Careerist in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 170 On the eve of attacking Wei
"Brother Lu Wei broke into Lieshan Hall alone, defeated Tian Hu with one move, and defeated Tian Meng with a two-handed sword with thirty moves, and regained the famous sword of general Mo Xie. His strength can be regarded as the best master in my farm~"

In the main hall of Gonggong Hall, Lu Wei was sitting in the main seat, with Zhu Jia and Situ Wanli on both sides below him.

The three foreign-surnamed hall masters gathered together. The initiator of this meeting was no longer the traditional Shennong Hall. Hall Master Lu's status in the foreign-surnamed hall had quietly risen to the top in the past few years.

Correspondingly, although there is still cooperation between the three churches, Shennong Hall and Siyue Hall have become closer together, and Gonggong Hall has been excluded from several new projects.

In addition, Lu Wei has been wandering around these years, and the cooperation meeting between the three halls has almost completely returned to the separate covenant between Shennong Hall and Siyue Hall in the past.

Zhu Jiake also wanted to take on the position of chivalrous leader.

At first, the Zhu family's plan was for him to lead the foreign surnamed Tang to fight against the Tian surnamed Tang.If he could win, as the eldest brother in the surnamed Tang, he would be the undoubted heir to the hero.

Even if they were defeated, Tian Meng, who had joined forces with the three halls and became the leader of the heroes, would not dare to attack them openly.

But now, the alliance of the three surnamed Tangs can basically crush the two Tangs of the Tian family. However, after winning, who among the three Tangs should succeed the hero will become a new point of conflict.

Lu Wei, who is young and strong, seems to be the best successor to the hero from the perspective of the peasant family's righteousness.

But he is only in his early 20s. Once he becomes the hero, the farm family will be in the hands of Lu Wei for at least 50 to 50 years.It is conceivable that within the next four to fifty years, other hall masters will grow old and die without any chance of progress.

The position of the hero is so close, we cannot let it go easily, we must work hard to fight for it again.

After all, even if they fail, they will just become elders in the Tomb of the Six Sages in a few years. Compared with the potential gains, the losses are acceptable.

"Brother Zhu, you're welcome. I just try harder."

Lu Wei's eyes wandered around the two of them, and he kept smiling and did not take the initiative to bring up the reason for inviting them over this time.

After the Zhu family and Situ Wanli communicated blatantly with their eyes, Situ Wanli spoke:

"Brother Lu came back from Songhai City last time and suddenly left in a hurry for Yan State."

Lu Wei's whereabouts at the time were a secret, but later he did start his ravings from the State of Yan, so it is not difficult to conclude that he went to the State of Yan.

"It is said that Xiakui is also in Yan State. I wonder if there is a connection between the two?"

Situ Wanli and the Zhu family had a small meeting before coming to Gonggongtang. They had agreed in advance on their attitude when meeting Lu Wei.

"The Kingdom of Yan has always been the sphere of influence of my Gonggongtang. After I went to Yan, I have been living in Luqiu Pavilion in Jicheng. As for Xiakui."

Lu Wei paused: "There are indeed rumors about Xia Kui's activities in Yan State, and there are also rumors that he cooperates with Yan Wangdan."

"I don't know whether this is true or not."

The meeting with Tian Guang must be kept secret before he becomes the hero.Although Tian Guang handed over the Shennong Order to himself, he, the Zhu family, Zhou Wen, and Tian Hu also had different orders:
Tian Guang entrusted the plans of Chen Sheng and Lord Changping to the Zhu family.

Tian Guang handed over the Luowang plan to Zhou Wen.

His own Maitian clan entrusted Tian Du to secretly communicate with Tian Hu.

Under the seemingly simple surface of the farmhouse, how can the secrets hidden by an organization of 10 people be really simple?

"It turns out that Brother Lu Wei doesn't know either."

The Zhu family touched their beards and took up the topic: "Xia Kui didn't show up at this year's Autumn Harvest Conference, and neither did Lu Wei."

"I thought Xiakui had other plans for me~"

"I should have come back for such a big event as the Autumn Harvest Conference."

Lu Wei shook his head: "It's just that I was in Chu State at that time and wanted to treat Senior Nianduan, a doctor, but I couldn't escape."

Nianduan will serve as the sitting physician in Gonggongtang in the future, and his identity will always be exposed.It doesn't hurt to tell the Zhu family and Situ Wanli now. On the contrary, it can further demonstrate the strength of Gonggongtang.

The joining of the former head of the medical family is self-evidently important to a martial arts sect.

"Doctor Nian Duan!" Zhu's mask turned serious and bright red, and he jumped out of the chair. Situ Wanli also looked surprised. This news was unexpected.

"Yes, the doctor is in Gonggong Hall now."

Summoning the Zhu family and Situ Wanli was just a courtesy. In fact, he and Zhou Wen had already planned the fight for the top knight.

Zhang Er's time of lurking in Siyue Hall was still short. Once he became the general manager of Siyue Hall, Situ Wanli would be useless.

The secret of "Tian Meng" and Tian Mi's collusion was exposed at a critical moment, and both parties were abolished.

Therefore, in the end, the only candidates left to compete for the title of hero were Lu Wei, Zhu Jia, and Tian Hu.

Not to mention that it is impossible for the Zhu family and Tian Hu to join forces, even if they join forces, they will not be the opponents of Hall Master Lu.

