At this time, for Zhao Kuangyin, it was of course a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Not only could he get rid of the troublemaker Yuan Shu, but he also had the opportunity to win a large amount of territory.
Cao Cao, Chi You, and Zhu Yuanzhang all suffered heavy losses at the hands of the Jin army. This is the time to recuperate. But if they want to make up for their losses, there is another way, and it is faster and more convenient.
The only way is to make up for your own losses by sucking the blood of others.
And Yuan Shu is the best target among them. At the same time, if they want to join forces to hinder the development of the Jin army, it is imperative to deal with Yuan Shu, a guy who likes to hold back.
Therefore, in Yi Yin's calculation, it is very promising to unite these princes to jointly defeat Yuan Shu, and there is a great chance of success. Yi Yin is sufficiently sure of this.
Moreover, it is precisely because Cao Cao, Chi You, and Zhu Yuanzhang had just suffered a big loss at the hands of the Jin army, and each of them suffered a lot of losses. At this time, by joining forces with them, Zhao Kuangyin had the opportunity to win the biggest piece of cake.
Otherwise, if everyone's strength is in good condition, even if the alliance wins Yuan Shu, Zhao Kuangyin's gains will be limited.
As for the condition that Zhang Yi put forward during his mission to request the Jin army to send troops, Yi Yin also had his own ideas.
Originally, the Jin army had no intention of involving Li Xiang, but now that Zhang Yi came to represent the Jin army and wanted to form an alliance with them, Yi Yin simply took another step!
As the number one prince in the world, the deterrence of the Jin army is self-evident, and it can only be won in one battle. Only the Jin army agreed to this condition, no matter whether it would actually send troops in the end, as long as this news
Once it is released, Yi Yin's goal will be achieved.
Just by releasing the news that the Jin army might send troops, it would be impossible for Yuan Shu not to take precautions and seize part of Yuan Shu's troops, so that Zhao Kuangyin's side could do better.
Of course, if the Jin army competed with Zhao Kuangyin for Yuan Shu's territory at this time, it would be difficult for Zhao Kuangyin to win over the Jin army, but at this time, Yi Yin would only be happier.
Why did this alliance of princes fail again and again? It was because those checkpoints were too troublesome! But if the Jin army coveted Yuan Shu's territory, there would be no checkpoints like Hulao Pass here.
In the future, if they want to unite to deal with the Jin army, there is no need to hold on to Hulao and they can lead the Jin army to Yuzhou to fight.
Compared with this, even if Zhao Kuangyin gets a little less territory, what does it matter? Although he suffered a little loss today, he might be able to secure a future!
On Zhu Yuanzhang's side, under Yao Guangxiao's suggestion, Zhu Yuanzhang readily agreed to this alliance.
Zhu Yuanzhang has always regarded the south of the Yangtze River as something within his grasp, and it is what he must capture next. But when the news came that Liu Che was sending troops to Jiaozhou, Zhu Yuanzhang was inevitably a little anxious!
The princes in the world have to admit that if we talk about the comprehensive strength of each prince, among all the princes in the world, except for Li Xiang, Liu Che belongs to him.
That is because Li Xiang's side is too unique. Otherwise, Liu Che could call himself the second prince in the world. When the time comes, all the princes will unite to jointly restrict one more target.
Liu Che has always been located in the mountains of Yizhou. Zhu Yuanzhang's understanding of him is really limited, but the fact that this person can build such a family business is enough to show that he is extraordinary.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang had limited understanding of Liu Che, the problem was that he knew Xiang Yu!
Xiang Yu came to fight against Liu Che. To be honest, Zhu Yuanzhang had to worry about Liu Che!
Therefore, what he wanted to do was to solve the hidden danger of Shanyue as soon as possible and prepare to compete with Liu Che. It is precisely because of this that Zhu Yuanzhang really became ruthless this time, using various means to defeat Zhu Yuanzhang who was already in the position.
The mountain warriors in the shadows were suffering terribly.
However, when Zhao Kuangyin sent Zhao Pu to contact Zhu Yuanzhang, and when it came to jointly dealing with Yuan Shu, Yao Guangxiao had other ideas at this time.
If Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Che come together to seize Xiang Yu's territory, how long can Xiang Yu hold on alone! But in this process, how could Zhu Yuanzhang, who had just experienced a major defeat, be able to seize more than Liu Che!
Therefore, Yao Guangxiao instead suggested that Zhu Yuanzhang should not worry about the affairs between Xiang Yu and Liu Che. There were still three pounds of nails in the broken ship. Even if Xiang Yu really couldn't defeat Liu Che, Liu Che would definitely spend a lot of time trying to annex Xiang Yu.
Moreover, if Zhu Yuanzhang joins forces with the Jin army to conquer the Japanese, and if he joins forces with Zhao Kuangyin to attack Yuan Shu, on the one hand, they can recover their losses from the previous battle as soon as possible, and on the other hand, they can also allow Xiang Yu to attack them
This side took it lightly and concentrated as much strength as possible to resist Liu Che.
By the time Zhu Yuanzhang had divided the cake between Yuan Shu and Yuan Shu, Xiang Yu should have focused his main energy on dealing with Liu Che and took their side lightly.
And at this time, if Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly attacks Xiang Yu at this time, it will be equivalent to directly picking the peach of Liu Che. It can be said that he kills several birds with one stone.
Of course, they had just experienced a major defeat, and if they were to defeat the Japanese and Zhao Kuangyin, they would be somewhat powerless now.
However, the main force against the Japanese was the Jin army, and the main force against Yuan Shu was also Zhao Kuangyin.
For the Japanese side, in Yi Yin's mind, it is enough to dispatch more than 10,000 and no more than 20,000 manpower. If it is confirmed that there are indeed a large number of gold and silver mines in Japan, then by
They will just deploy more troops when the time comes.
Anyway, Yangzhou has a coastal area and a large number of warships, so what they do is relatively easy!
As for the side that cooperates to deal with Yuan Shu, Yao Guangxiao also knows very well that the huge piece of cake must belong to Zhao Kuangyin, and Zhu Yuanzhang only needs to grab the piece he should eat. After all, the most important thing for Zhu Yuanzhang is still south of the Yangtze River
territory.
It has to be said that Yi Yin and Yao Guangxiao are worthy of being the masterminds of a generation. Each has its own plans and calculations. Moreover, if they really continue to follow their path, then Zhao Kuangyin and Zhu Yuanzhang will
