My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 428: Both humans and ghosts are acting, killing people and setting fires, and being recruited!

The King of Chu turned his gaze towards Xiong Xun.

Xiong Xun immediately stepped forward and asked angrily: "Comrades, do you want to force me into the palace?"

Zhaocen looked at Xiong Xun sincerely: "We have no intention of forcing her to have a baby."

"However, today the bandits have gathered more than 30,000 tribesmen in Chao City. If our great Chu still ignores them, as time goes by, there will be more and more bandits!"

"When the thieves and bandits gather together with more than 100,000, or even hundreds of thousands of people, how can I, the great Chu, survive!"

Zhaocen faced the King of Chu with his cud in his hands and bowed his hands in a salute: "I'll invite you again!"

"Use food and grass as support, seek an alliance with Qin, and call off the troops to make a truce."

"Immediately order the army to return to the court and put an end to the bandits!"

All the courtiers raised their hands and shouted: "Your Majesty, please put the overall situation first!"

The side effects of the King of Chu's task of clearing out foreigners and officials from common people, leaving only aristocratic children as officials in the court, were fully demonstrated at this moment.

Except for a few dozen courtiers who remained silent, all the courtiers gathered together to force the palace!

Judging from the scene, King Chu was at an absolute disadvantage.

Whether it was due to the pressure from the nobles of the Chu state or the pressure from the court officials, King Fu Chu had no choice but to comply with the suggestions of Zhaocen and others.

The King of Chu sighed with regret, "I am very disappointed in you!"

Zhaocen and other court officials were indifferent to King Chu's words.

There are many kings of Chu who are disappointed with us.

Who are you?

Jing Huan and other Jing family members looked at King Chu with a dangerous look.

They have killed two kings of Chu.

If the King of Chu is stubborn and stubborn, they don't mind killing another King of Chu!

The King of Chu lowered his crotch and asked in a deep voice: "When the master returns to the court, will the dilemma faced by Chu be solved?"

"If you lobby the King of Qin with money and food, will the King of Qin definitely withdraw his army?"

"Sliding the world's great joke!"

Qu He said in a deep voice without flinching: "I am willing to give it a try!"

"If the King of Qin cannot be told to retreat, then please ask the King to take the heads of his ministers!"

"As for quelling the domestic chaos, I believe in Shangzhu Kingdom."

Qu He put his life on the line!

Because in Qu He's view, this task is actually very simple.

Even if Chu does not send money or food, Qin is likely to agree to a truce and focus on dealing with Zhao.

If the Chu State was willing to donate the grain and grass that the Qin State was most in need of, the Qin State might agree that day!

Even if King Qin was resentful of Chu's repeated betrayal of alliances and decided to fight, Qu He still had a card he could play.

Xiong Qi!

As long as he secretly promised to support Xiong Qi to succeed the King of Chu, Qu He believed that Xiong Qi would be willing to help Chu State lobby the King of Qin.

The ministers looked at Qu He with a little more admiration, and then they all raised their hands without hesitation:

"I second the proposal!"

Under the repeated persecution of his ministers, the situation of King Chu of Chu seemed to be getting more and more difficult.

However, the King of Chu showed no signs of panic at all. Instead, he looked at the ministers with increasingly dissatisfied eyes: "I am very disappointed in you!"

Hearing King Chu Chu say these words again, many courtiers visibly frowned.

Is it because the burden is gone or are we unable to lift the knife?

You don’t want to see the sun tomorrow, right?

Qu He asked directly: "Do the ministers and others have to support the king to ignore the domestic chaos and continue the war with the Qin State with no chance of winning, so that the king will not be disappointed with the ministers and others?"

"I can't do it!"

"I am definitely not one of those sycophants who just want to flatter you!"

The King of Chu carried his cud and rebuked angrily: "You are not sycophants, you are all stupid ministers!"

"Both Han and Wei are dead today!"

"If Chu and Qin make a truce, Qin may devour Zhao. In the future, which country can join forces with Chu to attack Qin?"

"Not one!"

"We, the great Chu, will surely face an increasingly powerful Qin State alone!"

"At that time, how will our great Chu survive! How will our great Chu people survive!"

There is no stupid person who can stand in the court.

