The King of Qin asked, "Then who is suitable to envoy to the Zhao State?" ”

Everyone looked at Xiang Shaolong, if Xiang Shaolong wanted to go, then forget it, after all, it was a strategy from others, but if Xiang Shaolong didn't want to go, then he could fight for it.

Listening to Xiang Shaolong's meaning, the chance of success is very great, and it doesn't cost a soldier to change the five cities, this kind of thing has to be mixed up, even if the idea is not his own, but the credit of the envoy is indispensable.

Xiang Shaolong was also entangled in his heart, this envoy was Ganluo's battle of fame, and he worshiped Shangqing at the age of twelve, which was unprecedented in ancient and modern times. If you go out by yourself, the credit will fall on your head, will this opportunity be let or not?

Xiang Shaolong looked at Lu Buwei, gritted his teeth, and said, "The king, the minister can send one person to envoy Zhao State." ”

In history, Lü Buwei was able to recommend Ganluo, isn't his mind as good as Lü Buwei?

When everyone heard this, Xiang Shaolong didn't want to go, so they all pricked up their ears to listen to Xiang Shaolong's opinion.

King Qin asked, "Who does Shaolong think is suitable?" ”

Xiang Shaolong said: "The minister recommended the prince's companion to read, Ganluo." ”

"What?"

This suggestion was too unexpected for King Qin, and among these people present, only King Qin was familiar with Ganluo. Although he also thinks that Gan Luo is very smart, but it is too childish to let him go for such a big matter.

King Qin blurted out: "He's only twelve years old!" There was shock in his tone.

When everyone was still wondering who "Gan Luo" was, they heard King Qin say that he was only twelve years old, and they were in an uproar.

Everyone thinks that they have taken credit for nothing, but letting a twelve-year-old child do it, it is easy to mess things up, not only in vain, but in fault.

The ministers all felt that this was a good opportunity to snatch credit from the generals, and they couldn't bear to let a twelve-year-old child waste this great opportunity, and they couldn't help but think in their hearts: "Does Xiang Shaolong have a grudge against this Ganluo?" ”

King Qin asked, "Is Ganluo too small?" ”

Lü Buwei also said: "Twelve years old? Can you take on the heavy responsibility of envoying Zhao to the country? ”

Xiang Shaolong said: "Twelve years old is enough. You may not know Gan Luo, he is the grandson of Gan Mao. When he came to me in Daliang, he was not yet ten years old, and his knowledge and bearing were no longer like a child. I recommended him to the crown prince, and he studied with the prince, and he has grown rapidly in recent years, and there is no problem for him to go to Zhao State. Some people can't be judged by common sense. Back then, HD was besieged, the Yan people were attacking, and Prince Zheng was not yet ten years old, but he took the initiative to follow me to defend against foreign enemies. At that time, he was just a peasant boy, but he had such courage. Extraordinary people should do extraordinary things, if Gan Luo is just an ordinary teenager, how to be the prince's companion, I will not recommend him to the prince, we can't judge success or failure simply by age. ”

When King Qin heard Xiang Shaolong praise the crown prince, he couldn't help but smile, thinking about it, this Ganluo is usually good at speaking and quick-witted, and it is nothing to envoy Zhao Guo.

Xiang Shaolong also knew that it was a bit difficult to recommend a child to get King Qin to agree, he had to make him happy first, there was nothing more than praising his own child, and making parents happy. and used the prince as a model of young talents, so that he also has face and lining.

Lu Buwei saw that Xiang Shaolong's sycophant was so skillful, and felt that this Shaolong was too arrogant, and asked: "Let a child go, wouldn't it make Zhao Guo think that I have no one in Daqin?" ”

Xiang Shaolong said: "It's not that I have no one in Daqin, but that my Daqin talent is at its peak, and a small matter like sending Zhao Guo can be done by one child." I also want to implore the king, after Gan Luo comes back, I will praise him a lot, and let the world see that I Daqin is eclectic in employing people, as long as you are talented, even if it is a child, it will not be buried, and we dare to make an exception. ”

Xiang Shaolong really said all the good things, and there is still the meaning of advertising, let him say this, he can't let Ganluo go.

Lü Buwei finally asked, "What if he messes up?" ”

Xiang Shaolong said: "If you mess up, you will start a war, anyway, don't you want to start a war at the beginning?" ”

Lu Buwei is angry, can you use this attitude for national affairs?

Xiang Shaolong didn't want to be entangled anymore, and said to King Qin: "King, in fact, the one who knows Ganluo best is the prince, why don't you ask the prince's opinion." If it weren't for the different identities of the princes, the prince would be the most suitable candidate. "One more slap at the end of the discussion.

The King of Qin had already decided in his heart to send Gan Luo as an envoy to Zhao.

An opportunity that Lü Buwei painstakingly created was again disturbed by Xiang Shaolong. After Guan Zhongye heard the news, he was also discouraged, and now he felt more and more that he couldn't mess with Xiang Shaolong.

That night, Gan Luo came to the General's Mansion to thank Xiang Shaolong for his support.

