As soon as Xiong Huai's words came out, many feudal monarchs in the hall were suddenly stunned.

The army that recruits the feudal monarch often encounters these three problems: late, few, and unavailable, which is the stubborn disease of the Chu State, and the problem that Xiong Huai hates the most.

At this time, Ye Gong sensed the chill in the hall and immediately spoke: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, the feudal lords of all places have always been loyal to the country, and this will definitely not happen."

Since the king's edict, the ministers have not left Yingdu, they immediately ordered to recruit all the troops in the fiefdom to come to Danxi to hold on, until a few days ago, all the troops arrived in Danxi, and there was no late, less, or no-show. ”

Xiong Huai nodded, he believed that most of the feudal monarchs were as Ye Gong said, without a trace of delay.

After all, this area of Danxi has always been an important place in the Chu State, and it is a gathering place for many feudal monarchs, and these feudal monarchs will not joke about their fiefdoms.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai smiled and said: "That's good, that's good, as long as my Chu country is united, with the power of my Chu country, just six countries, how can I help Chu country?" ”

As he spoke, Xiong Huai laughed loudly: "With the help of Qing and others, this Yue country is swallowed by few people." ”

Seeing the smile of the King of Chu, the feudal monarchs were immediately relieved, and then bowed to each other and said: "I am willing to serve the king and stop the enemy army." ”

Xiong Huai's face showed a heartfelt joy when he heard this, then he got up, stretched out a hand, raised his hand weakly, and said with a smile: "Zhuqing, please get up, if you can have the service of Zhuqing, the widow will be able to sit back and relax." ”

After everyone got up, the atmosphere in the hall was relaxed, and the whole hall instantly revealed the scene of the monarch and the ministers getting along with each other.

Next.

Xiong Huai, accompanied by Ye Gong and others, was planning to inspect Danshui after inspecting the defense of Xishui.

At this time, Chen Zhen came to the bow of the ship with a heavy face, and then walked to Xiong Huai's side and said, "King, it's not good, there is news from Luoyi that the countries have reached an agreement and each has returned to its own country." ”

When everyone heard the news, their faces sank.

Obviously, as the kings of the nations return to their own countries, the armies of the nations will soon come to attack Chu.

That is, the war began.

At this time, Xiong Huai showed a sneer on his face and said disdainfully: "The widow thought that they would reach an agreement after discussing it for ten days and a half months, but they didn't want to, they actually stayed in Luoyi for nearly a month, which is considered a widow overestimating them." ”

As soon as Xiong Huai's voice fell, the picture of the monarch of the six countries fighting for Chu appeared in everyone's minds, and his face was red and his mouth was foaming.

Thinking of this, I am not only laughing, but also relieved.

Obviously, the countries have been discussing for a month, and there must be many contradictions, and as long as we grasp this, we can divide the countries.

Everyone thought that Ejun, who had already gone to Yan to bribe and lobby, and remembered that the king of Chu was preparing to separate the envoys of various countries, and then looked at the defense facilities on the east bank of Xishui, and their hearts were suddenly full of confidence.

This battle was not as difficult as imagined.

After Xiong Huai saw that everyone's faces had regained their confidence, he asked Chen Zhen: "Chen Qing, have you ever found out how countries can resolve their contradictions and reach an agreement, and have you ever found out the direction in which countries sent troops to attack Chu?" ”

After Xiong Huai finished speaking, Ye Gong and the others all looked at Chen Zhen, eager to know where the main direction of attack of each country was.

"Back to the king, these ministers have already investigated through the ministers of various countries." Chen Zhen nodded, and then responded:

"Previously, Qin and Qi were at a stalemate, but as Qin ceded Shaoliang Hancheng and other places to Wei, Wei fell to Qin. However, after that, the State of Qi and the State of Song still insisted on sending troops to Huaibei. As a result, the three kingdoms of Qin, Han and Wei jointly persecuted the Song State and asked the Song State to return the Xue Land to the Qi State.

Under the persecution of the three kingdoms of Qin, Han and Wei, and without the opening of the two countries of Qi and Zhao, the Song State could not withstand the pressure of the five countries, so it had to return Xue Di to the Qi State. And after the Qi State got Xue Di, he immediately relented and never mentioned the matter of attacking Huaibei of our Chu State. ”

Hearing this, Ye Gong and the others suddenly changed their faces.

