Chapter 225 Good guy! (Please subscribe for monthly reward tickets!)
Wang Jian just wanted to run away quickly.He hoped that there would be no more wars in the world, otherwise the glory of the Pinyang Wang family would be destroyed in the hands of this boy.

Thinking of the war, Wang Jian suddenly looked into the distance.

Surrounded by rolling mountains, the long road extends southward, but the end of the road is vast.

His gray beard hangs down, and his forehead is covered with ditches like the fields. He is old and his eyelids have drooped down, but his eyes are still sharp.

"Grandpa, you also miss Xianyang, right?"

Wang Jian did not speak, but walked barefoot into the mud.

Wang Li looked at his grandfather like this and felt very puzzled.

Isn't it just that the king said a few words to his grandfather? What a big deal. The king is the king and you are the minister.Because of this, my grandfather ran back to his hometown Pinyang, planning to never go out again.

Wang Li picked up his sword and returned to the courtyard to practice martial arts with flying sand and rocks.

At this time, a tall and majestic figure appeared at the door.

"Father - you are back." Wang Li's voice suddenly became weak when he saw the person coming.

Wang Ben responded lightly. Seeing Wang Li practicing his sword in luxurious dark clothes, Wang Ben knew that this boy was spoiled rotten by the ladies in his family.

"Isn't this the proper attire for practicing martial arts?" Wang Ben looked sternly. "Swagger!"

Wang Li immediately lowered his head. "Father, I know I was wrong."

Wang Li's mother rushed out and held Wang Li's hand to comfort him. Then she loudly said to Wang Ben, "The general has returned in triumph. It is a happy event. Why scold Ali for such a trivial matter."

"My father and I have been fighting in the field for many years. Over time, we have neglected to discipline him. He was left in the care of you women. Now that he has grown up, he does not have the courage that a man should have."

Wang Li lowered his head and endured these words quietly.

Sooner or later, I will prove it to you.

Wang Ben looked at Wang Li's behavior and couldn't help but get angry again, "Do you think he looks like a gentleman? A man can correct his mistakes. What does this mean for him? He is resenting me. mean."

"It's all because you never praised him, only lectured him."

"A man is useless if he doesn't fight. Just because you stopped him, otherwise I would have punished him long ago."

A large group of servants were present in the mansion, and Wang Li felt that his father had made him lose face by doing this.

He is a young prince.

In front of Wang Ben, Wang Li was not to be outdone, he threw his sword and left without looking back.

Why do other people's fathers also fight for years, but they are very harmonious with their sons as soon as they return home? Only my own family is not like this.

He had always had trouble telling his brothers about it, and his father only scolded him every time he came back.

Wang Ben was very angry, "This traitor!"

"General, for the sake of my humble concubine, please don't embarrass him again."

"He's just spoiled by you."

Wang Ben's wife kept touching Wang Ben's chest with her hands, and then persuaded Wang Ben to calm down his anger.When he got back indoors, he immediately asked someone to invite Wang Jian back.Wang Ben looked at his father, but after half a year of separation, his father had become so old.In the spring, most of my father's hair was black, but now most of his hair is white.

Wang Ben couldn't help but ask, "Does it mean that the king really doesn't need his father anymore?"

"Destroy the Chu State, and the world will belong to the king alone. It is indeed time for me to return to old age." Wang Jian sat on his seat, feeling empty behind him.

The door was closed.

There were only father and son in the room, but Wang Li didn't want to miss the private conversation between his grandfather and his father.His brothers loved nothing more than hearing him tell stories about their grandfather and father.

Wang Ben asked, "My father said that it takes 60 to destroy Chu, so only 60 can destroy Chu. I believe my father. Now the king wants to use the prince's method and attack Chu with 40. Can the prince succeed?" "

"If we win this battle, the world will really be settled." Wang Ben said, but he still didn't want to believe the prince. "It took one year to prepare, and another year to destroy Chu. It sounded like a hypothesis, but the king actually believed it. Now everyone in the court is praising the prince, saying that the prince is a gift from heaven to the world. The gift of man.”

After hearing this, Wang Jian just stroked his beard and said, "If Li Xinruo goes, he will definitely be defeated if he attacks Chu. If the prince goes there, he has a slight chance of winning."

"Is there still a chance of winning?"

"You don't think so highly of the prince?"

"The prince only killed people when he was young, and he went to Xinzheng once when he was older. Marching and fighting don't rely on these. If Chu comes to attack the city, can the prince hold it?"

"The prince has a changeable mind and likes to plan. Although he has no combat experience, he has a great advantage, that is, the prince never reveals himself to the outside world. He can hide it."

"This alone is enough to fight against the Chu people. The battlefield is changing rapidly, and the coaches of both sides have to judge the judgment that the other side will make. Whoever makes the correct judgment in advance will have the upper hand. Can the prince predict the Chu people? I don’t know the movements, but it should be difficult for Chu people to guess the prince’s intentions.”

Wang Ben couldn't believe it, "It would be easy to say if we really win. But after paying such a high price, if we lose, the consequences will be disastrous."

"My father taught me that I should consider all issues and things carefully before going to war. Even if I have been fighting for decades, I still dare not boast. Every time before sending troops, I have to remind myself again and again to be calm and not to underestimate the enemy."

"The State of Chu is different from the State of Zhao. They are a powerful country. Although they have suffered defeats before, I found that they just abandoned the city and the people. In fact, the State of Chu has always maintained a large number of main troops."

"If Qin and Chu want to fight, this battle will not be easier than attacking Zhao." When Wang Jian and his son had just become generals, they encountered generals like Li Mu. If Yao Jia's alienation plan hadn't been successful, they would have defeated Zhao. , the price paid will be very high.

"Why are you worried about this?" Wang Jian couldn't help but ask.

"Hey! Those people in the court who don't understand military affairs are afraid that we will steal their limelight, so they block the palace gate. They talk nonsense and say that Qin is about to destroy Chu. More and more people don't regard Chu as our country. What’s going on is that all civil and military officials in the dynasty underestimated the enemy, and if this continues, there must be negligence.”

"Underestimating the enemy is a taboo for military strategists. Once they face the Chu State with such an idea, the Qin State will inevitably suffer heavy losses in front of the battle."

Wang Jian smiled, "It seems that you have grown a lot over the years. Judging from your tone, the king sent Li Xin to accompany the prince this time."

Wang Ben was calm and said calmly, "Father really had a clever plan. The king really sent Li Xin as his deputy this time to assist the prince. The prince raised troops to guard the border. It would be better if he could defend it. If he couldn't defend it..."

"If we defend it, Chu will be defeated by the prince; if we fail to defend it, Qin will suffer more losses in Chu's war."

Wang Li, who was eavesdropping outside the window, heard the discussion inside and felt excited.

Good guy!
According to his father's wishes, the prince's expedition will most likely suffer a defeat.The whole country underestimated the enemy, but the prince went on an expedition. If he failed and returned, he would become a laughing stock in the world.

Wang Ben continued, "Based on the prince's experience, taking Meng Tian, ​​Li Xin, and Ren Xiao with him, isn't this sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth? Besides, Chu general Xiang Yan saw the prince going on an expedition, so he must have known that Qin was underestimating the enemy. He will definitely make arrangements early when the time comes, and he will definitely lure our Qin State into a pretense, lose a few cities, and then wait for our Qin Army to advance deeply into the hinterland and take the opportunity to counterattack."
