Chapter 99 Operational Planning

Looking at the strange changes in front of him, Lu Buwei completely fell into madness, looking up to the sky and roaring, his wish for many years was finally achieved, even if the truth could never be broken, even if he couldn't hear the expected father, even if he was infamous through the ages, he also had no regrets, looking at the blood fist clenched in front of him, at that moment it seemed to be back in the past, a businessman was rich in the world, but unfortunately he could not get the respect he deserved, and his desire for power sprouted for the first time, and he even did not hesitate to gamble with all his belongings that he fell to the son of Zhao at that time. That is, the later King of Qin, it turned out that Yiqiē was right, and now he is in power, and the lost property of the year has been recovered, and the strength of the caravan has also increased.

The cronies stepped in, the whole person was stunned, the expression on Xiang Ye's face was extremely weird, and he vaguely heard a strange sound in the room, could it be that Xiang Ye couldn't make it.

"Come in."

The cronies quickly came to the front, "Xiangye, General Meng Fu of the 61st has returned to Xianyang." ”

"Meng Fu, it should be in the military camp at this time, why didn't you suddenly return to Xianyang with an order." Lu Buwei couldn't help but be surprised, and the appearance of everyone in Xianyang City now would inevitably have an impact on the current situation.

The cronies nodded, "The spies who planted the barracks reported that someone went to the barracks to deliver the letter, so they returned overnight." ”

"Have you figured out who he is?"

"Xianyang patrols Qin Xiong."

"It's him!"

Lu Buwei suddenly remembered that he had seen this person in Cheng Jiao's Mansion that day, the patrol camp seemed to have a small official position and held heavy power, and most of the Xianyang city defense forces were concentrated in the hands of the four patrol battalions, which originally had nothing to do with him, but now it is different, Qin Xiong is Cheng Jiao's person, and he went to the military camp to deliver a letter today, could it be that Meng Yu is also on Cheng Jiao's side, plus the old fox Sima Terrier, Zheng'er has completely fallen into disadvantage, no, this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed to happen.

Lu Buwei's eyes widened, and an invisible killing intent emanated from his body, and his cronies saw it in his eyes, and he was most clear when he followed Xiangye on weekdays, "Xiangye, have you taken any action?" ”

"Don't worry, how is it in Xianyang City?"

The man said: "It's normal, but the Zhao State caravan has made a big move recently!" ”

"How big?"

"Buying cloth and grain at a high price, the periphery of Xianyang City was almost completely purchased by the Zhao State caravan, and now it is purchased from other caravans in Xianyang City."

"Order the Chamber of Commerce to pay close attention, and never do it unless it is absolutely necessary."

Qin and Zhao are mortal enemies, after all, those are grievances between countries, caravans are not mixed in, plus caravans from all over the country have business dealings in various places, no matter how they fight on the battlefield, they must not move the idea of caravans, this is the rule can not be changed, once the Chamber of Commerce takes action, other chambers of commerce will inevitably endanger themselves, and then the Qin State will lose the support of the Chamber of Commerce, the former prosperity will inevitably not be there, the Chamber of Commerce is not as profitable as the capital, you can move around, where is it profitable to gather quickly immediately, although Han and Wei were destroyed by Zhao, There are still chambers of commerce between the two countries in the territory of Qin, and the scale is also not small.

"Don't worry, these jumping clowns can't jump out of the palm of our hands."

"You can't let your guard down at any point, especially at this juncture."

"There has been a change in the Qin country?" The man seemed to hear something from the words, and Lu Buwei couldn't help frowning as he spoke, and sighed softly, so that he was even more sure of his guess.

"Don't ask or care, do your own thing, go, everything inside and outside Xianyang City must be clear."

The cronies promised to leave quickly, Lü Buwei's caravan was all over Qin, and he secretly cultivated many good hands, the first to protect the safety of the caravan, the second to serve himself when he encountered something, and the third to be absolutely loyal to himself, Lü Buwei was suspicious, and only by carefully cultivating the caravan dead soldiers could he rest assured.

