It is said that Qin and Jin were good, but the relationship between Qin and the successors of Jin, that is, the three Jins, was extremely bad.
In fact, when Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, the three Jins resisted the most fiercely and cruelly.
Well...the compensation for ceding territory does not include South Korea, which must lose every battle.
As for the Qi State and the Yan State, they were diplomatic relations between far and near, and there was not much at stake. That is to say, Prince Dan brought Jing Ke to assassinate Qin, otherwise there would be nothing to say except that the country would be destroyed.
The one who really had a better relationship with Qin was Chu.
Although there were constant wars between Qin and Chu, the relationship between the two sides was indeed good.
From Empress Dowager Xuan to Mrs. Huayang, and then to the Chu clan, it was proof that the relationship between the two countries was good. That is to say, when Qin destroyed Chu, it was considered a complete fall out.
Lu Buwei was caught off guard and encountered a series of attacks. His control over the king was forced to loosen, and he had to give in temporarily when facing Zhao Ji.
But what kind of character is he?
To be able to risk all his wealth and life for a possibility, and go all out to become a ruthless person with "a rare commodity to live in"!
Lu Buwei, who suffered such a heavy loss, immediately launched a counterattack.
The first thing he did was to propose a wedding for the king, and the wedding partner was the daughter of the King of Chu!
People who don’t understand this matter will naturally not be able to understand it.
But if you are someone who understands, it would be like Li Si pretending to understand when he asked Li Yunze, "What does Prime Minister Lu mean by doing this?"
Li Yunze sneered, immersed himself in eating and ignored him.
Li Si scratched his head and could only think about himself and said, "It seems that Prime Minister Lu saw that there was no way to stop Changping Lord from being appointed right minister, so he wanted to introduce a group of people from Chu State to divide their power and disrupt their factions."
"Don't you see clearly?"
Li Yunze finally put down his chopsticks and picked up the pottery cup filled with wine. "Since we can't win favors from the Chu clan, and we can't stop Lord Changping from ascending to the throne, let's just bring in another group of Chu people and let them fight among themselves.
"
Of course, it is impossible for a king in this era to marry just a princess.
In addition to the prince's daughter, there are more than thousands of concubines in dowry, palace servants in service, sergeants in guard, kinsmen and military officials serving as confidants, musicians and painters as followers, slaves as dowry gifts, etc., etc.
When these people came to Qin, it was natural for the Princess of Chu to become the leader of the Chu clan, just like the Queen Mother Xuan and Lady Huayang.
As an old man, Lord Changping would naturally be in trouble, and it would be difficult to mobilize the power of the Chu clan to fight against him.
At the same time, giving Ying Zheng a wife will give him more excuses to stay quiet and stop causing trouble.
After all, in addition to studying, he also had the added responsibility of having an early heir.
"Tsk, tsk, it kills two birds with one stone. It's really experienced and smooth."
As if he had thought of something, Li Si looked at Li Yunze eagerly, "Prime Minister Lu is not stupid. After all this time, he should know that you are the one making the plans. It doesn't look like Prime Minister Lu is a thoughtful person..."
"What are you afraid of?"
Li Yunze drank wine leisurely and said, "Just use whatever tricks you have. If you don't use them, wouldn't it be too boring?"
Li Si wanted to roll his eyes, but finally restrained his impulse, and made serious calculations for him again, "If you come here to do it, the strongest swordsman under Prime Minister Lu's family will all die under your chopsticks. If you still want to do it, then...
The only thing we can do is to mobilize people and take advantage of your unpreparedness to gather around and kill them."
"Well, that's a good point."
Li Yunze, who was listening here, did not have the slightest fear, but his smile became even brighter: "How many people do you think Lu Buwei can mobilize to surround and kill me?"
"You have the reputation of being an enemy of hundreds of people..." At this point, Li Si said simply, "No matter how powerful you are, can you still withstand strong bows and crossbows? When the time comes, dozens of strong crossbows will be brought out to point at you.
So what if you are powerful? Why did you offend Prime Minister Lu to death like this?"
Li Yunze did not respond to his words, but just fiddled with the wine glass in his hand and asked, "Let's not talk about crossbows and so on. Please tell me, if Lu Buwei came to Ming, how did he get there?"
"It goes without saying."
Speaking of this, Li Si became more energetic: "The Qin Dynasty built a country with force, and military merit was the most important thing. Prime Minister Lu lacked a foundation in the Qin Dynasty, so he would naturally send troops to Guandong to boost his prestige."
"When the time comes, I will take you with me and assign you a fatal task that you cannot complete."
There are many missions that cannot be completed, such as ascending first when attacking a fortified city.
If you defeat them, you will basically die on the city wall. If you cannot defeat them, it will be easier, and they will be dealt with directly by military law.
The severity of Qin's military laws is unimaginable to ordinary people.
"This is a good idea."
Li Yunze didn't have the slightest fear, but instead smiled, "It's a good idea to get rid of the thorn in the side with justifiable authority."
"It's easy to break this method." Li Si laughed and said, "Just don't go."
"It's indeed a good idea."
Li Yunze nodded, "But you also said that the Qin Dynasty established its country with military exploits. Since there is a chance to achieve military exploits, why not go?"
