Wu Cheng of the Yue Kingdom.

"This year, the King of Chu plans to crusade against the State of Wu again, and this time the King of Chu personally leads the troops to fight, I wonder how Qing thinks our Yue Kingdom will deal with it?"

After receiving the news from the envoy of Chu, King Yue was suddenly confused.

There is no big deal about Vaqi, the key is that the king of Chu personally went into battle.

A serious consequence of this situation is that King Yue is very passive.

Not long after the exchange of ministers between the two countries, if the Yue State rejected the joint action of the Chu State, it would undoubtedly tear apart the intimacy between the two countries.

Although Zhang Yi had already revealed the news that Qin and Qi were preparing to attack Chu when he visited, what if this was a trick to disguise Qi and send troops south to attack Yue during the Great War of Qin and Chu?

The Yue country faced the Qi country alone, and the pressure was extremely huge.

However, if you agree to Chu's request to send troops, then you, the king of Yue, must go into battle in person.

Sending a minister to go, not only did he not have the confidence to speak in front of the king of Chu, and his unequal identity seemed to be insufficient, but also it seemed that he was more cowardly than the king of Chu, and the king of Chu himself went up, but the king of Yue did not dare to go up.

In the face of such a difficult problem, the Vietnamese country was divided into two factions, with those in favor of sending troops and those who opposed it.

What made the king of Yue feel even more big was that the whole country of Yue was in a mess in the court meeting, at first Gongzi Yu agreed, then Gongzi hoof opposed, then Gongshiyu agreed, and then Zhang Yi came out against, between the factions of the Yue Kingdom, the king of Yue himself couldn't tell who was the same faction.

In this case, the king of Yue had no choice but to announce the dissolution of the dynasty and summon Yue Meng to the palace for discussion.

Yue Meng said calmly: "The king, the minister means to promise the king of Chu." ”

King Yue said solemnly: "I would like to hear it in detail!" ”

Yue Meng said with a smile: "Great King, the minister remembers that the Great King told Weichen before that Zhang Yi of the Qin State wanted to win over the Yue State and revealed the news that the Qin and Qi countries were preparing to attack the Chu State. ”

King Yue nodded and said, "That's true." ”

Yue Meng clapped his hands: "King, this is an opportunity to weaken the Chu State, if the King of Chu attacks the Qi State on a large scale, it will inevitably cause the Chu State to only take a defensive position in the face of the Qin State." The fierceness of the Qin army is a well-known thing in the world, and the soldiers of the Qin State are facing the Danxi of the Chu State when they go out of the military pass. The difficulty of Qin's attack on Danxi was far easier than crossing the river to attack Wei. ”

"Therefore, as long as the center of gravity of the Chu State moves eastward, then the Chu State will face the large-scale attack of the Qin State, and it will lose its troops and generals, and at worst it will lose its division and lose its territory. Great King, it is time to weaken the state of Chu. ”

"As for the problem that the king is worried about, as long as the king is in the process of attacking Qi, he takes the lead of the king of Chu, lets the Chu army take the lead everywhere, and carefully guards against the Qi country, then it will naturally ensure that I have no worries about the country."

King Yue was silent for a while, and then sneered: "It's not the first time that the widow has personally led the troops to attack the Qi State, the widow has gone out this time, and the order has been sent to reply to the envoy of the Chu State, that is, the Yue State has agreed to send troops to attack Qi with the Chu State." ”

···

The large-scale deployment of troops between Chu and Yue could not hide from other countries at all, not to mention the Qi State that had just conspired with the Qin State and planned to flank the Chu State, and had been paying attention to the Chu State.

Qi country Linzi.

"The State of Chu has greatly transferred troops, and the State of Yue has also transferred troops to a large extent, is it the internal strife between Chu and Yue, or do they want to attack the attention of our State of Qi again?"

