Chapter 57: Unstable Army
He killed hundreds of ministers at once, even the king of Jie and Zhou had never done anything. It can be said that it was earth-shaking. It would be impossible to ask a group of ministers not to vent their anger on King Kaoli.
"Let's go." King Kaoli of Chu hurriedly stopped the ministers from leaving and asked, "What did you say to kill hundreds of ministers? Why don't I understand?"
Since he learned that Fu Chu was the seed of Chunshen Jun, King Kaoliui almost got angry to death. He was either in a daze or cursing, and he had no intention of paying attention to the ministers and not the ministers. These ministers came and cursed and accused him of killing hundreds of ministers. How could he not be confused?
"Oh, you are a foolish monarch. You have killed hundreds of ministers and pretended to be so pretentious. You think our eyes are blind and you let you turn black and white."
"That's right, even the king of Jie and Zhou has never done anything to kill hundreds of ministers at once. You are better. Not only have you done it, but you dare not admit it. You are pretending to be hateful and annoying, and your heart is punished!"
"I have seen a shameless person, but I have never seen such a shameless person! Even a tyrant like Jie and Zhou dares to admit it even if the murderous ministers are killed. You, a fool, dare not admit it. It's too shameless! It's too shameless!"
It would be fine if King Kaolii didn't ask, but his question was even more amazing. The ministers pointed at him and scolded him even more fiercely.
Listening to the scolding of the ministers, King Chu Kaoli finally understood and exclaimed: "I have never done it, but I have never done it! How amazing it is to kill hundreds of ministers. Even if I am crazy, I will not do this."
King Kaoli Chu felt heartbroken, as if he was sure that he was not doing it. The ministers were quite unsure and asked, "You really haven't done it?"
"Since I learned about usurping the country, I have been here and have not issued a decree. How could I kill the ministers?" King Kaoliui was almost vomiting blood.
Can he not be depressed if he was shot while lying down?
"I really haven't done it?" The ministers still didn't believe it.
"The army of tigers and wolves in Qin is approaching. At present, the Great Chu should focus on stability. If hundreds of ministers are killed, will the Great Chu not be in chaos?" King Kaoli of Chu was really helpless. If these ministers could not believe that he did not kill the ministers, then they left in anger and the entire Chu State would not be in chaos?
Once these ministers left, no one would deal with the state affairs. It would be impossible to make the Chu State unrest, and King Kaoli of Chu had to hurry.
King Kaolii's words were reasonable and very reasonable, and the ministers couldn't help but believe it.
"The emperor, the ministers and others are rude, so I ask the emperor to punish me." The ministers looked at each other and soon reached an agreement. They believed that King Kaolie Chu was innocent and had to apologize.
"Forget it, you are also for the good of the Great Chu." King Kaoli of Chu was not in the mood to punish the rude crimes of his ministers at this time, and said, "Tell me, which ministers have been killed?"
"Your Majesty, this is amazing. Qu Jingzhao's three clans were killed." A minister hurriedly said.
"What? Qu Jingzhao's three clans were killed?" King Chu Kaoli was shocked. Then he thought about it and was happy again.
The three families of Qu Jingzhao are the three major families of Chu. They have a large number of fiefs and are extremely powerful and can compete with the royal family. The Chu royal family had wanted to move them for a long time, but they were afraid to take action. Now, although the killing of these three families was shocking, it made King Kaoli happy. The things that the Chu royal family had always wanted to do but had not done were finally done. He only needed to make good use of them to uproot the three families of Qu Jingzhao.
"Master, Xiang Liang, the son of the General, was also killed." Some minister was frightened and said, "Once the General knows about this, the consequences will be unpredictable."
"What are you saying? The son of the general was killed?" King Kaoli stretched out his hands, grabbed the minister's clothes, and roared hard. The roar was louder than thunder.
"Yes, Lord. This is still being killed in the name of Lord. It is said that the general wants to gain troops and respect himself, and wants to break the ground in the Huai River and the king." The minister hurriedly reported.
"It's over! It's over! The Great Chu is over!" King Kaoli let go of the minister, his body trembled and he was in a state of despair.
Xiang Yan holds an army of 960,000. Once his son is killed, can he give up? Once Xiang Yan causes trouble, what can King Kaollie of Chu use to resist?
You should know that even if the 960,000 army is not all the forces of Chu, it is almost eight out of ten. If Xiang Yan is in chaos, King Kaoli Chu will not have the power to suppress him, and it will be impossible for King Kaoli Chu to be scared and brave.
Not to mention, the murder of Xiang Liang and Xiang Bo was carried out in the name of King Kaoli of Chu. All the charges were found, that is, Xiang Yan held his own troops and slashed the soil and gave the king.
Xiang Yan is currently holding an army of 960,000, and King Kaoliui does not have the power to check and balance. Not only do people believe this crime, but many people will believe it, even Xiang Yan himself will believe it.
"No! I have never done this before. I believe that the general will be loyal to the Great Chu." Then, King Kaoli of Chu yelled again.
"This must be done by the Tiger and Wolf Qin State. Yes, it must be done by the Tiger and Wolf Qin State. Only in this way, it will be the greatest benefit to the Tiger and Wolf Qin State!" King Kaoli finally understood, but so what can it be?
"Puff!" King Chu Kaoli squirted out a mouthful of blood and fell down on his back.

The Huai River, the Qin army camp, and the central army tent.
Qin Yiren, Wang Jian and Wei Liao gathered together and were discussing major events.
"Suddenly weak, Yao Jia and the others did a good job, and the State of Chu has fallen into chaos." Qin Yiren raised his eyebrows, his face full of joy, and said with a smile.