Lu Buwei stood up, he had to meet this person for a while before Meng Fu and Sima Terrier met, otherwise he would inevitably suffer a loss in the face of two opponents, so he made up his mind to order someone to prepare a carriage and go straight to the 61st General's Mansion.

Meng Biao led his own soldiers back to Xianyang, hesitated in his heart, Qin Meng did not say it, but mentioned that it was related to the great cause of Qin, the most critical of which was Sima Terrier's letter, asking Meng Biao to return to Xianyang to discuss important matters, the two armies confronted, Zhao Guo built fortifications high, and Li Mu led tens of thousands of elites to garrison, the two sides just confronted, and there was no need to worry about the old general Wang Ling.

Meng Fu returned to the house, "Is there any news from Meng Tian?" ”

The general hurriedly said: "The young general defeated the army of Chu in one fell swoop, and now the three-way army is advancing together, as soon as the king of Chu strives for peace, the army will return to Xianyang after the border is stabilized." ”

Meng Fu laughed, "Okay, good fight, worthy of my Meng Fu's grandson." Meng Biao was overjoyed in his heart, compared to Meng Tian, who was better at commanding troops, and his eldest son Meng Wu was also inferior.

"My father didn't give me a word when he returned to Xianyang."

Meng Wu walked inside, Meng Wu was strong, his hair was gray, and he couldn't help but worry about running back and forth.

"There's nothing going on in the army, so come back and see."

"The army is hard, the father simply resigned from the military position, and the children have a lot of filial piety."

"No need, the Qin people are proud of dying on the battlefield, and they will fight for their father all their lives, as long as this old bone can still wear armor, they will never give up if they wield their weapons."

Meng Wu was helpless, he knew his father's temper the most, and the family quickly stepped inside, "General, Lu Xiangye asks to see you outside the door." ”

"Lu Buwei, what a long eyeliner." Meng Fu had just returned to the house, and before he could sit down, Lu Buwei had already arrived.

"Father." Meng Fu was unmoved, and Meng Wu hurriedly reminded that Lü Buwei was in control of the power, and all matters in the Qin State had to go through the Xiangguo Mansion, and after deliberation, Lü Buwei would decide whether to hand it over to the king for approval, which could be described as a great power.

"Check it out."

Meng Wei got up and walked straight to the door, Lu Buwei smiled, "Old general." ”

"Lu Xiangye."

"The old general contributed to the battlefield for the country, and now I have to hear that the old general has come to visit him when he returns to his home." Lü Buwei's words were full of politeness, the two of them talked about the official position Lü Buwei should be above Meng Fu, and the status of Meng Fu in the eyes of the king was also incomparable, the most important point is that Meng Tian was promoted to a general at a young age to lead the troops and horses, and it was also highly recommended by Lü Buwei.

"Xiangye is polite, please inside."

The two entered, Meng Wu followed behind, also serving in the Xiangguo Mansion, several people entered the hall, someone brought refreshments, Lu Buwei asked about the situation at the border pass, and Meng Fu said them one by one.

Lu Buwei sighed, "The crisis of the Chu State has been solved, and now is the time to attack Zhao on a large scale, but unfortunately Xianyang is unstable, and Buwei is powerless." ”

When it came to attacking Zhao Mengqiu, he suddenly became interested, and he was born as a fierce general, he must be keen on war, and he has long been accustomed to the sound of battlefield fighting, and only in the sound of fighting can he experience the feeling of blood boiling, and the whole person is also satisfied.

"Xiangye, what do you mean by this?"

Lu Buwei leaned closer, "The king is seriously ill. ”

"How strict is zhòng?"

"It's hard to say, no one dares to draw conclusions about this kind of thing, but it's a big thing to lose your head." After Lu Buwei finished speaking, his eyes secretly looked at Meng Fu.

Meng Fu's expression also changed when he heard this, and his gray beard trembled, and he could imagine the shock in his heart, this kind of thing Lu Buwei can say enough to see that he trusts himself, just like what Fang just said, but it is a big thing to lose his head.

"What does Xiangye think?"

"Choose the best to stabilize the country."

"Xiangye is thoughtful and admired."

"It's easy to say, but it's going to be difficult to do."

