Chapter 59 The sword points to the four directions
"What should I do?"
Tian Ruoju cupped his hands and spoke solemnly.
It's a matter of life and death for the country, how can we say anything about it?
"The general coming out to lead the troops is a blessing to our great Qi!"
Yan Ying also bowed heavily: "Although Jiang State is expanding rapidly, it has also exposed its greatest weakness. It is located among other countries. As long as it is surrounded on all sides, it will be defeated!"
There are also disadvantages to having a vast territory. For example, the Chu State was driven in by the mere leader of Wu State because its defense line was too long and troops had to be stationed everywhere.
The most advantageous country in this regard is the Qin State. The advantage of Hangu Pass is that one man can guard the pass and no one can open it.
Jin and Qi also had the advantage of geographical advantages, especially the Jin State. With the help of the Earth Spirit Pearl, they changed the landform and defeated the enemy every time they took advantage of the geographical advantages, thus establishing the advantage of being the most powerful country in the world.
In comparison, Jiang State is surrounded by Chu in the south, Qin in the west, Jin in the northwest, Qi in the northeast, Dongyi tribes in the east, and Wu in the southeast. It can be said that it is surrounded by everyone.
If several countries attack together, they will inevitably be trapped in the dilemma of being attacked from both sides and it will be difficult to resist!
Of course, now that all the countries have too much time to take care of themselves, why would they besiege Jiang State for no reason?
However, Tian Ranju was very convinced of Yan Ying's resourcefulness.
Killing three soldiers with two peaches and selling horse meat by hanging a cow's head are all extremely clever ways of dealing with this.
"The plan is coming?"
He was looking forward to seeing what Yan Ying could do against Jiang Guo!
Yan Ying stroked his beard and said, "Rangju, do you remember how Zheng Zhuang planned to get rid of his mother and brother?"
Tian Ruoju looked thoughtful.
Duke Zhuang of Zheng was Wei in all directions and dominated the princes. He was the first of the three little tyrants in the Spring and Autumn Period.
The Three Little Hegemons are figures from the early Spring and Autumn Period. Although their achievements are not as good as those of the Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period, they should not be underestimated.
Duke Zhuang of Zheng had something that was repeatedly discussed by future generations, and that was how to get rid of his younger brother.
He had a particularly partial queen mother who loved his younger brother extremely and wanted to make him king.
If it were any other king, he would have been wary of it, but Duke Zhuang of Zheng did the opposite. He left everything to his younger brother, letting him do whatever he wanted, relying on his favor, and being unscrupulous. When he rebelled, his crime was clearly corrected, and the countrymen did not help him.
Kill it.
This is the most classic flattery.
Tian Ranju understood, looked at each other and said in unison with Yan Ying: "If Jiang is the overlord, the world will definitely punish him!"
This pair of top civil and military figures quickly made a plan and made up their minds. Unexpectedly, at this moment, there was a sudden noise outside.
"What's the matter?"
Yan Ying's face darkened, and he felt uneasy.
After a while, a burly guest strode in, it was Zhan Zhi.
At this time, he no longer had the majesty of the big thief in the past, and there was a look of fear on his eyebrows: "Sir, there is an urgent military situation. Enemy troops entered the border and broke into three cities in a row. It has been confirmed that it is Jiang!"
"Jiang Guo is calling!"
…
…
Jiang Guo.
Yongle County.
If you look down at the earth from the sky, this is the absolute center of the world.
There was nothing special about it originally, it was not rich in spiritual energy, and compared with the "Central Plains" occupied by the Jin Kingdom, it was very barren.
But Jiang State built a lot of construction here.
Hundreds of thousands of laborers are working in full swing.
It took five years for the outline of a magnificent city to finally be erected.
The city wall is majestic, towering into the clouds, the streets are wide, and the momentum is magnificent. Different from the capitals of other countries, this city does not have a large and deep moat dug around it. Instead, it is densely covered with divine patterns, connected to the four directions, faintly forming a Milky Way, surrounding
around.
