Chapter 944: Take Yingdu or not, this is a question

Handan, Longtai main hall.

The military information briefing has just ended.

Zhao Dan coughed and said, "June, this is the situation now. Wu Xinjun just ordered someone to send him eight hundred miles to hurry up. The above said that as long as I give orders, Yingdu can be immediately owned by me. Whether to take Yingdu is to be taken down, now you can express your opinions freely."

According to common sense, Zhao Sheng should be the first to speak.

But today Zhao Sheng seemed a little hesitant and did not seem to want to support the decision to take Yingdu.

Yu Xin glanced at Zhao Sheng and decided to speak first.

Yu Xin said to Zhao Dan: "King, now the three major families have been defeated and withdrawn from Yingdu. There are only 30,000 remaining troops of Li Yuan of Chu in Yingdu. It is a great time to take Yingdu! As long as you suddenly attack and take Yingdu and control the King of Chu in your hands, the destruction of Chu will be in front of you!"

From these words, we can see that Yu Xin strongly advocated taking Yingdu.

Zhao Dan refused to comment and quietly waited for the rebuttal that would inevitably appear next.

There is a saying that goes, the truth always becomes clearer the more you argue.

In many cases, the reason why Zhao Dan lets the ministers argue is because sometimes what the ministers say during the argument does indeed play a role in picking up the shortcomings of Zhao Dan's original ideas.

After all, three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang.

Zhao Dan glanced at Zhao Sheng.

Recently, Zhao Sheng and Yu Xin are not too much of a deal. Zhao Dan feels that Yu Xin's statement is likely to change Zhao Sheng's attitude immediately.

Sure enough, the next moment, Zhao Sheng snorted lukewarmly, and then said, "I cannot agree with Yu Qing's words. If you want to send troops, you should make a legitimate statement. The reason why Wu Xinjun led his army into Yingdu was to eliminate the forces of the three major families of Zhaojingqu. If the King of Chu was destroyed after driving away the three major families, then this move would definitely make the king and Zhao lose a lot in the hearts of the people of the world, which would increase the difficulty of conquering the Chu region in the future, and it would be completely unworthy of the loss."

As Zhao Dan expected in advance, after realizing Yu Xin's intention, Zhao Sheng began to express his opposition.

This gave Zhao Dan a headache. If the public clan sect and the common sect really developed to the point of brainless opposition to each other, that would not be a good thing.

We must put national interests first in everything, how can we oppose it for the sake of opposition?

Zhao Dan pondered for a moment and decided to continue observing.

Yu Xin said hesitating and said, "There were seven in the world before, but now Zhao has got the fifth one. Even if the people of Qin and Chu have some complaints, why should we be afraid? The people of Chu were originally barbarians. Even if they did not occupy Yingdu, these Chu people would be a problem in the future. Since this is the case, there is no need to take into account the ideas of Chu people! Yingdu is the core area of ​​Chu. As long as you take this area, it would be easy to destroy Chu!"

It is impossible for Yu Xin to give in, at least he will never give in at this time.

Zhao Sheng frowned, and a hint of anger flashed across his face. After all, Pingyuan Jun is no matter what, he is the recognized number one person in the Zhao Kingdom. Yu Xin is at best Zhao Sheng's deputy.

Now Yu Xin refuted Zhao Sheng in front of many important officials of Longtai, which naturally made Zhao Sheng feel quite dull and was absolutely impossible to tolerate.

We must continue to suppress it resolutely!

So the next moment, Zhao Sheng also retorted: "Yu Qing's words are wrong. If he breached the contract with Chu, then the people of the world will feel that we have no faith. This will not only affect Qin or Chu, but the whole world! People will not be able to establish themselves without trust. If they do not even have such a little credit, how can they win the trust of the world in the future?"

Yu Xin also argued with the truth and immediately said: "Chu State is the enemy. He should use any means to treat the enemy and take victory as the priority. What kind of reputation and disreputation should not be the scope of consideration now! King Zhao of Qin also detained King Huai of Chu without trust and righteousness. What was the result? The Qin State did not decline because of this kind of untrustful and unrighteous behavior, but reached its peak under King Zhao of Qin!"

"Who said there was no decline?" Zhao Sheng sneered: "It is precisely because of King Zhao of Qin's lack of faith and righteousness that Qin State failed in the Battle of Changping! If King Zhao of Qin could have more faith and righteousness back then, then the three kingdoms of Chu, Wei and Han would not stand on the side of my Zhao State, and Qin State would not have failed!"

Hearing this, Zhao Dan's expression on the throne couldn't help but move slightly.

To be honest, from Zhao Dan himself, he was actually very clear that if Qin's untrustworthy and unrighteous behavior was not caused by Zhao Dan's time travel, then Qin would have succeeded.

