I’m The King Chapter 1215: : Carrying forward the past and ushering in the future (105) Appeasement and provocation

The snow was dripping with blood, dozens of masked assassin corpses were lined up on one side of the road, and the crossbows and other things ready to be used for assassination were gathered into a pile, it looked so miserable In the scene, Fan Sui's face changed slightly, "It seems that they really don't want me to return to Xianyang, they even did such a taboo thing."

Fan Sui refers to the possession of things like crossbows, knives and guns, which are not prohibited, but such weapons as crossbows, which are more difficult to guard against than bows and arrows, have also been quietly brought out, showing that those people want to The determination to kill oneself.

"Have you found out the origins of these people?" Zhuo Buqun looked at one of his subordinates and asked.

"Returning to the general, these people do not belong to the army or any yamen. They look like they were raised by some people? Pigs? Pigs? Find something valuable that can prove their identity." After a pause, he added: "These people don't seem to be paying attention, but they are actually hiding very well. We didn't find them before, and they are actually hiding underground. It was only later that someone actually crawled out from the hiding place, so we could see the clue."

Zhuo Buqun nodded, "Since the action has been exposed, there may be endless assassinations in the future. You must not relax, maybe this is just the first wave."

"Understood, General."

"Go!" Zhuo Buqun waved his hand, and a group of Black Ice Platform members disappeared in front of them like ghosts.

Fan Sui's team continued to start, but Fan Sui became a little silent. Zhuo Buqun thought that the **** scene had irritated the literati-born Shoufu, and comforted him: "Master Shoufu, I'm afraid the front is still not smooth. If this happens again, you don't have to get out of the car to check it out. In fact, the person who did it , you don’t need to check, you can guess who they are.”

Fan Sui shook his head. "You said, did General Lu make a move?"

Zhuo Buqun said with a smile: "It's unlikely, if General Lu sent people, we might not be able to find and kill them so easily, you know, General Lu's military discipline has always been strict, It is impossible for his subordinates to make such a mistake."

"I hope he didn't get involved, Hangu Pass still needs him to guard it!"

Zhuo Buqun was quite surprised and said: "Master Shoufu, once everyone is gone, if those people want to find another big banner, they will probably be General Lu, and what the king is worried about is exactly this matter , what you want to do, the biggest obstacle is probably from General Lu, why do you still admire General Lu so much?"

"People like Lu Chao and Cui Yuan are still different." Fan Sui smiled and said, "People like Cui Yuan are all big men in our Qin country. They are the biggest under the current policy. Naturally unwilling to change, they don't care about the rise and fall of the country. To put it bluntly, even if our Great Qin Dynasty perishes. They will still be able to live comfortably when they lie down in front of their new masters, so this is their desperate effort. The reason for wanting to kill me, Lu Chao. This person doesn’t value wealth very much, otherwise, with his position and ability, he would have become the biggest rich man in Daqin over the years. Don’t forget, he His father-in-law is the number one wealthy family in the original Han, but it seems that Lu Chao is very strict with himself, and his mind is still focused on the prosperity of Daqin. As long as he still has this in mind, we will have a basis for cooperation. If If Lu Chao did not participate in their assassination of me this time, I would like to have a good talk with him, if we can reach an agreement with him, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."

Zhuo Buqun shook his head: "I'm afraid it will be difficult if we don't agree with each other."

"Always try."

"Fan Shoufu, you said earlier that if your reforms cause severe turmoil in the country and the Han army takes the opportunity to attack, how should our Great Qin deal with it?" Zhuo Buqun thought for a while, and finally asked.

"I'm afraid it's not an if, but a certainty." Fan Sui said, "They won't let this opportunity go."

Zhuo Buqun's expression became a little nervous: "When the time comes, there will be internal and external troubles, what will Daqin do? I'm afraid I will end up with nothing."

"That's why I want to cooperate with General Lu." Fan Sui said: "Internal troubles cannot be eliminated, and foreign wars are hard to win. Therefore, in the next few years, our focus will be on domestic affairs, and we can only take a defensive position on foreign affairs. , and even take some things that in your opinion are degrading to the state, such as admitting defeat to Han, paying tribute and proclaiming minister.”

"How is this possible?" Zhuo Buqun suddenly changed his color.

"There's nothing wrong with it. A little intolerance can lead to big schemes. Even if Gao Yuan wants me to endure the humiliation of my crotch, I will grit my teeth and suffer. I can bear it. Zhuo Buqun, you have forgotten how the great kings of the past dynasties endured humiliation and came to today step by step when our Daqin was just a small country in the west. The foundation has been solidified step by step, and the ability to reach the sky step by step, now the king wants to reproduce the glory of the previous king, how can he not learn the perseverance of the ancestors of the past generations?"

