I’m The King

Chapter 1282: : Carrying Forward the Past (One Hundred Seventy Two)

Guo Yun left, leaving only Gao Yuan and Cao Tianci in the Xiaoyao Pavilion. Looking at the thoughtful Gao Yuan, Cao Tianci wanted to speak, but he tried to speak several times, but he stubbornly endured it. Looking at Cao Tianci's appearance, Gao Yuan smiled: "Godci, is there anything you don't understand? Just ask if you have any questions, don't hold it in your heart. Between you and me, there should be nothing you can't say, right? "

Cao Tianci nodded, "Master, I just don’t understand why it takes so much trouble? Now, regardless of national strength and military strength, we have an absolute advantage for Qin. If we concentrate our superior forces and spread the country, It’s not a difficult task to destroy Qin with the power of strength, but I see what the master is doing now does not mean aggressively offensive, but is trying to promote the internal strife of Qin. Why is this? Why is it simpler?"

"Simpler?" Gao Yuan laughed hehe, looked at Cao Tianci, and asked gently: "What you said is simpler, is it to send a large army to attack?"

"Yes, that's what I meant. The First Military Region has assembled almost most of our country's elite troops, morale, and weaponry. The Lu Chao on the opposite side is simply incomparable. Why don't you just fight it?" Cao Tianci asked.

"It's easy to fight in the past, but have you ever thought about it. With such a hard fight, how much do we have to pay when we win?" Gao Yuan played with a folding fan and looked at Cao Tianci.

"Well in war, there is always a price to pay." Cao Tianci said disapprovingly.

"Yes, there is always a price to pay, but as the superiors, as the commanders who only discuss how to fight in the war room, do we have to consider how to minimize the casualties?"

"Of course. But it's impossible to have no casualties."

"A gift from God, the life of every Han Chinese is precious. One less person will die, one less person will die. Now it’s not impossible to push the past, but the price I don’t want to pay is something I don’t want to bear. You are also from Those who have experienced it on the front line, after every victory in the battle, we are cheering for the victory. But there are countless families who have lost their sons, husbands, and fathers crying behind them. Have you thought about this again?" Gao Yuan slowly said. .

Cao Tianci was stunned for a long while. Finally shook his head embarrassedly.

"Victory is not only cheers, but also loss." Gao Yuan said with a single word. "Although the State of Qin is in danger, the Hundred-legged Worm is dead but not stiff. If we really face the pressure of our army, if we fight for it, let's not talk about the auxiliary win, the casualties of our army will inevitably be too great for us to bear."

Cao Tianci lowered his head, obviously still a little unconvinced in his heart.

"God, do you remember the battle we encircled and suppressed Li Xin on the grassland?" Gao Yuan stood up, walked to the window, held the window lattice with both hands, and frowned slightly as he watched the lotus leaf swinging in the wind.

"Of course I remember that Li Signal is called the No. 1 Army God in the world. Under your master's strategizing, it won't be defeated anyway." Cao Tianci looked excited.

"I asked if you still remember the scene!" Gao Yuan said angrily: "Maybe you only remember the cheers of victory at that time, but I still remember that when Li Xin was besieged, there were only a thousand soldiers left beside him. At that time, the soldiers sang war hymns, assembled in formation, and charged us."

"But the trapped beast is still fighting, and the dog is jumping off the wall in a hurry." Cao Tianci said disdainfully: "Master, what do you remember this for?"

"Remember what this is doing?" Gao Yuan muttered to himself, "Qin people's spirits still exist! Qin people are under the leadership of King Qin Wulie. At a time of strength, soldiers are facing the world and all countries are not afraid of it, which makes Qin people become extremely high. Even if it is a temporary failure, they will not be discouraged, because they firmly believe that they will be able to win the final victory. This is the accumulation of victories over the past few decades, just like our Han army now. "

"But master, what does this have to do with our attack on Qin? It's just a round of fights from the left to the right, slowly wiping out their spirit." Cao Tianci said.

"You said it is one way, but it goes on like this. Kill a thousand enemies, hurt yourself 800, and the wise can't do it." Gao Yuan shook his head and said, "What I'm doing right now is to make Qin people discouraged and discouraged. Let them be trapped in civil strife and unable to extricate themselves, and let them gradually lose their sense of identity with this country. When this step is achieved, or we only need a very small amount of troops and pay a negligible price, we can achieve the victory we want. "Gao Yuan smiled and said: "This will take longer and requires our patience, but we will get more. First of all, we have minimized the loss and countless families will be preserved. Secondly, the Qin people After losing the identity of this country, after we incorporate him into the territory of the Han Dynasty, we will do more with half the effort to rule and govern them. On the contrary, it will be twice the result with half the effort, as you said. That way, I'm afraid that after we defeated Qin, there will be flames and riots everywhere, right? We have to spend countless efforts to quell them."

Cao Tianci had some insights, "Master wanted to deal with Qi Guo, Wei Guo, right?"

