Seeing that Fan Ju was so honest, Bai Qi was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing.

Seeing this, Fan Ju also laughed.

The two of them unanimously picked up the wine bottle on the table and touched it lightly.

Bai Qi put down the wine bottle in his hand and said to Fan Ju: "Xiangguo, you are very strategic, Bai Qi admires it very much." ”

Fan Ju shook his head and said to the dialogue: "Wu Anjun, this world is invincible, and there are no invincible attackers, who else can you!" You, Wu Anjun, the old man also admires him very much in his heart. ”

"Wu Anjun, the old man often thinks about it, if you and I are both selfless, we are all for the sake of the Qin State. I'm afraid that this Handan City has already been broken by our Qin State, and the Zhao State has long been destroyed! ”

Bai Qi poured wine for the two of them, and said to Fan Ju: "Xiangguo, it's not just Zhao Guo!" If it weren't for your slander against my king back then, not only Zhao Guo, but also Han and Wei, I would have taken it all together. ”

Fan Ju also sighed:

"Wu Anjun, I don't know if you believe it or not? After the Battle of Changping, I dissuaded the king and asked you to lead the army back to the country, on the one hand, I had my selfishness; On the other hand, it is indeed considering that after the Battle of Changping, our Qin State lost more than half of its vitality. ”

"The old man asked the king to let you withdraw to Hangu Pass, but I was really worried that my Qin State was like the Qi State attacking the Song Dynasty back then, and it was too exhaustive of national strength, in case it provoked other countries to take advantage of the situation and attack our Qin State together."

"On the contrary, my Qin State may turn from victory to defeat, and the gains outweigh the losses. If we can stabilize the Zhao State, and when the vitality of our Qin State recovers, with you Wu Anjun here, I will definitely be able to go down in one fell swoop. Of course, now that the old man says this to you, you won't believe it. ”

Bai Qi also shook his head and said to Fan Ju: "Xiangguo, Bai Qi believes in you." ”

Fan Ju looked at Bai Qi and found that Bai Qi looked sincere.

Fan Ju raised the wine bottle in front of him and said to the white: "Wu Anjun, thank you." ”

Anyway, drink it all.

Bai Qi asked again: "Wu Anjun, Zhao State is treacherous, when our army attacks Zhao State again, if you lead the army to go on the expedition, the old man thinks that now Handan has long been owned by my Qin State." ”

"But what makes the old man strange is, why have you repeatedly rejected my king and are not willing to go on the expedition? Don't you know that if you do this, you will be killed? ”

Bai Qi also picked up the wine bottle in front of him and took one sip.

said to Fan Ju: "Xiangguo, I will tell you the truth in vain, I have been fighting for the Qin State for decades, I am really tired." I'm tired of fighting, I'm tired of killing, I really don't want to go to war anymore! I don't know if Xiang Guo believes it or not? ”

Fan Ju hugged his fist at Bai and said, "Wu Anjun, I, Fan Ju, believe in you." ”

Seeing this, Bai Qi not only laughed at himself: "Thank you Xiangguo for believing that Bai Qi." Also, Bai Qi is not a fool. In the army of my Qin State, most of those who can recruit good fighters are from Bai Qi's account, and they only obey Bai Qi's orders. ”

"Take you as an example, as a prime minister, you are so jealous of Bai Qi. Is not my king afraid of white rising? Needless to say, I also know that as a wise king, I will definitely be jealous! ”

"After thinking about it, the only way to do this is to completely give up the military power and never lead the troops again. I want to be lucky and avoid future disasters! Don't forget, the king is almost seventy years old! ”

Fan Ju naturally understood the meaning of these words, that is, Qin Wang Yingji was almost seventy years old, and he didn't have a few years to live.

At that time, for the sake of the Ying clan and his descendants, King Yingji of Qin will definitely not allow a person with such a high prestige in the army like Bai Qi to exist before he leaves!

Fan Ju was silent, and he also knew and understood in his heart that Qin Wang Yingji thought so and was ready to do so.

The two sat down and fell silent.

After a while, Fan Ju asked Bai Qi softly:

"Wu Anjun, in your opinion, does my Qin State still have a chance to unify the world in the future?"

Bai Qi shook his head and said, "Xiangguo, you must have the answer in your heart. If you don't have talent, let's talk about my thoughts! This time in the battle of Handan, our Qin State, lost 350,000 elite troops. ”

"This is the unprecedented defeat of my Qin State, in my opinion, after this war, my Qin State is not only a big injury, but also a broken muscle, not a short-term recovery."

"Actually, this is not the most important thing, my Qin State is certainly very damaged. However, the four kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, Han, and Chu fought for many years, and their vitality was also greatly damaged, and the Qi State did not have to worry. ”

"Our Qin State has a vast territory and a large population, and in the same time, our Qin State will be able to take the lead in restoring its national strength, and it can still conquer all countries and unify the world."

Speaking of this, Bai Qi stood up and came to the map of the Central Plains countries on the side of the study, and pointed to the Yan National Road in the north:

"Xiangguo, the problem lies in the Yan Kingdom in the north! Before I got up in vain, I never thought that the Yan Kingdom would rise again! But now he has to face this reality, especially the future crown prince of Yan State, Liaocheng Jun Ji Kang. ”

"This Yan Guogong Kang is really a demon. Since arriving in Liaodi, with a young body, recruiting talents, and developing silently, its practice in Liaodi is like the first kings of Qin in my past dynasties, developing Buddha in the border of the western region. ”

Fan Ju listened to Bai Qi's words, and touched the beard under his chin with his hand, making a contemplative appearance.