Things like Xinyi are sometimes useful, but sometimes they are useless. Otherwise, there would not be so many treacherous people who have been betrayal and deceived their superiors and subordinates and stole the rights of the country or even the throne from ancient times to the present.

After all, this world has never been like in fairy tales. Good people will always be rewarded, and evil people will be punished by God.

Looking at the two ministers in front of him who were still in fierce disputes, Zhao Dan fell into deep thought.

In fact, when Zhao Dan heard this, he could already feel that whether it was Zhao Sheng or Yu Xin, their starting point was for Zhao State, but the means of achieving the goal were inconsistent.

This somewhat relieved Zhao Dan.

In Zhao Sheng's view, "justified" is the most important thing. Even if you conquer another country, you should have to crush it with a dignified army, rather than a sudden change of mind and sneak attack.

Yu Xin's attitude is completely different from Zhao Sheng. In Yu Xin's opinion, any legitimate statement is nonsense. Only by occupying the land is serious.

Now that Chu State is so weak, he has a civil war, and he has gone through chaos. This opportunity has fallen from the sky. How can you miss it? If you miss it, it would be too stupid.

As for the treason... Anyway, there are only three countries in the world now. After destroying Chu, they will definitely kill Qin. Therefore, no matter how much Qin and Chu criticize Zhao, it doesn't matter.

Who would care about the complaints about a country that is about to perish? If you have any complaints, let the people of Chu take them underground and make an agreement with the King of Hell.

However, Zhao Dan also knew that Yu Xin was actually a little selfish.

After all, according to the current situation, once Zhao really decides to attack Chu immediately, Lian Po, who is in Yingdu, will definitely be the unscrupulous candidate for the chief general.

If Lian Po can become the chief general, then there is no doubt that as long as the Chu State is destroyed, the common people's sect will definitely have the greatest contribution to this round.

...

What Zhao Sheng wanted was to let Qin and Chu be killed by Zhao with reasonable and well-founded evidence, while Yu Xin thought about killing these two countries at the fastest speed.

But, how to choose?

It's really a troublesome issue.

Zhao Dan was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "Li Muqing's family, please tell me your opinion."

Li Mu led the army back to Handan three days ago.

Li Mu thought for a moment and said, "Go back to the king, I have not had much contact with the Chu army before. It should be based on the specific situation on the battlefield."

Zhao Dan smiled and said, "It's okay, you just say it."

Li Mu was silent for a while, and then said, "King, I think from the current situation of Chu State, if General Lian Po could take Yingdu, it would naturally be a major blow to Chu State, but if he said he wanted to destroy Chu State, it might not be possible."

Zhao Dan thought for a while and said, "What you mean is to destroy Li Yuan and three major families, right?"

"That's right." Li Mu nodded and said, "I think it's better to withdraw the troops first and take down the land ceded by Li Yuan steadily. Although the land ceded by Li Yuan belongs to the three major families, given the current situation of the three major families, they will never dare to continue to have any conflict with our army."

"In this way, the king can wait for Li Yuan and the three major families to kill each other. In this way, the chaos in Chu will inevitably lead to the misfortune of the people. At that time, the king will send the king's army to attack Chu and save the people of Chu from the fire and water. Then the people of Chu will definitely eat and drink to welcome the king's army. In this way, they can pacify Chu without any effort!"

As soon as Li Mu finished speaking, the entire hall fell into a temporary silence.

Zhao Dan looked at Li Mu in surprise, obviously not expecting that Li Mu could say such a thing.

To be honest, such tricks that can deceive people invisibly should generally be thought of by older politicians.

After all, those old bones have too many plans, so they are naturally confident when calculating others.

Although Li Mu is a great master of his generation from the perspective of military strategy, the problem is that Li Mu basically has no political experience. How could he come up with such a plan with a strong conspiracy atmosphere of old-fashioned political players?

Zhao Dan's eyes circled around the hall and suddenly realized something.

Now Li Mu is said to be actively looking for allies. Judging from the situation of the Supervisory Guardian, the relationship between Li Mu, Li Si and Zheng Zhu has been quite good in recent years.

It seems that one of these two people gave him the idea.

This may...is a good thing.

After looking at Li Mu deeply, Zhao Dan's face suddenly relaxed a lot, and he said slowly: "Okay, you can express your opinions next."

Pang Yan and Lian Po were not present, so there were only seven people.

Yu Xin's opinion was supported by Li Bo, while Li Mu's opinion was supported by Zhao Sheng, Li Si, Zheng Zhu and Ju Xin.

Zhao Dan nodded, glanced at Yu Xin with a somewhat ugly face, and finally made a decision: "Since that's the case, then there is no need to rush to let Wu Xinjun lead the troops to accept the land ceded by Li Yuan. It's about plan and New Year's Day. You can focus your attention on these two things first. As for the war, let's leave it until tomorrowchun."
