Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 737
As the saying goes, "If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight."

Today's celebration is for Fang Bo, the overlord of the princes!
Even if Dun and Xu are not vassals of Wu, they cannot sit back and watch the two countries be annexed by other countries.

Why?

Not to mention the Dun country, after all, it is only a county, a tiny country.

Xu Guo can't do it, especially if it can't be annexed by Zheng Guo!

Xu State is a viscount country, and its first king is Uncle Xu Wen.

Xu Guo has the surname of Jiang, and he is the same ancestor as Qi Guo. He is the heir of Taiyue after the Siyue Boyi.

At that time, King Cheng of Zhou enfeoffed the feudal lords. Among them, in the old land of the Shang Dynasty, some vassal states surnamed Ji and many vassal states surnamed Jiang were also entrusted.

The reason why Qingji couldn't tolerate Zheng Guo's destruction of Xu was because Xu's geographical location was very superior.

As "in the middle of the Central Plains", Xu country has an unparalleled geographical advantage.

However, if you fall behind, you will be beaten, and Xu Guo is no exception.

Since entering the age of great struggle, the state of Xu has been like a flat boat, precarious in the struggle for hegemony among the princes.

Because Xu State is located in the center of the Central Plains, there are many powerful and powerful people around, staring at each other.

Xu Guo had no choice but to deal carefully among the powerful countries. When Qi was strong, he attached Qi, when Chu was prosperous, he attached Chu, and when Jin came, he returned to Jin.

Even so, Zheng State in the north always had the ambition to annex Xu State.

During Zheng Zhuanggong's time, he also broke through the capital of Xu State and destroyed Xu State.

Fortunately, there was a civil strife in the state of Zheng, and Xu Mugong rebuilt the state of Xu. From then on, the state of Zheng regarded the state of Xu as an enemy and repeatedly raised troops to violate Xu.

In the past 100 years, Xu State was invaded eleven times, of which nine were invaded by Zheng State.

One can imagine what kind of feud this is!
Xu country is undoubtedly a hard-working country, full of disasters and disasters.

Xu State, which was invaded by Jin State and Zheng State, had already lost a large area of ​​land. In desperation, Xu Linggong, the fifteenth king, moved the capital of Xu State from Xu to Ye, and became the state of Chu State. A vassal of Chu.

Even so, Xu State still has not been taken care of by Chu State, and Chu State ordered him to move from time to time.

After these repeated tossings, the country of Xu has run out of money, and its reputation is in vain...

Even so, Zheng Guo still seemed unwilling to let Xu Guo go.

Over the years, taking advantage of Chu and Zheng's repeated friction on the ground by Wu, Xu's national strength has been restored.

After Chu State was completely destroyed, Xu State also chose to pay tribute to the overlord Jin State instead of surrendering to Wu State.

Looking for distance?

Isn't this killing it?

As the state of Jin fell apart, the state of Xu was doomed to become a victim.

"Your Majesty."

Zhi Su Nei Shi once pointed to Qing Ji and said: "I think that we can take this opportunity to send troops to destroy Chen. As for Xu Guo, Your Majesty can send troops to help Xu people repel Zheng Shi and make Xu Guo surrender!"

"inappropriate!"

The censor Fan Li immediately retorted: "Compared to Wu, Chen is just a small country, which can be destroyed with a snap of a finger."

"Of course, the influence of Chen Guo in the Central Plains is not small. If Wu Guo suddenly launches a war to destroy Chen, I am afraid that everyone in the Central Plains will be in danger!"

"Under the instigation of Zhao Yang or Qihou, if the allied forces of the princes come to invade and fight every now and then, it will definitely not benefit our country of Wu!"

Qingji nodded in agreement.

Now the armies of Wei and Song have withdrawn from Cao land one after another, and the [-] Wu troops led by Sun Wu are still stationed at the border between Wu and Song, not far from Chen.

With Sun Tzu's ability and [-] elite troops, Chen Guo must surely be defeated in one battle.

But next, what Wu will face is probably the crusade by the princes of the Central Plains, let them "respect the king and fight against the barbarians" in a legitimate way!

Qing Ji could not be called the overlord, but how could he disregard the interests of the country?
"I don't know what you have to say, Doctor Yushi?"

Zeng asked.

"Mi soldiers."

Fan Li said slowly: "Your Majesty, in the name of Uncle Fang, can issue orders, and in Xu State or Dun State, gather the princes and form an alliance to eliminate soldiers."

"At that time, all princes including Zheng, Song, Wei, and the Six Jin Dynasty, as well as all the vassal monarchs, must be present!"

"The state of Wu needs stability, and the Central Plains also needs stability!"

"good."

Fan Li's proposition undoubtedly coincides with Qing Ji's.

Now, with regard to the countries of the Central Plains, Qingji believes that it is only necessary to maintain the status quo.

Wu Guo doesn't need to get involved in a small country, and he can't tolerate other countries' involvement!

"Type of language."

"Chen is here!"

"Arranging envoys and summoning the princes to form an alliance, I will give you full responsibility."

"promise!"

Wen Zhong immediately agreed.

Immediately, Qingji looked around again, looking at Fan Li, Kong Qiu, Bo Tong, Zeng Dian, Wen Zhong and Ji Ran who were present.

Qingji finally set his sights on Bo Tong, and asked with a half-smile: "Bo Tong, I heard that you have expanded your mansion recently, and many pavilions, terraces and waterside pavilions are as magnificent as a royal palace."

"The last hut was served by four female slaves, and the meal was served by ten female slaves. On the dining table, there are many delicacies such as bear's paw, abalone, and deer antler."

"Your life is more nourishing than the widow's king."

Hearing this, Bo Tong was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his forehead and his face turned pale.

He hurriedly "plopped", knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Qingji tremblingly and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid!"

"You don't have to panic. You deserve it..."

Qing Ji waved his hand and said, "Bo Tong, I don't mind your extravagant life, but don't be extravagant, lest you lose your mind!"

"A gentleman is cautious about his independence, and does not deceive the dark room. He is humble and self-effacing, and he has Zhang Kezhen."

"As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal."

"I know that you are used to a life of luxury. However, if everyone in my country of Wu is like your uncle, sensual and sensual, and indulges in pleasure, how can the country be peaceful and prosperous for a long time?"

Hearing this, Bo Tong hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I will definitely change... definitely change."

Can Bob change it?
Qingji just laughed it off.

The "reform" mentioned by Bo Tong is probably just superficial.

After all, it's hard for others to know how extravagant he lives behind his back!

At this time, Bo Tong was in a lingering fear.

Because he knows that the intelligence network of the Black Ice Platform is not only external, but also internal.

It is said that the Black Ice Terrace has also formed a secret magic team to execute domestic "rebels" who are unfavorable to King Wu...

Moreover, as the hawk dogs celebrating the Ji, the spies of the Black Ice Terrace can be called "a net that penetrates every corner of the world."

In the state of Wu, basically no matter in the workshop or in the home of every official, there will be spies from Heibingtai, who are responsible for monitoring the officials and the people for Qingji.

Such a black ice platform is similar to the Jinyiwei in the Ming Dynasty.

This is actually contrary to Qingji's original intention.

It's just because in this era, the folk customs are still simple, and the officials and officials all know propriety, integrity, patience and self-denial, so they generally abide by the law and dare not do illegal things like favoritism and fraud in the fish and meat village.
