Chapter 489: The King Teaches You, and You Teach All the Officials, if You Don’t Accept It, Bear with It! King Zhao Tuogu!

There was a sigh of regret in the hall.

Looking at the wars for many years, this battle is the most likely opportunity to severely damage the Qin State, and it is also the most likely battle to hinder the Qin State's crazy expansion.

If Ying Chengyu had not borrowed 100,000 troops from Qi, he quickly arrived at Handan City.

If Ying Zheng had not explicitly ordered the world to pass on the throne to Ying Cheng, the death of either Ying Zheng or Ying Cheng in battle would not have shaken the unification of Qin.

The battle will not be so difficult!

Even though Ying Chengyu strictly and completely followed Ying Zheng's orders, he rushed thousands of miles to aid Xianyang City and saved Xianyang City from falling.

Li Mu can at least take over all the four territories that the Qin State has managed for a long time, namely Hedong County, Shangdang County, Taiyuan County, and Yanmen County, and severely damage the Qin State!

Unfortunately, there is no if in reality.

Victory or defeat can only be determined by a thought!

The ministers had no choice but to hand over their hands in a solemn and unwilling tone: "Your Majesty is wise!"

However, Mao Sui had a troubled expression on his face: "Report to your Majesty!"

"If Lord Qin Changan really wants to become powerful, Lord Qin Changan will probably not accept the peace talks and delay them."

"You may even go to extreme lengths to avoid peace talks!"

King Zhao Yan's eyes narrowed: "It is a common practice in the world that the two armies are fighting without killing the envoy."

"How could he, Lord Qin Chang'an, risk the disapproval of the world and kill Doctor Mao!"

Mao Sui said calmly: "Although Lord Qin Chang'an is a gentleman, he has been doted on since childhood and has no rules or regulations."

"Moreover, Lord Qin Chang'an is already quite famous, so a little stigma will not affect his succession to the throne."

"I think that if Lord Qin Chang'an really wants to be powerful, he will definitely kill me!"

"With this, there is no room for change between our country, Zhao, and Qin. This war can only end if one side destroys the country."

"In this way, Lord Qin Changan's path to succeeding to the throne will be smooth!"

"The only way my mission can go smoothly and the peace talks can be successful is that although Lord Qin Changan says he is eager to ascend the throne, in fact he is not telling the truth and is still trying to protect the safety of King Qin!"

"But the possibility of the latter is extremely slim!"

In the past, when Pingyuan Jun did not choose him, Mao Sui recommended himself to follow him for the sake of his future and advancement, despite the strange looks of other disciples, and came up with the idiom "Mao Sui self-recommends".

Now Ying Chengyu only needs to refuse peace talks and wait for his succession to the throne.

The motivated Mao Sui, like Zhao Wangyan, could not imagine that Ying Chengyu would refuse the throne that was so easily available to him.

So Mao Sui had to prepare for the worst!

Zhao Wangyan laughed at himself: "It turns out that I don't want to negotiate peace."

"Now that I am willing to negotiate peace, I still have to look at Qin Changan's face?!"

In order to replace Ying Zheng's life, Zhao Wangyan even did not hesitate to die with Ying Zheng!

But for the sake of the country, Zhao Wangyan had to bow his head to his former enemies and sue for peace. This made Zhao Wangyan feel a great shame and humiliation!

As a result, now, even if he bows his head and sues for peace, whether he can succeed in suing for peace still depends on the face of Ying Zheng's younger brother? !

Zhao Wangyan didn't know for a moment whether to laugh at Ying Zheng for having a younger brother who wanted him dead.

Still angry at the plight he suffered!

Mao Sui sighed softly: "Now Zhao is weak, please be patient!"

"I will do my best to lobby Qin Chang'an Lord."

"If my minister dies, please don't get angry, let alone fight to the death with Qin because of this. You should immediately send envoys to continue lobbying."

