Chapter 152: Attacking Chu

The palace of the king of Chu.

Xiong Que, who had just ascended the throne, witnessed the noble feudal lords killing Jing Mu. The king of Chu, who supported the reform, died, Jing Mu, who presided over the reform, was killed, and only Qu Qing was left, and he could no longer suppress the opposition in the Chu state.

Xiong Que, the king of Chu, was also very shocked by the power of the nobles and feudal monarchs, and these people dared to besiege Jing Mu at the funeral of the ancestors.

After the shock, the next thing was full of anger, wanting to kill all these noble lords.

The existence of these feudal lords has seriously threatened the royal power, but he has just seen the power of these feudal lords and nobles, so he does not dare to act rashly.

In the main hall, it was not that there was no chance to save Jing Mu just now, but some other nobles and ministers did not make a move at all, watching Jing Mu being killed.

Qu Qing pointed at the nobles and feudal monarchs in front of him, and his lips trembled angrily: "Jing Mu is dead, and you are the sinners of the Chu State."

Such a major event happened at the funeral of the king of Chu, and the funeral naturally ended hastily, and many ministers had different thoughts about the king of Chu and then sent him to the royal tomb.

The whole Yingdu is in a state of mountain rain about to come.

"Qu Qing, the widow wants to kill those people!" Xiong Que, the king of Chu, said angrily. "Qu Qing, you are an old minister of the Three Dynasties, please help me!"

As if he hadn't heard it, Qu Qing was still a little stunned, and said after a while: "Your Majesty, the law change has failed." ”

"This time, those nobles and nobles beheaded Jing Mu at the funeral of the former king, this is not only to kill Jing Mu, but also a warning to us."

"What warning?" Xiong Que asked.

Qu Qing said: "The law changer is dead!" ”

"They are demonstrating to us, if we change the law again, I am afraid that before the Huai State attacks, we will be in chaos."

"What then?" Xiong Que was shocked and hurriedly asked.

"You don't have to worry about your own safety, there are 200,000 troops in hand, and those people don't dare to cross the line."

The King of Chu breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "Is there a way to kill those feudal monarchs and nobles?" ”

"Yes, the left and right are just an exchange of interests, and it is not possible to change the law, then appease the vast majority of nobles and feudal monarchs, and the remaining part of the nobles and feudal monarchs are outcasts."

Things have come to this point, and the change has failed. Qu Qing quickly made a decision, and took advantage of the situation to kill the nobles and feudal monarchs who participated in the killing of Jing Mu.

Qu Qing saw that nothing could be done, and the change failed. Unable to suppress the opposition in the country, he immediately made a compromise with these people. The change stopped, but those nobles and feudal monarchs who killed Jing Mu and damaged the body of the first king all had to be punished by the three clans.

Through the exchange of interests, the king of Chu killed all the nobles and feudal lords who dared to kill Jing Mu, and recovered a large amount of land, but the change completely failed.

When the news reached Huaiguo, Wu Qi immediately went to Huai Palace.

"Your Majesty, the time has come to attack Chu!" As soon as Wu Qi came in, he couldn't wait to say to Wang Pu.

"There is turmoil in Chu?" Wang Pu reacted instantly.

Wu Qiqi nodded and said: "There is turmoil in Chu, those nobles and scholars who are dissatisfied with the change of law, as well as the feudal monarchs, took advantage of Jing Mu's return to China for funeral, and there was no brigade of armor soldiers around them to protect him, and on the top of the main hall, he shot him to death next to the body of Chu Hou with a bow and arrow!" ”

"Shoot Jing Mu to death in the main hall?" Wang Pu was slightly stunned, he knew that those nobles and nobles of the Chu State were ready to make a move, but he never expected that these people would dare to shoot Jing Mu to death on top of the main hall.

This practice is seriously provoking the majesty of the Marquis of Chu, even if Jing Mu is killed, the new Marquis of Chu will punish them severely.

"Now is the Marquis of Chu going to kill those feudal lords and nobles?" Wang Pu said.

"Yes." As he spoke, he handed the bamboo slip to Wang Pu. In fact, the secret guard also sent a piece of information to Wang Pu, but he handed over the affairs of Chu to Wu Qi to be in charge, so he didn't go to see it.

Wang Pu took a quick look and then sighed: "It's a pity for Qu Qing. ”

"The turmoil in the state of Chu, the failure of the law change, a large number of nobles and nobles, and feudal monarchs were killed, these people must resist, and it is a godsend to take this opportunity to attack Chu."

"The feudal monarch of the state of Chu will take advantage of the end of the reform to retake his land and property, so that the morale of the army of the state of Chu plummets. It's impossible to compete with my Huaiguo armor again. ”

"What Xiang Guo said is extremely true, the battle of attacking Chu will be commanded by Xiang Guo!" Wang Pu said with a smile.

"Yes!" Wu Qi immediately saluted, then received the edict from Wang Pu's hand, and then made preparations.

The original number of standing troops in Huai was 100,000, and later 50,000 troops were stationed in the Song State, and then the number of troops in Huai increased rapidly.

Because Huai Guo had already prepared, it only took half a month for the army to set out to prepare. Then he declared that this battle was revenge for the attack on Huai by the state of Chu a few years ago.

Since the last time Sun Wuzi of Huai State broke through from Xinyang, fought thousands of miles, and broke through the Chu capital, the Chu State has further strengthened the cities everywhere.

In order to prevent the recurrence of long-distance raids and the destruction of the first battle.

The Huai State army was divided into two routes, and at the same time, Zhong, Cai, Huang, and Jiang were recruited to send troops together, and the three routes were used to attack Chu.

The state of Chu was in the midst of civil strife at this time, and in addition to the army in the country, there were also large armies stationed on the lost land that had just been recaptured from the Wei state. After learning that the Huai State had attacked Chu, the king of Chu immediately withdrew the troops from the Central Plains.

And the land occupied by the Chu State after the defeat of the Wei State was easily taken back by the Wei State.

Wu Qi led the Huai army to attack Chu, one way up the river and the other way out of the Dabie Mountains in the west to attack the Hanjiang Plain.

The state of Chu built a large number of cities and fortresses in the area of Dabie Mountain, and it was difficult to attack hard. For other countries, these fortresses were extremely difficult to overcome, but the state of Chu encountered the state of Huai.

The addition of a large number of Mojia masters in Huai has made rapid progress in Huai's siege equipment, and all kinds of siege equipment are ready.

Wang Pu since the last time he fooled the scholars of the Mo family, he slipped away and later discussed with Wang Pu several times, and finally Wang Pu said that as long as there are other countries in the world, the war between countries will not stop, and if you want to realize the concept of love and non-attack, you must dominate the world.

After the unification of the world, there will naturally be no more wars, and without wars, the people will not have to be displaced all the year round, and their lives will naturally be rich, so that there will be a foundation for love.

Wang Pu was clever in his tongue, and after a few debates with the birds, he also understood that if he wanted to eliminate the war, he could not rely on them to stop the conquest between the princes, and he could only unify the world.

So the Mo family's mechanics also began to help Huai Guo make all kinds of siege equipment, you know, although the Mo people entered the Huai Kingdom, but only made city defense equipment and various agricultural tools, after this time, they began to make siege equipment.