If the countries do not attack Huaibei, then the only places left are Chen Cai, Fang Cheng, and Danxi.

Of these three places, Chen Cai was the easiest to capture, followed by Danxi, and then Fangcheng.

According to this order of difficulty, I am afraid that there is a lot of pressure between Danxi.

At this time, after Yin Jun's face changed for a while, he immediately asked Chen Zhen: "Assassin Shi Ling, Song State is an ally of the Six Kingdoms, but it was threatened by various countries and forced to hand over the Baili Xue Land, King Song must have something wrong in his heart." Therefore, I wonder if it can be said that the king of Song will defect? ”

Chen Zhen shook his head when he heard this, and then nodded quickly.

"What does the assassination of Shi Ling mean, is it possible to move the King of Song?" Yin Jun asked strangely.

Chen Zhen responded: "Yin Jun, at the same time as the King of Song ceded the land, he had already ordered the expulsion of Doctor Shangguan and Doctor Zuo to show his intention to break off relations with my Chu State. Therefore, judging from the current situation, it is impossible to say that the king of Song will defect.

However, if the battle of Vachu is stalemate, the longer the stalemate, the greater the possibility of the Song king's inner turmoil, and at that time, it can be said that the Song State will defect. ”

Xiong Huai smiled when he heard this: "Anyway, this matter has to be tried." ”

Saying that, Xiong Huai looked at the ministers beside him, and then ordered: "Pass the edict of the widow, with Zuo Yin Zhaochang as the envoy, go to visit the king of Song, the widow wants to take the land of Huaibei for three hundred miles as a gift, please make friends with the widow!" ”

When Ye Gong and the others heard this, their faces showed a smile, and they bowed and said: "The king is wise, the king of Song has just lost the land of Baili Xue under the persecution of various countries, but he has obtained three hundred miles of land from my Chu country. ”

Xiong Huai smiled, then looked at Chen Zhen and asked, "Chen Qing, I don't know how the countries plan to attack the widows?" ”

Chen Zhen responded: "Great King, the result of the discussion of the six kingdoms is that the three kingdoms of Qi, Wei and Zhao will attack Chencheng, while Qin and Han will attack the Danxi defense line. ”

Xiong Huai saw that Ye Gong and the others looked like they were facing a great enemy, and touched his beard with his hand and said with a smile: "The three kingdoms of Qi, Wei and Zhao attacked Chen Cheng, this is to make a wedding dress for the Wei State, and the two countries of Qi and Zhao have no direct income. Qin and Han attacked Danxi, which was to make a wedding dress for Qin.

The land north of Danshui is facing the Wuguan of the Qin State, even if the Qin State is willing to give a part of the land to South Korea, I am afraid that South Korea may not want it.

Therefore, in the near future, the Three Kingdoms of Han, Zhao and Song will be the key to breaking the situation in our Chu State. ”

As soon as the ministers heard this, what the king of Chu said was reasonable and well-founded, as if in the eyes of the king of Chu, the alliance of various countries could be broken in a blink of an eye.

Thinking about it, Ye Gong and the generals under his command glanced at each other, and saluted together: "The king is wise, and all countries should not be afraid!" ”

Xiong Huai saw that Ye Gong and the others' faces were slightly relaxed, so he waved his hand and said with a confident smile: "If the widow wants to divide the countries, he has to block the Qin-Han coalition again, as long as the ministers don't give the Qin-Han coalition a chance, within a year and a half, the widow can disintegrate the six-nation alliance, regain the status of the overlord of the world, and let Chu become the hegemon again." ”

When Ye Gong and the others heard this, they immediately bowed and said, "I am willing to serve the king." ”

Seeing this, Xiong Huai immediately leaned over and helped Ye Gong up: "Zhuqing, please get up, please work together with the widow." ”

"Yui!"

After the ministers got up, Xiong Huai groaned for a while, and then spoke: "Order, the widow will continue to inspect Danshui, and the alliance of various countries, in the eyes of the widow, there is no need to worry at all!" ”
