Chapter 1391: Han Banner World (Eighty-One) 1 Wish

September in Yingdu is the best season of the year. The chrysanthemum exhibition that has just ended has left Yingdu with the fragrance of flowers. Various colors and varieties of chrysanthemums can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys. Chrysanthemums, King Huai loved chrysanthemums, and the whole country of Chu started a trend of raising chrysanthemums, admiring chrysanthemums, and competing with chrysanthemums. If you could cultivate a good-looking chrysanthemum, it would be possible to become rich overnight in the Chu country.

King Huai of Chu felt that now was the best time for Chu. He even felt that his prestige was very likely to be compared with that of the famous and famous kings among his ancestors. In September, the State of Chu had just experienced several great events. First, the marriage of Princess Shuyu, the most beloved daughter of King Huai. After being greatly hurt in the State of Yan, Shuyu returned to the State of Chu and spent several years raising her. It hurts my heart. Originally, King Chu Huai was planning to find a good son-in-law for his daughter in the country, but he didn't expect his daughter to already have a sweetheart, and this man was a high-ranking general of the powerful Han Dynasty. For King Huai of Chu, this was a double happiness. Killing two birds with one stone was like killing two birds with one stone. It not only fulfilled his daughter’s wish, but also created an additional communication bridge between Chu and Han. , he was naturally extremely satisfied. The second happy event is the chrysanthemum exhibition that has just ended. Perhaps it is precisely because the state of Chu has swept away its decline and gradually revealed its former glory of dominating the world. At this year's chrysanthemum exhibition, several plants appeared one after another that were only rumored. The king of Chu spent tens of thousands of dollars to keep the unique chrysanthemum in his palace. Now, if I don't look at it a few times every day, I can't eat or sleep well.

The third happy event was naturally that the Chu army advanced in the southern part of the Qin State. The 200,000 troops led by Qu Wan took advantage of the civil strife in Qin and swept across the southern part of the Qin State in just a few months. Now, except for the southern part of the country, Except for the central city of Sanchuan County, which is still resisting in the surrounding area, the rest of the land has been included in the territory of Chu State. That is dozens of cities and thousands of miles of territory.

Eight hundred years of dynasty, five thousand miles of rivers and mountains. This is the capital of the Chu State that makes it proud. Before the rise of the Han State, the territory of the Chu State was almost the sum of the other six countries. But now, these five thousand miles of rivers and mountains will be changed to six thousand miles of rivers and mountains. Such achievements, Based on the eight hundred years of Chu's history, when it comes to expanding territory, King Huai of Chu consciously did not lose to those talented and strategic monarchs.

This is land stolen from Qiang Qin. In the past hundred years, only Qin has robbed others. How could other countries get any benefits from strengthening Qin? But I did it myself.

It is true that my talents are mediocre, but I have one advantage: I know how to employ people, I dare to employ them, and I do not doubt them! King Huai of Chu was complacent, Huang Xie, and Qi Zhong was both civil and military. It is precisely because of their hard work that the Chu State is in its current situation. Although the two men controlled the government and the people of Chu only knew the chief lieutenant and not the king, a thousand years later. Who doesn’t know the achievements of this great king?

Han and Qin now hate each other. Now that Qin is in civil strife, I believe Han will not miss this opportunity. Chu takes the southern part of Qin. Now we are satisfied and waiting for the outcome of the conflict between Qin and Han, or the Chu army can get some other benefits from the conflict between these two powers.

As for the Han Dynasty. Well, I have to say that the national power of Han may not be as good as that of Chu, but its military strength is far superior.

Now it is time to consider getting along with the Han State. The chief assistant and the Taiwei want to have a good relationship with the Han State and do everything possible to delay the situation where the two countries may be in conflict. The Chu State needs Be stronger.

King Chu Huai stretched himself. State affairs are really troublesome. These matters should be left to Huang Shoufu and Qu Taiwei to consider. They are still young and can at least work for themselves for ten to twenty years. When it comes to work, you'd better stop worrying about it.

"Come here, prepare some wine and put it in the chrysanthemum hall. I'm going to enjoy the flowers and drink." King Huai of Chu happily ordered his servants.

While King Huai of Chu was happily drinking and having fun, the two ministers he used, one civil and one military, were still gathered in the official hall. The military report sent back from the south was naturally the first focus of their attention.

"Sanchuan County has been captured." Qu Zhong happily picked up a military report and walked to Huang Xie, "Chief Assistant, Qu Wan has captured Sanchuan County. Qin General Tan Wei only led a few hundred people. Escape from the city and fight your way out of the siege. The war in the south is basically over."

"It's not over yet!" Huang Xie smiled: "The Xuanyi guards of Qin State have chased Zhou Yu to the south. I'm afraid there is still a battle to be fought. By the way, what happened to Zhou Yu?"

"I'll have to ask General Zhao about this." Qu Zhong smiled and looked back at the leader of Chu State's secret force Ghost Shadow on the other side. When the war was about to start, Huang Xie proposed to set up a joint office in order to speed up work efficiency. These big bosses gathered together to work so that the things that should be handled could be completed as soon as possible to avoid delays. This seems to be It was a small proposal, but it allowed the Chu State bureaucracy to improve its efficiency.

