Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

Lu Buwei continued to sneer: "The result is that none of them were saved! Not only that, but it was because of your reckless suggestion that Daqin lost troops and generals in the wars of the past few years! If I had followed my recuperation method, the current Daqin should already have an army with enough fighting power!

This time, Qi State's disaster, if it can be stopped, it is its luck, if it cannot be stopped, it is time for it to perish.What Daqin should do should not be to rescue Qi, which is thousands of miles away, but to seize the opportunity to recuperate and consolidate and restore Daqin's strength!"

Cai Ze snorted, and said: "If you say so, then after the destruction of the six kingdoms in Shandong, can Daqin still be able to contend against Zhao Guo on its own?"

Lu Buwei snorted, and said, "Since you haven't tried it, how do you know it won't work? Don't underestimate the enthusiasm of the old Qin people to protect their homes and the country! As for the six countries in Shandong, after so many years, don't you know that these countries are just some Waste? If they really can't resist Zhao, then let them perish!"

The two of you come and go, arguing endlessly.

That's enough! Qin Wangchu finally couldn't hold back, and interrupted the two of them roughly: "The widow asked you to come up with ideas, not to let you scold the street like a shrew here!"

Lu Buwei and Cai Ze hurriedly confessed.

But things always have a result, so Lu Buwei said again: "What is going on with this matter, please ask your majesty to adjudicate."

Chapter 896 Wang Jian's Controversy (Second Update)

As soon as Lu Buwei finished speaking, everyone's eyes were on Qin Wangchu.

Although the political struggle between Lu Buwei and Cai Ze did cause internal friction in Qin to a certain extent, it was very beneficial to the establishment of the prestige of King Qin and Chu.

The so-called power, in detail, is nothing more than who can make decisions.

Whoever is the one who makes the final decision will have the ability to make the final decision.

The power of the monarch and the power of the ministers are opposites at any time, because there are only so many important things that a country can decide. powerful.

If this situation continues, it will eventually evolve into a situation where the three families divide Jin or the Tian family replaces Qi.

Therefore, in order to compete with the power of the ministers, the kings will consciously create some opposition among their courtiers, so that the power of the ministers will split itself.

When the power of the courtiers is split, and under the guidance of the king, they start to fight incessantly, then the power of the courtiers will fall into a process of self-infighting, and the power of the monarch will naturally become stable.

This is one of the reasons why there are many treacherous ministers in history, and many emperors will tolerate traitorous ministers, because kings need the division of ministers' power.

Today's Qin State is the best portrayal of this situation.

Among the people, in fact, many people are quite dissatisfied with Lu Buwei. The recuperation that Lu Buwei insisted on is considered by many old Qin people as a kind of appeasement policy, which is to bow to the Zhao people in exchange for humiliating peace.

Since Shang Yang's reform, the old Qin people have been strong for more than 100 years.

In the past 100 years, although there have been occasional major defeats such as the Battle of Hangu Pass or the Battle of Yanyu, in general, the momentum of Qin State has been continuously upward, and it is a high-spirited and majestic road. , Endeavor curve.

This has led to a situation where old Qin people are very confident.

Although it has been almost ten years since the Battle of Changping, and the state of Qin has fallen from its peak for almost ten years, the backbone of the old Qin people has not been broken, and there are still many old Qin people who are proud and confident Yes, they stubbornly believed that it was only a matter of time before they defeated Zhao Guo.

This part of the stubborn old Qin people hated Lu Buwei deeply, and they were Cai Ze's biggest supporters.

But there are also another part of the old Qin people, who are a little scared by Zhao Guo. They think that Zhao Guo is indeed an object that Qin State cannot compete with now, and they think that Qin State must swallow their anger and wait for the arrival of Zhao State's decline;

Others think that Qin State actually has the potential to defeat Zhao State, but because Qin State has lost too much in the past few years, it will take some time to recover, and it is best to make friends with Zhao State before that.

These people are Lu Buwei's supporters.

Therefore, the current state of Qin has actually produced two different political opinions and ideas. These two factions are completely opposite, so fierce conflicts are inevitable.

