Chapter 509 Wei Chu Game
In the city of Chengdu, a catastrophe had just come to an end; in the north of Shu, the Wei army that was moving south had already received the news.
Soon after, such a message went all the way north, from Bashu to Guanzhong, and finally followed the river eastward to Anyi, the capital of Wei State.
Wei Guo, Anyi, within the royal palace.
"If you act like this, you will definitely fail."
After a faint sigh, Wei Wang Wei Feng gently put down the silk book in his hand, but the vast distance in his eyes was so clear.
Carelessly handing the silk book in his hand to Prime Minister Gong Sun Qi, Wei Feng stood up from his seat and walked step by step to the palace gate.
"Knowing that the Crown Prince Du and Empress Du had offered the land of Hanzhong on behalf of the Shu Kingdom and used it to establish good relations with the Wei Dynasty, they still dared to launch a palace coup."
"The first time you lose your destiny."
"In Hanzhong, Jiameng Pass was a barrier for Shu, but it fell into the hands of the Wei Dynasty in a short period of time. Our army is about to reach the gates of Chengdu."
"Another loss of ground."
Slowly putting away the silk book in his hand, Gongsun Qi slowly stood up and followed Wei Feng's footsteps step by step to stand beside Wei Feng.
"Now I dare to risk the disapproval of the world and launch an army and massacre in the capital city, causing the loss of life. Although I can barely survive for a while, I have lost my heart as a commoner."
"We lost peace again."
Looking at the distant sky in front of him, Gongsun Qi said calmly: "With the right time, the right location, and the right people, the country can be strong and prosperous."
"But Du Jiameng lost all three, and I thought his defeat was not far away."
Eyes slowly closed and then opened, Gongsun Qi turned to Wei Feng aside, but a hint of joy appeared on his face.
"I would like to congratulate the king and congratulate the Great Wei."
"After this battle, the Kingdom of Shu will definitely be completely convinced of our great Wei. We, our great Wei, will have one less powerful enemy and one more loyal minister in the southwest."
"Not only that……"
As soon as Gongsun Qi's congratulations ended, Wei Feng's eyes turned to the south.
"Originally, Shu and Chu supported each other. This time, Shu completely fell to Wei, and Chu lost another arm."
"After this battle, if you look around the Chu Kingdom, you will see enemies on all sides, and there will be no more reinforcements to ask for."
"That is the time for me, the great Wei Dynasty, to gather all the princes from the world to attack the Chu State and completely solve this serious problem."
After retracting his gaze, Wei Feng turned his gaze to Gongsun Qi beside him, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
"Prime Minister, I really want to know, will the Chu State sit back and watch the Shu Kingdom completely fall to me, the Wei Dynasty?"
"Of course not. Not only will it not happen, but I think there will definitely be big moves."
"Report..."
While the monarch and his ministers were talking, a red figure quickly came to the palace gate.
"I would like to report to your Majesty, the Prime Minister, and report back in detail according to the Chu State. Forty thousand Chu troops left the capital of Ying yesterday and headed towards the west. The specific destination is not yet clear."
"Reply to the letter and order him to investigate again."
"Here."
After the visitor retreated, Wei Feng and Gongsun Qi looked at each other, and a look of genuineness appeared on their faces at the same time.
"Xiangguo, look, the King of Chu in Yingdu City really can't sit still."
"Now that the Chu army has taken action, how does the Prime Minister think we should respond?"
"Your Majesty, the State of Chu is fighting a powerful enemy alone, but we, the Wei Dynasty, are not fighting alone." Faced with Wei Feng's inquiry, Gongsun Qi replied thoughtfully.
"exactly."
"Come here, send an envoy to Xinzheng to tell King Han that I want to join him in hunting Jingxiang."
"I will obey the king's orders."
Looking at another figure disappearing in front of him, Wei Feng, who was already mostly white-haired, only felt complacent, as if he had returned to his youthful age.
Let this battle serve as the prelude, and let the confrontation between Wei and Chu reach its climax.
…
"Kakaka..."
