The King of Chu remembered the extraordinary skills he showed when Han Yue and Cai Cheng competed with swords. He couldn't help but nodded repeatedly and smiled: "It's such a blessing to be able to get such a reliable guard!"
Roche smiled and said, "At this point, I have a reluctant request."
The King of Chu hurriedly said, "Crown Prince Yue is just speaking out."
Luo Qi bowed and said, "Han Yue has been born and died with me, and has made outstanding achievements to this day, but I have never been able to give her any rewards. I always feel ashamed. Previously, Caier mentioned the Zhanlu Divine Sword, and Xiao Wang was willing to give up three thousand taels of gold. He wanted to ask the King of Chu to give up his love. I wonder what you meant?"
The King of Chu smiled and said, "Zhanlu was originally owned by Yue State, but our Chu State just got it by chance. Now the goods are returned to the original owner. How can I ask for all the silver? What's more, this female guard's swordsmanship is so superb. I think it's a good thing to be able to exert the real power of Zhanlu. If the treasure is obtained by his master, isn't it a good thing?"
Luo Qi quickly bowed and said, "Since that's the case, thank you for giving up the love of the King of Chu."
He was secretly proud of his heart, knowing that if Han Yue could get a magic sword like Zhan Lu, he would definitely increase his critical strike rate and attack speed by at least twenty percentage points as the opponent said.
The King of Chu quickly answered the gift, then turned around and walked towards the sword room first.
Although the King of Chu felt a little distressed when Zhan Lu was about to change his ownership, he still felt that this was a good deal. After these days of contact, he had confirmed that the Prince Yue Wujie was definitely not an ordinary person. Yue Kingdom was likely to develop to an unprecedented level in his hands. Now that giving the other party’s sword is an emotional investment.
Luo Qi followed the footsteps of the King of Chu, while Han Yue whispered: "Why is Your Highness so good to his subordinates?"
Roche smiled and said, "Because I can't treat you badly."
Han Yue did not answer and lowered her head slightly.
Roqi stepped forward and joked: "What's more, if you get the Zhanlu Divine Sword, your combat power will definitely be greatly improved in the future. It will be beneficial or harmful to me. Why don't I do it?"
Han Yue said firmly: "I will swear to protect Your Highness to the death, and I will never let anyone hurt you."
Luo Qi smiled and said, "You should protect yourself first. I don't want to see you hurt. If Zhan Lu is in your hand in the future, you will be injured by an assassin, I will not spare you."
Han Yue naturally understood his concern, and her cheeks could not help but feel a little blushing.
Chu King Palace, main hall.
After cordial conversations, the King of Chu and Luo Qi finally decided to formally establish an alliance between Chu and Yue, and sent troops to aid Wu, striving to establish a deeper friendly relationship with Wu, and at the same time issued a joint statement with Yue, strongly condemning the illegal invasion of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
After condemnation, of course, you have to use a knife.
In fact, the King of Chu was obviously very clear about the benefits of establishing diplomatic relations with the State of Wu. You must know that the State of Wu has the most exquisite forging technology in the world, but lacks copper and tin ore. At the same time, Wu is located in the south of the Yangtze River. The land is fertile and there is no shortage of food but very shortage of war horses. The State of Chu is in a state of ruins and is extremely short of food and technology. However, the land of Chu is vast and most lacking is copper, tin and other ores, as well as excellent war horses.
Therefore, if copper, tin and other ores are exchanged for weapons, armor and blades of Wu, and excellent war horses are exchanged for food from Wu, both sides can benefit and develop successfully.
The benefits of establishing alliances with Vietnam are almost similar.
The most critical problem is that the three of them have a common enemy. Faced with the threat from the Northern Wei Dynasty, they could only hug each other tightly.
Luo Qi bid farewell to the King of Chu and returned to the country, while the King of Chu personally sent it to him for ten miles.
Since Jiang Rou couldn't ride a horse, Roqi hired a carriage and returned with her, while Fan Kuai and other guards followed him on horseback.
Now Han Yue has abandoned the original sword and changed it to the Zhanlu that he just got.
Zhanlu's sword sheath is simple, and the sword body is pitch black. Although it is invincible and sharp, it looks like a dragon sleeping in the abyss, making people unable to see the depth.
Luo Qi lifted the curtain and smiled and said, "Although Han Yue's sword was average, it could be divided into two blades. Now it is not good to replace it with Zhan Lu. But I heard that there are ten famous swords in the world. I will help you search for one of them sooner or later. At that time, the two swords combined will be invincible in the world?"
Han Yue bent down slightly and said respectfully: "I am grateful to you, Your Highness."
The sunset in the sky gradually subsided, and the dusk slowly brought the curtain behind them. Everyone was in a good mood because this mission was full of loads.
But the real trouble has just begun now.
In the territory of Yue, Zhuji.
Roqi stepped out of the carriage and saw Huang Yueying coming to greet him. He couldn't help but smile and said, "There is no problem in China during the period when I am not here, right?"
Huang Yueying sighed: "We are in peace in our country, but there are already troubles in the Wu Kingdom."
Roche was stunned and raised his eyebrows and said, "You mean..."
Huang Yueying sighed slightly: "The capital of Wu State Gushu City has been occupied by the Northern Wei Dynasty, and now there are only sporadic resistance. It seems that within half a month, the soldiers and horses of the Northern Wei Dynasty may be opened to our Yue Kingdom."
Luo Qi frowned and said, "The Wu Kingdom is not weak, why did it destroy the country again so quickly?"
Huang Yueying said: "I heard that Mulan didn't know what she got there and successfully learned about a fatal weakness in Gushu City. So when she attacked the city gate, she took dangerous moves, and finally caused the strong city of Gushu City to fall..."
Roach hurriedly said, "What weakness?"
Huang Yueying told the story, and then Luo Qi finally understood the cause and effect.
Forty years ago, King Helu of Wu was very talented and powerful, and he ruled the small Wu Kingdom into a great country, which was so powerful that it was in all directions. The original capital was saturated and crowded, and it was no longer able to adapt to the needs of national development, so Helu decided to reset the capital.
Helu finally focused his attention on the Gu Shu on the northeast bank of Taihu Lake. He believed that the natural conditions here are very superior, with convenient transportation, fertile land, rich resources and a large population, which is suitable for being the capital of the Wu Kingdom, so he ordered Wu Zixu, an important minister at that time, to build a city in Gusu.
Based on the field investigation, Wu Zixu's research has created Gushu City with an unprecedented city with a double chessboard pattern, allowing Gushu to combine land and water, and water and land parallel. The larger rivers in the city have six horizontal and fourteen vertical channels, with a large number and high distribution density, which is the best in the world and unique.
According to Wu Zixu's statistics, the circumference of this Gushu City is 47 miles long, 210 steps and 2 feet, and the Lumen Gate is eight, and the second one is the Tower, Shuimen Gate is eight. The south is ten miles long, forty-two steps and five feet long, seven miles long, one twelve steps and three feet long, eight miles long, two hundred and twenty-six steps and three feet long, and the east is eleven miles long, seventy-nine steps and one foot long.
In these Eight Land Gate, there is actually a secret passage hidden in the Eight Water Gate. If one of the Water Gate in the northeast corner is digging another foot, a secret grid will appear, and this secret grid can open the water gate and enter.
This was built by Wu Zixu when he built the city, and he specially made it according to Helu's request, in order to beware of the fact that one day, if Gusu is surrounded, the King of Wu could escape from the Shuimen.
