Volume 6 The Battle of Harvey Chapter 2 The Cause of the Defeat of the Chu State

Kong Ming watched as the guards kept directing those who entered and exited the city gates. As the imperial capital of the Harvey Empire, the defense here is very strict, Kong Ming saw that those who entered the city were holding a card in their hands, and the card would pass a magic mirror in front of the gate of the city, and then the mirror would shoot out a ray of light next to the person, and then Kong Ming saw a person next to that person, height, The appearance is almost identical, and in front of the mirror image that appears, there will be some numbers jù, these numbers jù are the origin and some basic characteristics of that person, this is to prevent other people from impersonating, and there are a few empty next to that number jù, so obviously it also shows something, but only the observing guard can see it, and the person next to it can't see it, and then, I saw that the person asked a few questions. Once the answer is given, the man can go into the city, and if he does not answer, someone will come out from the gate and take the man away. Fortunately, there are dozens of such places, and only in this way can there be no obstacles to the most basic entry and exit of the imperial capital.

"Fortunately, I was prepared before I came, otherwise it would have been really difficult. Kong Ming said to himself, before coming to the Harvey Imperial Capital, Kong Ming deliberately did his homework, and heard some of the most basic common sense of the imperial capital from a small city next to him, you must know that if you don't know the basic common sense of some places, it is easy for people to recognize, if this is the case, many ideas will be burned. For this card, Kong Ming deliberately found a very remote place, and then, at the third watch in the middle of the night, he secretly entered the security office of the small city, and did it himself, using three nights to make a fake identity certificate, and the name, Kong Ming did not change, because there are very few people called Kong Ming, and Kong Ming's name was also taken by the old mage on a whim, except for himself, I really don't know if there is anyone with this name. As for those questions and the like, the identity witnesses are also dead people in some small cities who don't know from that corner, in short, the name Kong Ming can be found in the security office of the Harvey Empire, and there are many references, but if you dig deeper, you will find that those witnesses are some people who have long since died, and the signatures on those certificates are a variety of different handwritings. Of course, it is impossible for Kong Ming to write so many different handwritings, but he can't withstand the magic of Kong Ming, and he can perfectly reproduce those words written by others, and they are the same as they are written, not photocopied. It can be said that Kong Ming's identity is completely legitimate, and he is now a complete Harvey.

Light yì through the inspection of the guards, Kong Ming walked into the city gate of the Harvey Imperial Capital, the moment he walked out of the city gate, let Kong Ming's eyes brighten, compared with the narrowness of the city gate, the place behind the city gate is undoubtedly too wide, the road is at least fifty meters wide, and on both sides of the road are two rows of trees that have sprouted, the bottom of the tree is floating and changing the fallen leaves, many people step on the fallen leaves to look very brisk, and behind the tree is the continuous shop, in short, it seems very prosperous, these make Kong Ming suddenly return to the imperial capital of the Huayuan Empire。 After walking for more than an hour, Kong Ming still didn't find a suitable place for himself to inquire about disappearing, not that there was none, but because of Kong Ming's accent, this is a difficult problem to solve, he can also use magic to imitate, but, this is the imperial capital, just find a few people to come out, among them are a magician or a profession related to magicians, if Kong Ming used it for the first time, then the next moment, he may appear in Harvey's cage, it is Kong Ming did not enter these places to inquire, but quietly walked and observed。 At this time, Kong Ming suddenly discovered a problem, that is, there was no beggar here, what was going on? You know, although the Huayuan Empire was richer than here, there were also many beggars on the streets, and even Kong Ming took in a lot of beggars to do some preparatory things. But I haven't seen a single one after walking here for so long? To say, this place is rich and Kong Ming believes, but if there are no beggars here, then Kong Ming will not believe it, even in some very rich small countries, there will be some people who come inexplicably to be beggars, let alone a big country. This in itself already illustrates a problem, not to mention, Kong Ming has been in this country for a few months, and he also has a certain understanding of the situation here, in the north of Harvey, there is a country formed by orcs, behind the forest of elves in the south, there is a country composed of elves, and the east is fighting in the Chu country, and there is also a human country in the west eyeing it, and the northeast of the country is in turmoil, and many people have organized an army to fight Harvey's regular army many times. These are the troubles of the Harvey Empire, but it is precisely in this kind of place that the top level of Harvey has become extraordinarily aggressive, and frequently launches some foreign wars, whether it is against the Chu State or the orc country in the north, or other places, except for the south, there is almost no place they don't want to move, and it is precisely because of this that the Harvey Empire has more generals, and there are more than ten famous generals who can be ranked to let the whole continent know. This is still the present, not the previous one. All in all, Harvey is a belligerent nation and a warlike nation. And it is precisely because of this that Kong Ming will conclude that the absence of a beggar here is a problem in itself, because there will always be a lot of orphans in the war. Wounded and so on, but none of them appear here, if other places do not appear, then it is very normal that there are no appearances here, but Kong Ming knows that in other places, there are almost beggars everywhere, so Kong Ming judged from here that there must be some problems in a certain link of Harvey's high-level, and if this problem can be used, it can cause a devastating blow to the Harvey Empire, because this is a terminal illness.