They all know the truth behind the death of lips and teeth!

All the courtiers knew very well that for the Chu State today, they should continue to fight Qin even if they face the turmoil in the rear, pay a certain price, and get no benefits at all.

The State of Chu should assist the State of Zhao in weakening the State of Qin so as not to face an unrivaled opponent in the future. At least it should protect the State of Zhao so that the State of Chu would not have to face Qin alone in the future.

But for them as nobles, safeguarding the interests of the family is far more important than safeguarding the interests of the Chu State.

If the thieves are allowed to attack their cities and weaken their strength.

A hundred years later, the Chu State may still exist, but their family may have disappeared from everyone!

The voice of the King of Chu became more and more angry: "You are not only stupid ministers, but also ruthless ministers!"

"There are tens of thousands of rebels in our Da Chu territory now, and they are still growing rapidly."

"When Chu and Qin have a truce and the army reorganizes, the rebel army in Chu's territory may number more than 100,000!"

"Even if our Chu soldiers are brave and brave, how many lives of our soldiers need to be sacrificed to quell the turmoil?"

"Those are the elites of all the tribes! They are the tribesmen of all the tribes! They are also the foundation of my great Chu!"

"I can't bear to see them die in vain. How can you sit back and watch them being killed by a group of thieves!"

Ministers:? ? ?

Some courtiers looked stunned.

Listening to the meaning of King Chu's words, why not return to the army to quell the rebellion? Is it for the sake of nobles like them?

But compared to this 'goodwill', what they care more about is food!

Zhaocen said in a deep voice: "If it is for the sake of the generals and soldiers in the army, I, the Chu State, should withdraw our troops as soon as possible!"

"I know that the king is benevolent, but I advise the king not to sit back and watch the people of our country being attacked by bandits just because of a single thought of benevolence!"

Xiong Xun suddenly said: "I believe that what the king said is true!"

"Now that the master has returned to the court, it will be a big disadvantage!"

"Instead of having our Chu generals and soldiers fight with their lives against the bandit armies, it would be better to order some elite bandit troops to be installed."

"Practice to drive away wolves and devouring tigers!"

The King of Chu emptied his crotch and nodded with satisfaction: "Xiong Hou's plan is very good!"

"Such advice is the kind of advice that pleases everyone!"

Some courtiers' eyes lit up: "This strategy is wonderful!"

"No wonder the king said that his ministers are stupid and ruthless. Compared with this strategy, what we have just advised is unwise!" "If this strategy is adopted, not only can a bandit-suppressing army be quickly mobilized to prevent the rapid expansion of bandits, but also Let the soldiers on the front line kill the enemy with peace of mind, not destroy the current situation, and avoid the casualties of the common people, tribesmen and soldiers, why not do it!"

"It was me who misunderstood your Majesty!"

One strategy offers the best of all three!

The interests of King Chu of Chu and the nobles were once again consistent.

The murderous intent in the eyes of many courtiers turned into deep guilt.

We are planning to kill the king and establish a new king, but the king is always thinking about us.

I wait, damn it!

However, Zhaocen's eyes were focused.

Something is wrong!

Zhaocen knew very well that Xiong Xun was the hunting dog of King Chu, and there was no doubt that Xiong Xun’s advice came from King Chu’s order.

But would King Chu of Chu be so kind?

Will a person who actively unites the nobles to kill the king and ascend the throne really become the loyal dog of the nobles, and even actively think about the interests of the nobles?

Zhaocen said in a deep voice: "I think it's inappropriate!"

"Thieves and bandits are all guilty of causing chaos!"

"If we, the great Chu, pardon his crimes just because he caused greater turmoil, or even use his title or official position to issue an edict, this would be a blasphemy to the laws of our great Chu, and it would be an insult to the common people who keep their own laws."

"In the past, our great Chu Zhao'an only chose two or three bandit leaders, and the impact was not big."

"But if this example is widely used, I fear that there will be more common people and servants who have no intention of turning back, but will actively become thieves in order to seek peace from the imperial edict!"

"You are actually poisoning the future just for the sake of a breath of peace!"

Although he still couldn't figure out where the trap was, Zhaocen instinctively rejected the proposal.

