Chapter 392: Fan Li's Offering
"Brother-in-law, I haven't seen you for many days, my brother misses me very much!"
Naturally, it was Zheng Dan's brother who spoke, Fan Li, who was the envoy of Wu in the past, with the secret alliance between Daqin and Wu State, this one was also reused by King Wu in the court of Wu State recently, and entered Shangqing.
This time, Fan Li personally came to the military camp where Qin was stationed, which was also unexpected by Lin Yuyan, and it is reasonable, it seems that Wu Guo is indeed hiding a big secret, and Lin Yuyan guessed that he also wrote a letter to Wu Guo on the same day, saying that if Wu Guo did not explain truthfully, Daqin would inform the alliance lord Chu State of Wu's movements in Penglihu Lake in Yuzhang, as stated by the general of Jing State.
It was Lin Yuyan's threat that Fan Li, who was already the secretary of the court of Wu State, came in person, and the "attention" made Lin Yuyan have to think about it.
Lin Yuyan also looked at Fan Li, who arrived with a smiling face, and also said with a smile: "Fan Zi, at this time, the Wu State was defeated in Pengli Lake, and Fan Zi was a general who destroyed the country, why did he come to my Great Qin military camp at this time?" ”
Fan Li looked at Lin Yuyan, as if he didn't know the letter Lin Yuyan wrote to him, and said with a smile: "There are many generals on the side of the Wu State conquest, and it is really difficult to climb the platform for my brother......
Lin Yuyan looked at Fan Li, expressionless, as if he wanted to see through Fan Li, but Fan Li's face was rippling with a slight smile, and his eyes were like an ancient well without waves, and Lin Yuyan was always unable to see through the dripping water.
After a long time, Lin Yuyan asked people to pour a cup of tea for Fan Li, and said: "Ming people don't say secret words, Fan Zi covers it up like this, does he have a desire to cover it up?" ”
Fan Li brought the tea prepared by Lin Yuyan for him, and asked: "Qin Gongziyan, some people are on the battlefield and kill the enemy, but it seems that there is a certain kind of person, calculating the court, and crisscrossing the princes, why does His Highness need to ask more?" ”
Lin Yuyan shook his head and said to Fan Li: "My soldiers of Great Qin fought bloody battles on the front line and fought bravely to kill the enemy, but as a friendly army, Wu Guo is indeed on another battlefield, and it is really difficult to convince me of the indignation in my heart!" ”
"King Wu still doesn't know about the letter that Qin Gongzi wrote to so-and-so......," Fan Li replied, then looked at Lin Yuyan and replied: "As for the loss of the Qin State, Your Highness should not forget, there is no free lunch in the world, what the Wu State puts in front of the Qin State is the land of Jiangbei, I am afraid that the Qin State will know these losses, and it will pounce on it, right?" ”
Although he knew that what Fan Li said was the truth, Lin Yuyan couldn't help but ask: "Isn't your country afraid, my Great Qin is also the same as the Wu country, and I don't move?" ”
"I can't ask for it......" Fan Li said these four words with a smile.
Lin Yuyan was so angry by Fan Li's expression that Lin Yuyan couldn't help but threaten Wu Guo to Fan Li: "It's still the same sentence, Wu Guo's actions in Penglihu have violated the agreement of the princes of the Xincai Alliance, and it should be told to many allies, including...... King of Chu! ”
Fan Li had already restrained his original pretended smile, but had a serious expression that he had never had before, and that look made Lin Yuyan see a trace of obsession hidden in Fan Li's heart.
After a long silence between the two, Fan Li finally sighed and asked Lin Yuyan, "In this way, what is the benefit to the Qin State?" ”
"I just don't want the soldiers of Great Qin to succumb to death on this senseless battlefield!"
