Zhaoju and Chen Zhen glanced at each other again, and they both saw a look of shock in each other's eyes.

Is it worth it that the king of Chu is willing to pay such a heavy price for the Yue Kingdom?

If you can really destroy the Yue Kingdom and swallow the entire Yue Kingdom in one bite, then these costs can still be paid.

I'm afraid to look at Qi Guo, although my heart is big, but my appetite is not enough, and I am forced by various countries to spit out Yan Guo, that is a disaster.

But now the king of Chu is not in a hurry to implement the war of exterminating Yue, and it is feasible to prepare in advance and accumulate strength.

What's more, now the meaning of the King of Chu, the matter of destroying Yue, the King of Chu is determined to win.

As a courtier, he couldn't go against the will of the king of Chu at all.

As long as the King of Chu is not on a whim, rashly destroys Yue, and carefully plans, this matter can definitely be tried.

Although the State of Chu borders many countries, the State of Yue is surrounded by Chu and Qi, and the only one who can rescue the State of Yue is the State of Qi, but the lesson of the State of Qi is not far away, once Chu and Yue are at war, then can the State of Qi think that the State of Chu will destroy the State of Yue?

Even if Qi Guo thought of it, would Qi State be able to break through Huaishui?

Thinking of this, Zhao Ju and Chen Zhen saluted and said, "I am willing to listen to the king's orders." ”

Seeing that the two agreed on their strategic goals, Xiong Huai nodded, and said with a blazing gaze: "Lao Tzu said: The map is more difficult than easy, and it is greater than its detail." The difficult things in the world must be done in the easy, and the big things in the world must be done in the details. ”

"Although the national strength of the Yue State is not as good as that of the Chu State, it is not an easy thing for the Chu State to destroy the Yue State after all. Therefore, the widow intends that from now on, the strategic goal of the Chu State will be fully shifted to the Yue State, and the strategy of friendship with other countries will be adopted to avoid the damage to the strength of our Chu State, and strive to destroy the Yue in a war. ”

Zhao Jujin said: "Great King, if the strategic focus of my Chu State shifts from Qin State to Yue State, then we will have to make another plan for the blockade of Qin State. ”

Xiong Huai was stunned for a moment, the previous plan to blockade the Qin State was to prevent the powerful Qin State from stirring up trouble in the rear of the Chu State, is there anything wrong with this?

Xiong Huai asked, "Why?" ”

Zhao Ju replied: "Great King, there are four countries in the direction where the Qin State can send troops now, namely my Chu State and the Three Jin Dynasty. ”

"If the Qin State attacks our Chu State, there are four roads, namely the Zhengwu Pass in the south of Bashu and the crossing of Korea. The first three roads are full of difficulties, and our Chu State only needs to leave elite troops to defend, and it will be difficult for Qin State to break through. It is more convenient for the Qin State to attack the Chu State, which is the last one, as this time, the main force crosses Korea and attacks our Chu State. ”

"Therefore, as long as we win over Korea, we can avoid another big war with Qin."

Xiong Huai nodded, the Shangluo Ancient Road through Wuguan is tortuous and difficult, and it is really not a good offensive route.

If Chu and Korea form an alliance, then Qin will not be able to cross Korea and send troops to attack Chu, which is very beneficial for Chu to accumulate strength.

Seeing that the King of Chu nodded, Zhao Ju continued:

"Qin State attacked South Korea, and only needed to send troops to Guguan to face the important Korean town of Yiyang, Qin was strong and Han was weak, so South Korea repeatedly took the lead in surrendering to Qin."

"The Qin State attacked the Zhao State, and the feasible route at present is to cross the river, pass through the Lin Land, and attack the west side of the Zhao State."