"Qin Chang'an Lord can kill one envoy or two envoys, but if he kills the envoys one after another, the people of Qin will think that this person is a heartless, unrighteous, rude and unvirtuous person, and is not worth following."

"Someone will quietly report back to the King of Qin, so that the King of Qin will change his mind and force Qin Chang'an to accept the peace talks!"

King Zhao Yan shouted coldly: "How can I, Zhao, send envoys one after another and let Lord Qin Changan humiliate and massacre him!"

"Rather than humiliate my great Zhao, I will fight to the death!"

Mao Sui wanted to persuade him again, but Chulong came out of the queue and shouted: "What the king said is true!"

"If the master is insulted, the subject will die!"

"The king treats his ministers like brothers and sisters. How can I sit back and watch the king suffer this humiliation!"

Mao Sui was anxious.

What words?

What are you talking about?

Do I want to humiliate the king?

But this is the safest way now!

Chulong did not give Mao Sui a chance to speak, and said loudly: "I will invite three thousand elite soldiers to break out of the siege. I will send the king's order to Lord Wu'an, and order Lord Wu'an to give up the attack immediately and return to Handan to aid."

"In this way, Handan's difficulties will be solved!"

Mao Sui was shocked and quickly raised his hands: "Your Majesty, there are so many Qin troops outside the city!"

"Sending troops to break out is really a dead end!"

"And once we, Zhao, send troops to break out, Lord Qin Chang'an doesn't even need to kill the envoys anymore. He can use the reason that we, Zhao, are endlessly war-minded to reject my request for peace one after another!"

"It will be difficult for me, Zhao, to seek peace again!"

Chulong said firmly: "It is so naive to place peace on the enemy country!"

"Peace talks are on the lips, but they are on the edge of the sword!"

"Peace can only be fought for through the swords of soldiers!"

Mao Sui and Chu Long argued endlessly, while Zhao Wangyan frowned and thought.

The strategy proposed by Chulong is more rigid. Once it fails, everything will stop.

Although the strategy proposed by Mao Sui seems to be filling it with human lives, it does not leave the scope of lobbying for peace talks after all, and is more secure. Even if it fails once, it can be tried two, three, and countless times.

If it were Wang Xi of Yan, he would definitely choose Mao Sui's advice without hesitation.

But Zhao Wangyan is more willing to take the initiative in his own hands!

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Wangyan looked at Chulong: "Master Zuo, this is a very good strategy!"

"Of course, Master Zuo is already old, so I think we can choose someone else to carry out this strategy."

"Dear ministers, do you have any good ministers to recommend?"

Zhao Wangyan didn't look down on Chulong.

In fact, Chulong is nearly ninety years old.

People of this age may not be able to dance in the square after more than two thousand years, let alone lead an army to break out!

Guo Kai quickly calculated the talents in his bag.

However, as soon as Guo Kai handed over his hand, Chulong's eyes glared: "Does the king think that I am old and useless?!"

"Although I am over eighty years old, I can still eat millet every day and shoot a three-stone bow!"

"If the king doesn't believe it, I can prove it by wrestling with the king in this hall!"

Zhao Wangyan was speechless for a moment.

Even though Chulong is over eighty years old, Chulong's physical fitness is really much better than that of Zhao Wangyan!

Chulong said loudly: "Although I am old, I still have a clear name in the world."

"Today, Lord Wu'an sent troops outside Xianyang City. He was about to break the city and kill the king. However, he suddenly received a report from Handan Army, ordering him to stop attacking the city and return to Handan to aid."

"Mr. Wu An has reason to believe that there is fraud, and he also has reason to disobey orders."

"Wu Anjun has more reason to worry that the king will blame him for missing this opportunity to attack Xianyang City in the future."

"I believe that only by going there in person can I convince Lord Wu'an and lead his troops back to help immediately!"

Chulong spoke without restraint.

Because Chulong knew very well why Lian Po failed to return to Zhao! ! !