Xiong Xun replied without hesitation: "After the Qing Dynasty captures the domestic bandits, they will send these Zhao'an thieves to the battlefield of Qin and Chu."

"Everyone knows that the Qin army is brave and brave. These Zhao'an thieves are not as good as our Chu soldiers. It is natural to think that they all died under the sword of the Qin army."

Even Zhaocen couldn't help but secretly smack his tongue.

This move is cruel enough to kill people with a borrowed knife!

Pretty enough too!

If this strategy could be implemented reliably, not only would the Chu army not have to die in battle, it would even be able to squeeze out all the value of the bandits within the territory!

However, Zhaocen was still quite vigilant: "Who does Xiong Houyan think should go to Zhao'an?"

"After Zhao'an, how will these thieves be managed?"

Xiong Xun said in a deep voice: "I believe that the current state of Chu is in a critical situation and we cannot be rigid in our actions."

"All court officials and common people can serve as envoys to lobby for the peace of bandits."

"Of course, even in a desperate situation, you can't act without rules."

"Based on the bandits' strength, food, and area they occupy, I, the Great Chu, will formulate a corresponding set of Zhao'an rules."

"Those who have more troops and occupy more cities and villages will be awarded higher titles and official positions."

"All thieves and bandits are commanded by the person with the highest rank and title."

Zhaocen flatly refused: "No!"

"If the bandits who were ordered to stay control this army, the army may surrender and rebel again at any time!"

Xiong Xun frowned slightly: "What is Zhaoling Yin's advice?"

Zhaocen pondered for a moment and then gave his request: "Who is responsible for the imperial edict, who is the leader, and who is responsible!"

"If a bandit surrenders and rebels again, the person responsible for the imperial edict will also be punished!"

It sounds like Zhaocen is emphasizing the division of responsibilities and putting a tight spell on everyone who wants to order the thieves to safety.

But in fact, Zhaocen's move split the unified Zhao'an army into private armies of various powerful clans!

Xiong Xun said angrily: "Zhao Ling Yin's advice is not for the sake of the country, but for the sake of personal gain for the people!"

"Zhao Lingyin still remembers that you are not only the leader of the Zhao clan, but also my great Chu Lingyin!"

King Chu suddenly spoke: "The people of Chu are the cornerstone of our country and the pillars of our country."

"If the people are rich, then Chu will be rich."

"If the people are stable, the Chu will be stable."

"There is nothing wrong with seeking the interests of the people."

Hearing the words of King Chu of Chu, even Zhaocen was in a daze.

If his advice is really allowed, then this Zhao'an policy will undoubtedly greatly enhance the military strength of the major clans.

Could it be that the King of Chu was really thinking about the nobles of Chu State at all times?

Xiong Xun said anxiously: "But..."

The King of Chu held the cud and waved his hand: "In the end, these traitorous troops who were ordered to be safe will fill the battlefield of Qin and Chu, and kill them with the swords of the Qin army."

"It doesn't matter who you belong to."

"Just follow Zhao Lingyin's words!"

"but……"

A 'but' made the nobles' hearts rise again.

The King of Chu carried the cud and continued: "The troops of Shangzhu State suffered a lot of damage in the battle, but Lord Chang'an of Qin was fierce and brave."

"Now that the domestic predicament has been solved, I intend to raise more troops to support Shangzhu's troops."

"What do you think, my dear friends?"

All the courtiers looked at each other.

That's it?

Your Majesty has thought so much about us and the people, and the rest of his thoughts are also about winning this battle. How can we have nothing in return!

And on the premise that their inherent interests are protected, why don't they hope to earn more interests?

Most of the ministers raised their hands in unison: "I, ministers, are willing to fight for the great Chu!"

Although Zhaocen, Qu He and others still wanted to refuse, seeing that all the ministers had agreed, they themselves could not think of the trap for a while, so they could only keep silent.

The King of Chu laughed heartily and said, "Good! Very good!"

"Our great Chu rulers and ministers are of one mind, and we will win this battle!"

"My dear friends, please prepare a memorial as soon as possible to perfect this strategy!"

Many courtiers suddenly raised their hands: "Wei!"

After the ministers dispersed, the King of Chu asked quietly, "Have you written down everything?"
