Chapter 540 I will take responsibility for the abuse
Move time forward.
In the Wei army camp.
Because of his experience of living in the State of Zhao for more than ten years, Lord Xinling has a huge influence on the Zhao State. Although he does not deliberately control the Zhao State's political affairs, no matter what information the Zhao State has, he cannot hide it from his ears.
.
Just like the news about King Zhao's hunting back then, he could know it while sitting in the palace of King Wei. After King Zhao Qian succeeded to the throne, the news had already reached Lord Xinling's ears before the edict depriving Li Mu of his military power was published.
Regarding the death of King Zhao Yan and his succession to the throne, Lord Xinling felt that it would have some impact on He Zong, but since the new king successfully succeeded to the throne and there were no fluctuations in the country, he did not take any action.
But who would have thought that the new King Zhao would act so randomly!
"Children are ignorant!"
Wei Wuji was furious after hearing the news.
He was able to calmly deal with the troubles in Yan State before because Yan State's status was the least important among the five unified kingdoms, but it was different when it was changed to Zhao State.
The five kingdoms joined forces to attack Qin and divided their troops into three routes. The main force on the northern front was the Zhao army. Once Zhao was in turmoil, the joint attack would be equivalent to a third defeat, and the Qin soldiers under Wang Jian would also be liberated. This would
If one is positive and the other is negative, the overall situation will collapse in an instant.
And such a thing is something that Lord Xinling will never allow to happen!
"This alliance may be our last chance. The Qin State has its internal ministers and kings fighting each other. In addition, Chu State's Chun Shenjun and Zhao State's Li Mu are all people we can rely on, so we can achieve the current situation."
Wei Wuji clenched his fingers and paced back and forth in the tent, "If we can't succeed this time, we will no longer have the power to resist Qin. This great situation must not be ruined by a child with a yellow mouth!"
What he didn't say was that he was also thinking that this might be his last chance.
As the younger brothers of King Wei, the age gap between the two is not big. King Wei was seriously ill before, which shows that both of them have reached the stage of aging and sickness. In addition, Lord Xinling was depressed when he was not trusted by the king.
Indulging in drinking and sex also hurt the body. Now that I have been leading the army for a long time, I gradually feel that I am not capable of doing what I want.
Therefore, Wei Wuji always had a sense of urgency in his heart.
"Your Majesty..."
Zhu Hai, Mao Gong, Xue Gong and others in the tent had never heard Lord Xinling curse someone with such fierce words, and they looked at each other for a while. After all, the yellow-mouthed boy was the new King of Zhao, and Lord Xinling had always been praised
As a model of a gentleman, why today...
However, Wei Wuji had no time to care about the thoughts of his disciples at this time, and his steps became more and more hasty.
"Li Mu will not resist King Zhao's orders, nor can he." After all, King Zhao has to provide the logistical supplies.
"So to solve this problem, we have to start from the source..."
He unfolded the intelligence and reviewed the whole incident and all the details.
"Did Guo Kai propose it, and then he agreed, and King Zhao Qian issued the decree..."
"Wang Qian of Zhao was young and ignorant, and the court was controlled by the queen advocate and the treacherous prime minister. With these two people around, the Zhao country will never have peace!"
Lord Xinling quickly clarified the root cause behind this incident.
But it is precisely because of this that it feels particularly difficult.
If it were just Guo Kai's problem, that would be it. He was just a traitor. At this moment of military crisis, it wouldn't be a big deal to get rid of him directly.
But the key is to advocate!
She is the mother of the current King Zhao. King Zhao is young and does need help from someone to govern, but the level of this initiative is really too low!
Although this is actually quite normal. After all, we cannot require every queen mother who hangs the curtain to be a strong person like Empress Lu or Mi Bazi, but at least you can't make trouble!
At the critical moment when the five kingdoms unite to attack Qin, you want to take back the military power of the best general in the country. Is this something that a human can do?!
After thinking about it, Wei Wuji finally focused his gaze: "Where is the former Prince Jia of the State of Zhao?"
"Your Majesty, what do you want?"
Zhu Hai had no reaction, but Mao Gong and Xue Gong figured out the key in an instant. They hesitated to speak, their faces full of shock.
At the critical moment when the young master of the Zhao Kingdom had just succeeded to the throne, asking his older and deposed former crown prince, the purpose was simply obvious!
The most important thing is that this kind of behavior is not in line with Xinlingjun's character and behavior, which shocked the two of them inexplicably.
"Ensuring unity is now the top priority, and all other things must make way for it!"
Lord Xinling didn't explain much, or even defend himself, "I'll take the responsibility for the abuse!"
Just five words, but once again everyone was shocked and shaken.
What people in the world seek is nothing more than fame and fortune.
Although in general perception, chasing fame is much more noble than chasing profit, but after all, there is still something to be desired.
And the biggest difference between fame and fortune is that profit is something that changes all the time. You may have lost everything one time, but you can get it back if you make the right bet the next time.
But the name is different and there is no room for any flaws.
Once there is a stain, all previous efforts will be wasted, and it may be difficult to turn around in the future.
Even if Mr. Xinling did not intend to cultivate fame, after so many years, the reputation of the Fourth Young Master has been resounding both inside and outside the country. This heavy reputation carries huge value that no one can easily abandon.
But Lord Xinling decided to give it up so easily.
The reason was just for Zhao to change his generals before the battle.
Frankly speaking, although this matter affects Hezong, from another perspective, it is also a good retreat.
Up to now, the allied forces have been facing off against the Qin army for a long time. Both sides are exhausted and are just gritting their teeth and persisting.
The incident with Zhao State ended the alliance in a logical manner, which did not harm Lord Xinling's reputation. He could even use this incident to cause trouble later and extract some benefits from Zhao State.
But he refused and chose the most difficult path to take.
And even if Zhao Jia is replaced and Zhao Guo insists on joining forces, will this battle be won?
not necessarily!
Moreover, after the turmoil, the coalition forces will also be damaged.
But if the alliance fails this time, most of the infamy will fall on Lord Xinling himself.
His approach, without leaving any room for himself, can be described as burning the boat.
After thinking about this, the faces of the two diners were full of admiration.
And Zhao Jia was quickly brought to Lord Xinling.
Zhao Jia was also pleasantly surprised to receive the support of Lord Xinling. He had already given up that position, but who would have thought that the younger brother and his mother would make such a big mistake.
He swore in front of Lord Xinling: "If I were the king, I would go all out to support the Lord's plan to conquer Qin together without any hesitation!"
"good."
Lord Xinling nodded, not sure how much he believed it, but an adult King Zhao was always much better than a young child who could only be manipulated by others.
"Zhu Hai."
"I'm here!"
"You take a letter from me and take Prince Jia to the Li Mu military camp and act according to the plan."