Walking, walking, Kong Ming saw a bookstore, Kong Ming walked in, there are different kinds of books everywhere, there are new and old, the latest of which belongs to the achievements of the Harvey army on the battlefields and the so-called situation in the country, as well as the big and small things that have appeared in various places. All kinds of anecdotes and so on, Kong Ming bought more than a dozen of these books, in order not to let the shopkeeper suspect, Kong Ming even bought a book of Harvey's land and customs description, and thus Kong Ming obtained Harvey's domestic sketch and situation, although these are well-known to the public, but you know, the deadly information is often hidden in this ordinary introduction, these things are often inadvertently, can change the situation of a battle, this is the power of knowledge. Kong Ming left the bookstore, found a small hotel nearby, asked for a single room, and stayed.

From these books, Kong Ming finally understands Harvey's history and current situation. The Harvey Empire was established by a god-level powerhouse called Harvey, and perhaps because it was a very aggressive powerhouse, after Harvey was formed as a country, he never stopped the conquest, and this conquest lasted for thousands of years, in this thousand-year conquest, the Harvey people developed a good character, and also made the Harvey ruler full of aggressiveness. Of course, that god-level powerhouse only participated in the first ten wars, and the future was carried out by his descendants, and he was just killing the opponent's master or general in a few battles in a hurry, and until now, it has reached its current state, it can be said that the current Harvey Empire is also the strongest time in the history of the Harvey Empire. Because except for the east, the other four sides are guarded by god-level powerhouses. There is an orc empire guarded by the beast god in the north, an elf empire guarded by an elf god in the south, and many small countries such as Yan and Chu in the east are facing off against the Huayuan Empire, and the Han country guarded by the martial god in the west, and its northeast is a chaotic place, it is said that there are many god-level powerhouses hidden there, so the Harvey Empire has never dared to conquer there, which also leads to the northeast of the Harvey Empire has always been a difficult place to govern, because once the people there commit a crime, they will quickly disappear in the chaotic place, so that the Harvey people dare not find it anymore, and now, due to years of war, Harvey's country has set off turmoil everywhereThis is also why when the Harvey people confronted the Huayuan Empire, they did not hesitate to sacrifice some interests to withdraw their troops to the country, because in this kind of turmoil, this army can be used as a reliable reserve for the Harvey, going around to conquer those turbulent areas and stabilize the situation. And because of the intensifying turmoil, the Harveys are now almost losing a fortune from a year's war in negotiations. From these books, Kong Ming also knew the reason for the defeat of the Chu State, it can be said that this is the far-sighted thinking of the Harvey people, and it is also that the Chu people may have enjoyed the blessings for too long, and they have long forgotten the feeling of battle, so that the Harvey people teased them again and again. The defeat of the state of Chu was divided into three steps:

The first step is to lose the heart of defense. After the last time Harvey and Chu and other small countries carried out a war, the victorious coalition of countries looked down on the combat effectiveness of the Harvey people very much, and the Harvey Empire took advantage of this time to compensate the countries with a low profile, and the number was also very large, at this time, they used this relationship to make friends with the countries, and the countries relaxed their vigilance against the Harvey Empire because they saw the "sincerity" of the Harvey Empire.

The second step is to buy people's hearts. The Harvey Empire took advantage of this opportunity to make great friends with the real power figures of various countries, and almost all of the people who could be bought were controlled in various forms to control these people in their hands, and for those who were not convinced, they used the internal struggle between countries to expand the struggle between them to the greatest extent, so that all countries spent their energy in this kind of internal struggle for a considerable period of time, and even Xiang Tiancheng had to take refuge in the Huayuan Empire in the name of studying abroad because of this internal strife, so that all countries destroyed the Great Wall.