Gan Luo took a deep look and said, "Thank you, Lord Zuo, for not thinking that Gan Luo is young, and recommending me to envoy Zhao Guo, I will live up to the trust of my lord." ”

Xiang Shaolong helped Gan Luo up and said, "No courtesy." I know that you are smart and wise, so I recommend you to the prince, hoping that you will become the prince's minister of the humerus in the future. Now it's no longer enough for you to simply read, read to death, read to death, and in the end it's just Zhao Kuo of the Battle of Changping. The edge of the sword is sharpened, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold, which may be a little early for others, but for you, you should be able to take on greater responsibility. ”

Gan Luo was very excited, a twelve-year-old child, who was so valued by Lord Zuo Xiang, really had the consciousness of "the one who is a confidant dies".

Gan Luo asked, "Is there anything else you want to tell me?" ”

Xiang Shaolong said: "No, it is you who sent Zhao Guo, you don't have to ask me everything, decide for yourself." You just need to remember that my Daqin is your strong backing, don't be afraid, even if you fail, it's nothing, your growth is my Daqin's most valuable wealth. ”

Gan Luo bowed deeply again and said, "Lord Xie." ”

Everyone didn't understand Xiang Shaolong's recommendation, and they didn't understand why they wanted to let a twelve-year-old child envoy Zhao Guo. Is it his own high style and righteousness that gave up this credit? Or is he narrow-minded and doesn't want credit for himself, and would rather give you a child than other important ministers? Or, as he himself said, this is a star-making movement, advertising the Qin State?

Xiang Shaolong was willing to recommend Ganluo, but he didn't want to bury the name of a prodigy that Ganluo should have, and it was also a struggle against his own desires.

Ganluo's trip went smoothly, and he returned to Xianyang with the map and household registration of the five cities in Hejian.

Xiang Shaolong did not give any instructions and help for Ganluo's travel, and it was all up to Ganluo to deal with it himself, and Ganluo lived up to expectations and returned with a full load.

It's a pity that the strategy of this envoy is according to Xiang Shaolong's original design, and Ganluo's credit has also been discounted, and he was not worshiped as Shangqing after he came back, but he is still famous all over the world, and he is also grateful to Xiang Shaolong.

Zhao Guo took out the five cities, got the promise of Qin State, and immediately began to arrange the plan to attack Yan, but these Qin States didn't care.

The training of the female soldiers is in full swing, and the family behind them is bitter. Like Changping Jun and Qi Gong, who have a good relationship with Xiang Shaolong, they often come to urge Xiang Shaolong to go to acceptance, if you can't give a happy word, you will pay if you can't, and if you can't, you will take it away quickly. If this continues, they will all have to eat bran vegetables.

Xiang Shaolong wanted to delay them for a few more days, but seeing that they were really a little nervous, he went to test it. He took the group of gold lords to the barracks.

On the school field, the female soldiers lined up neatly and had high morale, although they were a little less murderous, but their spirit was definitely okay.

The instructors he sent also reported to him the training during this time, training hard, beating and scolding, cherishing this hard-won opportunity very much, no matter how hard and tired he is, he can eat enough, what else can he not bear?

Those young ladies began to practice too, but they couldn't hold on for a few days. Ying Ying was still adamant that she could persist with Xiang Shaolong at that time, but she really practiced it before she knew the hardships. Fortunately, the training is not aimed at them, they practice if they like, and no one cares if they don't practice. Even so, their spirit is refreshed, and their kung fu practice is not very good, but the momentum of the female general is out.

Xiang Shaolong looked at these female soldiers who still belonged to the recruit company, their kung fu was naturally just a fist and embroidered legs in Xiang Shaolong's eyes, but they had obviously taken off the simplicity of a farmer and had the sassy and heroic posture of a soldier.

Overall, Xiang Shaolong is very satisfied. Ying Ying looked at Xiang Shaolong proudly, as if she was waiting for Xiang Shaolong's praise.

Xiang Shaolong did not hesitate to praise himself, gave Ying Ying a thumbs up, and said: "What a team of red women's army, General Ying, admire, admire." ”

Ying Ying was triumphant and said, "From now on, we will be the same." ”

Xiang Shaolong said: "It's not the same, you have to see it after the king sees it." ”

Ying Ying said: "Then you go to the king." ”

Xiang Shaolong said: "If you want the king to agree, you have to work harder." In this way, I will give you another three months to concentrate on training the queue, and I will invite the king here, and we will have a military parade. ”

When everyone heard that it would take three months, they were immediately angry, this young dragon is not a thing, you said okay, just hurry up and find the king, and it will be delayed for another three months.

Gong Yi leaned on the old man and said: "Shaolong, if you think it's okay, hurry up and apply to the king, if not, take it away quickly to be your worker, wait for three months, we can't afford it." ”

Xiang Shaolong said: "Duke Qi is modest, just such a little person, he can't eat you." ”

Duke Qi said angrily: "Do you still have to wait for us to be eaten before looking for the king?" ”

Xiang Shaolong said: "Gong Qi is angry. If you want the king to pay willingly, you have to make the king feel that it is worth it. I'll design a military parade for them, and I'm sure none of you have ever seen it. ”

Gong Qi said angrily: "What does it cost so much money to look at? ”

Xiang Shaolong rolled his eyes and said, "Didn't I pay for it?" Their equipment is all from me, the same as the one used by my guards, do I want money? If you are really in a hurry, you can go to the king and ask for money yourself. ”
