Chapter 435 435
"No, King Zhao, this is just an opportunity for us to attack the Chu State in a big way!" Zhang Yi looked at King Qin Zhao and said.
King Qin Zhao looked at Zhang Yi with a puzzled face: "How can Xiangguo say that this is an opportunity?" If we enter the Chu State, what if this Qi State comes to attack us under the banner of the allies of the Chu State? ”
King Qin Zhao did not want to start a war with the State of Qi, after all, the State of Qi was the overlord of the princes in the world, and its military and financial resources were the top of the vassal states, and the comprehensive national strength was at the level of the hegemon among the vassal states.
Although the state of Chu is known as the crown of the vassal states, after all, the national strength of the state of Chu cannot be integrated, while the state of Qi is the national strength after complete integration.
"My Qin State is in the west of Chu State, and Qi State is in the east of Chu State, even if he supports Chu State, he can't quickly reinforce it, after all, now the nobles of Chu State are divided one after another, even if Qi State wants to help, it is powerless!" Zhang Yi said to King Qin Zhao.
"And this Qi State doesn't want to support the Chu State, if the Qi State wants to support the Chu State, he has already supported it when he is in civil strife, and he won't watch from the sidelines!" Zhang Yi said to King Qin Zhao.
"Although this Qi country has the power of the overlord and can be a thief, he has to be a thief!" Zhang Yi looked at King Qin Zhao and said.
"The civil strife of the Chu State, are you so sure that there is no hand of the Qi State behind it?" Zhang Yi looked at King Qin Zhao and said.
King Qin Zhao was stunned when he heard this: "Xiangguo means that the nobles of this Chu State are in civil strife, and the Qi State has already intervened in the civil strife of Chu State?" ”
"That's right, although he didn't send troops to the Chu State, there is definitely a shadow of the Qi State in the civil strife in Chu!" Zhang Yi said to King Qin Zhao.
"If we occupy the western part of the Chu State, I think that the Qi State will definitely occupy the eastern part of the Chu State!" Zhang Yi analyzed for King Qin Zhao.
Zhang Yi could see what Qi was thinking, maybe Qi was thinking about Chu as an ally and needed Chu as an ally, but Zhang Yi was sure that if Qin took away the western part of Chu, then Qi would also steal the eastern part of Chu like a thief.
Moreover, Zhang Yi saw in what Qi did that Qi was a country with a thief's heart and no thief's guts, and it could be forcibly snatched, so it had to use some small means to steal from the other party's back little by little, and he was afraid of making a big move, so he had been cautious to win benefits for Qi State.
Therefore, Zhang Yi said that although Qi has the posture of a hegemon and can act as a thief, he has to be a thief, in order to win a little profit, he secretly rejoices.
Now among the princes, Qi is indeed the overlord, but as Zhang Yi said, Qi has been doing some things cautiously, if Qi shows the posture of the hegemon, Zhang Yijue should directly swallow the Song State and look at the world.
The Qi State does have the strength to swallow the rich Song State in one go, and then look at the world, but Qi Xiaobai is worried about attracting the alliance of various countries.
And Zhang Yijue's if the positions of Qi and Qin are exchanged, he will definitely do this, swallow the Song State, even if it attracts the alliance of all countries and the alliance to attack it, he is not afraid, after all, I am the overlord, you are just a group of small countries, a rabble, my dignified overlord country, can you be afraid of your rabble?
"The Xiang family has come to us, if we want to steal the western part of the Chu State, we want to be the enemy of the Xiang family, isn't it not good?" King Qin Zhao looked at Zhang Yi and asked.
In fact, King Qin Zhao had plans to unite with the Xiang family and plot against Wei.
However, Zhang Yi looked at King Qin Zhao: "King Zhao, what benefits can you get by conspiring with the Xiang family?" Plotting against Wei? If we get the land of the Xiang family, it is equivalent to getting the strength of the entire Xiang family, and at that time, it is much better to fight Wei without relying on the support of the Xiang family? ”
"This family is strong and strong, and there are many fierce generals, if you want to make a contribution, you will lose a lot of people!" King Qin Zhao looked at Zhang Yi and said.
This is also the reason why a family dares to unite with a Western strong Qin, the Xiang family has its own capital, that is, the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, and the fierce generals are like clouds.
Although the strength of the Xiang family is not very large, the warriors of the Xiang family are extremely powerful in combat, and it is not boasting to be one against two.
"As long as the king wants to seize the western part of the Chu State, then the minister is willing to offer advice and destroy the Xiang family at the lowest cost!" Zhang Yi said to King Qin Zhao.
"Having obtained the western part of the Chu State, the strategic depth of our Qin State has been greatly expanded, and at the same time, it can threaten the Wei and Han of the Central Plains, and the western part of the Chu State is not all barren land, but also has some rich places, which can bring some good resources to my Qin State!" Zhang Yi said to King Qin Zhao.
"Then sir's will!" King Qin Zhao looked at Zhang Yi and said.
King Qin Zhao still believed in Zhang Yi very much, since Zhang Yi could take away the western part of Qin at the smallest cost, then he would definitely be able to take away the western part of Qin at the smallest cost.
What's more, where is Zhang Yi's reputation, the Four Friends of the Ghost Valley, one of the four most talented people in the world, and it is rumored that Zhang Yi is the head of the Four Friends of the Ghost Valley.
"Thank you for your trust!" Zhang Yi clasped his fists and said to King Qin Zhao.
After Zhang Yi finished speaking, he turned around and left, King Qin Zhao sat on the big seat, looking into the distance, as the lord of the Zhongxing of the Qin State, he was under a lot of pressure.
When he first took over the Qin State, the Qin State was dilapidated and dilapidated, and he lost the land west of the river, in order to be able to prosper and strengthen the country, so he continued to reuse the Shangjun Code, and also recruited talents, recruited some talented people, and even attracted Zhang Yi, who is known as the Four Friends of the Ghost Valley.
Subsequently, he did the first major thing in Zhongxing, that is, to seize the land west of Hexi that was taken by Wei, and second, to restore the national strength of Qin.
Because of the urgent need to reuse Shang Jun's legal code, Qin's national strength had recovered rapidly at this time, but because of Shang Jun's cultivation strategy, he Qin needed a big war to divert the contradictions within Qin.
Because of the Shang Jun Code, the family and aristocratic forces in the Qin State were a little unhappy, and the people were a little out of breath because of the pressure of cultivating the fields.
If a major war is not fought, when the people are crushed by the pressure of the Qin state, and the aristocratic families are too damaged because of their interests, a civil war will break out.
However, King Qin Zhao was not afraid of civil strife among the nobles, because he had absolute military strength, and he was mainly worried about the people because of the pressure and the people's uprising, and the grain and grass of the Qin State could not be actively stored at that time.
Internal attrition and great loss of national strength made his national strength, which he had managed to recover, fall again.
King Qin Zhao originally wanted to win over the Qi State, march into the Three Jin Dynasty together, and enter the Central Plains together, and the world was divided into two, called the 'East and West Emperors'.
But Qi Xiaobai has no intention of entering the Sanjin, as if he has no intention of carving up the world, as Zhang Yi said, Qi Xiaobai has the posture of a hegemon, has the power of a hegemon, but does not do the things of the overlord, but does some things like puppies and kittens.
And he didn't dare to fight with Sanjin alone, after all, Sanjin is not a vegetarian, although he Qin Guoqiang is strong, but if he goes to fight Sanjin, it is very likely that he will be beaten as it is.
