King Qin Huiwen waited in the Qin Palace for a long time, and gradually became a little impatient, only to see Zhang Yi coming over slowly.

After Zhang Yi sat down, without waiting for Zhang Yi to speak, King Qin Huiwen said bluntly:

"Xiangguo is too late."

As soon as Zhang Yi heard that the King of Qin was dissatisfied, he hurriedly apologized again and said: "The king, when the minister learned that the front line was lost and the son was killed in battle, he was furious in his heart, and he thought all the way about how to defeat the state of Chu and avenge the blood and hatred for the words of the prince. ”

Qin Huiwen Wang Fangcai was also thinking about how to defeat the Chu State, and now Zhang Yi had the same thoughts as himself, and couldn't help but say: "The widow is also thinking about how to break Chu and take revenge, but he has no clue, and I don't know what countermeasures Xiangguo has." ”

Zhang Yi replied: "Your Majesty, the minister has been thinking about it for a long time, and he only came up with a solution. ”

King Qin Huiwen perked up and hurriedly asked, "I don't know what to do?" ”

Zhang Yi said: "Great King, such as today's countries, all have entered the war, the east of the Chu State and the Zhao, Wei and Yue three kingdoms, and the Qi and Song coalition forces broke out in a big war, the west alone faced our Qin and Han coalition army, even the King of Chu personally went into battle, but the strength of the Chu State is still inferior to my Qin and Han coalition army, it can be seen that the Chu State has exhausted its strength, this is the opportunity of my Qin State." ”

King Qin Huiwen nodded and said: "The widow also knows, the Chu State is fighting with Qi and Song in the east, and the Qin State is fighting in the west, and the lack of troops of the King of Chu has already shown that the Chu State has no spare strength, so what does Xiangguo think our Qin State should do." ”

Zhang Yi said: "Weichen's method is to ask the king to follow the example of the first monarch Huigong, personally conquer the Chu State, send the soldiers in the country, and gather all the warriors over the age of 14 and under the age of 60 in the country, so that they can be..."

Before Zhang Yi's words were finished, King Qin Huiwen choked on saliva and let out a series of coughing sounds, interrupting Zhang Yi's words.

The soldiers of the country... Pro-conquest of Chu State···

The widow Xiangguo is crazy.

Seeing that King Qin looked at him with a strange look, Zhang Yi's face did not change, and explained: "King, now Zhao and Wei have betrayed us and joined forces with Chu Yue to attack the State of Qi. ”

"Although the Qi State is strong, even with the help of the Song State, in the face of the Four-Power Alliance, defeat is only a matter of time, if the Qi State is unfortunate and the Song State betrays the Qi State, then the time for the defeat of the Qi State will be more rapid."

"Wei has been thinking about the land west of our river all these years, and the world has joined forces to resist Qin, and Wei has been the initiating country. And a few years ago, in order to have all the land west of the river, our Qin State also sent troops to attack the Zhao State and seized the land west of the Hexi State of the Zhao State. Therefore, although Zhao and Wei formed an alliance with our country under the strong pressure of our Qin State, they have always been dissatisfied with our Qin State in their hearts, and when they formed an alliance with our country, they were at odds with Chu State. ”

"Now he is openly betraying the Qin State and forming an alliance with the Chu State. Once the Qi State is defeated, then the Chu State will inevitably gather Zhao and Wei to attack Qin in the west, and the Zhao and Wei countries will definitely respond to the call of the Chu State. ”

Seeing that King Qin was deep in thought, Zhang Yi paused, and continued:

"Therefore, if we want to defeat the Chu State, we must rush before the defeat of the Qi State, fight a quick battle, and defeat the Chu State in one fell swoop."

"Now that the King of Chu has come to the battlefield in person, even if those feudal lords of the Chu State are unwilling to fight with our Qin State, they will send people to help the King of Chu, so our Qin State also needs to take into account the reinforcements of this part of the Chu State."

