Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

Since it is not clear why Hou came, Cai Ze was not in a hurry to express his attitude.

Hou laughed: "Mr. Gang Cheng doesn't need to be so wary of me. Let me tell you the truth. I came to visit Mr. Gang Cheng this time because I hope that Mr. Gang Cheng can facilitate the alliance of nations to attack Zhao."

Cai Ze lifted his spirits and subconsciously asked, "Is this the order of the king?"

Hou shook his head lightly, and said, "This is the order of an old minister who is loyal to Great Qin."

Cai Ze stared at Hou tightly, and said after a long time, "This is not what Hou should say."

Hou showed a slight smile, and said: "When people get old, their thoughts will naturally increase. This is normal."

"Your Majesty won't agree to this plan." Cai Ze shook his head and said, "Otherwise, the last court meeting wouldn't have ended like that."

"No." Hou said: "Mr. Gang Cheng should know that the king's ears are actually very soft. As long as he can be persuaded more, then he will easily change his position."

Cai Ze snorted, and said, "But there is still Lu Buwei! Lu Buwei has won the trust of the king, and the weight of his words is not comparable to that of you and me!"

Hou nodded, and said: "That's true. But has Mr. Gang Cheng thought about it, if Mr. Wu Cheng can no longer exert influence on the king?"

Cai Ze's eyes lit up all of a sudden, and he almost couldn't wait to say: "Why, do you have a handle on Lu Buwei?"

Hou shook his head and said: "Mr. Wu Cheng is a watertight person. Although I have been monitoring him for a long time, the few things I got are not enough to shake his trust in the king's heart."

Disappointment immediately appeared on Cai Ze's face. He knew very well that Lu Buwei's status came from Qin Wangchu's trust. As long as Qin Wangchu's trust in Lu Buwei could be shaken, it would not be very difficult to drive Lu Buwei away. things.

In fact, this is also the sorrow of all the ministers. As long as they are not trusted by the king, they will get out sooner or later.

But now even the secret intelligence leader can't catch Lu Buwei's handle, which is enough to prove how cautious Lu Buwei is on weekdays, so it is basically impossible to get Lu Buwei out of office through this method up.

Hou looked at Cai Ze calmly, and said, "Mr. Gang Cheng may have misunderstood. My intention is not to defeat Mr. Wu Cheng, but to transfer Mr. Wu Cheng away from Xianyang. As soon as Mr. Wu Cheng leaves Xianyang, then Mr. Gang Cheng With the ability of the king, it should not be difficult to convince the king, right?"

Only then did Cai Ze come to his senses, and said with some doubts: "Then how should we transfer Lu Buwei away from Xianyang?"

Hou said: "There are two reasons. First of all, a rebellion broke out in Bashu this year, so Lord Wu Cheng can go south to Bashu to quell the rebellion. Second, if the war in Yiqu is unfavorable, Lord Wu Cheng can also go north to lead the army."

Only then did Cai Ze suddenly realize that he slapped his thigh and said, "Wonderful, wonderful! If that's the case, then let us plan this matter carefully."

That night, many of Cai Ze's confidants were secretly summoned to Cai Ze's mansion, and the lights in the study were kept on all night long.

Chapter 764 Battle on the Southern Front (Supplement [-])

A few days later, at the regular court meeting of the State of Qin, Cai Ze suddenly made an opinion.

"Your Majesty, the current battle in Yiqu Country is very difficult. Judging from the current situation, I feel that with the two generals Wang Lu and Wang Ling, there is no way to pacify the canal."

As soon as Cai Ze said these words, the hearts of many Qin ministers jumped slightly, knowing that another good show was about to happen.

The entire Qin court knew that the attack on Yiqu was due to the strong request of Xiangbang Lu Buwei. Now that Cai Ze suddenly used this issue to launch an attack, he knew without thinking that it must be aimed at Lu Buwei.

Sure enough, Lu Buwei's face changed when he heard the words, and he glared at Cai Ze and said to Cai Ze: "What does Mr. Gang Cheng mean by this? Today, half of the Yiqu country has been recovered by the army. Even their The capital city has already been conquered by the soldiers of the Great Qin Dynasty, if this is still no progress, then what is the real progress?"

Cai Ze laughed loudly, and said to Lu Buwei: "Mr. Wu Cheng's words are wrong, but I heard that the people of Yiqu gave up the capital on their own initiative, which allowed the two generals Wang Lu and Wang Ling to occupy Yiqu without any effort. It is the capital of the Qu people. Moreover, it is said that the two generals Wang Lu and Wang Ling were completely helpless against the guerrilla attacks of the Yi Qu people recently. To the ambush of Yiqu people."

"Besides, these two generals' food and grass delivery troops have been repeatedly harassed by Yiqu people, so the two generals had to send a large number of troops to protect the food and grass routes. If this is the case, the two generals will How much energy can I continue to fight against the Yiqu people on the plateau?"

Qin Wangchu immediately changed his face when he heard this, and asked Lu Buwei: "Wu Chengjun, are you serious?"

Lu Buwei hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Back to the king, although there are indeed some temporary difficulties on the Yiqu battlefield, I can assure the king that these difficulties can be overcome. It will only take a year at most. The two generals will definitely destroy the Yiqu country and give the king a satisfactory answer."

