Chapter 371: Changes in Jiangdong
The land of Jiangdong, the homeland of Wu Yue.
"What does the destruction of his Chu State have to do with my Jiangdong?"
In a secluded mansion, several men dressed as nobles gather together to drink and discuss a very serious topic.
"However, this place is the land of Wu, and our ancestors are the people of Wu. At that time, my ancestor Lu took Sun Wu and Wu Zixu as generals, led the army to the west to conquer the Chu State, broke its capital, and whipped the king of Chu, how happy. If it weren't for the Chu minister Shen Baoxu crying and asking Qin Shidong to come to help, I'm afraid that my Wu State would have been able to destroy the Chu State in one battle back then. ”
"Wu Chu feud, now that his Chu country is about to die, he was still beaten by the Qin people who helped them in the past, I heard the news, and I can't wait to drink two more wines and have fun."
A Jiangdong nobleman said as he picked up the wine from the desk and drank it all.
"That's right, his Chu country is now completely lost, I heard that even Xiang Yan was killed by the Qin people by the Huaishui, and the main force of the Chu army was all destroyed. To the north of the river, there is not an inch of Chu people's land. In this case, he Xiong Qi, a fake king supported by Xiang Yan, actually came to my Jiangdong and asked us Wu people to restore the land and resist Qin for him, hehe, is it really my Wu people's life is not life? ”
"Tens of thousands of Jiangdong disciples, how many people followed him Xiong Qi to the north, and finally came back?"
"The Qin army is invincible in the world, and now it has destroyed the Three Jin and Yan Kingdoms, and even the king of Chu has surrendered to Qin. This Xiong Qi doesn't know the destiny of heaven, and he is not the prime minister of the Qin State, so he came to do what he was a fake king of the Chu State, purely looking for death. ”
"I heard that the King of Qin hated Xiong Qi to the core, and once said that he would kill him in public. Now that he Xiong Qi has come to Jiangdong, the Qin army will also arrive sooner or later. In my opinion, sooner or later, his head will be cut off and hung on Xianyang City, and we can't follow Xiong Qi to die. ”
"Xiong Qi wants our family to be buried with him, so let's cut off his head first and give it to the Qin people. In this way, if you make a contribution in front of the Qin army, you can't say that you will be able to continue to keep our wealth and power. ”
"Okay, let's do it!"
After discussion, everyone reached an agreement.
The next moment, many eyes fell on the main seat, the aristocratic man who had been drinking wine and not speaking.
"Nan Wujun, we are willing to kill Xiong Qi to welcome Qin Shi. Please also ask Nan Wujun to lead us to do it, and we are willing to raise troops together to attack and kill this traitor of the Qin State! Revenge for the children of Jiangdong who were killed by his Xiong Qi! ”
Nanwu Jun Wu Yong put down the wine.
Looking at the Wu nobles in the room with resolute expressions, he smiled and said: "There are three thousand Chu troops left behind in Jiangdong, most of them are descendants of the original people of Jing Chu, and now they are controlled by Xiong Qi and cannot be ignored. If we were to attack them with our private soldiers, we might be able to win, but our sons would also suffer heavy casualties. Therefore, if you want to capture Xiong Qi, you should outwit it, not attack. ”
"Dare to ask Nan Wujun, how to outwit?"
Someone asked curiously.
The smile on Wu Yong's face was even worse.
"I should discuss the matter of resisting Qin, and invite this king to come and sit in the palace. At that time, we will be in ambush in the house, and we will be able to capture them on the spot with a single word. With Xiong Qi in hand, the three thousand Chu soldiers are not worried. ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but praise again and again: "Nanwu Jun is high! ”
……
"King, those nobles of Wu really got together in private, and I don't know what to discuss in the mansion."
The pi walked in and reported in a deep voice.
"Hmm."
Chu Wangqi sat on the couch, playing with a polished rhino horn cup in his hand, and his eyes flashed with a cold light.
He was a newcomer on the battlefield and didn't have much military experience, and when he was faced with Zhao Tuo's embattled moves, which caused the whole army to collapse, he couldn't come up with an effective way except for fear.
But after leaving the battlefield and returning to the officialdom and politics that Chu Wangqi was familiar with, he was a real master after being the prime minister of Qin for ten years.
After leading the remnants to cross the river, Chu Wangqi was keenly aware of the attitude of these Wu nobles in Jiangdong who had changed towards him.
In particular, when he asked Wu Yong, the Southern Wujun, to recruit soldiers again and prepare to defend the river to resist the southward movement of the Qin army, he received an answer that the Wu people refused.
After a short period of confusion, the alarm bell sounded in Chu Wangqi's heart.
He buried tens of thousands of Jiangdong children, which has made Jiangdong people lose confidence in him, the king of Chu, and even many people hate him.
