Chapter 46: The Strange Trick
"Jing Jian is bold!" Du Zhi's face turned red, and he snatched the topic and said loudly: "What Doctor Shang said is extremely true. The name is right, the six states are in alliance, and Zhou Tianzi and the Qin State and the princes of the world are bullied together. Only in the name of the Son of Heaven can I call on the princes of the world to form a multinational alliance! With a lot of help, how can it be said that it is not clear? β
"Doctor Du," Ying Qian said coldly: "The king has words, the team is conspiring, and there are no scruples about words, why are you in a hurry?" Du Zhi was speechless, "Okay, let's, let him speak." β
Gongsun Jia made an exception and interjected, "If it works, it is feasible, but it is really useless." The king is clear. β
Jing Jian was honest, "I don't agree with Doctor Shang's proposition." But we haven't thought of a countermeasure yet. Du Zhi smiled coldly, glared at Jing Jian fiercely, opened his mouth and stopped.
Zuo Shu Chang Yingqian kept tapping lightly on the bookcase and frowned in contemplation, then raised his head and said: "The doctor's policy, the Son of Heaven issued an edict, which is feasible but useless." Coalition forces are a little bit of a counterweight, useful but difficult to do. Not to mention that the hastily cobbled together Allied forces have no combat power at all, and it is extremely difficult to achieve this by merely building a multinational coalition force. In addition to the six countries, there are still 32 small and medium-sized vassal states in the world, and the total number of military horses is about 300,000, which is indeed a large number. But they were divided by the six countries in various fragments, and the soldiers and horses could not gather beyond the big powers. Even if you cross it, you will not be able to enter the Hangu Pass. Also, the six major warring states were already eyeing the small and medium-sized princes, how could these small countries dare to provoke the big countries to send their own tigers? It is really possible to capture our envoy and go to the great country to ask for merit. Doctor, Ying Qian thinks that he has to find a good plan again. β
"Although Brother Yingqian is said to be a military general, he is much better than that Ganlong Du Zhi when he picks up strategy." Qin Feng thought silently in his heart.
Gan Long was a little embarrassed, but he still smiled, "Yes." If you have a good strategy, you should be taught. β
Liyang Ling Zi'an sneered: "These little princes, hmph, it is possible for them to follow behind the army of the Six Kingdoms to divide the Qin piece of meat." If you want to unite with the Qin State, hey, hey, they can't hide. β
"And what clever ideas do you have? Take it out. Du Zhi's face was red, as if his claim had been refuted.
"If you want me to say, just fight to the death with the Six Nations!"
Zi'an Huo Ran stood up, pulled out the short sword in his hand, plunged into the brick above the ground, gritted his teeth and scolded: "Bird! What are you afraid of? The blood of the old Qin people was shed on the battlefield. Back then, wasn't the old Qin clan hard enough to kill a piece of territory in the encirclement of Rong Di? There's no way out, there's no way, it's not a fight? Isn't it a battle to the end? Please give an order, make 200,000 filial piety clothes, and fight the six countries in blood! Zi'an asked for his life to be a pioneer general, not to behead 100,000 heads, and swear not to survive! β
The descendants of this famous minister were impassioned and burst into tears, obviously extremely impatient with this kind of chatter in the temple court, and even forgot that this was a political hall. However, his passionate scolding and generous invitation to war were indeed the true colors of the old Qin people, which frightened Du Zhi and Gongsun Jia, who had never fought a bloody battle, dumbfounded.
Zuo Shu Changying changed color reverently, "Zi'an, take the sword back." This is a political hall, not a battlefield. "Ying Qian is the commander of the Qin army, and he is also the fierce general of the three armies, and only he can deter the unique impulse of the old Qin people.
Zi'an silently pulled out the short sword inserted in the ground, sat back in front of the desk with a calm face and sighed and wiped away tears.
Qin Feng was also heavy when he heard it.
Qin Xiaogong's face was as usual, and he didn't seem to see Zi'an's fierce generosity, and he didn't mean to blame at all. He just felt at the moment that with Yingqian, the cousin, he saved half of his strength.