Li Si was too lazy to say anything more. What this guy said could make someone angry to death.
Are you not afraid of being surrounded and killed by retainers, strong bows and crossbows, and not even afraid of bloody battles with large armies?
Li Si admitted that Li Yunze was very powerful, beyond his imagination. After all, he had witnessed with his own eyes picking leaves and flying flowers, flying chopsticks and so on.
But he didn't believe that he could withstand a hard crossbow, or even perform an unparalleled feat in the midst of thousands of troops and still survive.
Is that still a human being?
While he was speechless, he saw an eunuch trotting in and saluting, "Your Majesty, sir, please go to the martial arts arena."
After hearing this, Li Yunze did not stand up in a hurry. Instead, he turned to look at Li Si, "Tell me, what is this?"
Li Si understood it after a moment's thought. He asked the eunuch, "Are all the noble disciples who have entered Xianyang Palace to accompany them to study here?"
The eunuch naturally nodded repeatedly.
"There's no need to ask." Li Si smiled, "Of course the king wants all the noble disciples to see what you are capable of."
"I'm too capable, I'm afraid I'll scare them."
Li Yunze finally stood up, "That's all, just keep it down."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! All the way to the martial arts field, you saw Ying Zheng in a hunting suit, standing in the martial arts field with high spirits and holding a bow, doing the same with a large group of people surrounding him.
The young man in smart clothes was saying something.
Seeing Li Yunze appear, Ying Zheng immediately smiled, waved to Li Yunze and shouted, "Sir, here~~~"
All the young people naturally looked over.
There are naturally various meanings in that gaze.
Limited by technological level, the speed of message transmission in this era is very slow.
But no matter how slow it is, after such a long time has passed, the story of Li Yunze's fragrant butcher shop in Xianyang City, flying chopsticks and flying chopsticks on the table, and the story of picking leaves and flying flowers in the imperial garden of Xianyang Palace, are enough to spread.
For the noble disciples, being young and vigorous is the time when they are not afraid of the heaven and the earth.
After hearing about Li Yunze's unimaginable feats, he naturally wanted to witness them and even compete with them.
So when they saw Li Yunze approaching, everyone held their heads high and their chests straight, squinting in a heroic manner. There were even some people with provocative eyes, eager to compete with Li Yunze and test his depth... Bah! This is an experience.
His ability!
"gentlemen."
Ying Zheng was in a good mood. When he saw Li Yunze coming over, he went to hold his hand and said with a slight complaint, "Why do you have to invite me every time so that you, sir, are willing to come?"
"If you stay with the king all day long, wouldn't you become a eunuch?"
Li Yunze joked, which immediately made Ying Zheng smile.
After joking for a while, Li Yunze introduced these noble disciples around him.
"Wang Jian's son Wang Ben is young and brave, and has the talent of a general..."
"Meng Ao's grandson Meng Yi is well versed in literature, Taoism and military strategy..."
"This is Meng Yi's brother Meng Tian. He has great ambitions and military strategies. He is a talented general..."
"This is the son of Qiangxu..."
"This is Zhang Tang's son..."
"This is Fan Yuqi's son..."
"This is Yang Duanhe's son..."
"This is Huanjue's son..."
"..."
No wonder Ying Zheng was so excited. He accepted Li Yunze's suggestion and tentatively extended his hand to the nobles of the Old Qin people. He did not expect to receive such an enthusiastic response.
At this moment, Ying Zheng's back immediately stiffened.
You must know that more than 70% of the military power of the Qin Dynasty is in the hands of these warriors.
The rest are, of course, in the hands of the royal family and relatives.
In history, the most fundamental reason why Lao Ai's rebellion failed was that he had no soldiers.
Even though Lao Ai was granted the title of Marquis and had thousands of followers who dared to fight, it was useless in front of the real Qin army.
If you don't have military power but want to start a rebellion, there is no chance of survival other than death.
Li Yunze's eyes swept over these young and immature faces, and pictures with a strong sense of history emerged in his mind.
Destroyed the six kingdoms, attacked the Xiongnu, and went to South Vietnam.
When the Qin Empire was rampant across the world, they were everywhere.
Li Yunze sighed, "The breast tiger of the empire."
The Qin State has produced famous generals in large numbers throughout the ages. This is definitely not Feng Shui or a coincidence.
It's because the Qin Dynasty at this time was a standard classical military-state-ism country. To put it more intuitively, it had a national army.
After hundreds of years of war, warriors are either fighting or on their way to fight every day, and all they think about are war-related things.
Under such an environment, it is only natural that generations of generals who are proficient in warfare are born.
In eras where martial arts were popular, for example, during the Han and Tang dynasties, famous generals emerged in large numbers.
But it won't work anymore, especially after Confucianism became prosperous. The so-called famous generals were all rare, and they were even stolen from the world by the bastards who didn't even bother to take a second look in the past.
Talk back.
Li Yunze greeted the distinguished disciples with a smile on his face, as if they knew each other.
Here Wang Ben couldn't wait to jump out, "I've heard about Mr.'s name for a long time, and his skills in picking leaves and flying flowers amaze everyone. We would like to ask Mr. for advice..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Si couldn't help but laugh out loud.
