Chapter 288: Wu Can Be Enemy

It is indeed impossible for Fan Li to betray Qingji.

As soon as he entered Wu, he was reused by Qingji, and was named the internal history of Zhisu, one of the nine kings, and a high and powerful position.

As the saying goes, the soldier dies for the confidant, and the woman is the one who pleases herself!

How could Fan Li, who was so appreciated by Qingji, betray Qingji and switch to the arms of the Chu State?

Moreover, the state of Chu has been declining, and the rise of the state of Wu has become unstoppable.

Fan Li, who has served in Wu for so many years and has made a lot of achievements, has long regarded Wu as his homeland, how could he let himself become a "second minister and thief"?

"Alas! The widow hates the heavens and does not roll, so that the widow and Fan Zi are so talented, they miss out! ”

After being rejected by Fan Li, Xiong Zhen said bitterly.

In the former Chu State, Chu Cai was promoted, and now Chu State, Chu Cai Wu Yong, from beginning to end, Chu State's brain drain is very serious!

Just like Wu Ju back then.

Wu Ju is the son of Wu Shen, the doctor of Chu State, the father of Wu Lu, and the grandfather of Wu Yuan (Wu Zixu).

In 547 BC, Wu Ju went to Zheng to avoid trouble, and prepared to defect to the Jin Kingdom in the next step.

He met his friend Cai Shengzi in Zheng State and expressed his desire to return to Chu State, so Shengzi went to Chu State and told Ling Yin Zimu: The talents who fled from Chu State to Jin State in the past were all reused by Jin State, which caused great harm to Chu State, and now Jiaoju has fled to Jin State again, if it is reused by Jin State, it may add a lot of trouble to Chu State!

Ling Yin Zimu hurriedly sent his son Jiao Ming to pick him up from the Jin Kingdom.

This is the allusion of "Chu Cai Jin Yong".

After that, Wu Ju persuaded the king of Chuzhuang to make great efforts, and the allusion of "a blockbuster" also originated from this.

No wonder Xiong Zhen made such a feeling.

Fan Li, Bo Kuo, Wu Zixu, all three of them have the talent of the world, and if a country gets one of them, it can prosper and prosper for a long time.

But for various reasons, he is not allowed to be in the Chu State!

Bo Biao and Wu Zixu have a deep blood feud with the Chu State, and they hate to destroy the Chu State immediately.

Although this has little to do with Xiong Zhen, this is a mess left by his father, King Chuping, and Xiong Zhen has to pay off his father's debts and clean up by himself.

"Fan Zi is here, it must be for Chu and Wu?"

"Exactly."

Fan Li said straight to the point: "Now, the two armies of Wu and Chu are holding each other in the area of Jifu. Headed by the Jin people, the princes of the eighteen countries of the Central Plains will ally in Zhaoling to discuss the matter of attacking Chu, the state of Chu is in danger, my king can't bear to see your country destroyed, so he sent foreign ministers to Chu, please Chu State soldiers! ”

It's better to say than to sing!

For Fan Li's words, the monarchs and ministers of Chu were resentful.

The matter of the princes' alliance to attack Chu was not promoted by Wu State?

Now, Fan Li still dares to say such unashamed words.

Qingji can't bear to see the State of Chu destroyed?

Joke!

It's so deceitful!

Xiong Zhen had a cold face and did not speak.

Under His Majesty's platform, Zi Qi pointed at Fan Li angrily and said: "Fan Zi, the alliance of princes, why should my Chu State be afraid?" ”

"On the contrary, it is you, the State of Wu, who has been fighting in Chu for more than half a year, and has successively marched seventy or eighty thousand people, I am afraid that it will go deep into the hinterland of our Chu State, and the logistics and supply will be difficult, and it will be beyond my strength!"

"Otherwise, with the temperament of King Wu Qingji, how could you let Chu make Chu and promote the two countries to fight each other?"

Hearing this, Fan Li laughed at it.

Truly!