"And if our Qin State wants to defeat the Chu State and capture Hanzhong, we must cross the Danshui. However, the Chu army has a strong water division, and if our army wants to cross the Danshui, it must have 400,000 troops, and if the Chu State refuses to defend the river, it will need 600,000 troops. ”

Zhang Yi saw that King Qin's face was ugly, and said cautiously:

"The king of Chu has arrived, if the king does not come, the world will definitely look down on the king, and my Qin army will also be discouraged."

"Besides, if the whole country's soldiers are handed over to Gongzi's hands, the minister thinks that with Gongzi's ability, I am afraid that he will not be able to do it, and the king will go to the top."

"It's just that in this way, the minister is a little careful, worried that his ally South Korea will betray us, and even more worried that Yiqu will sneak attack us."

After Zhang Yi finished speaking, he bowed and said: "The minister is stupid, please check the king." ”

King Qin Huiwen was silent for a long time after Zhang Yi bowed down, and said to Zhang Yi: "Xiangguo, please rise, few people know what Qing wants." ”

After Zhang Yi straightened up, King Qin Huiwen bowed to Zhang Yi and thanked: "If there is no Xiangguo, the widow will mislead the country, and the matter of increasing troops to attack Chu will not be mentioned again." ”

Seeing King Qin saluting, Zhang Yi immediately bowed and said, "The minister is afraid." ”

After King Qin Huiwen straightened up, he said with a sad face: "The widow's brother died fighting for the Qin State and the widow, but the Qin State and the widow can't avenge it, the widow's heart is like a knife, the six gods are restless, and they can't take revenge, but if they ask for peace with the Chu State on this, the widow can't do it either, please teach me Xiangguo." ”

Zhang Yi said: "Great King, for today's plan, it is impossible to defeat the Chu State, and what our Qin State can do is to weaken Chu." ”

King Qin Huiwen asked, "How to make the state of Chu weak." ”

Zhang Yi replied: "King, there are two kinds of weak strategies: internal weak and external cut. The so-called strategy of internal weakness is to exhaust the state of Chu and consume the national strength of the state of Chu, while the strategy of external cutting is to divide the allies of the state of Chu and carry out horizontal activities. ”

King Qin Huiwen calmed down, regained his mood and said, "I would like to hear about it." ”

"King, the news we got from the Qi State is that the 200,000 troops of the Jingcui Department of the Chu State and the 100,000 troops of the Tang Yu Department are attacking the Qi and Song Songs, plus the more than 200,000 troops of the King of Chu, then the Chu State needs to transport grain to the front line with a total of 500,000 troops in the west and the east, and this is not counting the other Chu troops left in various places, although the Chu State has a lot of food, it is difficult to last."

"Therefore, our Qin State still needs to confront the Chu State, on the one hand, to give the Qi State confidence, delay the defeat time of the Qi State, and on the other hand, continue to consume the national strength of the Chu State. This is that for every penny of grain consumed by my Qin State, then the Chu State will consume three points. ”

"In addition, please give an order to ask the guest secretary Sima Cuo and Gan Mao to bluff in Nanzheng and Bashu, create a sign that our Qin State will attack Chu State on a large scale and avenge Gongzihua, and induce Chu State to continue to increase troops to the front line and squeeze the limit of Chu's national strength."

King Qin Huiwen sneered: "Okay, the widow agrees with Xiangguo's policy, in order to express the determination of my Qin State, the widow personally mourns the widow's brother in the Qin Palace today, and then personally conquers the Chu State, and swears to the world, if you don't break Chu, the widow swears not to return to the capital." ”

Zhang Yi said: "If the king is personally recruited, it will definitely boost the morale of my Qin army, and the state of Chu is suspicious and does not dare to withdraw easily." ”

King Qin Huiwen then asked, "Then what is the strategy of external cutting?" ”

Zhang Yi replied: "Great King, if the general trend has fallen on the Chu State today, so the Chu State will fight on two fronts without fear, and it is extremely difficult to break up the alliance of the Chu State at present, but the change of spring and autumn rotation day and night is the unchanging way, and the change of the general trend of the world is just after the defeat of the Qi State." ”

King Qin Huiwen bowed slightly, and repeated in a low voice: "After the defeat of the Qi State. ”
