After speaking, Gongsun Yan paused, and then arched his hand and said: "Great King, the Song State is not the most important, and the minister is more worried that the Qin State will bribe Qi and Wei for the sake of the land of Bashu, and at that time, my Chu State will once again face a multi-front battle."

The current strength of our Chu State is not up to the combat strength of other countries, please think twice. ”

Xiong Huai nodded when he heard this.

Seeing the King of Chu nodding, Jing Cui immediately said urgently: "Great King, the land of Bashu is located in the upper reaches of my Chu State, and this place falls into the hands of the Qin State, and the hidden danger is too great. Moreover, at this time, the Qin State had already seized the Hanzhong and Shangyong places of our Chu State. Once the Qin State intends to be unfavorable to us, the troops will be divided into three routes, and at the same time attack our country from Wuguan, Hanshui, and Jiangshui, especially from the river and Hanshui downstream, our army will be passively defended, which is extremely unfavorable. ”

Saying that, Jing Cui bowed again: "King, please think twice, at this time, if you don't take advantage of Qin's internal turmoil to seize Bashu and the two places, and wait for Qin to successfully quell the rebellion, if my Chu State wants to go against the current to seize Bashu, I'm afraid there will be no chance."

Therefore, the minister thought that if he could pull out Bashu, even if it was a big price, since it was to make my Chu State have no strength to fight abroad in the next ten years, it would be worth it. ”

Xiong Huai nodded again, and what Jing Cui said was also very reasonable. The Qin State occupies Bashu and holds the upper and lower levels of Hanzhong, which has too great a geographical advantage for the Chu State.

If it can, the state of Chu can completely reverse this unfavorable situation at any cost.

But... Now that the changes in the state of Chu have just begun, it has only been a few days since he sent away his son Chen Xiang... Between the hundred-year plan and the thousand-year-old plan, Xiong Huai's choice is undoubtedly the latter!

After a deep groan, Xiong Huai raised his head and said slowly: "What Zhu Qing means is already known. Ling Yin and Zhu Guo are right, now Qin State has the four places of Bashu Hanzhong and Shangyong, occupying all the geographical advantages, and going downstream, which is too threatening to our Chu State. Therefore, the two places of Bashu must not be occupied by the Qin State again. ”

When Jing Cui Zhaoju heard this, he was overjoyed.

At this time, Qu Yuan and Dou You spoke at the same time: "King..."

Xiong Huai bowed his hand, stopped the two, and then continued: "However, what Taifu Yin and Zuo Tu said is also right, now that the strength of our Chu State has been greatly damaged, and we urgently need to recuperate, it is not appropriate to use troops on a large scale with foreign countries, let alone have a direct conflict with the Qin State, lest the Qin State unite Qi and Wei to use troops against our Chu State." ”

"King, this..." Jing Cui was stunned for a moment, and looked at the King of Chu in disbelief, how to prevent the Qin State from occupying Bashu again, if he did not send troops.

"Don't be impatient!" Xiong Huai appeased, and then spoke: "Although the widow can't fight for Bashu with the Qin State with all his might, however, the land of Bashu is easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as Shu Houhui can hold the Shu land, then with the power of the Shu State, there will be no threat to my Chu State." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Ju looked at the King of Chu regretfully and said, "What the king means is to seize Badi and support Shu Hou Hui against the Qin State. ”

"Not bad." Xiong Huai nodded and said: "The homeland of Ba, Yuyi and Pingdu have always been in the hands of my Chu State, and now Jiangzhou is in the hands of Qin State. Therefore, the widow planned to take Sima Qian, the commander of Wujun, as the general, and lead the army of Wujun, plus the 20,000 troops of Yingdu, and the army drawn from Dongting in Qianzhong, a total of 50,000 Chu troops to attack the Qin army in Zongyi.

As long as Jiangzhou falls into the hands of our Chu State, then our Chu State can be deployed along the river, even if Shu Land falls into Qin State again, Qin State wants to invade our Chu State from Shu Land, and it will have to take a lot of effort. ”

"And!" Xiong Huai glanced at the ministers: "The widow also plans to take Dianjiang Langzhong as the center to rebuild the country of Ba and the country, thinking that I am the Ping domain of the Chu country." ”

Before the land of Bashu was occupied by the Qin State, the two countries of Bashu were the leaders, and in addition, there were two countries that could not be ignored, one of which was the Tho State which was separated from the Shu State, and the other was the Chong State that was listed from the Ba State.

