Since the ancestors of Qin conquered the barbarians, the Qin people have never been afraid of war. So what if the five countries are united? There are nearly one million Qin lions, what is there to fear? So what if the commanders are Li Mu and Xiang Yan? There are many generals in the court of Qin, who are all brave enough to ask for orders to fight! What is there to fear? Qin Prince

Chu is a bit cowardly, but it is related to the dignity of the country, especially his son Cheng Jiao, who was sent as an envoy to Han at this critical moment, which turned the original six-country alliance into a five-country alliance. He resolutely stood up, on the one hand, ordered the mobilization of food and supplies across the country to actively prepare for war, and on the other hand, summoned civil and military ministers to discuss the selection of the army leader.

"Everything else has been agreed upon for now.

Seeing that the five nations are approaching Hangu Pass and the declaration of war has been sent to Xianyang, it is time to discuss the selection of the commander-in-chief.

"Prince Chu of Qin is in a bad mood, with dark circles under his eyes.

He has not slept for several nights.

He half leans on the throne and looks around.

With his shrewd eyes, he stares out Lord Yangquan from behind Lu Buwei.

"Xiong Gao, this time the five nations are attacking Qin together.

Not only is Xiang Yan the commander-in-chief, but the vanguard troops are all Chu troops.

How do you explain it!

?"

The words of Prince Chu of Qin were spoken with great majesty, his eyes wide open, like a giant dragon waking up and suddenly getting angry. The momentum was so strong that the ministers dared not look directly at him. Lu Buwei was even more surprised. Was this still the cowardly hostage Yiren?

Hangu Pass was the natural barrier of Qin. Once the pass was breached, Xianyang would be defenseless. But strangely, until the day before the five countries' troops arrived at Hangu Pass, Xianyang did not receive any news. Who would believe that no one was hiding something?

Xiong Gao was also suffering. He, the master of Luowang, The appointment cannot be made, and the small shrimps who can be appointed are not qualified to access internal information. The reason why the five countries jointly attacked Hangu Pass so smoothly was actually arranged by the ancestor of Huayang Palace.

There are thirty-six strategies in the army, what is the seventeenth strategy? - Killing with a borrowed knife, the knife borrowed is naturally the knife of the five countries, and the one killed is naturally Lu Buwei, the"merchant".

Xiong Gao, who had no words to say, had to step out and take the blame for dereliction of duty on himself:"I am terrified and deserve to die. I ask for your permission to lead the troops to Hangu Pass.……"

Before he finished speaking, an official stepped out of the procession and objected,"Absolutely not. Lord Yangquan is a royal relative, a relative of the king, and has never led a soldier. It is not the time for him to fight to the death."

Bai Xiaosheng was slightly startled. Because of the special order of the King of Qin, he also had a guest official in the court. Hearing these impolite and even euphemistic words with contempt, he couldn't help but wonder, who is this person?

Looking carefully, he saw that the man was about forty years old, with long eyebrows and bright eyes. Looking at his official uniform, he was just a senior official, not as tall as Xiong Gao.

This made Bai Xiaosheng even more curious. After looking for a while, Bai Xiaosheng suddenly remembered a person - the national commander Wei Liaozi. The national commander was in charge of military affairs and commanded military officers, second only to the three officials. No wonder this person spoke so toughly.

Xiong Gao was unwilling to go to war in the first place, so he took advantage of the situation and said,"I am ashamed that I cannot share the worries of the king." He paused and continued,"The military situation is urgent now, and the five countries have united to support the King of Zhou. It is absolutely extraordinary. My Great Qin must send an important minister to lead the army, just like the king personally leading the army to conquer the enemy with force." The

King of Zhou... Eastern Zhou, when he mentioned it, everyone remembered this"country of the Son of Heaven" that was almost forgotten by the world. Today's Zhou royal family is also miserable, with only Luoyang as their residence. Although they have the title of the Son of Heaven, they no longer have the ability to command the world. This coalition of the five countries is just the last glory of the Zhou royal family.

The status of the King of Zhou is there, and it seems that there is only one person in the Qin court who is qualified to go to war on behalf of the king... Prime Minister Lu Buwei. Lu Buwei was a shrewd man, so how could he not see that the other party was plotting to"kill with a borrowed knife", but he was well prepared, so he stepped out slowly and asked for the order:"I am willing to serve the country."

Xiong Gao was slightly surprised, as he did not expect the other party to be so straightforward. He thought to himself that this was a good thing, so that I could take over the state affairs legitimately. He winked at the side, and a subordinate stepped out and said:"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister will go to war on your behalf, and he will surely win the battle. However, the Prime Minister is the head of all officials. If he leaves, I am afraid that the government will be unstable.……"

At this point, how could the ministers in the palace not see that today's game was a game between Yangquan Jun and Lu Buwei. Yangquan Jun took advantage of the situation to force Lu Buwei out of Xianyang, and then took the opportunity to monopolize power and wanted to be another bear prime minister.

The King of Qin frowned, as if he did not expect the current situation, and straightened up. At this time, Bai Xiaosheng stepped out with a smile and said,"Your Majesty, I recommend someone to replace Prime Minister Lu to sit in Xianyang."

The ministers did not expect that someone would step out. I don't know if it was to offend Yangquan Jun or to surrender to Yangquan Jun. Countless eyes were cast on him, only to find that the words he said were actually from Prince Zheng's teacher.

"Sir, who would you recommend?"

"He." Bai Xiaosheng pointed out a person. It was the national commander who had just stepped out to refute Lord Yangquan, Wei Liaozi.

Wei Liaozi remained calm, stepped out again, bowed and asked for orders:"I am also willing to serve the country."

""It's settled!" Prince Chu of Qin waved his hand, and the matter was settled.

Voices shouting that the king was wise were heard everywhere.

Xiong Gao was also overjoyed and shouted that he was wise, but he was so angry in his heart.

Originally, all the plans were perfect, but they were broken by Bai Xiaosheng's three or two sentences.

Although Guo Wei was the head of the military, he could not go with the army when Lu Buwei was in charge this time.

How could an army have two commanders? According to his rank and ability, taking over the government affairs and sitting in Xianyang, there was really nothing to say.

More importantly, Wei Liao was not Yangquan Jun's man.

Seeing the meat flying away, Xiong Gao was so angry!

"Sir, you are really calculating.……"As the ministers shouted, Xiong Gao said coldly in Bai Xiaosheng's ear:
