"It's interesting, it's really interesting, this plateau actually pretended to be an envoy and sent an envoy to the Qi country." Qin Wangzheng laughed loudly and said: "I heard that he organized the captured Huns into an army last year, does Gao Yuan really plan to learn from King Zhao Wuling and engage in any more Hufu cavalry shooting?" ”

Although the main hall of the palace of the king of Qin is wide, but the grand and slightly hoarse voice of Qin Wangzheng, even if he stands in the corner, he can hear it very clearly, and he said with a smile: "King, the reorganization of the Huns and the Hufu cavalry are completely different things, the population of Daijun is sparse, and the Huns are all warriors who can conquer and fight, so the plateau will organize the captured Huns into an army and expand the military strength of Daijun, it is also reasonable, the cavalry of Zhao was originally crowned with other countries, although Li Mu died, but left an elite army to the plateau, There's really no need to do any more nonsense. ”

Suddenly weakened and said: "Qi has been ignoring the affairs of other countries for forty years, and has always been friendly with other countries, so even if Gao Yuan's body is exposed, Qi will not treat him well, maybe he will be more respectful, this is completely different from when King Zhao Wuling changed his name and pretended to be an envoy to Qin, I think the main purpose of Gao Yuan's envoy to Qi is to negotiate with the envoys of other countries. ”

Yao Jia also said: "Yes, when the minister was in the Qi State, he found that the plateau and the envoys of various countries had negotiated many times, and listened to what the envoy of the Chu State Jingtai said, it was indeed discussing the matter of cooperation, but what agreement they reached, Jingtai did not know, because Xiang Dong, the deputy envoy of the Chu State who participated in the consultation, did not tell Jingtai, of course, it is also possible that Jingtai lied, he knew the result of the negotiation between Gao Yuan and others, but did not sue him as a minister. ”

Qin Wangzheng nodded and said, "Then do you Aiqing think that our Qin State's attack on Wei should still be carried out?" ”

In fact, long before Yao Jia sent an envoy to Qi, Qin had already begun to mobilize troops, gather grain and grass, and prepare to attack Wei, and after Yao Jia returned to Qin from Qi, Qin had basically made all the preparations, and now only the person who was appointed to attack Wei was able to send troops to attack Wei, but at this moment, there was news from Qi that the plateau pretended to be an envoy and sent an envoy to Qi. So Qin Wangzheng also immediately recruited civil and military ministers to discuss the plan to defeat Wei.

At this time, Li Si came out and said: "Great King, the minister thinks that the cooperation of Gao Yuan and others is not a matter of concern, and it is imperative to take action to defeat Wei. ”

Qin Wang Zheng said: "How can Li Qing see that the combination is not a concern? ”

Li Sidao: "First of all, the Qi State has made it clear that it will not join the United Column, and without the Qi State, the momentum of the United States will be weakened by nearly half; Speaking of the state of Chu, this time to the state of Qi, only the state of Chu sent two envoys, one is friendly with our state of Qin, and the other is involved in the negotiation of the joint column, whether it is intentional or the position of the two is very different, but the attitude of the state of Chu is obviously the two ends of the first mouse, plus the first few times of the alliance, the state of Chu has suffered heavy losses, so the minister thought that the state of Chu would never join this alliance, at most he said in the name that he would support the state of Wei, but he would not send troops to support the state of Wei. If the two great powers of Qi and Chu did not join, then the alliance would exist in name only. ”

Qin Wangzheng nodded and said, "Then what about the two countries of the Yan Dynasty?" ”

Li Si said: "Yan has always been weak, and last year it was defeated in Dai, 200,000 troops were wiped out, there is no need to worry, so only Daijun can go all out to rescue Wei, although the combat effectiveness of Daijun's soldiers is strong, better than other countries, but after all, the national strength is too small, more than enough to defend the land, but if you want to rescue Wei, you can't do it." Therefore, the minister thought that this time the merger was not a cause for concern, and the move of defeating Wei could not be changed. ”

Qin Wangzheng thought for a while, looked around at the ministers, and said, "What do you Aiqing think of Li Qing's words?" ”

The ministers looked at each other and were silent, because after the destruction of Zhao and Han, the next target was the Wei State, and after the destruction of the Wei State, not only all the land of the Three Jin Dynasty was occupied, but also the entire Central Plains region was included in the version of the Qin State, so that the general trend of unifying the world was almost unstoppable, this is the strategic plan that the Qin State had long formulated, and if there were no major changes, it should not be changed.

In addition, Li Si's attitude just now has been very obvious, that is, to firmly implement this strategic plan, although Li Si is not the prime minister of Qin, but everyone knows that he is the most trusted minister of Qin Wangzheng, and his power is far above that of Prime Minister Wang Xuan, what he said basically represents the attitude of Qin Wangzheng, so no one dares to speak out against it. Of course, the vast majority of personnel agree that there is no need to change the strategic plan that has been laid out long ago.

And at this moment, Han Teng stepped out of the column and said, "The king, the minister thinks that the move of cutting down Wei should be slowed down. ”

This sentence immediately attracted the attention of all the people in the hall to focus on him, many people were very strange, although at this time Han Teng had been promoted to the general, qualified to participate in the discussion of the major affairs of the court, but he generally rarely spoke in the court, and everyone could understand, because Han Teng was an outsider after all, although he made great contributions in the two battles of destroying Han and Zhao, the Qin State did not doubt his loyalty, but he surrendered to the Qin State for only four or five years, and he was promoted to the position of the general at once, although the merit was enough, But the qualifications are still a little worse, so if you talk too much, you will lose, and if you can't speak, of course, it's better not to speak. What's more, on such an occasion, it is also questioning the strategic plan that Qin State has long formulated. The ministers also showed various expressions, some surprised, some disdainful, some dissatisfied, and some surprised.

