Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

As soon as Lu Buwei said these words, there was a low commotion in the hall.

Although what Lu Buwei said was relatively tactful, everyone could hear that it meant to persuade Qin Wangchu to run away quickly!

But the reason why the uproar was not so loud was naturally because many people thought so in their hearts, but no one dared to speak out.

Lu Buwei's words were like a sledgehammer hitting Qin Wangchu's heart heavily, which made him change color immediately.

run away?

Escape from Xianyang?

Escape from this capital that once brought countless brilliance to Daqin and witnessed the rise of Daqin?

Qin Wangchu's body began to tremble.

Qin Wangchu was not angry, because intellectually speaking, he knew that what Lu Buwei said was actually right.

Judging from the current situation, it is indeed quite difficult to defend this city of Xianyang.

But the problem is that if you give up Xianyang, that is tantamount to completely giving up the entire Guanzhong!

This is Guanzhong, the ancestral land of the old Qin people for hundreds of years!

If Guanzhong is really abandoned, what will be written in the history books in the future?What would the old Qin people think of Qin Wangchu?How did Qin Wangchu deal with himself?

Countless thoughts collided fiercely in Qin Wangchu's heart, and his complexion kept changing with the collision of these thoughts, and he was completely speechless for a while.

Qin Wangchu didn't speak, but that didn't mean no one spoke.

Cai Ze jumped up against the case and said angrily: "Mr. Wu Cheng, you are still here to shake the morale of the army at this time?! At this time of crisis, it is time for the king to lead the army and the people of the country to unite and stick to Xianyang, so that Zhao Jun can learn a lesson. The majesty of the people of Qin made Li Mu return home in Xianyang City! But what about you? You are talking nonsense here and bewitching the king to flee? What is your intention!"

Cai Ze's angry rebuke to Yizheng and his words were full of righteousness, which immediately made many Qin ministers who had the same thoughts as Lu Buwei in the hall bow their heads in shame.

However, what kind of person is Lu Buwei? Over the years, Lu Buwei has fought with Cai Ze countless times in the political arena of Qin State, and almost brought Cai Ze down several times. Naturally, it is impossible for Cai Ze to be defeated Just a few words were refuted.

Lu Buwei gave Cai Ze a hard look, and then said: "Gang Chengjun, it's all over now, so you don't have to talk nonsense here anymore. The current Daqin soldiers can't resist Zhao Jun's attack." Offensive, this is a fact, not something I made up at random! Moreover, the army was newly defeated, and the hearts of the army and the people in the entire Xianyang city were in turmoil. Most of the food and supplies in the city were transported to the front to support the army. Rulai Tell me, if you have no morale and no food and supplies, how can you hold on to this battle?"

Cai Ze was at a loss for words for a while, but immediately said: "As long as the king sits here, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Xianyang City will be able to unite as one, so it is impossible for Zhao Jun to break the city!"

"All in one heart?" Lu Buwei laughed mockingly: "If all in one can win, then this battle seems too simple. Gang Chengjun, you don't even think about it yourself. When Xianyang City was breached before, how could you win? The soldiers and civilians in this city are not united as one? In my opinion, when the Zhao army besieges the city, the people in this city are not united as one, but most of them want to save their lives!"

Cai Ze blushed, and said angrily, "Lu Buwei! You will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history in the future by beguiling the king to abandon the capital and flee!"

Cai Ze was obviously very angry, so he didn't even call Lu Buwei by his title, just called him by his first name.

Lu Buwei's face suddenly darkened, and he said coldly: "Gang Chengjun, please be more polite when you speak!"

Cai Ze snorted heavily and turned his head away.

Lu Buwei stood up, bowed to Qin King Chu, and then continued: "Your Majesty, when the Five Kingdoms attacked Qi, Qi State Linzi fell, but it was also recovered by Qi State. Later, Bai Qi attacked Chu, and the King of Chu moved his capital to Chen. , and now Yingdu is still in the hands of Chu State. This national struggle is not about one city or one place, but about luck, and the whole world! Now that Daqin is temporarily defeated, then temporarily avoid the edge of Zhao State What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty and everyone here should be aware of the dangers of the Shu road. It is the so-called land where one man guards the pass and ten thousand cannot open it. As long as you retreat to the land of Bashu, you can rely on a small number of elites to guard the pass, even if the number of Zhao troops is large. There are many, and there is no way to invade Bashu. You just need to recuperate in Bashu for a few years. When the world changes again, it will be the day when the king goes north to recover the lost land! So, isn’t it better than sitting in a sad city and being trapped to death by Zhao Jun Is it stronger in this city of Xianyang?"

