Chapter 411 Morality and Strength

So he chose the captured Ji Bu. Liu Hua set his own bottom line for Ji Bu. As long as Xiang Ceyu chooses to go north to drive out the Huns and is willing to open up land for China, then he and Xiang Ceyu are both Chinese. , and for the sake of fighting against Qin together, he promised Xiang Ceyu to be crowned king and gave him two years to take away as much of Chu's resources as he could.

The only thing not allowed is that people cannot be forced to leave!

Ji Bu asked Liu Hua: "What if the king doesn't agree?"

"You stay in Nanyang and fulfill your loyalty." Liu Hua looked at Ji Bu and said: "The world is big and can accommodate the King of Han and the Overlord, but the Central Plains is too small, so small that Xiang Ceyu and I can only One person can survive!”

At the same time, Liu Hua gave the letter written by Xiang Jian to Ji Bu and asked Ji Bu to give it to Xiang Ceyu.

"Ji Bu, are you back? Just come back and come in to talk." Xiang Ceyu pulled Ji Bu and said.

With a bit of shame on his face, Ji Bu entered the room and said on the ground: "Your Majesty, Ji Bu is incompetent and was captured by the King of Han."

"Ji Bu, I am responsible for that war. If I hadn't stopped, very few of our troops would have escaped!" Zhou Yuji stood up quickly, but took the responsibility calmly and said, "Now that you can come back, you can do it yourself." It's a blessing.

However, Liu Hua asked you to come over, so he should have something to say to you! "

"Yes!" Ji Bu nodded and said: "The Huns who were once defeated by the Qin Dynasty are back. The northern Huns invaded Bingzhou, and Lu Bu has led his army north. Liu Hua hoped that the king would lead the army north to stop the Huns together, so as to entrust the king to overseas. land.

In addition to the fact that the king cannot go south, in two years, as much as the king can take away the resources of the Chu region, that is how much it is. "

At the same time, Ji Bu took out Xiang Jian's letter and gave it to Xiang Ceyu. Xiang Ceyu read the letter and gave it to Zhou Yuji.

I thought the letter was written by Xiang Jian to persuade Xiang Ceyu to surrender, but I didn't expect that in addition to Xiang Jian passing the title of head of the Xiang family to Xiang Ceyu, there was also a world map.

"The Shang Dynasty of Zhou Dynasty divided the world. Obviously, after the Battle of Wuguan, Liu Hua did not intend to kill us all. But as a price, we are afraid that we will have to leave our hometown and not be able to return to Chu!" Zhou Yuji sighed.

"Liu Hua's words are really credible. Wouldn't he deceive us?" Yingbu was a little unwilling.

"The King of Han even made a promise to Ying Ziying. The King of Han cherishes the great hero's sympathy and will definitely not lie to us!" Long Qie said.

It has to be said that when Liu Hua let Ying Ziying go, the princes who died immediately on the battlefield basically had no choice but to accept their fate.

But for the princes who reached a desperate situation, they knew that even if they were defeated, at least they would not be killed directly.

Liu Hua finally left a way for them. Although this road was not easy to walk, relatively speaking, the existence of this road would not make them completely despair. After all, they were still princes after all.

"Liu Hua's promise... I believe it!" Xiang Ceyu sighed and said: "The heroes among the princes in the world today are only a few people besides me and him. If the Central Plains were not too small, I would We wouldn’t have gotten to where we are now with him.”

"Your Majesty, when the King of Han asked me to persuade him, he came over and told me that the Central Plains is too small, so small that you and the King of Han can only live together, but the world is so big, that you and him can coexist!" Ji Bu also agreed! Said Xiang Ceyu.

"Respect the king and repel the barbarians, and the nine princes... The ancestral dragon unified the Central Plains, and Liu Hua inherited the ancestral dragon's will and chose to unify the Central Plains. But he also chose to inherit the feudal system of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, except that the scope of the feudal territory was outside the Central Plains ." Zhou Yuji said, "No matter how you say it, the defeat of the coalition of princes forces us to be trapped in Nanyang.

