The afternoon homework was pushed away by Xiong Jing. Nanyang, Jianghan, Daliang, Huaibei, Jianghuai, Jinling, Kuaiji..., his black eyes kept turning, and these cities seemed to be engraved in his mind.

Naojiu also stared at the map in front of him. From a military perspective, he felt that the king's Magu offensive would inevitably fail. South Korea would definitely take advantage of the pressure of Qin and even send troops to form a coalition with Qin to fight with the Chu army together.

The world is either a unity or a unity. But if the Chu State is unity and unity, let alone the alliance, it will cause the Chu State to lose the opportunity to implement the new policy (or reform). What if the Zhao State sold the coalition forces like the last time? Previously, Zhao State could have been coupled with Lu Buwei, but could he not be coupled with the Qin King?

Qin attacked Chu with one sword, and after the Chu people suffered, they were full of hatred; Qin attacked the Three Jins by Lingchi, and this year captured two cities and next year, and in decades, the Three Jins were ravaged by Qin so that they were only afraid but not hatred: Han would betray Wei for himself; Wei would expel and kill the prime minister to please Fan Sui; Zhao State began to completely compromise with Qin after Zhao Xiaocheng's death, and the court began to completely compromise with Qin. Under such a background, Lian Po would inevitably run to Wei. "Three arrows for one meal" and "Liang Po is old" was just a saying to Zhao State to appease the war faction.

In this situation, He Zong will definitely sell out and scatter. Attacking Qin is not the point, but the key is who will Qin State take revenge after He Zong. In the last round, Wei Zeng, the King of Wei who admired Xinling Jun, was deceived, and He Zong was deceived again.

Similarly, it is okay for Chu to be safe, and the Magu offensive will only attract siege from all over the country. Defend Qi and Wei. How can the Chu army, which is already at a disadvantage in number, face the Qin, Han and Wei coalition forces that already have numerical advantages? But if they do not attack Qin, they will give up Huaibei and retreat to Jiangdong...

The cunning eyes swept across Huaibei and finally landed in Daliang. Before Zhao destroyed the country, Han and Wei generals were loyal to Qin. They hoped that the Qin army would attack other countries without attacking themselves. If Zhao was destroyed and Chu did not provoke Qin, Han and Wei, who were confidant, would immediately change their position and win over Chu to help him resist Qin. At that time, what Chu had to do was to help Wei defend Daliang.

The beam connecting the Yellow River and converging waters is the first line of defense; each town in the Huai River is the second line of defense, the king said that Jianghuai is the third line of defense, and the last is the North Vietnamese-Zhenze defense line. This strategic arrangement is the most reasonable. The Magu offensive will undoubtedly undermine this defensive order, but if the Magu offensive is properly, it will alleviate the pressure on Zhao State, delay the demise of Zhao State, and can also regain the Chu people in the old land of Ying, boost the morale of the Chu army, and give courage to Han and Wei countries.

Naojiu usually has a lot of time to stare at the map of Chu, and dozens of strategists under him are also staring at the map of Chu. Seeing him staring at Daliang, Xiong Jing asked, "Naoqing thinks he can still join the throne?"

Xiong Jing obviously had a wrong idea, but Naojiu replied seriously: "Unless our Chu army can defeat Qin alone, after the Qin army was defeated, the countries would join forces to attack Qin every few years, otherwise there would be no hope of joining the country."

"That's true." Xiong Jing thought of the coalition forces watching the battle of Julu. Although it was decades later, the last time such signs of Hezong were already very obvious. "The Three Jins were afraid of being beaten by the Qin people. If our Chu army could not defeat the Qin army alone, Hezong would have no hope."

"I think the place where we are defending should be Daliang." Naojiu explained. "I think if our army attacks from Magu, the countries in the whole country will rise up and attack us. Han and Wei will not divide Nanyang County with me."

"Yeah?" Xiong Jing finally realized his wishful thinking. Since Han and Wei could not truly unite, how could they dare to unite with Chu to divide the Nanyang County of Qin? In this way, the Magu that he had worked hard to get is worthless.

"However, if our army is unstoppable, it may save Zhao State from survival." Naojiu was stunned when he saw the king, and then said the negative reason. "If Zhao State does not perish, Han and Wei State will not perish, it is just our Chu State..."

"But my Chu State will be attacked by Qin, Han, Wei and Qi?" Xiong Jing helped him say the following words.

"The king is wise." Nao said, "The world's situation is either a united state or a united state. If our Chu army cannot defeat Qin alone, it will be attacked by Qin afterwards. If we do not attack Qin, we can only watch the Three Jins fall, and if we attack Qin, we will be besieged by various countries."

"Time is the key." Xiong Jing had already figured out this point. "He Zong, it seems that there are many people and many powers, but in fact there is no chance of victory. Our Chu army cannot defeat Qin alone; let all countries join forces, and the Chu army may be able to fight with the Qin army ten years later. Although Lian Heng is crowded, Han and Wei do not really attack outside Qi. They just don't want Qin to attack them."

"King, ten years later, the Chu army will become stronger, so can Qin State not become stronger?" Naoji asked with a smile. This was an extremely slight rebuttal. Ten years later, even if Zhao State still existed, most of the territory would be Qin State. At that time, the Zhao army might be Qin State.

"The enemy is getting worse day by day, and we are getting better day by day." Xiong Jing said a great sentence, then sat down with his head and stroked his head.

"The villain Bai Yi, Xian Dui, Yi Zan, Kong Xiang, Wei Liao pay homage to the king." The next morning, Bai Yi and others were taken into the palace by the carriage. After waiting for several months, they finally met the King of Chu as they wished and had breakfast with the King of Chu.

