Chapter 215: The Coming of the Era of Great Controversy

The State of Jin, which had not split, was destined to be a mountain above all the princes.

In other words, Jin State did not really weaken for a day. Any prince who wanted to make a difference would never become a legitimate overlord unless they could defeat Jin State continuously.

The Chu State once had a deep understanding of this. They fought a war with Jin for more than a hundred years. Only after defeating Jin can they be respected by the princes of the Central Plains. What's bad is that Jin State can always make a comeback, and Chu State can no longer support it and give up the battle for hegemony.

The Chu State, which gave up the battle for hegemony, was soon beaten by the Wu State.

In some ways, the Chu State was so expensive that it was caught by the Wu State to take advantage of the opportunity.

The state of Chu was large enough and had a lot of people. As a prerequisite, they would not be taken away by a wave of flows, and they would be able to make a comeback with a certain amount of time.

It is more difficult to take Chu away in a wave than imagined. With the current situation of the countries, no single country can do it anyway.

Zhiyao knew that very well and understood how well the Chu State had.

If you want to talk about potential, it is undoubtedly the same no matter how Chu State explores it. The geographical environment is one of them, and then the national character is too romantic.

In terms of potential, as Zhiyao's "experienced person", due to the long-term "answer", he would be more optimistic about Qin State.

There is a saying that if Jin State does not split for a day, Qin State will not have the chance to go east. Since this statement has no historical answer, it can only be regarded as a hypothesis.

There must be a reason for such hypothesis. For example, after the split, Wei State could defeat Qin State for a long time; after Qin State's turn to truly rise, Zhao State alone asked Qin State to explore its potential to win the Battle of Changping.

I'm sorry to say that the South Koreans in the Three Jins really dragged their backs from being from Jin people.

However, the Korean national name has not been dragged down once or twice, making it seem like the monarch being given the Korean national name, which can make the monarch mentally retarded, and the group is more likely to fall into a confusing collective situation, which is a curse.

"Fan Li is the representative of the will of Chu State, and it seems to have been revealed to himself?" Zhiyao sent Fan Li away, recalled the meeting process, and a honey expression appeared on her face.

This is simply a big discovery and can provide a reasonable explanation for many things.

Some of the chats during their meeting were said by Zhiyao on purpose, including the willingness of Jin to make changes to the relationship with Chu.

After the Alliance of War, Jin and Chu did not fail to fight again. In fact, there were still several battles. However, compared with the major battle period, the scale of the war became smaller.

Later, Jin State had its own troubles, and Chu State was beaten by Wu State, and the relationship between the two countries entered a period of friendship, and there was no such thing as alliance.

"Who is Fan Zi visiting when he comes to Jin?" Zhiyao asked about the subject of Po Lan.

As the leader of the Zhi family, Zhishen went to war, and many retainers and core members accompanied him, and his friends trained by Zhiyao since childhood were crowded into the army. The first retainer of Zhi family, Bo Landao, was left to assist Zhiyao in handling various affairs.

Bolan Dao first served Zhihuan, and then served Zhishen. He was old and I wonder if there was an opportunity to serve Zhiyao again.

"Those people who go to other families must have the intention of visiting them," said Bo Landao.

That is, Fan Li's first visit to Jin State was the Zhi family. Seeing that someone had sent people to express his intention to visit, he wanted to set foot on all the families of Jin State, including the Qing family?

"Wu Yongbing is old? Should the King of Yue move his mind and feel that he can take advantage of the opportunity?" Bo Landao's tone was not guessing.

Considering that it is an era where everything is slow, Yue Guo believes that the opportunity to turn the tables is coming, and it is not surprising that it is necessary to prepare for diplomatic relations first.

A large plan takes more than ten years to become the mainstream today, and there are few examples of doing what you want to do. This is because it requires preliminary preparations, and the preparation speed is quite slow.

The revival of Yue is definitely Goujian's ideal. How to implement it? Is it more likely that the latter will be implemented by following Goujian's meaning or Fan Li's strong advocacy?

This conjecture is based on a foundation, that is, under the leadership of Goujian, the State of Yue was beaten to the brink of destruction by Wu. Even if Goujian reflects on it, it was originally a person who was just a person, and it was impossible for him to be completely transformed after a failure.

To put it bluntly, the upper limit of human IQ is there, and no matter how hard you try, it is difficult to break through your own shackles.

The State of Chu suffered enough of being attacked by both sides. Fan Li, who was carrying important tasks, was very smart himself, and there was probably a large number of think tanks behind him. There was no reason to ignore the painful lessons that the State of Chu had suffered.

If Yue State can get help from Chu and bring Jin State back to Jin State, not only will Goujian's revenge plan be stable, but only will Jin State sit idly by and watch Wu State perish, it will undoubtedly make all plans more stable.

Of course, the most important thing is that they realize that their plans may be discovered by Zhishi. If they do not take appropriate actions, many things will not only be left to waste, but also may also be at risk of being suddenly caused.

If it weren't discovered by Zhi's family? Even if they felt that it was necessary to participate in Jin, they wouldn't be so stupid that they contacted them before they started.