"Qu Death......" Fan Li smiled, and immediately retorted Lin Yuyan and replied: "In the world of great contention, in the world of great chaos, don't you feel a little self-deceived when Gongzi Qin says this?" ”
"Self-deception? ......" Lin Yuyan looked at Fan Li, shook his head, and replied: "Fan Zi still doesn't know why I think so arbitrarily in my heart, I am not the appearance of a generation of virtuous ministers. ”
"So what? A gentleman is not confined to small sections, and those who know the times are Junjie......" Fan Li looked at Lin Yuyan, and threw out another condition that Lin Yuyan couldn't refuse: "Fan Li's visit this time is not to make a big fuss, but to capture Yancheng for the Qin State, and he is here to offer Ji'er!" ”
"Suggestions?" Lin Yuyan instinctively wanted to ask "what is Fan Zi's plan", but when the words came to his mouth, he suddenly stopped, and looked at Fan Li at the moment, the latter still had that incomprehensible expression, and couldn't help but say the prediction in his heart: "Wu Guo can throw out this condition that Daqin can't refuse, and this son has reason to believe that what Wu Guo is trying is probably not Jing Guo, but ......."
Before Lin Yuyan could say it completely, Fan Li interrupted him: "Your Highness is cautious...... Wu and Qin are thousands of miles apart, no matter how much they calculate, I am afraid that they will not be able to calculate half of the benefits of Qin, Qin has obtained Yancheng, north of the river, there is no city that can block Qin's soldiers, I am afraid that even Chu may not be able to catch up with the speed of Qin's attack on Yingdu, isn't it? ”
"Furthermore, taking a step back, after capturing Yancheng, the land north of the river has already been pocketed by Great Qin, and it is within reach, and it is all up to the Qin State to cross the river and capture Yingdu, so isn't it more beneficial to the Qin State?"
Speaking of this, Fan Li paused, and then threw out the last words that hit Lin Yuyan's heart: "Coincidentally, what a certain person thinks in his heart, without wasting a single soldier, can make Yancheng at his fingertips, isn't Qin State still unmoved in the face of this land in the north of the Yangtze River?" ”
……
Fan Li left Nanjun a few days later, and Lin Yuyan calculated the distance of the envoys of the two armies, I am afraid that when he got Lin Yuyan's letter that day, Fan Li rushed over non-stop, far less indifferent than he appeared.
I have to say that Fan Li's words persuaded Lin Yuyan, whether it is an expedient measure or a long-term view, the land of Jiangbei will become a powerful country under the rule of Great Qin, compared to this, Wu Guo's exhaustive calculations, Lin Yuyan does not care very much, after all, Fan Li is right, Wu and Qin are thousands of miles apart, where can you calculate Great Qin?
Now Lin Yuyan feels that he has guessed the intention of Wu State, but he is using this attack on Jing State to weaken the national strength of Chu State, this is a yang plan, even if Lin Yuyan reports to Chu State, it is not beneficial to Great Qin, but it has provoked Wu and Chu Both countries are unhappy, and it is possible to beat a rake at that time, and Daqin will be the culprit of destroying the covenant.
There is no reason to say that in this world, whose fists and stools dominate the direction between the princes, and even while Wu and Chu seem to be in harmony, they are also intriguing with each other to reduce each other's strength, and the wise and virtuous people of Chu can see it, and the conceited and eloquent King of Chu can also see it.
So, Lin Yuyan just didn't care about this matter anymore, which was right and which was wrong, Daqin only cleared the snow in front of the door!
Therefore, Lin Yuyan's attention fell on Fan Li's plan to capture Yancheng by Daqin, which Fan Li offered when he was leaving, and I have to say that Fan Li's strategy was really impeccable, so that Lin Yuyan, who had been trapped in Yancheng for nearly a month, finally dispatched troops again and arranged troops and horses according to what Fan Li said.
Later, Lin Yuyan also sent the official envoy of Great Qin to Jingling, which was governed by the Jiangxia County Government, and invited Na Huan Yu to come to help.
