After the ceremony was over, Qingji immediately sent Ji Zha, Sun Ping, and Sun Wu to the side hall to discuss matters.

When Qingji told the story that the Chu State did not talk about martial virtues, brazenly tore up the covenant, and raised troops to attack Wu, Ji Za and Sun Wu couldn't help but change color!

Ji Zha's face was gloomy and said, "I didn't expect the Chu people to be so disrespectful and shameless. ”

"It has only been a month since the signing of the alliance between Wu and Chu, and the Chu people dare to tear up the alliance and send troops to attack Wu! Could it be that the state of Chu is not afraid of being pointed at by thousands of people and being ridiculed by the people of the world? ”

Stinky and shameless!

This is Ji Za's only sense for the Chu State at the moment.

Qingji and Sun Wu glanced at each other and smiled bitterly!

In the past hundreds of years, the state of Chu has done less deception and abduction, and there are few brazen things?

Chu Ben Barbarian!

This sentence was said by the Chu people themselves.

The state of Chu is the first country to openly claim the king among all the vassal states divided by Zhou Tianzi!

Just because the Chu culture is far away from the Central Plains culture, it seems incompatible, such as the Zhou people Shanglong, the Chu people Shangfeng, it is difficult to integrate.

The state of Chu originally originated in the Central Plains, and its tribes used fire as a totem and claimed to be descendants of Zhurong, but in the early days of the establishment of the Shang Dynasty, because of the expansion of the Shang Dynasty, the Chu tribe was not allowed to move south, and migrated to the area of Jingshan and Danshui.

This process has lasted for hundreds of years, and it is really not easy for the Chu people to overcome obstacles and overcome difficulties!

At that time, the Chu people were already far away from the cultural circle of the Yellow River civilization in the north, but the Chu people still remembered that they were "the descendants of Emperor Gaoyang".

However, the merchants did not think that the Chu State was an old Chinese tribe, because at that time, it was not based on the bloodline of this tribe to see whether a tribe was barbarian, but more to see whether the cultural customs of this tribe were in line with the etiquette of the Central Plains!

There is no doubt that the Chu tribe, who have lived in the south for hundreds of years, although they have a kind of contempt for the surrounding tribes, are inevitably influenced by the surrounding tribes, which is far from the development of the Central Plains culture.

In the eyes of the merchants, Chu was undoubtedly a barbarian tribe!

The leader of the Chu people, Manxiong, has always regarded Chu as a barbarian by the Shang as a great shame, but the Chu people are weak and unable to resist the powerful Shang Dynasty.

It wasn't until King Wen of Zhou sent an invitation to the Chu tribe to join him in the crusade against the desolate Shang king, that Mane Xiong readily agreed, because he thought that this was an opportunity for the Chu people to return to the Chinese cultural circle and be recognized by the princes of the Central Plains.

So, Mane Xiong led the elite of the Chu people to trek thousands of miles to help the merchants!

After the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, Mane Xiong was appointed to the position of fire master because he was a descendant of Zhurong.

After accepting the appointment, Mane Bear was exhausted, and finally died of exhaustion in the position of fire master.

However, the bad news that brought the Chu people under Jingshan is not only this!

In the past, the Zhou Dynasty was divided, and the Zhou Dynasty was based on blood relations, and there were countless people with the surname Ji.

And because the Chu tribe is located in a remote area, its strength is weak, and it has no blood relationship with the Zhou royal family, it has not even been crowned a small viscount!

This is undoubtedly a huge blow to the Chu people!

It wasn't until the reign of King Cheng of Zhou that the Zhou royal family remembered the tribe that had paid almost all for the king of Zhou, and Xiong Yan, the grandson of Feng Xiong, was the viscount of fifty miles.

Although it is a viscount, there is no doubt that this means a lot to the Chu people.

This means that the Chu people have finally been accepted by the Central Plains culture, and finally recognized by the hometown in their hearts and the cultural orthodoxy in their hearts!

It's a pity that this is just wishful thinking on the part of the Chu people.

After Xiong Yi was named a viscount, King Cheng of Zhou ordered the princes to enter the court and hold the Qiyang Alliance, and Chu Zi Xiong Yi was also invited.

But at that time, the state of Chu was too poor!