Meng Fu said: "What the prime minister in Xianyang City can't do, I'm afraid others don't even dare to think about it!" ”

Lü Buwei said with a smile: "General Shang 61 said that Lu Mou is ashamed, the matter of establishing a prince is related to the national fortune of Qin, Lü Buwei is always an outsider, this kind of thing is not easy to get ahead, I just hope to be able to stand according to the king's will, and not be swayed by others." ”

Meng Fu smiled indifferently, "Xiangye must have a suitable candidate in his heart!" ”

Lu Buwei shook his head, "Failed!" ”

Meng Fu is bold by nature, this kind of thing is too big, "Since the Xiangguo adults can't make a decision, this matter is inevitably troublesome." ”

Lu Buwei said with a smile: "Buwei must follow the will of the king and choose the meritocracy, but how to choose the law can only be decided after consulting with General Shang 61." ”

"Meng Fu is a rough man, he only knows how to go into battle to kill the enemy, if he really wants to come up with a way, there is only one point."

"General 61, please speak."

"In the battle on the battlefield, the Qin people have always been proud of their bravery, and as a prince, they should be strong and healthy, and he will be able to inherit the throne in the future."

"In the words of General 61, the first king succeeded to the throne for only two years, and the same is true for the current king's succession, the Qin State can no longer endure too many tribulations, and it is inevitable to be arbitrary with military theory alone, and I think that it should be tested by virtue, knowledge, and martial arts."

"Good!"

Meng Fu took the case, "As long as it is fair, Meng Fu will definitely fully support Xiangye." ”

Lu Buwei also stood up, "I have no shame for the sky, and I must be worthy of the king's trust and the millions of people of Daqin." ”

"General."

One person walked in quickly, and when he saw Lu Buwei's words stopped, Meng Fu glanced at him, "Xiangye is his own person, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"Lord Shangqing has arrived."

Lu Buwei said with a smile: "It's just right to come, if this matter is not Lord Shangqing, it is really difficult to make a decision." ”

Meng Fu nodded, "Xiangye is reasonable. ”

Sima Jiao's eyes were slightly closed, after all, he was old, even if his favorite sunlight on weekdays also became dazzling, if it weren't for Cheng Jiao, he would definitely not spend so much thought, one of which was also for Cheng Jiao's biological mother, his granddaughter.

"Lord Shangqing."

Sima Terrier squinted his eyes, and Lu Buwei and Meng Wei walked out side by side, their expressions unchanged at all, so the city government is admirable, "Lord Shangqing." ”

"Lord Xiangguo, General 61!"

"It's better to talk about it inside."

The three of them entered, Sima Terrier was silent, and Lu Buwei's appearance was also unexpected, and he rushed to the news immediately, not wanting to be a step slower, once someone got involved, it would be troublesome.

Meng Fu coughed, the two were silent, the atmosphere was embarrassing, he was always the lord in his own house, "Since the two of you are here, simply turn on the sky lantern and say bright words, the king is determined to establish a prince, choose the virtuous and stand, Meng Fu 10,000 in favor, as long as it can make the Qin State prosperous and achieve hegemony, this old bone can also be blinded by the death of the battlefield in the future." ”

Sima Terrier smiled, "What does Lord Xiangguo mean?" ”

Lü Buwei said: "Obey the king's order and choose the virtuous." ”

"The kings and grandsons have different qualifications, and they also have their own strengths, and it is inevitable that the selection of talents will not be convincing!"

Lu Buwei stood up, "The three exams are decided, the literary examination is presided over by Lord Shangqing, the prime minister is responsible for governing the country, and the martial arts examination is annoying to the 61st general, so whether the three exams are virtuous can be seen by themselves, what do you think?" ”

"Well, that's the fairest thing to do." Meng Fu clapped his hands in agreement, Sima Terrier sat there and thought secretly, the literary examination is a steady victory with Cheng Jiao's knowledge, and as for the way of governing the country, it is also not inferior to others, in comparison, the only thing that suffers is martial arts, and it is enough to occupy two.

"Since Lord Xiangguo and General Shang 61 agree, the old man also has no objection, as long as it is not unfair, he will definitely not interfere."

"Without further ado, the palace will choose a prince in ten days!"
