077 Loyal Ministers? Traitor? No, I'm a minister!

Qin Shi Huang became more and more interested.

The three generations of generals of the Wang family, the Meng family is also three generations of generals, although it is worth relying on, but there are also some big tails that cannot lose their merits, especially the last time Meng Tian tried to influence the heir to the throne, it made him a little jealous and dissatisfied with these famous generals who have been in charge of the army for generations, and he wants to seek a newcomer general who has no foundation and can fight against him.

And Guo Dong is undoubtedly the most suitable one for the entire court at this time, whether it is ability, status, relationship, intimacy, etc.!

"What are the requirements? Tell me about it? ”

So at this time, Qin Shi Huang has begun to stop worrying about Rong Di, a little Rong Di, the big deal is to recruit Meng Tian, who is close to the left, and it is just a matter of leading the troops to give a lesson, but he can cultivate a new general who can be of great use, which is what he wants most now!

In particular, Guo Dong doesn't have many soldiers and horses, 50,000 soldiers and horses, the Great Qin family has a big cause, and he can afford to pay it!

"The 50,000 soldiers and horses want to be mobilized from three places!"

"Which three?"

Qin Shi Huang's interest in his eyes is getting bigger and bigger, just 50,000 soldiers and horses, and he has to mobilize them from three places? It seems that these 50,000 soldiers and horses are really interesting!

"There are 13,000 soldiers and horses out of the soldiers and horses under the command of the last general himself, and when he passes through Shangjun, 30,000 are drawn from the Mengjia army, and the remaining 7,000 are wanted to be drawn from the prison!"

These three parts are even more interesting!

"Tell me about it!"

Guo Dong nodded: "Your Majesty also knows that after the last general took over the Xianyang garrison, he had carried out several adjustment trainings, and selected 13,000 soldiers and horses as elites from them, formulated special training for them, and created unique armor for them. ”

Qin Shi Huang nodded, such a big thing, and right under his nose, he naturally wouldn't not know, without his permission, Guo Dong would not be able to do these things.

"The 13,000 soldiers and horses under the command of the headquarters that the last general wants are this part, and the 7,000 soldiers and horses drawn from the prison are the old departments of the Juxian Hall who are imprisoned in various prisons!"

Guo Dong gave his life to Qin Shi Huang not to be promoted to make a fortune and glorify his ancestors, but to take charge of the military and master a army of his own, naturally, he was more concerned about the 60,000 army than anything else.

After taking over these 60,000 soldiers and horses, he could go through several screening trainings, and also exchanged many soldiers with several surrounding counties and generals with better relations, so that these 1,300 elites were made! Among them, 1,000 Mo swordsmen are the Broken Mountain Battalion, 2,000 crossbowmen are good for the Heaven Covering Battalion, 5,000 sword and shield hands are Demon Soldiers, and 5,000 3,000 chariot soldiers and 2,000 cavalry are Tiger and Wolf Cavalry!

In addition, Guo Dong also has a personal soldier of 200 people named Huguo Battalion, which is actually 200 special forces. 60,000 soldiers and horses, plus the successive transfer of soldiers and horses, adding up to 100,000 elite soldiers, Guo Dong only selected a total of 200 special forces, which is still relatively simple and primitive, but he has professional special forces king skills, which is definitely much stronger than the two knives of the so-called Flying Tigers that Yi Xiaochuan made in the original book!

"I can understand these two things, but I don't understand the last part of the seven thousand soldiers and horses that Aiqing requested!"

Qin Shi Huang frowned slightly: "If I remember correctly, although the old department of the Juxian Hall is all over the place, most of them are concentrated in Xianyang City and the surrounding counties, when they were first arrested, more than eight of the ten people in the Juxian Hall were sent by you, and even led people to arrest them in person!" They also include your master Xiang Liang, as well as your senior brother Xiang Yu, and Yi Xiaochuan, the general of the palace gate before me. ”

Speaking of this, Qin Shi Huang was still afraid that he would remember wrongly, so he turned his head to look at Zhao Gao and Li Si, and the two of them nodded slightly and gave him a clear answer.

