"The opportunity to attack the Yue Kingdom is once in a blue moon. If we delay, we may leave more opportunities for the Yue Kingdom." Xiong Wuliang said.
Zilan and Qu Ping had a dispute, which did not surprise Xiong Wuliang.
The war before us will undoubtedly be a war that will destroy the country.
No matter who leads the army, it is conceivable that they will leave a heavy mark in history.
Taking a step back, even from the most utilitarian point of view, the commander of the army is very likely to be awarded the title of marquis and prime minister based on the solid achievement of destroying Yue.
Although the Yue Kingdom is wild and barbaric, it still has a land thousands of miles away - it is not an insignificant small country.
Moreover...the current civil strife in Vietnam continues, and they are at war with each other, and there is also a leading party who aspires to the 'King's Division' of the Chu Kingdom...
The odds of winning are great!
The dispute between the two factions is inevitable, but we still hope that King Chu Huai can make a decision as soon as possible!
After all, Qianbubu in Xiong Wuliang's fiefdom has been put on standby, and he is gearing up to earn a big fortune with Xiong Wuliang.
A moment later, a chamberlain hurried into the palace gate and whispered a few words into the prince's ear.
Prince Mi Heng's eyes widened and he glanced at Xiong Wuliang in disbelief.
"Brother Wang, you are right again!"
"My father has decided to appoint Qu Ping as general and command an army of 150,000 to march into the Yue Kingdom!"
Huang Xie, who was behind the prince, had his eyes widened!
Xiong Wu was lucky again!
what happened!
Even I, a child prodigy, may not have such accurate predictions!
Is it true that there are those who are born with knowledge and are evil?
Xiong Wuliang smiled and said, "It's just as I expected."
In the Chu State, excluding the private military branches owned by various nobles, there were approximately more than 300,000 soldiers affiliated with the imperial court.
Then exclude the soldiers stationed in various important towns and the Chu troops stationed at the border.
Fifteen thousand people are probably all the troops that Chu State can dispatch at the moment.
It seems that although King Huai of Chu has always been indecisive, he also knows the truth that "a lion must fight a rabbit with all his strength".
The prince sighed in admiration——
"Brother Wang really knows what will happen."
"You will definitely be my humerus minister in the future!"
Seeing the prince's convinced look, Huang Xie felt very uncomfortable.
As a close confidant of the prince, Huang Xie felt uncomfortable that Xiong Wuliang was so favored!
After all, he is a young man. Huang Xie snorted softly: "Qu Yangjun is indeed extraordinary, but the prediction by the prince that King Qin Wu died suddenly, I don't know when it will come true."
Xiong Wuliang smiled.
young man,
Just wait to be slapped in the face.
Just when Xiong Wuliang was about to speak, the chamberlain raised his hands to Xiong Wuliang and said, "Is this Mr. Jun Wuliang of Quyang? Dr. Sanlu asked someone to deliver a message and asked you to come to the house to talk about it."
Doctor Sanlu?
Qu Yuan?
…
Xiong Wuliang confessed to the prince and took Zhong Hua straight to Qu Yuan's mansion.
Although Qu Yuan has been demoted to Sanlu doctor by the King of Chu, and his status seems to have been greatly reduced-but this famous official has not been far away from the center of power.
Qu Yuan and a group of reformist ministers who supported the reform to resist Qin were still active in the court and were an important political force in the Chu state.
Qu Yuan's mansion is similar to the Quyang Jun Mansion that Xiong Wei left behind - although it is large in area, it has no high-end facilities.
Walking into the gate of the mansion, there are indeed many vehicles parked on the horse racing field, and the hurried pace of the crowns and ribbons coming and going shows that this minister of Chu State is still prominent.
Under the guidance of the housekeeper, Xiong Wuliang walked straight into Qu Yuan's study.
Qu Yuan raised his head, with wrinkles on his forehead rising high - although he looked tired, his mental state was surprisingly good.
"Qu Yangjun, please sit down quickly." Qu Yuan smiled gently.
Even Xiong Wuliang was a little surprised by the courtesy he received - this Sanlv doctor had always been famous for his tough tactics and fierce words, but he didn't expect to be so polite to him.
"I haven't seen him for a long time since the first debate in the Political Palace." Qu Yuan seemed to be in a good mood.
"The current king is working hard to govern, employing new ministers, training troops to serve the Qin Dynasty, and is determined to take back Hanzhong and avenge his humiliation."
"Talk about it carefully, you have a lot of credit for this." Qu Yuan said with a smile.
If it weren't for Xiong Wuliang's words, King Huai of Chu might not have been so determined to resist Qin.
Xiong Wuliang didn't dare to say anything. After the two exchanged a few words, they soon talked about the current war.
"...General Qu Ping will definitely be able to defeat Yue!" Xiong Wuliang boasted.
Qu Yuan's lips curled up slightly - Qu Yuan was also very proud of his clan brother.
Being able to win the power to attack Yue this time is undoubtedly a victory for Qu Yuan's faction - if they can really win this battle and swallow up thousands of miles of Yue, then Zhaoju's faction will have to lie dormant for a while.
"I heard that Qu Yangjun annihilated a group of thieves in the fiefdom. Their name was the 'Shaohu Bandits'. I wonder if this is true?" Qu Yuan suddenly changed the subject.
Xiong Wuliang was startled.
Logically speaking, thousands of thieves are not a big problem. How come even Qu Yuan knew about it?
Qu Yuan smiled and said: "Prince Mi Heng publicized the battle to annihilate the Shaohu pirates so much that even the king knew about it."
"With a mere three hundred men against an enemy of more than a thousand, we not only won the battle, but also wiped out all the enemy bandits."
"Young master Wu Liang is young and promising, and he is very capable of commanding!"
Even with Xiong Wuliang's thick skin, his face felt a little feverish at this moment: "I don't dare to take it, I don't dare to take it..."
Qu Yuan smiled slightly: "The attack is imminent and Quyang County is close to the border. It is of great significance for stabilizing the rear. Although the result of wiping out a thousand bandits is not great, it can be said to be a great achievement at this juncture!"
"Presumably, the king's reward will arrive soon!"
Xiong Wuliang was delighted when he heard this.
The reward for him is not too much.
Quyang County is undergoing vigorous development and construction, and every detail requires financial support.
The more principal you can invest, the better.
If the state of Chu had a bank at this time, Xiong Wuliang would even want to use his title of Qu Yangjun for a loan.
Qu Yuan smiled mysteriously: "In the battle against Yue, the prince is likely to be trained by the king, and he may become a general!"
Xiong Wuliang was dumbfounded.
When it comes to this, no matter how stupid you are, you can hear it clearly - Qu Yuan is reminding himself to be prepared.
Regarding this offensive against Vietnam, Xiong Wuliang originally wanted to survive and instruct his subordinates to make a quick buck and take back the fiefdom for construction.
But now...
King Chu Huai has always wanted to cultivate himself well, but now it seems that he can't escape.
Xiong Wuliang smiled bitterly: "Junior thanks Dr. Sanlu for the reminder..."
Qu Yuan smiled slightly. He still had a good impression of this young man who was known as a playboy in Yingdu.
Xiong Wei was also a famous anti-Qin faction at the time, and he had always been sympathetic to Qu Yuan. In addition, the young master Xiong Wuliang was also a die-hard anti-Qin faction, and Qu Yuan also wanted to take care of the son of his old friend.
As he spoke, the concierge came in and announced: "Master, General Jin of the Forbidden Army is here."
Qu Yuan smiled again: "Whatever you say."
