Chapter 54: Promise to be the leader of the alliance (ask for subscription!)
Outside the Yingdu, the war is still the same.
The land full of blood and fire is full of boiling murderous aura.
The Jin Qi attack was like a frenzied wave, and the coalition army defended like a dam blocking the sea.
The frenzy was ferocious, and each round of attack always cut off parts of the dam, and the blood and water were all over the place, watering a red land.
Not to be outdone, the dam is also not to be outdone, and with each wave, part of the rapids is left permanently and cannot return.
Seeing the casualties continue to increase, in mid-air, the faces of the kings of the fourteen kingdoms gradually turned pale.
Finally, the king of Hu couldn't bear it anymore and took the lead in speaking: "If you continue to fight, the losses will inevitably be heavy, let's negotiate peace with Jin Qi!"
"Good!"
As soon as this statement came out, all the kings echoed it.
For the monarchs of these small countries, it is already an impressive achievement to be able to fight to such an extent.
The best result is to force peace by war, retreat from a big country and strengthen the army, shock the world, and then carve up the Chu State.
is not only eager for fame and fortune, but also looking forward and backward, with luck.
This is the rabble.
"Then you have to choose an alliance leader to have the possibility of peace talks!"
Gu Cheng had already expected it, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he turned to look at them.
"Alliance leader?"
All the kings glanced at each other, their eyes flickered slightly, and they said in unison: "Of course, we are headed by Prince Longyang!"
"Everyone's love!"
Gu Chengdao: "The position of the leader of the alliance, I, Jiang Guo, will never dare to accept it!"
The kings were stunned when they heard this.
The alliance was formed by Jiang Guo, and the one who resisted Jin Qi was Jiang Guo, not for the position of the leader of the alliance, why?
What's more, if Jiang Guo is not allowed to be the leader of the alliance, no other country has this qualification, and no other country dares!
"Don't worry, I have already made a candidate!"
Gu Cheng flipped his palm, controlled the flying boat, drilled out of the clouds, and a beam of light enveloped Yingdu, falling on the prince in the royal city.
"Prince Xiong Zhen, please come up and talk about it!"
"Doctor!"
The faces of the kings changed slightly, and the one who was even more nervous was the prince of Chu below.
"Your Highness!"
Shen Baoxu held Prince Chu's hand, stared at his eyes tightly, and said word by word: "Bear the burden of humiliation and tide over the difficulties, in order to plan for the future!"
Now the situation of Da Chu is that the front door rejects the tiger and the back door enters the wolf.
The two countries of Jin and Qi are tigers, and the alliance of small countries is a pack of wolves, and they all covet the fat of Da Chu.
The lesser of two evils, any reasonable person standing in the position of the Chu State can make a judgment.
They would rather win the alliance of small nations than win.
The former still has hope of reversing, and the latter is the complete destruction of the country.
"Lone understands!"
Prince Chu has experienced ups and downs in a short period of time, and he has matured a lot, gritting his teeth and nodding.
Even if he is humiliated again, as long as he can keep Da Chu, he will endure it.
Swish!
Seeing that the prince of Chu turned into a ray of light and ascended into the Qingyin Boat, Shen Baoxu burst into tears.
Da Chu, a top power, actually wants to seek perfection from a dozen small countries, and his dignity is gone.
"For today's plan, the only way is to retreat to Jin Qi first, and then ask Qin for help, so as to chase away the small country!"
When he was sad and angry, Shen Baoxu also began to think of a way to drive the tiger and devour the wolf, and his brows were furrowed.
Qin is also a tiger and wolf, although he has a marriage friendship with Chu, but it is more for the sake of connecting Chu to resist Jin.
After all, Qin bordered Jin, and was so pressed by the world's number one power that he couldn't raise his head, so he could only shrink in Hangu Pass.
The destruction of the Chu State is indeed not in the interests of the Qin State, but it would be too naïve to say that they would sincerely come over to help.
At the end of the day, it is still interests.
"Even if the land is cut, you have to lure the Qin people out of the customs and be suppressed by the Jin State!"
"If you preach the threat of Wu again, the Qi State and the Dongyi Ministries will not spare him!"
"As for the Jiang country, there are more than a dozen small countries under his command, and he is very authoritative, where is the Son of Heaven placed, as long as the Son of Heaven speaks, the Quartet will crusade, and the name is justified!"
"With such a divide and rule, I Da Chu will have room to breathe!"
Shen Baoxu took a deep breath and tentatively set a general policy.
These things sound simple, but in fact they are easier said than done, in the past, the Great Chu dominated the south, and the horses stepped on the Central Plains, and there was no need to join forces at all, but now they have to do it.
However, at this moment, the light of the Qing Shenzhou in the sky fell, and the prince of Chu returned to the palace.
Shen Baoxu hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to comfort him, but when he saw Prince Chu's expression, he was stunned.
Because in a short period of time, Prince Chu changed his previous depression and became energetic.
Such a contrast made Shen Baoxu unhappy and surprised, and hurriedly asked: "Your Highness, then the prince of Jiang Guo invited you to go up, what is the matter?"
