Ziyou rested in Xiaoshengxian Village for more than half a month before preparing to return to Xianyang. This time Ziyou took Jingbao with him, while Ji Yan stayed with Xunzi. Originally, Ziyou wanted to take Ji Yan away as well. , but was rejected by Xunzi. Compared with Xianyang, Xunzi was better able to deal with people who could use dreams to prompt Ji Yan to touch the seal. Although Xianyang was safe, there were many people and no one could say whether there would be survivors. Ji Yan got mixed up in the middle, so Ji Yan was left in Xiaoshengxian Manor.
By the time Ziyou brought everyone back to Xianyang, Dingxiang Building had already opened. The Dingxiang Building was in the form of twin buildings, with the kitchen and work area in the middle. One side highlighted luxury, while the other side focused on ordinary. Likewise, It was also revealed that the boss behind the business was jointly run by Confucianism and Lu Buwei.
The first floor is mainly for luxury, mainly for dignitaries and businessmen. Because the visitors are either rich or noble, these people compete to eat. On the one hand, they want to sell to Lu Buwei to gain face, and on the other hand, they want to broaden their circle. What if you could make some friends there?
The other side of the building is run by Confucianists, and the food inside is really novel and delicious, especially the hot pot and barbecue, which makes the common people love it even more. They don't have much money and just eat ordinary dishes. In addition to the friendly environment, good services, and the endorsement of Confucianism, people can go there with confidence.
The Dingxiang Building was full for a while, and the food inside was particularly attractive. In addition, there was a takeout service, allowing some people to enjoy fresh and delicious meals without going out. In addition, anyone endorsed by Lu Buwei and Confucianism could enter. Dingxianglou’s consumption guarantees that there will be no discrimination, which has led to the continuous influx of wealthy businessmen, becoming the main force in consumption.
Looking at the Dingxiang Tower, which is making a lot of money every day, the smile on Ying Zheng's face becomes brighter and brighter. The construction of the Yulin Army has emptied the money of the young master. In the past, when the young master ran out of money, he always borrowed money from the treasury. Now, Relying on the Dingxiang Tower, Shaofu Ling could wake up from his dreams with a smile every day. Finally, he no longer had to borrow money from the treasury when he had no money.
After the formation of the Yulin Army, in addition to daily training during the day, there is also reading. These people are allowed to study for half an hour every day, because most of them are veterans. For new recruits, the veterans will also teach Give them battlefield experience and life-saving means. At the same time, for some people who perform well and have the opportunity to become grassroots officers, Ying Zheng also ordered officers in the army to teach them how to lead troops.
The Qin State has a system of rotating generals. Every once in a while, the generals will be mobilized to return to Xianyang to report on their duties. During this period, for the sake of his own troops, Ying Zheng also asked these generals who reported their duties to give lectures on how to lead troops in war. When news of Lin Jun's treatment spread, countless people wanted to get in. However, due to the restrictions on recruitment, many people could only hate it. Ying Zheng treated his own soldiers like this, so naturally gossip spread. Many people Some people have doubts about the combat effectiveness of the Yulin Army?
After Ziyou returned to Qin, he was taken away by Zhao Gao as soon as he entered the house.
"What's so urgent?" Ziyou asked.
"Sir, the king is preparing to attack South Korea and is currently discussing this matter." Zhao Gao said.
"I've been gone for half a month, why do I suddenly want to attack South Korea?" Ziyou asked. According to Lu Buwei's discussion with him, the foundation should be consolidated now, and the war to unify the world would be officially launched after the civil strife in Chu.
"It was an alliance between Han, Wei and Chu. Han and Wei took a lot of land from the Chu State. Because it was inconvenient for South Korea to govern these enclaves, they negotiated with the Wei State to exchange land, money and population for these lands. The Wei State agreed. If they wait until After the handover between Han and Wei is completed, it will be much more difficult to attack South Korea, so the king and the military are preparing to attack South Korea immediately before the handover between the two sides.
