Warring States Call

Chapter 627 Fan Zeng's Chess
"Your Majesty hastily sent troops like this. Even if we get Shouchun, we will still offend Wu. From a long-term perspective, we still won't gain much!" Cao GUI worried.

Although Xiang Yu won the main territory of Shouchun, but in the future when Wu State wants to move westward, Shouchun will bear the brunt of it. At that time, Xiang Yu will be equivalent to serving as a watchdog for Chu State, and he will be sent away by a piece of meat.

Xiang Yu shook his arms: "Of course this Gu knows it, but who said that Gu really wants to send troops to deal with the [-] troops of Wu State advancing eastward, and Gu can wait for him to blackmail him when Chu State is out of breath?" !”.

"Your Majesty can't do it. If we do this, we will lose our trust in the Chu State, and it will be detrimental to your future career as a king!" Fan Zeng was the first to stand up to object, and at the same time, seeing his expression, it turned out to be an understatement.

Xiang Yu glanced at Fan Zeng, then walked down, looked at Fan Zeng very respectfully and said, "What good plan does Ya Fu have?"

Fan Zeng immediately smiled and said, "The old man is getting old, but he also thought of a strategy that will benefit the king and fisherman!"

"Hahahahaha! As expected of Yafu!" Xiang Yu laughed loudly, with a hint of arrogance flashing in his eyes, Xiang Yu turned his head back after a while, and said, "If Yafu has anything to do, why not just say it!"

"In the past few days, the state of Wu has also been eyeing our country. It has sent the general of the state of Wu, Sun Wu, to guard the land of Guangling, with no fewer than [-] troops. The king can order the army to attack this place. In the past, the general of Qi, Tian Ji, surrounded Wei and rescued Zhao. Why don't the king come to encircle Wu today? Save Chu!" Fan Zeng said slowly, with a hint of complacency in his cloudy old eyes.

"Fan Xiang's strategy is wonderful! This way our army can confront Wu's elite troops head-on, and our country can expand its borders, killing two birds with one stone! Wonderful... Really wonderful!" Hao Yuan applauded, obviously this strategy It's a win-win solution.

"Hahahaha! Good!" Xiang Yu touched his beard and said with emotion, he left and returned to his position, staring at the generals around him, he said half aloud, "Where is the dragon!"

"The last general is here!" Long Qie stood behind Xue Ju, stepping on his own footsteps, and stood up with piercing eyes.

"I will give you [-] troops to attack cities and villages along the way. If the former Wang Guangling meets Sun Wu, remember not to fight with him. This man is a master of military affairs. Gu Yu will meet him in person." Xiang Yu leaned down and stared at Sun Wu. Long Qi directly handed over this arduous task to him.

"The last general has an order!" Long Qi smiled, holding the tiger talisman and retreating.

"Fang Jie, Zhong Limei, the two of you will be Long Qie's right and left hands!"

"Order!"

"Heng Chu...Jing Si...Xue Rengao, the three of you are acting as deputy under the lonely hand"

"Order!"

"What is the king going to do at the end of the day!" Seeing that his son had made arrangements, Xue Ju couldn't help being puzzled. He usually fought with Xiang Yu, and he didn't pull off dozens of wars, big and small. Why did he let himself down today? .

Xiang Yu looked at the anxious Xue Ju with a smile and said, "Don't worry, Gu will give you [-] soldiers and horses to lie dormant in the land of Shouchun, and wait for Gu to fix Sun Wu. You are waiting for the opportunity to meet Gu in Shouchun." !"

"The last general takes the order!" Xue Ju saw that he had his own share, and resumed his old ways.
"Shan Xiongxin...Xiang Zhuang...Xiang Han, the three of you will serve as lieutenants under him!"

"promise!"

"Your Majesty, I want to remind you of one thing!" Fan Zeng put his hands into his sleeves, his expression serious, not as calm as before.

Seeing Fan Zeng's expression, Xiang Yu didn't dare to make a fuss: "Father Ya has something to say, but it's okay to say it!"

Fan Zeng looked at the people around him, squinted his eyes and said, "Only the king can listen to this statement!"

Xiang Yu glanced at the surrounding area, and said half aloud: "

"You all go down and prepare food, grass and horses!" Xiang Yu saw that the arrangements were made everywhere, so he took advantage of the situation and told them all to go down.

"promise!"

When everyone heard it, they also felt that it made sense, and retreated to the rear.

Xiang Yu looked at Fan Zeng, puzzled and said, "Father Ya, what do you want to say!"

Fan Zeng took his crutches and went up slowly, staring at Xiang Yu with two pairs of eyes, and said half aloud: "Your Majesty, have you ever thought about the future!"

"Future!" Xiang Yu was confused by the word Fan Zeng, what is the meaning of this.

"That's right! Your Majesty occupies the sixth place in Jingchu, as well as the entire Xu Kingdom. The land area already has the momentum of a second-class powerful country in the world, but to put it bluntly, we are now only able to reach the power of a third-class country, and we are completely unable to compete with those big countries." Fan Zeng looked sad, obviously this matter has troubled him for a long time.

"Yafu, what are you trying to say!" Xiang Yu raised his eyes, not knowing what Fan Zeng was going to say.

"The state of Chu is getting weaker and weaker, and they are no longer in a good position. In the future, the land of Chu will either belong to the king or the state of Wu, or which Sun Jian belongs to. The king is willing to take this state of Chu!" Fan Zeng asked Xiang Yu with serious eyes. .

"Of course we won the land of Chu, but we can't go there blatantly, we can only go step by step. Isn't that what you said, Yafu?" Xiang Yu looked puzzled, wondering why Fan Zeng would ask such a question.

"If the head of the family (Xiang Yan) defends the state of Chu for a day, the king will be the sword of Chu for a day, the king can think about it!" Fan Zeng calmed down, obviously such a ban, he had to say it.

"Yafu, don't mention this matter anymore, let's take it one step at a time!" Xiang Yu was obviously a little annoyed, he didn't want to answer this matter, but where to put it is not a problem.

Fan Zeng said helplessly: "In order to express sincerity in this battle, the Chu State will definitely let the Patriarch lead troops to fight against the Wu State. If the Patriarch is in danger, will the King go or not?"

"Grandpa's military skills are like a god, Sun Jian is not yet his opponent, Yafu shouldn't think like this, we are still preparing for the immediate matter." After speaking, Xiang Yu walked towards the back.

Fan Zeng didn't stop him, looked at Xiang Yu's leaving back, and murmured to himself: "Yu'er, kindness is indeed your greatest weakness, but fortunately, the chess that I played for you is beneficial and harmless, so you just want to play it." Follow the path that this old man has laid out for you!"

Fan Zeng shook his head with a wry smile, turned his head to look at the resplendent and magnificent hall, walked outside, thinking as he walked.

If Xiang Yu was to deal with Sun Wu, if Zhu Yuanzhang was smart, he would definitely merge with Sun Jian and attack Xiang Yan. No matter how powerful Xiang Yan was, it would be difficult to fly with his wings, so Fan Zeng played this move for Chu, or for Xiang Yan.

And the key chess piece is here with Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu follows his own path. Once Xiang Yan dies, it will be another situation. It will be beneficial and harmless to Xiang Yu, but whether Xiang Yu can accept this reality, Fan Zeng does not know The only thing Fan Zeng knows is that a ruler should do whatever it takes.
