Han Wang Jise promised what conditions to the Chu State in private, and outsiders have no way of knowing.

However, under the witness of the kings of Qin and Zhao, South Korea swore an oath to continue to attack Chu, which suddenly made the three kingdoms of Qi, Wei and Song who got the news breathe a sigh of relief.

Wei State Liang.

King Wei let out a long breath, then looked at Wei Xiangzhai and said: "Great, the widow was worried that after the death of King Han, a civil strife would break out in Korea because of the dispute between the two sons. In this way, the weak plan that has been planned by the widow for a long time will also be interrupted.

Fortunately, King Qin understood the righteousness and resolutely gave up this ally of South Korea, and then South Korea threw himself into the arms of Zhao, which was exchanged for the great plan of the five countries to continue to attack Chu. ”

Zhai Qiang nodded, and then arched his hand: "Great King, although the plan of the Five Kingdoms to attack Chu has continued, but now that South Korea has invested in Zhao State, and the relationship between Zhao and Yan is extraordinary, plus Zhao State has just annexed Zhongshan State.

As a result, the strength of Zhao State skyrocketed, and the three kingdoms of Zhao Yan and Han joined forces, which was enough for Zhao State and Qin Qi to compete for the position of the overlord of the world. ”

"Yes, Xiangguo is reasonable." King Wei nodded thoughtfully, and then spoke: "A few days ago, Lord Zhao and King Qin met outside Xinzheng, and then the two countries intervened in the Korean throne together, it is difficult to say whether they have reached some shady deals.

Moreover, Qin is a country of tigers and wolves, so I can't believe it at all. ”

Speaking of this, King Wei hesitated for a moment, and then said: "During the last war, the State of Chu was about to make peace with the State of Qin, but this matter was destroyed by the widows. And this time the Five Kingdoms attacked Chu, and my Wei State was the main force among them.

Therefore, if the widow's expectation is good, on the side of the Chu State, presumably the Chu State must be gritting the teeth of the widow.

In this way, there is not much room for the widow to choose. ”

Saying that, King Wei pondered for a while, and said with some heartache and expectation: "Before, the King of Qi sent people to ask the widow to transfer the two counties west of Pushui and the subject country of Weiguo to the State of Qi, but before the widow delayed the matter because the war was not over.

Now it seems that the land promised to Qi State before cannot be delayed, as long as the widow still has the Qi State as aid, as long as the three kingdoms of Qi, Wei and Song are also together, the widow is not afraid of the three kingdoms of Zhao, Yan and Han, and even more afraid of the two countries of Qin and Chu.

When the widows completely control the newly acquired land of Huaibei, at that time, our Wei State can still compete for the hegemony of the world. ”

"The king is wise."

King Wei smiled and said: "Send an edict to General Xiwu and General Ni Liang, telling them to step up the offensive against the Chu State, and the widows will completely drive the sphere of influence of the Chu State to Huainan this time." ”

"Yui."

"Also, tell Gongsun Xi not to disappoint the widow, and also not to bear the name of Xiwu."

"Yui."

The other side.

After receiving the news of Korea, the Qi and Song dynasties also issued similar orders, urging the front-line generals to step up their offensive against Chu.

Huaibei Juyang Qi army camp.

Qi general Kuang Zhang, Wei general Gongsun Xi, Song general Su He, all three of them got together again after receiving the edicts of their respective kings.

At this time, Kuang Zhang looked at the two generals in front of him and said, "Two, presumably you have also received an order from the monarch to urge the war." ”

When Su He heard this, his face suddenly became stiff.

He knew in his heart that he was under the most pressure among the three people present. Not only to drive the Chu State to Huainan in order to keep the newly acquired Huaibei land of the Song State, but more importantly, not long ago, Zuo Cheng, the envoy of the Chu State, won the prize in the Song State Palace and scolded the King of Song bitterly, the so-called king humiliated the ministers to death, and now he is still shouldering the heavy responsibility of washing away the shame for the king.

This invisible burden had already weighed him down, and King Song sent an edict asking him to conquer Juyang as soon as possible, and these tangible pressures pressed on his heart like a thousand boulders.

Thinking about it, Su He immediately responded: "Yes, now we have been attacking Juyang for more than half a year, but we have not achieved any results for a long time, seeing that on the side of Hanbei, the king of Chu has already called a strong woman to fight, and on our side, the Chu people have not even sent a single reinforcement."