The prince of Chu said diligently: "The prince of Jiang Guo promised to be the leader of the alliance, the kings of all countries were reluctant at first, but they were all subdued by him, the alliance is used by the lonely, and my great Chu crisis can be solved!"
"The position of the alliance leader?"
Shen Baoxu trembled, and exclaimed: "Absolutely not!"
Prince Chu was originally full of joy, but when he heard this, his face suddenly sank: "Why not?"
Shen Baoxu explained: "The alliance leader is a transgression, and his power is in conflict with the uncle, and he cannot be sealed by Zhou Tianzi, and his name is not right!"
Prince Chu disdainful: "My Great Chu has always disobeyed the Zhou etiquette, and the Son of Heaven is just an ornament!"
Shen Baoxu's mouth was full of bitterness: "It's different! It's different!"
At this time and at that time, the state of Chu suffered from this difficulty, and its national strength declined sharply, and it will face the crisis of the Quartet next, and it is no longer the great Chu who announced that the princes of the Central Plains "I am a barbarian".
Although Zhou Tianzi is an ornament, he is still nominally the lord of the world, and every year each country has tribute, if he wants to damage the common interests of the princes, then no one wants to, but if it is only for one country, then the hostile country is very willing to conquer at the will of the Son of Heaven.
And now that there are more than a dozen countries in the alliance, the Chu State has proclaimed itself the leader of the alliance again, what is this for?
The Son of Heaven has been so miserable that he has died in name only, and he must even be deprived of the last power of the seal?
That week, the Son of Heaven will definitely fight with it!
Besides, is there a promise for the position of the leader of the alliance?
All hegemonic positions have always been won by oneself, not given by others.
It's like Qi Huan Jinwen, Chu Zhuang Qin Mu, which one is not a monstrous power, coercive in the world, and let Zhou Tianzi pinch his nose and appoint, and now the prince of Chu is forcibly promoted to the position of the so-called alliance leader, isn't he roasted on the fire?
"This is Jiang Guo's plan, it is more vicious than Sun Wu's stealing the city and destroying the country!"
Shen Baoxu was bitter, and persuaded him again and again: "Your Highness, if you respond, not only will you wait like a puppet, the princes of the world are already eyeing my Great Chu, once Zhou Tianzi speaks, he will inevitably attack it in groups, and those small countries will rush in, and my Great Chu will not be able to cope with it!"
Jiang and Wu are both small countries, and they cannot swallow elephants with snakes in a short period of time and encroach on the vast territory of Great Chu.
But the so-called ants bite more elephants, if there are more such small countries, Da Chu will not be able to parry.
Prince Chu said with a smile: "Aiqing doesn't have to worry, Gu Xin knows that Prince Jiang has bad intentions, but he also has weaknesses, Jiang Guo pursues Confucianism and Taoism, and he doesn't want to lose his reputation, so he will give up the position of the leader of the alliance, and after Gu ascends the throne, he will connect Kong Qiu to Great Chu and pass on Confucianism!"
He had long heard that Kong Qiu was a well-educated person, and he was very moved to see that Jiang Guo pursued this way, and he was strong enough to compete with Jin Qi in a short period of time.
This time, Dachu suffered a heavy blow, Fei Wuji Xiang Ying died, and a large number of officials exchanged blood, just reusing Confucian disciples.
In history, this prince of Chu was the king of Chu Zhao, who admired Kong Qiu very much, and sealed it for 700 miles in the book society, but was stopped left and right, and the world got what he wanted.
The prince of Chu is not stupid, he has a comprehensive consideration, as long as the Chu State pursues Confucianism and Taoism, and the Jiang State respects him as the leader of the alliance, if it is harmed, it will violate the Confucian etiquette and morality, and at that time Kong Qiu was the first to refuse.
Most of Jiang's officials were born in Confucianism, and once Confucius turned against him, Jiang's country was unfair, and he called on all countries to destroy it as the leader of the alliance, so that he could be cocooned and bound himself!
Shen Baoxu wanted to persuade again, but Prince Chu waved his hand, unwilling to listen again: "Looking ahead and looking back, there is nothing to do, and if you don't dare to ask for the position of the leader of the alliance sent to the door, then my Great Chu will really collapse!"
With that, he walked towards the temple.
Shen Baoxu's heart sank deeply, and he called, "Your Highness, where are you going?"
"Ancestral Hall!"
Prince Chu's eyes were sharp, his gaze seemed to penetrate the palace city, and fell on the Jin Qi army outside the city, revealing bitter hatred: "The position of the leader of the lonely alliance should be worthy of the name, and only then will there be a future!"
Gu Cheng told him that on the border, the Wu army had withdrawn, and the main force of Great Chu was about to rush back to the royal capital, this was the best opportunity!
A chance to annihilate the two armies of Jin and Qi!
Only in this way can we shock the world and let the princes and nations know that the sick tiger is especially powerful!
Walking into the ancestral hall, the prince of Chu knelt in front of the spiritual seat of the ancestors of the past dynasties with a puff and kowtowed:
"Please Ancestor, give the fire god wrath!"
