Two hundred and fifty-two tricks of the state of Wu
γChinese Networkγ, to provide you with wonderful reading.
As soon as Fang Li's words fell, the ministers were in an uproar, and they all looked at Wu Zixu in the center of the hall with unreasonable eyes.
Xun Yu couldn't help frowning: "Sir, Uncle Wu may have misunderstood, my lord didn't mean to be king." β
"Of course, Xun Xiangguo doesn't need to think about it." Wu Zixu smiled lightly, "Inviting the Prime Minister is just a way for my king to express his sincerity, and he doesn't mean to kill Tang Gong." β
Of course, he didn't mean that, he seriously wanted to invite King Fang Lixiang.
Originally, according to the analysis of the ministers of the Wu State, Fang Li had been fighting non-stop since the establishment of the Tang State, except for the Chu country in the south, the other three directions had been fought all over, and he must have been a person of great joy.
To deal with this kind of person, of course, you have to do what you like, which is why there is the saying of "Xiangwang".
Of course, He Lu also has his own selfishness, if Fang Li really agreed to the king, then Zhou Tianzi, who was pinched in the palm of Tang Guo's hand, would definitely not dare not agree, and he would naturally be "officially crowned king" together.
Even if Fang Li disagreed, Wu Guo's statement was enough to leave a thorn in the heart of the King of Chu.
Wu Zixu still thought so before entering Xingyang City, but after seeing the pedestrians coming and going in Xingyang, the schools and craftsmen everywhere, and the simple and heavy architectural style of the palace, Wu Zixu immediately changed his mind.
Pragmatic people are often the most disgusted with false fame, and if they still follow the established words, they will definitely anger Fang Li, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Hearing Wu Zixu say this, Fang Li slowly extinguished the anger in his heart - even if you are a close acquaintance, you really didn't plan to roast the widow on the fire.
"The alliance between Tang and Chu is unbreakable." Fang Li said, "It is impossible for the widow to form an alliance with the enemies of the allies. β
Wu Zixu shook his head helplessly, as if he had heard some great joke, and raised his voice and said:
"Tang Gong is afraid that it is a little arbitrary, Qin State will go east to resist Chu, and Wu State will also resist Chu when it moves westward, at first glance, it seems that the alliance between Chu State and Tang State can protect the northern border without worry, and he can concentrate on fighting Qin Wu.
But please think about it carefully, the east and west sides of the Chu State are powerful countries, and the south is full of wild lands, and if you want to expand your territory, you can only go north, and the north of the Chu State is not the Tang State? In time, who can guarantee that the Chu State will not fight the idea of the Tang Dynasty? β
Fang Xuan was stunned, and said quietly: "Thank you Envoy Wu for bothering me for the Tang Dynasty, but at least for a short period of time, the Chu State will not move this kind of thought." β
"Tang Gong wants to plan for the long term." Wu Zixu smiled meaningfully, "There is a Chu State and countless small countries between my Wu State and the Tang State, Chu and Tang may not have a conflict of interest in two or three years, and my Wu State will not extend its tentacles to the Tang State for at least ten years." β
Let's talk nonsense, if the widows haven't unified the Spring and Autumn Continent in ten years, without you Wu Guo plundering the tiger's whiskers, many powerful countries outside the snow-capped mountains will destroy the widows first!
Fang Li sneered again and again: "Envoy Wu doesn't need to say much, widows won't do anything to be sorry for their allies." β
Obviously rejected simply and completely, Wu Zixu didn't seem surprised, and he didn't force Fang Li to agree, so he only said to the ground: "In this way, the foreign minister has nothing to say, but please remember that my king is ready to sign an alliance with Tang Gong at any time." β
After speaking, he turned around without hesitation, as if it was just a trivial matter to form an alliance with the Tang State.
Fang Li was dumbfounded, Wu Zixu's style of coming and going was much beyond his expectations-he was ready to fight a few more rounds of mouth cannons, how could this old guy just leave?
Jia Xu, who was just quietly watching from beginning to end, was silent for a long time, suddenly raised his head, and looked directly at Fang Li with blazing eyes: "Lord, please send someone to mobilize troops and horses immediately, and immediately start training in the suburbs of Xingyang." β
Xun Yu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said quickly: "Isn't Wen He's meaning ......?" β
"That's exactly what it means!" Jia Xu's face was solemn, "Please also ask the lord to give an order immediately!" β
Fa Zheng, who had been keeping his head down, seemed to realize something, gasped suddenly, and looked at Xun Yu and Jia Xu in disbelief.
Fang Li was confused by the startled three: "What do you mean by this?" The widow remembers that the recruits recruited by Feng Xian around Xingyang are already training! β
"That's not what I mean!" Jia Xu took a deep breath, and suddenly turned around and asked Gongsun Yan, "Lord Gongsun, when will Wu Zixu and the others return to China?" β
Gongsun Yan blinked blankly: "Doctor Wu Zixu once said that he would return to the country immediately after meeting the monarch. β
"Can't let him go!" Xun Yu said decisively, "Lord Gongsun, bothering you to make a trip, whether you coax or force, in short, you can't let Wu Zixu get out of Xingyang so quickly!" β
"This ......"
