Yue Wang Fan Liwen is in a meeting. These are the three giants of Vietnam, and their meeting can decide the future fate of Vietnam.

King Yue was about to move, and wanted to immediately raise troops to attack Wu, Fan Li and Wen Chongli admonished, thinking that the time was not yet ripe. At the meeting, it was decided to continue to keep a low profile. And use tactics to weaken the combat effectiveness of the Wu army. Wait for your time and strike the final blow.

Twenty years have passed, and the Yue Kingdom has come out of the predicament step by step, and now it is time to talk about when to fight the Wu State, needless to say, everyone is very excited.

The king of Yue did not listen to Fan Li's advice and rashly launched a war, which led to the destruction of the Yue Kingdom. Although he is eager to restore the country now, he does not dare to disobey the opinions of the two courtiers. But thinking that the knowledge and talent of the two courtiers were higher than his own, he felt a great discomfort in his heart. But on the surface, it doesn't show it at all.

At this moment, it was suddenly reported. The envoy of Wu asked to see him. King Yue said, "What is the envoy of Wu doing at this time? ”

Wen Chong said: "Just send him in and ask." ”

Fan Li said: "It's inconvenient for me to show up. The king and the Xiangguo will meet each other. He said and hid behind the palace curtains.

King Yue said, "Please invite the envoy of Wu to come in and speak." ”

After a while, the envoy of Wu walked in quickly, bowed down, and said, "Your Majesty the King of Yue." ”

This envoy still met with the etiquette of the suzerain, and did not kneel, but just bowed down to give a salute, and the king of Yue was so angry that the roots of his teeth itched, and the anger in his heart swelled up, and he couldn't help but have a seizure. Wen Chong glanced at King Yue vigorously, and King Yue said lightly: "Respect the envoy and exempt him." How is His Majesty King Wu? ”

The messenger said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your good health." The King also greets His Majesty. ”

King Yue said, "Thank you, Your Majesty King Wu. ”

Wen Chong said: "The envoy came to Vietnam, what do you have to say? ”

The envoy said: "This year, the country of Wu has a drought and a poor harvest, and the domestic grain harvest has failed. Request for assistance from Vietnam. ”

King Yue secretly rejoiced in his heart, the famine in Wu was good news for Yue. But on the surface, he still showed sympathy and said: "It turns out that the harvest of Wu has failed, please extend my greetings to His Majesty King Wu and the victims." At the beginning, when the harvest in Yue was poor, Wu reached out to help 200,000 loads of grain in Yue. Recently, Yue Guo raised grain and shipped it to Wu to return the borrowed grain. ”

Wen Chong said: "King, at the beginning, Wu Guo lent us grain. , to help us survive the famine, now that the harvest of Wu is poor, in addition to returning the borrowed grain, should we also express our gratitude for the grace of borrowing grain? ”

King Yue said generously: "Fortunately, Xiangguo reminded me that it should be so." In order to thank King Wu for his kindness in borrowing grain, in addition to returning the 200,000 quintals of grain he borrowed, the Yue Kingdom also gave 50,000 quintals of grain. As a token of appreciation. ”

The envoy of the state of Wu was overjoyed, this time the envoy had achieved such a great consummation, and hurriedly got up and thanked him: "On behalf of the king, the minister expresses his gratitude to Your Majesty. ”

King Yue smiled and said: "The envoy does not have to be polite, Wu and Yue have been friendly for generations and help each other, as a matter of course." ”

Wen Chong said: "The envoy first asks the post house to rest, and we will organize manpower to raise food, and it will be shipped to Wu in a few days." ”

The messenger said, "The minister is retired." ”

The envoy of Wu bowed and withdrew. Fan Li came out from behind the curtain and applauded: "King Shengming, give Wu 50,000 loads of grain, this thing is too beautiful." ”

King Yue said: "This matter is due to Xiangguo's reminder." ”

Fan Li said: "50,000 quintals of grain is a small matter for us. We have more than 500,000 quintals of grain from Vietnam. These 50,000 quintals of grain are enough to make King Wu happy for a while, and it is also in line with our strategy of taoguang and obscurity. ”

King Yue said: "This is a trivial matter, Xiangguo arranged for people to raise food and send it to Wu Guo." ”

Fan Li said: "Wait." ”

King Yue and Wen Chong looked at Fan Li together, not knowing what idea came to his mind. King Yue said, "What else does the young uncle have to say?" ”

Fan Li said: "I vaguely feel that this matter may be able to do something. ”

Wen Chong said, "What idea have you come up with?" ”

Fan Li said: "I can't say any good ideas for a while, let me think about it." ”

Fan Li groaned while pacing, and King Yue and Wen Chong both looked at him in a daze. In their opinion, borrowing food from others and returning it to others, what tricks can be made? But they knew that Fan Li's mind was different, and maybe he could come up with a clever plan in this matter.

Finally, Fan Li stood down and said, "Now there is a famine and lack of food in Wu Kingdom, but no matter how famine, they still have to plant this year's crops." Now, less than a month later, the winter wheat planting season is approaching, and we are making a fuss about it. ”

King Yue smiled and said, "Young uncle, what kind of medicine did you buy in this gourd?" ”

The article laughed: "I also listen confused. ”

Fan Li said: "We distribute the grain to the people, ask them to be completely clean, and require the grains to be full, we send down 100 catties, collect 90 catties, and the 10 catties are used as their wages, and the people are definitely willing to do it." ”

King Yue said: "Why do we have to put so much effort into returning the grain? ”

Fan Li said: "The mystery lies here. These grains are full of grains, and as soon as the people of Wu get their hands, they must like it very much, thinking that they can be used as seeds. When the wheat is sown, it will certainly be used as a seed. ”

King Yue laughed: "What kind of clever plan did I come up with, it turned out that I sent seeds to Wu Guo." We have already given them 50,000 loads, so why bother? ”

Wen Chong heard the door and said, "King, listen to the young uncle." ”

Fan Li said: "We ask the people to distill these grains in a dry pot and inactivate them at high temperatures, without leaving a trace. In this way, the common people of Wu will not produce a single seedling if they sow these grains. ”

Wen Chong said: "They plough the land and re-sow seeds, and they have missed the agricultural time, and the yield will be greatly reduced, and next year Wu will be another year of famine, and we will be sure to defeat Wu State." ”

King Yue took a deep breath: "Young uncle, this move is too powerful. caused a large reduction in production in the whole country of Wu, which is bigger than starting a war and dealing a blow to Wu! ”

Wen Chong said sincerely: "This plan can only be imagined by the young uncle." ”

King Yue said gritted his teeth and said, "Just do it!" We will act according to the plan, and the widow will leave for Nanlin Labor Army tomorrow, and Xiangguo will arrange for people to be responsible for the return of food. ”

Fan Li said: "This matter is a bit lacking in morality, don't explain it to the people, just tell them that this is the country's special grain." Cover up the past. ”

Wen Chong said: "I know this. ”

King Yue said: "Young uncle, your affairs, arrange your own affairs, what are your plans?" ”。

Fan Li said: "I'll go to Wu Kingdom first and keep an eye on Bo Yao." Do a good job of selling wine, and try to meet Xi Shi and Zheng Dan to arrange the next move. After these things were over, the minister planned to visit the northern countries in order to stir up trouble. provoke them to fight with Wu and create a good opportunity to destroy Wu. ”

King Yue said, "Okay, let's split up according to the plan." ”