But there is no danger in Nanyang. If we are defeated next time, not only the Central Plains, but also the entire world will have no place for us. "     "Do you mean we surrender? "Xiang Ceyu looked at Zhou Yuji and asked seriously.

Xiang Ceyu did not expect that even the most determined Zhou Yuji would waver at this time.

But it’s normal to think about it. For me, the defeat of Wuguan didn’t take a hit to my pride? !

Zhou Yuji continued: "Whether you choose to accept Liu Hua's kindness is your decision, but I will follow it no matter what decision you make. All I can do is help you analyze what will happen to us if you don't accept Liu Hua's kindness. Sample!

The reasons mentioned just now are still light. Liu Hua's reason for us to choose to accept him is to protect China and drive out aliens. If we don't even abide by this moral principle, then he will have the best excuse to attack us. "

"Liu Hua... is still so good at what he does." Xiang Ceyu couldn't help but sigh after hearing Zhou Yuji's analysis.

To be honest, if Xiang Ceyu was alone, Xiang Ceyu did not want to surrender to Liu Hua.

But not only are Zhou Yuji, Long Qie, Ying Bu, Ji Bu and other brothers by his side, he can definitely break out of Liu Hua's siege alone.

But what about those who trust themselves? Can I protect them?

"The victories in the battles of Luoyang and Wuguan, the morality of the alien invasion, and my father's letter, after all, Liu Hua didn't give me a chance to choose at all!"

Xiang Ceyu looked a little melancholy at this moment and said, "I can only choose to surrender to him..."

"If you choose to surrender, then let's discuss the terms with Liu Hua!" Zhou Yuji said.

"Negotiate terms?" Hearing Zhou Yuji's words, Xiang Ceyu looked at Zhou Yuji somewhat unexpectedly.

And Zhou Yuji said, "I have nothing to say after being defeated by Han Xin, but I can't bear it if even the descendants have to be bullied for the rest of their lives! So naturally we have to talk to Liu Hua about the terms. It doesn't matter if we lose, but at least we can give the descendants something." A chance to win back!”

Hearing this, Xiang Ceyu's expression straightened and he said, "What do you think?"

"I have also studied the map Liu Hua gave us, and there are only three choices: the north, the western region, and the southeast!" Zhou Yuji said, "The climate in the north is cold, which is not conducive to the cultivation of crops.

Food is the most important thing for the people, and since our food supply is restricted, it is really difficult for us to escape from the oppression of the Han Dynasty. The only possibility is to wait until the big man weakens. How long do you think Liu Hua can survive? "

"I dare not say anything about his appearance, but if he reaches the level of breaking through the world, he should have no problem living for two hundred years." Xiang Ceyu said.

"So if we choose to go north, we will definitely be suppressed for a lifetime, especially if Liu Hua started in Youzhou and occupied Liaodong, if he lives longer than us. Do you think the country we created can withstand Liu Hua's Erosion, even plunder!

Therefore, the principality we build must be in a place beyond Liu Hua's reach, and it needs to have sufficient strategic depth. It doesn't matter if we are having a hard time now, but we must not let Liu Hua eat us up! "

"Where do you want to go? Go south to fight Liu Yu and Zhu Hai?" Xiang Ceyu asked Zhou Yuji.

"The Western Regions!" Zhou Yuji said, "The Western Regions have the Northern Liang King, the Huns, the Turks, and other countries, and there will be Ying Ziying in the future. This shows that the Western Regions are bigger than we imagined, so even if you join us It just makes the Western Region a little more chaotic.

But if I stay in the Central Plains, I have an intuition that all the forces in the Central Plains will be caught and eliminated one by one by Liu Hua! Liu Hua's solution is not that of wanton conquest, but that Liu Hua will find ways to govern any land he occupies! "

　According to the arrangements of various princes, the king of Northern Liang was responsible for Anxi and Tubo, Xiang Ceyu was in the north of Guishang, Zhu Hai was in charge of the navy, Liu Yu was in Southeast Asia and Nangui.
