After Zhao Yong and Zhao Xue listened to Tian Buli's narration, they were stunned. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info They really didn't expect that the raging tide set off by Gongsun Yan, the powerful alliance of the Seven Kingdoms to attack Zhao, really had a way to break it!

Although this is only a plan, the plan proposed by Dai Yan has already described in great detail how to deal with various countries, and of course they know that these plans are practical!

Zhao Yong immediately bowed heavily to the east and said, "Master has a life-saving grace for me Zhao Guo, and I, Zhao Yong, will never forget this kindness in this life!" ”

Tian Buli was also very happy to hear Zhao Yong's words, but then he said: "Your Majesty, now this plan to deal with the Seven Kingdoms Attack Zhao Alliance is still just a plan, if you can really break up the Seven Nations Alliance and solve the crisis of Zhao Kingdom, you must have talents to send envoys to various countries." My son-in-law suggested that the king should secretly send an envoy to travel now, and the main points of lobbying Chu and Korea were also written on this letter, so you can read it first, and then send an envoy according to the above points! ”

Zhao Yong accepted Tian Buli's opinion.

The next thing was much simpler, and with such a practical strategy, Zhao Yong immediately summoned Zhao Guoqun's ministers and announced in public that he had found a way to deal with the Seven Nations Alliance. In order to prevent leaks, he just sent three envoys to foreign countries and told them the trick of lobbying!

This action to dismantle the Seven Nations Alliance was carried out by Zhao Yong himself under Dai Yan's remote command!

In the Yingdu of Chu, after Lou Xu, the envoy of Zhao State, revealed his identity, he soon got an audience from the King of Chu.

As soon as Xiong Huai, the king of Chu, saw Lou Zhuan, he stared at Lou Chu with a contemptuous look and said, "What does Zhao mean when he comes to my Chu State?" Now that my Seven Kingdoms have formed an alliance to defeat Zhao, and the Zhao Kingdom is already in danger, Zhao Hou sent you here, but what benefit is there to give to the widow? But the widow tells you that even if Zhao Hou promises me more benefits, it is impossible for the widow to withdraw from the Zhao Alliance! ”

Lou Xuan didn't mind at all, and said to the King of Chu: "Zhao Hou sent Zai to the Chu State, and he really hoped that the King of Chu would withdraw from the Seven Nations Alliance, but he didn't let Zai promise any benefits to the Chu State!" ”

As soon as Yin Zhaoyang heard this, he immediately sneered: "Then what is the point of Zhao Envoy coming here now?" It's better to return to Zhao State earlier and face the wrath of my Seven Kingdoms army! ”

After speaking, he instructed the guards to drive Lou out of the Chu court. Seeing this, Lou slowly said: "Before Zhao Hou sent me to Chu, although he did not promise the benefits of Chu, he had a word in Chu, and if Chu listened to it, he could solve the danger of destroying the country!" ”

As soon as Zhaoyang heard this, he immediately refuted loudly: "It's just nonsense!" Now it is your Zhao State that is in danger of losing the country, what does it matter to my Chu State? Zhao Guo made such alarmist words, could it really make my Chu State jealous? Then he continued to instruct the guards to want to drive Lou out of the house.

However, when the king of Chu heard what the other party said, he was also a little interested, he stopped Zhaoyang's behavior, and then said to Lou slowly: "Please also ask Zhao Envoy to tell me carefully, why is my Chu country in danger of losing the country?" Isn't it your Zhao State that has this crisis? ”

Lou Yan's face did not change, and said: "Now that the Seven Kingdoms are attacking Zhao, my Zhao State is indeed facing the danger of losing the country. However, if my Zhao State really perishes, will the Chu State have a good life? Far from it!

Chu and Zhao, one in the south and the other in the north, are mixed between the two countries with Korea and Wei, the territory is not bordering, and the two sides have no grudges in the past! However, the state of Chu listened to the slander of the state of Wei and intended to cross thousands of miles to attack Zhao, and if the state of Chu won, the territory of the state of Zhao obtained would only be an enclave. With such a territory, does the Chu State really have confidence that it can keep it? In this way, it is really unwise for Chu to join the Seven Nations Alliance to defeat Zhao, in order to ask the king of Chu to investigate it! ”

When the king of Chu heard Lou Zhuan's words, he was not moved, and then said: "Wei has promised our country, if our country joins the alliance to attack Zhao and destroy Zhao, Wei will cede the eight southern cities and our country. In this way, although our country cannot directly benefit from the Zhao State, it is also profitable, how can our Chu State refuse to attack Zhao? ”

Hearing this, Lou Xuan just laughed.

"Why is Zhao making you laughing?" King Chu asked curiously.

"I'm laughing at the fact that the state of Chu is short-sighted, and the state of Wei bought off the state of Chu with such a small profit, making the state of Chu give up the future!" Lou replied.

Zhaoyang immediately came out and said: "Zhao Envoy doesn't have to use such provocative methods, just say anything directly!" ”

Lou Xuan's expression was straight, and then he said solemnly: "Fang is under the throne, after many major defeats, the Wei State has already weakened, and the only people who can be called powerful countries are the three kingdoms of Qi, Qin, and Chu. The three countries are located in the east, west and south directions of the world, and the three countries contain each other, so that everyone does not dare to act rashly, and the world is peaceful.

