about the change of the law, one was worried that the opposition of Chu was too large, the second was worried that after the implementation of the reform, it would be difficult for the forces supporting the change to grow quickly, and the third was worried that the forces at home and abroad would unite.

For this reason, Xiong Huai decided to transfer the domestic contradictions, divert the attention of the Chinese people through war, and also give the law-changing forces in the country the opportunity to make contributions and promote their growth through war. Of course, it is more important to interrupt the tentacles of other countries reaching out to the state of Chu through foreign wars.

It's just that this method of transferring contradictions cannot be used lightly, and once it is used, it must be successful and ensure 100% victory.

Otherwise, once the war is defeated, internal and external troubles will be concentrated together, and it will be fatal.

Everything is prepared, so Xiong Huai had to plan early.

The countries bordering the state of Chu include five countries: Qin, Han, Wei, Qi, and Song, and the state of Chu needs to choose one of them as a target.

For these five countries, Xiong Huai first excluded the Qin State, and the Qin State could be defeated, but under the strong Guanyi of the Qin State, it was difficult for the Chu State to obtain benefits from the Qin State, there was no benefit, and it was empty in the name of victory, and then it was self-destructive to reward the ministers, this kind of loss-making thing could not be done.

Then, Xiong Huai excluded Song and Han again.

Although Song and Han are definitely not opponents of Chu, these two countries will definitely not be willing to be opponents of Chu and fight hard with Chu. Once the Chu State attacked these two countries, they would definitely call friends and ask all countries to send troops to fight against the Chu State.

In this way, if the Chu State loses a big loss, and exhausting all the strength to win them, it will not only deplete the national strength of the Chu State, but also will not damage the powerful Qin, Wei and Qi Three Kingdoms. It will also make them more hostile to Chu because of the prestige of Chu and more actively carry out anti-Chu movements. In this way, instead of alleviating the external contradictions of the Chu State, it will also intensify the external crisis.

This is the wrong war at the wrong time and in the wrong place, and it is not desirable.

After the five countries excluded the three countries, only Qi and Wei remained.

Originally, Xiong Huai was more inclined to Wei.

Although Xiong Huai knew from King Yan that the Qi State was about to fall, Xiong Huai did not know when the Qi State was about to fall. In the current situation, as soon as the king of Qi ascended the throne, he broke the Yan Kingdom, and the country was greatly revitalized, and there was no half-weakened appearance.

Moreover, the Yan State has just lost 120,000 troops, and the national strength has been greatly damaged.

What's more, Le Yi, who destroyed Qi, has not yet emerged, and he doesn't know where to nest in that pimple.

If this is the case, Xiong Huai naturally chooses a Wei State that is not weak in national strength and is still slightly inferior to Qi State. After all, persimmons still have to be picked up and pinched.

What's more, Wei is located in the middle of the world, and it is surrounded by enemies on all sides, making it an easy target to attack. As long as the alliance of Qi, Wei and Qin is dismantled, and then the state of Chu pulls one or two countries to attack the state of Wei with all its might, with the strength of the state of Wei, it will definitely be exhausted, and there is a chance that it will not be able to stop it.

However, this time the news from within the Qi State made Xiong Huai change his mind.

Although Xiong Huai didn't know how the historical Qi State collapsed, how could the powerful Qi State be defeated by the Yan State in just a few months, so that it almost perished.

However, now there is a contradiction between the Qi royal land and the Tian clan from the Qi State, although this contradiction is just emerging now, and it does not affect the overall situation of the Qi State.

However, if this goes on for a long time, the relationship between the Qi Wangdi and the Tian clan will deteriorate even more, which will definitely shake the foundation of the Qi State.

In this regard, Xiong Huai was deeply touched that the strength of the Qi Guotian clan was no worse than the strength of the Chu State Office.

The Chu State Office held most of the power of the Chu State, and the Chu State Ling Yin was all a member of the Office for hundreds of years (except for the middle one Wu Qi), and its strength can be seen.

If it weren't for Qu Yuan charging in front of the Chu State this time, and Qu Shi being the wings in the back, Xiong Huai himself might not dare to go up.

The state of Chu is like this, the state of Qi is slightly better than the state of Chu, at least the Xiangguo of the state of Qi is not a person of the Tian family most of the time.

However, locally and in the army, the strength of the Tian clan was no worse than that of the Chu State Office.

At that time, Tian Xiangzi of the Tian clan was in order to control the Qi country, but he sent dozens of brothers and many Tian clans to various parts of the Qi country to be the city lord, and the Tian family spread out all over the Qi country. Subsequently, the Tian family replaced Qi, and in order to prevent the Lu family from being square, the Qi State has always let the Tian people control the Qi army. Until now, the first general of the Qi military is also Tian Kuangzhang.

Although the Jixia School Palace is famous in the world, its foundation in the Qi State is too shallow after all, and now the Tian family is still the foundation of the Qi State.

If Qi wants to change the status quo, it will have to be done for decades, and there will definitely be twists and turns during the period.

And this twist and turn is what Xiong Huai needs.

It's just that Xiong Huai is worried that this twist and turn may not come soon.

However, now that the State of Qi is plotting with other countries to plot against the State of Chu, the State of Chu is too busy to take care of itself, at this time, it is useless for the turmoil of the State of Qi to come.

However, the so-called one who does not seek a lifetime is not enough to plan for a while, Chu and other countries will eventually have a day of reconciliation, Xiong Huai hopes that when that day comes, the opportunity of Qi will also come.

So... Hehe···

Xiong Huai smiled.

He has been in the Chu State for so many years, what Qi Wangdi is thinking about now, what Qi Wangdi wants and what he is worried about, he knows it clearly, after all, he himself has come over the years like this.

Now, what he has to do is to enhance the confidence of Qi Wangdi, dispel Qi Wangdi's concerns, let Qi Wangdi unswervingly implement his own ideas, think that he is right, and then go to the dark on the road, and make the not yet obvious rift between Qi Wang and Tian make it obvious.

At that time, the state of Chu will be able to make a move against the state of Qi.

Attacking a rebellious army with a detached army can only be said to be evenly divided.

However, with the intention of calculating or not, the chances of Chu winning have increased greatly, but this is not enough, if you add the armies of other countries, bully the few with the more, and bully the weak with the strong, this is a sure victory.

After that, Xiong Huai once again considered it all, and after no major mistakes and omissions, he officially made up his mind.

All the next goals of the Chu State are on the Qi State, as long as the direction is good, it will be successful.

Now that the direction has been determined, the specific operation details are up to the monarch and the ministers to act together.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai smiled: "Presumably, the widowed Ling Yin will definitely be interested in the fat of Qi Guo." ”

Next.

Xiong Huai summoned five people, including Ling Yin Zhaoju, Zuo Tu Qu Yuan, Zuo Yin Zhaochang, Zuo Sima Gongsun Yan, and Assassin Shi Ling Chen Zhen, to the palace.

"Zhuqing, the State of Qi joined Wei and Zhao, and broke the State of Yan, the country was greatly boosted, and the widow was deeply worried. However, not long ago, news came from the Qi Kingdom, and it was said that there were some contradictions between the Qi Wangdi and the Tian clan. Therefore, the widow intends to decide to target the Qi State and weaken the Qi State. ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other.

Since the marriage between Zhao and Qi not long ago, and the surrender of Yan to Qi, they are worried about whether Qi will unite with other countries to attack Chu, but now the king of Chu is planning to weaken Qi because of a matter of chasing wind and shadows.

At this time, as soon as King Chu's voice fell, everyone glanced at the embarrassed Chen Zhen, and then looked at Ling Yin Zhaoju one after another.
