"General Wang, why do you say that?" Lu Buwei asked expressionlessly. No matter what, General Li was a general who had experienced hundreds of battles. Why did General Wang call him an incompetent kid?”
The old fox Lu Buwei directly pushed the conflict to Wang Jian and Li Xin who was not present.
It didn't matter if Li Xin wasn't here, some words would always reach his ears.
"They couldn't even beat Zhao Kuo. Zhao Kuo was weaker than him, but he couldn't take him down even after three months.”
"This time, my Qin country sent troops, and the consumption of grain and warhorses along the way was not a small number. Only 60 - 70% of them could be used on the battlefield.”
"It's already rare for General Li to be able to use 60 - 70% of his forces to mediate with the enemy for so long.”
Looking at the two ministers arguing in the palace, Ying Zheng showed a hint of displeasure on his face.
"Then what do you think, Prime Minister?"
Ying Zheng asked Lu Buwei first.
But before Lu Buwei could speak, Wang Jian bowed.
"Your Majesty, I implore Your Majesty to recall Li Xin. I will personally lead the army there. In less than a month, I will destroy that bastard Zhao Kuo.”
Lu Buwei glanced at Wang Jian.
"Leading an army? The Qin country doesn't have any more troops for you to lead!”
"Then I won't. I'll take my son Wang Ben with me, and I'll take over Li Xin's troops and rations!”
"General Wang, are you planning to use the remaining soldiers to defeat Zhao Kuo?”
"Not bad!"
"General Wang, do you know how many troops and rations are left at the front line?" Lu Buwei sneered.”
"Less than 50% of the army, and only a month of rations!”
As the Great General of the Qin Country, Wang Jian was definitely well-informed about the current situation of the various battlefronts.
"This is enough!"
Lu Buwei's eyes flickered as he looked at the confident Wang Jian.
"Then what do you think, Prime Minister?"
Ying Zheng asked again.
Wang Jian raised his head and glanced at him, then at Lu Buwei.
He gritted his teeth.
"Since General Wang is so ambitious, why don't Your Majesty comply with him?" Lu Buwei said. It's just that "
"But what?"
Wang Jian glared at him.
"It's not a small matter to transfer General Li Xin back from the front line. Changing generals at the last minute is a taboo in the military.”
Lu Buwei started to set up traps.
Wang Jian naturally also understood the logic within.
Among the current generals of the State of Qin, whether it was in terms of qualifications or battle achievements, if the father and son dared to say that they were second, no one would dare to jump out and say that they were first.
"Then let that fellow be a deputy general and watch how this old man defeats the enemy.”
" No, it's still not appropriate," Lu Buwei shook his head.”
"What should you do?" Wang Jian was a little angry.”
"How about this, General Wang will be the Commander-in-chief, Wang Ben will be the Deputy Commander-in-chief, and General Li will be the supervisor!”
Wang Jian frowned.
Although the supervisor did not have the right to command the soldiers, he could interfere and influence the commander's decisions.
It was to supervise the military affairs of the army.
"Alright, we'll do as you say."
Wang Jian had his own ideas.
The battlefield is my home ground. If you dare to look at me blindly, you'll be finished!
"In that case, let's…"
Halfway through his speech, Ying Zheng glanced behind the curtain out of habit.
However, there was no movement behind the curtain for a long time.
Only the beaded curtains and light muslin swayed slightly. There was no one behind them.
"Then let's do it this way!" he said absent-mindedly.”
The court session went on for a while. When no one else reported, the eunuch's sharp voice sounded again.
"Retreat, all officials send you off."
The civil and military officials left the hall in an orderly manner. Lu Buwei and Wang Jian looked at each other.
Wang Jian's tiger eyes glared and snorted.
As soon as he left the hall, the eunuch chased after him and said respectfully,""Lord Prime Minister, the King requests an audience."
Lu Buwei nodded calmly, not surprised at all.
Following the eunuch to the back hall, the young Ying Zheng was sitting before a table.
He looked a little listless.
The eunuch stopped outside the door and did not enter.
"Zhongfu? Is there any news?"
Seeing Lu Buwei come in, Ying Zheng stood up and asked anxiously.
Lu Buwei looked at the anxious King of Qin and shook his head.""I haven't found out anything yet."
" Useless!" Ying Zheng slammed his palm on the table." Useless! Useless!" Where is the grandmaster protecting the Empress Dowager?"
"Your Majesty, please calm down. The Empress Dowager's disappearance is not a small matter. Since the other party was able to kidnap the Empress Dowager from my Qin country, they must have been prepared.”
Ying Zheng sat down dejectedly." The Grandmaster also disappeared without a sound. Who did it?"”
"How dare you have designs on the Empress Dowager!”
" I'm afraid there are many factors involved," Lu Buwei said with an unchanged expression." We'll only know when we find the Empress Dowager."”
"I'm afraid."
Lu Buwei hesitated.
"What are you afraid of?"
Ying Zheng said anxiously.