Qin Wangzheng's expression did not change much, still with a faint smile, and said: "Han Qing thinks that my Qin State will not attack the Wei State, so what should I do?" ”

Han Teng said: "Replace the county first, and then destroy the Wei State." ”

Qin Wangzheng said: "Can Han Qing explain in detail?" ”

Han Teng said: "King, although Daijun is small, but it is the old land of Zhao State, the people are brave, martial and warlike, and I have always had an enmity with the Qin State, now the lord of Daijun Plateau is proficient in the art of war, the ability to use soldiers is not in Li Mu, most of the soldiers under his command are Li Mu's old troops, all are soldiers of a hundred battles, and the combat effectiveness is strong, not under my Daqin army, and the plateau is not only good at using soldiers, but also good at governing the country, it only took more than two years, so that Daijun has changed its old appearance, showing a prosperous trend, and through Guò and Qi opened trade routes, obtained a large number of materials, over time, This person will definitely become the primary rival of our Qin State to unify the world, and we should take advantage of its fledgling to cut it off first, if we wait for its momentum to become successful, I am afraid it will be a big trouble for our Qin State. ”

Qin Wangzheng also nodded slightly, and said: "What Han Qing said is not unreasonable, but my Qin State will destroy Wei State first, and then destroy Dai County, is it difficult?" ”

Han Teng shook his head and said: "Although the Wei State is weak, but the high walls of the Great Liang City are strong, it is difficult to overcome, if you add the reinforcements of the Dai County, I don't know how long the siege will be, so even if my Qin State can break through the Great Liang and destroy the Wei State, it will inevitably take a long time and cost a lot of money. On the contrary, if my Qin army feigned to attack Wei, attracted the Dai army to send a large army to aid Wei, took advantage of the emptiness of Daijun's troops, and attacked Daijun by surprise, it could be destroyed with one blow, and then return to attack Wei, so that Dai Wei can be determined. ”

Qin Wangzheng thought about it seriously, looked at the ministers again, and said, "What do you Aiqing think?" ”

Li Si immediately stepped out and said, "The minister thinks that General Han's words are not feasible. ”

Qin Wangzheng said: "Why? ”

Li Si said: "Zhao and Han are destroyed, Wei is in the hinterland of my Qin State, and it is a compromise place, Wei is not destroyed for a day, Zhao and Han are unstable for a day, they should be captured as soon as possible, not for a long time, and if it is late, it is afraid of changes, and Dai County is located in a remote area, and it is also a strategic place, it is not a top priority, and whether the plateau has the material to govern the country or not, but Dai County is sparsely populated, and there is not much real estate, even if the trade route is opened with Qi State, it is also subject to others, and it is difficult to guarantee it for a long time, so even if the plateau is the reincarnation of Guan Zhong and the resurrection of Shang Jun, let alone in a few years, Even if he is given twenty years, he will not be able to make Daijun strong enough to compete with my Qin State. Therefore, the minister thought that the move of destroying Wei could not be changed. ”

Qin Wangzheng pondered for a while, and then said, "What does the general think?" ”

Wang Jian heard Qin Wangzheng call his name, and then he came out and said: "Back to the king, the minister thinks that the prime minister's words are very true, and he should destroy the Wei State first, and then attack the Dai County." Although Daijun is small, the terrain is quite good, and the number of soldiers is brave, as long as we hold the Hongshangsai, reject our Qin army, and then harass our grain road with light horses. The superiority of the Daijun cavalry is still above our Qin army, and the Daijun is familiar with the terrain, which will inevitably make our Qin army tireless, so the difficulty of attacking Daijun may not be under the enterprising beam. ”

Qin Wang Zheng said: "But if as Han Qing said, the plateau takes advantage of the time when my Qin State is attacking the Wei State and sends troops to collect Zhao Land, what should I do?" ”

Wang Jian shook his head and said: "The minister thinks it won't, now there is General Meng stationed in Zhaodi, the garrison is as many as 100,000, although it is not enough to enter the county, but there should be more than enough self-defense, not to mention that this time it is the attack of the Dai army, our Qin army defends, and the cavalry advantage of the Dai army is difficult to play, and as long as our Qin army holds the first line of the well path, the high base is deep, and it is difficult for the Dai army to do anything, on the contrary, the Wei State is now weak, and it is not vulnerable at all, even if the high walls of the Liang City are thick, it is not enough to worry, because the minister has come up with a plan, just within this year, you can break through the Liang. ”

When Qin Wangzheng heard this, he was immediately interested, and said, "What is the best plan for Qing, you can break the beam." ”

Wang Jian said: "Daliang City is low-lying, as long as the water of the Yellow River is diverted and irrigated, at most three cangs, you can break through Daliang City." ”

Qin Wangzheng said: "The Yellow River is still dozens of miles away from Daliang City, if the water of the Yellow River is diverted to irrigate it, isn't it a huge project?" ”

Wang Jian said: "Back to the king, although the Yellow River is far away from Daliang City, but the chasm goes south just outside Daliang City, the distance is close, but hundreds of steps, so the water is diverted to irrigate Daliang, the water mouth is not in the Yellow River, and in the chasm, but the chasm is not large enough, it is necessary to fill the water from the upper end of the Yellow River, in order to become its potential, the minister asked Zheng Guo, so the project only needs one month. ”