The Wu army of 70,000 or 80,000 people went on an expedition and went deep into the hinterland of the Chu State, and the logistics supply line was more than 1,000 miles long, and it was difficult to transport, and it was often harassed by the Chu army on the way, and some of its strength was not enough.

However, the situation is not critical to that extent!

"Don't know what to do?"

"Knot!"

Ziqi said with his head held high.

"It turned out to be a married son, polite."

Fan Li made a gesture towards the sub-period, and then smiled and said, "What the prince said is suitable for the right person, Da Miao also!" ”

"After several years of new law, the results of our Wu State have been remarkable, the treasury is full, and the soldiers are full of food. Even if it is difficult to transfer grain and heavy loads now, it is not a bad thing! ”

"With the food hoarded by my Wu country, I can consume it with the Chu army for three years on the front line of the chicken father! Is it possible in your country? ”

"The alliance of the princes of the eighteen countries is mighty, and I am afraid it will not be good! At that time, it will be nothing more than a lose-lose situation, but the Chu State will suffer even more, and I am afraid that there will be a danger of losing the country! ”

Hearing this, the worry on Xiong Zhen's face became even stronger.

He knew that Fan Li was talking big.

After several years of new laws, Wu did have enough soldiers and enough food to support the consumption of a major war.

However, it was transported from the Wu country to the front line of Jifu, and it was thousands of miles, and I don't know how much food would be consumed.

Tens of thousands of Wu troops, people eat horses and chew, and the daily consumption is an astronomical amount, how can the Wu State support it for three years?

It's a blessing to be able to hold on for a year.

However, this year's time is also enough for the princes' coalition army to break through Chu Fang City, and take the opportunity to enter the hinterland of Chu State and beat the Chu people back to their original form!

Qingji, is it really so kind?

Xiong Zhen was a little skeptical.

"If you want to kill soldiers, you must have conditions! I don't know what the sincerity of King Wu is? ”

Xiong Zhen asked aloud.

Finally getting to the point!

Fan Li thought about it secretly, and said: "My king is willing to return the three cities of the city father, the poor, and the Ying clan to the Chu State!" ”

"What?"

Ziqi suddenly became anxious, and said angrily: "Fanzi, does King Wu really have the sincerity to kill the soldiers?" The three cities are still the cities of our Chu State, how can they be used as all the conditions for the defeat of the army? ”

Three cities?

Send it to Hanako!

The monarchs and ministers of the state of Chu were very dissatisfied.

"I don't know what advice I have?"

Fan Li smiled slightly and asked.

In terms of temperament, Fan Li grasped it steadily, and at the same time held the initiative in his own hands.

Ziqi glared and said: "In addition to the three cities of the City Father, the Poor, and the Ying Clan, the Yangcheng, Liu, and Qian, as well as the places of Chao and Zhongli, will all be returned to my Chu State!" ”

"Considering the expedition of the Wu army, it is impossible to gain without gains, and the land of Tong and Qunshu will be assigned to the Wu country!"

“……”

Fan Li was speechless.

Even Xiong Zhen, who was sitting on the platform, felt a little hot on his face.

How could Fan Li agree to such a lion's big mouth in the sub-period?

How could Wu Guo agree?

The Wu army invaded Chu, and at such a big price, how could it be reasonable to give up more than a dozen cities at once?

What's more, now that the Wu State has the upper hand, how can the Chu people be allowed to dominate?

Of course, the sky-high asking price, the landing costs money.

The condition is to talk about it!

So, Fan Li said again: "At most, there will be one more city!" Gongzi, in order to seize the land of these cities, my Wu State lost more than 10,000 teachers, and the weight of grain and straw consumed is even more incalculable. ”

"How to explain to King Wu, that's Fan Zi's own business!"

Ziqi squinted his eyes and said, "Fanzi, don't hide it." My Chu State has recruited 50,000 soldiers and horses again, and I am about to go to the front line of Jifu. At that time, 100,000 Chu troops will face 50,000 Wu divisions, can Wu be the enemy? ”
