Chapter 548: My Ideal

When you are weaker than others, you must know how to learn to obey, and according to the past allusions, it can be the day when you wait for revenge.

The weak use forbearance to continue to survive, no one will feel how awkward it is in the era when the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period have just ended, and every country in history that is weak and does not know how to stretch and shrink has perished without exception, but there are some countries that can endure what others cannot bear have been revived.

The state of Chu now needs to be forbearing, and this was agreed on before coming to watch the alliance. They already knew that Qi Yan would be in trouble in Shen, and they hoped that Lu Zhe would suffer a painful blow at the location of the alliance, and once Lu Zhe was weakened because of the defeat, the Chu State would have a chance. It's a pity that the Qi Yan coalition not only did not defeat Lu Zhe, but instead let Lu Zhe show his military might in front of the kings of other countries, not only did Wei Han follow him even more desperately, but Qi Yan would definitely not go south in a short time.

Qi Yan, who was able to stir up the storm, not only rested on the idea of going south, but also feared Lu Zhejun because of the fiasco, and it is conceivable that Qi Yan would not only no longer show obvious hostility towards Lu Zhe...... At least he will not show hostility until he wins the decisive battle with Qin, and he will even have to win over a hundredfold to prevent Lu Zhe from intervening in the north when he is at war with Qin.

Of course, no one can say for sure whether Qi and Yan can unite with Zhao and Xiongnu to defeat and destroy Qin, but the chances of winning the war are at least sixty percent. The odds of winning sixty percent are already very high for a war, and it is usually rare to win five or five.

In fact, as the number one main force of the Qin Alliance, Qi State's strategy was a big mistake, I don't know if it was because of geography or because the time was too short, and the mastermind of Qi's strategy has not set his sights on Lu Zhe, who occupied Nanjun.

Does Qi think that a rising power will not be able to help in the attack on Qin, or does it conclude that a newly rising nouveau riche will not grow from the theory of blood? The failure to win over Lu Zhe early, and even the premature exposure of his ambition to go south, made the Chu State vigilant, and also made Lu Zhe, who had gained a firm foothold in the south, have a strong hostility towards the Qi State.

Maybe I really didn't expect Lu Zhe to really be able to stand firm, right? Otherwise, if you have a strategic vision, not only can you not expose your ambition to expand southward too early, but you will also have to win over Lu Zhe to attack Qin at any cost. If Lu Zhe attacked Qin together. The Xiongnu attacked from the north, Qi, Yan, and Zhao attacked from the Central Plains to the east of Qin, and Lü Zhe attacked from Nanjun to Hanzhong County and Ba County in the northwest.

Xiang Liang didn't know if the three kingdoms of Qi, Yan, and Zhao could enter the Qin land from the east, and he didn't know if the Hu people on the grassland, led by the Xiongnu, could really fight outside Xianyang within two months, as they boasted. However, he was sure of one thing, that is, the Central Plains countries were afraid of Lu Zhe, and it was impossible for them to have the desire to go south for a long time.

Not only will the Qi State no longer show its ambitions to go south, Xiang Liang thinks that as long as there are no capable people in the Qi State, otherwise he will definitely wake up and start to woo Lu Zhe in every possible way. At least it will cost a lot of money to win over before the results of the contest with the Qin State come out. If the coalition forces defeated the Qin state, the Qi state was expected to recover its confidence from the crushing defeat of Lü Zhe, and thus produce an unconvinced aggrieved desire to be ashamed, and then it would go south. If the coalition forces could not destroy the Qin State, they could only increase the cost to win over Lü Zhe, because at that time, they not only had to guard against the counterattack of the Qin army, but also were extremely afraid of Lü Zhe going north.

The state of Qi and the corresponding allies will not dare to offend Lü Zhe for a long time, and the coalition forces will concentrate on attacking the state of Qin, so if Lü Zhe wants to destroy Chu, it is destined that there will be no reinforcements.

What can Chu do in this situation? In addition to praying that Lu Zhe did not have the heart to destroy Chu. You can only be careful and careful. And it seems that Xiong Xin has done a good thing, although there must be a reason for targeting the Xiang family, but the woman who will become Lu Zhe seems to have become a lifeline for the Chu State, hoping to use such a relationship to "restrain Lu Zhe" from attacking the Chu State.

Both decided to be careful and attentive. Xiang Liang naturally cooperated with Lu Zhe's next deployment, and even intentionally or unintentionally repeatedly brought the topic to the matter of the Xiang family's fiefdom.

Lu Zhe hadn't figured out what kind of system (form of government) to implement, but he now had a lot of courtiers with fiefs, although those fiefs were wasteland or something. If you have a fief, you also need to pay taxes, but a fief is a fief. Xiang Liang tried to discuss the issue of fiefdom, and Lu Zhe naturally revealed the idea of "possibility" more or less.

According to Lu Zhe's initial idea. It is indispensable to give the courtiers fiefs, after all, people's allegiance and hard work are all for the sake of benefits, why follow without interests? He also seems to remember that the fiefdom system did not disappear even under the centralized system, but only the emperor's sons were replaced by the emperor's sons to be crowned kings and have fiefs, and this system was maintained until the end of the "I Great Qing" system.