At the same time, considering the Chu State, seeing that South Korea was attacked, the Wei State could not resist and might take the opportunity to tear up the alliance and regain the lost territory, which would involve the Wei State and make it impossible for the Wei State to help South Korea. " Zhao Guo said.
Ziyou nodded, if you consider it this way, it is indeed the best choice, especially the matter of Chu State tearing up the alliance. This is not the first time Chu State has done this kind of thing. It is nothing more than saying afterwards that I am a barbarian and not polite. Anyway, Chu State They are also despised by the Central Plains, and they don't care.
The two people came to the main hall in a hurry. At this time, there were many people in the main hall. Li Si, Lu Buwei, Feng Quji, Wei Liaozi, Chang Wenjun, Ying Zheng, and Gai Nie were all planning the attack. Han's route and possible encounters, everyone stopped after seeing Zhao Gao and Zi Yu coming in.
"Teacher, I'm really in a hurry. Please forgive me. We are discussing the attack on South Korea." Ying Zheng stood up and said.
"Zhao Gao told me on the way. I wonder where the king and everyone have discussed?" Ziyou asked, looking at the layout map.
"We have discussed the possible obstacles in attacking South Korea. Now the 50,000 Chu-Han army led by Wei Zhuang is on the way back, and now South Korea still has these 150,000 troops to fight, especially the 100,000 troops in Bai Yifei's hands. , especially the 50,000 White Armored Army, which is the elite among the elite, and occupies the rich land of Nanyang, with sufficient food and grass, and complete military equipment, it can be said to be the biggest obstacle." Wei Liaozi said.
Although South Korea claims to have an army of 300,000, there are only about 150,000 capable warriors among them, and the rest are some reserve troops or civilians. Once a war breaks out, they will not be on the front line.
Wei Liao looked at Ziyou. He had been listening to Ziyou's stories every day since he entered Qin. He was also very interested in this Confucian master who planned the world and had countless plans. However, he had never had a chance to visit. It was inevitable to get excited after seeing him today. In order to be competitive, I wanted to see if Ziyou was as omnipotent as the rumors said. As we all know, Confucians are among the few who do not know the art of war. Although Confucians also had Zilu as a general at the beginning, Zilu used military tactics. He relied on his own force and prestige, but in the end he ended up being hacked to death with random knives.
"I will handle Bai Yifei's matter." Ziyou said calmly. Ziyou could also see what Wei Liaozi was thinking, so he had to pretend to be so cool.
"How are Mr. Ziyou going to deal with it?" Wei Liaozi said with interest.
"Don't bother Taiwei to worry about this matter. I will take care of Bai Yifei's matter." Ziyou continued to lie, and at the same time he was thinking about how to use this matter to peel off the skin from Wei Liaozi.
"Mr. Ziyou had better make it clear that the battlefield is not like studying. Every move may affect the overall situation. Moreover, South Korea's fighting troops mainly rely on Bai Yifei's 100,000 troops. If Bai Yifei's affairs cannot be handled well, it may affect the situation." The overall situation." Wei Liaozi said.
Others looked at the aggressive Wei Liaozi and were a little puzzled for a moment. They were also puzzled by Zi You who had always been tolerant. You must know that Zi You would not give up to Wei Liaozi just because he was old, otherwise the old fisherman would It won't end badly.
"I have my own arrangements. If the lieutenant doesn't believe it, we can make a bet on whether I can handle Bai Yifei's matter well so that our Qin soldiers can capture Nanyang without any damage." Ziyou's lips raised slightly. said.
Knowing Ziyou's signature moves, Li Si, Lu Buwei and Ying Zheng all began to look at Wei Liaozi with sympathetic eyes. They knew that Ziyou was going to trick Wei Liaozi, and they were also curious about how Ziyou was going to deal with Bai Yifei.
"In that case, I made this bet. I don't know what to bet on?" Wei Liaozi said.
