Chapter 333: Another turbulent winter

Chapter 333 Another winter of disturbances

Mrs. Zhong and Ms. Hu just wanted to come and help, so they could drink some soup while helping. When they were rejected, they quickly ran away.

It didn't matter whether Wei and Han had any special ideas. Zhiyao refused so clearly. They had no chance to play language arts at all.

There was one thing that Wei Ju never mentioned to Zhi Yao from the beginning, that there was a rumor that the Wei family was involved in the assassination of the Zhi family and his son. I don’t know whether he was sure that the Zhi family would not believe it, or he was upright, but he never mentioned it even once.

Pass.

Wei Ju made the right choice. He found Zhi Yao and mentioned that it was not them who did it, and it was impossible to explain it in words. Once it was done by them, the more they talked about it, the easier it would be exposed.

In fact, it is not that important whether the Wei family is involved or not. What is important is that things have already happened and can be used by the Zhi family to cause trouble at any time. The Wei family is getting weaker and weaker than the Zhi family every day. If the Zhi family wants to do something to the Wei family, the Wei family can only

Passively endure.

At present, the Wei family has grasped the key. No matter how much trouble there is, in short, they must seize the time and work hard. As long as they have stronger strength, they will be more confident in facing any threats.

This is what Wei and Zhi learned. No matter how chaotic it is internally, using the appropriate strength to develop externally and find profits will also strengthen the foundation.

When envoys from various countries learned that Wei Ju, Han Geng, Zhong Quan and Hu Jie had left "Tan", most of them were unable to react for a while.

Qi Junren's Zi Palace is still in "Tan". No one can give an exact time when it will be transported back to "Linzi" for the funeral.

The corpse had been left there for so long and had been frozen by the ice for so long that it had undoubtedly turned into a piece of frozen meat. Because it was a process of freezing and thawing, the corpse would decay at a faster rate.

Kan Zhi has been very busy recently, shuttling among the envoys of various countries like a butterfly. Today he is looking for the Chu envoy Ziqi, tomorrow he is looking for the Wu envoy Bo Xi, and the day after tomorrow he is looking for the Lu envoy Ji Sunfei. Anyway, he is very busy.

It looks like your feet are not touching the ground.

Some famous Qi princes were not idle either, just busying around regardless of whether it was useful or not.

In that atmosphere, a Qi duke named Gongsun Qing seemed a bit special.

He was drunk all day long, and then he composed and sang songs. He sang some ominous poems from the Book of Songs. After singing, he shouted loudly that Qi would be destroyed, either by the Tian family, or by someone like Wei Guo.

He was generally wiped out by Zhishi.

Zhishi had no idea of ​​doing anything to Gongsun Qing. Instead, he sent people to protect Gongsun Qing who became crazy, so that Gongsun Qing would not die unexpectedly and someone would seize this incident and embarrass Zhishi.

Today, Gongsun Qing looked drunk again, and even ran around naked.

It is said to be running naked, but in fact there is no need to mosaic. There is a cloth wrapped around the important parts. Because the tail of the cloth is not tied, it looks like running with a tail behind it. (Refer to the footbath chicken sumo wrestler.

style)

"Qi is dead, dead!"

"Perish because of the foolishness of the king and his ministers, and perish by bringing about one's own destruction!"

"Cang Si, Cang Si, are you here again today? Living in Yan Cao Lai, carrying the sea and the salt water?"

"It's beautiful! It's so big! It's so windy! He who represents the East China Sea is so great! The country is immeasurable!"

"Die, die today!"

Because of the current special nature of "Tan", there are not many people in the city. They are either soldiers of the Zhi family, followers or warriors accompanying envoys from various countries, and of course the envoys from various countries themselves.

Ji Sunfei looked at Gongsun Qing running towards him like crazy. He didn't know whether he sympathized or felt sorry for him. He sighed and said, "Even if Qi still exists, it will no longer be a great country."

The Zhi family of the Jin State made it clear that they would not return the "Tan" land. From a strategic point of view, it was a sharp knife thrust into "Linzi", which would make the monarchs and ministers of the Qi State live in fear all the time.

Not to mention the possibility of losing Qi State's dying land at any time because of the occupation of "Tan" land.

Once the Qi State loses the upper reaches of the Jishui River, it will not only lose the economic losses caused by the loss of the textile concentration area, but also mean that the Qi State will lose a large number of backbone forces.

Bo Xi said without any politeness: "When will the State of Lu send troops to Wushan?"

Ji Sunfei was immediately embarrassed.

One second, as an irrelevant person, lamenting that a powerful country is about to perish or weaken, and the next second, when it comes to rushing to grab food, anyone who wants to save face will feel embarrassed.

Now the State of Lu is an ally of the State of Wu. If it weren't for this, Ji Sunfei would really not like to deal with this guy Bo Xi.

How can I put it this way? Bo Xi is actually not that annoying. On the contrary, as long as you give enough, please do something, and he is very particular about credibility.

The problem is that Boy is too easy to be erratic and always likes to expose the dark side of some people's hearts, which will make others embarrassed and extremely speechless.

However, even though Ji Sunfei was in power in the Lu State, he still did not dare to show off his face.

"As soon as the Wu army moves north, I can send troops immediately," Ji Sunfei said.

