Competing

Chapter 570 Chapter [-] Reasonable Explanation
United against Western Chu?Yin Xu thought he heard it wrong.

Now Chu and Han are negotiating peace, even if the two will not have any conspiracy against Yue, but the truce seems to be expected. Before the event, who is Liu Bang cheating?
Or... Could it be that Liu Bang meant to unite with the Yue Kingdom to deal with Xiang Yu before, why did he suddenly change his mind now?
Yin Xu smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Li, does the King of Han really have this intention?"

Li Ze nodded and said: "Yes, the Western Chu Kingdom has indissoluble hatred with our Han Kingdom, and it is even more aggressive. In the past, the King of Han led the allied forces of the princes into Pengcheng, but failed to wipe out the main force of the Chu Kingdom. Now it is even more difficult for the Han Kingdom to become independent. Complete this matter. Therefore, the King of Han and Mr. Zhang Liang specially ordered me to come to Hongdu and invite the King of Yue to send troops to deal with Chu."

Liu Bang has a good face, and the fiasco of Pengcheng in the past has become like this after some whitewashing.If he hadn't ruled out Du Shang to save him, Liu Bang might have died by the Sui River long ago.So Yin Xu wanted to laugh when he heard what Li Ze said, but fortunately, he held back the good thing and saved some face for the King of Han.Looking at Li Ze's concentration, it doesn't seem like he is talking nonsense.Yin Xu also doesn't believe that Liu Bang dared to joke about this matter, so the alliance has a certain meaning.

It's just slightly inconsistent with this fact, what happened in it?Yin Xu will not ask for now, I believe Li Ze will give a reasonable explanation.

"Oh? Why does the King of Han think that the widow will agree to send troops? Or why does the King of Han think that it is necessary for the State of Yue to jointly send troops to deal with the Western Chu State?" Yin Xu calmed down and was not in a hurry. He first listened to Liu Bang's reasons and original plans.As for the others, it is not in a hurry, it can be sorted out slowly.

Yin Xu's reaction seemed to be completely expected. Li Ze became very calm, and began to answer with a smile: "The Yue Kingdom and the Western Chu Kingdom confront each other across a large river, which can be regarded as a hostile relationship. Although the Western Chu Kingdom is not as good as the But once Xiang Yu gets mad, no one will be able to resist. Presumably the king of Yue doesn't want to see such a situation, so Xiang Yu is our common enemy. The king of Han thought that it was necessary for Yue to send troops to deal with Western Chu.

Furthermore, Han and Yue are countries of in-laws, so they are already more familiar and closer.If your two countries join hands, it should be easy to deal with Western Chu.What's more, now that Fan Yafu is gone and Long Qi was beheaded by King Han Xin of Qi, the strength of Western Chu State is not as good as before. If we take advantage of the situation and take a heavy blow now, Western Chu State will definitely perish, which is beneficial to both countries.Believe that such a great opportunity, King Yue is not willing to give up, right? "

Such a reaction, calm and orderly answer, shows that Li Ze is an excellent debater.It was right for Liu Bang and Zhang Liang to choose him as an envoy to Yue.

Yin Xu smiled in his heart. Because he was married to Lu Yi, this in-law relationship was constantly emphasized, and Liu Bang really put his nose on the nose.Jiang Lu Yi is still in Jiangdong, how has anyone cared about her life and happiness?In Liu Bang's eyes, it was nothing more than a tool to be used, and Yin Xu disdained it very much.

"Oh? The most important thing in forming an alliance and cooperation is to be honest with each other and cooperate with each other tacitly. I don't know how Hanwang thinks about this? Are you willing to let go of the past?" Yin Xu asked further, which seemed to be a bit of persecution to Li Ze .The meaning of the words is obvious, and the previous suspicion between the Yue State and the Han State is even more Bashu.When Yin Xu asked this question, firstly, he wanted to make it difficult for Li Ze, and secondly, he wanted to test Han's attitude on this matter.

Li Ze hesitated slightly, this was a slightly tricky question.When he came, Mr. Zhang Liang expected that the Yue Congress would make a fuss about the Bashu issue.Now it is the issue of alliance and cooperation between the two countries, and Bashu is an obstacle between the two countries.

The Han State has always been very angry at the fact that the Yue State took over Bashu, especially Han King Liu Bang.There were also voices in the Han Dynasty demanding to take back the land of Bashu, but due to practical reasons, they finally gave up.However, the Han Kingdom has always been particularly interested in this place of fortune, and is unwilling to give up.

Now that Yin Xu asked this, it was tantamount to asking Han to admit to abandoning Bashu.Li Ze was in a bit of a dilemma. Although Bashu was already in the hands of the Yue State, what should we say about its legitimacy?It seems that it is not very sure yet.However, the State of Yue has actual control over Bashu. If there are many entanglements in this matter, won't it hinder the current cooperation between the State of Han and the State of Yue?If the possession of the Yue State is recognized, it seems that the Han army will lose its reasonable reason for wanting to recover Bashu in the future.

After a little hesitation, Li Ze said, "I believe that the Han and Vietnamese countries will have a tacit understanding in dealing with the Western Chu Kingdom."