Bai Qi continued: "Liaodi is a remote place, if this Gongzi Kang only develops in Liaodi, my Qin State will not have to worry about it. But what this prince Kang did in Liaodi finally made the Yan royal family make up their minds to make him the crown prince. ”

"Once the entire Yan Kingdom is mastered by Gongzi Kang, it will be terrifying. Yan has an excellent geographical location, entrenched in the north, east of Liaodi, looking at the Central Plains, and can send troops into the Central Plains at any time. In this battle of Handan, the Yan army went south to prove this. ”

"In the battle of Handan, this Gongzi Kang sent the general Rong Yan to lead the army south, rushed thousands of miles, occupied Shangdang, and cut off the westward retreat of my Handan army, which can be described as a stroke of genius."

"The two generals, Meng Fu and Sima Terrier, I still know their ability to lead the army, and they are by no means weaker than the famous generals in the world. That's it, the two generals and the 150,000 army of our Qin State actually fell into the hands of their Yan army, which shows the elite of the Yan army. ”

"Through this battle, it has been proved that the Yan Kingdom has also risen. Bai Qi dared to conclude that the future crown prince of the Yan Kingdom, Gongzi Kang, was definitely the same as his Taizu Yan Zhao, who was eloquent and knowledgeable. ”

"This person will be the great enemy of my Qin State in the future, no, he will be the great enemy of my Qin State now. The most important thing is that this Liaocheng Jun has become a force in Yan State, and my Qin State cannot be bound to him through other people in Yan State. ”

"With his own methods, it is absolutely impossible for him to give me any chance to restore the strength of the Qin State. Some time ago, Bai Qi heard that Yan Wang Ji Ming had recruited him back to Jidu, and now he is afraid that he has been appointed as the prince. ”

Fan Ju also stood up, walked to Wu Anjun's side and set his eyes on Yan Guo on the map.

After watching the meeting, Fan Sui asked Bai Qidao: "Wu Anjun, in your opinion, who is the first country in the Yan Kingdom to go south?" Is it Zhao Guo? ”

Bai Qi pointed to the Qi Kingdom on the map and said:

"As Bai Qi expected, his Yan Kingdom went south to the Central Plains, which must be easy first and then difficult. He Yan State does not want to border with our Qin State immediately, and he will not attack Zhao State first. Qin and Zhao feud, Zhao is currently the southern barrier blocking my Qin State for Yan State. ”

"What's more, after the Battle of Changping and the Battle of Handan, Zhao's national strength has been weakened to the extreme, and there is no more than ten years to recover. For the Yan Kingdom, it can be attacked at any time. ”

"If Bai Qi's expectations are not bad, after this Liaocheng Jun has stabilized his position in the Yan State, my Qin State will soon see that he will inevitably lead his army south to attack the Qi State."

"Yan Qi is a feud, plus the Qi country is close to my Qin country, and the Yan country attacks the Qi country, and the countries next to it will inevitably stand by and watch, and the joy will be successful. Judging by his practices in Liaodi, he will not delay the war with Qi like Le Yi. ”

"In this way, the Qi Kingdom will fall into the hands of the Yan Kingdom in a short time. Xiangguo, you can think about it, the Yan State occupied the Qi State, and seeing that the countries were weak, would he stop the expedition? ”

Bai Qi's words made Fan Ju sweat through his clothes.

And if Ji Kang was present, he would definitely say to Bai Qi: "Those who know me, Wu Anjun also!" ”

After saying the above words, Bai Qi looked at Fan Ju and said with a slight smile:

"Xiangguo, this is my view of the world in vain."

Fan Ju looked at Bai Qi and asked hopefully, "Wu Anjun, are you really not thinking about leading the army to the battle?" ”

Bai Qi took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

After a while, he opened his eyes and said to Fan Ju:

"Xiangguo, don't admonish Bai Qi anymore, Bai Qi already knows your intentions, you can read it...... I have read my king's edict. Bai Qi will obey orders. ”

Seeing that Bai Qi had understood his intention, Fan Sui slowly took out the edict of King Qin from his arms, did not read it, and slowly put it on the table in front of him.

said to the dialogue: "Wu Anjun, the king just asked you to go to the secret, you don't have to think about it." ”

Bai Qi laughed again, and said to Fan Ju with self-deprecation: "What's next? ”

Qin Xiang Fan Ju was silent.

Bai Qi continued, and said to Fan Ju:

"Xiangguo, Bai Qi will leave Xianyang immediately. Thou art wise, henceforth ...... Let's do it for ourselves from now on! That's all for Bai Qi. ”

Fan Ju faced Bai Qi, clasped his hands together, and slowly bowed down to the ground:

"Wu Anjun, thank you for your advice, Fan Ju...... Fan Ju won't send it. ”

Bai Qi's face was sad, his body bowed slightly, and he accepted this great gift from Qin Xiang Fan Ju.

Fan Ju stood up, took one last look at Bai Qi, and turned away.
