Da Qin: Confucianism, Dharma and Taoism - #245 - Chapter 245
Seeing how well Wang Jian can talk, it’s no wonder that Wang Jian became the only four famous generals in the Warring States Period who retired after a successful career.
In terms of military career, Ying Wei is far behind Wang Jian. Although Ying Wei has made outstanding achievements in conquering South Korea this time, compared with Wang Jian’s achievements over the years, it is still not enough to completely convince everyone.
In the past, the Qin State had never had a Taiwei, but if a Taiwei was to be established, Wang Jian should actually be the person closest to this position.
Now that the post of Taiwei has been obtained by Ying Wei, a child who is not old enough to be crowned, Wang Jian is still polite and polite, neither in his emotions nor in his behavior.
In fact, Wang Jian still felt a little jealous when he saw Ying Wei being promoted to Taiwei.
But soon Wang Jian thought of his own life principles and suppressed all his thoughts.
Even if the Wang family could get the post of Taiwei, they would definitely not take it, otherwise Lord Wu’an Bai Qi’s fate would still be before his eyes.
If a powerful group in the military like the Wang family really becomes a Taiwei, then either the current king has lost his mind, or he is preparing to take action against the Wang family.
As long as things like your great achievements shake the Lord have happened throughout the ages, the king will not care whether you are really rebellious or not, and you will definitely resort to thunderous methods.
“Lord Taiwei, what is the purpose of the king’s invitation to Zhangtai Palace to discuss something?”
Ying Wei and Wang Jian walked side by side, heading to Zhangtai Palace.
After the court meeting, Ying Zheng called some military generals to Zhangtai Palace. Seeing that they were all military generals, Wang Jian could actually guess. What is the general purpose of arriving at Yingzheng?
However, rather than guessing by yourself, it is obviously better to ask Ying Wei, the current Taiwei.
Ying Wei did not try to be mysterious and said straightforwardly:”……The king wants to discuss with the generals how to attack the remaining five countries.”
Wang Jian showed an expression that was true. His face was calm, but his heart was slightly excited.
Just like there is a gap between Ying Wei and Wang Jian in military career, there is actually a gap between Wang Jian and people like Bai Qi and Lian Po.
As a military general, it is the time to show his talents by making achievements, so Wang Jian can’t wait for Qin to destroy the five kingdoms again, and it is a good time for him to make achievements among them.
“Previously, the Taiwei asked me to lead troops into Korea, and I also benefited from the great success of destroying Korea. I have not yet thanked the Taiwei.”
Wang Jian and Ying Wei walked forward together and said with compliments.
Wang Jian was talking about Ying Wei’s previous request for Wang Jian to lead a hundred thousand troops into South Korea to stop the army in northern South Korea for himself.
This matter is not difficult for anyone. Qualified generals can do it, and Ying Wei had already surrounded Xinzheng at that time, so he could be said to be giving military honors.
As for why Ying Wei named him by name, Wang Jian also murmured in his heart. Regarding Ying Wei, the Lord of Chang’an, Although the current Taiwei is young, Wang Jian will never underestimate him.
Even Lu Xiangbang has failed in every aspect and has become a marginalized figure.
Wang Jian considers himself to have political ability, but in terms of skill He is definitely not as good as Lu Buwei, so Wang Jian actually doesn’t want to have too much contact with Ying Wei, for fear of being deceived by this person.
As a military general, he really doesn’t want to deal with these people who are evil-minded.
Ying Wei laughed. , said:”……I should be thanking the old general for this. It was the old general who stopped Bai Yifei’s 100,000 troops and allowed me to besiege Xinzheng calmly and capture South Korea.”
“More than a year ago in Yingdu, I was also well taken care of by General Wang Ben, and even transferred away General Wang’s confidants. I was also embarrassed.”
Ying Wei told Wang Jian tactfully that the reason why he chose him by name was to repay Wang Bi’s favor for helping him.
After all, he was using Wang Bi to fight against Lu Buwei, but Wang Bi himself didn’t know anything..
Hearing what Ying Wei said, Wang Jian was relieved. He must have a good relationship with people like Chang’an Jun, but the relationship must not be too good, otherwise it will be detrimental to the Wang family and will only make the king suspicious.
“Haha, Lord Taiwei is talking about that boy Li Xin, right? It is also his blessing that that boy can follow the Taiwei. Wang
Jian laughed, finally understanding what Ying Wei meant.
Ying Wei smiled again and said:”……When Qin conquers the five countries, we will have to rely more on the old generals. I hope the old generals can support Li Xin.”
Wang Jian’s heart moved. Ying Wei’s words seemed to be speaking for Li Xin who followed him, but Wang Jian clearly saw Ying Wei’s true intention. In fact, Ying Wei did not want Li Xin to be promoted too quickly. Otherwise
, Ying Wei would Wei Wei’s ability can fully enable Li Xin to directly command an army without Wang Jian’s so-called support.
