Summoning the world to be one

Chapter 456 Reaction of the Parties
Chapter 455: Responses from all parties
In the 23rd year of Qianyuan, on the first day of June, Zhang Di, the great general of Chu State, passed away. Zhang Di's death symbolized that the competitiveness of Chu State in the whole world declined again. After all, Zhang Di was the last person of Chu State in the list of famous generals in the world. Yes, even though the old list of world famous generals is of little use at this time, and Zhang Di didn't even rank in the top ten back then, but as the only remaining veteran famous general in the world, Zhang Di's death is more of a symbol.

In the 23rd year of Qianyuan, on the seventh day of June, as Zhang Di's funeral was grandly held in Pengcheng, the news of Zhang Di's death spread throughout the world in an instant, and Deng Guo, who was an ally, knew it immediately.

"Zhang Di is dead, and there are not many old friends left in Peicheng!" Yue Fei and Han Qing sat opposite each other in the Governor's Mansion of the Great General of Wancheng. At the beginning, Yue Fei, Han Qing, and Zhang Di were all well-known generals of the Eastern Army, but at the beginning, Zhang Di was still above Yue Fei, and Han Qing, who was sitting opposite Yue Fei, was the commander of the Allied Army, but things have changed. Fifteen years have passed. The famous generals in the Eastern Army, such as Long Chuan and He Jiong, have passed away, while in the Western Army, Zhao Xin, Zhou Shen, Pang Lang, etc. are no longer alive.

In fact, Han Qing was even more emotional about Zhang Di's death. From the very beginning, Qi State, which Han Qing worked for, was an ally of Chu State. Han Qing also had many contacts with Long Chuan and Zhang Di. Di has also fought many times on the battlefield. It can be said that in the entire Chu Kingdom, apart from the capricious Long Chuan, Zhang Di is the only one who can fall into the eyes of Han Qing.

"Zhang Di is dead, Chu State should also be finished!" After thinking for a long time, Han Qing expressed such emotion. Han Qing believed that, as the last pillar of Chu State, once Zhang Di died, Chu State would not be far from the day of collapse.

Yue Fei also agrees with Han Qing's point of view, and said: "General Han is right. Once Zhang Di dies, Chu will no longer have anyone who can stand up to all the countries in the world. I will not hide it from General Han. Not long ago, Su Shangshu came to look for this general, and he told this general that during this period of time, the state of Zhao has been making frequent moves and its soldiers and horses have been mobilized everywhere, but the people of Mingjing discovered that a large number of elites of the state of Zhao have gathered in the Central Plains!"

After Han Qing heard this, he frowned and said: "Although Xin Zhao is dead, Zhao Guo is still a hundred-footed insect who is dead but not stiff. Zhao Guo’s only my Great Deng, but Zhao Guo was defeated by our army in the Central Plains a year ago, and captured three counties of Zhao Guo in a row. The goal of the country is obvious, and that is the Chu country."

Yue Fei nodded and said: "This general and Su Shangshu also think so, and Li Rubing chose the right time, because Zhang Di has just passed away, and some turmoil in Chu State is inevitable, Zhao State sent troops at this time, The state of Chu must be hard to resist, although Li Rubing may not have known the news of Zhang Di's serious illness at the beginning, but just in time, such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was met by him, it's a matter of time and fate!"

Yue Fei also said with emotion that Zhao Guo and Li Rubing really took the opportunity. After Zhang Di's death, there will inevitably be a series of power struggles in the Chu military. Zhao Jun is aggressively attacking at this time. Woolen cloth?

"General, Chu State is also my Great Deng's ally after all, and it is my Great Deng's forward position in the Central Plains to resist Zhao Guo's soldiers. If Li Rubing really attacks Chu State aggressively, I don't know how my Great Deng will make a decision?" Han Qing asked Yue Fei again, the strength comparison between Zhao and Chu is beyond doubt. If Li Rubing really aggressively attacked Chu, Chu would not be able to resist it with its current strength, and the key to Chu's survival was Regarding Deng Guo, if Deng Guo refuses to rescue Chu State, then Chu State will undoubtedly die. On the contrary, as long as Deng State abides by the covenant and sends troops to rescue Chu State, then Chu State still has a glimmer of life, and it is only a glimmer of life, because Deng Guo will never work hard for Chu and Zhao.

