Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 521

In Qingji's view, a strong general has the usefulness of a strong general, and an assassin has the usefulness of an assassin.

The two cannot be confused.

Goujian, Meng Ben and Xiong Zidan under Qingji's current account are all courageous, courageous and resourceful.

In Qingji's view, it was not worth using them to assassinate Jinhou Jiwu.

Not to mention whether he can succeed or not, if he dies there, others will definitely recognize that he is a general of the Wu Kingdom.

Xiong Yiliao is different.

Xiong Yiliao has a certain reputation, but his reputation in the Central Plains is not obvious, and he has learned the way of an assassin, so he might be able to escape.

Even if someone recognizes that this is Xiong Yiliao, Qingji can still blatantly deny it.

"Just having warriors may not be enough to kill the Marquis of Jin."

Qing Ji frowned and said, "There are quite a few guards around the Marquis of Jin. I'm just afraid that Xiong Yiliao won't get close to the Marquis of Jin, and he will be shot to death by random arrows."

"This……"

Wu Zixu and Bo Tong on the side also frowned, then fell into deep thought.

It was indeed a problem that he couldn't get close to Jinhou Jiwu's side.

How did King Liao of Wu die?

In the past, Prince Guang (He Lu) took advantage of the emptiness in the state of Wu and conspired with Zhuan Zhu. Under the pretext of hosting a banquet for King Liao of Wu, he presented a dagger hidden in the belly of a fish.

Zhuan Zhu assassinated King Liao of Wu on the spot, but was also killed by his guards.

One for one, all assassin kings will kill you, no loss.

This fulfilled Zhuanzhu's reputation.

However, Zhuan Zhu's method of assassinating King Liao of Wu was very ingenious.

"Your Majesty, I have a plan."

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration appeared in Wu Zixu's mind.

"Oh, please speak."

"Your Majesty, you can invite the Marquis of Jin to go out hunting, let Xiong Yiliao lie in ambush, and when the Marquis of Jin is unprepared, you can kill him in one fell swoop!"

"..."

Qingji was silent for a long time, then asked again: "Can Xiong Yiliao succeed?"

"If you don't succeed, you will become benevolent. Regardless of whether you succeed or not, the king can blame the assassination on Zheng Ren!"

"good!"

Wu Zixu's strategy is vicious enough.

If he really can't succeed, he will blame others and put aside his relationship with Xiong Yiliao.

If so, if there is a mistake in one link, Qingji will be very passive.

"I want to meet Xiong Yiliao. If he is really capable of accomplishing great things, I should give him three days to make full preparations."

"promise!"

Wu Zixu immediately agreed.

Assassin king kills, the most important thing is assassin.

Qingji is suspected of not being used by people, and not suspected of employing people.

As an assassin, what is the most important thing?
Perhaps, bravery is second, and the most important thing is the psychological quality of the assassin.

If there is not a heart strong enough to be able to stay calm in the face of danger, the assassination will not be successful.

Assassinating ordinary people is nothing more than assassinating the king of a country, which is a test of the assassin's psychological quality.

Such as the famous "Jing Ke Assassination of Qin" incident in history.

Jing Ke was dispatched by Prince Dan of Yan to go to Qin State to assassinate King Yingzheng with Yan Dukang Map and Fan Yuqi's head.

When Jing Ke presented the map of Yandukang, he saw it with a dagger, but failed to assassinate the king of Qin, and was killed in defeat.

There is another character among them——Qin Wuyang.

Qin Wuyang is the grandson of Yan Guoxian general Qin Kai, who dared to kill at the age of thirteen, is he courageous enough?
It seemed big enough, but when Qin Wuyang saw Qin Wang Yingzheng, he was scared and overwhelmed.

Such a person has a superficial appearance and does not have a strong heart.

Qingji was also worried that Xiong Yiliao was someone like Qin Wuyang.

Therefore, it is necessary for him to test Xiong Yiliao's courage and bravery.