While the monarchs and ministers of Wei State in Anyi City were thinking about how to drag Chu State into this war as much as possible, a carriage was walking slowly in Chengdu City.
Feeling the bumps coming from underneath him, Zhaoyang, as an envoy from Chu State, slowly lifted the curtain of the carriage.
The first thing that attracted Zhaoyang was not the unique houses in Chengdu, but the vague smell of blood coming from a distance.
Recalling the news he received ten days ago, Zhaoyang frowned secretly.
In order to defend the city of Chengdu, Du Jiameng, the Marquis of Ju, launched a palace coup not long ago, but he plunged Chengdu into another catastrophe.
From a short-term perspective, this is undoubtedly beneficial to Juhou's side;
But if Du Jiameng can really lead his army to force the Wei army to retreat, then he will definitely face a joint attack from other places in Shu except Chengdu.
Although deep down in his heart, Zhaoyang did not believe that the Shu army, whose combat power was even inferior to that of the Chu army, could really defeat the Wei army.
"Xu..."
While Zhaoyang's thoughts were flowing in the carriage, a long sound of horse control came from inside the carriage.
"Young Master, I'm waiting."
Slowly calming down his thoughts, Zhaoyang slowly stepped out of the carriage, and the King's Palace of Shu stood before his eyes.
If we have a common enemy, we have a basis for cooperation.
Nowadays, Wei, the most powerful country in the world, is clearly on the side of Shu Crown Prince Du, not to mention that 50,000 elite Wei troops are about to attack the city.
Looking at the world today, the only one in the world that can help Juhou and dare to take the risk of offending the Wei State is the Chu State.
Therefore, when facing the envoys from Chu who came all the way from Yingdu, Marquis Du Jiameng treated them with great courtesy.
Under the guidance of many palace people, Chu Zhaoyang finally saw the goal of his trip after passing through the corridors of the palace.
"Zhaoyang, the envoy of Chu, met Marquis Ju."
Seeing Zhaoyang's courtesy towards him, Du Jiameng, who originally had a smile on his face, felt a little unhappy in his heart.
In Du Jiameng's view, now that he was the lord of Chengdu, the Chu envoy Zhaoyang should treat him with the etiquette of visiting a foreign monarch. How could he be so rude?
It's just that although he is unhappy in his heart, the situation is stronger than others. At this moment, he is in desperate need of external assistance, and the arrival of the Chu State envoy is undoubtedly a timely help.
"The envoys of Chu came all the way from the capital of Ying, but they worked hard all the way."
"Thank you, Marquis Ju." Facing Du Jiameng, Zhaoyang was neither humble nor arrogant, and said calmly: "I heard that the Wei State is unjust and has raised unjust troops to invade the borders of Shu. My king is really unhappy."
"We hereby send foreign ministers to Chengdu to express our Chu State's willingness to reach an alliance with Marquis Ju to fight against the unjust forces."
Du Jiameng's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard that Chu State was willing to reach an alliance with him.
"The Chu State covers thousands of miles and has millions of troops. With the help of the Chu State, our army will definitely be able to repel the Wei army."
After expressing his determination, Du Jiameng suddenly felt impatient, "I wonder how many troops Chu is willing to send?"
"My 40,000-strong army has set off from Yingdu and is preparing to attack Pakistan."
"forty thousand……"
Seeing Du Jiameng's obviously disgusted face after hearing that Chu State had only sent 40,000 troops, Zhaoyang's opinion of him immediately dropped a bit.
From Zhaoyang's point of view, the roads in Shu were dangerous, with Hanzhong in the north and Jiameng Pass as a barrier. Even if the Wei army had the help of Crown Prince Du, they would not be able to advance so fast.
Among them, I have to say that the Marquis Ju in front of me is really...
After all, the two sides were allies now. Faced with the look on Du Jiameng's face, Zhaoyang immediately said: "But please rest assured, Marquis Ju, our Chu State's 40,000 troops are enough to force the Ba Army to return."
"Marquis Ju can hold Chengdu firmly and concentrate on dealing with the invading Wei army."
