Chapter 112: Guan Hu enters the cage

Zhao Ju's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "King, this matter can be done, now that the Qi State has transferred the sailors, it will be impossible to control the water, and the civilian boats may be insufficient for fighting, but they are completely usable to cross the river." ”

"Now the reason why the Qi State can resist our coalition army is because it resists the river and defends it, once the Qi State can't hold the Pushui, then the overall situation of this battle has been decided."

Xiong Huai said: "Okay, pass on the order of the widow, collect the civilian ships between the Jianghuai and Huai, and send someone to unite with Wei to ask for help from the Yue State, the Yue State as the leader of the alliance, can not just shout a big and empty slogan and finish the matter, this kind of thing must be done by the Yue State." ”

Chen Zhen responded: "Only." ”

After the arrangement of sending a ship to Wei State, everyone suddenly relaxed.

Xiong Huai pinched his chin with his hand, looked at the Qin army camp in the direction of the opposite bank with his eyes, and asked: "Two virtuous kings, if the general trend is clear today, after the defeat of the Qi State, how will we deal with Qin and Han." ”

Zhao Ju replied: "Great King, after the defeat of the Qi State, if Korea has not betrayed the Qin State, then we will unite the two countries of Zhao and Wei and attack Qin and Han in the west. Faced with the persecution of the three countries, Korea had only one way to betray the Qin state. ”

"But on the Qin State's side, once the Qin State is closed to itself, then it will be difficult for us to weaken the Qin State."

Chen Zhen agreed: "Great King, because of the terrain on the Qin side, the possibility of breaking through Hangu Pass and Wuguan is very low, if you want to weaken Qin, then the best way is to unite Yiqu and attack Qin on both sides." ”

Xiong Huai shook his head, not very satisfied with Chen Zhen and Zhao Ju's answers.

Whether it is attacking Qin Guohan Guguan or Wuguan, it is not the best policy, the loss is too great and it is difficult to see the effect, even the Chu State itself is unwilling to do this kind of thing, and the Sanjin side should be similar, and will not attack the incomparably strong Qin Pass wholeheartedly.

As for Yiqu, it is okay to contain the Qin State, and it is almost impossible to weaken the Qin State with the Yiqu, Gongsun Yan has already tried.

If Yiqu was destroyed by the Qin State, it would be a great loss for other countries.

The Qin State added and subtracted, and there were 200,000 more troops out of thin air.

Xiong Huai thought for a while and asked: "At present, it is difficult to weaken the Qin State, so is it possible to use the Wuguan Hangu Pass and the river water to put the tiger of the Qin State in a cage." ”

"It's the same as what Su Qin did before, no, it is necessary to go further than Su Qin, not to make the Qin State dare not wave eastward, but to make the Qin State unable to come out at all, so that he can only stay in Guanzhong."

Zhao Ju thought for a while and said: "Great King, this matter can be tried, in addition to the method of gathering the forces of various countries together to forcibly attack Hangu Pass, there is another way to attack the Qin State, that is, we and the Three Jin Dynasty divide our troops and fight each other." ”

"Our Chu soldiers surrounded the Qin State in the middle, and then let the Sanjin attack the Hedong region of the Qin State."

"The Qin State recaptured the Hexi land captured by the Three Jin Dynasty, but it has only been more than twenty years, and it is only a matter of more than ten years to capture part of the Hedong region of the Three Jin Dynasty, if the Three Jin Dynasty attack the Hedong Land together, the Qin State will be difficult to resist the siege of the Three Jin Dynasty under the condition that it is contained by our Chu State."

"As long as Zhao recaptures Lishi and Lin Land, which were captured by Qin more than ten years ago, and Wei recaptures Fenyin and Shaanxi, then Qin's power will shrink back to Hexi. Then Zhao and Wei refused to defend the river and built the Great Wall along the river, then the Qin state would be suppressed back to the west of the river, and could only retreat in Hangu Pass. ”

"If we instigate Wei to recapture Shaoliang on the west bank of the river, then Qin will definitely defend Shaoliang to the death, and no matter who wins or loses, Qin and Wei will both lose."