"Aiqing, my uncle, aren't you afraid that they will hold a grudge against you, disobey you, and even turn against you?"

Guo Dong bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, it is precisely for this reason that the last general also asked Your Majesty to transfer three people as the deputy generals and pioneers of the last general." ”

Not......

Qin Shi Huang groaned, his fingers tapped lightly on the table, and the courtiers who were familiar with him knew that this action represented that Qin Shi Huang was seriously thinking about things, and he must not be disturbed!

"Let me guess, the three people you are talking about should be your master Xiang Liang who is in charge of the three armies for you, and suppresses and governs the old department of Juxiantang, your senior brother Xiang Yu leads the army to break the formation, and Yi Xiaochuan is in charge of the 30,000 soldiers and horses seconded from the Mengjia Army for you, what I said is right?"

Guo Dong was slightly stunned, and then reflected, if Qin Shi Huang can't understand this thing, he doesn't know, then he is not Qin Shi Huang, not the emperor of the ages who unified the six countries and dominated the eight wildernesses!

"Guo Ziliang! Do you know how many people will impeach you for forming a party for personal gain, colluding with the remnants of the Six Nations, and even supporting the army for self-respect and attempting to rebel? ”

Qin Shi Huang's eyes stared at Guo Dong like a torch.

Seeing that Qin Shi Huang neither called Aiqing nor Uncle Guo, but directly called Guo Dong's full name, and also personally installed so many charges against the nine clans, Zhao Gao's heart was full of chuckles, and he subconsciously wanted to intercede for Guo Dong, but he didn't want Guo Dong to nod very calmly and said: "I know!" ”

"The last general knows that since the last general began to adjust the soldiers and horses, many people have been impeaching me, but the last general also dares to say that from beginning to end, the last general is worthy of the four words of loyalty to the monarch and serving the country, and he has not dared to forget for a moment from beginning to end."

Zhao Gao was worried there, but Guo Dong was very calm, and his expectations were neither high nor low, not so much to distinguish for himself, but to state the facts.

"All things, whether it is the restructuring and training of soldiers in the army, the large-scale forging of weapons and armor, joining the Juxian Hall, managing the Juxian Hall, quitting the Juxian Hall, arresting the Juxian Hall, and arranging positions for the members of the Juxian Hall, these things will be done in the end worthy of conscience, worthy of Your Majesty, and worthy of Daqin. No matter how big or small the matter is, as long as it is related to the family and country, the end will never be covered up or hidden, above board, and never sneaky! ”

Qin Shi Huang frowned, did not interrupt him at all, and waited until he finished speaking, Qin Shi Huang asked him: "Then I ask you, among these things, do you have selfish intentions?" ”

Normally, it must be all kinds of denials, full of loyalty and righteousness in the world of the family and country, Zhao Gao has already started to play on the side for a while, how to help, who knows that Guo Dong is the same as just now, and he is still so unconventional: "Yes!" In addition to being worthy of the trust and responsibility of the family and the world and His Majesty, the generals also have their own selfishness, and these things and people are either more or less related to the general, or they are also of great benefit to the general himself! ”

Bang!

Qin Shi Huang slapped the table fiercely, Zhao Gao's heart was suddenly panicked, not to mention him, even Li Si and other officials trembled in their hearts, and subconsciously knelt down, only Guo Dong was still standing there, slightly hunched and clenched his hands into fists.

"Good! What a national uncle Guo Ziliang who defended Xianyang! What a lion man Guo Dong who redefines a manly husband! Good! Good! ”

Unexpectedly, to everyone's expectations, Qin Shi Huang not only did not have the slightest anger, but laughed out loud.

