The road from Africa to Europe

Chapter 753

But would King Qin be willing to listen to a courtier's advice?Maybe the King of Qin would prefer to listen to advice when he first ascended the throne of the king. After a long time, as the king of a country, he has been aloof, and gradually he may not be very happy to hear different voices.

In addition to this reason, the king of Qin at this moment still has some taboos about Bai Qi. There are some inexplicable gaps between the monarch and his ministers. The reason for this is that after the Battle of Changping, Bai Qi and other generals led the Qin army all the way into Zhao.

Along the way, because of the remaining prestige of the Battle of Changping, they directly broke through the obstacles of the Zhao State, and finally surrounded the Zhao State's capital HD, almost destroying the Zhao State.

And the nobles of Zhao State saw that something was wrong. Could it be that Zhao State was defeated by Qin State in one fell swoop?So what should they do?Naturally, they will not be caught without a fight.

In addition to Zhao Guo being very anxious, South Korea, which is next to Zhao Guo, also feels bad, because if Zhao Guo dies, wouldn't South Korea be the next to be destroyed?The nobles of the two countries sent strategists to find Fan Ju, the most important counselor of King Qin.

The lobbyist first bribed Fan Ju with a lot of money, and then praised Bai Qi, saying that if Bai Qi led his troops to destroy Zhao Guo this time, and King Qin proclaimed himself emperor, how much credit would Bai Qi have?

Fan Ju had to think a little more when he heard it, and found that what the other party said was quite correct, how could this work?If this continues, Bai Qi will be on his head, absolutely not.

After thinking about it for a while, he found that Bai Qi might have done more than himself, so he was persuaded by the lobbyist's words.After a pass operation, the King of Qin actually agreed to Zhao Guo's peace agreement. After Zhao Guo ceded the land, Qin Jun received an order to withdraw.

Bai Qi never thought that the king's mind would change when the situation was so good. As a subject, even if he knew that King Qin's orders were bad, he had to take his people away.

After he came back, he found out about Fan Ju's actions after checking, and he was very unhappy. It was because Fan Ju's actions interrupted the rhythm of the attack, and it really fell short.

When Qin Jun was about to conquer HD, he received an order to retreat. Not only did all the previous sacrifices come to naught, but the entire team also had a lot of opinions.As the leading general, Bai Qi was also very angry, but he had to obey King Qin's order.

This made Bai Qi have a lot of opinions on Fan Ju, who was speaking out, from his heart, and he was about to finish the job, but he actually negotiated a peace!All the previous efforts were in vain, so it's no wonder that he can like Fan Ju.

This is the so-called discord between generals and prime ministers. The people in the court will soon know about their affairs. Naturally, the king of Qin will also get the news, and what will he think of Bai Qi after knowing it.

The king of Qin had to think more: Bai Qi had a problem with Fan Ju, who had withdrawn his troops because of the withdrawal, would he have the same problem with the king of Qin who issued the order to withdraw the troops?There are many things that cannot be pondered over, and the more you think about it, the more it feels wrong.

So when King Qin was about to attack Zhao again soon, Bai Qi's reluctance became different in the eyes of the king. He felt that Bai Qi was uncomfortable because of the last withdrawal of troops, and now he was deliberately angry and refused to lead the troops.

It was obvious that he was still unhappy because of the withdrawal of troops not long ago, so why does he have a different view on letting Bai Qi lead the troops to fight Zhao Guo now?Is this deliberately against the king?

Regardless of whether Bai Qi disapproved of the imminent battle between countries out of his heart, or he himself was unwilling to lead troops to the battlefield to fight Zhao Jun, King Qin was very upset and felt that this courtier was very disobedient .

Under such factors, King Qin should have a certain prejudice against Bai Qi in his heart. Even if Bai Qi's intentions are good, he feels that this battle will not feel very good in the future.

First of all, not long after the Qin army had just withdrawn, and the soldiers had just begun to cultivate for a period of time, they were going to fight again?Although the situation has been good not long ago, it took a lot of sacrifices to break into the hinterland of Zhao State, and finally negotiated a peace.

Let's make peace!It’s not long since it’s been, and now I’m coming again, isn’t this a tossing?I'm afraid that the soldiers will also feel that the people above are changing from day to day, which makes them feel a little uncomfortable.

Secondly, Bai Qi knew that the reason why the Qin army was able to invade Zhao was because of the aftermath of the Battle of Changping. Zhao Jun was frightened by Bai Qi, and he did not organize enough resistance wherever he went. Saved a lot of effort.

But as time passed, the Zhao people realized that they were still afraid of the Qin army, but they hated the Qin army even more, because they knew that surrender was useless, so they simply resisted desperately.This intensifies the cost of winning on the battlefield, because Bai Qi thinks it is inappropriate.

But King Qin felt that from the standpoint of the king, he had to hit Zhao Guo hard and weaken the opponent time and time again. As the king of a country, he issued an order, but Bai Qi, a subject, did not agree with it at all, and said that he was sick.

King Qin originally thought that he would definitely win the battle this time, but when he heard Bai Qi's words, he felt as if someone had poured cold water on his head, and he naturally felt very angry.