If Xiong Yiliao had that ability, Qingji could let him assassinate Jinhou Jiwu.

If Xiong Yiliao is not courageous enough, Qingji can only hire another talented person.

……

Night falls.

On the side of Luoyi King's City, in the middle of the Marquis of Jin's Xingyuan, Ji Wu was sitting opposite his two Shangqing Shiyang and Zhao Yang.

Just as Qingji and the others expected, the people of Jin also knew that with the death of Zheng Boji, the state of Zheng would undergo major changes.

The choice before them was to unite with Wu to destroy Zheng, or to force Zheng to surrender and drive Wu out of the Central Plains.

The thinking of the kings and ministers of Jin is exactly the same as that of Wu.

The people of Jin can eat this piece of fat in Zheng State all by themselves, so why share it equally with Wu State?
For the increasingly powerful state of Wu, the monarchs and ministers of the state of Jin are also very jealous.

How could they tolerate Wu Guozhen's meddling in the Central Plains and extending his claws to Zheng Guo?

"My lord, I have something to say, don't know if I should say it or not?"

Zhao Yang bowed to Ji Wu and said.

"please say."

"In the year when Marquis Wu was established, he was a great talent and aggression. He was the great enemy of our state of Jin."

Zhao Yang frowned and said, "Since Marquis Wu came to the throne, he has worked hard to rule the country. Wu's soldiers have enough food and supplies, and wars for external expansion have become more and more frequent."

"Destroyed Yue and Gumi in the south, conquered the land in the south of Lingnan, swallowed Han in the north, seized the land of Huaisi, made Teng, Xue, Zhu and other five eastern countries surrender, expanded the land of Chu in the west, and almost wiped out the huge Chu country. .”

"In just over ten years, through Qingji's hands, the Wu Kingdom has made the Eleven Kingdoms profess their vassals and pay tribute, and become the overlord. It has the national power to rival the Jin Kingdom."

"There is such a hero in the state of Wu, it is really a big problem for my state of Jin!"

After a pause, Zhao Yang said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, all the princes of the Marquis of Wu are young, and it is doubtful that the master is young."

"If Marquis Wu dies in Luoyi, there will be chaos in the country of Wu. Even if there is no chaos, the country will probably decline and lose its national strength to compete with our Jin country."

Hearing this, Jinhou Jiwu said dumbfounded: "Zhao Shangqing, you... are you asking the widow to send assassins to assassinate Wuhou?"

"Exactly."

Zhao Yang squinted his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Jin."

"If the Marquis of Wu dies, the power of Wu will withdraw from the Central Plains, and there will be no power to compete with Jin."

Ji Wu nodded slightly and said, "Zhao Shangqing, everyone knows what you said."

"However, I have heard that Marquis Wu's bravery is the most powerful in the world. In addition, there are countless elite soldiers and generals around him. If this assassin can't get close to him, he will already be cut to pieces."

Hearing this, Zhao Yang chuckled lightly and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. There is one subject who can gain the trust of Marquis Wu, and then get close to him and kill him."

"Who is it?"

"Dedicated, to leave."

"This……"

Jin Hou Ji Wu said in surprise: "Zhao Shangqing, aren't these two people?"

Did Zhao Yang think that Ji Wu didn't know how to count?
Zhao Yang shook his head and said, "A dead person is an assassin?"

"what for?"

"Zhuanyi is the son of Zhuanzhu who assassinated Wu Ziliao in the past, and he hates Qingji."

Zhao Yang said indifferently: "As for leaving, I don't need to talk about it. He is capricious, and he should be the one whom Marquis Wu hates the most. He hates that he can't get rid of him and be quick."

"If you are determined to get away from this head and win the trust of Marquis Wu, why not kill him when Marquis Wu is unprepared? One hit will kill him?"

"wonderful!"

Ji Wu applauded and said, "Wonderful! Zhao Shangqing, I don't know where to leave, what is the determination?"

"Just outside."

"please come in!"

"promise!"
