Chapter 769: Necessary Risks

The Spring and Autumn Period is an era when you finish singing and I will take the stage. What the princes think about is to become the overlord and act as a blessing, so as to charge protection fees for the princes, and be able to exert their strength.

Shi Yi firmly believed that the Fan family was very powerful, and Fan country was of course also powerful after successfully "turning his family into a country".

They are still in the heart of the Central Plains and have a geographical advantage to some extent. They can send troops at an extremely fast speed if they want to fight.

On the contrary, if the countries join forces to attack Fan Guo, they will still be able to invade from multiple ways.

Will Lu Wu compete for hegemony? Sure.

However, he will not regard becoming the overlord as his ultimate goal, and he is pursuing such a great cause as sweeping the world.

Zhuxia’s banquets should not be run around, otherwise they would be regarded as a country bumpkin.

Every prince with a seat stays in his or her own position and is served to eat and drink.

This kind of banquet is actually very boring. Generally speaking, it is just listening to the leader's speech, watching singing and dancing, and there are almost no other activities.

After the banquet, Lu Wu sent someone to invite Ju Jun Jimizhou.

Yin family..., no, it should be called Han family now.

The Han family had an enclave on the east side of the sea, which was "encircled" by Ju.

Lu Wu never thought of giving up the enclave, but he had not paid much attention to the development intensity. He just opened some salt fields and did not have a large number of immigrants to develop farming.

Ju Jun came over Jimizhou soon and saluted Lu Wu respectfully, looking as if he was waiting for orders.

"Qi destroys Tan again, Ji, are there any worries about Ju?" Lu Wu asked.

Previously, the Jin State's Qing family had responsible diplomatic relations, waiting for Lu Wu, Shi Yi and Xun to leave. In addition, the decline of Jin State has become a certain fact, diplomatic relations between the various countries must be in chaos.

First of all, Jin State is no longer the powerful Jin State. Some princes may obey Jin State to some extent due to inertia, and more princes will inevitably have other thoughts.

Lu Wu would not and was unwilling to give up the enclave far east, and it became a need to continue to grasp the Ju Kingdom.

Ju Jun Jimizhou immediately said sadly: "If Xun Jun had not attacked Qi, I would have been under the attack of Qi."

However, when the battle started, Wu of the Bank of China was still the general of Jin State and fought a draw with the Qi army.

The Qi army was able to draw with the Jin army? The princes who learned of this battle either moved closer to Qi, or were afraid that Qi would turn their fingers towards him.

If Ju State is very weak, it would be fine, but Ju State only seems to be more backward in system, with a population of about 400,000 or 500,000, which cannot be considered a weak country that is so weak that it is a small country that is scared.

What is even more rare is that the combat effectiveness of the Ju army is not as unbearable as imagined. They are a sure win in the war with Lu, and they can fight against Qi, but they can fight 55. How could they be scared by Qi and surrender?

In fact, Ju Jun Jimizhou, he could guess why Lu Wu summoned, it must be for the enclave on the peninsula.

He came over immediately after being summoned, one was that he was still captured by Lu Wu's prestige, and the other was that he wanted Lu Wu to match the newly released Xun Kingdom.

With Lu Wu's style, he was not so naive that he thought that threatening Ju Jun Jimizhou would achieve his goal, so he made an appointment with Wu from the Bank of China to come in advance.

The second kick came over Wu, the Central Bank, was not surprised to see Ju's king Jimizhou, and thought to myself: "It is beneficial to me to form an alliance with Ju. If Lu is an enemy of me, Ju will be a good friend."

The State of Lu is now very afraid of Xun, just like the State of Song is afraid of Fan. Of course, the reason is that the Xun family destroyed the Wei State and the Fan family destroyed the Zheng State.

How many years have the princes been destroyed? It seems that it has been decades.

That was when Jin became the hegemon and opposed the annexation between the princes. The countries captured the power of Jin. In addition, Jin always took the various countries to attack Chu, which led to the annexation between the princes.

Now there is no more powerful Jin State that is so powerful that it is not daring to act rashly. The Han State that was granted the feudal state, Fan State and Xun State were established by swallowing a vassal state and sharing the state of Jin State. The unsilly princes should have realized that the times have changed.

Lu Wu didn't mention anything more, it was like providing the Bank of China Wu and Jimizhou with an opportunity to discuss in detail, and leaving on the pretext of something.

In fact, Lu Wu doesn't need to say much. No matter whether Xun State can form an alliance with Ju State, neither side can forget Lu Wu's favor.

In addition, even if only a few garrisons were stationed, Lu Wu was not afraid of Ju State attacking that enclave.

There is no national boundary in the current era. Cross-border advancement is a normal state. Once the Ju Kingdom dares to swallow up the enclave of Lu Wu, Lu Wu dares to send troops from all over the country to ravage Ju Kingdom.

Of course, times have changed, and some standards will inevitably change with each other. It is impossible to say that the national borders will be available soon?

Lu Wu set up a line for Wu and Jimizhou in the Bank of China, and was only exerting his influence, and would also involve Lai State later to curb Qi State, which was carrying out reforms.

Because the Qi army and the Jin army were tied, they had actually attracted the attention of the princes.

