Time and space were given to the father and son. No one knew what words Zed said to Fang Fang that night to resolve the pain in a father's heart because he cruelly abandoned his son.
Early the next morning, Fang Fang, as the leader of this mission to Zhao State, went north with the elite Luo Yu; Jie still returned to the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion and consciously studied and practiced martial arts.
Lu Yan, who had endured successive psychological blows, finally got better and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the upcoming major events of the Warring States Period.
Xianyang Palace
Wang Jian, Yang Duanhe, Meng Wu, Meng Tian, Li Xin, and even Wang Bi from Lishan Camp also appeared here;
Lu Yan, Xiong Qi, Wei Zhuang, Wang Wan, Li Si, Liao and other civil servants were also prominently listed.
Ying Zheng ordered his people to pull out a huge map of the Warring States Period and spread it on the ground, walking from the land of Qin to the border of Qin and Zhao.
He stomped on a city on the border of Zhao State and said to the important ministers present: "Zhao Yan thought that because of the turmoil in the examination policy, Da Qin would dare to let the main force of the country attack Yan State, but he didn't know that this was the opportunity that I was waiting for. Everyone.
, now that the opportunity to destroy Zhao has arrived, we should speak freely and come up with a strategy to destroy Zhao."
The military generals were naturally a little excited. For example, Li Xin couldn't restrain the impulsiveness on his face. The civil servants looked at each other in confusion. Zhao Yan was right. The fact that the examination policy has not caused a big chaos for the time being does not mean that there will not be a big chaos.
Wang Wan was the first to stand up and persuaded: "Well, Your Majesty, if I send troops to attack Zhao, I can naturally catch Zhao State by surprise. But now, although Zhao State's main force of 200,000 is attacking Yan State, the number of troops left behind in the country is still considerable.
Even if I fight, I won't be able to win quickly. Now the general trend of the world has become clear. If Chu has evil intentions, we, Qin, may be in trouble."
Liao reacted very quickly, and immediately followed up and retorted: "King Xiong Han of Chu has launched a reform movement. Chaos has occurred frequently in Chu State, and the situation in the south is chaotic. He has too much time to take care of himself, how can he pose a threat to me?
Your Majesty, it is a good opportunity to destroy Zhao at this time. Although the Yan State is weak, the people of the Yan State fought so fiercely with the Zhao people on the south bank of Yishui River! The Zhao State took over a large area of land and worked hard for five years.
It cannot catch up with a tributary of our canal. Zhao's attack on Yan will definitely be another bloody battle. When the two armies are fighting, I will go straight into Zhao's homeland. If Zhao's head and tail cannot care about each other, they will definitely die."
Wang Wan looked displeased at this guest minister who had quarreled with him for the first time, and continued: "Although Chu State is in chaos, if he sits back and watches Qin State defeat Zhao State, then Chu State will not belong to Qin State at all.
My opponent, not all people in Jingchu are short-sighted."
Ying Zheng saw that the topic had gone astray and cut it off, "Okay, Wang Wan, you are mature and prudent, I know, but today you are here to discuss how to destroy Zhao. As for your worries, don't I know? The Chu State will soon be over.
It's as simple as chaos. Without complete preparations, would I attack the State of Zhao? Master, please tell you a story."
Lu Yan cleared his throat and told the so-called story despite everyone's strange looks, "The current Chu State Magistrate Yin Liyuan was once a retainer of Chunshen Lord Huang Xie. He dedicated his sister Yan to Huang Xie for the sake of prosperity and wealth.
;
Soon Yan became pregnant. The woman told Huang Xie that the old King Chu had no sons. When he died, the throne would be passed on to his brothers. By then, your situation would be extremely dangerous.
So Huang Xie gave the pregnant Yan to the King of Chu, and by virtue of his power in the Chu State at the time, he successfully hid it from all kinds of eyes and ears. This Yan's son is now the King of Chu, Xiong Han."
