Chapter 872: Lü Buwei's Strategy (Second Update)

After Qin Wang Chu questioned this, Cai Ze's heart couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

What's more, it's clear that I'm not all the way with Wang Qian, why do I always have to take the blame for Wang Qian!

But since the king had already spoken, Cai Ze had no choice but to stand up, clear his throat and say, "The king, in fact, the minister thinks that things are not so bad. In fact, Wang Jian had already set up camp to pursue Li Mu, but the problem was that Li Mu's troops were cavalry, and the infantry of Wang Qian's troops could indeed not catch up with Li Mu's speed. ”

"And Li Mu's department has a thunderstorm, although as a cavalry, it often only takes one day to break the city, and when Wang Jian arrived, Li Mu had already looted the city and left. Under such circumstances, even if Wang Jian had the intention to kill the enemy, he would not be able to confront Li Mu. ”

After listening to this explanation, Qin Wang Chu's face finally looked a little better.

What Cai Ze said actually makes a lot of sense.

After all, Wang Jian is mainly infantry, and there are a large number of baggage accompanying the army, so the speed will definitely not be able to improve.

Li Mu is different, the four-legged troops come and go like the wind, and after having the horseshoe, the staying power of the cavalry has completely surpassed the infantry, and the infantry is far away on the way.

But it was at this time that Lu Buwei, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said without yin or yang: "Gang Chengjun, although it is true that Wang Jian can't catch up with Li Mu, but when he confronted Li Mu before, I didn't see Wang Jian take the initiative to attack." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Cai Ze's heart jumped violently, and he secretly screamed that it was going to be bad.

Sure enough, the next moment, Qin Wang Chu's face immediately became ugly again, and his eyes stared at Cai Ze viciously, obviously asking Cai Ze to give a reasonable explanation.

Cai Ze smiled bitterly and said, "King, no matter what, now that Li Mu is coming all the way to the west, it seems that he is obviously going to take Xianyang as his target, and when the time comes, he will order Wang Jian to have a big battle with him." The minister thought that with Wang Qian's ability, he would definitely be able to repel Li Mu. ”

Lu Buwei snorted and said, "This may not be a gentleman." You don't want to think about it, in the previous battle, Wang Jian did not have the upper hand in front of Li Mu, how can you be sure that Wang Jian will be able to defeat Li Mu this time? ”

Cai Ze was robbed by Lu Buwei three times and twice, and obviously couldn't stand it anymore, so he turned pale at the moment, and said in a deep voice to Lu Buwei: "Wu Chengjun, now that the front-line war is critical, you, as a prime minister, don't want to share the pressure for the front-line soldiers, but you have been slandering the front-line generals, why is this?" ”

Lu Buwei snorted heavily and said, "Why? If it weren't for Ru Gang Chengjun's demonic words to confuse the public, this battle would not have happened in the first place! As long as I am given another two years, the entire Great Qin will be able to become strong again, and even if the Shandong States are completely wiped out, it is not impossible for Great Qin to confront the Zhao State! But what about now? Now that Great Qin is pouring the power of the country, even a Li Mu can't beat it! This is the consequence of your hasty advance! ”

Lu Buwei's sudden attack made the hall suddenly quiet, and everyone's faces were full of astonishment, obviously not expecting that this Xiangbang, who had been silent for a long time, would choose to break out at this point in time.

Cai Ze's face turned pale, and he said angrily: "Lu Buwei! Your policy of appeasement will not end well! Although Great Qin is based on neutralizing Bashu, how can it only rely on these two places to confront the Zhao State, which has the wealth of the entire Central Plains? ”

Lu Buwei also said angrily: "In the past, when Great Qin was founded, it was only about the land in the middle and west, and it has not slowly become stronger until now? Now that Daqin has Bashu in it, are you still not satisfied? What about Zhao's possession of the Central Plains? As long as Great Qin is united, it will not be difficult to defeat Zhao State! ”

The two of you come and go, and suddenly there is a big quarrel.

However, it is obvious that because Cai Ze's side really can't take the record of the main battle faction, he was ridiculed back and forth by Lu Buwei tightly on this point, so it is obvious that Lu Buwei has the upper hand in this quarrel.

Qin Wang Chu was upset when he heard this, and finally couldn't help but say angrily: "Enough, shut up the widow!" ”

Lu Buwei and Cai Ze glared at each other before they each closed their mouths.

If the eyes can kill, then Lu Buwei and Cai Ze may have killed each other hundreds of times.

Qin Wang Chu looked at Lu Buwei and said in a deep voice: "Wu Chengjun, don't complain here, if you have any opinions, just say it directly, what the widow wants to hear is how to solve this problem, not listen to you and others quarreling here!" ”

Lü Buwei arched his hand towards Qin Wang Chu and said, "Great King, in fact, the minister thinks that it is time to negotiate peace with the people of Zhao. ”

"Peace?" As soon as Lü Buwei said this, there was a commotion in the hall.

Qin Wang Chu frowned, and said very dissatisfied: "Do you want to let the widow cut the land to that Zhao Dan child and ask for peace?" This is impossible! ”

You must know that at the beginning, Qin Wang Chu had already made up his mind, even if he couldn't completely defeat the people of Zhao in this battle, then at least he should cut some flesh from Zhao Guo's body.

Now to be honest, the Qin State has taken Xihe County back, and it can be regarded as a harvest.

If you ask the people of Zhao for peace at this time, won't you have to spit back the land that you have finally gotten in your hands?

Lü Buwei smiled and said: "The king misunderstood, the minister said that he was asking for peace, but he didn't want the king to cut the land. ”

As soon as he heard this, Qin Wang Chu's face finally improved a lot, and he said, "Since this is the case, then you will tell me your idea." ”

Lü Buwei said: "Great King, now Zhao State has been unable to attack Xinzheng for a long time, and Yang Zhai is also very nervous, I heard that King Zhao has transferred defenders from the direction of Gaotang City in the east to support Yang Zhai." In such a situation, the king only needs to send a lobbyist to persuade the king of Qi to send troops to attack Zhao, then Zhao's Handan will definitely be threatened. ”

In this way, the king will ask Zhao for peace at this time, and Zhao will definitely agree. In this way, Xihe County returned to the hands of Great Qin, and our army did not suffer major damage, such a result is completely acceptable. ”

Cai Ze interrupted Lu Buwei's words: "Wu Chengjun, you can't help but think about things too simply, right?" King Zhao was arrogant, how could he allow such a situation of land cutting to make peace with Great Qin? ”

Lu Buwei smiled slightly and said, "King Zhao only needs to use the land of one county to reduce 200,000 enemies, why doesn't he agree?" In exchange for the land of one county for the whole of Korea, I think it is entirely possible for King Zhao to accept it. ”

After saying this, Lu Buwei turned his head to Qin Wang Chu and said, "Great King, please let the ministers try it, even if this matter is not successful, there will be no loss to Great Qin." ”

Qin Wang Chu was silent for a long time, and finally made a decision: "Since this is the case, then Wu Chengjun will go to Handan for the widow." ”
