......

"Get up quickly, and don't be so polite. ”

The people of the Flying Feather Army knelt down as soon as they saw Li Xiaokuan, obviously already knowing that Li Xiaokuan had become the new King of Qin.

"I'm here to discuss things with you, not to see you to salute me."

"Then how to do it, when I see the king, how can the grass people not kneel. ”

At this time, Su Yi opened his mouth and said, "Brother Niu, you don't have to be angry, the king has already taught those old guys a lesson." ”

"I'm so angry, Xiao Su, you also hurry up and kneel. ”

A man named Niu Shan greeted Su Yi, and Su Yi had to shake his head helplessly.

"The king called you up, but you don't stand up, it's disrespectful to the will......"

Hearing this, Niu Shan's face was a little displeased: "Xiao Su, how can you learn to play an official tone now?"

"Because he is the official. ”

Li Xiaokuan said.

"Why are you playing petty like those old officials?"

"Those who are officials look down on those who are not officials, and those who are not officials look down on those who are officials, why do you all like to distinguish respect and inferiority so clearly?"

"Shouldn't it be clear?"

Someone questioned.

"No!" Li Xiaokuan replied categorically.

"In my opinion, the essence of being an official and being a citizen is a Qin person, but they are in a different position, and being an official leads the people, that is to make the people's life better, are they born to be officials? No, many of them used to be people, but because they have the ability, they became officials. ”

"So what do these of them who have become officials more than the rest of the people? I don't think it's the dignity you think, but a kind of responsibility! They can call the people under them, but only if they have to think about the people, otherwise they are not worthy of being officials. ”

"After becoming an official, the people have the most say in what they do, and if they don't do well, they will be punished. This was still the case in the peaceful era, but today the Qin State is in trouble, and those who still choose to continue to be officials of the Qin State have a kind of courage?"

"Besides, dignity and humility, status represents power in the peaceful era, so now, what is the difference between me and you? Aren't they all living with their heads pinned to their belts?"

"Oh, that should still be a little different, for example, if we run away together, the enemy can only shoot one person with arrows, who do you think he will shoot?"

"So when you are now an official of the Qin State, you must not only have the ability, but also have the courage and the determination to die for the Qin State. ”

"Do you have any?"

Li Xiaokuan said, with a wave of his big hand, a large number of seals fell to the ground.

"If you think you have it, come up and pick it, the size of the official position is a bit of a vain, but the power brought by it should not be in vain, first come, first served, the Tai Lieutenant's has been taken away by Su Yi. ”

When Su Yi heard this, she took out the official seal of the captain and shook it.

Everyone was dumbfounded when they looked at the official seals scattered on the ground, all of them belonged to some general, this is too casual.

"Now we can discuss something, shall we?"

"Also, don't bow when you see me in the future, I want to be your comrade-in-arms more than being your king. ”

"Now that the national weapon is back, we also have the strength to fight. Therefore, the top priority now is to gather strength. ”

"But the Qin people have been too scattered over the years, and even the forces we are now in Wangbei City, after seven years, are only a few hundred people. ”

Everyone gathered around to discuss their next move.

In the Flying Feather Army, there was a young man who was a little less killing than the others and more bookish, talking about his thoughts endlessly.

His name is Xu Gui, and he has always played the role of a military advisor before, often formulating action plans.

"That is the special location of Wangbei City, among the four countries, Nanguo is too far away from Qin, so it did not participate in the plan to kill Qin, but the other three countries are directly bordered by Qin, and among them, Chu State has the greatest strength to strangle the Qin people, and Wangbei City is the closest city to Qin, so the inspection intensity is naturally much heavier, and even compared with Chu King City, it is more than that, so it is difficult to gather strength. ”

In the face of questions, Xu Gui narrated his analysis.

When some irascible soldiers heard this, they scolded: "His grandmother's, this King of Chu is really not a thing!"