"Hiss~"
Everyone present took a breath, as if they were getting to know their Imperial Master all over again. They all stared at Lu Yan's face in disbelief. There were so many bamboo shoots!
"Everyone, why are you staring at Yan? There is evidence for this. After Li Yuan assassinated Huang Xie, one was to gain power, and the other was to prevent this matter from being exposed. It was not just Hu Zou who was lying."
Yes, yes, we believe it.
Yes, yes, what the Imperial Master said must be true.
Although no one spoke openly, Lu Yan could read such words from everyone's eyes.
He was speechless and choked for a moment: No, this is true, I just controlled it to break out at this time.
The Chu Gongzi has been waiting for this day to accumulate strength for so long. Those clans whose interests have been affected by Xiong Han's reform will definitely feel like they have gained a treasure when they hear this news. A vigorous civil war in Chu is inevitable.
Everyone present also understood that it was impossible for the Chu State to interfere with the Qin State's destruction of Zhao. Even if one of them failed, the Chu State could destroy itself. The Master of the State is so ferocious~
When Ying Zheng saw everyone's reaction, he nodded with satisfaction, "Chu is out. No one can hinder Da Qin from destroying Zhao. You can rest assured."
"Your Majesty, I would like to submit a plan to destroy Zhao."
Well, Wang Jian immediately stood up and offered his plan to destroy Zhao.
Ying Zheng was overjoyed and said, "Okay, general, speak quickly."
Wang Jian led everyone to draw two signs on the map of Zhao State, and said: "One group of armies captured Yanyu, Liyang and other places from the north road, occupied the Taihang Mountains, and swooped down on Handan, the capital of Zhao State. Another group of armies captured it from the south road.
Ye, Anyang and other places occupy the entire south bank of the Zhang River, facing Handan across the river. Now the city of Handan is surrounded from the north and the south, and we will definitely be able to break the city in one fell swoop and capture Zhao Yan."
"Okay, okay, okay." Ying Zheng carefully looked at the march route of the north-south encirclement, and cheered one after another, showing a satisfied look, "General, I am worthy of being the God of War of the Qin Dynasty! Everyone, do you have anything else to add?"
In fact, there was nothing more to say, so Li Si came out to check his presence and said, "Your Majesty, the rest of the Zhao Kingdom is not a concern. Only Li Mu, who is known as the God of Military Formations in the north, still needs to be vigilant."
Wang Jian's tiger eyes instantly rose with momentum. Everyone is a famous general in the world, and he has been passed down by word of mouth countless times. Now that he can finally fight on the battlefield, he is of course full of fighting spirit, "Humph, Li Mu, our country in Qin is not what it used to be."
For example, even if all Li Mu's frontier troops move south, I am sure to annihilate them all."
When Lu Yan heard Li Mu's name, he frowned. He could kill everyone else in the Zhao Kingdom, but Li Mu couldn't. After conquering the Zhao Kingdom, he wanted to try his best to appease the Zhao people and resume production, even if he killed the Zhao Kingdom's official
Even Li Mu can't be killed. It's not his own fault that he is regarded as a patron saint by the people in the north. Moreover, Li Mu is an important benchmark figure in establishing Chinese national consciousness. This is too important.
He immediately said: "Li Mu's border troops have been suppressing foreign tribes for a long time, and their fighting power is fierce, but at the same time they are far away from the capital and are alone. Since Zhao is going to be destroyed, we still can't let Li Mu's thigh be held by Zhao Yan."
"Oh? Master National Preceptor, do you have a way to make Zhao Guo not use Li Mu?"
"Maybe we can give it a try. Anyway, it's not the best time for Qin to send troops. We still have time to make sufficient preparations."
Li Xin only felt a heavy blow on his chest and couldn't help but say: "Ah? It's not the best time to send troops, so why are we gathering in such a hurry today?"
Ying Zheng looked at these confidants and said confidently: "Although we won't send troops immediately, we still need to know the general strategy well. After you go back, you can start gearing up. We just need to wait for the news on the Yanzhao battlefield.
