Chapter 113: The Song State rebelled against Qi
Huaishui Yue National Camp.
Because Wei asked for support from Chu and Yue, the king of Yue, as the leader of the alliance, invited the general of Chu and the envoys of Wei to his big tent.
On behalf of the Wei State, Zhao Hua asked the Yue State: "Great King, the Wei State wanted to cross the Pushui not long ago, but was defeated miserably because of the lack of ships, and the King of Wei sent his ministers to the Great King and the State of Chu for help, hoping that the Great King could send a naval division to support our Wei State. ”
"Now Pushui's Qi State Naval Division has been emptied by Qi State, as long as the water divisions of Yue and Chu arrive, Wei State will be able to break through Pushui, once there is a gap in Qi's defense line, then Qi State will not be far from defeat."
The minister Gongshi Yu objected: "Great King, now that our Yue and Chu countries are fighting fiercely with the water division of the Qi State in Huaishui, where can we transfer the water division, this matter is not feasible." ”
"Moreover, most of the sailors of the Qi State in Pushui have been transferred, and if the Wei State wants to cross the river, where can the sailors be used, even the civilian boats for transportation are enough."
Tang Mo touched his beard and said: "What the doctor said is true, now that the sailors of my Chu and Yue countries have been unable to break through the Huaishui for a long time, the fact that the sailors are dispatched is inappropriate, if it is a civilian ship, my Chu State can support one or two." ”
Seeing that Tang Wu had agreed to support the Wei national ships on behalf of the Chu State, the King of Yue could not be stingy as the leader of the alliance, and immediately said: "Yes, if it is a civilian ship, the widow can also come up with a lot of support for the Wei State." ”
Zhao Li's face changed, hesitated, and reluctantly said, "Thank you to the king in this way." ”
Tang Mo said with a smile: "Although the naval warships cannot support the Wei State, my Chu State is willing to support the Wei State with two hundred large civilian ships and one million arrows to help the Wei State defeat Qi." ”
When the king of Yue heard this, he said: "My Yue country can support Wei with 400 large civilian ships and 2 million arrows to help Wei break through Qi." ”
Zhao Hua thanked him: "Thank you, thank you, the general." ”
That night, in the Chu military camp, Tang Wu was standing on a high platform in the camp and looking up at the starry sky.
Soon, Zhao Slip came over and said with a smile: "Si is defeated and Yaxing, I don't know if I can gain anything today?" ”
Tang Mo retracted his gaze and said meaningfully: "Yes, and it's not small, the northern land of Qi and Huai has been in the bag." ”
Zhao was taken aback, and Chi asked: "Today, you forced the king of Yue to take out four hundred large civilian ships in the Yue camp, for the Huaibei land of the Qi country?" ”
Tang Yu nodded: "Yes." Now that 50,000 sailors of the Yue Kingdom have crossed the sea to attack Qi, and they are fighting fiercely with the sailors of the Qi State on the Huai River, I am afraid that the ships of the Yue Kingdom are about to run out. ”
"Today, the king of Yue once again took out four hundred large civilian ships, with my understanding of the Yue country, I am afraid that the ships in the Yue country have been exhausted, and the supply of the Yue country will be extremely reluctant, once we Chu and Yue defeat the Qi country, then the next battle is by their own means."
"And the Yue Kingdom, which is difficult to supply, is not the opponent of my Chu army at all, and when the time comes, most of the Huaibei Land of the Qi State will definitely be owned by my Chu State."
Zhao Slip was stunned when he heard this, and paced back and forth in front of Tang Yu for a long time before he said: "I don't know what Si Defeat thinks is King Yue and his people?" ”
Tang Yu said: "King Yue is greedy for fame and profit, and he forgets the big benefit when he sees small profits, and this is the case with my Chu State for the name of the alliance leader." Without taking into account the reputation of the Yue Kingdom in the Central Plains, he wanted to establish Lu Qi with a new personality, which was the confusion of the Yue King. ”
"There is chaos in the Yue country, and the king of Yue actually destroys the whole country, this is the tyranny of the king of Yue."
"The king of Yue does not believe in the ministers of the country, and abandons the sages in the country, but believes you, a foreign envoy, this is the king of Yue, who does not know people."
"The Yue State has such a Yue King, so it has been fighting with my Chu State for more than ten years, but it has never taken advantage."
