Chapter 915: Return to Korea

Xiong Huai was slightly stunned when he heard that the Korean prince was sick and died, and then reacted quickly.

It's really eventful.

This incident is an excellent excuse for other countries to meddle in South Korea, and the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Qi will definitely not let go of this opportunity, and will definitely make South Korea stand again by establishing a prince.

Therefore, for the Chu State, the most important thing now is to set up a prince close to the Chu State as soon as possible to stabilize the situation in Korea.

And now South Korea, its importance to the state of Chu is self-evident.

As long as Korea is still allied with Chu, then with the situation of Shangluo Ancient Road, Qin will not be able to send troops to attack Chu on a large scale. At the same time, it will be difficult for Qin to join forces with Qi and Wei because of Korea.

Therefore, South Korea is an important force used by Chu to contain various countries, not to mention that there is only one ally around Chu now, South Korea.

South Korea cannot afford to lose.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai immediately realized the urgency of sending Gongzi lice back to South Korea. Although there is an uncle in South Korea who wants to delay time, how long can he delay?

You must know that there is only a distance of about 100 miles from Daliang of Wei to Xinzheng in South Korea, and if you hurry up, you can arrive in just one day.

And the Yingdu of Chu is located in the south, and it is indeed far away from Xinzheng.

If King Han changed his mind and betrayed the state of Chu under the persuasion of other countries...

Thinking of this, Xiong Huai said without hesitation: "Spread the edict, please Zuo Yin, Xiang Chengjun and Gongzi lice come to see the widow immediately." ”

As he spoke, Xiong Huai paused and then ordered: "Spread the edict, prepare the carriage immediately, and send another order to the general Deng Lingguang, so that he can immediately transfer three hundred soldiers from the guards for the use of the widows." ”

"Yui!" After the messenger left, Chen Zhen once again arched his hand and said: "King, although the matter of sending Gongzi and lice back to China is urgent, but the countries must not be on guard. The minister feared that the countries would put great pressure on Korea to force Korea to betray the Chu state. The minister was even more worried that if South Korea withstood the pressure and made Gongzi lice the crown prince, various countries might be angry and send troops to attack South Korea and force South Korea to defect by force. ”

Xiong Huai was stunned for a moment, and then nodded, what Chen Zhen said was extremely likely.

With such a good excuse this time, all countries will definitely not give up on this, and it is a high probability event to send troops to attack South Korea and intervene by force.

If various countries send troops to attack Korea, it will be necessary for Chu to rescue Korea.

However, the current situation of the state of Chu is not able to send troops to war with various countries in Korea with all its might, and it is unwise to fight a decisive battle with various countries in Korea for the sake of a single Korea.

Therefore, only one part of the army can be sent to rescue South Korea, and the other part can contain other countries.

Thinking of this, Xiong Huai compared the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Qi in his heart, and instantly found that the Qin State could not be contained, and if the Qin State sent a letter to Guguan, then the Chu State had no other way than to force the Qin army back head-on.

And Qi and Wei are much easier to deal with.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai immediately ordered: "Send an order to the rhino head, let him prepare his army for battle, and be ready to go north to save Han at any time." Ordered Chen Di to guard Zhaoying, and asked him to recruit troops in Chen Di, ready to create signs of an army to attack Wei and attract the attention of the Wei army. Also, he sent an order to Shen Yifu, the general of the naval division, to transfer all the naval divisions to Tangyi in the East China Sea, where naval battle drills were conducted to attract the attention of the Qi State. ”

"Yui." Chen Zhen responded, thought for a while, and said: "King, there is something wrong in Korea, and the public government must be guarded against." The reason why South Korea is still on the side of my Chu State now is because of my uncle's contribution. If at this time, Gong Zhong suddenly appeared in Korea and said that the king of Han would fall to Qin, it would be a disaster for our Chu State. ”

Xiong Huai was stunned, and almost forgot about the Korean hostage Gongzhong, who lived in seclusion, but this Gongzhong was the leader of the pro-Qin faction in South Korea and the trump card of the Chu State to control the uncle.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai nodded and said, "Xianqing reminds you that you must not let the public middle run away." Xianqing immediately went to the Gongzhong Mansion in person and asked him to come and meet the widow. Also, from now on, Xianqing will closely monitor Gongzhong, and all those who leave his mansion must be checked one by one, and he will not be allowed to get out of his shell. ”

"Yes, my lord."

On the other side, on the Gongzhong Mansion, as soon as Gongzhong received a message from Han Min from South Korea, he immediately had mixed feelings.

To his sorrow, the crown prince, who had always been close to him, died of illness, and to his delight, he saw an opportunity, an opportunity to overthrow his uncle and return to Korea to govern himself.

Thinking about it, Gong Zhong suppressed the sadness in his heart and immediately ordered: "Order, prepare the carriage immediately, this gentleman wants to visit Xincheng Jun's son lice." ”。

At the gate, Gong Zhong had just boarded the carriage, and before he could set off, a large number of Chu soldiers appeared in the distance, and they blocked the street while going straight to Gong Zhong's mansion.

On the carriage, Gong Zhong saw that the road was blocked by the Chu army, and his face changed instantly.

Uncle is really hateful, he let the Chu people control him, and he didn't even give him a chance...

In the palace at this time.

Xiong Huai had already informed Gongzi of the news of the death of the crown prince's baby, and told him that Chu was going to send him back to China to succeed the crown prince.

And after Gongzi Lice returned to the house to prepare, Xiong Huai instructed Zuo Yin Zhaochang: "Xianqing, this time the matter in Korea came suddenly, Xianqing needs to immediately escort Gongzi Lice back to South Korea, in order to avoid accidents, you will leave today, and then go to Xinzheng day and night." ”

Zhao Chang knew the seriousness of this matter, and immediately nodded and said, "The minister understands." ”

"Also, the widow is worried that various countries will send troops to Korea and forcibly establish a crown prince. Therefore, after Xianqing arrived in Xinzheng, he told King Han and his uncle not to be afraid, the widow would support Korea behind his back, and the widow had gathered troops in Chendi to raid the hinterland of Wei at any time, and all the sailors were transferred to the East China Sea to raid the hinterland of Qi at any time.

If the Qin State invades South Korea and lets Korea hold on to the west and wait for reinforcements, the widows are already ready in Yingdu and can send troops to rescue at any time. ”

"Yes, the minister will definitely let South Korea unswervingly stand on the side of my Chu State."

Hearing this, Xiong Huai breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and then looked at Xiang Chengjun on Zhaochang's side.

When Xiang Chengjun returned after being humiliated before, Xiong Huai had also summoned him many times, and saw that he had not collapsed due to the blow, so this time Xiong Huai planned to give Xiang Chengjun a heavy responsibility.

"Xiang Chengjun, Gongzi and lice came to Chu as a hostage when they were young, and the widow also knows that you have a good relationship with Ziqing and lice. Therefore, the widow gives you 300 elite guards soldiers this time, and you go to Korea with the lice to protect the safety of the lice and help the lice gain a foothold in Korea. ”

When Xiang Chengjun heard this, he immediately bowed his hand and said: "Please rest assured, the minister will definitely do his best to help Gongzi lice." ”

"Good!" Xiong Huai nodded, thought about it, and hesitated: "Also, if there is a disagreement, we must save the life of the prince and bring the lice back to the Chu State." ”

"Yui." Xiang Chengjun nodded vigorously.

Soon, several carriages, escorted by 300 soldiers, galloped all the way to Xinzheng.