"The seismic formation draws the power of mountains and rivers, and is inseparable from the earth. The power of the Divine Protector Formation finally surpasses that of Jin and Qi!"
Lu Miaozi, Shan Meixian, Tian Yan and even the disciples from the farm family surrounded the city, their eyes showing joy.
Jiang's current territory is not as large as that of Jin, Qi, and Chu, but the design of the divine array is extremely sophisticated. During the laying process, countless talents made suggestions and improved the details.
Until today, it has finally overtaken the great powers!
Everyone's hearts were filled with an unparalleled sense of accomplishment. A bright light fell on the plaque, and three simple and powerful characters were written on it.
Human King City!
This is the capital of King Jiang!
Everyone bowed their heads, the country's fortunes rose, and for a moment it was felt in all directions.
"The fight for hegemony begins!"
Above the main hall of the royal city, Gu Cheng is holding a golden sword.
This sword was forged by his own hands and is very similar to the Human Emperor Sword.
Not to repeat, this sword is the sub-sword of the Human Emperor Sword, corresponding to the power of the emperor in the small world.
This Xianwu Spring and Autumn Period, from scratch to something, from weak to strong, was a strange feeling that no man had ever given him.
One is inheritance, the other is development!
But when the holy sword is forged and the royal capital falls, this is the real foundation.
Jiang Guo entered the third and final stage.
The sword points in all directions! Fight for hegemony!
Yan Ying was undoubtedly a person who had a very thorough understanding of Jiang State's development plans, but Yan Zi did not expect that Gu Cheng's next step was no longer just to annex Chu State.
In this world, there are many talented people, who are all trying their best to strengthen themselves and weaken their enemies. The Jiang State has become a rich country, a strong people, a strong army and a strong horse. It has become a strong enemy in the eyes of Jin and Qi. It is undoubtedly impossible to develop silently.
In this case, instead of passively accepting attacks, it is better to take the initiative!
Wang Jian, He Ruobi, Shi Wansui, and Bi Zaiyu led an army of 200,000 and a thousand green boats to attack Qi.
Li Mu, Li Jing, Yang Su, and Han Qinhu led an army of 200,000 men and thousands of chariots to attack the Jin Kingdom.
The world is looking at you!
Even Qi Huan, Jin Wen, Chu Zhuang, Qin Mu, when they were seeking hegemony, they did not have the guts to go to war with the other two great powers at the same time!
Jiang State invaded dozens of small countries, and then it became so arrogant that it began to destroy itself?
However, while all the countries were scorning the situation, the war situation among the three countries was showing a one-sided trend.
Taking advantage of the internal strife in Jin, Qi State was at war with Dongyi, but due to lack of coordination, the generals unleashed a wild attack, like a horse in the sky, making strange moves and attacking the city one after another to defeat the enemy.
In just half a month, they each conquered more than 20 cities, occupied a corner of Qi and Jin, laid out seismic formations, and continued the battle with a steady stream of supplies.
Separate one side and keep encroaching!
This tactic was very similar to Sun Wu's tactics when he attacked Chu. However, Wu State did not have the support of the divine formation, and its military strength was also far inferior to that of Jiang State at that time. The efficiency was hugely different.
However, the Jiang State continued to expand its advantages, and its momentum on the frontal battlefield was like a rainbow. Yan Ying and Liu Qing were shocked to discover that it did not have to wait until it invaded the Chu State, and it had become a veritable great power.
The world is shocked!
…
…
Eight divine red horses pulled the carriage and flew out of the clouds, pressing down the cloud light ten miles in front of the city gate.
A doctor stepped out of his carriage and looked up at the most majestic city in the world, his eyes dazed.
I still remember that more than ten years ago, he went to the dilapidated capital of Jiang State, went straight to the palace, and purchased embroidery. The queen was beaming with joy when she left.
But now...
He shook his head slightly, put aside his unwillingness and absurd thoughts, straightened his clothes carefully, walked to the front of the capital, and reported to the guard:
"Master Zhan Suo of the State of Lu would like to see His Highness the Crown Prince of your country!"
