Destroy Chu first!
If it were Wei Liao, Yao Jia, or even Wei Zhuang or Li Si who proposed this sentence.
Even Zhao Tuo wouldn't be surprised. After all, in history, the Qin State preceded Chu and then Qi. With the sophisticated eyes of these important ministers, they could naturally tell which country between Qi and Chu had the advantage of destroying it first.
Even when Zhao Tuo was answering questions in the side hall during the day, he put Chu first.
The reason why he was making insinuations all the way and hinting at Li Xin's Qi Yi and Chu Di was not because he wanted to change Qin's war policy, and they did not have the ability to do so. Zhao Tuo just hoped to change the fact that Li Xin became the general to attack Chu.
Or even if he can't change Li Xin's attack on Chu, Zhao Tuo also hopes that under his constant influence, Li Xin will pay attention to the difficulty of attacking Chu and will not be as frivolous as in the original history, daring to attack with only 200,000 yuan. Chu.
In fact, Li Xin really listened to the words of his arm and proposed the strategy of attacking Qi first.
Zhao Tuozheng was secretly happy. As a result, Qin Wangzheng would be very disappointed with Li Xin and would not even let him be the general again.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Mr. Changping suddenly appeared.
"Could it be that Mr. Changping also wanted to express his loyalty like Wei Liao and Yao Jia?"
Zhao Tuo frowned, looking at Changping Jun's calm expression, unsure of what he was thinking.
Changping Jun is different from ordinary Wei people like Wei Liao and Yao Jia. He is a true son of the Chu State, with the blood of the Xiong family named Mi flowing in his body. If he proposes to attack Chu, he will really destroy his ancestral temple.
More importantly, Zhao Tuo knew that this person was one of the reasons for the defeat of the future attack on Chu. Could he have some premeditated plan to attack Chu now?
While Zhao Tuo was making random guesses, Qin Wangzheng already said calmly: "Mr. Changping said that we should attack Chu first. I don't know if I have any suggestions."
Lord Changping smiled slightly and said: "The king of Chu today is a man who killed his brother and attempted to usurp us. If his name is not correct, his words will not be correct. There are many princes and officials in the Chu Kingdom who are thousands of miles away who have secret intentions for him. "I am dissatisfied. This is the time when the Chu State is disloyal. If our Qin State takes advantage of this opportunity to attack Chu, Chu will not be able to fight with all its strength. It can be defeated in one fell swoop."
As soon as these words came out, all the important ministers nodded in agreement.
Between Qi and Chu, it is very important to put Chu first.
Only Li Xin blushed with embarrassment when he heard this. He only considered the comparison of territorial strength between Qi and Chu, and did not think about the changes in the internal situation of Chu, which was also the key to the conquest.
Lord Changping's next words were even more unscrupulous. He said loudly: "I, Xiong Qi, was originally the concubine of King Kaolie of Chu. He and Fu Cu were brothers. The King of Chu, Xiong You, whom he usurped, was also my brother."
"So, if I go to the border of Chu State and secretly seek revenge for Xiong You, I can connect with the wealthy and powerful people in Chu State who are dissatisfied with Fu Chu. This will dismantle the power of Chu State from the inside and weaken the power of Chu State from the outside. Can you support our Qin army! If this happens, Chu will be destroyed!"
Changping-kun's voice was still gentle, but hearing it made people's hair stand on end.
What a great way to divide and disintegrate, and to combine the inside and the outside!
Coming to power as a regicide and promoting his confidants will inevitably harm the interests of many nobles of Chu and make them dissatisfied. As long as Changping Jun, a young master of the Chu Kingdom, takes up the banner of revenge for Chu King Xiong You, he will definitely be able to gather a group of people.
"Good idea."
The government of the King of Qin cannot be controlled by his own hands. If the strategy proposed by Lord Changping can be successful, it will definitely save a lot of effort in the battle of Qin to destroy Chu, and the resistance from the Chu people will be much less.
However, nothing is absolute, and he still needs to seek the opinions of several important ministers.
Li Si, who was born in Chu, was the first to agree: "I also think that the king's strategy is excellent. If it succeeds, the Chu country will be destroyed this time."
Wei Liao nodded slightly, "In terms of the art of war, this strategy is indeed the best."
As for Wei Zhuang, he had no objection, "Everything is up to the king."
When Wang Jian saw Qin Wangzheng looking at him, he nodded and said, "This strategy is feasible."
