Chapter 39: The Chessboard
"Okay, what I'm waiting for is Mr.'s words, with Mr.'s help, I can reach millions of soldiers in the Qin State!" Zhao Kuo excitedly patted the desk in front of him, so that the plan could go smoothly.
You must know that throughout the Warring States Period, the Zongheng family was a favorite character in all countries. With only their own three-inch tongue, they can enter and exit the phase.
And the Mao Sui in front of him is the existence of the full-level mouth cannon among the people of Zhao State. Although there are only a few strokes in the "Historical Records" and "Warring States Policy" in later generations, there are only a handful of people who can persuade the king of a country to promote the merger. With Mao Sui's help, why can't he cholera Qin.
Thinking of this, he stood up, walked to the edge of the hanging map, and pointed his finger firmly at the center of the Qin State: "Sir, I need you to go here to help me!" ”
"Xianyang? Does the general want me to lobby King Qin Zhaoxiang? With all due respect, the general's plan is wonderful, but I don't think it's going to be a reality. Mao Sui glanced at the map and immediately recognized the place Zhao Kuo was pointing to.
Zhao Kuo did not refute Mao Sui, but looked at him with interest: "I would like to hear it in detail." ”
"The reason why the general asked me to go to Xianyang in Qin is nothing more than to let me lobby the King of Qin. With all due respect, it is simply impossible to get King Qin to make a move to change generals. He is not the king of Handan, his purpose is to defeat our army stationed in Changping, how can he make such a superficial move to change the generals! Mao Sui said everything he thought in one breath and quietly waited for Zhao Kuo's reaction.
Zhao Kuo didn't react at all to his ridicule of King Zhao Xiaocheng, and his fingers gently swirled on the map.
Sure enough, he was a self-confident person, Mao Sui just thought that it was difficult to lobby King Qin, but he didn't think about how he would get close to King Qin Zhaoxiang at all. It seems that in his cognition, as long as you let him do it, there is nothing he can't do.
Looking at Mao Sui, who was waiting for his reaction, Zhao Kuo smiled and turned to something else: "Sir, do you know Wei Ran's person?" ”
Of course, the famous Wei Ran Mao Sui had heard that this person had served four Qin ministers in his life, Dongyidi, and the weak princes all relied on this person's merits, so he said without thinking: "Of course it is clear that this person has made great contributions to the Qin State, but his merits are high, and he will not die well after all." ”
Zhao Kuo's focus was not on Wei Ran, he waited for Mao Sui to finish speaking and then said: "Sir, have you ever thought that at the beginning of the battle for the party, the Qin State sent that Zuo Chang Wang Di?" ”
Zhao Kuo's words were like a bolt of lightning that swept through Mao Sui's heart, making him quickly react to what Zhao Kuo meant, he stood up with a slight gaffe, and already admired the main general in his heart: "What does the general mean is that the object of my lobbying is Qin Xiang Fan Ju?" ”
Zhao Kuo nodded, admitting that Mao Sui was not wrong, and his target was Qin Xiang Fan Ju: "That's right, the reason why I let you go to Qin State is to Fan Ju." ”
"Back then, it was Wei Ran who single-handedly promoted Bai Qi, which can be regarded as a grace of knowledge. And Fan Ju single-handedly promoted the King of Qin to expel Mi Yue, Wei Ran, Jingyang, Gao Ling and others from the Qin political arena, so Fan and Bai have buried a grudge since then. ”
"Since the Shang Dynasty changed the law, the Qin people have attached great importance to meritorious service. This time to attack South Korea, the Qin people did not use a generation of famous generals Bai Qi, but pushed the little-known Wang Yi to the battlefield. I dare to assert that Wang Yi definitely belongs to the Fan Ju lineage. ”
"Fan Ju has always been eager to revenge, and after he served as the minister of Qin, he used the power of Qin to repay his own hatred. If you want to say that he has a heart for Bai Qitui, I won't believe it if he kills him! ”
"So Mr. wants to go to Xianyang, and it is precisely Qin Xiang Fan Ju who lobbied. I believe that Mr. has a strategy in mind at this time, so I won't say more. As long as I am not monolithic in the war of Changping, even if I can't do anything to change the generals, as long as Bai Qi has constraints in this Qin army, this so-called military strategy. ”
Mao Sui knew very well in his heart that since it was impossible to persuade King Qin to do this, then Fan Ju was definitely the easiest place to attack. With Fan Ju's power in the Qin State at this time, as long as he was suspicious of Bai Qi, then the Zhao State really had the possibility of defeating the Qin State in Changping.
Zhao Kuo saw Mao Sui's clear expression, and knew that he already understood what he should do: "Mr. is not famous, and he has a strategy in his heart, so he is naturally the best candidate to complete this task, so he asked Pingyuan Jun for Mr. ”
"The general attaches so much importance to a certain family, and a certain family should do its best to achieve the general's ambition. Without further ado, a certain family is ready to go. Mao Sui had already understood the cause and effect, this task gave him a great challenge, and he couldn't wait to set off for Qin.
Zhao Kuo was not so anxious, he hesitated for a moment and said: "Sir, slow, this is a long way to Qin, Mr. Kuo is afraid that he will encounter some trouble on the way, and he wants Mr. to bring two guards, does Mr. think so?" ”
In the final analysis, Zhao Kuo still didn't fully trust Mao Sui, in this Warring States where etiquette collapsed, the flow of talents seemed to be as simple as commonplace.
Calculating the time, at this time, Mao Sui had just invested in the Pingyuan Jun's sect, and there was no saying that he had raised him for three years.
If he is allowed to leave like this, the bamboo basket will be empty at that time, and it will be a busy time.
Mao Sui is such a transparent person, after Zhao Kuo finished speaking, he understood what kind of calculation this Zhao country lord would make.
However, it is also human nature, at least the other party did not act coercively, but asked for his own opinion.
Thinking of this, he patted the saber on his waist and said casually: "The general is too worried, although a certain family is not as good as those of you who are in battle, but he has a little strength, and a certain family is still not careful." ”
Zhao Kuo fell silent after hearing this, and Mao Sui's words were also very clear, I will definitely complete the task you have placed, so don't do anything else.
He thought about it for a while, but decided to believe Mao Sui on the other side. After all, there is no one more suitable for this task than him, so let Mao Sui set off alone.
Thinking of this, he showed a relieved smile on his face, and said calmly: "Then it's all up to Mr." ”
Zhao Kuo's generosity touched Mao Sui very much, the two of them had seen such a side at best, and the other party was able to trust him so much, which made him feel a wave of emotion in his heart that he would die as a confidant.
Mao Sui stood up and walked in front of Zhao Kuo and shook the ground: "Mao Sui will live up to the general's trust, and will definitely let the seeds of doubt be planted in Fan Ju's heart to help the general win this war!" ”
"Sir's trip to Xianyang is very dangerous, sir, sir, must be vigilant. If it is not possible to make a decision for the sake of making a decision, and leave the green mountains without worrying about the lack of firewood, please keep in mind. Zhao Kuo helped Mao Sui up, and told him again uneasily.