Although this kind of split allowed Qin Wangchu to firmly grasp the supreme power, it also planted the root of disaster.

This kind of disaster has fermented to the present, and it has completely activated the political struggle in Qin's political arena.

Whatever Lu Buwei approves, Cai Ze will definitely oppose, no matter whether the objection is right or wrong, whether it is beneficial or unfavorable to Qin.

And the reverse is also the same, as long as Cai Ze proposes something, Lu Buwei will definitely do his best to stop it.

Under such circumstances, Qin Wangchu didn't even know which side was right and which side was wrong.

But fortunately, Qin Wangchu still has a way.

After all, officials like Lu Buwei and Cai Ze are not the only ones in the political arena of Qin State.

"Wang Jian!"

Wang Jian came out in response and saluted Qin Wang Chu respectfully: "The minister is here!"

Qin Wangchu looked directly at Wang Jian: "Let me tell you, do you want to fight this battle?"

Since Wei Ran was expelled, Qin's military basically formed its own faction, and had little contact with the officials.

In the past, the military power was mainly in the hands of the Sima family and the Bai family, but in the past few years, with the succession of Wang Yan, Wang Ling, and Wang Jian, the Wang family has become the largest military family in Qin.

These military families are intertwined in the army. They are the people who know the combat effectiveness of the Qin army best, and they are also the people who know the thoughts of the soldiers best.

Whether the army can fight, dare to fight, these questions Qin Wangchu needs to get answers from Wang Jian.

Regarding Qin Wangchu's question, Wang Jian almost didn't think about it, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I think this battle must be fought!"

Qin Wangchu's eyes flickered slightly, and then he said, "Why?"

Wang Jian said: "My lord, forgive me for speaking bluntly, Wu Chengjun's opinion is actually very good. The current Daqin army is indeed no match for Zhao Jun. "

As soon as Wang Jian's words came out, there was a commotion in the hall, and even Qin Wangchu's expression couldn't help but change.

Although we all know this is the truth, but sometimes it is the truth that hurts people more!

Wang Jian didn't seem to see the faces of the people, but continued: "If the king asked the minister what he said ten years ago, the minister must support Wu Chengjun's idea and temporarily cease the war with Zhao Guo to wait for Daqin to fully recover. The strength is to compete with Zhao Guo. But the problem is that the current Daqin has no such time!"

"Now that Zhao's army is pressing down on the border, it is absolutely impossible for Qi's combat power to be the opponent of Zhao's people. If Daqin doesn't restrain Zhao from the west, then Qi will undoubtedly be destroyed."

"Once the state of Qi is destroyed, it is very likely that the state of Chu will be next. And even if Daqin sits back and watched the two countries fall, at most they can only buy Daqin two years. Two years is far from enough to make up for the current situation. The gap between Great Qin and Zhao!"

"That's why I believe that Daqin must take the initiative to attack, and launch an offensive on Zhao's western border while the main force of Zhao is far in the east to attack Qi. The combat power has been greatly improved, and secondly, Zhao Guo will be attacked on both sides, and the energy of Zhao Guo people will be restrained."

"If Your Majesty can still persuade the Chu army to go north, then the situation of the Three Kingdoms against Zhao is not necessarily so bad!"

Wang Jian's words were cadenced and contagious, which made many Qin ministers present nodded secretly.

Lu Buwei had a bad heart, and hurriedly said: "General Wang Jian, don't forget, what if Zhao people come to attack Guanzhong while you are leading the army eastward?"

Wang Jian glanced at Lu Buwei, and said with a smile: "Mr. Wu Cheng, don't forget that Li Mu has already gone to attack Qi."

"Okay, there's no need to talk about it." Qin Wangchu interrupted everyone's words: "I have already decided, I will take Wang Jian as the general and lead the army to attack Zhao!"

Qin Wangchu finally chose to believe in Wang Jian, not only because what Wang Jian said really moved Qin Wangchu, but also a more important point.

In the past few years, Wang Jian is the only Qin general who has not failed when facing Li Mu as the main general!

Although Wang Jian did not defeat Li Mu, just a draw was enough for Qin Wang Chu to give great trust to Wang Jian.
