越国 / Yue State
越国 / Yue State appears in 《资治通鉴·周纪》28丨韩昭侯的快乐你想象不到 through 越王无疆’s failed anti-齐国 move and 楚国’s later pressure. The episode uses Yue to keep chronology precise: the 334 BCE cluster includes Yue’s failed campaign and Chu’s defeat of Yue, but not Yue’s final extinction.
The page is source-scoped. Its role is to prevent the wiki from collapsing a damaging defeat, a later Chu victory, and the eventual destruction of Yue into one event.
《资治通鉴·周纪》57丨古代发毒誓还有这作用？ adds the earlier Spring-and-Autumn Yue branch through 越王勾践. In 子贡 / 端木赐’s rescue chain, Yue appears submissive to 吴国 while waiting for 吴王夫差 to exhaust Wu against 齐国 and 晋国. Yue then attacks Wu and destroys it, before the episode turns to the danger facing 范蠡 and 文种 after victory.