So it's no wonder that the king thinks we're not fighting well. ”

When Gongsun heard this, his right hand angrily slapped it on the table in front of him, making a loud "snap" sound, and after seeing Kuang Zhang and Su He all looking over, he said angrily: "This is our ineffective fighting, this is obviously that Zhao Ju is too cunning, and has repeatedly launched surprise attacks on us through familiar land lines and rivers, so that we can't attack Juyang City with all our strength at all." ”

After speaking, Gongsun Xi sighed again: "The Juyang Yellow Kingdom has already penetrated hundreds of miles into the territory of the Chu State, and we are not familiar with the terrain here at all, and we can't expect Zhaoju to suddenly appear from somewhere. Even though we have been in Huaibei for nearly a year now, we still haven't figured out the terrain of the Yellow Kingdom, and now we only have a rough understanding of the terrain near Juyang.

But even so, we haven't completely figured out some of the trails and streams on this side of Juyang. ”

At this time, as soon as Kuang Zhang heard the words of the two, he remembered King Qi's plan to ask him to delay and consume the strength of the four kingdoms of Qin, Wei, Han and Chu, and immediately nodded: "Yes, the State of Chu has deployed 300,000 heavy troops in the two places of Juyang and Huangguo, and Zhao Ju has led elite troops outside, invading our rear from time to time, so that we can't attack the city with all our strength at all.

Therefore, the meaning of this general is that if you want to break the Huaibei first, you will first break the Juyang, and if you want to break the Juyang, you will first break the Zhaoju Division, as long as the Zhaoju Department is defeated, the Juyang Huangcheng will inevitably shake, so that we will attack the Juyang City again, it will be much easier, maybe, under the fear of the Chu State, the Juyang Huangcheng will also be broken by us in one fell swoop. ”

When Gongsun heard this, he remembered the words in the edict of King Wei not long ago that made him live up to the name of Xiwu, and a hatred for Zhaoju suddenly arose in his heart.

Thinking about it, Gongsun Xi immediately responded: "Yes, if you want to conquer Huaibei, you must first break Zhaoju." ”

When Su He heard this, he thought about it, and found that he had no good way, so he had to echo: "Okay, then break Zhaoju first." ”

After Kuang Zhang saw that the two agreed, he immediately spoke: "Okay, since the two generals have no opinion, then I will feint to attack Juyang next, and then use most of my strength to find Zhaoju's subordinates."

As long as we find Zhao Ju's department, then we will either set up an ambush on the side of Juyang, or set up an ambush at the place where Huangcheng Shou County came to Juyang, or take the opportunity to intercept Zhao Ju and confront him head-on, and we must take the opportunity to defeat Zhao Ju no matter what. ”

"Good!"

······

Fangcheng.

Xiong Huai read the information from Chen Zhen, and then quietly passed the information to the side of the receiver.

Jiezi took the information and looked at it, and immediately frowned: "As expected, under the persecution of Qin and Zhao, even if King Han has his heart set on Chu State, he cannot disobey the will of Qin and Zhao." Even, an important condition for King Jise of Han to ascend the throne was to promise Qin and Zhao to continue to attack Chu. ”

Speaking of this, Jiezi looked at the things that King Han had promised, and he was also full of scheming.

What does it mean that as long as the king of Chu is still there, now the king is in his sixties, and he can live to seventy, which is also a long life, and South Korea will not send troops to attack Chu in the past few years, this oath is full of perfunctory.

However, at this time, he saw that King Chu's face was full of joy, but he didn't say this.

Instead, he reminded vaguely: "Han Wang Jise is already King Han after all, and he is no longer the Korean hostage son of the past." ”

When Xiong Huai heard this, he smiled indifferently and said: "It's okay, King Han died of illness at the critical time of the Five Kingdoms' invasion of Chu, which caused the morale of the Wei and Han coalition forces to drop greatly, and gave the widow more than ten days of respite, which is enough."

Moreover, King Han can still remember the favor of the widow, which is an extra joy. The widow doesn't have many requirements, and the widow only hopes that Han Wang Jise can always remember the widow's kindness, and can help my Chu State at a critical time in the future, just like his grandfather pulled Zhao Guo at a critical time in Zhao State.

So the widow was satisfied. ”

Jiezi nodded, and then said with a heavy face: "However, after South Korea announced that it would continue to attack Chu, we may face another bloody battle next." ”

"Bloody war?" Xiong Huai remembered that in the past ten days, reinforcements from all over the country had been arriving at the front line, and at this time, 80,000 warriors had gathered on the side of Fangcheng, and even Luyang had 30,000 warriors to reinforce.

Thinking of this, Xiong Huai smiled and said: "This battle has already been won, but when exactly will it win, it depends on the will of God." ”

As he spoke, Xiong Huai turned his gaze to the south, and at this moment he seemed to have seen a downpour constantly advancing from south to north.