"Yes, they did a very good job." Wang Jian did not hesitate to praise the words and said to Lu: "Especially the final assassination was carried out in a legitimate manner under the banner of the King of Chu. Not only did he kill many ministers, but he also created disagreement for the Chu court and the country."
Dun Ruo and Yao Jia had extraordinary talents. When formulating the assassination strategy, the two agreed to carry out the clan name of the King of Chu. Killing is secondary, and it is most important to create discord for the Chu government and the opposition. At the same time, they also spread rumors to guide them. In this way, it would be impossible to avoid chaos in the Chu State.
"Rumors, exposing the usurpation of the country, assassination, and spreading rumors, are so terrifying! Incredible!" Wei Liao pointed his head and sighed very much.
"When the news of the chaos in Chu State reached the Chu army, the morale of the Chu army must be unstable. At that time, it will be time for us to attack." Qin Yiren smiled extremely happily.
The State of Chu is the biggest hurdle on the road to unification of Qin. If Qin cannot overcome it, it will be impossible to unify China. Only by overcoming this hurdle can Qin achieve the great cause of unification. Now, seeing this hurdle is about to pass, even if it depends on the nature of Qin Yiren, there are still bursts of joy.
"Your Majesty, I think that we will first spread rumors among the Chu army to shake the morale of the army, and then assassinate them, which will be effective." Wang Jian's eyes flashed and he hurriedly came up with ideas.
"Yes! I agree." Wei Liao blurted out.
"Well, General is right, this should be done. The General is right." Qin Yiren agreed happily.
The three tribes of Qu Jingzhao were killed, including the clan leader, which would make the soldiers of Qu Jingzhao unstable; Xiang Yan's sons Xiang Liang and Xiang Bo were killed, which would make Xiang Yan furious. It is unknown how he made a decision, which would definitely shake the morale of the Xiang family's soldiers; Chunshen Jun committed the crime of usurping the country, and Huang's soldiers would definitely be unreliable.
As a result, the soldiers of Qu Jingzhao and Huang Xiang's five major families were unstable. This means that the army of 500,000 was gone, accounting for more than half of the Chu troops sent this time. How beneficial is this to Qin.
The Chu ministers were killed hundreds of people. The news spread to the army. As long as Qin makes good use of it, it will make the Chu State's army unstable, because this incident shows that King Kaoli Chu was cruel and unkind, and he was a foolish monarch. Who would work for him?
In this way, the morale of the entire Chu army was unstable. If you assassinate again, the Chu army would be almost the same even if it did not collapse. At that time, the Qin army would take advantage of the situation to attack and the Chu army would be defeated.

Chu army camp, in the central army tent.
Xiang Yan is dealing with official business and looks focused.
At this moment, the sound of rapid footsteps sounded. Xiang Chao came in with a happy face and said happily to Xiang Yan: "Father, happy event, happy event, great event."
"What happy event?" Xiang Yan raised her head and asked.
"Father, Huang Xie usurped the country and was being chased by the emperor." Xiang Chao almost sang it.
"Take it seriously?" Xiang Yan raised his eyebrows, was surprised and a little disbelief.
Everyone knows that Chunshen Jun is the best friend of King Kaoli of Chu. They have shared hardships together. It is really difficult to ask Xiang Yan to believe that Chunshen Jun will do such things.
Xiang Chao said the news he received and said with a smile: "Father, the 100,000 soldiers of the Huang family are in the army. Our Xiang family must not miss this opportunity. As long as we, the Xiang family, subdued these 100,000 soldiers, will gain infinite benefits at that time. Even if we cannot have all the fiefs of the Huang family, we will have a large part of it.
For the aristocratic families, the most important thing is not fiefdom, but army. As long as you master the army, you will not have to worry about not having fiefdom. The 100,000 soldiers of the Huang family are under Xiang Yan's command. This is a good opportunity for the Xiang family to control the Huang family's soldiers. Xiang Yan nodded immediately and said, "This is not difficult. The Huang family has no talent. For his father, he can easily take these 100,000 soldiers."
If you master these 100,000 Huang's soldiers, you will be able to obtain many Huang's fiefs. Then, the Xiang family will jump into the largest family of Chu. Going further, replacing the Chu royal family Mi family and becoming the royal family of Chu, the prospect is too wonderful - it will be impossible for Xiang Yan to be unmoved.
"General, it's not good, it's not good. News came from Yingdu that Qu Jingzhao's three clans were killed." At this moment, a confidant soldier came in to report.
"What? Qu Jingzhao's three clans were killed?" Xiang Chao's face changed drastically, and he was surprised: "No! The soldiers of the three clans must be shaken."
"It's okay." Xiang Yan didn't care and said, "It's good. I happened to use my means to subdue the soldiers of the three clans and use them for my Xiang clan."
The execution of the three clans of Qu Jingzhao was a good opportunity to annex the soldiers of the three clans, and Xiang Yan certainly would not let it go.
"It's still my father's cleverness." Xiang Chao was reminded by Xiang Yan, and immediately woke up and was very happy.
Chunshen Jun was wanted, Qu Jingzhao's three clans were killed, and only the Xiang family was left in the five major families of Chu. This was a good opportunity for Xiang Shi to grow. If he seized it, the Xiang family would likely replace the Mi family and become the royal clan of Chu. Xiang Yan's eyes were full of enthusiasm.
However, at this moment, another confidant soldier came in to report: "General, the big things are not going well, the big things are not going well. The young master Xiang Liang Xiang Bo was killed."
"What?" Xiang Yan roared, like a thunderclap.
"Young son Xiang Liang and Xiang Bo were killed." This confidant soldier hurriedly affirmed.
"My son!" Xiang Yan exclaimed sadly, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and she fell on her back.