"No gift." After the court was over, Xiong Jing, who was going to inspect the prefecture, could only meet these people in this way. "Let's talk while eating."

The fried dough sticks were not fried at all like later generations, but they were barely ate. After Xiong Jing was eating, he took a hard bite and drank a large sip of soy milk. He did this, and Bai Yi and others followed him. They had never eaten fried dough sticks or drank soy milk.

"How long can Wei last if the Qin army attacked Wei but Zhao Chu did not rescue him?" Xiong Jing asked without mentioning the word "六".

"The villain... The villain thought that with the king's wisdom, the Kingdom of Wei would be saved." Bai Yi was the leader of everyone, and he was responsible for answering.

"Oh." Xiong Jing smiled and continued to chew fried dough sticks. "Wei and Qin were in a slew together. They only attacked our Chu last year. Maybe they will attack me in the future. Why should I save you?"

"The king should know that Wei is destroyed and Chu is cold. If Qin State gets Daliang, the Qin army entering Chu will no longer be 240,000, but one million." Bai Yi said exaggeratedly. "A million Qin troops will be irresistible in any country in the world."

"If Wei State attacked our Chu State again, it would rather fight with millions of Qin troops than save Wei." Xiong Jing looked serious after eating a fried dough stick. "The Chu people can be killed, but not insulted. Rescuing the evil-prone Wei State is insulting the soldiers of the Chu army."

"The king is wrong." Bai Yi was silent, and Wei Liao suddenly spoke. "I heard that: ancient times advocate virtue, the ancient times chased wisdom, and the current world competed for strength. Wei State's help to Qin attack Chu was not what the King of Wei wanted, but was forced by the Qin people. The king did not save Wei to increase his strength, but allowed Qin to attack it. This is wrong. If Daliang was obtained by Qin, the Qin army could go to Ying along the river. One million or one was not true, and a 500,000 army would have it."

"You are talking about profit and harm, and not honest is talking about principles." Wei Liao, who was dressed in white, was very young and handsome, and his strong bookish spirit made people feel more favorable. Xiong Jing looked at him and forgot what he called for for a moment. "If you only care about profit and harm but do not adhere to principles, how can people believe in it? For example, what if you borrow money from mother and child without paying it back?"

"The wealth of Chu State is known to everyone in the world. How could the king... how could he borrow it but not return it?" Xiandui laughed with her.

"It is beneficial to the State of Chu? Why should I return it if I borrow it without returning it?" Xiong Jing attacked Zi's shield with his spear, and the fried dough sticks squeaked.

"If the king borrows it but does not return it, no one in the world will dare to borrow money from Chu." Bai Yi did not understand the King of Chu's intentions, so he had to discuss the matter.

"If Wei State was destroyed by Qin State, where can you hide the gold? Could you lend it to the King of Qin?" Xiong Jing asked with a smile.

"The king's intention is not understood." Bai Yi decided not to go around in circles and wanted to talk to each other bluntly.

"I mean, if Wei and Qin attack Chu again, Chu will not save Wei in the future. This is the principle; if you are willing to lend gold to Chu, Wei will be destroyed by Qin in the future, and the unscrupulous state will surely ensure the safety of your personal and property. If you make a contribution, you can treat him with courtesy." Xiong Jing told him frankly, and these words made Yi Zan and others happy.

"The world is chaotic, even if there is 100,000 gold, what if there is a good bird? Like a good bird, you should choose wood to live in it. Qin is the largest in the world, but Qin will treat merchants with courtesy? Everyone knows that Qin is the most evil merchants. Beyond Qin, the Three Jins must not live in it, but Qi and Chu can live in it. Now, the unspoken one-fifth son money and allow you to live in the Chu State, why not do it?"

He has always been a foreign minister who lobbies for the king, but now he is the king who lobbies for the foreign minister. Xian Dui, who has been persuaded by Xiong Jing's words, was about to agree, but Bai Yi took the lead and said: "Dare you ask the king, if Wei State is destroyed, can Chu State reject the Qin people?"

"This is natural." Xiong Jing nodded.

"I dare to ask the king, the Chu state's households are only 600,000 and the armored soldiers are only 400,000. Why should we reject Qin?" Wei Liao asked afterwards.

"There is one of the four countries, Han, Wei, Zhao, Qi, and all are inferior to Chu, and that is in depth." Xiong Jing finally finished drinking soy milk.

"Deep?" Wei Liao read military books well. Although the depth is modern, he can understand one or two.

"It is the depth." Xiong Jing said. "If the Chu State is defeated in Huaibei, you can retreat to Huainan. If the Huainan is defeated, you can retreat to Jiangdong. If the Jiangdong is defeated, you can retreat to the South China Sea. Han, Wei, Zhao and Qi have no depth, and the city is destroyed, the country will be destroyed. If you keep huge gold in these four countries, you will only benefit Qin in the end. If the Qin State is preserved, if the Qin King will give the country a summons to exchange for Qin half a liang, what can you do?

Furthermore, the Chu State will be able to go into the water next year. The nine states in the world are just one corner of the east of Zhongzhou. There is still the Tianzhu Kingdom in the south of Zhongzhou, with a 10 million Dingkou. There are also the Mediterranean countries in the west of Zhongzhou. The Dingkou is twice as high as today. Instead of being a local merchant, it is better to be a sea merchant. This dragonfly eye..." Xiong Jing took out a colorful glass bead, which is a jewelry that is often found in nobles from all countries. "In the countries in Xizhou, it is only worth a hundred coins, and the cheapest ones transported to the nine states in the world can also sell a few gold; while the hundreds of coins of plain silk in the world can be worth a few gold, and the supply is in short supply. You are all big merchants in the world, so you should know the amount of this profit."