With Ying Qian in the way, he has full room to think about everyone's proposition.
Of course, there is no need to think about Zigishi's assertions.
It was a tragic road of martyrdom, and when there was no way to retreat, there was only a sword drawn and a bloody battlefield to coexist and die with the country.
As long as you are mentally prepared, you don't need to think about it.
In times of crisis, the courage and fierceness of the main battle soldiers are always the most valuable. As the king of a country, he can not accept his words, but he cannot break his heart in any way.
He got up from his seat, walked in front of Zi'an, handed him a white cloth sweat towel, and sighed, "Zi'an, if the Qin State has no way out, I will fight to the end like you." The ministers here will also draw their swords. β
"Wow-" sounded, Zi'an actually cried loudly.
For a while, everyone in the hall wiped their tears and sighed.
Qin Xiaogong stood in the hall and asked slowly and heavily: "Everyone, is the Qin State really nowhere to go?" He looked at Jing Jian and Qin Feng, who didn't speak. As long as there is a person who does not speak, Qin Xiaogong will not speak his own thoughts, he wants to base his decision on the basis of his subordinates' propositions to the greatest extent, if his subordinates have fully elaborated, he himself would rather not say it and adopt it all.
When a new monarch ascends to the throne, the best way to get the ministers to work together is to make them feel that they are promoting their own ideas.
Unless a decision must be made at an emergency like last night, Qin Xiaogong would rather let his ministers come down to make a decision. This is not only the result of his thinking, but also the result of his character.
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency," Jing Jian and Qin Feng stood up almost at the same time and said, "I have a plan, I am afraid that it will be unelegant, and I don't know whether to talk about it or not." β
Qin Xiaogong laughed heartily and said: "Life and death, do everything. As long as it is useful, it is elegant. Say, I'll hear about this indecent strategy. β
Du Zhi couldn't hold back a smile, and hurriedly covered his mouth and lowered his head.
Jing Jian was downright and generous, and said loudly: "Jing Jian is scheming, and there is only one plan available at the moment: secretly lobbying the Six Kingdoms, buying off powerful ministers with a lot of money, dividing the Six Kingdoms, delaying the time, and causing the Six Nations to divide the Qin Alliance to collapse by itself." Among the six countries, Qi and Qin do not have a border, and they will not take the initiative to be the leader. The Korean state of Yan is the weakest, and it will not attack Qin alone. Wei, Chu and Zhao were the most powerful and most likely to attack Qin alone. And the three kingdoms of Wei, Chu and Zhao all have powerful ministers who love money. Especially in the Wei Kingdom, because the King of Wei loved jewelry and jade, the ministers were greedy. If we bribe us with a lot of money and beauties, and promise other benefits, these powerful ministers will not disappoint us. If these three countries do not move, the division of the six kingdoms will naturally delay, and if it is delayed, the alliance will collapse itself. β
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's really an indecent strategy." Qin Xiaogong couldn't help but smile.
The ministers in the hall laughed together. Du Zhi laughed so much that he couldn't wipe away his tears and snot, and coughed again and again. Gan Long frowned and shook his head, "Beautiful women have a lot of money? What kind of system? Doesn't it make the world laugh? β
Gongsun Jia just laughed, but didn't speak. Liyang Ling Zi'an pouted, "Jing Jian which Jing Jian can you think of!" Zuo Shu Chang Yingqian smiled slightly, but he was silently contemplative.
Only Qin Feng didn't have a hint of a smile, and looked at the monarch and ministers with a straight face.
