Chapter 92: 100,000 War Horses for a Southbound Road (Ask for Recommendation, Ask for Collection.) )
Wu Shi was a clever strategist, and he knew in his heart that if he wanted to persuade a prince like Zhang Er, the king of Zhao, the only way to move him was to move him with emotion, and then move with interests.
In short, it is to know the benefit, and the metaphor is to the righteousness.
He knew in his heart that a person like Zhao Wang Zhang Er, who was born as a ranger, valued his own reputation, especially his betrayal of the overlord of Western Chu, had long been an established fact.
At this time, only by making a fuss here can we dispel the worries of Zhang Er, the king of Zhao, so as to borrow the way for the Chu army to go south.
Wu Shi knew in his heart that time was the biggest dilemma for the Chu army, and at this time he had to go south as soon as possible, only in this way could he completely reverse the situation in the world.
……
After Wu She's first and second questions, King Zhao Zhang Er was speechless, because it was obvious that in this matter, he was ashamed of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.
The grace of the king is greater than the sky, even if he devotes his whole life, he may not be able to repay it, although Zhang Er, the king of Zhao, has been the king for a long time, but his ranger temperament has already penetrated into the bone marrow.
"King Xiang does have a monstrous grace for Lone, but Mr. Wu Shi must have known the situation at that time, Lone is alone under the mighty soldiers of King Han Xin of Qi, and if he does not compromise, he will die!"
Zhao Wang Zhang knew in his heart that this point was the consensus of the people in the world, even if he refuted it, it would only make people laugh, and the thoughts in his heart flickered, and he calculated the truth.
"Yes."
Wu Shi is not surprised by such an answer, no matter who will whitewash himself, even the worst person is the same, the matter at that time has passed, and there is no point in pursuing it now.
This time, Wu Shi came for only one purpose, that is, to use the channel for the Chu army to go south, as long as he completes this task, no one cares about these old bad debts at all.
Because Western Chu is different from the past, there is no foothold to embarrass King Zhao Zhang Er.
……
The thought flickered in his heart, and at this time, Wu Shi grinned, glanced at King Zhao Zhang Er and Prince Zhang Ao, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"Dare to ask King Zhao, if the prince of Chu leads the army south, can he win the battle with the strength of the Zhao State, even if he wins the battle, how will he face the princes who are eyeing him all around at that time?"
If the two questions at the beginning of Wu Shi were just a matter of knowing love and reasoning, then the last question at this time was a real sentence of punishment.
With this question, the entire Zhao Palace's palace fell silent all of a sudden, and even the sound of each other's breathing was quiet and audible.
"Mr. Wu She, do you know that you are threatening Gu and threatening Zhao Guo?"
Wu She's expression remained unchanged, he looked at King Zhao Zhang Er, paused word by word, and said: "King Zhao must also be clear about the current situation, and it is a foregone conclusion that Prince Chu will go south. ”
"If King Zhao doesn't borrow the road, then the Chu army can only open the way by means of war, and then go south to Jiangdong."
"This is not a threat, but a piece of advice, my prince is unwilling to go to war with King Zhao, otherwise he would not have sent him to the south to meet King Zhao."
"Hoo ......"
Exhaling deeply, King Zhao opened his ears and said: "This matter is very important, and the impact is even more extraordinary. ”
"Good."
……
Seeing Wu Shi nodding his head and saying good, a gleam flashed in King Zhao's cloudy eyes, and he said to Song Yang, the minister of state.
"The Minister of State took Mr. Wu Shi to the official post."
"No."
……
At this moment, Zhao Wang Zhang Er was already moved, he was already old, and he didn't have the vigor of his youth and the competitive heart.
What's more, he knew in his heart that the overlord of Western Chu was still alive, don't look at the weak situation of Western Chu at the moment, but there may not be no chance of reversal.
At that time, Liu Jibu, the king of the Han Dynasty, was also trapped in the Bashu Han, and now it is sweeping the Central Plains, and the world is ten, and the Han Dynasty accounts for five of them, so as to become ninety-five.
The King of Han can do it, and so is the Overlord of Western Chu.
……
"The minister/son-in-law meets the king/father."
"It's all free of courtesy."
……
King Zhao Zhang Ergao sat on the head, looked at the crown prince Zhang Ao and the minister of state Song Yang and later the general Zhang Jing, and said.
"The words of the envoy of the Chu army, Wu She, the state minister and the crown prince have also heard it, what do you think about this matter?"
At this moment, the four most powerful people in Zhao Guo had solemn expressions, their eyes flashing, and each of them had different inner thoughts.
"Your Majesty, what Wu Shi said is true, Prince Chu led the army north to the Central Plains, reversing the general trend of the world in one fell swoop, and at this moment he wants to go south, this is simply an impossible fact."
Song Yang's eyes flashed with a gleam, looked at King Zhao's Zhang Er, and said, "What's more, the performance of Prince Xiang Tian of Chu since his breakthrough is amazing. ”
"Even if our army finally blocks the Chu army led by the Prince of Chu, I'm afraid that our army has already suffered heavy losses at that time, how will we face the surrounding princes at that time!"
"Therefore, the minister thought that he would take advantage of the road to let the prince of Chu go south, but this route must be drawn according to our requirements."
"Hmm."
With a slight bow, King Zhao Zhang Er set his eyes on the general Zhang Jing, and muttered for a moment, saying.
"General, if we reject Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, can our army block the Chu army?"
Hearing this, Zhang Jing shook his head, looked at Zhang Er, the king of Zhao, and said: "Your Majesty, Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, is like a god with soldiers, and he is almost no less than the overlord of Western Chu. ”
"Under Hai, the King of Han and the King of Qi led 700,000 allied troops could not leave him, which shows that the Prince of Chu is amazing in the way of using soldiers."
"What's more, the art of war is cloudy, and there is no obstacle to returning to the teacher, and the minister agrees with the opinion of the prime minister."
……
The head of the civil and military forces under his hand agreed on the same opinion, which made King Zhao Zhang Er's expression change greatly, and after a long time, he said to the crown prince Zhang Ao.
"What do you mean, Prince?"
As Zhang Er's son-in-law, Zhang Ao's position in Zhao State can be said to be pivotal, and with such a huge decision, it is impossible for him to cross Zhang Ao.
"Father, although Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, is not as old as the weak crown, he has a deep attainment in the way of using soldiers, and his sons think that our country should not be such a hero."
"It's okay to borrow the way, but in addition to the route that the minister said is decided by the father, the Chu army must pay a certain price!"
"In this way, not only will the world continue to maintain a chaotic situation, but it will also strengthen our army while weakening the Chu army."
……
"Good."
Nodding, King Zhao Zhang Er looked at the Minister of State Song Yang, and the general Zhang Jing, and said.
"Just talk to Mr. Wu Shi as the prince said."
"No."
……
Mayi.
In the camp of the Chu army, Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, put down the books in his hand and looked at Wu She, who came in a hurry.
"Zuo Junshi, does King Zhao Zhang Er have promised to borrow the Tao alone?"
This is what Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, is most concerned about, yes, as soon as he speaks, he goes straight to the point.
……
"Prince, King Zhao agreed to borrow the road, but asked our army to provide 100,000 war horses, and the road to the south is up to them."
