Chapter 330: The widow is a sword, and the king of Chu is a fish
Although the king of Chu promised to go to the Qin State Alliance, the Qin State bullied him several times, which still made him feel palpitations. If the king of Chu does not go to Qin, he will not only be looked down upon by the king of Qin, but also laughed at by the princes of the Central Plains. Gongzi Fu entered Qi as a hostage, and Qi people entered Qin as a phase, which also made the King of Chu misjudge the situation. The current national strength of the Chu State is more than enough to deal with the Qin State, plus Qi, Han, and Wei, the Chu State is more auspicious than lucky. The king of Chu is for the sake of the Chu State, for the sake of the country, and for the sake of returning to the era of the hegemony of the Chu State. The king of Qin invited him to join the alliance, and he had to go.
In this alliance, the king of Chu believed that the king of Qin did not dare to ask him to do anything excessive. Although the Qin State has no morality, it cannot be without a bottom line. When the king of Qin met the alliance, it was really unfavorable to him and violated morality, and he would not only be hit hard by the Chu state, but also by the princes. King Qin would not be stupid enough to challenge and maintain the order of the princes of the world.
The king of Chu was confident, even conceited, although the state of Chu could not help but attack the princes of the Central Plains. But it was more than enough to deal with the Qin State. The king of Chu relied on the strength of the country to go to Wuguan to meet with the king of Qin and negotiate with him. The king of Chu could also meet the situation of the alliance and claim back the territory occupied by the Qin.
The king of Chu is not a foolish person, since he went to Qin Huimeng, he must be prepared. If there is really an accident when he meets the alliance, then there will be a problem in the Chu State... If there is no owner in the country, there will be no one to preside over the government.
In order to avoid the situation that there was no one to supervise the state of Chu, the king of Chu asked his son Zilan to supervise the state and ordered Yin Zhaoju to assist the country. Zhao Rat and Xiong Biao led an army of 100,000 and stationed on the border of Qin and Chu.
Everything was ready, but the king of Chu was still not at ease, so he secretly sent people into Qin to find out the truth. After some tossing, the king of Chu finally embarked on the road to Qin. The king of Chu traveled north and arrived at the border pass between Qin and Chu... Wuguan.
Wuguan, in the Spring and Autumn Period, was the territory of the Chu State. The state of Chu called it Shao Xi Guan.
Shaoxi Pass, north of the rock of Shaoxi Mountain, east, west, south of the river valley of the stream. The mountain is surrounded by water, the danger is natural, there are four ridges in the east of the city, the ridge is high and steep, go up the mountain together, do not allow to ride together.
This pass is not unfamiliar to the Chu State.
Qin and Chu had been at war for many years because of Wuguan. Because the Qin State occupied a favorable geographical position, it held on to the danger and defeated the Chu State many times. In order to develop eastward, the state of Chu stabilized the state of Qin. The state of Chu was very generous in gifting this pass to the state of Qin.
The Qin State obtained the Shaoxi Pass and renamed it Wuguan. Therefore, Xianyang of Qin became the land of four stops.
There is Hangu Pass in the east of Qin, which blocks the westward advance of the princes of the Central Plains; There is a Wuguan in the south, blocking the northward movement of the Chu State; There is Xiao Pass in the west, blocking Rong Di's eastward advance; There is a scattered pass in the north to resist the Yiqu people going south. The Qin State was able to compete with the princes for the world because of the 800 miles of fertile soil in Guanzhong and the land of Sisai.
The king of Chu looked at this pass and sighed: "This pass belongs to Chu, why worry that the Qin State will not be broken." ”
The guards beside the King of Chu shouted: "The King of Chu is here, why don't you open the city gate quickly and let the King of Qin come out to greet him." ”
The Qin people on the city tower saw it and hurriedly said, "Open the city gate." ”
After a while, the gate of Wuguan City opened, and a team of Qin troops poured out.
Chu General Jing Hua looked at the Qin people on the city tower, and then looked at the large number of Qin troops pouring out. For some reason, Jing Hua's heart welled up with strong unease. Perhaps it was his intuition over the years of conquest that told him that the Qin people had a conspiracy.
