"Today, one-third of the world has already taken shape."
Because it had been abandoned for too long, the wormwood had not yet been cleared from the stone crevices in the Congtai Hall, but Kuai Che did not dislike it and walked around chatting.
He doesn't need a map, the situation of the world seems to be hidden in his chest!
"The first was divided into the Qin Dynasty, and was called the Northern Qin. Although many counties and counties were lost in the past six months, the foundation of Guanzhong is still there. There are Shuofang, Yunzhong, Yanmen, and Daijun in the north of Guanzhong, and Huma's
Rao. There are Taiyuan, Hedong, Shangdang, Hanoi, Sanchuan, and Nanyang in the east, and Nanyang in the south. The fifteen counties are intact."
"In Yingchuan, Dongjun, Linzi, Changshan, Guangyang, Yuyang, Shanggu, Youbeiping, Liaodong, Liaoxi and other places, although there are many heroes doing things, there are still officials who honor the orders of the second generation and protect them in the county government.
, to fight against it.”
"Therefore, most of the world is still in the hands of Northern Qin. It covers an area of thousands of miles, has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, five thousand chariots, and tens of thousands of horses. It is only somewhat scattered, but it is enough to maintain the empire."
After talking about the so-called "Northern Qin", Kuai Che talked about another major force.
"The second one is Heifu's Northern Expeditionary Army. Although he rebelled against Qin and claimed that he wanted to conquer Jingnan in the north, he still regarded himself as a Qin official. Since he was based in Nanjun, we call it...Southern Qin!"
"There are four Lingnan counties in the south of the Southern Qin Dynasty, where Yue soldiers were recruited as soldiers; there are two Jiangdong counties in the east, and thousands of ships and ships can sail across the river; in the west, Bashu is taken, and millions of grains and crops are obtained; in the middle, there are five counties in Jingzhou, and Heifu has quite a lot of local people.
Support; Thousands of miles away, there are Chen Ping and Cao Shen of Jiaodong who also respond to each other."
"So far, Southern Qin has captured fourteen counties, with an area of more than 5,000 miles, a million households, 200,000 soldiers, thousands of chariots, and tens of thousands of horses. These are the qualifications of an overlord. Coupled with Heifu's reputation,
Among them, Han Xin and others are good at conquering and fighting, and no one in the world can match them!"
Not everyone has the ability to see the overall situation. Listening to Kuai Che's praise of Hei Fu's power, Chen Sheng regretted parting ways with Wu Guang for a moment.
"The third is divided into the six kingdoms of restoration."
At this time, Kuai Che walked up to Chen Yu, cupped his hands and said with a smile:
"Chu Shangzhu's national title started from Huainan, and then moved to the north. As for Pengcheng, he took advantage of the situation, took Huaiyang, attacked Dangjun, and shocked the Central Plains. However, looking at its location, it is only Jiujiang, Donghai, Sishui, Chenjun, and Dangjun.
Although half of the county and Langya were served by the Chu people, the number of dead was only one hundred thousand. Mr. Chen, am I right?"
This was a fact, but Kuai Che was so well-informed that Chen Yu was horrified. He was probably in Chu State, and there might be an insider secretly providing information.
"No one in Shandong was stronger than Chu in founding the country. Except for Chu, Zhao was second in strength. Zhao had captured Julu and Handan. Qi's strength was equal to that of Zhao. Peng Yue captured Xue Commandery and Jibei and wanted to attack Linzi; Han and Wei were more powerful.
Next, Han Fu was established in Xuxian County (Xuchang, Henan). Zhang Liang and Han Cheng led more than a thousand people to conquer Han Dynasty and captured several cities. The Northern Qin Dynasty repeatedly captured them and sent troops to Yingchuan. Wei established its kingdom in Linji.
I guess Zhang Er wants to go north to take Dongjun, right?"
"As for the Yan Kingdom, the princes, princes and grandsons of Yan were all executed by Qin. Although Han Guang raised troops to the valley and Zang Tu rose in Yuyang, Guangyang County resisted stubbornly and was not able to recover Yan..."
This was the first time Chen Yu heard about Yandi.
"In short, the six countries added together can be counted as one point."
Kuai Che gave an overview and made the complicated world situation very clear!
He handed over to Chen Yu again: "Mr. Chen, who do you think is the strongest among these three?"