Even the cattle that were dedicated to the ancestors of the Chu State when he was made a viscount were stolen from neighboring countries, and they only dared to secretly sacrifice at night.

Helplessly, Xiong Yi could only take the peach wood bow to exorcise ghosts and the godly thatch as a gift to the king of Zhou, and went to participate in the Qiyang Alliance.

Maybe it was because the carriage that Chu Zi Xiong Yi was riding was too shabby, or maybe Chu Zi Xiong Yi's language was incompatible with the surrounding princes, and in the end he couldn't enter the palace!

Xiong Yi was appointed as the fire master and worked with the king of Xianbei to do three things outside the hall to make budding grass, set up a watch, and sacrifice to guard the field.

To put it simply, prepare wine for the guests, rank them up, and light a bonfire, like a modern waiter!

But Xiong Yi had no choice, he thought that the state of Chu was far away and weak, so he could only surrender.

But this hurt the hearts of the Chu people, who pursued for hundreds of years, but they still could not be accepted by the princes of the Central Plains, so after Xiong Yi's death, the successor monarch of Chu was no longer keen on paying tribute to the Zhou royal family.

Later, King Zhao of Zhou used this as a reason to personally lead the six divisions to crusade against the Chu State!

Of course, for the Zhou royal family, this is just a reason, their goal is to sweep away the Yangtze River tribes and master the copper mines in the Yangtze River basin.

It's just that what King Zhao of Zhou didn't expect was that the Chu people saw that the Zhou army was powerful and did not come into direct contact with the Zhou army.

Instead, they united with the surrounding tribes and relied on Mizusawa to fight a guerrilla war with the Zhou army!

Although the Zhou royal family was strong and strong, there was no way to take the Chu people for a while.

In the first battle of Hanshui, the Chu people disguised themselves as boatmen and made hands and feet on the pontoon bridge where King Zhao of Zhou's boat crossed the river with the Zhou army, not only the Zhou army was destroyed, but King Zhao of Zhou also lost his life!

Since then, several generations of monarchs of the Chu State no longer demanded that the princes of the Central Plains accept him, but continued to develop and wait for opportunities.

Finally, the dog Rong invaded and killed the king of Zhou You, the king of Zhou Ping moved eastward, and the troubled times of the Spring and Autumn Period began.

The state of Chu took advantage of the fact that the vassal states of the Central Plains attacked each other, and when there was no time for him to take care of it, he conquered the Yongguo in the west and Yangyue in the east, and became a behemoth that was difficult for the vassal states of the Central Plains to ignore!

In the end, King Wu of Chu not only established himself as king, but also named several of his sons as kings, saying the famous sentence "I am a barbarian, and I don't have a relationship with Zhongguo".

Let me ask, if there is no such stinky and shameless spirit, how can the state of Chu be transformed from a small country with a radius of less than 50 miles, into a hegemon with thousands of miles of locality, thousands of military vehicles, hundreds of thousands of armor, and once won the title of the overlord of the Central Plains?

"Your Majesty, it is imperative that you think of a strategy to retreat from the enemy."

Sun Wu said with a stern expression: "This time, the Chu army came to attack in a big way, and Han Jun repeatedly picked quarrels and provoked trouble at the king's crown ceremony before he did it. Chen thought, these two things must not be accidental! ”

Hearing this, Qingji's brows furrowed, and he asked: "Changqing, are you saying that the behavior of the dry debauchery may have been instructed by the Chu people, and when Chu attacked Wu, the Han army was also destined to go south?" ”

"Not impossible."

Sun Wu sighed and said, "King, don't hide it, this may not be the worst result!" ”

"If at this time, there is a change in the Yue Kingdom in the south of our Wu Kingdom, as well as Ji Guang's side, then my Wu Kingdom will be attacked on all sides, what can I do?"

"Then before Dawu is attacked on all sides, defeat the strongest Chu army first!"

Qingji said with a cold face: "However, what the widow is most worried about now is Ji Guang, who is in a corner. This time the Chu army attacked on a large scale, and it is very likely that it was the plot of Ji Guang and the soldiers......"

No wonder the last time Ji Zha made Chu, the Chu people signed a non-aggression pact so easily.

In Qingji's view, according to the bad root of the Chu people's greedy nature, how can it be as good as it should be?

It turns out that the Chu people have premeditated!

The state of Chu is in cahoots with Lu Lu!
