Chapter 186: Three Years Later, the Strategy to Calm the World.
Time flies, and people always lose inadvertently, instead of getting.
It has been five years since Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, came to this world, and at this time, five years have passed since the breakthrough of Xiaxia, and three years have passed since Xiang Tian implemented the law change.
In three years, due to the implementation of the law change, today's Chu State has a good way, the army is neat, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and they are prosperous.
……
Xiang Tian sat alone in the palace of the King of Chu, his expression was calm, he knew in his heart that the prosperity of the Chu State had just begun, and as long as time passed, the advantages of the Chu Land would be further revealed.
Especially because the court of Chu encouraged childbearing, five years later, the population of Chu showed a terrifying growth.
It's just that Xiang Tian knows in his heart that these people can join the army, at least after seven or eight years, although they can't increase immediately, but this is undoubtedly the foundation of the Chu State.
Once the war began, what could ultimately determine the outcome was the foundation of a country, the huge population, and the implementation of a whip law after the household and the people, which greatly eased the finances of the Chu State.
Especially in the past three years, the wind and rain in Chu have been smooth, and there has been a bumper harvest every year, compared with the Chu State that was defeated and went south, it is undoubtedly much stronger now.
At the same time, in the past three years, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, went north, and Moling and Pengcheng finally merged, which greatly increased the strength of Chu in an instant.
"Your Majesty, Prince, now our country has 200,000 troops, and there are bumper harvests year after year, and the surplus grain in the treasury is enough to support a large-scale war."
Taiwei Xiang Tuo's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he said to Xiang Yu and Xiang Tian, the overlord of Chu: "The minister thought that he should send troops to attack north and restore the nine counties of Chu. ”
"Please give the king an order, attack the Central Plains in the north, and restore the nine counties of the old Chu!"
For a while, the civil and military officials of the Chu State became excited, especially the military generals, who knew in their hearts that this was the first real war in the Chu State since the implementation of the 20th military meritorious title system.
And for them, war is a field property, a meritorious service, and a power, and the civil and military forces of the Chu State, who have been patient, can no longer sit still.
"Hmm."
Slightly bowed, Chu Overlord Xiang Yu's eyes were like a knife, and there was a touch of excitement in it, since he broke through the siege, he dreamed of fighting the world again.
Now that five years have passed, the state of Chu finally has the strength to fight again.
Thoughts flickered in his heart, Xiang Yu glanced at Xiang Tian, who was calm and composed, and said, "Prince, what do you think about this matter?" ”
Now, at this time, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, no longer dares to ignore Xiang Tian, he knows very well in his heart that Chu has today, and it is basically all the credit of Xiang Tian.
Moreover, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are basically Xiang Tian's direct cronies, although he is still the king of Chu, but the essence of the power of Chu is still in Xiang Tian's hands.
Naturally, he didn't dare to ignore Xiang Tian's opinion.
……
"Father, my son-in-law thinks that my Chu State has been recuperating for three years, and it is time for the people of the world to see the sharpness of our army again."
Speaking of this, Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, became resolute and said, "However, Erchen thinks that when he sends troops, he should not go north to the Central Plains, but should first crusade against Zhuyue." ”
"As long as our army breaks through Minyue, we can stabilize our rear, and at the same time, Lujiang County, Zhang County, and Huiji County will have no worries."
"Then send troops to Changsha State, and after the annexation of Changsha State, our army will unite Hengshan and Linjiang two countries and immediately attack Huainan State."
"In this way, my country will occupy the land of Minzhong County, Huiji County, Zhang County, Surabaya County, Donghai County, Jiujiang County, Changsha County, and Lujiang County, even if it is not far from the peak of my Chu State."
"Wait for us to break through these places, and then my father will make Zhao Tuo the king of Nanyue in the name of King Bo, paralyze Zhao Tuo, and then take the opportunity to attack Qianzhong County and force Bashu Hanzhong."
"In this way, except for the Linjiang Kingdom and the Hengshan Kingdom, the entire south will be included in my Chu State, which is equivalent to restoring the territory of the Chu State at the peak of the Warring States Period."
Speaking of this, Xiang Tianhu, the prince of Chu, was like a knife, and his whole person was filled with strong self-confidence, and he glanced at the civil and military officials present, and said.
"At this moment, if you go north to Guanzhong, you can also go to Liang and Qi, and then sweep the world and complete the feat of unifying the Central Plains!"
Xiang Tian knew in his heart that the Changsha State at this time was alone, and it was not enough to fight against the Chu army, after all, without the help of King Hengshan, it would definitely be able to capture it in a short time.
Especially at this time, with Linjiang and Hengshan as a battle, the state of Chu did not need to worry about being threatened by the Han army in a short period of time.
"Hoo ......"
The civil and military officials present were all talented people of the Chu State, and those who could enter this meeting were all important ministers of the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries, and they were Xiang Tian's descendants.
This is also the fundamental reason why Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, spoke freely and was not afraid of leaking it out at all.
Whether it is Li Zuoche or the Three Princes and Nine Qings, they all know that the strategy of Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, is the most suitable for the current Chu State, after all, the Chu State has just been revived at this moment.
can't withstand too much tossing, and because of this, the strategy of Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, is the best.
"What the prince said is very true, but in the prince's opinion, how much is it appropriate to send troops this time, and who should be used as the general?"
Since everyone else can see that Xiang Tian's strategy is extremely feasible, as the number one god of war in the world, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, has naturally seen it a long time ago.
At this moment, what he cares about is how many troops to use, and who will be more suitable!
"Father, my son thinks that he should lead an army of 100,000, after all, whether it is Yingbu, the king of Huainan, or Peng Yue, the king of Liang, Liu Ji, the king of Han, and Han Xin, the king of Qi, are all watching from the sidelines."
"If the number of troops mobilized this time is too large, war breaks out, and it cannot be evacuated in a short time, and the northern princes go south, it will be a great terror for our country."
"As for who will be the commander, please choose from my father!"
Xiang Tian knew in his heart that at this time, he could not have a bad relationship with Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, and chose the power of the main general, which was the most basic symbol of royal power.
In the past, when the Overlord of Chu was not there, it was not inappropriate for him to give a direct order, but now that Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Chu, is in the court, he must respect this.
"Hmm."
Bowing his head slightly, a touch of surprise flashed in the tiger's eyes, satisfied with the knowledge of the crown prince Xiang Tian, but after nodding, he suddenly didn't know how to choose.
After all, whether it is Taiwei Xiang Tuo or Imperial Doctor Xiang Sheng, it is okay to attack one place, but it is a bit insufficient to be responsible for destroying the country.
After all, destroying its country requires not only strategic suppression, but also political oppression, and Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, knows in his heart that in the entire Chu country, there are only two people who are most suitable to send troops.
One is himself, and the other is Prince Xiang Tian.
It's just that he also knows that this strategy was proposed by Xiang Tian, and it is much easier to implement than him.