Wang Jian thought for a moment and understood what Ying Wei meant. After all, Li Xin is still too young. If the credit is too high, The position was promoted too fast, and in the end this person was no longer useful.
Chang’an Jun’s move was to control Li Xin’s promotion progress, making him more useful to him, and also making Li Xin unable to do without him Chang’an Jun.
Wang Jianshen He took a deep look at Ying Wei and wondered how this young man had grown up. He was young but well versed in the ways of officialdom and was very proficient at playing.
However, when he thought of the books written by Ying Wei, Wang Jian suddenly understood, In fact, what Ying Wei did was not a method for a minister, but a method for the king.
Thinking of this, Wang Jian quickly suppressed his thoughts and couldn’t think too much about the next thing, otherwise it would be too dangerous.
“Lord Taiwei said this, and your subordinates should follow it!”
Wang Jian did not dare to disobey Ying Wei’s hidden order. Besides, this matter was beneficial to him. He was to use him as a veteran general as the real leader to attack the five kingdoms. How could Wang Jian not be inspired?
By Taiwei, or rather The words spoken by Lord Chang’an actually represented the meaning of King Qin.
These matters must have been discussed privately by King Qin and Lord Chang’an.
Not long after, the two came to Zhangtai Palace, and besides them there were other The military attachés were all here, and this private meeting could be regarded as the meeting of the three ministers.
However, one person was missing from the meeting of the three ministers. Wang Jian took a closer look and realized that the missing person was Lu Buwei. This prime minister had been excluded.
It seems that Mr. Xiangbang will not be able to hold the position of Xiangbang for a long time.
Everyone entered Zhangtai Palace and saw Ying Zheng.
“Dear friends, please sit down.”
In this kind of private meeting, it is impossible for the minister to really stand there and say it. Ying Zheng asked people to bring in desks and cushions. After several people thanked them, they all knelt down.

“I asked some of my dear friends to come here just for the purpose of attacking the Five Kingdoms. I want to hear their suggestions.”
“I once discussed with the Taiwei and came up with a basic strategy, which I asked you to discuss and see if there are any omissions in it.”
Ying Zheng doesn’t like to tell lies, so he talked about the discussion content of this meeting right from the beginning.
As a qualified king, Ying Zheng cannot listen to everything Ying Wei says, and Ying Wei will not do anything about it. What dissatisfaction?
Because Ying Wei is the same. No matter how much he trusts a person, he will never trust the other person to do whatever he says. There must be a brainstorming and brainstorming.
Immediately, Ying Zheng discussed with Ying Wei The strategy of bribing the important ministers of various countries and waiting for three to four years before sending out troops was reiterated.
As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, Wang Jian thought deeply and said:”……Your Majesty, I think this method of Lord Taiwei is very good!”
“Although our Qin State has elite soldiers, its soldiers are also limited. If we want to conquer the five countries in one go, we must reduce casualties and maintain our strength.”
“Lord Taiwei, this method is beneficial to Qin and to Qin’s warriors!”(To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Everyone looked at Wang Jian in surprise. They didn’t expect that he would be the first person to support Ying Wei’s idea.
Wang Jian’s face was expressionless, making it difficult to see what he was thinking..
Ying Wei just said that this time he will be the commander-in-chief of the five kingdoms. How can he just come up and destroy it? He must support Lord Chang’an’s method. Besides, it only takes three or four years, and it’s not like Wang Jian can’t wait. In particular, he also felt that what Lord Chang’an said was reasonable. Compared with attacking other countries by force, it is better to destroy the enemy from within and save as much effort as possible.
After all, Qin will definitely start war against all countries at the same time. The troops will also be stretched thin. War is never just about things on the battlefield, but also things outside the battlefield.
The so-called war is just a continuation of politics!
When the generals saw Wang Jian, they agreed to this strategy. This strategy was proposed by the Taiwei. The king also agreed.
Unless there is an absolutely reliable reason at this time, anyone who objects will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the three parties.
Although they are generals, they are not fools. They immediately agreed with each other, and then brainstormed and began to think about the entire strategy Fill in the details with some questions. In one afternoon, everyone discussed a series of combat strategies.
The generals left Zhangtai Palace happily, but Ying Wei felt his head hurt.
He really didn’t like meetings, and he didn’t I like working!
Ying Zheng looked at Ying Wei’s expression in a funny way and said:”……Third brother, why don’t you have dinner with me?”
Ying Wei nodded and said:”……Okay, after finishing the meal, I took Xiao Yan’er back home.”
Ying Zheng then remembered that Ying Wei’s daughter was still in the palace. He shook his head and said:”……I forgot all about it”
“I remembered again that the Queen Mother had been talking about her third brother, and the Third Brother would go and stay with the Queen Mother when he had time.”
Ying Wei muttered to himself, you forget your mother’s words every day. No wonder Zhao Ji doesn’t like you, Brother Zheng!
On the surface, Ying Wei nodded:”……In the next two days, I will go see the Queen Mother”
