In Guigu 'zi's courtyard, Zhao Yu and Ge Nia weren't sleepy. Under Zhao Yu's suggestion, they moved a table and took a jar of wine. The two of them sat cross-legged in the courtyard, drinking wine while admiring the moon.
"Childe Yu, please forgive me for asking, but what do you think of this world?”
Zhao Yu was not surprised by Ge Nia's question. After all, the ancients would shift the topic to the world, especially in times of chaos.
"The world? How should he explain this? As the saying goes, a long union will lead to a long separation, and a long separation will lead to a long union. Although the Zhou Dynasty had ruled the world for 791 years, the world had already been in chaos 400 years ago. From the hundreds of countries before, there were only seven countries left. It was time to unify again.”
Zhao Yu's words caused the young Ge Nia to fall into deep thought. He knew that war would eventually break out between the seven kingdoms, but the people would suffer.
"Sigh, the seven kingdoms are fighting each other for their own benefits, and the ones who suffer are the common people.”Ge Nia sighed and realized that Zhao Yu was looking at him strangely.
Young Master, did I say something wrong?" Ge Nia felt uncomfortable under Zhao Yu's gaze.
Zhao Yu retracted his gaze and took a sip of wine. Then, he said half-jokingly,"To be honest, those words just now didn't sound like the words of a strategist. You should go to the scholarly faction or the Mo family."
Sometimes, Zhao Yu really didn't know what Ge Nia was thinking. How many people in the past generations of the School of Political Traversing treated human lives seriously?
Yet, Ge Nia, a compassionate weirdo, had appeared in this generation.
"Childe Yu, you must be joking. Ge Nia is not a pedantic person.”
Zhao Yu agreed with him. Ge Nia was indeed a decisive man when he was young. The title of Sword Saint was not given by Ying Zheng alone, but because of his solid battle achievements.
"You still haven't seen the nature of the world clearly. The world is bustling with activity for profit, and the world is bustling with activity for profit. No matter who is born in this world, they are all for profit. Whether they want to unify the seven kingdoms or become martial arts experts, they are all for profit.”
Zhao Yu's words had a huge impact on Ge Nia, causing him to be unable to speak to himself for a long time.
"Well said. I didn't expect Childe Yu to see through this matter so thoroughly.”Guigu 'zi's voice suddenly sounded. Wei Zhuang, who was in another room, also walked out.
It seemed like the conversation between Zhao Yu and Ge Nia had caused them to quarrel.
However, Guigu 'zi's courtyard was only so big. Zhao Yu and Ge Nia did not deliberately lower their voices, so it was not surprising that they heard them.
"Hehe, I was in the mood and didn't pay attention to my voice.”
Guigu 'zi waved his hand, indicating that he didn't mind.
"Old people don't know much. Besides, it's almost time for them to wake up for their morning classes. If Childe Yu doesn't mind, please answer their questions.”
Guigu 'zi's enthusiasm made Zhao Yu feel at a loss. The contrast between him and Guigu' zi was too great.
However, it was not good to take advantage of others. Since they had generously shown him the Mystic Gate Painting, it was not impossible for him to act as a life mentor to answer the questions of these two young people.
"Since Guigu 'zi thinks highly of this brat, I won't be pretentious. I have something urgent to attend to and will leave at dawn.”
"That's good too. You two have heard it. If you have any questions, just ask them directly.”
Ge Nia looked at Wei Zhuang. He had already asked a question.
Wei Zhuang didn't stand on ceremony and asked directly,""Among the seven kingdoms, who do you think has the most ability to unify the six kingdoms?”
"Qin Country!" Zhao Yu answered without hesitation. No one could change his answer.
"Qin country? Right now, the Qin Country was in a precarious situation. As long as the six countries joined forces to attack the Qin Country, the Qin Country could be destroyed with a snap of the fingers.”
"Your words do make some sense. The Qin country is indeed in a state of internal and external instability. The six countries will naturally not let go of this opportunity. At that time, there will be people connecting everywhere. Once the Qin country has internal strife, the five countries will unite to attack Qin.”
Seeing that Zhao Yu agreed with him, Wei Zhuang, who had always been expressionless, couldn't help but feel proud.
"However, the distance between the six states is too far. From sending letters to the alliance to sending troops, it will take a total of half a year. At this time, the internal strife of the Qin State will have already ended. If the six states attack the internal strife of the Qin State, they will definitely win, but if they attack the united Qin State, they will definitely lose.”
Zhao Yu clearly remembered that after Lao Ai's rebellion was settled, there was indeed an incident where five countries attacked Qin. Unfortunately, they had suffered the loss of time.
By the time the news of Qin's internal strife spread to the other countries, dozens of days had already passed. It took dozens of days for the various countries to contact each other, and it took more than ten days for them to discuss the alliance. Then, it took more than ten days for them to go back and prepare for war.
Half a year had passed, and during this time, Ying Zheng had not only killed Lao Ai, but also gathered all the power of Qin State into his own body, causing the six states to lose their only chance to destroy Qin State.
If it was like the modern era, where the Qin Kingdom rebelled one day, the leaders of the five countries would hold a video conference the next day to determine the time to send troops. They would send troops three days later.
In this way, no matter how powerful Ying Zheng was, he would not be able to resist.
The smile on Wei Zhuang's face disappeared. He did not expect Zhao Yu to turn the tables.
"The allied army of the six states has at least a million soldiers, how can the Qin State resist?”
Zhao Yu laughed and said softly,""Just based on twelve words."
"Which twelve words?"
"Jiujiu Old Qin, we will face the national crisis together.”
Wei Zhuang did not say anything else, while Zhao Yu looked at Guigu 'zi and asked in puzzlement,"
"Senior, why do I feel that this year's Zongheng is very strange? Wei Zhuang is the horizontal one, Ying advocates the horizontal one, and Ge Nie advocates the vertical one. Why do the horizontal ones want to destroy the Qin country every day, and the vertical ones want to protect the Qin country every day?”
The name of the strategist originated from Su Qin and Zhang Yi's strategy of combining vertical and horizontal forces. Combining vertical forces was to resist the Qin country, while combining horizontal forces was to help the Qin country.
Why did the two of them turn against each other this year?
Could it be that these two people had really focused their talent on martial arts and could not even see this clearly?
