The blue-gray bricks and tiles are stacked on top of each other to build a solemn and solemn Qin Palace.
It's that familiar temple again.
Qin Wangzheng was wearing comfortable clothes, sitting on the couch, holding a scroll of slips in his hand as always, looking at it with his head lowered.
It seems that he is thinking about national affairs at all times.
Zhao Gao stood beside him with his hands lowered, waiting for the king's instructions at any time.
Zhao Tuo walked to the front of the hall and saw Zhao Gao inside shaking his head slightly at him.
He smiled knowingly and stood in front of the hall waiting respectfully.
In the Qin Palace, no one is allowed to enter without being summoned.
After a long time, King Qin Zhengcai raised his head and looked at the figure standing in front of the palace.
This kid has grown a little taller. In a few years, he will be eight feet tall.
Qin Wangzheng's heart moved slightly and a smile appeared on his face.
"It's Zhao Tuo, come in."
"only."
Zhao Tuo responded respectfully, put on his socks and entered the palace. He walked up to the King Qin's bed and bowed to him.
"Your Majesty, Zhao Tuo, pays homage to your Majesty."
"Haha, Zhao Tuo, Zhao Tuo, the great things you did in Wei and the contributions you made really amaze me."
Qin Wangzheng spoke, with a hint of praise in his words.
Zhao Tuo hurriedly said: "The reason why I can achieve this small feat is because of the wise king Shenwu and his ability to obey the destiny to attack Wei. On the battlefield, General Wang also commanded well and the soldiers used their lives, so they were able to be overwhelming and Zhao Tuo was able to defeat Wei." Wei won the victory."
"Wang Ben wrote a letter and said all the good things about you. You are good at training and using troops. You told me that you have the qualifications to become a general in the future. And now, you are saying good things about Wang Ben in front of me. You people ah……"
Qin Wangzheng smiled and shook his head.
Zhao Tuo smiled awkwardly, but silently praised Wang Ben in his heart.
General Wang, you are so upright!
However, the next second, as soon as Qin Wangzheng's words came out, Zhao Tuo's face changed color.
"Since Wang Ben said that you have the qualifications to become a general, you can be considered as having fought several victorious battles as a general in Wei. I would like to ask you, what do you think of the upcoming campaign against Chu? ?」
Damn it!
Zhao Tuo felt bitter in his mouth. He didn't expect that King Qin's political meeting would ask him about this matter. This was a difficult question.
What do I think of the upcoming battle against Chu?
Naturally, I hope that Li Xin will be replaced, old general Wang Jian will come, and another 600,000 people will be sent to the battlefield.
It would be best to replace Lord Changping who remains in Huaiyang.
In this way, the battle against Chu will definitely be stable.
But Zhao Tuo didn't dare to say that. In today's situation where the whole country is arrogant, those who can say these things are either upright loyal ministers or fools who are missing a muscle in their brains.
Fools are annoying, and loyal ministers rarely end well.
Zhao Tuo forced a smile on his face, cupped his hands and said: "I thought that with the king and the ministers making decisions in the court, and General Li personally commanding the front line, leading the Jian to eliminate the power of Wei, and attacking the divided Chu, this battle would definitely be successful. Victory."
Qin Wangzheng's face was stern and he said: "You, Zhao Tuo, always pick up nice things to say. When I ask you, I naturally want to hear useful things. You have been on the battlefield for a long time. Do you have any good suggestions for this attack on Chu? , feel free to tell and listen, and let everyone know whether Wang Ben’s words are true or false.”….
Zhao Tuo was stunned for a moment. Seeing that Qin Wangzheng was asking seriously instead of just listening to good words, he understood that the king wanted to test what Zhao Tuo had learned on the battlefield to see if he was really what Wang Ben said. , has the qualifications to become a general.
If the King of Qin called him to ask questions last time, it was to ask about the general trend of the world and strategic direction.
Now, it is time to put it into practice and examine Zhao Tuo's specific opinions on this war.
Zhao Tuo was moved, and there was a good opportunity for him to make suggestions.