"Selfishness? Who in this world is not selfish? Who dares to say that even if there is one thing, it will never be selfish or beneficial to oneself? But who dares to stand in front of me openly and speak out with a clear conscience and frankness? Only Guo Dong and Guo Ziliang, my uncle and general, are bright and fair, and they are really big husbands! ”

As he spoke, Qin Shi Huang stood up directly, walked around from behind the table and stood in front of Guo Dong!

"Uncle Guo, I have heard that when the Juxian Hall was opened, Uncle Guo did not hesitate to anger Master Xiang Liang and scold Senior Brother Yi Xiaochuan in order to avenge Zhao Gao, and said that a manly husband has something to do and something not to do, and finally asked Mr. Xiang Liang what a manly man is, so that he can have the words of Uncle Guo's name that moved the world!"

Hearing Qin Shi Huang suddenly mention this matter somehow, Zhao Gao's cold sweat flowed down instantly, and he was just about to kneel over to explain a thing or two, when he saw Qin Shi Huang waving his hand at him to signal him not to speak, turned his head and continued to say to Guo Dong: "When Uncle Guo personally led troops to arrest most of the members of Juxian Hall before, it was also because of this incident and another amazing remark that Mr. Xiang Liang took the people of Juxian Hall without the slightest resistance, and followed Uncle Guo to the prison. And Uncle Guo is also called arresting, but he is respectfully escorted all the way, Uncle Guo, I don't know if there are these things? ”

Guo Dong nodded without hesitation: "Yes!" Every single one of these things is real! ”

did not deny it, let alone explain it in half a sentence, but admitted it very simply and completely!

"Okay, just decisive, frank, and clear-minded, what a Guo Dong Guo Ziliang! Then I ask you, what is a loyal minister, and what is a traitor? ”

Li Si and other officials don't dare to come out of the atmosphere now, and today's Qin Shihuang and Guo Dong don't know what medicine they took wrong or what madness, they are even very abnormal at the same time, every word and every reaction is diametrically opposed to ordinary people, which makes people can't figure their heads at all!

"The last general believes that loyalty to the monarch and serving the country and performing their duties is loyalty to the minister, and it is also the most basic measure! on, defend the family and defend the country and assist His Majesty; below, governing the land and securing the people; If you are worthy of Your Majesty, worthy of your duties, the right people in the right place, and the right soldiers under your command, you are a qualified and loyal minister. Such a loyal minister, even if he has a little selfish and miscellaneous desires, or even greedy for money and other corrupt acts, as long as it is not excessive and does not violate the above principles, he can still be regarded as a loyal minister, and he cannot be regarded as a traitor, after all, no one is perfect, and everyone has their own selfish desires and preferences! ”

"But if under the guise of loyalty or the country, for the sake of one's own faction, doctrine, popularity, reputation, or the so-called history of the people, etc., indiscriminately, regardless of right or wrong, regardless of whether it is suitable or not, he will directly admonish and reprimand, even if there is no corruption and perversion of the law, the living with clean sleeves will not be regarded as a loyal minister! Because they are not loyal to their family and country, but to their own interests, or external things, or their posthumous name. And such a courtier, in general, except for one who can only be picky internally and compare his duties, is of no use to the country and the people at all! The last general believes that such honest courtiers are no different from those traitorous ministers who have been so corrupt that they have neglected their duties and destroyed the bottom line of principles, but they are just different from what they are traitorous and greedy, but they are not beneficial to the country, but they are very harmful! ”

Guo Dong's words are still subversive of people's concepts as always, and even Qin Shi Huang, who had been mentally prepared before asking this question, was a little unacceptable for a while.

However, Qin Shi Huang had another question for Guo Dong: "Uncle Guo, do you think you are a traitor or a loyal minister?" ”

Loyal ministers, undoubtedly loyal ministers, this is the answer that has appeared in everyone's hearts!

"The last general is not a loyal minister, and he doesn't dare to be a traitor, if he wants to have a position, the last general thinks that the cadre can be a minister or a minister is more suitable for the last general!"
