In August of the same year.

The battle against Qin has been broken out for four months, and the Shanyu Pass is still impregnable.

The Qin army's strength was nearly 100,000, and the coalition army, because it was a strong attacker, suffered even more heavy losses, and there were only more than 600,000 people left in the entire 900,000 army.

If the war continues like this, in the end, including the Qin State, a situation will be formed in which all countries are weak.

At this time, Xuanguo's immobility had caused dissatisfaction among the kings.

Lingguo, the palace study.

The Spirit King was throwing the battle report to the ground, and there was a nameless anger in his heart.

Cheng Ping below silently picked up the bamboo slip, quietly put it back on the table, and said in a calm voice: "Attacking the dangerous pass, it is not a few months, the king does not have to be angry." ”

King Ling glanced at him and said, "At present, the battle situation is stalemate, and Xuanguo is still holding his troops, his intention is obvious, that is, he wants to wait for the allies to break through the barrier, and then come to get a piece of the pie." What this king is most worried about is not these, but Wu Chu's determination may be shaken. ”

After listening to what he said, Cheng Ping muttered slightly: "The king's concern is not unreasonable, the war has been delayed for too long, the troops have been damaged too much, Wu Chu will inevitably suffer a setback in confidence when he sees that he can't attack for a long time, but this battle is very important, it has been fought for so long, and if it persists, the Qin State must be the first to fail!" ”

"This truth, the widow understands, but I'm afraid that the second king of Wu Chu doesn't understand!" The Spirit King was a little worried.

Cheng Ping said: "Then the king needs to do three things. ”

"First, talk to the two kings of Wu and Chu, consolidate the alliance, and know the benefits."

"Second, let me carefully carry out activities in the Qin State and divide the military-political relations of Qin, especially their Shuzhong county guards and high-ranking generals in the army."

"Third, send an envoy to Xuan, this time, not to urge, but to force King Xuan to send troops."

He said, the first and third points, King Ling directly agreed, but the second point, he frowned slightly and said: "It is not easy to divide the Qin State, the senior generals of the Qin army are all people who follow the King of Qin to conquer the south and the north, and expand the territory. ”

"Just like Su Yi, King Wu has sent envoys several times before, promising to take out the position of general with heavy benefits, but Su Yi has never hesitated."

He is right, among the generals of the Qin army, it can be said that they are all veterans under Xiao Yuan, and they are fighting step by step, these people, Xiao Yuan just gave an order to let them cut off their heads, I am afraid they will not hesitate.

No, Cheng Ping smiled slightly, and said: "Then don't pay attention to Su Yi and the others, don't forget, the current commander of the new army of the Qin army, but Sun Qi." ”

"Oh?" The Spirit King's spirit was shocked.

Cheng Ping continued: "Sun Qi, this person, once served as Huan Shuai, and then entered Qin, and he did not make any achievements in the Qin State, to put it bluntly, he is a guest qing, and no one knows how much loyalty he can have to the King of Qin. ”

"En......" The Spirit King rolled his eyes and nodded slowly: "Makes sense......"

Seeing this, Cheng Ping said again: "In addition, it is about to enter the autumn harvest, the land of Sichuan and Shu, fertile fields for thousands of miles, the top priority for the supply of grain and grass for the Qin army, if there is chaos in Shu, the Qin army on the front line will be defeated without a fight!" ”

His plan is not insignificant, while striking at the inside of the Qin army, he must also engage in rear supply, if it is really successful, then the coalition forces will undoubtedly win this war.

After hearing this, the Spirit King swept away his previous worries, immediately adopted his suggestion, and immediately implemented it.

When the two armies are at war, careful work is indispensable, and it is also a thing that cannot be avoided at all.

After receiving the secret letter from above, the hidden Qin State did not dare to delay, and immediately began to make a plan, and under the instructions of the Spirit King, they also set the first target on Li Minggui, the commander of Yong'an County.

More than ten days later, Yong'an.

Through a special relationship, the merchant Wei Tu pulled a business reason in the county and invited Li Minggui to a banquet.

His identity in Yong'an is not a Lingguo businessman, but a local businessman, who has been working hard for several years, and even has a certain number of contacts and relationships in Yong'an, which is very well hidden.

If it weren't for the stakes, the Spirit King wouldn't use his chess piece lightly.

As for Li Minggui, as the county guard, he needs to make political achievements, revitalize business in the county, and deal with these rich businessmen not once or twice, so he didn't think much about it, so he gladly accepted the invitation.

The most luxurious restaurant in Yong'an.

At this time, this place has been chartered, and when he learned that Li Minggui was coming, Wei Tu hurriedly greeted him, nodded his head, and invited him into the private room.

After sitting down, the dishes were almost ready, Wei Tu hurriedly picked up the wine jug, got up and poured a glass of wine for Li Minggui, and said flatteringly: "Lord Li can come today, because he has enough to be below, and he has a little wine, which is not a tribute." ”

"Where, Brother Wei is too polite, our Yongan business, we need you to bring more good heads in the future." Li Minggui said.

Regarding these scenes, Wei Tu Na hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare, the villain can stretch in Yong'an, open some shops, and do some small business, and it's all in Master Li's food." ”

"Haha! Brother Wei is serious. Li Minggui smiled heartily, and naturally liked to listen to such words.

After a pause, he naturally began to ask: "Today's invitation, I don't know what Brother Wei wants, as long as it is related to business revitalization, without violating the laws of the Qin State, what this official can support, will definitely support it." ”

"Yes, yes, Master Li takes care of the villain so much, it is the honor of the villain." Wei Tu continued to pat his ass, and said: "Actually, it's not a big deal, come, Lord Li, the villain will toast you first, and talk while drinking." ”

He was a little mysterious, but Li Minggui didn't care too much, so he raised his wine glass: "Brother Wei, please." ”

"Ah, Lord Li, please." Wei Tu held the wine glass in both hands, looking respectful.

Next, the two began to pull and pull, on the wine table, back and forth, the wine has passed three rounds, and the dish has passed five flavors.

Seeing that the time was almost ripe, Wei Tu also leaned over a little and said in a low voice: "Don't hide it from Lord Li, the villain was actually entrusted by the Spirit King to pass on some words to Lord Li." ”

"What!?" Hearing this, Li Minggui instantly sobered up halfway from alcohol.

Everyone knows that the nations are attacking Qin, and the Spirit King is the leader of the alliance.

At this time, he dared to let people secretly meet with the local county guards of the Qin State!

The other party is too bold!

Li Minggui was shocked, and his eyes had already widened.

After Wei Tu finished speaking, he stared at him without blinking, observing his words.

It wasn't until a long time later that Li Minggui took a deep breath and tried to calm down and said, "Ling, what did the Spirit King say?" ”

Wei Tu was still staring at him, and said faintly: "The tyranny of the King of Qin has poisoned the world, causing the countries to attack Qin, and now, Qin is on the verge of defeat, and the danger of losing the country is irreversible. Lord Li is a reasonable person, he knows the general trend, and the king of Qin has been in Shuzhong, suppressing the powerful by force, causing bloody killings, if Lord Li can unite the talents in Shu in the matter of destroying Qin, at that time, maybe it will be the king of Shu......"