When the countries learned that Qi was reforming, they thought of Zheng, which had been changed due to the reform.

What made the princes depressed was that Zheng State had no time to let everyone see how much gain the reform would have. They were eager to see what the reform would be like, waiting to learn from it.

Lai, which had been destroyed once by Qi, definitely hopes to form a gang with Xun and Ju. Xun and Lai are not bound by Lai. Just look at whether Ju is willing to accept it.

On this day, Lu Wugang went to visit Emperor Zhou and returned to his camp to learn that Han Qi had been waiting for a while.

After thinking about it, Lu Wusi was a little confused about what Han Qi was doing for him, so he simply stopped doing too much and wanted to see him.

"Han Hou." Han Qi was not forced to call him at all.

Lu Wu did not emphasize that according to the previous communication methods, he didn't care. Han Qi would be extremely awkward and would challenge etiquette and law.

"Yuan Rong." Lu Wu returned the favor.

The two took their seats separately.

Han Qi saluted again and said, "I came here this time to ask for advice."

Lu Wu was stunned for a moment.

Ask for advice? How to make Jin stronger again, or how did Han swallow Jin?

If you ask how to make Jin State great again, it is not obvious that it is there.

Which country's powerful process can reduce nutrients? It means that it is inevitable to expand territorially or economically.

In the feudal era, 99% of expansion was to use force to annex other countries, and the economy was more likely to tap its own potential.

Now Jin State is bound to be strictly controlled by Han State, Fan State and Xun State. Jin State cannot avoid expansion.

"Marquis of Han must know my intention to stay in the country?" Han Qi asked first with a very risky question.

If Lu Wu says "I don't know" at this time, it means that Han Qi reveals his ambitions and will be pinched by Lu Wu.

Lu Wu made the trade-offs in a very short time and nodded silently.

This made Han Qi more embarrassed. Should he know or seduce the words to make it clearer?

Seeing Han Qi's face full of confusion, Lu Wu finally spoke, "I, Fan Hou, and Xun Bo have all been awarded the title for their merits. How can you replace Jin?"

Therefore, the Han State, Fan State and Xun State were a peaceful way to divide the family, not a fierce way to split Jin State as a traitor.

What kind of way should Han Qi annex Jin State be?

Another point is, why does Han Qi think that Lu Wu would wait and see the Han family annex the Jin State and not interfere to get a share of the pie?

"I think the great world should change, and in the future, the princes will attack each other, and the strong and weak countries will be annexed." Han Qi stopped and looked at Lu Wu.

Lu Wu hesitated and nodded in recognition of Han Qi's speculation.

Han Qi said again: "You are famous in the country, but the Jin Office is powerless to stop it. If the Jin Office has a day of revival..."

It was useless to just say this, Lu Wu was worried at all. As for what Shi Yi and Wu from the Central Bank were their own ideas.

Lu Wu said: "I guess you have searched for Fan Hou and Xun Bo."

Han Qi said: "Not yet."

It's not there yet, so it doesn't mean you won't go looking for it.

Lu Wu began to look at Han Qi with a playful look, wondering whether he had ignored this little brother before and did not find that he was very smart.

What's the meaning?

It is Han Qi who knew very well that the Han family could not monopolize the existing Jin legacy and hoped to pay the price to gain external support to some extent.

And Han Qi will definitely go to Shiyi and Zhongxing Wu to form a four-way game.

This is the reason why the more participants, the greater the external mutual restraint.

It is very likely that it will become Lu Wu. Shi Yi and Wu from the Bank of China did not want to take Han Qi to play together. The three families first fooled the Han family, and waited for the Han family to make a big move, and then shared the remaining Jin city together.

Now Han Qi is taking risks, and this risk must be taken.

The reason is that the Han family wants to swallow Jin. Once there is any action, there will inevitably be a big change, attracting the attention of Han, Fan and Xun. It is equivalent to being unable to avoid it at all.

Therefore, it is impossible to bypass it. Han Qi simply lifted the lid of the pot by himself, expressed his intention to obtain support from the three companies, or test the attitude of the three companies, to know himself and his enemy and act well, and to create a situation of checks and balances to ensure that Han's interests can be maximized.

Lu Wu said bluntly: "You are taking risks."

Han Qi looked depressed.

Sometimes some risks must be taken. If you don’t have the courage to take risks, how can you be a noble?

Have you heard of it? Those who starve to death and those who are brave to death.

Only a few generations of the Han family were timid, especially the generation of Han Jue who made Han Qi so uncomfortable.

Lu Wu seemed to be focusing on chatting with Han Qi, but his mind was repeatedly weighing the trade-offs.

He worked hard and took advantage of the situation to complete the great cause of founding a country calmly.

Obtaining the qualification to establish a country because of its contribution is not a historical precedent. There are many such examples throughout the Zhou Dynasty, including the founders separating cities from a certain country.

What Han Qi wants to do is replace it as a minister. Whether or not he works in Chengdu, it will be destined to be famous in history and will be infamous.

Is it possible for the Han family to succeed? With the current situation of Jin State and the help of external forces, it is almost certain that it will be successful.

Lu Wu thought inexplicably: "Good guy, it's hard to say whether Tian can succeed. Is Han going to be the founder of the usurper?"