In addition, the king of Chu surrendered, the homeland of Chu fell to the ground, Xiang Yan died in Huaishui, and the Qin army was in the north of the river, collecting and building ships to cross the river.
The situation in the world has become clear, and the destruction of Chu by the Qin State has become an inevitable trend.
Wu Yue people are not fools, and those Jiangdong nobles who are in high positions and have a lot of wealth and power are not fools.
Unless they have a problem with their brains, they will help Chu Wang Qi against the Qin army when the general trend is gone.
Chu Wang Qi understood these people, relative to continuing to support him, the king of Chu, in his confrontation with the powerful Qin state.
The more likely choice these Jiangdong nobles made was to cut off his Xiong Qi's head and sacrifice it to the Qin army in order to preserve their wealth and power.
"Privately conspired...... This is the first step. ”
Chu Wangqi tapped his fingers on the wooden table, and he looked at the tall man in the room.
Donkey.
In the past, the king of Chuwei raised troops to break through the Yue, and after killing the king of Yue, the Yue royal family fled in all directions.
One of them surrendered to the state of Chu and stayed in Jiangdong, which was the ancestor of this donkey.
In order to deal with the Yue people, he promoted this donkey to general, and then used a series of means to smooth out the Yue people's affairs.
Because of his outstanding ability, he became a close confidant of his Chu Wangqi.
Later, the king of Chu led his troops north to support Xiang Yan, and in order to prevent Jiangdong from being completely controlled by the Wu nobles such as Nanwujun, he promoted this Su Pi to the general of the Chu army who stayed in Jiangdong to resist Wu Yong, so that a new balance was formed between the local Wu and Yue people.
Looking at it now, he Chu Wangqi really made the right move.
Cai Yuan and Jing Ju were both separated from him in the Jiangbei War, and they don't know if they were captured by the Qin people. More than 10,000 Chu pawns under his command were also beaten and collapsed on the spot, and only more than ten horsemen could cross the river with him King Chu.
Under such circumstances, Qi Pi is the only person available to him Chu Wang Qi today, and the three thousand Chu troops under his command are also his Chu Wang Qi's life-saving soldiers.
"King, Nanwu Jun asks to see you."
Outside the door, a cronie came to report.
Chu Wang Qi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said, "Hurry up and invite Nan Wujun in." ”
Soon, Wu Yong, the king of Nanwu, walked in from outside the house.
When he entered the room, he glanced imperceptibly at the donkey who was standing in the room. But he smiled and said, "King, it's a good thing! In the past two days, the minister has persuaded several feudal nobles in Jiangdong that they are afraid that the Qin people will cross the river, so they are willing to sacrifice their private soldiers, and at the same time recruit their people as soldiers to assist the king to resist the Qin State and stop those Qin people north of the river! ”
"Oh?"
Chu Wangqi's face was full of joyful smiles.
"So good, so good! Nan Wu Jun is really a loyal and good minister of Bugu! Bugu is very relieved in his heart, and he is willing to use Nan Wujun as my Chu State Lingyin, and entrust all national affairs to Nan Wujun! ”
"The king has an overreputation, and it is his duty to be loyal to the country. This made Yin's position unacceptable. ”
Wu Yong sneered in his heart while refusing.
Ling Yin of the State of Chu?
Waiting to be remembered by the Qin people and cut off their heads?
He hurriedly bypassed this topic and said with a smile: "Tomorrow, the minister will hold a banquet in the mansion, and invite the king to come, and then he should discuss the matter of resisting Qin with everyone." ”
A cold glint flashed in Chu Wangqi's eyes, but a smile appeared on his face: "It's better to let Bugu set up a banquet in this palace and invite all the gentlemen to come." ”
Wu Yong's face remained unchanged, and he said with a smile: "The people in Jiangdong are more familiar with the ministers, and they should be more comfortable in the ministers' mansions." ”
Wu Yong looked at Chu Wangqi, now this king has a request for him, he speaks naturally and hardly, and he is not afraid that Chu Wangqi will not agree.
Sure enough, Chu Wangqi immediately softened, and said in his mouth: "That is the case, that Bugu will come tomorrow, and everything will be arranged according to Ling Yin." ”
Wu Yong smiled.
Come on, I'll give you a big surprise tomorrow.
Chu Wang Qi also smiled.
His heart was cold.
……
On the second day.
On the Nambu Monarch's house.
"Wait a minute, listen to me drop the wine. You will rush out and take down Xiong Qi, so it is a great achievement, and I deserve a heavy reward. ”
Wu Yong instructed more than a dozen cronies in front of him to lie down behind the axe wall and in the inner room.
"Yui."
All the armorers bowed their hands in unison.