"And the Qin State attacked the Wei State, in addition to sending troops to Hangu Pass, it could also cross the river. Once the Qin State was completely driven back to Hexi, then the Qin State could only send troops to Guguan. ”

"In this way, if we Chu want to keep South Korea, there is only one choice, send troops to rescue South Korea. However, if the Qin State fights Korea once a year, then our Chu State will have to rescue Korea once a year, which is a waste of the strength of our Chu State. ”

However, if South Korea is not saved, then South Korea may not be able to stand the oppression of the Qin State and take refuge in the Qin State again. In this way, Qin and Han are one, and once we send troops to our Chu State, then the Chu State will have to fight. But even if it is to win the Qin-Han coalition army, it will be a lose-lose situation. ”

Xiong Huai's eyes narrowed, and he said: "What Xianqing means, we will not contribute to the troops this time, so that Zhao and Wei will be defeated." It then left Qin with a route to send troops elsewhere, forcing Qin and Zhao Wei to go to war, and the three kingdoms attrition each other. ”

Zhao Ju arched his hand and said: "The king is exactly like this, as long as a country succeeds, according to the minister's opinion, the first to succeed will be the Zhao State, and after the success of the Zhao State, our Chu State will postpone the attack on Qin, so that the Wei State will not be able to take Fenyin." ”

"Then, as long as Qin sends troops to South Korea, we will send troops to rescue South Korea with great fanfare, forcing Qin to withdraw its troops, if this is the case, South Korea knows that our Chu State will send troops to rescue, and Qin State is no longer a threat to South Korea, then South Korea will inevitably completely fall to our Chu State. Chu and Han became one, and Qin saw that Korea was not available for the time being, and his eyes were either Yiqu or Wei. ”

"As long as Korea is allied with our Chu State, then the Qin State will not be able to send troops to attack our Chu State on a large scale, and even if the Three Jin Dynasty are united, the direction of Wei's troops cannot be our Chu State, so my Chu State will not have to worry about it."

Xiong Huai felt a little uncomfortable.

South Korea is a small country, this time with the Qin State sneak attack on the Chu State, causing great losses, Xiong Huai originally planned to teach South Korea a good lesson, but according to Zhao Ju's strategic plan, then this time can not be heavily punished South Korea, on the contrary, there is a good relationship with South Korea.

It seems that this anger in my heart can only be suppressed.

"Okay, then let's do it, let the Qin State leave a ferry on the east side of the river, and let the Qin State and Zhao Wei fight each other."

"The king is wise." Zhao Ju saluted.

Chen Zhen thought for a long time, and said: "King, if the strategy of our Chu State is turned to the Yue State, then in addition to winning over South Korea, we also need to win over Zhao Yan and the two countries to continue to weaken the Qi State, and the most critical step is that after the truce in the world, our Chu State will once again ally with the Yue State and instigate the Yue State to continue to attack the Qi State. ”

Xiong Huai remembered the content of Zhao Hua's letter and said, "In other words, we will cede most of the Huaibei region of Qi to Yue this time. ”

In the next planning, the Huaibei region was originally a place that was ready to give up, and if it was ceded to the Yue State and let Qi and Yue continue to fight, it would naturally be indispensable.

Chen Zhen affirmed: "King, that's exactly the case. The direction of Yue's attack is either Qi or our Chu State, if most of the Huaibei part of Qi State is ceded to Yue State, then Yue State will have a base to continue to attack Qi State, which can avoid the King of Yue from thinking of our Chu State again when he has no way to go north. ”

Xiong Huai smiled: "Okay, then do it according to this meaning, and cede most of the Huaibei region of Qi State to Yue State." ”

After speaking, Xiong Huai walked back and forth a few times in front of the case.

There are some doubts.

I don't know if the authority of the King of Chu is enough now that he has defeated the State of Qi and the State of Qin?

Now Zhao Hua's suggestion to send troops to attack the Yue State is an opportunity, an opportunity to change the Chu State.

Then Xiong Huai looked at Zhao Ju and Chen Zhen hesitantly, and asked: "The two virtuous people, the widow has a question, please ask the two virtuous people to solve the widow's doubts." ”