The ancestor of Chong Guo is the son of Ba Guo born to a princess of Chu State, because of the failure of the competition, he led the crowd to establish Chong Guo in the north of Ba State, and since then Ba State has been attacking Chong Guo for generations and becoming mortal enemies.

It wasn't until Pakistan's ally Tho opened the Guanyi to let the Qin army enter Shu in order to resist the pressure of Shu that Ba took advantage of Shu's inability to take care of its allies and was able to destroy the country in one fell swoop.

But it didn't take long for Pakistan to be damaged by its strength after the destruction, and it was led by Zhang Yi and perished together.

At this point, all the countries of Bashu were wiped out by the Qin State.

If the state of Chu obtains Jiangzhou, it can defend the river and water, and it can be attacked and retreated.

After the loss of Jiangzhou, Pakistan was left with only a Dianjiang, which was equivalent to the strength of the country, and could only be reduced to a vassal.

If Shu Hou Hui can successfully defend Shu, then the two small countries of Ba and Chong can also become a buffer zone for Bashu, so that Shu Hou can feel at ease.

If Shu is unfortunately captured by Qin, then Bachong and Chong can also become the forward base of Chu to resist Qin.

Although there will be many hidden dangers in this, in the current Chu State, this is a way to use less force and make a hundred times more profits.

When the time is ripe in the future, maybe Chu can annex Bashu and Shu in one fell swoop.

On the other side, Dou You was relieved to hear that the King of Chu only planned to capture the two places of Jiangzhou, which had been taken away by the Qin State not long ago, and Jiangzhou, the capital of the former Ba State.

Attacking these two places is far easier than capturing the entire land of Bashu.

At the very least, Zongyi was originally the land of Chu State, and attacking Zongyi from Pingdu County was not a dangerous place, so it was extremely easy to attack.

Thinking about it, Dou You immediately bowed: "The king is wise! ”

Then, when Qu Yuan and Gongsun Yan heard that they had only transferred 20,000 troops from Yingdu, they echoed: "The king is wise." ”

Jing Cui and Zhao Ju glanced at each other, although they were not very satisfied with this result, but now Qu Yuan and Dou You all agreed, and they had to bow down: "The king is wise." ”

After Xiong Huai saw that all the ministers agreed, he nodded, and then looked at Gongsun Yan and ordered: "Zuo Sima, pass on the edict of the widow, let Sima Qian, the guard of Wujun, immediately raise troops to threaten Zongyi, contain the Qin army in Zongyi, and not let them return to Shu to quell the rebellion."

Spread the edict, with the general Zhuang Ji as the general, and led 20,000 Chu troops to support Sima Qian.

The edict was passed on, and the county guard of Qianzhong and the Duke of Changsha each sent 5,000 Chu troops to support Sima Qian. ”

"Yui!" Gongsun Yan immediately responded.

Then, Xiong Huai looked at Chen Zhen and said: "Chen Qing, Lao Xianqing immediately sent someone to Shu to get in touch with the Marquis of Shu, and said that the widow intends to fully support the restoration of Shu."

In addition, there are also Ba and Chong, contact the local nobles and leaders, and say that the widows will do their best to help them restore the country, let them raise troops against Qin, and block the return of the Qin army in Tongyi.

This time, the widow wanted to swallow all the Qin troops that Sima Co had left in Badi, and destroyed the sailors of the Qin State. ”

"Yui."

"Zhu Guo, in order to put pressure on the Qin army, the widow gave Zhu 30,000 Chu troops, and asked Zhu Guo to sit in Wudang County, coerce Shangyong, and contain the Qin army."

"Yui."

After speaking, Xiong Huai set his eyes in the direction of Qin Guo and said with a smile: "Although the widow does not plan to send troops to intervene in Shu this time, he cannot let Qin Guoan send troops to quell the rebellion in a stable manner." ”

Saying that, Xiong Huai looked at Jing Cui and said with a smile: "Ling Yin, immediately send an envoy to the Qin State and tell the King of Qin that the widow heard that the Shu people of the Qin State had rebelled, and for the friendship of the two countries, in order to thank the Qin State for handing over the corpse of the pseudo-prince Lan, the widow plans to send 100,000 Chu troops to Shu to help the Qin State quell the rebellion."

Therefore, in order to avoid misunderstanding, I asked the King of Qin to let the Qin army in Badi open the road to Shu, so that the army of my Chu State could enter Shu. ”

"Yui."