If Guo Kai did not come forward to recommend, Chulong would not support his old body to break through the encirclement.

But when Guo Kai came out, Chulong was afraid.

He was afraid that Li Mu would become the next Lian Po!

Guo Kai frowned slightly: "How could Mr. Wu An disobey orders and be disrespectful?"

"How can I be resentful towards the king?"

"Master Zuo's words are indeed true!"

Chulong looked at Guo Kai without flinching: "As Zuoshi, I am responsible for teaching the king and his ministers."

"You can teach the king from above, and you can train hundreds of officials from below!"

"If what I said has gone too far, bear with it!"

Facing Chulong with full firepower, Guo Kai had no choice but to look at Zhao Wangyan for help.

"Cough cough~ cough~"

He coughed up some blood foam again, Zhao Wangyan hid his right hand that was covering the blood foam, and looked at Chulong with gentle eyes: "Zuo Shicheng is the best candidate."

"I'm just worried about Master Zuo's safety."

"Since the Zuo Division is determined to break through, I will allocate five thousand elite troops to the Zuo Division."

"Master Zuo, please don't refuse!"

Chulong thought for a moment and solemnly raised his hands: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

Zhao Wangyan looked at Mao Sui again: "Doctor Mao should also be prepared to go out of the city to lobby Qin Chang'an."

"If Zuo Shi succeeds in breaking through, Dr. Mao's lobbying will be much easier."

Mao Sui felt bitter in his heart, but he had to bow his hands and salute: "Wei!"

Seeing that the business was almost done, Chulong said crisply: "I will go and rectify the troops and go to war as soon as possible!"

Zhao Wangyan shook his head: "Master Zuo, don't be anxious."

"It is said that the crown prince has moved!"

The ministers looked at each other with different eyes after hearing this, but they did not say anything and just waited patiently.

Not long after, the fair and lovely prince was led into the hall by the eunuch.

The ministers solemnly raised their hands: "Greetings to the Crown Prince!"

Zhao Qian ignored the ministers in the palace, but happily ran to King Zhao Yan: "Father!"

Looking at the little man running towards him, Zhao Wangyan couldn't help but smile: "Qian'er, come to my side."

Zhao Qian sat obediently next to King Zhao Yan, and looked surprised and frightened behind him: "Father, why is there blood!"

Zhao Wangyan patted Zhao Qian on the head: "It's all other people's blood, it doesn't matter."

"Come on, sit down!"

Under the guidance of Zhao Wangyan, Zhao Qian sat down closely next to Zhao Wangyan, and sat together with Zhao Wangyan on the throne that belonged to the pinnacle of Zhao's power!

The pupils of the ministers in the palace suddenly condensed.

The king was so stimulated by Ying Chengyu?

Zhao Wangyan patted Zhao Qian's hand and looked at Chulong: "If I die, Prince Qian will inherit my position."

"Order Zuo Shichulong and Xiangbang Guo Kai to guard the crown prince Qian on behalf of the widow, and to supervise the country on behalf of the crown prince Qian before he is crowned, and to return to power immediately after crown prince Qian is crowned!"

"No mistakes!"

Guo Kai cried out sadly: "Your Majesty!"

"The king is in his prime, how could he have such thoughts?"

"Please, Your Majesty, take back the decree! The Prince will be cared for and educated by Your Majesty himself!"

Chulong frowned: "The king really wants to appoint the crown prince to inherit the throne?"

Zhao Wangyan did not scold Chulong forcefully, but looked at Chulong expectantly: "I know that the prince Qian is young and has an unstable mind."

"Master Zuo, would you like to educate Prince Qian to become an excellent king?"

Chulong wanted to say, I'm sorry, I can't do it!

Your father said this to me before he died, but if you pick up the mirror and see what you look like, you will know whether I have this ability!

However, Master Zuo’s responsibility and inner perseverance still made Chulong reluctantly give up:

"My lord, take the order!"