However, now that the Seven Kingdoms are attacking Zhao, if the Zhao State is destroyed, the Qin State and the Qi State will inevitably be able to obtain a large amount of territory from the Zhao State, and their strength will inevitably surge! The income of the Chu State is only the eight provinces in the south of the Wei State, and the benefits are limited, which can be said to be even weaker than the surging strength of the Qi and Qin countries. The three kingdoms of Qi, Qin, and Chu were originally close in strength to balance each other, but once the strength of the Chu State weakened, would Qi and Qin let the Chu State go? And the weakened state of Chu naturally could not resist the attack of the two great powers, and at that time, Wei and Han, who were sandwiched between Qin and Qi, might also be like Han, Yan, and Zhongshan attacking Zhao today, and they would be coerced to attack Chu! In this way, the situation of my Zhao State today is the situation of the Chu State tomorrow, and in this way, the seven-hundred-year-old society of the Chu State will be destroyed! ”

As soon as Lou Yan's remarks were spoken, the court of Chu State was shocked! Everyone thinks about it carefully, this Zhao envoy's words do make sense!

Cutting down Zhao is indeed not good for the Chu State, but will fatten the Qin State and the Qi State. The strong rise of these two countries has already put great pressure on the current Chu State, if you get a large territory of the Zhao State again, under the surge in strength, it is really not something that the Chu State can deal with!

After the ministers of Chu State whispered, some ministers of Chu State jumped out to persuade them, and everyone saw that it was Qu Yuan, the left disciple!

Qu Yuan said to the King of Chu: "Great King, Qu Yuan thinks that Zhao Envoy is reasonable!" Taking advantage of the funeral to defeat Zhao is a faux pas. If the Zhao State is really destroyed, it will benefit the two countries of Qi and Qin, which will be very detrimental to our Chu State! Especially the Qin State, now abolishing etiquette, using cool methods, everyone is warlike, it is the state of tigers and wolves, and it should be the biggest enemy of my Chu State today! Your Majesty implores the King to withdraw from the Seven Nations Alliance! ”

With Qu Yuan's words, many ministers of Chu stood up one by one, hoping that the king of Chu would withdraw from the Seven Nations Alliance.

In fact, the king of Chu was also moved by the words of Zhao Envoy just now, and when he saw the reaction of the ministers of Chu now, he no longer had the heart to kill Zhao in his heart. However, just let him withdraw from the Seven Nations Alliance and lose his trust in the world, he still has some regrets on his face. Then he asked the ministers of the Chu State: "What are the changes in my Chu State now?" ”

As soon as he heard the words of the King of Chu, Zuo Sima Zhaohua immediately stepped out and said: "King Qiqi, now there are remnants of the Southern Yue Kingdom who have raised troops to make trouble, which is not good for my Chu State!" ”

As soon as the king of Chu heard this, he immediately replied to Zhao Slip: "In that case, then the widow will send you to the southern Yue Kingdom to quell the rebellion!" ”

Then he turned to Lou Shu and said to him: "Zhao Envoy has also seen that now that there is civil strife in my Chu State, I am no longer able to defeat Zhao, and my Chu State will soon withdraw from the Seven Nations Alliance." The widow hoped that Zhao Envoy would bring a message to Zhao Hou, saying that my Chu State is willing to non-aggression with Zhao State and form an alliance forever! ”

Zhao Guo Dai to the north, between the ridge of Gouzhu, there is a section of extremely dangerous place, the place of legend only wild geese can fly through, this ridge is called Yanmen Mountain. On this Yanmen Mountain, Zhao established a simple pass to guard against the invasion of Beidi, and this pass was the famous Yanmen Pass in later generations!

To the north of Yanmen Pass, it is the largest basin in Shanxi - Datong Basin, at this time the world does not know much about the outside of Yanmen Pass, and thinks that it is a vast desert out of this pass.

At this time, at Yanmen Pass, a caravan came from Handan, the capital of Zhao, and one of the tall men asked the principal of the caravan: "Lord Wu Shang, you said that you often have close trade contacts with Lou Fu, and you can find Lou Fu's tribe even when it is about to enter winter, but is it true?" ”

The Ukrainian merchant just smiled and said, "Brother Qiu is a person recommended by Handan's distinguished guests, how dare he deceive you?" Don't worry, as long as you follow us and others, you will definitely be able to find Lou Fu and meet Lou Fu King! ”

Although this Ukrainian merchant is just a horse dealer on the surface, everyone in Handan knows that this person is by no means a simple person!

And so it is, can a horse dealer who can easily come up with thousands of horses be a simple character? This Wu merchant lord actually has a deeper identity: the young master of Wu Shi Rong!

Wushi Rong is also a branch of the northern nomadic tribe outside of the Chinese civilization. Unlike other nomadic tribes who relied on brute force to raid south, the Wushi Rong preferred to do business with the Chinese nations. And the biggest business they did was to monopolize the jade trade on the Silk Road between the East and the West, and obtained a large number of gorgeous artifacts from the Central Plains such as pottery, silk, etc. from Qin, Wei, Zhao and other countries, and then sold Hetian jade from the Western Regions, or good horses on the grassland to the Central Plains countries, and grabbed huge profits from them!

And like now, taking the lead in introducing the envoys of the Zhao State to meet with the Loufu tribe is naturally one of their incidental businesses.
