When people were in Qin, they ruled the world

Chapter 82: General or Uncle

Since Lu Buwei insisted on letting Zhang Tang enter the country of Yan thinking that the country of Yan was the prime minister, and then pushed Qin and Yan to attack Zhao together, naturally he could not watch Zhang Tang enter the country of Zhao to die. Therefore, when Lu Buwei forced Zhang Tang to agree to his appointment, he also Pushing another matter, sending envoys to Zhao State to cover Zhang Tang's trip to Yan State.

Under the deliberate guidance of Ying Zheng, this important task finally fell on Gan Luo.

In this way, the Qin State mission headed by Gan Luo left Xianyang and drove to Zhao State.

Puban Dahe Ferry.

Gan Luo, who represented Qin as an envoy to a country at the age of twelve, should have been in high spirits at this time, but facing the magnificent river in front of him, Gan Luo was not at all excited at this time. At this time, he, Worrying about another thing entirely.

Before, because he persuaded Zhang Tang to accept Lu Buwei's appointment, he became famous among the many disciples of Xiangguo's mansion, and then he took over the important task of envoy to Zhao.

Gan Luo always thought that he had obtained all of this by relying on his own talents and learning. However, during the incident when he left Xianyang and walked with Zhang Tang, he discovered some extraordinary things more and more.

Could it be that General Zhang was really persuaded by me?Gan Luo thought to himself.

At this time, he thought of what the king said when he was summoned by the king before he left: Zhang Tang has shown great kindness to him.

At that time, he didn't think that these words had other meanings, but, along with the increase in contact with Zhang Tang along the way, he hesitated.

In other words, he deliberately rejected Lu Xiangguo just for me, in order to make me stand out in front of Lu Xiangguo.Thinking of this, Gan Luo couldn't help but looked at Zhang Tang who was staring at Dahe in a daze beside him,

"General Zhang, I wonder if Luo should call you General Zhang or Uncle Zhang?" Gan Luo said suddenly.

"At my age, if you call me uncle, I'm not taking advantage of you." Zhang Tang said with a bit of astonishment.

"Is that really the case?" Gan Luo muttered to himself.

"What are you talking about?" Zhang Tang became more and more puzzled.

"Uncle and Luo's grandfather knew each other before?" Gan Luo asked Zhang Tang.

"You?" Zhang Tang realized the reason why Gan Luo's attitude towards him had changed.

"Is this really the case? Uncle's rejection of Lu Xiangguo and my persuasion were pre-planned?" Although Gan Luo was asking, he had actually confirmed his guess in his heart.

"That's right, I was once greatly favored by your grandfather Gan Gong." Zhang Tang said.

"Uncle, please forgive Luo's rude behavior at that time." Gan Luo saluted solemnly.

"You are fine, there was no disrespect at that time." Zhang Tang said.

"Uncle, for the rest of the journey, please have a talk in the car." Gan Luo said after thinking for a while.

"Yes." Zhang Tang said.

Among the convoys driving across the river, Gan Luo said to Zhang Tang: "Uncle, the most fundamental purpose of my mission to Zhao State this time is to cover Uncle's ability to pass through Zhao State and enter Yan State, but that is only because Uncle It’s just because of General Zhang, now that he already knows that General Zhang is actually an uncle, how can Luo sit back and watch his uncle enter Yan Kingdom to face the unpredictable situation in the future.”

"Zhao State hates me to the bone. As long as you can safely pass through Zhao State, your mission will be considered complete. As for Yan State, it will be harmless." Zhang Tang said.

"No, the alliance between Qin and Yan will not last long. Yan is too weak to be an ally of Qin, nor qualified to let the king keep the covenant. Once Qin and Yan turn against each other, uncle will It's dangerous, and when the time comes, there will be Zhao Guo watching uncle, the result is unpredictable." Gan Luo said worriedly.

"In today's world, there is nothing foolproof." Zhang Tang said indifferently.

"No, I still need to think of a perfect solution." Gan Luo said.

"There is no one-size-fits-all solution in the world, there are only trade-offs." Zhang Tang said.

"No, in this matter, there must be something we can borrow, uncle, I only know about Qin Yan's alliance. It was Lu Xiangguo's plan for two years before Yan Guo took the initiative to seek an alliance with Qin State, but Is Your Majesty's attitude towards this matter the same as that of Lu Xiangguo?" Gan Luo asked thoughtfully.

"Your Majesty? Your Majesty is proficient in military affairs, and he is more inclined to attack the State of Wei than the State of Zhao." Zhang Tang pondered.

Hearing Gan Luo mention this matter, Zhang Tang carefully recalled the scene when he was summoned by Ying Zheng.

It seems that the king is more interested in watching Qin Yan's alliance, rather than showing any enthusiasm.

"Uncle, do you think that in the King's heart, he doesn't approve of Qin Yan's alliance at all, but he has to admit it under the pressure of Lu Xiangguo?" Gan Luo suddenly thought.

"Maybe, that's really the case." Zhang Tang said uncertainly.

"Uncle, if I break the alliance between Qin and Yan and turn to Zhao, will it be harmful to Qin?" Gan Luo thought.

"You mean?" Zhang Tang seemed to realize something.

"I just ask Uncle, if I do that, will it harm the interests of our country Qin?" Gan Luo asked.

"Not at all, the king and the general are more inclined to attack the Wei country this year and the next two years than the Zhao country. Moreover, taking down the Wei country is more beneficial to our Qin country than attacking the Zhao country. "Zhang Tang said.

"So, if the Qin-Yan alliance breaks up, the interests of our Qin country will not be damaged, and the king will not blame us." Gan Luo said, his face became more calm.

"But where is Lu Xiangguo?" Zhang Tang reminded.

"Yes, the key is in Lu Xiangguo, uncle, tell me, is Lu Xiangguo a smart person?" Gan Luo asked.

"If Lu Xiangguo is not a smart person, then I am afraid that there will be no smart people in Qin State or even the whole world." Zhang Tang said.

"Since Lu Xiangguo is a very smart person, can he not see that Qin should attack Wei instead of Zhao?" Gan Luo asked.

"Yes, why is Lu Xiangguo so keen on attacking Zhao?" Zhang Tang hesitated.

"Since the alliance between Qin and Yan is not in the interests of our country, Qin, then the public will naturally be ruled out. Therefore, Lu Xiangguo's actions can only be said to be selfish." Gan Luo thought.

"Just, selfishness? What kind of selfishness is it?" Gan Luo was puzzled.

"Selfishness? Could it be Hejian County?" Zhang Tang suddenly realized.

"Hejian?" Gan Luo looked at Zhang Tang in surprise, which involved an area he was not familiar with.

······
In front of the Xianyang Palace, Ying Zheng looked at the sunset that was about to disappear at the end of the West Mountain, but his thoughts went to the East.

"Zhang Tang, Gan Luo, I hope you two won't let Gu down." Ying Zheng said to himself.

Hong Lian, who was following Ying Zheng's side, subconsciously twitched her small ears, and then moved towards Ying Zheng's direction without a trace. The weather was a bit cold, but Ying Zheng's body seemed to be very hot.
