I Want To Be Qin II

Li Mu's words left him speechless for a moment. He knew in his heart that Li Mu's worries were not false, but something that would really happen.

As Li Mu's deputy general, Sima Shang never doubted Li Mu's strategic vision.

Every famous general has a unique vision and a clear understanding of the world's situation, and Li Mu is no exception.

Seeing that Sima Shang was no longer speaking, but just lowered his head and remained silent. At this time, Li Mu looked at Pang Yuan, his eyes full of expectation.

Compared with Sima Shang, Li Mu's main target was Pang Yuan, because Pang Yuan was not only a military strategist, but also a strategist, that is, a strategist.

Sensing Li Mu's gaze, Pang Yuan's expression also moved slightly. He had been silent and thinking since Li Mu opened his mouth.

He knew in his heart that this matter had great potential, but it was extremely dangerous. If he succeeded, he might be able to save Zhao State, but if he failed, he might also ruin Zhao State.

Risk and success always go together.

Pang Yuan knew in her heart that it was impossible to remain silent. Li Mu had brought him here just for this reason.

After thinking about this, Pang Nuan, who had been silent all this time, raised his head and glanced at Sima Shang, and finally turned his eyes to Li Mu and said bluntly.

"For many years, I have been traveling among various countries, and I have been committed to uniting and destroying Qin. Although I have never been able to fulfill my wish, I still have a certain understanding of the world structure and the situation of the Zhao Kingdom."

"Let's talk about the general trend of the Central Plains first. At present, all the countries in Shandong are in a strange state. Above the court, the king is unclear, treacherous and treacherous, and famous ministers and wise generals are forced to leave."

"Furthermore, among the clans and royal families of the various countries, there is also a lack of outstanding figures and leaders like the Four Young Masters of the Warring States Period. As a result, in these years, the countries have not sought to make progress, but have only sought to shrink and protect themselves."

"The countries in Shandong were unable to resist the Qin Dynasty and were already showing signs of collapse."

Having said this, Pang Yuan walked to the map and her tone suddenly became more serious: "Jun Wu An, please take a look!"

Seeing Li Mu looking over, Pang Yuan said in a solemn tone: "Our State of Zhao has always served as a barrier for the Shandong countries. Now that South Korea has been destroyed, the last strategic buffer has disappeared."

"At this time, if our country of Zhao can no longer cheer up and the government and the public come together, not only will the country of Zhao be destroyed, but all the countries in Shandong will be like South Korea."

"No longer exists."

Having said this, Pang Yuan bowed deeply to Li Mu, and then said impassionedly: "Wu Anjun is a famous general of Zhao State, and he holds the most powerful frontier army of Zhao State."

"Yuan, I hope that Lord Wu'an will put the world first and the overall situation of Zhao State first, lead the border troops south, cooperate with Lord Chunping and others, and rectify the situation of the court with lightning speed."

"Because this is Zhao Guo's only chance."

Seeing that Li Mu's expression did not change, as if he was not touched by this at all, Pang Yuan was silent for a quarter of an hour, gritted her teeth and said.

"If Mr. Wu An continues to hesitate like this, I am afraid that Zhao will become the next Wei, and Mr. Wu An will become Mr. Xinling of Zhao."

"Wu An Jun, you should learn from the past and serve as a guide for future affairs. Pang Yuan asks Wu An Jun to strengthen our Zhao country!"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the entire shogunate suddenly became solemn, and even Sima Shang's expression became tense at this moment.

He knew what Pang Yuan meant.

Although he is a military general, if he wants to become the commander-in-chief of an army, he must be familiar with the world's major events, not to mention that the Wei State also belongs to the Three Jin Dynasties.

Sima Shang knew something about the affairs of Wei State, not to mention that Lord Xinling was one of the four princes of the Warring States Period and had a great reputation.

Gu Li

Lord Xinling was a prince of the Wei royal family. He led the coalition forces to defeat Qin twice and became the mainstay of the Shandong kingdoms for a time.

In addition, Lord Xinling stole the talisman to save Zhao and his style of raising scholars, so Lord Xinling had great prestige in Wei and even the entire Shandong kingdoms.

At the court of the Wei State at that time, just like the Zhao State now, a treacherous and foolish king came to the court. For a time, the Wei State's court and the public could not bear it. Many forces in the government and the public planned to support Lord Xinling to replace King Wei Anli.

However, Lord Xinling did not dare to take action due to various scruples, so he died of depression. From then on, the power of Wei State plummeted.

This former overlord of the Central Plains has completely withdrawn from the list of powerful countries, and there is no possibility of its resurrection.

Pang Yuan took Lord Xinling as an example. She wanted Li Mu to stop being Lord Xinling and to be more decisive.

Sima Shang knew in his heart that Pang Yuan took Lord Xinling as an example, and what he said was actually very serious.

Glancing at Pang Yuan, Li Mu frowned. He knew in his heart that Pang Yuan wanted him to be a minister.

Xunzi once said in the article "The Way of Ministers" that Lord Xinling is a minister of the country, a treasure of the king, and a minister respected by the wise king.

He believes that when the monarch has made a wrong plan and is about to endanger the country and the country, the only way to save the nation and save the country from the crisis is to admonish, fight, assist, and fuss.

The so-called Fuchen refers to the minister of Fubi.

Fuchen resists the king's orders, steals the king's power, corrects the king's mistakes, stabilizes the country in times of crisis, relieves the king from the humiliation of maladministration, and ultimately benefits the country and the country.

"Mr. Wu An, in extraordinary times, extraordinary things must be resolved with extraordinary means. Today, the Zhao State is already in danger. If this continues, it will be the next Wei State."

"Now that South Korea has been conquered by the Qin State, the Wei State has no time to take care of itself. If..."

When Li Mu was silent, Pang Yuan spoke again. It was obvious that he had also read Xunzi's "The Way of Ministers".

"The foundation of the way of ministers is to follow the way rather than the king. The country and the country come first, and the king comes last."

"Mr. Wu An, please stop being rebellious!"

Li Mu knew clearly that the purpose of Chunping Jun and others was not only to make him a minister, but also to let him depose the king as the commander of the border army and carry out Yiyin's affairs.

The ultimate in courtesy is also the pinnacle of danger.

The atmosphere in the shogunate was a bit dead. Pang Yuan requested, but Li Mu remained silent, and the confrontation between the two sides continued.

Sima Shang knew clearly that this could not continue like this. Li Mu brought Pang Yuan here for discussion, not for mutual support or enmity.

After thinking this, Sima Shang spoke flatly to Pang Yuan and said: "General Pang, if we go south, depose the current king, and kill Guo Kai, the entire court will be in chaos."

"As the saying goes, a snake cannot survive without a head, and a man cannot walk without feet. If it comes to pass, is there anyone among the elders of the Handan clan who can stir up the affairs of the country and prevent the situation from becoming corrupt?"

Sima Shang's words made Li Mu nod and Pang Yuan was slightly startled. He did not expect Sima Shang to be worried about this problem.

Just as he was about to speak, he saw Li Mu's eyes looking over again. His heart moved and he immediately realized that this candidate would most likely affect Li Mu's decision.

Pang Yuan was silent for a while, and then said flatly to Li Mu.

"Shunpei-kun!"
