I’m The King Chapter 995: :Huanghuang Hanwei (one hundred and nineteen)
Hearing that Qu Zhong finished the covenant with Qin almost word by word, Qu Wan's mouth has opened into an o shape, enough to stuff a big duck egg in. Qin and Chu formed an alliance to conspire with Han China, this was something he never dared to imagine before.
"Seeking skins from tigers, can the Taiwei think about it?" Qu Wan asked.
"Of course, everyone in the Qin Dynasty knows the heart of tigers and wolves, but my great Chu is not a wooden sculpture. The king finally cheered up and prepared his troops for war. The Qin people want to unify the Central Plains. Why don't I think so?" Qu Chong Hehe laughed: "The rise of the Han Kingdom has made King Wulie of Qin feel a great threat. He took the initiative to make a covenant with us to destroy the Han, and promised a heavy condition. What's the problem if he agrees!"
"I'm afraid that when the birds are gone, the good bows will be hidden!" Qu Wan looked at Qu Zhong, "Maybe the day when the Han Kingdom perishes is the time when our Chu Kingdom and the Qin Dynasty will see each other."
"That's right, all you said is not a possibility, but a certainty, but at that time, it's still unknown who will win the battle?" Qu nodded and said: "Qu Wan, tell me, we will not fight with Qin. Will the people of Qin come to attack us?"
"The fight is definitely still necessary, but it has to be done in order." Qu Wan said.
"Yes, there must be a war between the two countries, and before that, all we have to do is to accumulate as much power as possible. You know that Qin has promised us this time in order to make a covenant with us. What conditions?"
"I just want to hear about the conditions that make the captain and Lord Shoufu feel excited?" Qu Wan said with a smile.
"The state of Qin ceded the three counties of Han to our state of Chu, and let us annex Qi. They don't want these two places." Qu Zhong looked at Qu Wan with smiling eyes.
"The Qin people are crazy!" Qu Wan exclaimed.
"The people of Qin are not crazy." Qu Zhong shook his head and said, "It's King Wulie of Qin who feels that the threat of Han is imminent, and he wants to solve this suddenly rising country. What kind of ability does this Han country have that can make King Wulie of Qin lose his patience? We know too little about this country.”
"We are too far away from Han!" Qu Wan said.
"It's not far away now, and we will meet soon." Qu Zhong said: "We have no reason to underestimate an opponent that even King Qin Wulie values, and from the performance of King Qin Wulie, he values this opponent and even values us. .Do you understand what I mean?"
"I think King Wulie of Qin's success is crazy. Can a country that has only been established for more than two years compare with my mighty Chu?" Qu Wan sneered.
"But you can't say that." Qu Zhong sighed: "Isn't the Yan Kingdom established for hundreds of years? Where is it now? Qi has a longer history and stronger national power. Isn’t it the state of Han that worships it? There is also the state of Wei, which has basically become a vassal of the Han state. We cannot underestimate such a country at all. I have ordered Yousi to use all available power at all costs , to spy on all the information about Han.”
Qu Wan was silent for a moment: "That is to say, we are going to use troops against the Han Kingdom next?"
"That's right. Han Guo is eyeing Qi Guo covetously, and will never allow us to make great strides forward after taking down Judu. If my estimation is correct, Han Guo Gaoyuan probably thinks that the big fish of Qi has been fattened up. Now, it can be slaughtered and eaten, so the Mengchong Group of the Han Dynasty stationed in Kunzhou will definitely attack Tian Fucheng in Jimo, and then occupy the whole country of Qi." Qu Zhong analyzed.
"The Qi State now occupies the three capitals, and the strength is still there. It won't be so easy, right?"
"It's just a stern look, the people of Qi are struggling to live now, and the levies and miscellaneous taxes are as high as a cow's hair. This time." Qu Zhong sneered.
"I have only 40,000 troops under my command, and Meng Chong's Han army will not be lower than this number, and the combat power is far from comparable to that of the Qi army. We don't have much chance of winning this battle!" Qu Wan said honestly, The Han army has been fighting for more than ten years, and it is not easy to deal with.
"Of course it's more than that. The imperial court will transfer another 40,000 troops to be commanded by you." Qu Zhong laughed.
"Drop another 40,000 troops over here?" Qu Wan asked in surprise.
"Yes, our goal is to occupy the entire Qi State, and to achieve this goal, we must first defeat the Meng Chong Group of the Han Army. If you don’t fight, you’ll be fine, if you fight, you must win.” Qu Zhong’s face became serious, “Qu Wan, can you take on this important task?”
Qu Wan was silent for a moment, "Do your best."
I didn't hear Qu Wan's guarantee, but Qu Zhong seemed relieved, "Okay, I'm really afraid that you will slap your chest and promise in front of me. Then I really can't rest assured. What are you going to do? ?”
"At first, I was going to deal with Tian Fucheng first, but now it seems that this person is a chess piece that can be used." Qu Wan thought for a moment, and said: "If Meng Chong's troops really will invade Qi, If he wants to capture Jimo, Tian Fucheng will definitely not be able to reach him, so if we reach out and give him a hand, he will be very grateful."
"Tian Fucheng is not a fool, does he think we have no purpose?" Guo Kuo interjected.
"We can throw out the condition, that is, we will cede the capital of Judu to Da Qi in his name. Didn't Han Guo also play this trick? Let Mr. Tian sign such a document, Han Guo also Take this cession agreement and run to our Ying city to clamor, saying that our Great Chu has invaded their Han land?" Qu Wan laughed." We can also promise to help Tian Fucheng defeat his brother, now Tian Fucheng is like a drowning man who is about to drown, even if it is a straw, he will firmly grasp it."
"That's right!" Qu Zhong nodded repeatedly, "Although Tian Fucheng suffered repeated defeats, he still has Cheng Siwei and Wang Pei under his command, and he can still make up 40,000 to 50,000 troops. We sent out 40,000 people, and they used their entire army to fight Meng Chong in Jimo. As long as Meng Chong's army is defeated, it will be difficult for Han to extend its hand to Qi for a while, because at this time, Qin's The army wanted to come and kill it. And we have also completed the covenant with the Qin State, and then we will concentrate on running the Qi State, two young masters, please go to Ying City to spend your old age in peace!"
Qu Zheng laughed.
Jimo, Tian Fucheng, just as Qu Zhong said, has completely become a trapped beast, and it is a trapped beast full of scars. The good scene when the army was just started, with the development of the current situation, it has now disappeared It was completely unfavorable to him, and he was completely compressed to a corner of Jimo by the troops of his eldest brother Tian Yuanyuan. It can be said that he was surrounded by enemies. Good intentions, but on the other hand, the Chu army who occupied Judu also flashed their fangs at him from time to time. Although the world is big, looking around, he has only enemies and no friends.
"Second son, the only solution for now is to beg for peace from the eldest son." Wang Pei looked haggard, fighting for years without getting the slightest chance to rest, even in his prime, he was exhausted .
"Beg to him? Do you want me to die?" Tian Fucheng growled and looked at Wang Pei. If another person said this, I'm afraid he would have chopped it down.
"Second son, the current situation is such that we have nowhere to go. During this period of time, the Han army has been mobilizing frequently, and Meng Chong, the commander of the Han army's southern group army, has frequently appeared at the forefront. How can we resist the Han army? There are also the Red Scarf Army and Tian Jingwen, we have already lost this battle." Wang Pei said patiently: "If you beg for peace with the eldest son, you may not necessarily die. Young master, after all, he is a compatriot of the same mother. You also know the heart of the eldest son. What he wants is to unify the Qi country and reappear the glory of the great Qi. Now that we can't do this, why don't we just admit defeat? Right now the Qi State is in a precarious situation, and the Eldest Young Master will definitely ignore the past, I think what the Eldest Young Master wants is for you to kneel to him, could it be that he really killed you?"
"But I just don't want to kneel to him!" Tian Fucheng roared.
"Second son, keep the green hills. We are not afraid of running out of firewood. We beg for peace from the eldest son, rest our troops, and stop the war. But at the same time, we also ask to preserve our current strength and Jimo's fiefdom as the second son. In this way, although we Begged for peace with the eldest son, but still retains some independence." Wang Peidao.
Tian Fucheng began to feel a little excited, "If this is the case, it is also feasible, but who should be sent to ask him for peace?"
"The second son forgot, is there another person here?" Seeing that Tian Fucheng was persuaded, Wang Pei was overjoyed.
Tian Fucheng also suddenly thought of this person, "You mean Chen Dai? This old turtle, I enshrined him with delicious food and drink every day, but he took pleasure in scolding me. I really want to cut him with a knife. .”
"This man is of great use now!" Wang Pei said with a smile: "Chen Dai's bones are indeed hard, but he is the minister of Da Qi, go down and tell him, now Da Qi is facing such a situation. In such a predicament, Chen Dai will definitely try his best to persuade the eldest son to accept our begging and conditions with the idea of thinking about Da Qi."
"Old man Chen Dai, if this is done, I can spare him the crime of disrespect!" Tian Fucheng nodded and said: "Go and tell him, I don't want to see this old man."
Chen Dai had just finished his meal, and was sitting comfortably on the grand teacher's chair, enjoying the cool breeze from a waiter's fan behind him. There are no dirty words, just citing scriptures and classics, and every word is embarrassing. People who don't understand don't know what he is scolding. People who understand, like Tian Fucheng, can only vomit blood with anger.
"Chen Liushou is so energetic!" Wang Pei appeared in front of the door with a smile.
"Of course the spirit is good, this unfaithful, unkind, and unrighteous thing is about to end now, right?" Chen Dai laughed and said, "Is there any reason why I have a bad spirit?"
"The second son is indeed in a difficult situation now, but it is not because of the hard work of the eldest son, but because the Han army is about to attack." Wang Pei said lightly. (To be continued)