As soon as Qin Wangchu heard Lu Buwei's words, his face immediately showed an expression of displeasure, and said to Lu Buwei: "Wu Chengjun, the population of this Yiqu country is only 3, and the number of people who can fight is only [-] to [-]. People, can it be said that even the [-] troops of the Great Qin, with only a handful of people, can't defeat this small Yiqu country?"

Qin Wangchu's words contained obvious reproach, which made Lu Buwei speechless for a while.

Just when Lu Buwei was thinking about what to say to reduce his responsibility, Cai Ze suddenly said: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, the chaos in Yiqu is mainly caused by the people of Yiqu. If Yiqu If the common people are not willing to follow the nobles of Yiqu to cause chaos, then the chaos in Pingqu will naturally be a matter of course. Therefore, I ask the king to send a capable minister to Yiqu to appease the people. As long as they can successfully appease the people of Yiqu , then the nobles of Yiqu and the so-called king of Yiqu are rootless ducks, and the chaos in Yiqu can be put down."

The reason why they kept saying it was the Yiqu Rebellion actually meant that they did not recognize Yiqu Sheng as an independent country, but believed that Yiqu was still a part of Qin.

After Qin Wangchu heard Cai Ze's words, he immediately became happy again, and asked Cai Ze: "Since this is the case, which minister Gang Cheng thinks I should send to Yiqu?"

As soon as the words fell, Cai Ze looked at Lu Buwei.

Lu Buwei yelled in his heart that something was wrong, and when he was about to speak, Cai Ze spoke first: "My lord, I think that Wu Chengjun, Lu Buwei is well-versed in martial arts, and he is very prestigious in the Great Qin, it is Ping who defines him." The perfect choice."

Three days later, Lu Buwei, who was very depressed, led [-] soldiers and horses to leave Xianyang and headed for the capital of Yiqu Kingdom.

The news of Lu Buwei's departure from Xianyang was sent back to Handan City by Hu Yiwei as quickly as possible.

After Zhao Dan heard the news, he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Why was Lu Buwei transferred out of Xianyang at such a juncture? Could it be that the Qin people are planning to plot against the widowed Zhao State?"

But obviously, although Zhao Dan is a time traveler, time travel does not mean omniscience and omnipotence, so he still doesn't know that there is a conspiracy in Xianyang City that is silently attacking him and the mighty State of Zhao .

On the other side, the news from the battlefield of Wei State immediately attracted Zhao Dan's attraction.

On Wei's southern battlefield, Wei's general Tian Chong actually led tens of thousands of Wei troops in his hands, defeating the people of Chu again.

"The Chu people actually lost?" After hearing this sentence, Zhao Dan's eyes couldn't help but widen, and a very surprised expression appeared on his face.

In Zhao Dan's view, the current state of Wei is almost a dying creature. To be defeated by such a dying creature, isn't it too weak?

Soon, Zhao Dan got a further report on the battle situation.

It is actually very simple to say, that is, the four words are surprising.

After Tian Chong fought with the Chu army for many days, he found that the morale of the soldiers under his command was slowly declining as the Zhao State in the north was pressing harder and harder. It seemed that they could not last long.

So Tian Chong was helpless, and finally came up with a very risky strategy, which was to send envoys to the camp of Chu State, and declare that he was ready to surrender to the people of Chu State.

For this point, the two main generals of the Chu army, Huang Xie and Jing Jing, were naturally very happy to see it, so after the two sides had a serious negotiation, the people of Chu, who had completely let go of their guard, swaggered and sent troops to receive them. Wei Jun's manpower and camp.

But at this time, under the leadership of Tian Chong, the well-prepared Wei army suddenly launched a full-line attack on the Chu people. The Chu people, who were completely unprepared, had an advantage in numbers and combat effectiveness, but But it was still directly defeated by Wei Jun after a bloody battle.

Huang Xie and Jingyang fled for hundreds of miles with the remnants of the defeated generals, and only then did they gain a firm footing again.

"Idiots, what a bunch of idiots!" Zhao Dan was speechless after hearing these reports. He didn't expect the people of Chu State to be so disheveled. Even Tian Chong, who was already on the verge of extinction, had never fought.

Zhao Dan thought for a while, and then told the Zhao ministers in front of him: "In this case, then send an order to Le Cheng, let him speed up the attack on Suiyang City, and strive to capture Suiyang City as soon as possible. , and then continue to go south to completely eliminate Tian Chong and Wei Guo!"

Since the state of Chu is so useless, it is my duty to eliminate the state of Wei!

Chapter 765 Sui Yang Breaks (Part [-])

Suiyang City.

The commander of the Zhao army, Le Cheng, stood on a chariot in full armor. Beside him, countless soldiers of the Zhao state surrounded him, and countless red flags were flying fiercely in the air.

A few miles in front of Le Cheng is the city of Suiyang, which Le Cheng has been defending for a month so far that Le Cheng has been unable to break through. Duan Ganzi, who has no way to retreat, leads all the military forces under his command to defend here. , vowed to block Zhao Guoren's attack.