Gongsun Yan looked at Fang Li, not knowing whether he should do what Xiangguo wanted.
Fang Li also realized at this time that the matter was probably not trivial, Jia Xu and the others probably didn't want to explain, but they didn't have time to explain in detail.
Out of trust, Fang Li immediately said, "Mr. Gongsun, you can go." β
Gongsun Yan solemnly agreed and immediately took the order to leave.
"Three gentlemen." Fang Li asked, "What else does the widow have to do?" β
Fang Li's reaction had grown a lot more than Zhihan Valley, Jia Xu was relieved in his heart, and arched his hand: "Please send the general to secretly mobilize elite soldiers and horses, and garrison them in the city where Wu Zixu must pass when he returns to the country, and dress up as if he has returned from training, and let Wu Zixu and others see it openly!" β
"Okay, just do as Mr. does." Fang Li turned his head to look at the generals who had already heard with straight eyes, "Fengxian, Gongming, Gongzhong." β
Lu Bu, Xu Huang, and Liu Feng came out at the same time to hug their fists: "The minister is here!" β
"I order you to immediately gather the elite infantry around Xingyang, and hurry to the road where Wu Zixu must return to the country." Fang Li instructed, "Remember, do what Mr. Wenhe says, don't show flaws!" β
The three generals made a loud promise.
Fang Li looked at Dian Wei again: "You go to the recruit camp, no matter what method you use, if you want to make those recruits look like veterans, you must not let Wu Zixu see that the elite of Xingyang has been exhausted!" β
Dian Wei clenched his fists: "No! β
After arranging it, Fang Li asked again: "Wen Ruo, Wen He, and Xiaozhi, do you have anything to add?" β
Fa Zheng instructed: "Several generals must be cautious, especially the three generals Fengxian, Wu Zixu has seen you in the palace, don't show your face in front of him, this person is both civil and military, and must not be taken lightly!" β
Although Lu Bu and the others were puzzled, they still nodded to show that they understood, and then went separately.
After a series of actions, Jia Xu still didn't breathe a sigh of relief, and put forward a series of suggestions one after another:
"Please send an envoy to secretly inform the King of Chu that he must closely guard against the borders of Wu, Chen, Cai, and Zheng in the northeast!"
"At the same time, please send secret agents to Wei and Jin, as well as Luoyang, and inform the Cao Dudu of Shaoliang City and General Cao Ren of Luoyang that you must keep an eye on Ji Zhu and Ji Zheng!"
After Jia Xu finished speaking, Xun Yu thought about it again and again, and finally said in a condensed voice: "As the worst result, please order the lord to immediately order the army to be reorganized!" β
Fang Li did everything according to the suggestions, and finally heard Xun Yu's words and was suddenly shocked: "Prepare for war? Wen Ruo, do you mean Helu...? β
"Exactly, I'm afraid I've been preparing this big game of chess for a long time." After making all the preparations, Jia Xu finally relaxed a little, but his eyes were still very solemn, "It's the minister's fault that he didn't detect Wu Guo's tricks in advance." β
Jia Xu broke up his guess and explained it in detail, and when he heard it, Fang Li and the rest of the generals turned pale and sweated coldly.
"It would be best if you could use King Xiang as a temptation to destroy the Tang Chu Alliance." Jia Xu said, "But if the lord is resolute, I am afraid that Wu Zixu's second move after returning to China is the real purpose of making Tang this time." β
"After the three families attacked Jin, my Datang army and food consumption was huge, and I was temporarily unable to fight again. Yan and Zhao are not too much different, if Wu Guo persuaded Wei and Jin, who were half-crippled and unwilling, to unite with Qin, and then coerce Zheng, Cai, and Chen to gather a large army to attack Tang and Chu at the same time, what would happen? β
Fang Li had already lost his expression: "My Datang troops are exhausted, and I can't afford to fight such a big battle anymore." If the state of Chu is surrounded by Qin and Wu at the same time, I am afraid that it will also be too busy to take care of itself..."
"Exactly." Xun Yu added, "Yan Guo is being dizzy by Qi State, I'm afraid that he won't be able to take care of this matter at all, and he can't manage this matter at all, as for Zhao Guo, Zhao Yong's snobs, if he doesn't take the opportunity to snatch the land of my Tang Kingdom, it will be considered that his benevolence and righteousness will be exhausted, let alone sending reinforcements, and Ji Zheng of Luoyang is dissatisfied with the lord..."
"Embattled." Fang Li slowly leaned back in his chair, "Everyone, it's not that people are cowardly, it's really that Datang can't afford to fight a big war for the time being!" β
"Don't worry, my lord, this is just a minister's side of the story." Xun Yu rubbed his eyes, "There is only one way to judge the truth or falsehood, if the Qin State really wants to counterattack the Chu State, in order to ensure that there is no need to worry about the future, it will definitely destroy Bashu first, and then go down the river......"
