Chapter 244

Xiang Yan persuaded King Chu to have his own pains.

Because from a security point of view, the capital must be moved first.

To put it ugly, can you move to Baiyue even if you can't protect Dongting from moving the capital?

The cities of Baiyue are one after another. How long will it take for the Qin army to attack them one by one?

In fact, the king of Chu was safe when entering Baiyue.

Because Baiyue was in poor mountains and rivers, and the Qin army's supply line would be exposed to the blows of the nobles in Huainan...So the Qin army had to destroy the lands of Zhao, Qu, and Jing before daring to attack Baiyue.

As a result, the negative cues, who were originally "throwing birds", took a back seat and the nobles became "throwing birds".

Chu Wang Fuchu could also use the power of the Qin army to eradicate those disobedient nobles and recruit the remnants of the nobles in a fair way, and then try to regain lost ground.

On the contrary, if you continue to stay in Shouchun, you will only end up surrounded by the Qin army, and then the Qin army can wait for the Chu army to rescue.

So Chu Jun lost all the initiative and became very passive.

So from a strategic perspective, relocation is a good suggestion.

Chu Wang Mincu was originally tempted, but was interrupted by Lord Changping and doubted Xiangyan's ability.

At this time, the king of Chu was thinking:

"This Yan vowed to keep Dongting, but who knows if what he said is true or false?"

"If he can really keep Dongting from losing...what is going on with the flooding of the beam, the fiasco of Qiancheng, and the loss of Rushui?"

"These are all miserable defeats when Xiang Yan was the commander, and every time he was in a sure-victorious posture, the ending is like this."

"What's more...Who can guarantee that this Yan has no intention of rebellion?"

"If you follow Xiang Yan to move the capital to Dongting, Dongting will not be guaranteed to retreat to Baiyue... won't you look at Xiang Yan's face when the time comes?"

In fact, the most important thing is the last point, that is, Chu Wang Bucu cannot completely believe in Xiang Yan's loyalty.

Because the King of Chu understands a little bit, in this world only profits can be trusted.

At this time, Xiang Yan was so loyal that it was because of the constraints of Zhao, Qu, Jing and other clan groups. Once Chu Wang Ningcu avoided Baiyue and became a vase...that was another matter.

However, what Xiang Yan said is right. If you don't escape, how can you survive in Shouchun?

Therefore, the king of Chu hesitated.

At this time, Mr. Changping said again:

"The king, according to the opinion of the minister..."

"The Qin army is hundreds of miles away from the supply line south of Chencheng, and the thick walls of Shouchun City will not be able to attack."

"If our army consolidates the Shouchun city defense and prepares to resist the Qin army, on the other hand, it gathers all forces to attack the Qin supply line..."

"The Qin army will not be able to attack for a long time. After a few months, they will only have to retreat."

Xiang Yan couldn't help but stared at King Chu Wang in amazement, saying:

"You must not..."

The King of Chu retorted:

"Why not?"

Xiang Yan was speechless for a while.

Although Changping Jun’s strategy sounds reasonable, the Qin army is strong but not strong enough to attack Shouchun at the same time and protect its long supply line.

Therefore, if the main force of the Chu army wandered outside to attack the Qin army's supply line, the Qin army really had only one way to retreat.

The question is how many main forces does the Chu army have?

The 300,000 troops that the king of Chu had lost a little here and a little bit, only about 150,000.

The reason for "left and right" was because Chu Jun was too confused and Xiang Yan couldn't even think about it.

If one hundred thousand or fifty thousand were left to garrison in Shouchun, then Xiang Yan could use less than one hundred thousand troops.

What role can less than 100,000 troops play in the face of those wolves and tigers?

And because of the lessons learned from the previous time, the Qin army will definitely occupy the walled city along the way to build defenses. How easy is it to attack its supply line?

If you can really unite the strength of the nobles and assemble an army of 300,000, it is indeed feasible.

However, at this time, how can the nobles still be willing to send troops to rescue King Chu...

However, Xiang Yan couldn't say this. The Zhao, Qu, Jing and other races held the power of the government and the matter had not happened yet, how could Xiang Yan assert that they would not send troops?

So Xiang Yan couldn't tell whether there was suffering.

When the king of Chu saw Xiang Yan not answering his mouth, he thought he was speechless, so he ordered:

"This plan is very good, just follow the plan!"

Lord Changping worshipped again:

"Majesty, the minister has a good understanding of the Qin army in Qin for many years."

"The minister is willing to go out of the city to dispatch troops with General Xiang to fight the Qin army."

The king of Chu is overjoyed:

"So much to the minds of many people, there is Lord Lao Changping."

Chu Wang Mincu didn't realize that he had fallen into the trap set by Lord Changping.

It is death to stay in the city, but to live out of the city.

Lord Changping was leaving the Chu King Negumi in the city to wait for his death. At that time, the great king of Chu would be the Lord Changping.

From this we can also know that Changping Jun is very powerful, but his murder is invisible and unmarked.

At the same time, he knew that if he wanted to be the great king, he had to win over Xiang Yan, who holds the military power, so he stuck Xiang Yan like a fly just after he came to court.

Mr. Changping politely bowed to Xiang Yan and said:

"The general is polite."

"Although this monarch has been in Qin for many years, he always cares about the safety of Chu's military and civilians."

"If the general has any incomprehensibility, just give it to me, this monarch should do his best to rescue Chu from distress together with the general."

On the surface, Mr. Changping said that he hoped to turn the tide with Xiang Yan, but in fact he was trying to fight against the people like sons and the people of Chu in Xiang Yan's heart.

It is very easy for Changping Jun to do this.

This is because he was already well-known as a Xiangbang when he was in Qin. Second, he led troops to rebel against Qin in Chencheng. It can even be said that he saved Chu's life at a critical moment.

These two points are enough to make everyone believe that he is a more wise gentleman than Chu Wang.

At that time, as long as Chu Wang's Chuyi had three long and two shortcomings... Then there is no need to say, it is undoubtedly that Changping Jun succeeded.

Although Xiang Yan was good at leading troops to fight, she was not good at scheming. At this time, Mr. Chang Ping said so and sighed:

"It's no wonder that Mr. Changping made such suggestions. Mr. Changping has been in Qin for many years, so he doesn't know much about the situation in Chu."

"The nobles in the Chu Kingdom are at odds with each other. They must gather their forces to attack the Qin supply line, I'm afraid..."

Mr. Changping pretended not to be surprised:

"There is such a thing... If this is the case, this lord has made a big mistake."

"Rong Benjun admonishes the great king and asks the great king to make other plans."

Turn around and walk back.

Xiang Yan hurriedly stepped forward and stopped, saying:

"The king's heart is determined, and if he persuades again at this time... Xiang Yan may be forced to move the capital."

"What's more, this plan is not impossible. Now I have to try it."

Mr. Changping hesitated and replied:

"The general is at ease, I will try my best to persuade all races to send troops."

"The world is restless, and the various races are in peace?"