Zhao slipped and said: "What Si Defeat said is not bad, and I think so too, so please Si Defeat and Yue Guo to share Huaibei." ”
Tang Yu glanced at Zhao Slip with deep meaning, Zhao Slip's plan is not small, and he can't even look down on Huaibei of Qi State, so Zhao Slip has taken a fancy to Yue Country.
Seeing the implicit smile on Zhaoli's face, Tang was confused and laughed: "Yes." ”
Three days later, Tang Wu, the king of Yue, saw six hundred civilian ships leave, and after the fleet disappeared from view, Tang Wu said to the king of Yue: "King, the next thing is for our two sailors to blockade Huaishui and prevent the Qi sailors from reinforcing the Pushui Qi army." ”
King Yue nodded.
Song.
King Kang of Song, who had already made up his mind to betray the State of Qi, sat down in danger and asked Gongsun Yan, who was the envoy to the State of Song, "The head of the rhino has come from afar, and I don't know how to teach the widow. ”
Gongsun Yan looked King Song Kang up and down for a long time, and was amazed.
King Song Kang looked himself up and down, found that there was no problem with his clothes, and asked curiously: "Rhino head, is there anything wrong with the widow?" ”
Gongsun Yan shook his head and said: "There is no problem with the king's clothes, the reason why the minister carefully looked at the king is to remember the king, this is probably the last time the minister will see the king." ”
King Song Kang's eyes were horizontal, and he said coldly: "Is there any discomfort with the rhino head, there is a witch doctor in the widow's palace who can diagnose and treat you." ”
"King Xie is very loving, and the minister is not sick." Gongsun Yan shook his head and said: "But the king is in trouble, after the minister leaves the Song Kingdom this time, I am afraid that the king will have the worry of destroying the country, and the minister will not see the king again." ”
King Song Kang sneered: "Why did the rhino head say this, now that the Song Kingdom is thriving, why worry about destroying the country?" ”
Gongsun Yan asked: "I don't know what the king thinks the Qi and Song coalition forces will win or lose against the Zhao, Wei, Chu, Yueyan, and Five Kingdoms coalition forces?" ”
King Song Kang said as a matter of course: "Of course, it's my Qi and Song coalition forces." ”
If Qi and Song are defeated, Gongsun Yan will not have to lobby the Song State, only the Song State will be valuable, and the Song State will be able to get more benefits from the coalition forces.
Gongsun Yan nodded, with a deeply appreciative expression, and said: "The king, the minister also thinks that this is the case, so the king's country will definitely be destroyed by the Qi country." ”
"Now that the State of Qi has annexed the State of Yan, it is the first power in the world, if it defeats the five countries and two armies, I don't know if the king thinks that the next target of the State of Qi is the two countries of Zhao and Wei, or the State of Song."
Song Kang Wang was silent.
This is an obvious problem, the strength of each country of Zhao and Wei is stronger than that of Song, and the two countries are allies, while Song is weak and isolated.
Gongsun Yan continued: "If the Song State is unfortunately defeated, I don't know if the king thinks that the Five Nations Alliance will take the opportunity to destroy the Song Dynasty, or take the opportunity to destroy Qi?" ”
King Song Kang remained silent.
Gongsun Yan's identity is Chu Xiang and Wei Xiang, the meaning of this sentence is self-evident, once Qi and Song are defeated, Chu Wei will definitely take the Song State. Moreover, the difficulty of destroying the Song State and the difficulty of destroying the Qi State are not at the same level at all.
Gongsun Yan continued: "If we continue to hold on, with the national strength of the Song State, how long can we hold out when we have been fighting against the Wei State for a year. ”
King Song Kang had nothing to say, a large part of the reason why King Song Kang summoned Gongsun Yan was because the Song State lacked food, and if it continued to hold on, the Song State could not stand it.
After a long time, King Song Kang asked Gongsun Yan: "I don't know why Mr. taught the widow." ”
Gongsun Yan went straight to the point: "Please ask the king to form an alliance with the coalition army and counterattack the Qi country, so that not only can you avoid the worry of destroying the country, but also carve up the Qi country and strengthen the Song country. ”
King Song Kang sighed and saluted Gongsun Yan, "I am willing to listen to Mr. Command." ”