After Lu Buwei said these words, many people in the hall were obviously shaken again.

A confidant of Lu Buwei stood up, bowed respectfully to King Chu of Qin, and said, "Your Majesty, I think what Wu Chengjun said is very reasonable. Now that the enemy army is strong, please move to the Chengdu Mansion as soon as possible." It is."

Another minister of the Qin State stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I also think that what Wu Chengjun said is very reasonable, and I also ask you to move to Chengdu."

One after another Qin ministers stood up and expressed their support for Lu Buwei with words and practical actions.

Compared with their family and country, to be honest, most people still value their lives and wealth more.

So when Lu Buwei gave this seemingly high-sounding excuse, the fleeing faction was finally unshackled by Lu Buwei.

For a moment, the whole hall was filled with turmoil, all of which were voices requesting King Qin Chu to move to Chengdu Mansion.

Cai Ze looked at all this with a livid face, and wanted to stop it, but after a while, he sighed in frustration and didn't say anything.

The general trend is over, and it is useless to say any words at this time.

You must know that Cai Ze saw very clearly just now that many ministers who usually only follow Cai Ze's lead are now standing on the side that makes King Qin Chu run away.

They are all a group of people who are greedy for life and afraid of death!

The collective remonstrance of the ministers was heard by the ears of King Qin Chu, which made the king of Qin feel quite complicated.

After a long time, Qin Wangchu finally couldn't help heaving a long sigh and said: "If I abandon Xianyang, what will I have to face the ancestors of the Great Qin in the future!"

Lu Buwei didn't continue after what he said just now, and let the ministers amplify the noise of moving the capital that he had made by himself. At this time, seeing Qin Wangchu's statement, he knew that it was almost time.

So Lu Buwei tidied up his sleeves slightly, stepped out from the crowd, knelt down in the center of the hall, and said in a deep voice: "Please put the Great Qin as the most important thing, and move to the Chengdu mansion quickly, otherwise, once the Zhao cavalry rushes away Come, then it will be too late!"

Behind Lu Buwei, many ministers of Qin State knelt down one after another, saying in unison: "Please move quickly to Chengdu Mansion, Your Majesty!"

Qin Wangchu looked at everything in front of him quietly, and finally let out a long sigh again after a long time: "Forget it, if this is the case, then pass on the order, and from now on, the widow will move to Chengdu!"

As soon as Qin Wangchu said these words, Cai Zeru who was on the side was hit hard, and he seemed to have aged ten years all of a sudden.

However, what everyone didn't expect was that Lu Buwei's words were not over yet.

Lu Buwei said slowly again: "Although the king moved to Chengdu, after all, the incident happened suddenly and it took a lot of time to arrange various matters. I am willing to stay in Xianyang to delay Zhao Jun and buy time for the king!"

Qin Wangchu's body shook, and he looked at Lu Buwei in disbelief.

Cai Ze also trembled violently, looking at Lu Buwei with suspicious eyes, countless expressions flashed across his old face.

There are ghosts, there must be ghosts!

Just when Cai Ze was about to speak, Qin Wangchu spoke first.

I saw Qin Wangchu trembled and said: "Wu Chengjun, are you going to abandon the widow?"

Lu Buwei's face was extremely determined, and he bowed three times to the king of Qin Chu, saying: "I was originally a merchant, but I was appreciated by the king, and even got a high position in the state. This kindness and virtue can hardly be repaid if I am broken! If this is the case, then let the minister stick to Xianyang for the king, so as to repay the kindness of the king!"

At the end, Lu Buwei was already in tears.

Qin Wangchu also had red eyes, and said with a trembling voice: "No, Lord Wu Cheng. You are the minister of the widow's humerus. How can the widow let you stay here alone? Without your assistance, how can the widow revive the Great Qin Dynasty?" ?”

"Your Majesty don't need to say any more!" Lu Buwei interrupted Qin Wangchu's words with a full face, and said in a deep voice: "I am a prime minister, but I can't assist the King to achieve hegemony and make the Great Qin stronger than the feudal lords. How can I evade the responsibility of the minister again? Please also ask the king to complete the minister, let the minister be the king and do one last loyalty for the great Qin!"

Lu Buwei's voice was decisive, revealing an incomparable determination.

Facing the "touching" situation in front of him, Cai Ze opened his mouth again and again, but he didn't know how to speak.

According to the records of later historians: "The emperor appointed Li Mu as the general to attack Qin, and defeated King Jian's army in Hexi. Li Mu took advantage of the situation and marched into Xianyang. Qin King Chu was terrified, and led his people to flee south to Bashu, leaving Xiangbang Lu Buwei to guard Xianyang alone."