If a famous person or Guigu strategist wanted to bet on him, he might hesitate, but he wouldn't do it with Confucianism. Confucianism doesn't know the art of war, and secondly, they don't know the art of strategizing, let alone the clever mouth of a famous person, and Ziyou himself There are no rumors that he has done any big things. In Wei Liaozi's view, the things he has done are nothing more than using fame to suppress people and govern the country. Ziyou cannot be the one to persuade Bai Yifei to let Bai Yifei. Rebellious? impossible! ! ! Bai Yifei is a Marquis of South Korea. He has a high position and a hereditary title. He has an army of 100,000 in his hands and his own strength is superb. How could he betray South Korea?
"I heard that the Taiwei is writing the Art of War, so why not bet on this Art of War? If I can capture Nanyang without spending a single soldier, the Taiwei will hand over this Art of War and at the same time serve as strategic commander for Qin to conquer the six kingdoms. , how is it?" Ziyou said.
What the Qin State lacks now is military strategic command like Wei Liaozi, but Wei Liaozi feels that what he has learned is vertical warfare, which is not suitable for the Qin State and has no place to use it in the Qin State, so he refuses to contribute and enjoys it in the Qin State. After such a long time, I still can't think of anything to do, but from the perspective of Ziyou, a person who likes to pluck the hair of geese, this is simply the biggest insult.
"Of course it's possible, what if you can't do it?" Wei Liaozi said.
"What the captain says is whatever he says," Ziyou said.
"Okay, it's settled." Wei Liaozi said. He did not believe that Ziyou could incite Bai Yifei to surrender to Qin. This was his recognition of a hereditary marquis.
Seeing the discussion between Wei Liaozi and Zi You end, everyone returned to the matter of attacking South Korea. The attack on South Korea was already a certainty, but leading the army became a problem? It is true that the commander-in-chief of the army is Wang Jian, but now that Mengwu is out of mourning period, he also wants to be active. At the same time, there is a problem with the vanguard generals who attack South Korea. The most important thing for Qin is generals who can fight. A lot of people are Thinking of getting involved.
This is the first battle of the Qin State to destroy the six countries. Everyone wants to participate, but attacking South Korea still does not require so many people. At this time, it is necessary to select a person who can convince everyone to take charge of the attack. The supreme commander of South Korea, only in this way can he control everyone and prevent others from having conflicts over issues of military merit. These people who lead troops to fight live for one breath and one name. You let him go and don't let me fight this. Zhan, do you think I'm weaker than him? Isn’t this how Lian Po and Le Cheng fought in the first place?
Wei Liaozi could convince both Wang Jian and Meng Wu, but he couldn't help. Just when everyone was thinking about this problem, Ying Zheng looked at Ziyou. Ziyou was the mainstay of the Qin Dynasty. Wang Ben and Li Xin and Yang Duanhe were both brought out by him. Meng Yi of the Meng family intends to study Confucianism and Legalism, and has recently been working with Li Si. Meng Tian now leads the Yulin Army, which was established with Ziyou's support. Get up.
Therefore, it is most appropriate for Zi Youlai to be the supreme commander of the attack on South Korea this time.
"Teacher can serve as the supreme commander this time, with Wang Jian and Meng Wu as deputy generals." Ying Zheng said, so that Wang Jian and Meng Wu would not argue endlessly about who is the commander.
Everyone thought about it and found that Ziyou was indeed the most suitable, but whether Ziyou could lead troops was another matter. They had never heard that Ziyou could lead troops.
"Can Mr. Ziyou lead troops?" Lu Buwei asked.
"I don't know how, but Wang Jian and the Mengwu Association." Ziyou said, he doesn't know how, just Wang Jian and the Mengwu Association. He is not a master of micro management like the bald principal, so let professionals do it. Is something bad? He followed him to do some military exploits.
"It's feasible." Lu Buwei said. After all, the supreme commander is just to balance the various generals in the army. He does not necessarily need to be able to fight, as long as he can suppress them.
"In this case, I ordered Wang Jian to be at Shangdang, Meng Wu to be at Hangu Pass, and Yang Duanhe and Li Xin to attack South Korea from three sides." Ying Zheng said with a wave of his hand.
"No!" everyone said in salute.