Zhao Ju looked at the King of Chu and hesitated: "It's just that in this way, it is our Chu State that is strengthening the two countries of Zhao and Wei, and Wei is originally the legacy of the overlord, if the east obtains land from Qi State, the west and Qin State reject the river, and the south is allied with our Chu State, once Wei State is given time to recuperate, I am afraid that the strength of Wei State will be restored soon, and it will be entrenched in Kanto again, and then it will be an extremely powerful Wei State." ”

"And our Chu State will be difficult to conquer Wuguan at that time, and we will gain nothing."

Xiong Huai pondered, either everyone did not gain anything, or Chu State itself did not harvest, it seemed to be a multiple-choice question.

As for the relationship between Qin and Wei, if you let yourself choose a strong country, then it should be Wei.

Although Wei and Zhao Han abused the world in the past, Wei's flaws were too obvious.

The Qin State was very thorough in its reform and was a strong country, and the Wei State was also very thorough in its reform, and it was also not weak.

It's just that Qin's change is to force its own people, and the people have no way out except to fight and farm, and after the people of Qin taste the sweetness of victory, everyone is willing to fight, and the fight is very ferocious, like a wolf and a tiger.

And Wei is more to buy its own people, Wei Wushu pushed the world for decades, after fighting Qin to fight Chu, after fighting Chu and Qi, after fighting Qi and Zhao Han, until Wei Wushu was disabled by the world, it was difficult to continue, Wei weakened, this weakening, Wei has not recovered so far.

The key factor in this is the geographical location of Wei, which determines that Wei has no chance to recuperate.

The Qin State occupies a favorable geographical position, and when the conditions are favorable, it sends troops to attack the countries of Kwantung, and when the situation is unfavorable, it retreats to recuperate and recuperate, which is the foundation of the emperor.

And Wei is located in the Central Plains, connected to almost all countries, Wei can attack all countries, and other countries can also attack Wei, Wei is the land of four wars.

It is clear which is better and which is worse at a glance.

Xiong Huai asked Zhaoju Chen Zhen, "The powerful Wei State, and the powerful Qin State, which country is beneficial to our Chu State?" ”

Zhaoju Chen said in unison: "Wei State." ”

Xiong Huai nodded and said, "Order, send envoys to Zhao and Wei, and after defeating the Qi State, we will invite Zhao Wei to persecute Korea, and then unite with the Three Jin Dynasty to fight the Qin State." At that time, the troops will be divided into three routes, and our Chu State will go to regain its own Shangyu land, and let Zhao and Wei send troops to regain their lost territory, and we must force the Qin State back to Hexi and block it within the Hangu Pass. ”

"If the widow can't get in, the Qin State will not think of it, it's best that there will be no Qin State in the world from now on, let the Qin State and those barbarians mix together."

Of course, this is just a matter of course, the Great Wall of China can't stop the Hu people in the north, and with only the river and the Qin Pass, which is still controlled by the Qin State, it is just a fool's dream to completely stop the Qin State.

Xiong Huai guessed in his heart that five or ten years should be possible.

Ten or five years from now, it is estimated that the world will be a different place.

Xiong Huai continued: "Doctor Shangguan, if Korea is still unwilling to betray Qin, then forget it, Korea is irrelevant, and the widow has decided to unite Zhao and Wei to force Han to attack Qin after the defeat of Qi. ”

"Yui."

The affairs of the Qin-Chu front were first learned by South Korea.

The news that the army brought by the King of Qin with reinforcements was only 10,000 reached Korea, which immediately caused an uproar in Korea.

What can 10,000 troops do, it is simply impossible to defeat the state of Chu, and Korea has been deceived.

South Korea's two important ministers and uncles quarreled again, but before the winner could be decided, King Han on the hospital bed fainted directly.

Doctor Shangguan saw that his uncle had returned again in vain, and South Korea still had no conclusion, so he had to put aside his cruel words and set off to return to the king of Chu.