"The reason is the same, but the methods are different." Gao Yuan said: "In the past few years, we have been committed to one thing, which is to destroy the economy of Qin. After several years of unremitting efforts, we finally see the results, the economy of Qin. We have been eroded and destroyed bit by bit. Of course, there are also their own reasons here. This move forced Yingying to use Fan Sui to reform, and this is exactly what we want. The times are different, our Han Guoneng The things that were made were not necessarily made in the state of Qin. Now it seems to be the case, and chaos in the state of Qin has already begun."

Cao Tianci nodded and said, "Yes, with Shu County as the representative, the domestic peasant uprising in Qin has been spreading like a spark. This is why I think the opportunity has arrived."

"It's far from enough." Gao Yuan shook his head and said: "Qin's strength still exists, Lu Chao, Tan Feng, Zhou Yu, Bai Qi, the army in the hands of these generals of the State of Qin is not in chaos, if we attack at this time. , These people will inevitably give up internal fighting and fight against us together. This greatly increases our difficulty. Moreover, the increase in foreign aggression will also stimulate the patriotic plot of the people of Qin. On the contrary, they might do them a favor and let them transfer the domestic conflicts to The foreign war is coming up."

"But Master, how can you be sure that Lu Chao will be ill-intentioned?" Cao Tianci said in a puzzled way. "Just relying on him supporting the army now? I secretly smuggle weapons, steel, and gather these strategic materials. Maybe he used these to deal with us. When that happens, we will lift a rock and hit ourselves in the foot."

Gao Yuan laughed loudly: "God, now you have to learn to stand at a higher place to see things, Lu Chao, hehe, I am afraid no one knows him better than me. I am afraid that Yingying will start Fan Sui. At the beginning, Lu Chao began to have strange thoughts. He saw that the Li School of Thought was about to be suppressed in the State of Qin. I was afraid that from then on, he began to arrange it. Speaking of it, Li Ru was well-known. In the world, whether it is a general strategy or a scholarly study, it is a good hand, but if you really want to talk about intrigue, conspiracy and tricks, I am afraid that his disciple is much better than him."

"Master, I don't quite understand." Cao Tianci shook his head.

"Li Ru's death is a signal. As soon as Li Ru died, Yingying restarted Fan Sui and lost the mountain above her head. But at this time, Lu Chao could prevent Fan Sui from restoring, but he didn't do it, but indirectly. Facilitated Fan Sui’s return to the court. At that time, I was thinking, as the new leader of the Li school, is Lu Chao really willing to give in? You know, if Fan Sui succeeds, then Lu Chao will no longer have what it is now. It is conceivable that Fan Sui will suppress Lu Chao and completely disintegrate the Li school of thought after his success."

"I have always doubted this. As Fan Sui took over the government smoothly, several core figures of the Li school were dismissed from the court, and after the Li school, which had ruled Qin for decades, collapsed in an instant, I finally determined that the way I really want to do something."

"What does he want to do?"

"It's very simple. Those Li Schools are not really disintegrating, but they are premeditated withdrawing, deliberately letting Fan Sui divide and win, but in fact, they must have other plans, and this plan, of course, is Lu Chao. As for the core figures in the court, they were just abandoned sons thrown by Lu Chao. Fan Sui thought that he had defeated these people, and reached an agreement with Lu Chao to stabilize Lu Chao, so he thought he could. Let go of his hands and feet and do a lot of work, but he did not know that he just fell into Lu Chao's trap. In the center of Qin, there is indeed no leader of the Li school, but in Qin, it is still Their people hold real power, and Fan Sui's reforms will ultimately be implemented locally. Haven't you seen the final result?"

"Smoke everywhere!"

"Yes, Lu Chao's first step has been reached. Although Fan Sui's reform has only been carried out for less than a year, the result of failure is doomed. Either one or two years, Qin will inevitably be in chaos. At that time , Is Lu Chao’s opportunity."

"He wants to usurp King Qin's position?" Cao Tianci widened his eyes and asked in an incredible way.

"Who knows~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Maybe he wants to be below one person, above 10,000 people, and re-establish the unshakable position of the Li School of thought above the court, maybe just as you said, himself Become King Qin."

"This, isn't it possible?" Cao Tianci shook his head in disbelief.

Gao Yuan laughed, "It sounds impossible, but now it seems to me that only the new army of Bai Qi and the 30,000 Xuanyiwei from Xianyang are standing in front of Lu Chao. Qin Ting's reforms have already allowed The place is angry and angry. Whether it is the local tycoon or the common people, they feel that they have been injured in this reform, and the prestige of King Qin has been reduced to the lowest. At this time, Lu Chao, if he planned well, used the slogan of turning chaos and clearing the side. It’s not without hope of success."

"He has always wanted to stop with me. He has always thought that he is better than me. What I can do, he must think he can't do it himself?"

Gao Yuan suddenly laughed, "So, I'll help this big brother."

"Push the flames!" Cao Tianci's eyes lit up: "The day Lu Chao succeeded is when we attacked Qin in a big way."

"The answer is correct, but there is no prize!" (To be continued.)