Of course, starting from the Western Han Dynasty, the emperors of the land of China would not give a king with a different surname and give a fief unless they were forced to do so. Note that it is not a fief divided by a king, not a fief at all, and there will still be fiefs and food towns that heroes should have. There are also vassals who have full autonomy and belong to the central government, but it usually depends on whether the central government (emperor) has the strength to completely suppress the vassals.

It is really possible for Lu Zhe to assign Ji County to a fief after the Xiang clan takes refuge, but this possibility is extremely small, unless Lu Zhe encounters some dilemma that he will perish without the support of the Xiang clan, otherwise such a thing will never happen. According to his thoughts, followers who have made great contributions must be given equal rewards, and will give fiefs and food estates in the land of China, but will never give the prince a fief.

If it came to the point where he had to give the prince a reward, Lu Zhe knew that this world was very big. If there is a meritorious hero who has the idea (ambition) of becoming a king and founding a country, he will only choose to help lay down a piece of land outside the territory of China, so that these people can be the so-called "extraterritorial" kings (countries). Maybe it's in the Western Regions, maybe it's in South Asia, or maybe it's an island in the sea, and the kingdom of Zhuxia is established one after another with the descendants of China as kings.

It is simply that the "absolute centralization" of the Qin Empire has not been thoroughly implemented, and the concept has not been promoted or entrenched, otherwise the set of ideas in Lu Zhe's vague concept similar to colonizing the whole earth in the form of a kingdom should be drowned by the saliva of a group of loyal ministers.

The great reunification maintained the stability of China's territory, and although it gave China such an idea that "if it is long together, it must be divided, and if it is divided for a long time", it also limited China's ambition to continue to expand outward. After all, under the great unification and centralization, everyone except the emperor is a slave, and the emperor must have to watch the country in order to keep the throne of the slave owner, how dare he let the army go thousands of miles away to expand anything, he will only be afraid of the rebellion of the generals who lead the troops. Therefore, only when the so-called "Emperor of the Ages", who was not afraid of the rebellion of the generals under his command, was in power, the territory of China was expanded, and the emperors who did not have enough authority were invaded, not to mention the use of troops abroad, and the generals were kept in the court like pets to be kept and scrapped.

Successive dynasties are just staring at the so-called "world" in life and death, Lu Zhe really wants to see what it looks like to form a great empire in China itself, and what it looks like for external heroes and heirs to set up a feudal state in a feudal mode, and it is not guaranteed that there is no war among the descendants of China, but the descendants with Chinese blood should not be nailed to a piece of land for a cycle of cannibalism.

Xiang's attachment seems to be possible, but it is only possible, Lu Zhe is not naïve enough to think that he has any "Wang Baqi", the form of the ever-changing world is possible, he does not have a complete plan for boiling frogs in warm water to slowly make the Chu State completely surrender, but in his heart he is already thinking about the possibility of getting Xiang to go to Wa Island to become the owner of the island.

"What?!" Kuaitong was a little dumbfounded: "Those who are willing to stay in China in the future will stay, and those who are confident in creating a foundation will go out to conquer?" ”

There is no concept of what is called the local Kuaitong in China, and it is even more difficult to understand the preliminary concept of the country of Zhuxia that Lu Zhe put forward his cranky ideas.

Don't know if you want to repeat it again? Lu Zhe is really not the ultimate pursuit of being the king and being the emperor, there are not thousands of kings in history, but there are also eight hundred, and the emperor is more like a bamboo shoot.

You must know that there are still countless lands without owners in the world now, and many places are only where the indigenous people of the Stone Age live, and they have crossed a hand to set their life goal to become the emperor of China...... The ambition is too small and too boring. According to the current trend, it is not difficult for Lu Zhe to become the master of China, but in the second hundred years BC, it is challenging to learn from white people to play all over the earth and scatter people, so that there are Chinese descendants in every corner of the earth!

"In my generation, we set up kingdoms everywhere, and then let the natives have crazy children and immigrate to the new kingdom...... I haven't thought about the rest yet, but it's not easy just to do these things. The more Lu Zhe spoke, the more energetic he became, and he simply drew a topographic map of the earth for Kuaitong according to his memory.

Kuaitong didn't know what to say anymore, now they are only occupying the south, and they are not completely occupying the south, there is still a Chu State nest in the southeast, and they have begun to deploy those things that have no score. He finally knew why his monarch kept clamoring to build a naval army, it turned out that he not only wanted to defend the Yangtze River at an unfavorable time to achieve the purpose of consolidating the south of the river, but also what navy he would become in the future, and what four oceans and five continents he would explore, which seemed like listening to myths.

"You'd better think about what you're going to do with what's in front of you, right?" Kuaitong smiled bitterly: "Qin Zhao is fighting fiercely, and Qi Yan is also rushing to the battlefield with red eyes. In three days' time, we will lead our army to ......."

Lu Zhe nodded, but said in his mouth: "Let's fight, before the result of attacking Qin, there is almost nothing to do with us." ”

Kuaitong was thinking in his heart: "It's impossible to be nothing, at most it will be a year or two at most, but this is enough." (To be continued......)
