Chapter 433 433
For the sake of his own career, Wang Xuan chose to collude with the Xiang family, and at the same time damage certain interests of Wei and allies.
From a strategic point of view, if the Three Jin Dynasty coalition forces destroy the Xiang family, then Wei and Han will divide the Xiang family, control the western part of the Chu State, and greatly reduce the strategic space of the Chu State.
And all the way to the hinterland of the Chu State, attacking the center of the Chu State, even if the attack is down? Ransack the Yingdu of Chu to get a certain amount of resources.
But the resources of the three kingdoms in the Three Jin Alliance, except for the Zhao State, which is not more than the resources of the capital of the Chu State?
Even if Yingdu has a lot of resources, how much can each family get?
Moreover, the breakthrough of Yingdu does not mean the destruction of the Chu State, and the three Jin coalition forces still have to sign an agreement with the central government of the Chu State to obtain some resources and territories on the border of the Chu State under the control of the Central Committee of the Chu State.
The border territory controlled by the central government of Chu is actually a little territory in the north, and that place is actually mountainous, and it does not border South Korea, and South Korea will not agree to Wei to get this territory.
After all, he can't get the territory in South Korea, can he let Wei get it? Apparently impossible?
If South Korea does not support Wei to seize the territory of Chu, then Zhao will not support it, Zhao does not border with Chu, and came to fight Chu, in fact, it is to divide some resources, and if they can get resources, their purpose of Zhao has been achieved.
Of course, this time to reconcile with Wei was because of Zhao's shortage of resources, so he had to reconcile with Wei.
Although the territory of Zhao is not small, most of them are wasteland, grasslands, deserts, and only some territories in the south of Zhao can be cultivated, and these territories can supply him with some grain and grass resources or something.
Therefore, for Zhao Guo, they got the resources, in fact, the purpose has been achieved, and in the later period, Zhao Guo will not let the benefits of the two countries completely exceed that of Zhao Guo for his own sake.
And even if Yingdu is breached, when Wu Qi arrives, this is another tough battle, and if the back is not completely broken, there is a risk of being cut by the enemy at any time.
In Han Shijie's view, this Wang Xuan has no strategic common sense and strategic overall view, so Han Shijie is very opposed to Wang Xuan's plan.
However, Zhao Hao's Zhao Guo was extremely calm, this time he Zhao Guo followed the coalition army, and the cavalry was dispatched, and their cavalry was mainly looting, and what Wang Xuan did was actually in line with his Zhao State ideas.
He Zhao Guo came to Chu State, just to take advantage of the fire to rob and loot Chu State, he Zhao State did not think about the Chu State to cut the land or something, and Zhao Hao thought in his heart at this time, if he broke through Yingdu, how much treasure could he Zhao Guo get, after all, Chu State Yingdu is the richest.
Wang Xuan looked at Han Shijie: "General Han, although I am the commander of the Three Jin Alliance, after all, this is under the jurisdiction of the Three Kingdoms, and we still vote to decide the movements of the three armies?" ”
Wang Xuan's words are very democratic, this is because Wang Xuan knows that Zhao Hao actually agrees with his strategy, Han Shijie also nodded after listening to Wang Xuan's words, he felt that Zhao Guo should have the same idea as him.
After all, the western position of Zhao State has greatly reduced the strategic space of Chu State, which is equivalent to completely weakening Chu State, which is a very good thing for the Three Jin Dynasty.
But Han Shijie forgot that it was not his Zhao State that stood in front of the Chu State, but the Wei State and South Korea, and the Three Jin Alliance also collapsed due to the invasion of the Zhao State by the Wei State.
For Zhao State, what does the strength and weakness of Chu have to do with him? The strong state of Chu is fighting your Wei and South Korea, the state of Chu is weak, it is beneficial to you Wei and Han, you are strong, isn't my Zhao country in danger?
The current state of Zhao is no longer the same as it was at the beginning, regarding Korea and Wei as iron-blooded allies, and the interests and damages of the three are in the same relationship.
Zhao's current strategy is the supremacy of Zhao, and Zhao Yong of Zhao also knew at this time that the alliance could not be limited to Wei and Han, and it was not impossible to occasionally form an alliance with Chu, or with Qi, or even with Qin.
Wang Xuan looked at Zhao Hao on the side: "General Zhao, what should we do with your intentions?" Is it the Xiang family, which is strong in soldiers and horses, or the capital Yingdu that goes all the way east to the hinterland of Chu State, so as to loot the entire Chu State! ”
Wang Xuan's strategy was not to finish the Yingdu, but to finish the Yingdu, so as to spread all the way through the Yingdu, burn and plunder, and burn the central part of the Chu State.
Wang Xuan's doing this can indeed be regarded as weakening the Chu State, but it is only to weaken the Chu royal family, but it will be of great benefit to the Xiang family and the Zhao family.
If the royal family is weak and can't look down on it, will this family and the Zhao family take their place blatantly?
And the Xiang family's plan in their hearts is that this coalition army will invade Yingdu and kill the Chu royal family, then his Xiang family can also justifiably play the banner of avenging the king and 'call the king'!
Of course, since it is under the banner of royal revenge, you must find a puppet, but the person who has the right to inherit in Chu has already been slaughtered when King Chu Huai died, and only one Xiong Su and Xiong Dang remain.
At that time, the king of Chu mourning was killed by the coalition army, and Xiong Dang was pulled by him and established as the king of Chu, and Xiong Dang was not very old, and when the time was almost right, let Xiong Dang write a Zen edict, then he Xiang Yan would be the future king of Chu.
This is also the reason why Xiang Yan let the Sanjin coalition army enter the central Chu State smoothly, that is, Xiang Yan wanted to use the Sanjin coalition army to kill the Chu clan and weaken the central Chu State.
As for the Zhao family, he was not afraid, when the time came, he won the support of the Qin State, and at the same time held Xiong Dang hostage, which proved that it was smooth, whether from the perspective of strength or morality, Xiang Yan felt that he was much stronger than his Zhao family.
As for the Qu family of the three major families, his Xiang family doesn't need to think about it at all, the Qu family has a traitor like Qu Yuan, and the Qu family is destined to be unable to compare with the other Xiang family and the Zhao family.
Xiang Yanjue's and the Three Jin Dynasty coalition forces entered Yingdu, and I am afraid that the Qu family would also be slaughtered.
Because of Qu Yuan, the base camp of the Qu family has also been moved to Yingdu.
The first is to respond to the call of the king of Chu to mourn the king, and the second is that the Qu family settled in Yingdu, in order to become the largest family in Yingdu and the first force in Yingdu.
When the king of Chu mourns succeeds in cutting the lord, then his Qu Yuan family will be the only head of the Xiong family in the Chu State, and as for the Xiang family and the Zhao family, they cannot be compared with his Qu family at all.
Zhao Hao glanced at Wang Xuan, then stroked his beard, then looked at Han Shijie and said: "I very much agree with the marshal's idea, this Yingdu is the center of the Chu State, if we break through, the morale of the Chu State will definitely be greatly weakened, and secondly, Yingdu is the capital of the Chu State, and there must be a lot of treasures in the city, if we break it, we will definitely get good loot!" ”
Han Shijie was stunned when he heard it, he didn't expect Zhao Hao to agree with Wang Xuan's opinion, in Han Shijie's eyes, the interests of the Three Jin Coalition were still in the same period, so he felt surprised and shocked that Zhao Hao would agree with Wang Xuan.
