Xiong Huai opened his mouth and asked: "Xianqing, according to your opinion, does Gongzi Yu still have a chance to fight against Gongzi's hooves and form a situation of equal strength in Yue again." ”

Chen Zhen shook his head and said: "Great King, I'm afraid this is very difficult, unless most of the old ministers of the Yue Kingdom are on Gongziyu's side, it will be extremely difficult for Gongziyu to reverse this unfavorable situation." ”

"Of course, if there are forces outside the Yue Kingdom interfering, then this situation is a different matter."

Jing Li interjected: "King, now that our Chu State is almost ready, since Gongzi Yu has fallen into the disadvantage, then why don't we secretly fall into the well and force him to a dead end." ”

"As long as Gongziyu has no way out, then he can only take risks."

Zhao Yu objected: "The great prince thinks that it is impossible to do things that fall into the well, and Yuemeng of Yue Guo is also a rare wise man in the world, and now Yuemeng has come forward to support Gongziyu, if we act in secret, it is inevitable that Yuemeng will see through it." ”

"It's likely to cause problems for our plans to cut off."

Jing Li paused, and then spoke: "Since you can't fall into the well, then it's the icing on the cake." ”

As he spoke, Jing Li arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, please invite the King of Yue to do another expedition before cutting Yue." Now that the strength of Gongzi's hoof has surpassed Gongziyu, if the country is invaded, then Gongzihu will not let go of this good opportunity for meritorious service. ”

"As long as the child's hoof makes another meritorious service, then the advantage of the child's hoof will be more obvious."

Zhao Ju agreed: "King, make Yin's strategy feasible. If we carry out another expedition to Qi, it can not only increase the merit for Gongzi's hoof, but also weaken Qi and Yue at the same time, which is beneficial to our next expedition to Yue and to resist Qi. ”

"Moreover, my Chu State has attacked Qi State again and again over the years, and if it becomes a normal state, it can paralyze other countries."

After Zhao Ju finished speaking, Tang Yu followed: "King, the minister seconded the proposal." ”

Xiong Huai saw that most of the ministers agreed with Qi and said with a smile: "It seems that the widow is really involved with the Qi State." Alternatively, do another one more before the crossing. ”

"The king is wise!"

"King!" After the ministers saluted, Gongsun Yan, who had already figured out the plan of the Chu State to invade Yue from the mouths of the ministers, said: "If the Chu State wants to destroy the Yue, then the three kingdoms of Qi, Zhao and Yan will not be left alone for the time being, it is just a matter of the Qin State, not how the king should deal with it." ”

"The minister heard that Sima Cuo of the Qin State has been building a sailor in Badi all these years, and because of the support of the Yue State, the warship has begun to take shape, if the Qin State sneaks up on the back, the minister is worried that the Qin State will become a disaster for the Chu State."

Xiong Huai's face was solemn when he heard this: "Yes, Sima is wrong, this is exactly what the widow has been worried about." If you wait for the water master of Badi to be completely formed, I am afraid that it will immediately become a confidant of the Chu State, although the widow intends to pull out this nail, but Badi is easy to defend and difficult to attack, how can Zhu Qing teach me? ”

"This..."

The ministers were all embarrassed.

The matter of Badi is not an overnight thing, entering Ba is a matter of three dangers, Chu State took advantage of all kinds of conveniences, it took several generations, only to win the two dangers, the difficulty of entering Ba can be imagined.

Xiong Huai saw that all the ministers were silent, and immediately knew that everyone had no choice.

Then Xiong Huai looked at Gongsun Yan and asked, "Rhino Head, I don't know if you have a way?" ”

Gongsun Yan shook his head and said, "Great King, if the State of Chu intends to compete with the State of Qin for Bashu with all its might, then the minister has a way. However, if the king is ready to cut down Yue, then the minister's method is useless! ”

Xiong Huai smiled dumbly when he heard this, he deserved to be Gongsun Yan!

It seems that Gongsun Yan still has a lot of thoughts about the Qin State!