Needless to say, the Six Kingdoms had just been restored, so they were definitely at the bottom. Chen Yu mused: "Northern Qin should be the strongest. Mr. Kuai just said that Northern Qin still has more than 20 counties with a large population and soldiers, and it is related to the Central Government."
, according to the country with four fortresses, and being surrounded by mountains, there is a danger of one hundred and two..."
It is precisely because of the fear of the power of the Qin court that anti-Qin heroes from all over the country clamored to "kill Qin violently", otherwise they would not be able to sleep well all day.
But Kuai Che had a different view.
"Just looking at the counties, household registrations, and soldiers, it is true that the North outnumbers the South. But let me say that after the Battle of Xiangyang, the Northern Expedition was in decline, and the South had all the advantages!"
"The Northern Qin Dynasty suffered from internal strife, and its generals withered away. Only one king, Ben, had an army of two to three hundred thousand people, struggling to support it in Guandong."
"In order to concentrate his forces against the Southern Qin Dynasty, Wang Ben sat back and watched the eastern counties rebel against the Qin Dynasty and refused to save him. He stormed the Han River in Xiangyang for several months, but to no avail. Instead, the Nan Qin's surprise troops burned down the grain roads and severely damaged his vitality. I heard that,
Shu County has also rebelled against Qin, and Feng Jie is trapped in Ba County, fearing that his entire army will be wiped out."
"My spirit was defeated by the dangerous fortress, and the food was exhausted in the inner palace. The people were extremely resentful and had nothing to rely on. The morale of the Northern Qin Dynasty was lost, so they could only retreat to Nanyang and Hanzhong. However, Wang Ben not only had to resist the Southern Qin offensive, but also
It is really difficult to prevent Chu, Wei, and Han from attacking cities and territories in the Central Plains."
"Even if Wang Ben is the most famous general in the world, he has no way to recover. What's more, the world has been suffering from the Qin Dynasty for a long time. If the second generation changes his course, there is still a possibility of revival. But I heard that he broke his promise one after another, and the land rent was reduced a bit, but
The burden of corvee duties has increased several times, and the people are full of resentment and hope that the second generation will fall."
To put it bluntly, Northern Qin is like a giant that is huge but full of injuries. It has too many enemies to face and too much accumulated resentment. It is faltering and Kuai Che is not optimistic about it.
"The Southern Qin Dynasty was different. It was booming. Hei Fu loved the people and cherished the troops, and fought steadily. While holding on to Jianghan, he sent people to the east of the Yangtze River and entered Bashu. He had defeated Wang Ben's spirit and captured a corner. Next, we only need to
Hold back Wang Ben's main force in Nanyang, and send partial divisions and Bashu troops to fight for Hanzhong. After taking Hanzhong, the Northern Expeditionary Army will march out of Ziwu, Baoxie and other roads, cross the mountains and cross the Wei River, and within a few months, the troops will fight under Xianyang!
This is a serious problem for the monarchs and ministers of the Northern Qin Dynasty."
Zhao Xie looked at Li Zuoche, who was the most proficient in military strategy in the hall. Li Zuoche nodded and agreed with Kuai Che's opinion.
Speaking of Hei Fu, Kuai Che was surprised. He once used a vicious trick to lure Lu Ao into Xianyang, deceiving Qin Shihuang by saying "Hei Fu is the one who destroyed Qin", which caused the monarch and his ministers to turn against each other.
I thought that Heifu was going to die, but unexpectedly, this man was not a loyal minister. He had no intention of accepting death. He faked his death and hid himself. He brazenly raised his troops and occupied the south. Within half a year, he had become the king. This is Kuai Che.
Unexpected.
He continued: "In short, the Northern Qin did more harm than the Southern Qin. If the South is strong, the North will be weak, and if the North is strong, the South will be weak. The situation is not mutually exclusive, just like two tigers fighting against each other."
"At this time, the six countries have two choices. For the slogan of 'Kill the Qin Dynasty,' help the south attack the north, or they can each occupy their own territories and watch the north and the south fight."
Kuai Che said: "If the policy of the Chu State is followed, the princes gather their troops in the Central Plains, attack Sanchuan in the west, and enter Hangu. Wang Ben will definitely send troops north to stop it. The six countries may be defeated. Even if they are not defeated, they may even successfully enter the pass and seize it.