Yue Fei said: "As a matter of fact, I have already discussed this matter with the king and the court officials. The reason why my great Deng vigorously supported Chu State was because Zhao State was powerful, and in order to delay the confrontation with Zhao State. The arrival of Deng's arrival is to better accumulate strength, but from time to time, now that the Central Plains War, the strength comparison between my Great Deng and Zhao Guo has undergone drastic changes. Even if the country goes to war head-on, we can win the battle, and the existence of the Chu country is no longer important to my Great Deng!"

"That is to say, the king does not intend to rescue Chu State?" Although Yue Fei did not express Deng Sheng's meaning, Han Qing, who is as smart as Han Qing, can hear something from it. Chu State is no longer important to Deng State. Dispensable existence, Zhao Guo's destruction of Chu will not pose much threat to Deng Guo.

After hearing Han Qing's words, Yue Fei shook his head and said, "I don't know. Your Majesty has not yet made a clear decision on whether to rescue Chu. Besides, the fight between Zhao and Chu has not started yet. Everything is just our guess. At that time, your Majesty will have his own conclusions on how to do it, we servants only need to follow orders, and we don't need to think too much about other things!"

Although Deng Sheng's underlying intention was not to rescue Chu, Deng Sheng hadn't made a clear statement for a day, and Yue Fei wouldn't say too much.

Han Qing also understood Yue Fei's meaning, so he nodded and said: "The general understands, the general can rest assured, if the king orders, I, Han Qing, will be smashed to pieces!"

Just when Yue Fei and Han Qing were lamenting Zhang Di's death, Li Rubing in Zhao State also received the news of Zhang Di's death. The difference is that Li Rubing did not have the emotion of Yue Fei and Han Qing. Li Rubing was still just an unknown junior, and it was impossible for him to have any contact with Zhang Di. On the contrary, Li Rubing was more happy about Zhang Di's death.

As the last famous general of Chu State, Zhang Di is also very capable. Li Rubing believes that the biggest obstacle to attacking Chu State this time is Zhang Di. Now that Zhang Di is dead, the biggest obstacle preventing Zhao State from taking Chu State has also been eliminated. He wished that it would be the first day of the seventh lunar month, and he would take down the entire Chu country in one fell swoop.

However, a piece of news from Pengcheng made Li Rubing change his mind and postponed the date of dispatching troops, because after Zhang Di died, huge changes occurred in the country of Chu. has great benefits.

"General, news came from Pengcheng that after Zhang Di's funeral, the court of Chu State was arguing over who would succeed the position of General Chu State, and the Chu State military was also divided into two factions, with Jiang Zi as the leader. The general of the Chu State supported Chen Feng, while Zhang Di’s confidantes supported Yu Zilong. At first, it was just a verbal battle between the two parties, but Yu Zilong was assassinated shortly afterwards. After this incident, the conflict between the two sides began to heat up!" Kou Fei, the general in charge of intelligence, told Li Rubing about all the things that happened in Pengcheng these days.

Li Rubing was overjoyed after listening to Kou Fei's words. Zhang Di died, and the biggest obstacle for Zhao Jun's attack on Chu was eliminated, but it was not guaranteed to be smooth sailing. The rhythm of Chu State dedicating the country with his own hands.

Li Rubing smiled and said: "God helped me. It is said that the relationship between Zhang Di and the king of Chu has not been very harmonious. Now that Zhang Di is dead, the king of Chu must be eager to take back the military power. I believe that Chen Feng is the one in the heart of the king of Chu." The best candidate, but Zhang Di is not a good person. He must know that if he dies, the king of Chu will definitely attack the Zhang family, so he appointed Yu Zilong to take over after his death. In this way, the contradictions in the court of Chu will increase day by day. Now, now that Yu Zilong is assassinated, the members of the Zhang family and the Yu family will definitely think that it was the King of Chu and Chen Feng who did it, so even if the two sides do not meet each other, they will be at war!"

"General, the state of Chu is now in turmoil, and civil war may break out at any time. What should we do?" Kou Fei asked Li Rubing.

Li Rubing thought for a while, and said: "I'm afraid it's hard to get along with Yu Zilong, Chen Feng, and the king of Chu. If there is no external force, there may not be a day when they will turn their fights into friendships. If that's the case, let them first Let's fight, when they get red-eyed, Ben will go to clean up the mess!"
