Chapter 895: The Dispute of the Qin State (First Update)
Lu Buwei hurriedly walked towards the Xianyang Palace in front of him, but he was thinking about some things in his heart.
The state of Zhao has already started a war against the state of Qi......
When he received this news, Lu Buwei actually didn't have any surprises in his heart at all.
Everyone knew that Zhao's expansion was inevitable, and that such expansion would only stop in two situations, the first was when the king sitting on the throne of Zhao suddenly did not want to expand, and the second was when Zhao suffered a crushing defeat in a foreign war.
Obviously, neither of these situations is currently happening, so the expansion of the Zhao State and the ensuing war are inevitable.
To be honest, sometimes Lü Buwei really hoped that Zhao would choose Qin as the next target, so that Lü Buwei would be able to get rid of it quickly.
Nine years, nine years have passed.
In the past nine years, Lü Buwei, as the highest-level spy personally developed by Zhao Dan in Xianyang, has lived in precarious tension every day.
This kind of stressful life made Lu Buwei can't help but let out a long breath every day when he sees himself in the bronze mirror after getting up, thanking God for his favor again.
"It's going to be over." Lu Buwei told himself silently.
Judging by the current situation, the end of such a life is not far off.
But until then, Lü Buwei had to play his part and wait for that day to come.
Lü Buwei stepped into the main hall and saluted to King Chu of Qin, who had already taken his seat at the top: "The minister has seen the king."
Qin Wang Chu's face didn't look very good, he responded very calmly, and then said, "Wu Chengjun, sit down."
The ministers arrived one after another, and soon all the ones who were supposed to come had already arrived.
Of course, Lu Buwei's eyes were still on Cai Ze, who was sitting opposite him.
Cai Ze also noticed Lu Buwei's gaze, then snorted vigorously, and turned his head away from looking at Lu Buwei.
A faint smile appeared on Lu Buwei's face.
Since the main battle faction led by Cai Ze in the last war was unfavorable, but Lü Buwei succeeded in negotiating peace, the momentum on Lü Buwei's side suddenly soared, and Qin Wang Chu's trust in Lü Buwei became more and more obvious.
Of course, Lü Buwei would not let go of such an opportunity, so during this time, Lü Buwei has been suppressing Cai Ze's subordinates with all his might.
Because Qin Wang Chu was annoyed by Cai Ze's unfavorable strategy and supported Lü Buwei intentionally or unintentionally, Lü Buwei's actions went extremely smoothly.
After more than half a year, several cadres under Cai Ze's command have been taken down by Lu Buwei, and some have even been sent to prison and then beheaded.
These things immediately made Cai Ze's faction panic, after all, everyone came to be officials to pursue power and fame, not to die.
As a result, more people began to leave Cai Ze's command, and these people either surrendered to Lu Buwei, or even went directly to the crown, which can be regarded as chic.
In general, Lu Buwei felt that Cai Ze was almost a bare-bones commander now, and he only needed to add more force to be able to completely take down Cai Ze.
Cai Ze obviously knew about such a situation, and this was the situation when the two met their eyes just now.
At this time, Qin Wang Chu, who was sitting at the top, coughed and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I summoned you and others to come here today for the sake of Zhao Guo's attack on Chu. The messenger of the King of Qi asking for help has come to Xianyang, and now the widow wants to hear the opinions of your family. ”
As soon as Qin Wang Chu said this, the faces of the ministers of Qin in the main hall were different, and they obviously all had different ideas.
Lu Buwei looked left and right, then stood up directly, and said to Qin Wang Chu: "Great King, the minister thinks that now that the Zhao army is strong, if he easily sends troops to fight against the Zhao State, not only will it not be effective, but it will even be affected. It's better to wait and see the situation before making a decision. ”
Stance matters.
All along, Lü Buwei's position has been very clear, that is, to recuperate, waiting for the moment of the final decisive battle with Zhao State.
Although such a position has caused Lü Buwei to encounter many criticisms led by Cai Ze, it has not brought Lü Buwei down, but has made Lü Buwei more stable.
In that case, there is no need to change now.
Although he had been prepared for a long time, after hearing Lu Buwei's words, Cai Ze was still a little unable to sit still.
This Gang Chengjun couldn't help but speak: "Wu Chengjun, there is still a martial character in the title of Vain, is this the performance of martial arts?" Now that the State of Qi is in danger, if the State of Qi also perishes, then the next one will either be the State of Chu or the Great Qin! As the saying goes, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, now that the Qi country has been robbed, how can Daqin not save it?"
Lü Buwei glanced at Cai Ze, and said with an expression of "I already knew that your old boy was going to come out to make trouble": "Gang Chengjun, you have advocated participating in the war and rescue again and again, but let me ask you, in the past few years, did you save Yan State, or Wei State and South Korea?"
Cai Ze's face changed, and he was obviously told by Lu Buwei that he was in a sore spot.
Lu Buwei continued to sneer: "The result is that they are not saved!" Not only that, but it was precisely because of your reckless suggestion that Great Qin had lost troops in the wars of the past few years! If I had followed my method of recuperation and recuperation a long time ago, the current Great Qin would already have an army that was strong enough in combat!
This time the Qi country is in trouble, if it can be stopped, it is its luck, if it can't be stopped, it should also be destroyed. What Great Qin did should not be to rescue the Qi Kingdom thousands of miles away, but to seize the opportunity to recuperate and consolidate and restore Great Qin's strength!"
Cai Ze snorted and said, "If you say so, then after the destruction of the Six Kingdoms of Shandong, will Great Qin still be able to fight against the Zhao State alone?"
Lu Buwei snorted and said, "Since you haven't tried it, how do you know that it won't work?" Don't underestimate the enthusiasm of the old Qin people to protect their homes and defend the country! As for the six countries of Shandong, after so many years, don't you know that these countries are just some waste? If they really can't resist the Zhao Kingdom, then let them perish!"
The two of you come and go, arguing endlessly.
That's enough! Qin Wang Chu finally couldn't hold it back, and rudely interrupted the words of the two: "The widow is to let you wait to come up with ideas, not to let you wait here to scold the street like a shrew!"
Lü Buwei and Cai Ze hurriedly confessed.
But there must always be a result, so Lu Buwei said: "What is the matter with, please ask the king to judge."