Jing Hua walked into the King of Chu and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, something is wrong with the situation. ”
The King of Chu was full of ambition, how could he take Jinghua's words to heart, and asked lightly: "What's wrong?" ”
Jing Hua said: "Wuguan is related to the safety of Xianyang in the Qin State. Wuguan City is broken, and Lantian is left in Xianyang, the capital of Qin. If Lantian is broken, there is no danger to defend. The king must have forgotten that more than ten years ago, our army arrived in Lantian and fought a bloody battle with the Qin people. King Qin Hui not only sent troops everywhere to punish generals, but also sent the princes to Lantian. The Qin people tried in vain to fight us in a final battle in Lantian. ”
The king of Chu thought that he had the opportunity to break through Lantian more than ten years ago, arrived in Xianyang, and asked the king of Qin for his guilt. It's a pity that Han and Wei took advantage of Chu's unpreparedness and went south in a big way, resulting in the collapse of the entire Chu State. When the king of Chu thought of this, he all hated Han and Wei, and said angrily: "If it weren't for Han and Wei, how could there be today's Qin State." ”
Jing Hua also missed the great opportunity to break Qin, and he was extremely sorry, "Wuguan is the arch guarding Lantian, the king, but I feel that something is wrong." ”
The king of Chu looked around and said, "The widow didn't feel that anything was wrong. ”
Jing Hua said: "The terrain of Wuguan is prominent, and it should be heavily guarded." ”
The king of Chu said with a smile: "The widow is allied with the king of Qin, and he is not here to fight. King Qin sent heavy troops to guard it, wouldn't it make people suspicious. ”
"What the king said is very true." Jing Hua still felt that something was wrong there, "But Chen still thinks there is a problem." ”
Seeing that he was too cautious, the king of Chu sneered: "You! Too much to worry about. ”
Jing Hua said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, if you are in a dangerous place, you should be careful." ”
The king of Chu said contemptuously: "How dare the Qin State be unfavorable to the widows. ”
At this time, General Qin walked out of the pass, stepped forward and saluted: "King Chu, my king has been waiting for you for a long time." ”
The King of Chu looked behind General Qin, but he didn't see the figure of King Qin, he was slightly angry in his heart, and asked, "The widow is here, and the King of Qin doesn't greet him personally." Is there a widow in the eyes of King Qin? Where is the King of Qin? ”
Shu Changhuan replied with a soft expression: "My king is in the city. ”
When the king of Chu heard this, he was furious in his heart. The King of Qin is the king of a country, so he doesn't know how to be hospitable.
The king of Chu asked: "The widow came to meet the alliance, and the king of Qin did not come out to greet him, this is the etiquette of the Qin State!" ”
"Don't be angry, King Chu. The king of Fei Wu did not come to meet the king of Chu. Shu Changhuan apologized and said: "My king came from Xianyang, and he was not accustomed to the water and soil, and he was infected with the wind and cold. At this time, he was recuperating in the city and neglected the king of Chu. ”
King Chu replied coldly: "King Qin's body is too delicate!" ”
"My king's body is indeed delicate." The chief said with a smile: "Please invite the king of Chu to enter the city and discuss the alliance between the two countries with my king." ”
"Wait." Jing Hua always felt that this matter was a little strange, "The Huimeng should be held under the city, how can it enter the city." ”
Shu Changhuan's face was calm, and he said in a calm tone: "My king is not in good health, and I ask the king of Chu to forgive me." ”
"Once we enter the city, the Qin people close the city gates. Isn't it that we have become hostages of the Qin people? Jing Hua stared at Shu Changhuan's eyes, as if he wanted to see through what was hidden behind those eyes, "The two countries will be allied, how can there be any talk of entering the city." Either ask the King of Qin to come out and join the alliance. Or, the two countries will join forces. ”
"How could the general think that." Shu Changhuan looked frightened, and said in a trembling tone: "The State of Chu is a big country, and the princes of the world dare not offend the State of Chu. The State of Qin is a small country, how dare it offend the State of Chu. We closed the gates of the city and seized the king of Chu. Isn't this provoking a war between the two countries? ”
Jing Hua didn't get the answer he wanted from the other party's expression, and said coldly: "I have never been at ease with you Qin people. ”
"If the general is not at ease, send the soldiers into the city to find out." Shu Changhuan looked at the King of Chu, and said with a peaceful look in his eyes: "A few years ago, the King of Chu and the King of Qin met in Huangthorn. What is the character of my king, doesn't the king of Chu know. My king is the son-in-law of the king of Chu, how dare he be disrespectful to the king of Chu. The seizure of the kings of other countries is a taboo for the princes, and it is also unbearable for the princes. This move will be jointly crusaded against by the princes of the world. The state of Chu is powerful, how dare the state of Qin do unrighteous acts. ”
Seeing that General Qin was in a low voice, the King of Chu tried his best to pursue the State of Chu, and he was very happy in his heart, and he was not worried that he would be detained by the King of Qin.
King Chu glanced at Jing Slip and said nonchalantly: "Jing Slip, you have too much heart. The king of Qin did not have the courage to detain the widow. He didn't have the courage to challenge the order of the princes of the world. If the king of Qin really dares to detain the widow and commit unrighteous acts, not only will the state of Chu attack the state of Qin, but the princes of the world will also attack Qin. ”
Shu Changwan hurriedly said: "What the King of Chu said is extremely true. How dare the king of Qin do unrighteous acts? ”
Seeing that the king was too careless, Jing Hua actually believed the words of the Qin people, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty." ”
Where could the king of Chu listen to it, and stopped: "Enter the city." ”
The king of Chu didn't know that in Wuguan City, the Qin people were ready to fight, bending bows and arrows, waiting for him to enter the city.