Although Xiong Huai didn't want to provoke Qin Guo for the time being, he still wanted to hear what Gongsun Yan had to do.

"Dare to ask the rhino head, what is the way?"

Gongsun Yan arched his hand and said: "Great King, since the minister was expelled by the Qin State, he has been thinking about how to break through the Qin Pass and defeat the Qin State. The former minister put his hope on Yiquguo, and this proved to be feasible. Later, after the Qin State captured Bashu, the minister also thought about how to break Bashu. ”

"After some investigation, the minister came to a conclusion that if he attacked the fortification head-on, it would be too difficult, and he could only attack it from behind."

"Behind the scenes?" Jing Cui shook her head and said, "The rhino head's words are too taken for granted. The Yiqu in Guanzhong has been strong for many years, which can become a help, but the two places of Bashu, south and west, are all barbarians. ”

"These barbarian forces, the small ones occupy the mountains as the king, the medium ones are just some villages, and the larger ones are just a county, and they are constantly attacking each other, so they are not able to use them at all."

Gongsun Yan responded: "Zhu Guo has a high opinion, and Yan also thinks so. ”

A glint flashed in Jing Cui's eyes and asked, "What does that rhino head mean?" ”

Gongsun Yan said with a smile: "Since the barbarians are embarrassed, then don't use it, we can also use Chu's own army." ”

As he spoke, Gongsun Yan took out a silk cloth from his arms, and then unfolded it: "Everyone, please see..."

Gongsun Yan spread the silk cloth in the main hall, this is a simple map, very simple, the map is just a simple depiction of the general outline of this part of Bashu.

Gongsun Yan pointed to Badi and said: "This is Badi, the west of Badi is Shudi, the east is Wujun, and the east of Wujun is Yingdu, if Sima Coo's mistake goes down the river from Badi, then Yingdu will be very dangerous." ”

"It's too difficult to attack Badi from Wushire, but if you go in a different direction, from here..."

Gongsun Yan's finger pointed at Qianzhong County and said, "If you send a strange army from Qianzhong County, go all the way to the southwest." ”

Then, Gongsun Yan's fingers moved from Qianzhong County to the south of Badi, and then to the south of Shudi, and said, "The forces on this route are all extremely weak barbarians, if it is not difficult to defeat them, and once they are subdued, not only can they obtain local manpower, but also can obtain a road directly to Badi and even Shudi." ”

"Since the Chu army was able to easily go south to pacify Baiyue a hundred years ago, the territory advanced from Dongting to Cangwu in the south, and now, Taoshui (in Guangxi) has also become the river of Chu. Therefore, the minister thought that with the strength of the Chu army, attacking a plate of scattered sand and barbarians, the force was saved and the effect was great, and once Bashu was taken, it could not only weaken the Qin State, but also remove the threat of the Qin State to Yingdu. ”

"Attacking the country of Vietnam is not only too difficult, but also easy to be interfered by other countries, which is really ······"

Xiong Huai saw Gongsun Yan talking eloquently below, talking about the benefits of Qin.

Looking at the map prepared by Gongsun Yan again, it is obvious that this is not a whim, but a carefully prepared one.

Maybe... This may not have been prepared five days ago, but Gongsun Yan began to prepare after he came to the Chu State.

Xiong Huai stroked his forehead with one hand and said secretly: This is really Gongsun Yan, even if King Qin Huiwen is dead, Gongsun Yan is still the same Gongsun Yan.

The widow knew that if he invited Gongsun Yanlai, something would happen, and sure enough, as soon as he opened his mouth, he wanted to take the building crookedly.

Then, Xiong Huai looked at the ministers again, except for Jing Cui's eyes shining, one or two important ministers were moved, and everyone else was unmoved.

Xiong Huai rejoiced: "Fortunately, the widow set the tone last time, otherwise, if Gongsun Yan had been invited to the first meeting three years ago, maybe he would have been taken to the ditch by Gongsun Yan." ”