King Qi took the information sent back from Chu and Yue, and smiled fiercely: "It seems that Chu and Yue want to hit the attention of my Qi State again!" ”

Qi Xiangchuzi said: "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king." ”

After the prince spoke, Tian Pan Kuangzhang and others congratulated together: "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king." ”

King Qi laughed and said, "According to the plan of my Qin and Qi countries, it was originally to attack the Chu State in order to consume the national strength of the Chu State. Now that Chu and Yue are attacking, it will inevitably lengthen the front of Chu. The army is outside, deep into the enemy country, and the consumption in it will definitely multiply. ”

"The widow seems to have seen the weakness of the Chu State."

After a pause, King Qi asked, "Zhongqing, how do you think we should fight this time?" ”

Kuang Zhang said: "King, the state of Chu is coming, in order to increase the consumption of the state of Chu, the minister thinks that my state of Qi should lure the enemy deep and put the battlefield in Tancheng." Tancheng is the gateway of Qilu, and the city is high and deep, which is conducive to defense. ”

"In order to prevent the Chu State from plundering the people like last time, we can move the people in advance and clear the wilderness."

After Kuang Zhang finished speaking, Tian Pan said: "King, what Zhang Zi said is extremely true, our Qi State can go further, first move Meng Weijun's fief to the north, and then use Xue Di as bait to lure the Chu army to attack Xue Di. Xue Di is sandwiched between the three kingdoms of Song and Luqi, once the Chu army enters Xuedi, then we can first use heavy profits to induce Song to defect, and then the main force of Qi will go out of Tancheng, block the road for the Chu army to return south, and encircle and suppress the Chu army that entered Xuedi. ”

King Qi was shocked: "But will the Chu army be fooled?" Or maybe only one of the deviant divisions went to Xuedi. ”

Tian Pan sneered: "Great King, although Xue Gong Tian Ying and King Chu Wei have both passed away, the hatred between Xue Gong and Chu State has been planted a long time ago, not to mention the wealth of Xue Di is a thing known to the world. ”

"As for the problem of the Chu State sending a partial division, as long as our Qi State leaves a tens of thousands of elite soldiers in Xue Di, so that the Chu State partial division cannot be eaten, but the main force of the Chu army can easily defeat Xue Di."

King Qi nodded: "How to buy the Song Kingdom?" The widow is worried that the Chu State will divide the Xue Land with the Song State! ”

Tian Pan said: "I don't know if the king thinks that the Xue Land of our Qi State and the land south of Pi in the Chu State, north of Huaishui, and east of Surabaya will make the Song State defect." ”

"This..." King Qi's head was dizzy, this land was only a little less than that of the Song Kingdom, and the Song Kingdom had more people and less land, would he hold back?

After a long pause, King Qi said with a firm gaze: "Order, add Xue Gongtian Wen as Meng Weijun, and let him come to see the widow immediately." ”

······

Because of the need to transfer troops from Jiangnan, the preparation time for this expedition was extraordinarily long.

The time advanced to October, and the transfer of troops of the Chu State was completed.

For a time, the twenty-five Chu armies gathered in Huaibei, and the momentum was huge.

At the same time, the king of Yue led 120,000 Vietnamese troops to Huaibei.

King Yue of Chu personally led the troops, and the strength of the Chu-Yue coalition army was as high as nearly 400,000, which also shocked the world.

The land of Huaibei was suddenly covered with war clouds, attracting the attention of all countries in the world.

Song.

King Song asked, "Huiqing, the 400,000 Chu-Yue coalition army attacked the Qi State, who do you say will win?" ”

Hui Ang shook his head and said, "King, it doesn't matter who wins Qi Chu, what matters is how we win!" ”

King Song swallowed his saliva and said: "The State of Qi sent an envoy to say that it would pit the State of Chu once, and the few people had the intention of moving, but the forces of the Chu-Yue coalition army are too many, and I am afraid that our Qi and Song countries can only have a draw with the two countries of Chu and Yue if they join forces." ”

Hui Ang shook his head and said: "King, our Wei State in the northwest is an ally of Chu State, and not long ago Chu State quickly aided Wei De, and the friendship is still there!" For the sake of a pie with an unknown victory, and give up the easy advantage, the minister asked the king to think twice. ”