Several Jiangdong nobles around laughed and said to Wu Yong: "Nanwu Jun is really extremely resourceful. This strategy is high, very high! ”
was touted, Wu Yong couldn't help but say complacently: "That Xiong Qi now only has 3,000 soldiers, and his strength is weak, if he wants to fight the Qin army, he must rely on our strength, so I invited him to come here, he had to come, hehe, this is a momentum!" ”
"What a momentum! Wait a minute, and we'll see the heads rolling to the ground, hahaha. ”
The crowd burst into laughter.
After a while, someone came to report that the king of Chu was about to set off.
"Let's go, let's go meet the king and send him to see the great secretary."
Wu Yong walked towards the door.
The nobles laughed together and followed with a grin.
Soon, at the gate of the Nanwu Monarch's Mansion, the car of Chu Wang Qi came here under the escort of three hundred warriors.
Wu Yong nodded slightly, these three hundred guards are not many, and after capturing Xiong Qi later, he can trap these people to death.
"Hehe, Nanwu-kun's mansion is really magnificent."
Chu Wang Qi stepped down from the carriage, and the donkey on his side immediately followed the guards up.
"Greetings to the king."
Wu Yong immediately bowed with the nobles.
However, before they finished saluting, Chu Wangqi said a word.
"I heard that there are dead soldiers in the king's mansion, intending to assassinate Bugu."
In an instant, all the Jiangdong nobles present changed their expressions, and some of them had poor psychological quality, and even knelt down on the spot.
At this point, anyone can see that there is a problem.
"This is a slander, my lord. The minister is loyal to the king and the state of Chu, and there is no such thing! ”
Wu Yong screamed, and immediately after, he was kicked over by the donkey.
The rest of the Jiangdong nobles were also captured on the spot by the guards of Chu Wangqi unsuspectingly.
"King, you have been wronged!"
In the shouts of the multitude.
The guards of the king of Chu entered the palace and quickly searched for the armor soldiers who were hiding in the house.
When the king of Chu Qi asked people to escort Nanwu Jun and all the Jiangdong nobles into the mansion, and when he saw those armor soldiers who were subdued and slashed, he could no longer deny it.
Faced with this situation, Nanwujun Wu Yong no longer complained about grievances, but became hardened.
"Xiong Qi, this Jiangdong is our Jiangdong, what can you do if you take us today? If you kill us, the whole Jiangdong will definitely turn against you, and then you won't have to go south with the Qin people, and your life will be lost. It's better for you to let us go, we can have a good discussion, after this matter, we also know your ability, and we will really help you resist Qin. ”
"Against me? Anti-Qin? ”
Chu Wang Qi smiled at the corner of his mouth, but the light in his eyes was very cold.
"No need."
"This Jiangdong, don't want it."
As he spoke, Chu Wangqi picked up a wine jar from the case and slammed it on the ground.
"Kill!"
In an instant, in the Nanwu Monarch's mansion, people's heads rolled down.
"Don't take someone to raid these people's homes. Give a portion of his belongings to his men. Then, take all the treasures and belongings, and we will go south. ”
King Qi of Chu was expressionless, he first looked at the north, and then turned his head to look at the south.
"Jiangdong can't hold it. So I went to Yue Di and took refuge in those barbaric Yue people. ”
"Lure them with wealth and goods, scare them with alarmist words, and don't want to let those Yue people become the enemies of Qin."
"Bugu wants to let the southern border of the Qin State never have a peaceful day."
……
Jiangbei, Guangling.
The long black dragon came from the north, with flags in the sky and spears and halberds like a forest.
When the nearby Chu people saw this scene, they were all trembling with fright and fled in all directions, for fear that tens of thousands of Qin troops would be beheaded as a military merit.
"General."
Zhongli was in the dust and came to greet him with his soldiers.
Zhao Tuo got out of the car, helped him up, and said gently: "Zhongli, I haven't seen you for half a month, you have lost some weight, it's really hard for you." ”
Zhong Liyi shook his head and said: "The last general is incompetent, and he was ordered by the general to hunt down and kill the pseudo-king Xiong Qi, but let him cross the river and escape, and ask the general to punish him." ”
Zhao Tuo comforted: "When you encounter an attack led by Cai Yuan, you can defeat more than 10,000 Chu people with thousands of people, and finally break the Chu army with General Yang and behead the enemy general Cai Yuan." What a sin for such a great achievement. ”
"Xiong Qi will run away, he can escape for a while, and he can escape for a lifetime."
As he spoke, Zhao Tuo turned his head and looked at the river in the distance.
On the other side of the vast river is the land of Jiangdong.
"When my army crosses the river, I will let that Xiong Qi have no way to escape."
"Jiangdong is his place of death!"
