Chapter 63: Qin's Strategy

If it weren't for Sima Cuo's plan, which made Qin have an absolute advantage in terms of geographical advantages, King Qin Huiwen would have some suspicions about Sima Cuo's intentions.

The Qin State and the Chu State made it difficult, and it would only allow the Qi State to benefit.

You must know that in addition to bordering Qin, Chu also borders on Qi, why Chu suddenly formed an alliance with Qi before and set its sights on Qin, all because Qin annexed Bashu.

If it weren't for the annexation of Yan by the Qi State, I am afraid that the battle between Qin and Chu in Yuzhong would have been fought from last year to this year, and there would not necessarily be a result.

Seeing that King Qin Huiwen had some intentions, Zhang Yi continued: "Great King, it is difficult for Qin and Chu to distinguish the winner in a short period of time, and continuing to confront each other with the Chu State will only put Qin and Chu in a situation where both countries are defeated. ”

Besides, Weichen thinks that the way to dominate the world should be easy first and then difficult, and the weak will be the enemy and the strong. Now because of the relationship between the Qi State, the Three Jin and Yan States have formed an alliance with our Qin State, as long as our Qin State and the Three Jin forces send troops to attack the Qi State, the Yan State can be rescued from the hands of the Qi State. ”

"At that time, the Qin State will rely on the prestige of defeating the Qi State, follow the old things of the former Duke of Qi Huan, find an excuse, unite the Three Jin Yan States, raise troops to attack Chu, and will definitely be able to win in one battle. In this way, Qi is weak and Chu is cut, and Qin is a single country, and the hegemony can be achieved. ”

King Qin Huiwen was shocked by Zhang Yi's spirit, and when he heard that the hegemony could be achieved, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he couldn't help but nod. The road of the emperor is too far away, and the king of Qin himself has not even touched the gate of the emperor's industry, but the hegemony is not, the Qin state has entered the gate of the hegemony at this time, and is about to choose this fruit that is about to ripen.

Sima Coo shook his head and said, "King, although what Xiangguo said is reasonable, there needs to be a premise. That is, the state of Chu also needs to send troops to attack Qi, otherwise even if it cedes the country of Ba, it may not be able to ensure that the state of Chu will not have dissenting intentions. ”

"The State of Qi is the great country of today, our Qin State laborers are on an expedition to the State of Qi, even if there are three Jin Dynasty to help, in the face of the State of Qi who is waiting for work, we must go all out. Otherwise, there will be too few troops to put pressure on the country. ”

"Once our five countries send troops to attack Qi, and the Chu State does not move, if the Chu State has any strange ideas, it will be dangerous."

"Before our Qin State captured Bashu, Chu State was eyeing Nanzheng, and now after our Qin State seized Bashu, this situation is even more serious. If the State of Chu sees that our Qin State is empty, and sends troops to attack Nanzheng or from Ba to attack Shu, this must be guarded against. ”

King Qin Huiwen agreed: "Xiangguo's words are reasonable, and it is imperative to cut down Qi, but what Keqing said is not unreasonable. ”

The worries of the King of Qin, or the current Qin State, are worried that the Chu State will send troops to attack during the Great War between the Qin State and the Qi State.

Zhang Yi's eyes rolled and said with a smile: "King, this matter is easy." ”

King Qin Huiwen looked at Zhang Yi and said, "What countermeasures does Xiangguo have?" ”

Zhang Yi replied: "Great King, now our Qin State has not cedered the Ba State, but the Chu State has broken off relations with the Qi State. Although our Qin State is more anxious than Chu State about the war Qi, Chu State is more anxious to get Ba State. ”

"So as long as we send someone to convey a message to the State of Chu, saying that our State of Qin intends to cede the State of Ba, but there is still a doubt in our hearts, that is, whether the State of Chu really wants to break off diplomatic relations with the State of Qi, and the sincerity of the State of Chu to break off relations with the State of Qi is not enough."

"If the State of Chu can transfer its troops to the east to confront the State of Qi, then the State of Qin, under the joy of it, will inevitably cede the State of Ba to the State of Chu."

King Qin Huiwen agreed: "Xiangguo can try this, just say that if the Chu State also sends troops to attack Qi, why not be stingy with the country." ”

Soon after Zhang Yi returned from the Qin Palace, the doorman Feng Xi walked over quickly and said, "Your Majesty, I just got the news from the State of Chu, the State of Chu ordered Yin Zhaoyang to be dead, and the King of Chu wants to abolish the corporal punishment. ”

Zhang Yi was stunned when she heard this.

Wei State Liang.

The news that the king of Chu modified the corporal punishment because of Wei Meiren has been passed on by countless people's mouths, and it has become more and more exaggerated, and it has spread for a while, reaching the ears of King Wei Xiang at a very fast speed.

Just when King Wei Xiang was surprised by the infatuation of King Chu, at this time, another piece of exciting news came out from the State of Chu.

Gongsun Yan of Wei suddenly appeared in Chu and was received by the king of Chu, and then, the king of Chu took Gongsun Yan as his prime minister and came to Wei with a large delegation of envoys to ask questions.

Upon hearing this news, the King of Wei immediately summoned Prime Minister Guotian to come to discuss.

"Xiangguo, I don't know what you think the King of Chu sent Gongsun Yan to come for this time?"

After Tian Xu arrived at the Wei Palace, King Wei Xiang immediately asked.

"The king is worry-free, Gongsun Yan came to Wei this time, according to Weichen's opinion, there may be two things." After Tian Xu bowed, he immediately replied to the King of Wei.

"First, according to Gongsun Yan's consistent behavior, it is nothing more than to contact Wei and let Chu and Wei form an alliance against Qin."

"The second is the recent incident between the King of Chu and Wei Meiren, which has been rumored to be in a boil. Or rather, both of these things are one thing. ”

King Wei Xiang asked, "One thing? ”

"Exactly." Tian Xu nodded and said, "King, is the King of Chu lustful?" ”

King Wei Xiang thought for a while, shook his head and said: "I don't know, but since King Chu succeeded to the throne, there has been no wide selection of beauties to enrich the harem, even if you are lustful, you can control yourself." ”

Tian Xu continued to ask: "Does the king think that the king of Chu values feelings?" ”

King Wei Xiang immediately shook his head and objected: "King Chu saw that he was not a person who valued feelings, if King Chu really valued feelings, how could he cut off my sister's nose because of someone else's words." If the king of Chu remembers the old love, he will not easily belittle Zheng Sleeve. ”

Tian Xu then asked, "Great King, is the King of Chu mediocre?" ”

King Wei Xiang was stunned and said: "The king of Chu attacked Qin and won many battles, how can he be said to be mediocre." ”

Hearing this, Tian Xu saluted to King Wei Xiang and said: "What the king said is very true, the state of Chu is neither mediocre and lustful, nor is it a heavy old relationship, with the current situation of Wei Meiren, how can the king of Chu be hungry and choose to eat, and he is fortunate to have a woman whose nose has been cut off. ”

"Could it be that all the news circulating outside is fake?" King Wei Xiang exclaimed.

"King, it doesn't matter whether this news is true or false now, what matters is the attitude that Chu is going to spread now, which is what our Wei State should pay attention to."

King Wei Xiang bowed slightly: "Xiangguo means that after Gongsun Yan left Wei, he brought the message to Chu that our Wei State wanted to make friends with Chu State, which is Chu State showing favor to us." ”

Tian Xu said: "The king, according to Weichen's opinion, this is exactly the case. ”

"So what should we do about the rhino head's visit on behalf of the Chu State this time?" King Wei Xiang continued to ask.