Avoiding talking about it is probably the best choice for Li Ze now!This responsibility is too great for him to bear.

Yin Xu smiled lightly, knowing it in his heart, and stopped asking further questions.Anyway, Bashu is in his own hands, what can Liu Bang say?

"The King of Han really wholeheartedly wants to form an alliance with our country of Yue?" Yin Xu asked with a smile, this is the core issue at the moment.

Li Ze nodded and said, "Yes, the King of Han sincerely wants to form an alliance with the King of Yue."

"Is that single-minded?" Yin Xu asked in a deep voice.

Li Ze couldn't help but move in his heart, what does this mean?Could there be another problem?Could it be that he left Xingyang for a few days, and something new happened there?
Without knowing the new situation and not being fully sure of it, Li Ze really didn't dare to answer rashly.Could it be that another thing Mr. Zhang Liang planned has succeeded?This speed seems a bit too fast.But even so, it is impossible for the Yue Kingdom to get the news so quickly, right?Li Ze was very puzzled, a little hesitant.

After a moment of silence, thinking of Mr. Zhang Liang's explanation, he decided to tell the truth.If that happened, there wouldn't be any misunderstandings.Anyway, since I am here in Vietnam, the most important task is to explain this matter.

"King Yue, the King of Han sent his ministers to Hongdu for this purpose! If King Yue hears news of contacts between Chu and Han, don't take it too seriously!" Li Ze replied in a deep voice.

The hearts of Yin Xu and the important ministers of Yue State moved, and there was indeed something hidden in it.

"What do you mean by this? Could it be that the Chu and Han countries are just joking around?" Yin Xu asked nonchalantly, also trying to test how much Li Ze knew.

When Yin Xu asked such a question, Li Ze's heart skipped a beat. Did something really happen?
"What rumor did King Yue hear?" Li Ze still didn't quite believe it. Even if there was any contact between Chu and Han, it was impossible for Yue to get the news so quickly.

Yin Xu said in a deep voice: "The Chu and Han countries have already started peace negotiations at Guangwu Mountain outside Xingyang City. I wonder how Mr. Li will explain this?"

It has always been a secret that Yue State's intelligence system is powerful, but today Yin Xu deliberately told Li Ze in front of him, which is equivalent to indirectly telling Han King Liu Bang.In the process of the Han-Vietnamese joint operations that followed, how to destroy Chu was only one aspect. What happened after the war?In the war, it is necessary to guard against the Han army.

Simply deter Liu Bang like this first, just to tell you clearly that I can quickly detect any troubles you make.In such a way to remind and deter Liu Bang, don't make any shady tricks.Even if Liu Bang knew that the Yue State's intelligence detection and transmission of news were powerful, but how they did it, they may never know.

What?Li Ze was overjoyed at first, but soon he was full of shock and worry.The good news is that the peace talks between Chu and Han have already started, which shows that the things planned by Mr. Zhang Liang have been successfully implemented.This is a very difficult thing, but I didn't expect to have a clue so soon.It seems that God blesses the country of Han, and now it only needs to deal with the affairs of the country of Yue. Li Ze suddenly felt that the pressure on his shoulders was a bit heavy.

The trace of joy in my heart was instantly washed away by shock and worry.Judging from the distance between Xingyang and Hongdu, as well as the time of departure, it is impossible for Yue to get news so soon after the peace talks.But listening to the meaning of King Yue's words, it seems that he already knows the matter well.How did Vietnam do it?Even if the news leaked from the Western Chu Kingdom, it would be impossible for it to reach Hongdu so quickly.They can get news of things thousands of miles away so quickly, is Yue Guo's ability to inquire about news a bit too powerful!
Li Ze couldn't help feeling palpitations, and at the same time, another burst of worry.I don't know the news over there, has there been any change in King Han's mind and strategy?Now that the Yue Kingdom is well aware of this matter, if there is something wrong with his answer, wouldn't it be a little troublesome?The point is that I haven't received any news from the North at all, so I can't make any judgments based on this matter.If you make a mistake, the mission assigned this time cannot be completed, and it may even be dangerous.That's all, I'm afraid there will be some kind of oolong, which will affect the strategy and layout of King Han and Mr. Zhang Liang.

After some ideological struggle, Li Ze decided to follow the established strategy.The possibility of fundamental changes in Han's decision-making in a short period of time is very small. He has already set out. When Hanwang and Mr. Zhang Liang make decisions, they must take it into consideration.Before Mr. Zhang Liang left, he had many instructions. He would never run out of steam in his original affairs, so there must be no problem.Furthermore, as an envoy myself, the responsibility lies in passing on messages between the monarchs, lobbying for negotiations, and other things are not within the scope of the worst consideration.

Li Ze explained: "King Yue, don't worry, this is exactly the purpose of this minister's mission to Yue!"

"I hope that Mister can convince the widow!" Yin Xu said lightly, and the powerful power was already revealed in the words.Li Ze was shocked, feeling that he still underestimated the young King Yue.At the same time, he also knew that if there was no reasonable explanation, there would be no return this time.
