His smile was a kind of smile. After smiling, he said:
"Moral matters have been made clear below. Now let's talk about benefits."
"Oh? According to what the Prime Minister of Qin said, if our country, Huan, does not send troops, can we still gain benefits?" King Huan asked in return.
"Of course." Liu Yuzhi said: "May I ask Your Highness, in the previous war in the Central Plains, the Huan Kingdom participated in several large-scale battles. In the end, although a lot of land was annexed, why did they still have to attack the new city?"
As he spoke, he added: "As far as I know, in the battle of Xincheng, the Huan army was bloody and suffered heavy losses. But even so, Your Highness, you still insist on conquering this place."
After hearing this, King Huan's voice became a little darker: "This is our country's national policy, and there is no need for Qin Prime Minister to worry about it."
"Of course, foreign envoys dare not make unreasonable comments about your country's national policy, but we can also understand that the reason why His Highness does not care about the cost is simply to check and balance the powerful Jin." Liu Yuzhi said: "If I make a mistake in what I said, please don't blame me. "
His words can be said to have spoken to King Huan's heart. Even though King Huan looked very similar to King Jin, they were both kings of the same country, and neither of them had any means of planning.
After Liu Yuzhi finished speaking, King Huan began to squint his eyes, and then his expression returned to normal and said: "Okay, Prime Minister Qin's remarks have made me a little confused, so please speak frankly."
Liu Yuzhi said: "Since His Highness needs to check and balance the powerful Jin, wouldn't it be in line with His Highness's wishes for our country, Qin, to attack Jin now?"
"This is just for one point. Secondly, I heard that Shangjun is good. Judging from its geographical location, if Huan Guo can get this county, it will not only expand its territory, but also be able to form a horn with the new city, and then overlook the Central Plains and surround it. Nations.”
These words made King Huan's eyes sparkle. This was exactly what he was thinking about day and night. Otherwise, he would not ask for the county from Jin.
After being silent for a while, King Huan slowly opened his mouth and said: "I heard what Prime Minister Qin meant, is it possible for me, Huan State, to get Shangjun?"
"Of course." Liu Yuzhi said without hesitation: "Today, Yiyang has been defeated, the door of the Jin Kingdom is wide open, and fierce fighting is also going on in the Guangling area. With such a two-front battle, the Jin Kingdom will surely lose ground. By then, Shangjun will How can King Jin take care of it there?"
"Therefore, I think that instead of asking for land, it is better to take it for yourself."
"Shangjun!" King Huan said with a deep look, and then looked at Liu Yuzhi and said: "Is Prime Minister Qin trying to win over the Jin Dynasty by joining our alliance with Huan State?"
"No, no, no, Your Highness, please don't misunderstand." Liu Yuzhi quickly shook his hand and said, "Whether to take it or not is entirely up to Your Highness to decide, and based on my opinion, Huan Guo can avoid this weapon and wait for Qin, Jin, and Liang , when the Three Kingdoms war reaches a certain level, wouldn’t it be better to take over Shangjun easily than sending troops now?”
After speaking, he continued: "In this way, first, His Highness does not have to worry about the teacher being unknown."
"Second, there is no need to waste troops, soldiers or warriors."
"Third, you can just sit back and catch the fishermen."
"Fourth, for strategic purposes, it not only suppressed the powerful Jin, but also gained important territory."
"With these four points, I believe that there is really no reason for Huan Guo to send troops. Of course, these are just my suggestions. Please consider it deeply."
After Liu Yuzhi finished speaking, his voice fell silent. King Huan also began to think seriously. He had to admit that what Liu Yuzhi said made him very moved.
To help the Jin State, it is better to watch the show and wait for the time to come, and easily take over the county by yourself. This is much more tempting than the Jin envoy's words.
After squinting his eyes, King Huan had already made some decisions in his mind, but at this moment, a Huan minister stood up.
"Your Majesty." He first saluted King Huan, then faced Liu Yuzhi, cupped his hands and said, "I, Du Yi, have something that I would like to ask Prime Minister Qin for advice."
Liu Yuzhi politely returned the gesture.
Du Yi said: "I just heard what Prime Minister Qin said. Although it appears that he is thinking about our country, in fact, it is all lies. I dare to ask Prime Minister Qin, if our country, Huan, sends troops, what will happen to Qin?"
"What can be done?" Liu Yuzhi asked.
"The Qin army must retreat."
"I don't think so."
"How can I see it?"
"You can fight at Shanyuguan."
At this point in the conversation, Du Yi understood that this was Liu Yuzhi's explanation of the Four Kingdoms' attack on Qin. He could not refute it, so he snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves and returned to the train.
Then, before King Huan could speak, another minister stood up and also bowed his hands and saluted:
"Jin has been strong for several generations, and Qin is a barbaric land. In terms of national power, they are incomparable. However, I heard what Qin Xiang said below, and it seems that Qin is sure to win in a battle against Jin."
"certainly."
"How to win?"
"With the wisdom of the monarch, the ability of the commander, and the bravery of the soldiers."
"King Qin aside, who is Su Yi?"
"A famous general!"
"Isn't it ridiculous that Prime Minister Qin is calling a famous general even though he is just a nobody?"
"Any famous general is not born, but has been through many battles and has made great achievements. Su Yi, the commander-in-chief of the Qin Army, everyone can see how he uses his troops. How about Yiyang? He can defeat it in one day. Let me ask the famous general, that's it. ?”
"This..." Liu Yuzhi presented the facts. The minister didn't know how to refute, so he had to return to the train.
Then, another minister stood up, bowed his hands and saluted:
"Qin used the weak to attack the strong. Regardless of victory or defeat, I will not mention it for the moment. I think it is better to ally with Jin and lock Qin in Shanyu Pass."
"What profit can Huan Guo gain from making a single statement?"
"At least, it can prevent Qin from going eastward."
"This statement is ridiculous. How many troops will Huan Guo expend in front of Shanyu Pass? If we take ten thousand steps back, even if we really lock Qin, millions of corpses will be laid on the ground, bleeding will be drifting in the oars. Huan Guo will lose troops and generals, but there will be no place for them. , what can be done?”
"this……"
"It is better to use the weak to control the strong if a strong alliance retreats from the weak. His Highness King Huan understands this in his heart, so I won't say more."
At this time, there were still ministers who wanted to stand up, but King Huan had already raised his hand and said: "Okay! My dear friends, there is no need to say any more. I already know what Qin Xiang said, but there is one thing. I still need to ask Qin Mutually."
"Your Highness, please speak."
King Huan said: "Before, the four kingdoms attacked Qin. I wonder what King Qin thought?"
He asked just because he wanted an answer. Liu Yuzhi said without pause: "As we all know, the Baize Alliance was a plan of the King of Jin. Huan Guo was just induced by clever words. My king is the current Ming Dynasty, how can he bring it into being?" Hatred transferred to Huan Guo."
As he spoke, he added: "I am here now, firstly, to advise His Highness King Huan, and secondly, on behalf of our country, to establish friendly relations with Huanguo."
After hearing this, King Huan couldn't help but ask: "Oh? Seriously?"
"Of course." Liu Yuzhi nodded directly.
At this time, another minister couldn't help it anymore and asked: "Is it possible that I have the full power to make the final decision regarding the war between the two countries?"
Liu Yuzhi looked at him and said in a calm voice: "I am the Prime Minister of Qin, and my seal is here, so why should I ask this question?"