What Qi Junren did before his death actually disrupted the established development steps of many countries.

For example, after the Wu Kingdom suffered a wave of losses, they should follow the established development steps to build canals and cities along the way while licking their wounds, and then gather the strength of the whole country to march north again, overthrowing the Jin Kingdom in one fell swoop, or wiping themselves out.

Of course, Fu Chai and other Wu talents would not think that a failure, even a very disastrous failure, would destroy the country of Wu. What is needed is the determination to break the boat.

Bo'er asked with a smile: "Do you know why your sleeves are so cool this time?"

Ji Sunfei was stunned.

It seems, it seems, maybe..., no, it should be said with certainty that Boyu really did not accept the gift from Lu.

Originally, Ji Sunfei thought that Bo Xi was too young, so he sent people back to prepare generous gifts again. It seemed that there was another hidden agenda?

Boyu looked around and said: "When will my king announce that he will send troops?"

The State of Wu had its own strategy. They repeatedly invaded the State of Qi not to occupy much land. What they wanted was for the State of Qi to surrender, making Qi a vassal of the State of Wu, and then attack the State of Jin together.

There is also a more realistic point. The Wu State suffered heavy losses last time, and it does take some time to recover. They spent a lot of manpower and material resources digging canals and building cities. Even if they could gather an army to go north,

The required baggage cannot be conjured out of thin air.

More importantly, Wu State continued to expand over a period of ten or twenty years. Many places were conquered, and the problem was only conquered. Not only did many newly occupied areas have no output, on the contrary, Wu State continued to conquer them again and again.

investment, should they take some time to rectify it?

The matter of cleaning up internal affairs seemed to go smoothly before, so Fu Chai didn't realize the importance at all. After encountering setbacks and starting to reflect, he can only say that no one who succeeds is lucky. Suddenly Fu Cha realized the importance, and he really realized it.

is being done.

Fucha suddenly realized that except for one fact, continuous expansion may not be a good thing. It is only positive if it can create profits after expansion. However, it is harmful to continue to increase the territory but require investment in all aspects.

Facing Fu Chai's changes, one person was frightened to the core.

That person was Gou Jian. After being frightened, he served Fu Cha with a more humble attitude.

If Fu Chai hadn't still accepted the beauty as soon as it was offered to him, Gou Jian, who felt that he had lost hope, would have gritted his teeth and taken action immediately.

After all, it took three generations of monarchs for the Wu Kingdom to develop from a humble settlement to one that could challenge the hegemon. After its rise, there will definitely be internal problems like this. To put it bluntly, if you always go smoothly, you will ignore your shortcomings. If you encounter a major setback, it will be like a castle in the air.

Towards collapse.

If the State of Wu gives up its expansion and pursues hegemony, and instead deals with internal affairs, and the foundation is solidified, Gou Jian's revenge plan, to tell the truth, will most likely fail.

"Wu Guo has no intention of going north?" Zhiyao looked at Ji Sunfei who came to see him, with a strange smile on his face.

It's like this. After Ji Sunfei separated from Boyu, he chose to visit Zhiyao.

Later, Ji Sunfei did not ask for confirmation and directly told Zhiyao that the Wu State would not go north to form an alliance this time. It seemed like he was asking for credit?

Speaking of which, all countries are very realistic at present and will not sever all relations because of war. Moreover, if there is an opportunity, they can temporarily put aside their differences and cooperate.

The Chu State was wiped out by the Jin State the year before last with 30,000 troops. Ziqi came to "Tan" to talk to Zhiyao about win-win cooperation.

Boyu from Wu State had contacted Zhi Yao before. He didn't talk at all about the losses that Jin State had brought to Wu State in the "Battle of Ailing". They talked about how to deal with Chu State who wanted to show its prominence again. By the way, they also talked freely.

How to deal with Qi State at once.

In short, Wu State does not need to go north this time, but Jin State has the intention of destroying Qi State, and Wu State will not just watch.

The State of Wu and the State of Qi are bordering each other. Once the State of Qi completely collapses, they will actually not do nothing. They will send some troops to seize the nearby cities of Qi State. The advantage will definitely be taken.

Of course Bohu didn't say it so clearly, that's what he meant.

Behind the scenes, Zhiyao arranged for a batch of gifts to be delivered to Boy's stay.

Bo Xi laughed immediately when he saw the gift, thinking that it was refreshing to communicate with smart people.

Some countries that were invited did not send people over, including the Song Dynasty, which actually could not do anything and had no desire to interfere at all.

In the midst of the chaos, the princes of Qi discovered that some people made nice promises, but actually failed to make any promises. They also saw that the Zhi family did not stop relevant military preparations in the winter, and they were very happy to have such a good life.

Zhishi supported it, but the other side began to wonder why Zhishi also did not talk about the actual content of the alliance.

This time Zhi's attack on Qi will be in the name of vilifying the people, and he will definitely need the support of the Qi clan.

"Even if I can kill Qi State in one go, it's better to leave some land to Qi State. Just leave the area close to Wu State for them. Even if they can't hold it, they can use it as a buffer zone in a short time..."

Qi State is quite big, and Zhiyao must consider whether it will be overwhelmed to death.