Of course, there are also particularities in how to make suggestions.
The idea of replacing generals with additional troops is definitely not feasible.
Li Xin is the general and leads an army of 200,000. This is
The planned plan is also the troops and candidates that Qin Wangzheng needs, and it is absolutely impossible to change it.
As for Lord Changping, Zhao Tuo is even less likely to talk about it.
Before that incident happened, Lord Changping was a loyal minister of Qin and a blood relative of the current King of Qin.
Can Zhao Tuo slander such a person?
As for the specific march route and how to arrange the command, it is the matter of the general. Even the King of Qin will not interfere, let alone his little Zhao Tuo, who has no say in strategic planning.
Therefore, Zhao Tuo could only find another way this time.
He was thinking a lot. He didn't want to tell the truth and anger King Qin, but he also didn't want to lose this good opportunity to make suggestions.
Finally, Zhao Tuo found a blind spot.
He boldly asked, "May I ask who the lieutenant your Majesty has prepared for General Li this time."
Under the chief general of the Qin army, there are generally many assistant generals assigned according to the strength of the troops to command the lieutenants below. Among these generals, there will be one who is relatively more important and serves as the deputy to the main general.
The reason for doing this is so that when the general decides to divide his troops and march, one person can lead the other generals and make corresponding deployments.
Without the existence of this deputy, the other generals would all be at the same level and have similar titles. Why do we have to accept the command of someone of the same level as you when we divide our troops? That will inevitably cause disputes.
The deputy general has greater power than other deputy generals, and his suggestions are often seriously considered by the general.
When Wang Jian destroyed Yan, his deputy general was Xin Sheng. However, Xin Sheng, like Wang Jian, is both of a safe temperament, and his glory will inevitably be taken away by Li Xin and Qiang Yu, but he does not seem to have a strong sense of existence.
Hearing Zhao Tuo's words, King Qin's eagle-like eyes narrowed.
This guy asked a tricky question.
He said calmly: "Meng Tian."
Meng Tian!
Zhao Tuo took a breath, it was really like this.
Zhonglang will be Mengtian!
He was Zhao Tuo's old leader when he was a lieutenant in the Qin Palace.
The reason why Zhao Tuo was surprised was not that Meng Tian was incompetent. Historically, Meng Tian defeated the Huns more than 700 miles north. He commanded hundreds of thousands of troops, and his prestige was shocking in northern Xinjiang. He was second to none in the entire Qin Dynasty. general.
But that was in the future. Although Meng Tian is familiar with military books, his father and ancestors are both famous generals. And there is Gao Jue, the chief of Zuo Shu, who holds the position of Zhonglang General. But he has never been on the battlefield, and his battlefield experience is not even as much as Zhao Tuo's.
Moreover, Meng Tian was a few years younger than Li Xin. Such a person would serve as Li Xin's lieutenant and then go to destroy Chu.
Zhao Tuo's scalp goes numb just thinking about this combination to destroy Chu. ….
He knew that the reason why Qin Wangzheng did this was probably to appoint a group of young and strong generals from Langguan background to replace Wang Jian, Yang Duanhe, Xin Sheng and other veteran generals, in order to inject fresh blood into the Qin army while weakening the strength of those veteran generals. Authority, to avoid the situation of being too powerful to overwhelm the master.
In an ordinary war, it would be nothing, but to do such a thing when destroying Chu is a bit of a joke.
Everything is caused by pride.
Seeing Zhao Tuo's expression change, Qin Wangzheng frowned and said, "Why, you think Meng Tian can't do it."
At this point, Zhao Tuo had to face the difficulties.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Zhao Tuo once served under General Meng Zhonglang. Naturally, he knew that General Zhonglang was a natural general. He also has military skills passed down from his family. He will definitely become a famous general in the world in the future."
Qin Wangzheng nodded. Meng Tian was the young general he admired most after Li Xin. He must be capable.