The chief of the concubine respectfully invited the king of Chu and others into the city. The king of Chu, Che Luan, stepped forward again, followed by a large number of Chu army soldiers.
Suddenly, Shu Changhuan gave an order.
With a bang, the city gates fell heavily, and the earth shook. The city gate fell, and the soldiers of the Chu army died instantly. A large number of soldiers were blocked from the city gates. A dense rain of arrows shot at the Chu army that entered the city.
Suddenly, the sound of wailing and screaming spread throughout the city. The smell of blood also permeated the air.
Before the king of Chu understood what was happening, he saw the soldiers around him fall to the ground one after another.
In less than half a cup of tea, the Qin people shot and killed the soldiers of the Chu State who entered the city, and surrounded the King of Chu Cheluan.
When the king of Chu saw the soldiers around him innocently dying, he shouted angrily: "What are you doing?" ”
Shu Changhuan changed his weak posture and said sarcastically: "King Chu, I still don't understand. ”
"You..."The King of Chu roared sharply, "Where is the King of Qin." ”
Seeing that the king of Chu was embarrassed, Shu Changhuan laughed and said, "My king is in Xianyang. ”
"It turns out that King Qin has never thought of forming an alliance with the widows." The King of Chu was furious and said, "All this is a conspiracy of the King of Qin. The widow was deceived by the King of Qin so miserably. ”
"The king of Chu is rarely sober." The chief sneered: "It's a pity, it's too late. ”
The King of Chu shouted angrily and asked, "If the King of Qin violates morality, he is not afraid of being attacked by the princes of the world?" ”
"If the princes of the world want to crusade against the Qin State, they must have the ability."
"King Qin deceived me, aren't you afraid of triggering a war between the two countries?"
"King Chu is that you are too stupid, who can blame you."
"What do you mean by that?"
"In the world of great contention, only fists fight the world. There is no reason for peace talks. Shu Changhuan said stiffly: "King Chu, please!" My king is waiting for you in Xianyang. ”
When the king of Chu saw that he was deceived by the king of Qin, he shouted: "The widow will not go." ”
"At the moment, I can't help you." Shu Changhuan shouted: "Someone is coming, tie up the king of Chu." ”
"Presumptuous." The king of Chu shouted angrily: "Who dares to move the widow." ”
The King of Chu shouted angrily, causing the timid Qin people to take a few steps back.
"This is the Qin State, how can you be arrogant." Shu Changhuan said: "Come on, tie me up." ”
Several bold Qin soldiers stepped forward and tied up the king of Chu.
Qin Wangji was drinking in the palace and watching singing and dancing. At this time, a person walked into the main hall with joy. Qin Wangji waved his hand to send the singer away, and asked the man, "Shou Zhu, there is news from Wuguan." ”
Shou Zhu nodded and said, "Your Majesty, there is news from Wuguan. The big fish not only took the bait, but was also imprisoned. In a few days, the big fish will be sent to Xianyang. ”
The King of Qin was overjoyed when he heard this: "The widow loves fishing, but the fish always do not take the bait. The widow once asked the master why the fish did not bite the hook. Do you know what the Master said to the widow? ”
Shou Candle said in a humble tone: "I don't know. ”
King Qin said: "The master said that fish don't bite the hook. One is that there are no fish in the water. The second is that the bait is not enough. If you want to catch a big fish, you need to have bait, and you have to put a long line. ”
Shou Zhu congratulated: "Your Majesty, you have finally caught a big fish." ”
"The widow threw a huge bait, how could the fish not bite the hook."
"Your Majesty, the ministers are a little puzzled. How could this big fish bite the hook easily. ”
The corners of Qin Wangji's lips moved slightly: "Fish, you can't be too greedy." You can't be too stupid. We are big fish, greedy, stupid, and too conceited. ”
"The king's words are too incisive. Minister, taught. ”
"The fish has been hooked, God really helps me Daqin." Qin Wangji asked, "Yu'er, it's a long time before it can be sent to Xianyang." ”
Shou Zhu thought about it and replied: "Wuguan to Xianyang, day and night, but only ten days"
Qin Wangji's eyes sparkled and said, "The widow can't wait to establish his father's and brother's deeds. ”
Shou Zhu asked, "Your Majesty, the King of Chu will cede Qianzhong County to us." ”
"The widow is a sword, and the king of Chu is a fish and meat." Qin Wangji's eyes revealed ruthlessness, "King Chu, there is no choice." ”