After Fan Li visited Zhiyao, he thought that the achievements he had achieved were very gratifying.

Jin State had already noticed the increasingly fierce threat from Wu State. Fan Li was not sure whether the Jin people regretted cultivating such a threat for him, so he wanted to solve it.

Zhu Xia now does not have the words "only eternal interests, no eternal enemies", and few people may have similar enlightenment. Similarly, "only eternal interests, no eternal allies" must be understood by someone.

If anyone knows the best, it must be Zhiyao!

Zhiyao really hopes that Jin and Chu can cooperate with Wu. The reasons are not that complicated. The current "Yuan Rong" of Jin falls on the Zhi family again. The pursuit of restoring hegemony is not only about achievements, but also about the Zhi family's reputation.

If the Zhi family could restore the hegemony of Jin, not only would the Zhi family be better in history books, but the benefits they could get would also be beyond imagination.

With the busyness of all kinds of affairs, Zhiyao ushered in this autumn again.

Zhishen led his army to leave after spring sowing and took two months to arrive at "Taoqiu".

This "Taoqiu" was originally the capital of Cao State, and when Cao State was annexed, it turned into a large town.

In the current era, there are ancestral temples as "du", and there are no ancestral temples as "qi".

That "du" is not only considered by the country. Every family has its own ancestral temple. "du" is also called "du". The meaningful place is to serve the ancestral tablets. Generally, the "du" of a certain family is occupied, which means that the family has no future.

"Yi" means a city, and some "Yi" are much larger than "Du", so they have the name "Dayi".

This time, the State of Song did things in a very inauthentic manner. Not only did it annex the State of Cao, but it also made Cao Jun's lineage a sacrifice.

The Jin army's direct march to "Taoqiu" has great political significance, and here we convened Zheng, Lu, Wei, Xue, and Teng to join forces.

An accident occurred in the middle, that is, the Chu State suddenly sent troops to attack Chen State, and by the way, he wanted to deal with Zheng State, which caused Zheng State to fail to go to "Taoqiu" to participate in the alliance.

No matter what the reason is, it is because Zheng State has breached its trust, which has hit Zhishen's prestige to some extent. If nothing unexpected happens, Jin State will definitely settle the score with Zheng State.

Zheng's failure to make a shadow on the alliance, which directly led to the fact that another Jin army, which was originally a reserve force, had to set out and enter the Wei State's "Pu".

That's right, there is also a city in Wei State called "Pu".

It is normal to have a city and city rename now. In the early days, there were even exaggerated "Wu" cities.

The meaning of "wu" is a military fortress. The construction of a city is to ensure military purpose, and it slowly becomes an ordinary city.

"Song Junluan is not here?" Zhiyao frowned.

Since "Taoqiu" is a bit far from "Xintian", the time interval between the two places still takes about eight days even if the transmission is carried out using the fast-speed horse.

The contemporary king of Song State was named Luan. He advocated continuing to serve Jin State in the early days, but later the civil war between Jin State changed his mind.

One of the main reasons why the Song State dared to destroy Cao State was that Cao's deposed Duke (Cao Junyang) betrayed Jin State earlier and believed that Jin State would not send troops to rescue Cao State. Later, Jin State went north to attack Zhongshan State, which made Song State brave and seized the opportunity to destroy Cao State in one fell swoop.

Zhiyao, who received the news, knew something very well. Even if Song State pretended to send someone to "Taoqiu" to apologize, Jin State could still live up to its face and war might not break out.

If the State of Song knew something and gave some of the interests to the State of Jin, considering that the State of Cao was no longer the younger brother of the State of Jin, perhaps the matter of Song destroying the State of Cao would have gone so far.

What's going on now?

The State of Song did not give Jin any face. He felt that he became very awesome after annexing the State of Cao. Or who stood behind to support or coerced?

"It's impossible not to fight now." Zhiyao thought to herself.

Jin State brought a group of allies to fight with Song State. If you want to say who will take the advantage, it will undoubtedly be Chu State.

The subsequent news came again, proving that Zhiyao's speculation was correct.

The State of Song was really unwilling to start a fight with the State of Jin, but they were unable to form a unified opinion due to various interests within them, and they were threatened and tempted by the State of Wu outside.

After a series of entanglements, the State of Song may feel that Jin has just experienced civil strife and the attack on Zhongshan was also a huge amount of money the previous year, which made Song unwilling to give up the interests he got. He also believed that with Wu behind the back, he could try the weight of Jin?

Zhiyao asked, "Where is Fan Zi?"

Fan Li has been to Jin State for nearly four months and has visited Zhiyao a lot of times. He has reached some relevant intentions. What really needs to be negotiated is that he has not entered the process for the time being.

During these four months, Fan Li fully demonstrated what it means to be good at dancing with a long sleeve, but he was a bit of a prosperous place in "Xintian".

Zhiyao asked Fan Li that there was nothing else, it was just a time to test Fan Li's intelligence.

That's why the Wu Kingdom is very disturbing now. The project to dig the canal was started last year, and this year it launched a large number of troops to go north.
