"Rumors?"

"What rumors?"

The other ministers were equally puzzled.

Chen Zhen still said calmly: "I heard that in order to monopolize the benefits of the King of Yan, Zhao not only rejected the request of Wei and Han to send troops to attack Yan, but also put the prince under house arrest. Now Gongzi wanted to leave Zhao and go to Qin, but was stopped by Zhao, and for months he burst into tears every day in the direction of the setting sun. ”

"I am worried about the misfortune of Yan Guo, but also worried about my own misery, and now Gongzi is not an ordinary tear every day, but two blood tears."

The ministers all nodded knowingly.

They have all heard of these contents more or less, it is true that Zhao rejected Wei State, but did he reject South Korea!

That was the son-in-law that Zhao bought Korea and exchanged it for a very high price.

Otherwise, Zhao Guo wanted to set up the prince as a hostage in South Korea as the king of Yan, how could South Korea easily stop and give away a good card in his hand for no reason.

As for Gongzizhi's worries and tears, this is a rumor from Zhao State, and the purpose is to force Qin State to send troops as soon as possible.

The purpose of Chen Zhen's rumor is to explain that the prince's position and Zhao State are separated, and once the Qin State sends troops, it will be the Qin State alone to reap the fruits of the re-establishment of the Yan King.

This is indeed a big temptation for the Qin State.

Jing Li thought for a while and asked Chen Zhen: "Keqing, although this rumor is useful, it is probably not enough for the Qin State. ”

Chen Zhen nodded and admitted: "Ling Yin is extremely true, this article alone is indeed not enough for the Qin State to send troops. ”

"So we also need to prepare another rumor that is not a rumor, forcing the Qin State to send troops as soon as possible."

Xiong Huai perked up and asked, "What other rumors?" ”

Chen Zhen replied: "Great King, now the Qin State and the four kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, Han and Yan have formed an alliance to fight against the Qi State together. Before Qi withdrew its troops from Yan, the four kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, Han, and Yan all needed to gain the support of Qin in order to fight against the powerful Qi state. In this case, the Four Kingdoms would not be separated from the Qin State, which is also the reason why the Qin State had nothing to fear. ”

"But the Qin State has obviously forgotten that in this world, in addition to the Qin State being able to fight against Qi and foreign countries, our Chu State can also fight against the Qi State, and unlike the Qin State that was defeated by the Qi State, our Chu State has been at war with the Qi State for many years, but we have never suffered a loss."

When Chen Zhen said this, everyone in the hall nodded, whether it was the former King of Chu Wei or the current King of Chu, whether it was a diplomatic confrontation or a military confrontation, they all had the upper hand.

If you want to talk about who has more advantages in attacking Qi and Chu, I am afraid that even Qin itself will admit that Qin is not as good as Chu in this regard.

At the very least, the state of Chu could directly attack the state of Qi, while the state of Qin had to cross the two countries of Wei and Han.

Chen Zhen continued: "The reason why our Chu State did not send troops to attack Qi State before, on the one hand, was that most of the troops were contained by Qin State, and on the other hand, because we were still allied with Qi State, and there was not much benefit from attacking Qi State. ”

"Now that the situation has changed, we have made peace with the State of Qin, and we have also broken off relations with the State of Qi. Now our Chu State can also participate in the alliance of all countries to resist Qi, if our Chu State joins the alliance, Weichen thinks about it, except for Qin, other countries are welcome, especially when Qin State is unwilling to send troops to attack Qi. ”

Zhao Ju glanced at Chen Zhen in surprise when he heard this, as if he didn't know Chen Zhen anymore, and praised: "Keqing is reasonable. ”

Chen Zhen bowed his head and continued: "Great King, if the Six Kingdoms Joint Attack is held again now, then the Great King's chances of serving as the leader of the alliance will probably far exceed that of King Qin. ”

"If the Great King serves as the leader of the alliance, then the Qin State wants to secretly plot against our Chu State, and also weigh the strength of our five countries. The matter of the Five Kingdoms attacking Qin, not only the Qin State has not forgotten, but also our Chu State has not forgotten it. ”

Xiong Huai was stunned, he only thought about guarding against the Qin State, but he didn't expect that Chen Zhen could persecute the Qin State with just two rumors.

Especially the latter one, there is no need to treat it as a rumor at all, but it can be directly put into action and let the Chu State really participate.

Once the five kingdoms accept the alliance of Chu, then the king of Qin will definitely stand aside and join the position of the leader of the alliance, Xiong Huai said that he will not give in.

Because the King of Qin had no way to compete with the State of Chu at all.

You must know that in the past few years, the war between the Qin State and the Three Jin Dynasty has not stopped at all.

The reason why Qin and Wei and Han formed an alliance was because Wei and Han could not defeat Qin and were forced by Qin to form an alliance by force.

Although Zhao was not forced to form an alliance by Qin by force, there were several major wars between Zhao and Qin.

The state of Chu is different, in addition to a big contradiction and a big war with the state of Wei, the state of Chu has only pitted South Korea with Zhao and Han, and there is some dirt with the state of Zhao, and there is no big war.

It is necessary for Zhao Wei Han to choose a big brother between Chu and Qin, and aside from Korea at both ends of the head, Zhao and Wei will choose Chu even if they vote with their feet.

Thinking of this, Xiong Huai smiled and said: "Xianqing, you think that if our Chu State directly participates in it, if the Qin State does not send troops to attack Qi, then our five countries will attack Qi State together." ”

"According to the widows, the Qi State without Hangu Pass and Wuguan will face the attack of the Five Kingdoms, I am afraid that there will be the possibility of losing the country."

Thinking of the wealth of the Qi State, Xiong Huai swallowed his saliva unconsciously, it was the richest country in the world, especially the Qi State had recently made a windfall in the Yan Kingdom.

Hearing this, Chen Zhen admonished: "Great King, it is feasible for our Chu State to join the alliance, but we can't hold the expectation of destroying the Qi State and attack the Qi State on a large scale. Because of the destruction of the Qi Kingdom, it is impossible at present. ”

Xiong Huai asked suspiciously, "Xianqing, why is this?" ”

Chen Zhen replied: "Great King, because the King of Qi is wise and the ministers of the Qi State are virtuous, and there is also the Qin State. ”

Xiong Huai nodded.

Indeed, the current King of Qi is a peerless ruthless man who can attack Zhong Wuyan, a wise monarch is ruthless to himself to such an extent, it is difficult for Qi to be strong or not.

Based on this alone, Xiong Huai is ashamed of himself.

And Xiong Huai not only thinks that he can't compare, I'm afraid that all the monarchs of all dynasties are not as powerful as the current King of Qi.

Not to mention the Jixia School Palace in Qi State, but it is a veritable academic center in the world, the strongest think tank in the world, and there is no one.

It would be too difficult for such a Qi country to destroy it.

Not to mention that there is a powerful Qin State behind it.

Xiong Huai asked, "Xianqing, in your opinion, how should our Chu State be?" ”

Chen Zhen replied: "Great King, because the State of Qi will only be weakened, not destroyed, and our State of Chu borders on the State of Qi, in order to prevent the State of Qi from recovering its strength and retaliating against our State of Chu, it is better to let both the two countries of Qin and Qi lose." ”

"Therefore, we first sent envoys to the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei and Han to make a posture of Chu joining the alliance. Then the Zhu State moved to the Wei border, causing signs of the confluence of Chu and Wei, in order to force the Qin State to make a choice as soon as possible. ”

"The negotiations for our Chu State to join the alliance cannot be completed in a short period of time, so the Qin State has two choices during this time. Either the division is divided into Chu, or the division is rejuvenated. ”