Qin Wangzheng's eyes swept over these four people and finally looked at Yao Jia. Seeing that the minister in charge of spy work nodded slightly, he knew that this matter should not be a big problem, so he smiled and said: "Since all the ministers think that this strategy is feasible, then they will act accordingly. It's just..."
Qin Wangzheng said, his eyes fell on Lord Changping again.
As the Right Prime Minister of Qin State, rushing to the border of Chu State for activities is problematic no matter how you look at it.
Feeling Qin Wangzheng's gaze, the elegant monarch smiled faintly, turned to Yao Jia, and asked: "Yao Jun, I heard that there has been quite a turmoil in Korea recently, and there seems to be an undercurrent surging in Xinzheng."
Yao Jia replied: "Of course, there are old Korean nobles in Xinzheng who are evil-minded and secretly collude with each other. They want to rescue Han An and restore Korea again, ha..."
At the end of the sentence, Yao Jia laughed disdainfully.
When Korea was not destroyed, it was still subservient to Qin, and Qin could destroy it with a backhand. Now that Korea has been destroyed, a group of clan survivors are thinking of rioting and restoring, which is really overestimating their own capabilities.
Lord Changping nodded slightly, turned to look at Qin Wangzheng, and said with cupped hands: "Han is the heart of the Central Plains, and Xinzheng is the most important. It is close to Daliang in the north and Chen Ying in the south. We must not neglect it. I would like to resign as your right As prime minister, I will go to Han to pacify the Korean people's unrest, and at the same time make friends with the large families in Chu who are dissatisfied with Fu Chu, and prepare for Qin's attack on Chu."
Although the right prime minister is not as good as the former prime minister, his powers are somewhat differentiated. But it is also the highest position in the official system of the Qin State today, which can be said to be lower than one person and higher than ten thousand people.
Lord Changping stayed in this position for almost ten years after Lu Buwei's death. He worked conscientiously and made great contributions to the rise of Qin. Even though King Qin had just wanted to let him resign, he couldn't say it personally. out.
Now that Lord Changping resigned in person, Qin Wangzheng was indeed very happy, and he looked at his uncle with a much kinder look.
Although they are father of Chu and mother of Qin, they grew up in our Qin country after all, and they are from our Qin country.
Qin Wangzheng smiled and said: "Good, I will keep the post of Prime Minister You for Lord Changping. I will have to work hard for Lord Changping this time to attack Chu. When the war in Chu is decided, I will never forget Lord Changping's contribution." "
"Your hard work, Lord."
All the officials also followed Qin Wangzheng and said.
Lord Changping still said in his calm and gentle voice: "It is also Qizhi's wish to serve the great king to unify the world."
This kind of demeanor is really respectable, and even the ministers who were estranged from him before could not help but look at him with admiration.
Li Xin even whispered: "I really admire your magnanimity for your magnanimity. If you have your help in attacking Chu, we will be able to defeat Chu in one fell swoop!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Tuo's mouth twitched.
You stupid young man actually admires him!
Ruined!
Completely finished!
Zhao Tuo wailed in his heart.
Lord Changping's performance tonight was indeed very graceful and wise. He proposed the strategy of dividing and disintegrating the state of Chu. He was willing to resign as right minister and went to Korea in person.
Especially since he was the son of the Chu State and a descendant of the King of Chu with the blood of Mi in his body, he was willing to do his best to help the Qin State destroy Chu.
Such behavior completely established the image of Changping Lord as a loyal minister of the Qin State who sacrificed himself for the country.
If Zhao Tuo hadn't known the outcome in advance, he would probably have praised him like all the ministers in the palace.
However, knowing the result, he felt like a light on his back at the moment, restless, watching the Qin Kingdom go to the bottom tonight.
Can he change?
impossible!
Even though Zhao Tuo is now appreciated by the King of Qin, he is just a public official and his position is no more than a small official. His status is very different from that of Changping Lord.
Not to mention that Zhao Tuo is still a Zhao native. If he dares to say bad things at this time, not only will it be useless, but he will also be suspected of having ulterior motives and even lose the trust of Qin Wangzheng.
Don't people believe that their uncle, who has been with them for more than ten years, and his ministers, trust you, a little kid from outside?
Thinking of this, Zhao Tuo wisely shut up.
However, the shock he received tonight was not over yet.
After Changping Jun resigned and entered Korea, Qin Wangzheng looked at several generals in the palace.
He smiled and said: "If I want to capture Jingjing, how many people will it take for me to conquer the general?"
