Chapter 161: The Enemy of the Enemy
"Good!"
Regarding Qingji's request to dismantle the border armies of Wu and Vietnam, Yun Chang was forced to have no choice but to agree.
With the Yu'er River as the boundary, the garrison of the two countries within a radius of 100 miles must not exceed 1,000 people?
Putting officials on each other to supervise?
In the final analysis, it is Yue Guo who suffers in this matter!
The territory of the Guy Wu State is larger than that of the Yue Kingdom, and the strategic depth is quite long, not to mention, the Yu'er River is no more than a hundred miles away from the capital of the Yue Kingdom.
If one day, the Wu army attacks the Yue country on a large scale, the defense of the northern part of the Yue region will also be useless, and there will be a great threat.
"King Yue, come, drink with the widow!"
"Please!"
Qingji raised the wine jue in his hand and toasted with Yunchang, who did not dare to slack off, and then covered his face with his sleeves and drank a bottle of wine.
After Yue Wang Yunchang and his entourage left, Qingji retreated left and right, leaving the imperial historian Sun Wu, the historian Fan Li and Wu Zixu, the commander of Wudu County, to discuss major matters.
Qingji, who was sitting at the top, smiled indifferently and said: "Zhuqing, if you look at it as a widow, you can always be a person, a forbearant generation, and a generation of kings who defend the land and open up the territory." ”
"There is Yun always here, my Wu country wants to destroy Yue, it is not easy!"
Hearing this, Sun Wu and the other three couldn't help but bow their heads slightly and agreed.
Yun Chang can indeed be called a successful monarch, and he can be called the master of Zhongxing in the Yue country, a generation of heroes!
The founding of the country began with more than a thousand years. It was not until the time of King Yunchang of Yue that it began to gradually become stronger.
Yue Guo, also known as "Yu Yue", is the same as the alias of Wu "Gou Wu", Yu Yue is the self-name of the Yue people, and Yue Guo is the name of the Central Plains countries.
The ruling area of the Yue Kingdom has been centered on Huiji since Wuyu.
By the time of Yunchang's generation, the territory of the Yue Kingdom had reached Juwu in the south, Yu'er in the north, Yin in the east, and Gu in the west.
Among them, there is no lack of unremitting efforts.
Since he succeeded to the throne, he has been expanding externally, increasing the national strength of the Yue Kingdom, and has made a lot of achievements.
According to historical records, Yun Chang "expanded the land and became the king", and he was the first king of the Yue Kingdom.
Therefore, Qingji has never underestimated Yunchang.
Yun Chang is quite similar to his son, that is, the famous Yue King Gou Jian in history, both in terms of his personality and his style.
"Your Majesty, Yun Chang is indeed a little capable. However, Yunchang's ability is far from that of the king, and the national strength of the Yue country is even more far from my great Wu Furu! ”
Fan Li made a flattering but pertinent remark, and said to Qingji: "The current Yue country is no longer a climate. It's good if Yun Chang can settle down, but if he acts rashly, Wu Guo should be destroyed in a battle! ”
"What the history of Zhisu said is extremely true."
Wu Zixu followed: "With the current national situation of Wu and Yue, Wu is thriving, and Yue is stagnant, and the gap will only get bigger and bigger!" ”
"One day, the king will be able to break through the Huiji, go straight to the Yue Kingdom, and become the foundation of the king's hegemony."
Hearing this, Qingji waved his hand and said, "Yue Guo is still not to be underestimated. Wu and Yue are two states, and they are the same as the common people, and the non-Wu is the more. ”
"The customs and customs of the two countries are the same, and the geographical location is closely linked, and if they want to expand outward, they must be incompatible."
"The king is wise!"
Imperial Historian Sun Wu Zhengse said: "The minister thinks that Fu Wu Zhi and Yue Ye are also enemies of the country where the enemy fights." ”
"Surrounded by three rivers, the people have nothing to move. If there is Wu, there is no Yue, and if there is Yue, there is no Wu, and it will not be changed! ”
"When the minister hears it, the land people live on the land, and the water people live on the water. If I attack and win the country of the party, I can't live in it, and I can't ride in its car. Fu Yue country, I attack and win, I can live in its place, I can take its car! ”
"Therefore, the Yue country is the first place to take for my Great Wu, and after the new law is completed, the king can wave his army to the south and annex the Yue Man."
"Good!"
Qingji nodded in approval.
Wu and Yue have been grudges for a long time!
The reason for this is not only the influence of the war between Jin and Chu for hegemony, but also the conflict of fundamental interests between the two countries.
The struggle between the Jin and Chu dynasties lasted for more than 80 years, and it was a struggle between the two major groups of the north and the south to expand their ruling areas and seize land and population.
In a tug-of-war between Jin and Chu, both sides wanted to contact a third country to attack each other.
As a result, the intensification of the contradiction between Wu and Yue in the struggle for hegemony between Jin and Chu played a role in fueling the flames.
Wu Zhi's attack on Yue has been going on for a long time!
As early as the period of King Wu's Yu sacrifice, Wu often sent troops to attack Yue.
The Wu army inflicted cruel punishment on the captured Yue people, such as cutting off their hands and feet, and using them to take care of the ships, which was worse than that of slaves, so the captured Yue people "resented the situation" and wanted to find an opportunity to retaliate.
History: In 544 B.C., the Wu people attacked Chu, captured Yan, thought that they were pavilions, and made the boat. Wu Ziyu sacrificed to watch the boat, and the pavilion wiped it with a knife.
This so-called "reading", that is, guarding the door slave, refers to the captured Yue people, because the Yue State is a vassal of the Chu State, and the matter of conquering Wu with Chu occurs from time to time.
At that time, King Wu Yu was assassinated and killed by the captives of the Yue Kingdom, so this greatly deepened the hatred between Wu and Yue.
Of course, the most fundamental reason why Wu and Yue became "a country of hatred and enemy warfare" was the conflict of interests between the two sides!
"Zhuqing, Yi'er and the others, is it credible to allow their people? In other words, will the Yue State still go back on its word and send troops to invade the borders of our Wu State while our Wu State is implementing the new law? ”
Qingji's heart obviously has certain concerns.
Wu Zixu pondered for a moment and said, "King, it is not surprising that the Yue people are treacherous. The king should not place his expectations on others! ”
"Good."
Qingji bowed slightly: "What Wu Qing said is extremely true. It is not enough to believe in the permissible, so what should the widow do? ”
"My lord, the enemy of my enemy is my friend!"
Wu Zixu said slowly: "In the south of the Yue country, there are still stubborn enemies. ”
"Wu Qing is talking about contempt and Sanyi?"
"Exactly!"
After Wu Zixu's reminder, Qingji remembered that this was indeed the case!
The enemy of my enemy is my friend!
The country of contempt is a small country with a very low sense of existence.
Gumi was originally an ancient nation in the Yellow River Valley, which experienced the tortuous process of originating from China, spreading from the Central Plains to the East, from Xia to Yi, from Yi to Xia, and finally integrating into the trend of great unification.
Gu Guo played an important role in the interaction of pre-Qin Yixia!
At the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, as a conquered nation, some of them stayed in Ludi and gradually integrated into China, while the main part of it crossed the border with Xu Xian and other Yi ethnic groups, and established the country of Gumi.
The Sanyi people, that is, the Dongyi, are the three tribes of the southeast coast and a branch of the Baiyue.
Qingji doesn't know much about the Gu Guo and the Sanyi people, but he also knows that these two forces are also a big threat to the Yue country!
