Seeing this, Lu Buwei and Wang Wan also cupped their hands and said,""Great insight, Grand Commandant."
"Grand…Grand Commandant, you are wise."
Although Lao Ai was feeling embarrassed, he still had to say something.
At this moment.
Seeing Ying Zheng and the others in such a state of admiration, Wei Liao felt a little ashamed.
Wei Liao actually wanted to say that this was not something he had comprehended, but something he had heard from Ye Yu.
However, Ying Zheng had warned him time and time again to keep Ye Yu's identity a secret!
Therefore, he could only 'reluctantly' admit it first. Later on, when Ye Yu became the emperor's teacher, he would come out and confess everything.
"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty."
Wei Liao first cupped his hands towards Ying Zheng, then returned the salute to Meng Ao and the others,""My fellow colleagues, you've praised me too much. I've gained some insights.”
“……”
Lao Ai could not help but roll his eyes.
Even though Wei Liao's words were very humble, his uncontrollable smugness could not escape the eyes of the people in the hall.
According to Lao Ai's evaluation, Wei Liao was indeed a wonderful man who was 'simple'!
The reason why he was called an interesting person was because of his understanding of the art of war. Even a layman like Lao Ai would be able to get a taste of his words.
Thus, Wei Liao was indeed worthy of being called the successor of the School of Political Traversing.
Meng Ao didn't care about that. He said impatiently,"Grand Commandant, how do we defeat Zhao? Tell me!"
"Old General, don't be anxious."
Wei Liao could not stand Meng Ao's impatience, he paused and said,"Actually, we've already mentioned this before. Li Mu is known as the God of War and is extremely famous. As such, I feel that Great Qin should spend more money to bribe Guo Kai, the King of Zhao's favorite, and use Guo Kai to pull Li Mu down!”
After saying that.
Wei Liao looked at everyone.
Meng Ao was the first to frown. As an old general, he had a feeling of appreciation for the War God Li Mu.
What he wanted was to defeat Li Mu fair and square on the battlefield!
Breaking the legend of the military god!
At the same time, it would show that his Meng family army was invincible, and he, Meng Ao, would definitely leave his name in history!
However!
Meng Ao had to admit that if the plan to sow discord was successful and Li Mu was defeated by the King of Zhao, then it would not be difficult to conquer the State of Zhao.
This way, Great Qin's losses would be minimized.
This plan made Meng Ao feel conflicted.
As for Ying Zheng, he would definitely support the plan of sowing discord, since the seats under his butt were different.
As a general, Meng Ao only needed to think about how to win the battle.
However, Ying Zheng had too many things to consider. Hundreds of thousands of people had to be fed by horses, and the amount of grain consumed in a day was extremely terrifying.
Moreover, if Great Qin were to go head to head with the State of Zhao, the casualties would definitely not be small.
And when he attacked Zhao, there were too many things that troubled him.
In comparison.
The money he had spent to drive a wedge between the King of Zhao's favorite minister, Guo Kai, and the Great Qin Empire was not even worth a mosquito's meat!
As a businessman and the Prime Minister of the Great Qin Dynasty, Lu Buwei's considerations were naturally the same as Ying Zheng's.
"Grand Commandant, do you mean that we should increase our efforts to bribe Guo Kai?”
Lu Buwei's question hit the nail on the head.
It was also crucial to increase the time to bribe Guo Kai.
Wei Liao nodded." Of course, the earlier we get in touch with Guo Kai, the better. Otherwise, when the war starts, he might raise the price and demand an exorbitant price."”
Right Prime Minister Wang Wan said,"No matter how big his mouth is, when Zhao City falls, he will return it with interest!"”
Since Wang Wan said this, then he would definitely support the plan to sow discord between Zhao.
Wang Wan represented the nobles of Guanzhong. Since the Great Qin Empire started in Guanzhong, the nobles of Guanzhong were the most loyal of the old Qin people. This faction held a lot of weight in the imperial court.
Suddenly!
" No," Lao Ai said in a shrill voice," the construction of Yong City for the Empress Dowager is an important matter of the country. Everything must be delayed because of this!"”
Lao Ai's reaction was very quick. In just a moment, he had thought of bribing Guo Kai, which might cause the construction of Yong City to be put on hold.
Wei Liao was displeased. What could be more important than attacking Zhao?？
"Marquis Changxin, conquering the State of Zhao has already taken the blood and sweat of many generations of Great Qin. How many men have been defeated? Although the Empress Dowager's construction of Yong City was a big deal, it was not as big as attacking Zhao!”
Before he finished speaking.
"Marshal, you're overstepping your boundaries!" Lu Buwei suddenly reminded him.”