Xu Gui continued: "So we look at the north city less, it doesn't mean that there are fewer other places. Especially Donghao, they had a lot of contacts with our Qin State before, and the Donghao King also had a very good personal relationship with the former king back then, although I don't know why he participated in the Sihe Change, but it is rumored that he has been guilty all these years. did not agree to the Qin decree proposed by the Chu State at that time, and only took some property from the Qin State cities close to their territory, although those cities are now occupied by the Chu people, but at that time, many people fled to Donghao, and were also acquiesced by the Donghao King. ”

Li Xiaokuan felt a lot more comfortable when he heard this, it turned out that the Qin State was not an enemy on all sides, which was really unexpected.

"Does this mean that we can start from the East side and gather forces there?"

Xu Gui nodded.

"That's right, that's what I think, we can sneak into the cities close to the Donghao Kingdom, wipe out the Chu forces that are defending them, capture a few cities first, and then other compatriots will rush to join us when they hear the news. At that time, it will not be a problem to gather forces and hold one or two cities. ”

Li Xiaokuan nodded again and again, this is indeed a good way.

"However, what if the army of the Chu State gathers to suppress it, and we can't resist it?"

Questions were raised.

Xu Gui smiled faintly and said confidently.

"This is not a problem, if we succeed in taking the city, of course the Chu State will send troops to attack, but the strength will not be too great. ”

"How?"

"First of all, those cities are of little value to the Chu State, because the Chu State is small and has few people, so it will focus on commerce and travel between countries, and those big families are also business families. ”

"And those cities only border the Donghao Kingdom, and the Donghao King's dissatisfaction with the behavior of the Chu State is well known to the world, and they are completely self-sufficient in terms of their vast resources, so they have not interacted with the merchants of the Chu State much in these years. There is no business to do, and there is no reason for big families to take root in those cities, so there will only be some families that have little local influence in the Chu State. ”

"Secondly, the state of Chu is already small in numbers, and if you want to concentrate your forces to attack us with all your might, then you will inevitably need to draw troops from other cities. Once the forces of the cities adjacent to the East are empty, do you think that the East Congress will not eat the fat in their hands?"

"Now the four countries seem to be harmonious, but there are still disputes at the borders of the country, my Great Qin can be plotted by the other four countries when the national strength is strong, and if he Chu dares to act recklessly, why is it not possible to be eaten by the other three countries?"

The more Li Xiaokuan listened, the more excited he became, as if there was a broad road spreading out in front of him.

"Without further ado, let's do it now!"

"No way!"

Xu Gui stopped: "Your Majesty, you can't go. ”

"Why?"

Li Xiaokuan felt in his heart that he should take the lead.

"The only premise of our plans is that we have enough strength, and we didn't have the strength to resist before because the national fortune was not there, so now the first priority is to ensure the absolute safety of the king, otherwise with our current strength, I am afraid that we will not even be able to capture a city. ”

"So I think the king should stay in Wangbei City and hide your identity as much as possible, while we can divert the enemy's attention, and we can also fake a fake king after taking the city to confuse the public. ”

"This can not only play the role of rallying compatriots, but also draw the enemy's center of gravity to the east, killing two birds with one stone. ”

Li Xiaokuan nodded in agreement, indeed, even if he went to the front line, it didn't seem to be of much use, in case he accidentally lost his life, it would be worth the loss.

Xu Gui saw Li Xiaokuan's agreement, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that this king would insist on going, and he would not be able to stop him when the time came.

"Okay, then we will now divide into two groups, one group will go out to attack the city, and the other group will stay in the northern city to protect the king's safety. ”

"It doesn't have to be. Li Xiaokuan refused: "I can take care of myself, you don't have to scatter your forces for me." ”

"No, it is more important to keep the king safe than to go on a campaign. ”

"But you don't have enough manpower in the first place, won't you be even weaker when you disperse again?"

"Your Excellency, please rest assured, we will contact other generals along the way, and if we don't raise enough manpower, we will definitely not rush into attack. ”

"But ......"

"You don't have to fight......"

At this time, Qin Mu, who had been listening quietly beside him, spoke. Now the wounds in his eyes are completely healed, and there is not even a trace of scars, but they are still closed and have not opened their eyes.