"This is Lu Chao's method. Poor Zhou Yu was completely used by Lu Chao." Zhao Shucheng smiled, opened a ghost report, and suddenly let out a sigh: "Damn it, these bastards, actually Regardless of the severity, such information is not picked out. "

"What's the matter?" Qu Zhong asked. The information Zhao Shucheng was talking about now only related to one thing, and that was Qin's southern war.

"Two adults, it was sent by Guiying's spies in the south. Zhou Yu was forced to escape by Lu Chao. After he was also lost in Sanchuan County, he sent a message to General Qu Wan through Guiying's spies to defect to Chu. The secret message from the country, the ghost sent the secret message to General Qu and sent a copy to Yingdu," Zhao Shucheng said.

"Zhou Yu wants to surrender to us?" Qu Zhong asked in disbelief, snatching the information from Zhao Shucheng's hands and browsing it hastily, "Zhou Yu's subordinates are all the southern frontier troops of the Qin Army, and they are the same as our great Chu." Hostile, even if Zhou Yu was squeezed out by Lu Chao, those Qin soldiers were willing to follow him to surrender to Chu? "

"It's not impossible." After Huang Xie was surprised, he was overjoyed: "Qu Taiwei, don't forget that the former leader of the southern frontier army was Meng Tian, ​​and Meng Tian's mysterious death has made the south The border army generals were resentful, and Ying Ying had dismantled 200,000 southern frontier troops. Where are many of the original southern army generals now? In addition, there is a great possibility for these people to usurp power now. Because old and new hatreds broke out together, I was unwilling to be driven by Lu Chao anymore. "

"Although your words are reasonable, this matter is not trivial. Shu Cheng, you marked the location of Zhou Yu's troops and Xuanyi Guards on the map as well as the current location of the main force of our army. We still have to be careful about this. The matter needs to be verified again. If Zhou Yu really surrenders to our army, we can use this east wind to deal with the Xuanyi Guard and solve the problem in the south in one fell swoop." Qu Zhong took a deep breath.

"It's really excellent." Huang Xie clapped his hands and said happily: "If Zhou Yu's troops surrender to our country and then deal with the Xuanyi Guards, a very elite unit of the Qin State, the vitality of the Qin State will be seriously damaged, and we will fight in the next step. Qin will have an absolute advantage in negotiations."

"Lord Chief Assistant, we have won a great victory, why don't we take the opportunity to deal with the Qin State seriously? It is only right to kill him while he is sick and beat him to the point of collapse." Zhao Shucheng was flipping through the relevant information about Zhou Yu's troops and the Information from the Xuanyi Guards Division, he said with a smile.

"That's not possible." Huang Xie laughed, "We are already satisfied with the southern part of Qin, but we cannot really defeat Qin. If we continue to advance after taking the southern part, the Han people will inevitably start to attack Qin. If the Qin State is really destroyed, the next step will be a confrontation between Chu and Han. What good does this do to us? The Qin State still needs to be kept. It is better for us to have such a guy on the side to share our pressure. Develop calmly.”

"Now the Han people have captured Qin's Yingchuan and Wulong and are attacking Tai'an. Although Tan Feng has lost Yingchuan, he still has tens of thousands of soldiers in Tai'an. They are strong and can support them for a period of time. Wait. Our side is over. If the negotiations with Qin go smoothly, Qu Wan's 200,000 troops can still help Qin regain Yingchuan. Well, Wulong will form an alliance again and teach the arrogant Han people a lesson. It's the best." Qu Zhong chuckled.

"We must let the people of Qin understand that we only want to take the southern land of Qin, but we are not interested in destroying Qin. The Han people are different. Gao Yuan wants to dominate the world and destroy Qin and Chu, and Lu Chao is not Idiot, of course you know this truth. As long as Lu Chao is willing to pay the price to form an alliance with us, even if he deposes the King of Qin and becomes independent, we Chu people will support him." Huang Xie also laughed, "If everything goes according to our script, I will. Gao Yuan's face must have been wonderful if hundreds of thousands of troops were able to beat back the Han army's outstretched claws. "

All three of them laughed.

"Report, urgent military intelligence report from 800 miles away!" The shouts from outside interrupted the laughter of the three people.

"It seems that there is another good news coming from Qu Wan." Zhao Shucheng smiled at the two big guys, one civil and one military.

"That's right!" Huang Xie also said with a smile: "During this period, reading the good news has made me a little numb."

"Your Excellency, Chief Lieutenant, Lord Taiwei, and General Zhao, please report urgently from 800 miles away from the city." The man from outside rushed in in a state of embarrassment, knelt down on the ground with a bang, and held up a bamboo tube with a secret message in his hands: " There is an urgent report from Jiaocheng. Qin general Tan Feng suddenly led tens of thousands of troops to march from Tai'an ten days ago to attack Jiaocheng. Our army was caught off guard. There were Qin people in the city as internal response. Jiaocheng has been occupied by the Qin army. Jiaocheng ordered Jiaocheng alone. You have to get rid of it, now Jiaocheng has fallen into enemy hands."

The laughter in the hall stopped suddenly, and smiles froze on the faces of the three people.

"What did you say? Tan Feng marched from Tai'an and occupied our Jiaocheng city?" Qu Zhong grabbed the bamboo tube, used both hands to crush the bamboo tube with a snap, and took out the letter inside.

"Yes, Lord Taiwei, Qu Zhong led tens of thousands of troops and countless young men, and has already occupied Jiaocheng." (To be continued.)