The very angry King Qin only thought that the other party was disobedient and did not know how to praise him. He didn't want to listen to objections at the beginning, so he naturally didn't care about the kindness of his courtiers.

After being rejected by Bai Qi, the monarch sent another general to lead the Qin army to fight against the Zhao army, but it failed. King Qin was very angry when he knew it. This failure proves that he can't do it?
Once again, Bai Qi was ordered to go to the front line. As a courtier, Bai Qi still didn't plan to go. He said at the beginning that it was not suitable for fighting again. Why did he let him go?He said that he was sick and unable to make the trip, and once again rejected the king's will.

The battle was defeated again and again, Bai Qi kept paying attention to the situation and felt bad. Seeing that the Qin army had killed many soldiers, he complained a few words, which finally reached the ears of King Qin.

The king, who was rejected by Bai Qi twice, was very angry. A large part of this anger came from the unfavorable battle situation, and he failed again and again, which was completely different from the previous victory.

In addition, Fan Ju, who had a gap with Bai Qi, spoke from it, which made King Qin even more annoyed: Is Bai Qi his courtier?Resisting the decree again and again, being a king is farting, which is rubbing the king's face on the ground.

The very unhappy king made the decree for the third time, and he didn't believe that his words were useless. At this time, Bai Qi, who was really sick, felt very bad, and he couldn't go on the road immediately due to physical reasons.

The king of Qin, who suffered repeated defeats, was very unwilling, and felt that he was being manipulated by others.In the end, he forced Bai Qi, who was sick, to go on the road, and Bai Qi naturally knew that he could not refuse the will, and repeatedly rejected the second time, even if he was really sick, he could not refuse the king of Qin's will again
The king of Qin was already out of anger, and he was very angry. Bai Qi had to go to the front line with his illness, but because of his illness, he moved very slowly, which angered the king of Qin.

He discussed with Fan Ju, and felt that Bai Qi: He was dissatisfied with his intentions, and he had more words to say, so he asked the envoy to catch up and give him a sword, and Bai Qi committed suicide after getting the sword.

After Ling Xiao finished speaking, he looked at Huanlang and the others. They had naturally seen this period of history. At that time, they still didn't understand why the king would do this?Forcing Bai Qi to do it, the last generation of generals will die.

They didn't have too many ideas before, but today they were pointed out by Ling Xiao and they felt very uncomfortable after thinking about it carefully. Bai Qi is definitely a capable person.

However, as a capable person, he made a very good suggestion when the king wanted to fight, but instead of being accepted by the king, he was suspected by the king. Even if he was sick, he was forced to go to the battlefield, and even forced commit suicide.

Even though they were capable, they were forced to die. For a while, several people fell silent. Ling Xiao slowly glanced at the immature faces of these children, and asked very bluntly: "Do you still think that as long as there are capable people, Must live well? Do you think you are better than Bai Qi?"

After hearing this, they shook their heads again and again. They looked at each other and knew that they might not be able to do it. They had also studied the art of war, which was taught by Ling Xiao. There was not much in the book of war, and they thought it was an easy thing.

In fact, if you really want to fight a battle, you will know that it is difficult. The battlefield is changeable, and war is never a matter of a few people. It often requires tens of thousands of people to participate. One bad thing is that many people die. It will hurt the family because of the defeat.

If you want to win, you have to consider all aspects, for example, from the personnel who participated in the war, to the military supplies later, and the special camps, these are all things that need to be considered one by one.

At this moment, none of them have really been on the battlefield, so naturally they cannot say that they must be better than Bai Qi. As a generation of famous generals, they still cannot resist the order of the king in the end.Capable people do not live a good life everywhere, there are many conditions restricting them.

Ling Xiao watched a few people realize something, and went on to say: "It's not that people with skills will be reused. Back then, Sun Bin had great skills. After defecting to his senior brother, he was envied by his senior brother. The senior brother secretly attacked him, and Sun Bin was killed. His kneecap was dug out and he became disabled.

Fortunately, Sun Bin saw the reason after being disabled, and hurriedly stayed away from his senior brother. Later, he had a chance to take revenge, but he never had a chance to stand up after being disabled. "

Ling Xiao's words made the children who were in high spirits hang their heads suddenly. Although they had seen these things before, they didn't feel the same way.

But today, Ling Xiao's words moved them deeply, and she finally had some insights, and she said to them: "I asked you to read more books before, and I hope they can learn something from them after reading more history books.

After you have learned it, you can avoid detours and make fewer mistakes. You will find that there is still a chance to correct some mistakes, but there is no chance to correct some mistakes at all, because people are dead. "

There is another important reason why Ling Xiao didn't let Huanlang and the others go out. In the ancient environment, once the so-called boundary between the lord and the minister was established, it was impossible to get rid of it.

Unless the lord is dead or has committed some heinous crimes before he can turn his back on the dark side, otherwise he will be ridiculed by the mainstream society if he changes his lord halfway through.

So when judging whether someone is worth following, don't just look at what the other person says is nice. No matter how good the words are, even if they are hype, they are versatile, but also look at whether the ideas are compatible.