The third step is to destroy people's hearts. When the civil strife in various countries reached a certain point, the Harvey Empire began to attack, first of all, it first destroyed the resistance of the Yan State with a lightning speed, and the Yan Kingdom was also busy with the civil war at this time, where there was the energy to take care of this kind of matter of life and death? By the time most of them understood, the Yan Kingdom had already surrendered under the leadership of the traitors, and most of those who were unwilling to surrender were executed by the Harvey. When the Yan State was taken, the Chu State saw that it was not good, and had no choice but to resist desperately, and in this way, the war between Ha and Chu began. The war between the Ha Chu State is not the same as the war against the Yan State, because the Chu State has woken up to the lessons of the Yan State, so the same policy cannot be used in the same way, and the Harvey Empire let those who have been bought stand still, but give the Chu army a fatal blow at the critical time of the war. They achieved their goal, whether it was an inexplicable defeat on the border, or in the process of defeat and defeat, there were those traitors, and at this time, as the head of a country, Xiang Tiancheng was hesitant and indecisive, and he could not deal a severe blow to those who constantly sabotaged the war, but the generals who fought were repeatedly restrained, so that the battle was defeated again and again, and finally there was a phenomenon of taking the lead in fleeing without a fight, and the army of 300,000 became prisoners of the enemy.

This is the "three hearts" of the Harvey. Policy, the introduction of this policy directly made the army of the Harvey people cut the armies of Yan and Chu under the horse, although later, the Chu State because of the intervention of the Huayuan Empire, but this is not the soft-hearted heart of the Harvey people, but this is a tacit understanding between the two empires, the two countries have long secretly reached an agreement, the Harvey people want the Yan State, and the Huayuan Empire wants the Chu State, otherwise, why when the Chu State was defeated again and again, the Huayuan Empire did not send troops, but after the Chu State lost its capital, the Huayuan Empire would send troops? Of course, this last is some speculation by the authors of these books, but Kong Ming believes that the defeat of the Chu State by the Harvey Empire is abnormal if there is no Huayuan Empire behind it. The person who proposed this "three-hearted" policy was a young senator of the Harvey Empire at that time, and now it is a person in charge of foreign affairs in the Harvey Empire, whose name is Zhang Yiming. Decide the fate of the two countries in a plan, this Zhang Yiming really impressed Kong Ming, you must know that this kind of talent is the most terrifying, of course, the terrible is not his force, but his wisdom, and Emperor Harvey put it in a diplomatic position, thinking that he also wanted him to have more strategies in this kind of foreign policy.

In the book, there are not only quite a lot of descriptions of these, but also those people in the Yan and Chu countries who later became the Harvey Empire, and how they became such people, of course, this is a disguised illustration of the strength and power of the Harvey Empire.

As Kong Ming, who has experienced the battle of Chu throughout the whole process, his heart is tumbling, he can't be calm for a long time, he has been fighting to the death on the side, and he has been tortured, but he can only become this Zhang Yiming's sparring partner, which is indeed a very sad thing. Shaking his head, Kong Ming walked to the window, now that he thinks about it, the war is like a nightmare, the people in the dream are brilliant, but there is more helplessness, looking at the people coming and going on the street, Kong Ming is really speechless. What makes Kong Ming even more unimaginable is that those who have already surrendered to the Harvey people in the Chu State account for more than half of the high-ranking officials of the Chu State, including local officials and many officers, so how can the Chu army fight? Knowing this, Kong Ming would not have participated in the battle with the Chu State, a person in the Huayuan Imperial Capital is more comfortable drinking than this, go to his brother's, do you want to do so much, how to deal with this kind of thing in the future is true, don't be like this time, being sold by others, and still counting money for others, and counting it with relish. Thinking of this, Kong Ming finally let go of the years of fighting in the Chu State, you must know that although the upper echelons are dirty, the people who get along with Kong Ming are quite good. When he thought of this, Kong Ming suddenly saw a figure that made his heart rush by.

The self-pity in Kong Ming's heart was still 108,000 miles. As soon as Kong Ming's hand flipped over, a magician's magic robe directly covered him, and the whole person was covered in the robe, and a teleportation appeared directly in a corner of the street that no one noticed, and then followed by that person, at this time, Kong Ming looked like he was taking a slow walk, but if someone paid attention, he found that Kong Ming walked very regularly, Kong Ming was always in a place where the eyesight of the person he was tracking, and it always appeared in a place that people didn't notice, in the eyes of outsiders, Kong Ming was nothing special. The back in front obviously didn't expect that someone would follow him in this place, he walked directly into a hotel, and then never came out, Kong Ming was in a shop diagonally opposite the hotel, pretending to look at the dazzling array of goods, but his eyes paid attention to the door of the hotel from time to time, so after nearly ten minutes, Kong Ming walked out of the store and walked in from an alley next to the hotel. Seeing that there was no one on the left and right, Kong Ming used his mental power to probe the other side of the wall, and found that there was no one inside, so he used a teleportation to directly enter a remote and unnoticed corner of the hotel, and then directly entered the sneak. Kong Ming used his mental power to feel it again, confirmed the room where the person was, and sneaked over.