"It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it's hard to go from extravagance to frugality!" Zhuo Buqun sighed: "Don't say it's a king, even I find it unbearable."

"This is our responsibility as courtiers." Fan Sui lowered his eyelids and said. "There is a saying in the country, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi!"

Listening to Fan Sui's words, Zhuo Bujun bowed his head sadly. It is really unacceptable for the once extremely proud Qin people to bow their heads to the Han people. If someone chooses, Zhuo Buqun is willing Go to the battlefield and fight with them to the death.

The strategy of Fan Sui, who is about to return to the court to take power, is to follow the light of the past. No matter how provocative the Han State is, Qin State can only honestly stay low until the domestic reform is completed. Only after the initial recovery of the economy can the ambition of fighting for world hegemony be regained. Now, the best way is to constantly provoke the relationship between Han and Chu, and lead the Han people's goal to Chu.

As for how to stir up disputes between Han and Chu, he and Tan Feng had repeatedly discussed the matter when they were in the Yingchuan state. If some troubles are created on the border of Chu, those parliaments in various places will fry the pot. Don’t underestimate the parliament, which seems to have little power, but they control public opinion and public opinion. The government cannot wait to show it. This thing was made by Gao Yuan himself, and it would be a great pleasure to use it to make Gao Yuan suffer.

Looking at Zhuo Buqun, this kind of thing will have to be done by Heibingtai in the future, they are good at doing such things.

When Fan Sui was thinking about appeasement with Han, at Hangu Pass, Lu Chao's tens of thousands of troops were divided into several groups and were rushing towards Jinyang. The war was imminent.

Gou Xin is Gou Yi's younger brother. His older brother is a general of the Qin Army. Gou Xin is the youngest in the family. He is only in his early twenties this year, but he is also a general in the Qin Army's cavalry. Originally, he didn’t need him to lead the scouts to scout the road, but his brother’s life and death were unknown, so he was so anxious that he wished he could rush to Jinyang County immediately. After the army was dispatched, he took the initiative to invite Ying to bring a hundred Several scouts scouted the way for the army.

Scouts are a very risky job. They are the elites in the army, the strongest part of an army, but they are also the part with the highest casualties, because they often encounter the same Opponents who are scouts sometimes step into enemy traps instead of large troops.

But now Gou Xin doesn't think about it at all. As a young and vigorous man, what he thinks about now is to avenge his brother. There are many rumors in the army that his brother Gou Yi must have been captured. Yiyou is both happy and sad. The happy thing is that his brother may still be alive. The sad thing is that being a prisoner is not a glorious thing. Maybe deep down in his heart, he would rather his brother die in battle, and then he will avenge his brother , to chop off the enemy's head to pay homage to his brother's heroic spirit.

"General Gou, look!" A scout yelled suddenly. Gou Xin, who was lowering his head in meditation, looked up and saw a group of cavalry from the Han army on the snow field about two miles away from them. Looking at them, a rough look shows that there are about twenty riders.

"Scout of the Han Army, come on, do them!" Gou Xin didn't even think about it, clamped his legs, his horse neighed, and galloped forward. The saber at his waist.

As elites in the army, these scouts are good at wielding sabers and running on horses.

The cavalry of the Han army on the opposite side did not love to fight~IndoMTL.com~ Seeing the Qin cavalry several times their size rushing towards them, they pulled their horses and fled without hesitation.

"A bunch of cowardly cowards." Gou Xin chased after him, his murderous intentions were strong at the moment, and he was focused on avenging his brother, even if it was to kill a Han person.

The two sides chased and fled, and went out for dozens of miles in an instant. Looking at the situation ahead, Gou Xin was shocked. The dozens of Han cavalry they were chasing had stopped, but before them Not far behind them, a large camp of the Han army suddenly appeared in front of them. Right now, the drums were rumbling, the gate was opened wide, and hundreds of cavalry rushed out like the wind. The scouts of the Han army turned against the guests at this moment, yelling and rushing towards them.

"Retreat!" Gou Xin gritted his teeth and said fiercely, Feng Shui took turns, and now it was his turn to run for his life.

However, it seemed that the other party had no intention of pursuing them, and drove them for a while before withdrawing their troops and returning to the camp.

Getting rid of the opponent, Gou Xin took out a map from his body and marked the location and approximate size of this army. Then he took his scouts and ran in another direction. After all, his main task is to ascertain the enemy's situation, not to kill the enemy. (to be continued...)