Xianyang burned the temples of the Qin State, and it was difficult for us to gain a long-term foothold. The Northern Expeditionary Army would take the opportunity to enter Guanzhong from Wuguan and Hanzhong, and the Qin people would definitely bring pots of wine to welcome them to help them expel the six countries, and the black man would finally get the benefit of the fishermen.
"
"In this way, Qin unified the south, and Southern Qin has captured Guanzhong. It will use the favorable situation to increase its troops to the six countries."
"At that time, Heifu personally led the people from Guanzhong out of Hangu, and ordered a general to send the Jingzhou army to Wan, Luo, and Jiangdong to cross the river and attack Jiujiang. The oncoming force will be more powerful than Wang Jian, Wang Ben and his son to destroy the six kingdoms.
The six countries that have been restored violently may not survive ten years this time, and will be wiped out by the black man within a year and a half!"
After finishing speaking, Kuai Che spread his hands and asked everyone: "Sudden rise and sudden death, and the destruction of the country. Is this what the king and the generals want to see?"
Zhao Xie shook his head: "Of course not."
Li Zuoche also said: "Mr. Kuai's words are reasonable. For the current plan, the six countries should each seize neighboring lands to consolidate themselves. When all the prefectures and counties in Guandong belong to the six countries, they will then use the Chu State as the leader to join forces with the
Southern Qin resists and allows Northern Qin to protect the center. Only in this way can we achieve a three-point tripartite balance of power!"
Lu Goujian finally answered: "Of course, therefore, Zhao State may not be able to send troops south to attack Hangu with Chu State to the west!"
Zhao Xie said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, this is the attitude of the State of Zhao. I hope you will reply to Major General Xiang of the State of Chu with all the above and remind him not to rush westward and end up taking advantage of Southern Qin!"
How could Chen Yu not understand? Today's meeting in Congtai, Kuai Che's talk was a trap for him. It was to make Zhao State reject Chu State. Zhao people were busy expanding their territory, so they had no time to fight with Chu State.
Go to Hangu Pass and have fun yourself!
He was a little confused. Things were completely different from what he expected. Just when he didn't know what to do, there was a voice from the end of the palace.
"I deeply agree with what Mr. Kuai said. To resist the violent Qin, you can only fight within a hundred miles, so why go thousands of miles away?"
Chen Yu turned around and saw that it was Chen Sheng who had escorted him to Zhao Di. This boy had been listening silently for a long time and suddenly appeared, which made people shocked.
Chen Sheng stepped forward and saluted Zhao Xie and others: "The foreign minister Chen Sheng is from Yangcheng and is the leader of the Chu army."
Li Zuoche nodded: "What do you think Commander Chen has to say?"
Chen Sheng said: "When I went north from Baimajin, I only heard that Zhao State only had two counties: Handan and Julu. Hengshan and Guangyang in the north, Hanoi in the south, and Shangdang in the west were still the counties of Qin. Why should Zhao State?
Why don't you abandon the near for the far, leave the nearby enemy alone and go to Hangu Pass?"
"Chen Sheng has always believed that General Xiang's strategy is not advisable. He has repeatedly warned him, but he has not listened. I have heard that good birds choose trees to roost in, and good ministers choose their masters to serve. Chen Sheng is willing to submit thousands of people under his command to the State of Zhao and help the king.
Skip the surrounding counties!"
The generals of other countries suddenly offered to surrender, and everyone in Zhao was a little surprised. Chen Sheng looked at Chen Yu and nodded to him.
"What Chen Sheng said is absolutely true!"
Chen Yu also realized that the two of them went north to realize their ambitions. Now that their mission has failed, Zhao State is unwilling to work with Chu State. If the two of them go back in despair, given Xiang Ji's temper, even if he doesn't kill them,
I'm afraid it will also be completely left out.
Rather than go back and suffer, it is better to stay in the north and maybe even get a title as a lord!
Chen Yu gritted his teeth and said: "Chen Yu is not from Chu, but he regards Zhao as his home. He would rather be a minister of Zhao and serve the king."
"Chen Yu tried to visit the land of Zhao, and his wife's family belongs to the Gongcheng family of a wealthy family in Kuxing. I am willing to go north to recruit heroes from Hengshan County for Zhao!"