Yingqian Huoran stood up, "Jing Jian's strategy, ugly is ugly, it is of great use." Having said that, Fang is going down today, isn't that country ruthless and vicious? Zhao Chenghou Zhengzheng is a man, and in order to win the Wei State, he gave his beautiful concubine to the King of Wei. Didn't the state of Chu bribe Tian Ji, the general of the state of Qi, with 3,000 gold, to make Qi Chu quit his army? Pang Juan's kid is known as a celebrity, and in order to be the prime minister, he also bribed the fox concubine of King Wei. What are the taboos when the survival of the country is at stake? In the final analysis, the old Qin people only knew that the soldiers would come to block the water and come to the earth, and they couldn't think of a trick. At present, the six countries are forcing us to use shady tricks, and we will use them, where are we afraid of him? β
Gongsun Jia groaned: "Dare to ask the doctor, how much gold does the treasury have?" How many beauties are there in Qin? β
Gan Long sneered, "The old man only knows that the gold is less than five thousand. How many beauties are there? Hmph, about only Changshi knows. β
Gongsun Jia didn't seem to notice Gan Long's ridicule, and said to himself: "Five thousand gold? If the three kingdoms of Wei, Chu and Zhao each had two powerful ministers, that would be six. Excluding the secret activities of the envoys and the gold for collecting beautiful women, each powerful minister can only get 300 gold. The rewards that the ministers of the three kingdoms of Wei, Chu and Zhao received from the king were often hundreds of gold, and their appetites were extremely greedy, and they might not even look at three hundred gold. If there is no 10,000 gold, this plan is difficult to do. General Jingjian, what do you think? β
As a low-level general who fought fiercely on the battlefield, Jing Jian really didn't know that the government was so poor. What Gongsun Jia said is indeed the truth. And Qin Feng didn't have long after he came to this Warring States world, although he also knew that the Qin government was poor, but he didn't think that he would be so poor that he was not even as rich as a powerful minister in the Six Kingdoms.
For a while, Jing Jian and Qin Feng were stunned in the hall, and they were speechless.
Du Zhi looked quite serious, "I can give the three hundred gold rewarded by the ancestor to General Jingjian, but it is a drop in the bucket, and it is difficult to continue." β
Gan Long sneered, "The old man can also take out eight hundred gold, is it enough?" β
Suddenly, Qin Xiaogong, who had been pacing and pondering, had bright eyes, as if he had realized something because of this, and stood there for a long time, as if he was thinking about something.
For a moment, he actually glanced at the hall with blazing eyes, "Ladies and gentlemen, the sword of the Six Kingdoms has stabbed me in the throat, and the country's demise is in danger, and we and other monarchs and ministers cannot be restrained." In the Spring and Autumn Period, Xianggong of the Song Dynasty adhered to benevolence and righteousness, did not attack the soldiers of Bandu, defeated the army and humiliated the country, and ridiculed the world. However, what Song Xianggong lost was only a small overlord after all. Today, if not, once they tie their hands and feet, the old Qin people will be wiped out. If the Six Kingdoms want to destroy Qin and divide Qin, the most vicious thing is to attack from front to back. The eastern army pressed the border, and at the same time instigated the rebellion of the Western Rongdi. At that time, the old Qin people were afraid that they would not even have a way back to the Longxi River Valley. They want to cut down the old Qin tribe to the roots, and we will not even accept surrender. This is the destruction of the country and the extinction of the species, please weigh it. Suddenly, he turned his back, his shoulders trembling slightly.
For a while, the seat was moved, and a chilling coldness suddenly penetrated everyone's backbone.
Gongsun Jia said in a loud voice: "The choice of the king is that the ministers will go to the soup and die!" β
He was a person who rarely expressed his position clearly, but at this moment, his face was flushed and panting. "Go to the soup and die, don't turn your heels" is the Mo family oath that has been spread all over the world, it is said that the disciples of the Mo family follow Mozi, every time they are in danger, everyone rushes to danger first, and they will not turn their heels and run away when they die.
Today, Gongsun Jia uses this oath here, which is extremely inspiring. Everyone couldn't help but be generous in unison, "Go to the soup and go to the fire, and die without spinning!" β
Qin Xiaogong had already turned around, and his voice was slightly hoarse, "The blood of Yingquliang will flow with the old Qin people." β
"Your Majestyβ" Several ministers, along with Jing Jian Qin Feng, prostrate on the ground together, choking up.
Qin Xiaogong let out a long sigh of relief, and his tone turned calm, "Everyone, please get up, the old Qin people are not easy to bully, I still have to take an opinion, otherwise, I will have no shame to face the countrymen." β
"But it's up to you to choose!" The ministers spoke in unison.
