Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!

After hearing Gao Yao's remarks, Zhao Tuo couldn't help but frown. The reason was very simple. Normally, this military supervisor had nothing to do with Gao Yao. At first, Zhao Tuo thought that Gao Yao wanted to take this opportunity to ask for more military power. However, after hearing this, he felt that something was wrong.

"In this case, Gao Yao will take his leave first."

"Wait... Lord Gao Yao, you and I are both in this poor place, and we support each other. I have always regarded you as a brother. But now Lord Gao Yao is obviously unwilling to tell me the truth. I am afraid this is inappropriate."

Seeing that Gao Yao was really planning to leave, Zhao Tuo quickly stepped forward and grabbed Gao Yao's wrist. At this time, Zhao Tuo did not dare to gamble. Seeing Gao Yao's serious look, and the matter related to Master Hu Hai, if he was not careful, he might lose his job, which would be the least of his problems. At this time, Zhao Tuo did not dare to be careless.

"By the way, I recently heard that some restless people have appeared in the border areas of these counties. How about this? I will immediately dispatch 5,000 elite soldiers to Guilin and Xiangjun. How about that? This will also prevent Master Hu Hai from seeing that my southern border is unstable. We must cooperate sincerely."

"In that case, I would like to thank the general. In fact, this matter is very simple to explain."

Listening to Zhao Tuo's words, Gao Yao looked very excited on the surface, but in fact he had to sigh that this old guy was really too cunning. Originally, the three counties had at least 30,000 garrisons because they were located in the southern border, but whether to give them was their problem. When Ren Xiong was here, he used the excuse of insufficient troops to reduce the 30,000 troops to 10,000. Of the 10,000, only 3,000 were given at the beginning. The rest were obtained by Gao Yao from Zhao Tuo in subsequent battles to suppress bandits and deal with foreign races, or in exchange for benefits. Now he just waved his hand and gave 5,000 people, which was already a lot.

"General, since you know that Master Hu Hai is coming, do you know who is coming with Master Hu Hai?"

"This... is still unknown."

"Meng family, Meng Yi"

"Meng Yi?"

"General, you have been in the southern border for a long time, so it is normal that you don't know. The generals of the Meng family must know that Meng Tian is Meng Yi's biological brother."

"So what? What does this have to do with me?"

At this time, Zhao Tuo was still dumb and didn't react much, but Gao Yao reminded him again.

"General, General Ren Xiong is no longer in the southern border. It is such a coincidence that Your Majesty has asked Prince Hu Hai to supervise the army at this time. If it was Prince Fusu, it would be fine. But now it is Hu Hai who has come. This move must have a deep meaning."

"Secondly, the Meng family now controls 300,000 troops in the northern border. Shouldn't they avoid danger in the southern border? They shouldn't send people from the Meng family, but they chose to send people from the Meng family. In addition, General Ren Xiong is now in Xianyang. General Zhao Tuo, isn't this worth considering?"

Listening to Gao Yao's analysis, Zhao Tuo's expression changed slightly. He finally realized that Gao Yao was transferred to the southern border first, then Ren Xiong was transferred away, and now Hu Hai came to supervise the army, and the accompanying personnel were the Meng family, which His Majesty valued the most.

Under Gao Yao's guidance, Zhao Tuo finally understood that all these things were ultimately related to only two words: seizing power, and the power in his own hands.

"This...this...Lord Gao Yao, what should we do now?"

"General, you think too highly of Gao Yao. Gao Yao is just a Nanhai Wei. How can he be qualified to participate in such things? I came here this time because I am worried about you. I am good friends with you. I know that you look down on Gao Yao's background and think that it is Gao Yao who has delayed your work. But Gao Yao really admires you. Gao Yao has risked his entire fortune in this southern border. With this much money and energy, there is no place in the world that he can't go. It's just that Gao Yao has no choice but to do it."

"I came to inform you now because I am worried about you. If this matter is not handled properly, it will not only implicate General Ren Xiong. General Ren Xiong is now in Xianyang. If any deficiencies are found in the southern border's armaments, the responsibility will definitely be borne by the general. I am afraid that the general will become the victim of this game."

"Hiss... I'm a decent person, what can they use to frame me?"

"If the general was really not worried, why did he stop Gao Yao just now?"

Listening to Zhao Tuo's words of being too concerned about his reputation, Gao Yao spoke directly without any hesitation. What Gao Yao had to do now was very simple, that is, to win Zhao Tuo over to his side and make Zhao Tuo realize that both parties were on the same boat. This way, it would be much easier to deal with Yi Xiaochuan, and there would be more opportunities to take action against Hu Hai.

"What can you do?"

"If the person who came this time was Prince Fusu, we would have no way to deal with it. However, since it is Prince Huhai who came this time, there may be a chance for change."

"How to say"

"Mr. Hu Hai is only 28 years old now, and he has never been involved in military affairs. Naturally, he doesn't know much about the major events in the military camp. The general thinks that no matter what Meng Yi's purpose is, he will not tell Hu Hai about this matter."

"It's natural"

"In this case, this is our chance. I have ordered people to find out the time of Master Hu Hai's march. As soon as Master Hu Hai enters the southern border, my army will take over and then take Master Hu Hai into the city first. There are countless fun things in my city. After all, Hu Hai is young. With a little guidance, let Hu Hai stay in the city for a day or two to delay time. When we have to start supervising the army, Hu Hai will be happy by then. At that time, the supervisor of the army will indeed be Hu Hai, and the one accompanying him will be the supervisor and not Meng Yi. In this way, what Hu Hai sees and what he does is still up to the general, right?"

Hearing this, Zhao Tuo's eyes immediately showed excitement, and he couldn't help but admire Gao Yao's cleverness and wit.

"But what if Meng Yi insists on following Hu Hai?"

"General, this is the southern border"

"You're not going to..."

"Don't worry, General. Gao Yao is not so unwise. He just needs to delay time. Hu Hai is young at heart. He likes the colorful world in the city, fine wine and delicious food, but the military camp is full of the smell of sweat. It won't be long before Hu Hai gets tired of it and will naturally go back. It's just a matter of delaying for a while. As long as Hu Hai feels that there is no fun in the military camp, it will be enough. By then, if Meng Yi and his party mention the matter of military supervision again, Hu Hai will be annoyed. By then, our goal will be achieved."