But Zhao Tuo's voice suddenly changed and he said loudly: "But I also heard that Wu Sun Tzu said that soldiers are important matters of the country, the place of life and death, and the way of survival."
"And the general is the auxiliary of the country. If he assists the Zhou Dynasty, the country will be strong; if he assists Zhou, the country will be weak."
"With General Li Xin as the main general, this attack on Chu will be no problem. But if the deputy general chooses a mature and steady general, it will be like putting a pair of wings on a tiger. This battle will be more effective with half the effort, and the more It’s safe.”
Qin Wangzheng frowned
, although Zhao Tuo did not say it explicitly, the meaning behind his words is that Meng Tian has never been on the battlefield and may not be capable enough, which will make this battle risky.
Let him consider carefully. It is better to choose a veteran to assist Zuo Li Xin.
Qin Wangzheng also considered the difficulty of destroying Chu.
Today's Chu State is no longer what it used to be. Not only is it internally divided, but its army's combat effectiveness has also declined seriously. This is evidenced by Wang Ben's seizure of more than ten cities in Chu State last year.

Wang Ben was able to defeat the Chu army with tens of thousands of troops, and he, King Qin, sent an army of 200,000 people at once. Wouldn't it scare the King of Chu to the point of pissing off Chu, and destroying Chu would be a piece of cake.
Of course, the most important reason is that Li Xin is a veteran on the battlefield. He performed very well when he destroyed Zhao and Yan. His courage and courage were deeply appreciated by the King of Qin. He is simply the new generation of Qin's God of War.
With such a figure leading the team, the King of Qin was eager to destroy Chu.
It doesn't actually matter who the lieutenant is in this battle.
The reason why Qin Wangzheng chose Meng Tian was actually because he hoped that Li Xin would take him with him so that Meng Tian could learn some battlefield experience and become his humerus general of Qin Wangzheng in the future.
However, Zhao Tuo's sentence, "Soldiers are important matters of the country, the place of life and death, and the way of survival. They must be observed." It is also reasonable.
Qin Wangzheng was slightly moved.
Yes, war is the most important thing for a country. It is related to the life and death of a country and cannot be taken lightly. It is indeed safer to use an old general to assist Li Xin.
Meng Tian, after all, has never been on the battlefield.
Qin Wangzheng asked casually: "Since you think it would be safer to use veterans to assist the left, do you have any suitable candidates to recommend?"
Zhao Tuo nodded and said, "I do think there is someone more suitable than General Meng Zhonglang."
Qin Wangzheng was stunned. He asked casually, but he didn't expect Zhao Tuo to actually answer.
This is completely unwise behavior.
No matter who Zhao Tuo has in mind, even if it is Yang Duanhe, Xin Sheng, or even a famous country-destroying general like Wang Ben, the Meng clan will definitely feel very unhappy.
It's equivalent to pointing at Meng Tian's nose and saying, you're not as good as that guy.
Once word gets out, no matter how good-natured Meng Tian is, he will be offended and ridiculed in public.
This approach is not quite like Zhao Tuo's usual style of dealing with things.
Even Zhao Gao, who was standing by silently, couldn't help but his eyelids jumped. Although he hated Meng in his heart because of Fan Yi's incident, he did not dare to belittle Meng Tian in front of King Qin like this.
Did Zhao Tuo bang his head against the wall today?
Could it be that I, Zhao Gao, misunderstood, how could this person do such a stupid thing?
This statement will not only offend Mengshi, but even in the heart of King Qin, Zhao Tuo's evaluation will be lowered a lot.
Qin Wangzheng looked unhappy, but his curiosity reached its peak. He threw the slip he had been holding on to the eucalyptus, tilted his head forward slightly, and asked: "Zhao Tuo, who is the person you are talking about?" who?"
Zhao Gao closed his eyes. He felt that Zhao Tuo was really stupid today.
However, the next second, as Zhao Tuo said the man's name, Zhao Gao's eyes widened and he stared blankly at the young man in front of him.
Qin Wangzheng looked even weirder, half-smiling but not smiling.
"You mean... Meng Wu?".