Otherwise, no matter how good the future is, if the ideology of each other is incompatible, life will definitely be very painful.Otherwise, why haven't those two people found a suitable monarch until now?Just because they know very well that they cherish their own feathers.

Huanlang and the others were dumbfounded by Ling Xiao's analysis. From the words of those two people, they thought that they would definitely meet the Ming Lord, and then the monarch and his ministers would win each other.

But Ling Xiao said: There is such a possibility, but it is also possible that we get along well at the beginning, but in the end each has his own ideas, and it is just passable on the surface, and it is more of a good wish for the monarch and his ministers to get along.

In many cases, the reality is crueler than imagined, just like they feel that they are not as good as Bai Qi. As a famous general, he is sure that the battle will be defeated, and he does not want to fight a battle.

The king of Qin had another idea. He insisted on showing the prestige of the state of Qin. In the eyes of the king: that battle must be fought, and it cannot be fought.

If you lose after listening to the king, you have to bear the responsibility. If you don't listen to the king, you will be charged with beheading. This is why Bai Qi knew that he would be defeated, but he had to lead the army on the road.

The king of Qin thought that Bai Qi was avoiding the war, and he knew that he was sick and had to go away quickly. Instead of being considerate, he made him commit suicide, and Bai Qi committed suicide with a long sigh.

Ling Xiao told Huan Lang them with reality: it is not easy to go out and seek fame, it is even more difficult than they imagined, especially the relationship between monarch and minister is difficult to get along with.

For example, the relationship between Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and the champion Hou Huo Qubing was very harmonious, but the reason why the champion Hou was liked by the emperor was because he was still very young, and the emperor needed him to start anew and wanted to check and balance one person.

And Huo Qubing was also very knowledgeable, he didn't want to take too much control of military power, and he was very young when he died, and there was no irreconcilable conflict with the emperor.

Why do you say that?That's because Wei Qing, the uncle of the champion Hou, was also the emperor's confidant back then, but when Wei Qing's contributions became greater and greater, the emperor still took precautions.

Who made Wei Qing the queen's real brother?That is the prince's uncle, and as the prince grew up day by day, some people began to gather around the prince, and the emperor was old, so he naturally began to guard against the prince.

As father and son and monarch and minister, the affection between them has gradually faded away. Although there are people around the prince who want to get the power of the dragon, the emperor is also a little wary.

This situation even caused a gap between Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Wei Qing, a pair of uncles who had a good relationship with each other. In the end, the emperor began to promote new generals in case his brother-in-law would follow the prince to rebel one day.

Later, the matter of Prince Li finally involved Wei Qing. In the eyes of the emperor, Wei Qing became a partner who had to be eliminated from the beginning, and the past together would no longer exist.

Being able to become a monarch will definitely not be a soft-hearted person. These children are too naive, thinking that it is easy for a monarch and his ministers, no!It's not easy.

Before his death, Tang Taizong, a Ming emperor, was very worried about the founding hero Xu Maogong, who was both civil and military. In order to leave a stable country for his son Tang Gaozong, he demoted Xu Maogong.

Waiting for his son Tang Gaozong to pardon Xu Maogong after he came to power, which is the so-called Shien, is a routine, and the emperor and his ministers often meet in battle.

The children all lowered their heads after hearing this, and Ling Xiao continued to analyze that the reality was even sadder than they imagined, and there are some things that need to be seen before talking, so don't stand in line easily.

Ling Xiao told them that when they go back, the children will read the history carefully again, and see the many problems in it clearly, only in this way will they not be calculated by others.

If you have read history, you will find that you often feel a little helpless. The king has a superior side, and you also have a helpless side of the king. The courtiers have the power of the courtiers, and there are also helpless situations.

The official career may be glamorous, but there may be a road full of thorns behind, and Huanlang and the others can learn more about what they can do, so that their hearts that were a little floating will be relieved, and they will find that they have more. something to learn.

This is also the reason why Ling Xiao didn't particularly dislike the two of them even though he knew that those two had plotted against Huanlang and the others, and he didn't intend to teach them a lesson.

If this incident hadn't erupted, Huanlang and the others wouldn't have known how impetuous their situation was, and they would all fly outside, thinking they were locked in a cage, and wanted to go out and have a look.

But this time Ling Xiao's questioning made them understand how many things they didn't know, and even found that they didn't care about what they had read before, and they had studied it before, but they didn't take it to heart.

Now it seems that their actions are very funny. This time, the incident made them calm down. There are great benefits after it happened. It is a good start. Let them know their shortcomings, and then they will give it away without resentment. .

But they won't trust them, and it's better to clarify some things early, and it doesn't feel good to think that they will be cheated.

Ling Xiao didn't come out until the two had gone far away. She just took a look and knew that the luck of these two people was not very strong. If Huan Lang followed them on the road, there would be twists and turns.

Why!The two of them didn't know what happened along the way. Speaking of which, there was a lot of right and wrong among these rebels, and it was not easy to get along there.

Ling Xiao really didn't want the children he raised carefully to go to that muddy water, and if they were not good, they would die badly.Most of the people who left the village to serve in the military died, thinking that they could go further, but in fact it was very difficult to live in troubled times.
