Don't look at their lofty words just now, clamoring to fight this and destroy that!
But everyone knew in their hearts that defeating Chu, conquering Qi, and conquering Vietnam all depended on Wu Zixu and Sun Wu.
What's more, what they say does make sense!
Although the nearby vassal states were miserably bullied by Wu, they still had their own grievances and grievances, and they would never pee in the same pot on weekdays.
But if there is a court leader, it will be different.
The imperial court has great righteousness and status. As long as they issue an edict to attack Wu, the surrounding princes will inevitably swarm in like wild dogs that have smelled shit.
Although this metaphor is not very good, it is very vivid.
The land of Wu is prosperous and rich, and there are many people who covet it.
With the imperial edict, anyone who has no hatred can come and take a bite, let alone Chu, Yue, who have a deep hatred against them, they really want to swallow them in one bite.
Sun Wu's words carried more weight than Wu Zixu's. Fu Chai on the throne also frowned, with a flash of hesitation on his face.
He is angry, but not stupid at all.
Because of the existence of the Wu Kingdom, he is the king of Wu who is above all others. If the Wu Kingdom collapses, he, the King of Wu, will be nothing.
Reason told Fu Cha that since Sun Wu and Wu Zixu had said so, it would be best to stop fighting and let Yue go.
But there was always a suppressed anger in his heart that prevented him from doing so.
He was stabbed and robbed of a woman, and now he still has to be submissive and submissive to the little emperor who robbed him!
His husband has never suffered such a big loss in his life!
Sensing Fu Cha's hidden anger, Bo Pu's heart moved, he stood up and said to Wu Zixu and Sun Wu with a smile:
"Haha, I don't know what General Sun and Doctor Wu are talking about."
"When Qi and Chu became more and more powerful, they were not our opponents. Now that their countries have been conquered by us and their people have become our slaves, do we need to worry about those people?"
The ministers in the court turned their attention to Bo Pu again, feeling that what Dazai said seemed to make sense.
Bo Po smiled and said: "After the war between the two countries, I only heard that the loser was afraid of the winner, but I never heard that the winner still needs to be afraid of the loser?"
"The three countries have surrendered long ago and do not dare to resist the power of Wu. The two adults are really too worried."
Sun Wu frowned, as if he realized something, and said nothing.
But Wu Zixu on the side couldn't help it: "The three kingdoms are scattered and naturally they will be defeated by us. But if the three kingdoms work together and surround them from three directions, they should not be underestimated!"
Bo Po chuckled and shook his head: "That was when they were strong. Now that they have been defeated by us, what do they need to worry about?"
"I, Da Wu, are afraid of three ferocious wolves, but I can't be afraid of three homeless wild dogs with broken legs and teeth, right?"
Bo Po didn't realize it, but they should be afraid of dogs the most, because wolves don't like to eat shit...
But in any case, these words relieved Fu Chai's worries.
He slapped the chair decisively, and just as he was about to make a decision, he was interrupted by Wu Zixu's words below.
Wu Zixu's voice was loud and loud: "This is wrong. Even if there are no these three kingdoms, what about the other nearby vassal states? What if the imperial court directly sends troops?"
Fu Chai choked back his words, his face turned blue and white, but Bo Po below spoke with a smile again.
"Doctor Wu, please be patient."
"The situation described by the doctor seems dangerous, but there is no way around it."
He stretched out a finger and said slowly: "My country, Wu, faces the sea to the east, is bordered by the State of Yue to the south, the State of Chu to the west, and the State of Chen and Qi to the north!"
"Three of the four kingdoms were defeated by Wu Bingfeng. King Chen even sent Young Master Liu to Wu as a hostage!"
"These four countries are the barriers to our country Wu. If we don't break the four countries, who can attack Wu?"
"They will definitely lend it to other countries!" Wu Zixu was so worried. Could it be that you can't even see such a simple truth?
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Unexpectedly, Bo Pu couldn't help but said as if he had heard some big joke: "There is no need to say more about Chen Guo. The three kingdoms of Qi, Chu and Yue are about to be overthrown. How dare they allow the tiger and wolf troops from other countries to enter?"
"If someone enters their country, how can they waste all their efforts to attack our powerful Wu State from afar? Is it just to obtain an enclave that is not bordering the country?"
"They will definitely take the weak Qi Chuyue directly? They can get a large piece of land near the border without any effort. No one will give up what is easy for what is far!"
After listening to Dazai-sama's wonderful speech, many ministers couldn't help but praise him loudly.
However, it is difficult for them to realize that there is something called faith in this world.
This thing may seem inconspicuous, it cannot be eaten as food, and it cannot kill enemies on the battlefield, but it is the most precious thing of a country.
It can't be replaced by thousands of troops.
When other countries come to you for help, it is human nature for you not to agree. After all, no one is willing to sacrifice for others for no reason.
Even if you don't agree and turn your hand to destroy the country that comes to you for help, there won't be a big problem. At most, you will be talked about and take advantage of, in this treacherous world.
It makes sense even in troubled times.
But if you make a promise on the face of it, and then turn around and kill others and invade their territory when your troops enter their country, this is a breach of trust.
If this is the case, not only will the people at home be humiliated and disgusted, but even the generals and soldiers who are going abroad will be murmuring in their hearts.
How is a man different from an animal if he has no faith?
If there were more inconsistencies, the results would be even worse.
Without faith, the people will surely fall into chaos; without faith, the army will surely turn against their master...
We have lost the morale of the people and the military internally, let alone externally.
Few countries are willing to deal too much with such a dishonest country.
If things go on like this, it is not surprising that the country will not perish.
Many ministers do not understand this truth, and some people understand it vaguely, but they cannot penetrate the last layer of window paper and cannot fully understand it.
And it is even more impossible for someone like Fu Cha, who is willing to kill his father and hate the sky for the sake of women, to think about this.
So he was also moved by Bo Pu's fallacy.
Wu Zixu below was so angry that he was about to vomit blood. He couldn't help but said angrily: "Have all the ministers forgotten? The capital of Ying was defeated, and the Chu minister Shen Baoxu knelt down and cried to the Qin court! If it is true as the Dazai said, how could the Chu State allow it?
He went to Qin to ask for help?!"
But Bo Pu laughed loudly: "Shen Baoxu is just a rebellious minister. At this time, Chu State is in crisis. It is normal for him to secretly collude with Qin State in order to seek glory from the seller."
"Furthermore, after this incident, I believe the king and the ministers can also see clearly that King Qin Yingzheng did not even pay attention to him. This has confirmed that the Qin State will definitely not send troops!"
