Chapter 562: Lü Buwei's Efforts (Second Update)

Lü Buwei is working on it.

worked hard to persuade the Qin State Minister Bang Yangquan Jun Qi Rong in front of him.

"Yangquanjun, in my opinion, it is better to let the Hedong front transfer back some soldiers and horses. Although the 80,000 army led by Wang Yi seems to be strong, there are less than 30,000 soldiers in Guanzhong, except for the soldiers in Guanzhong, the remaining 50,000 county soldiers are just chickens and dogs, and their strength is not as strong as it seems. If Li Mu is given a chance, then the outcome of this battle is unpredictable! ”

In fact, there was still a sentence in Lü Buwei's mouth that did not come out, that is, at present, the 80,000 army was already all the soldiers and horses that the Qin State could muster, and once the 80,000 army was defeated, then the entire Guanzhong would be completely free for Li Mu to come and go.

Lü Buwei had heard of Li Mu's methods.

The cavalry of the Zhao State wreaked havoc in the passes, killing everyone who dared to resist in every village they passed, then cutting off one of the adult men's hand, and then taking all the women, leaving only the old people and children and a bunch of cripples to rely on each other, and by the way, the entire village was burned down with a fire.

Although this method does not seem to be as tragic as the slaughter of the village, the consequences are almost the same.

Without a homeland, food has been snatched away, and the young and strong labor force has all been crippled, how can the remaining people survive?

Lu Buwei's heart couldn't help but want to complain about Li Mu fiercely.

If you want to grab something, you can grab it, and it's normal to kill those who resist, but why do you cut off other people's hands at every turn?

Isn't this offending the people of Guanzhong to death, and does Zhao still want to rule this land in the future?

What Lü Buwei didn't know was that in fact, there was no such thing as cutting off hands in the order issued by Li Mu, and there were also many young men in villages who had been robbed of supplies by Zhao Jun whose hands were intact.

Those Guanzhong men who had their arms cut off were just very unlucky to meet the Yiqu cavalry led by Yiqu Sheng.

With the grievances between Yiqu and the Qin people, although Yiqu Sheng made a promise not to slaughter the village under the pressure of Li Mu, he still secretly used the method of cutting off his hands to achieve the goal of slowly slaughtering the village.

Not to mention the complaint in Lu Buwei's heart, just say that this Yangquan Jun Michen sat in front of Lu Buwei, his face was also cloudy, and he sighed for a long time and said, "Lu Neishi, are you really willing to do this?" But you have also seen the attitude of the king, he is determined to send troops, and it is not easy for us to persuade the king to conquer the idea of conquest, can we still disobey the king in this kind of thing? ”

After all, Mi Chen did not agree to Lu Buwei's request.

When he left Yangquanjun's mansion and returned to his mansion, the expression on Lu Buwei's face was somewhat helpless.

Coincidentally, when Lu Buwei returned to the house, the henchman suddenly came quietly to inform him that someone had sent a strange box.

Lu Buwei gently stroked the strange box in front of him, which was obviously made of some kind of sandalwood, and it still exuded a faint fragrance in his hand.

Lü Buwei found a bracket on the side of the box, and with a light press, the box popped open.

There was nothing in it, just a small pile of sand, just enough to fill the entire box.

In the middle of the sand, a small red stone stands out.

Lu Buwei let out a sigh of relief, understanding who had sent this "gift".

Red is the color of the flag of Zhao State.

Zhao Dan's order Lü Buwei had already received it, but if he stood up openly, it would be too easy to attract attention, and it would also lead to the dissatisfaction of military generals and even Qin Wangzhu, so Lü Buwei would come to instigate Mi Chen.

It's a pity that Mi Chen was not fooled.

For this, Lu Buwei was also very anxious.

As the highest-ranking spy sent by the Zhao State to the Qin State, Lü Buwei knew very well what he was going to face.

Once his identity is revealed, then Lü Buwei's death is definitely the worst in the world, and it will also affect all the relatives in the Qin State.

But high risk also comes with high returns, and Lu Buwei also knows how rich the rewards will be if he really does what Zhao Dan expects.

At that time, the Lu family will definitely become a famous super clan in the world, and Lu Buwei himself will soar to become the prime minister of the whole world!

If Lü Buwei was a little skeptical about whether Zhao Guo could defeat Qin State at the beginning, then at this time, Lü Buwei had only one thought, that is, to see if he could make enough credit for Zhao Dan to fulfill his promise back then.

In his bones, Lü Buwei is actually still a businessman, an extremely good and outstanding genius trader, so that not many people in the whole world and even in the history of China in the next 5,000 years can compare with him.

Businessmen are of course concerned about profits, but in fact, they also pay attention to equality.

Equality does not mean equality of value, but equality of feelings for both parties.

When both buyers and sellers feel that this is a good business, everyone will have the motivation to continue working together.

But if one of them is dissatisfied, then the deal may continue because of this or that relationship, but sooner or later it will be over.

And Lü Buwei did a big deal this time - using a Qin State, which was once the overlord of the Warring States, in exchange for the position of Xiangbang of Zhao State.

He must do this beautifully, and then he can face all the skeptical eyes calmly when he becomes the prime minister.

At present, Hedong County of Zhao State is in danger, and Zhao State is facing a big crisis.

And this crisis of Zhao is the biggest opportunity for Lü Buwei to make meritorious contributions.

And it just so happens that Lü Buwei now has such an ability to solve this crisis.

So, why not do it?

Lu Buwei took a deep breath and finally made up his mind.

At present, this small box is the final order issued by Zhao Dan.

The red stone represents the Zhao Kingdom, and the sand with the stone certainly represents - killing.

Isn't sand and killing originally homophones?

Kill whom?

That night, in a remote corner of the palace gate, Lü Buwei, who was dressed in disguise, met the person he wanted to see.

A woman.

After warming up with the woman with a peugeot face and now being the chief female official of the palace city of Qin State for a while, and after making her panting with his upper and lower hands, Lu Buwei took out a small cloth bag containing some strange powder from his arms and put this small bag in the hands of the female official.

"Put it in the soup and give it to the king, and remember, don't let anyone know that you have touched the soup."

The delicate body in Lu Buwei's arms trembled suddenly, as if bearing great fear, and after a long time, the sobbing sound quietly sounded.

"Do you have to do that? That's the king! If the matter is revealed, you and I will die! Doctor, the concubine is a little scared! ”

Lu Buwei sighed softly, gently stroked the hair of the woman in his arms, and said softly: "This king will not be able to reward me under any circumstances, we can only find other ways for ourselves." The prince now regards me as a confidant, if I am Xiangbang after the prince ascends the throne, how can a mere Empress Dowager Huayang, who is not the prince's biological mother, be able to stop you from being with me? This is our best chance to stay together, don't miss it! ”

Looking at the shadow that slowly calmed down and walked away with firm steps, a sneer appeared on the corner of Lu Buwei's mouth.

Women, women, have always been so ignorant, for the sake of a little affection, even such a disgraceful thing as poisoning the monarch can be done.

Oh, woman.

Next, you should just need to wait quietly for the news of Qin Wangzhu's death, right?

"Bai Qi, Bai Qi, I want to see, when you know the news of Qin Wangzhu's death, what should you do?"

Lu Buwei laughed silently a few times, and then his whole body slowly retreated, quietly disappearing into the darkness.