In the end, all the other candidates need is a fair competition to eliminate all other candidates unfairly.

The candidate for the role of Heroic Leader has already been decided to be Lu Wei~
The farmer's family is now experiencing more intense internal fighting due to the competition between Hall Master Lu and the Tian family over the famous sword of general Mo Xie. However, under the fragile surface of the farmer's rabble, there is a core of stability that has everything under control.

In the general trend that is about to unify the world, the excessive power of farmers is a bright star.Only by taking the initiative to dim the light can you better protect yourself wisely.

As for the male and female swordsman Mo Xie received, since there are currently no two-handed swordsmen under Lu Wei, we will keep them for now.

The three foreign surnamed hall masters chatted all afternoon, and even enjoyed a dinner together in the evening. However, during this period, when Lu Wei's words almost poured out his intention to compete for the top knight, the atmosphere between them became quite awkward. .

The three halls are drifting apart, and the internal strife among the farmers has entered a new stage.The missing hero Tian Guang continues to be missing.

The day after seeing off the Zhu family and Situ Wanli, Tian Mi actually took the initiative to come to Gonggong Hall to visit Hall Master Lu in person.

Although Tian Mi's value is not high, when another hall master comes to visit, due to the principle of reciprocal status, the hall master Lu Wei still needs to receive him in person.

Tian Mi's reason for coming is very simple: Lu Wei is now the best farmer in the family, and can defeat Tian's tiger brothers by herself. It is only natural that she will come to make a good relationship after judging the situation.

During the conversation, Tian Mi habitually used her methods to deal with men.

In an organization with a serious imbalance in the ratio of men to women, Tian Mi, who is fair-skinned and beautiful, is a pleasant honeypot for more than [-]% of the disciples.

However, Lu Wei has never been used to eating the same jar of honey with others. He only likes his own.

After sending Tian Mi away to avoid harassment, the master of the hall met with a young disciple from Yangui Ridge: Li Zuoche.

16-year-old Li Zuoche is the grandson of Li Mu. He followed his grandfather as a personal guard in the Battle of Qin and Zhao last year at a young age, and later joined the farm with Li Mu.

He came to invite Lu Wei to go to Yangui Ridge to check the results of the new year's military training. Of course, Lu Wei would not refuse this request.
------

The old Zhao land was now reduced to Handan County of Qin State.

The black chariots belonging to the King of Qin solemnly entered Handan City. Their first destination was not the Zhao Palace, but the small courtyard where the King of Qin lived when he was a hostage.

Ying Zheng, dressed in the most solemn costume of the King of Qin, set foot on the Zhao land he had walked in the past. Accompanied by Wang Jian personally, he walked step by step closer to the vague house in his memory.

On both sides of the door, people from Zhao who once bullied King Qin when they were young were kneeling.

These people, old and young, were lying down and shivering.

Ying Zheng's steps were heavy and slow. This was the moment for him to wash away his past humiliation.

Finally arriving in front of the door, he turned around and glanced at the kneeling people with contempt: "Fuck them."

After pronouncing the fate of these people with three words of calm, he pushed the door open and walked into his childhood home.
From the child who only depended on his mother Zhao Ji in the past to the King of Qin who can decide the fate of millions of people with one word, he is extremely sure that he is doing the right thing.

After taking revenge, he is determined to make great achievements that no one has done in thousands of years.

But before that, there was another enemy: Yan Dan, who was still hiding in the Yan Kingdom in the north.
"How are you preparing for Fa Yan?"

"The army will be ready to set off in the next year."

Wang Jian was two steps behind Qin Wangzheng and said in a thick voice: "Neither Dai State nor Liaodong Yan State will help Yan Wang Dan, this battle will be won."

"I heard that Yan Dan built Jicheng into an iron city." Ying Zheng glanced at the layout of the old houses and felt bored in his heart: "How long will it take to clear Yan City?"

"The city can be broken within a year."

Wang Jian gave a calm answer.

"One year?" Ying Zheng frowned slightly: "Then one year!"

He did not forcefully order the Qin army to do whatever it took, but he added a request: "Try to catch as many people alive as possible."

"The minister takes orders."

"After the fall of Zhao State, the only one left who can stand in front of our great Qin cavalry is Chu State."

Ying Zheng added: "Some ministers in the court suggested taking advantage of the momentum of destroying Zhao to directly attack Chu, while others suggested destroying Wei first step by step."

"You are a general, what do you think of these two opinions?"

"Wei is a small country, and destroying Wei can be part of the battle to destroy Chu."

Of course Wang Jian supported destroying Wei first, but he didn't know King Qin's attitude, so he expressed his attitude tactfully.

"Then prepare to destroy Wei."

Qin Wangzheng saw Wang Jian's intention and did not comment on Wang Jian's caution: "Old general, you have worked hard to defeat Zhao. Next, we will destroy Wei. Who do you think can be the main general?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for being considerate of me."

Wang Jian's heart condensed: "If you let the general do anything, the minister is old and confused. The king will surely make great achievements if he makes his own decision."

"However, General Mengwu is prudent in his use of troops, so he may give it some thought."

"Meng Wu?" When Ying Zheng heard the answer, he made no move and just said lightly: "General Wang Ben personally killed the Zhao general Zhao Cong. He was extremely brave. Why did he know it but not recommend it?"

"Although Wang Ben is fierce, he is very impulsive when things happen and is not as calm as General Mengwu, so he is not suitable to be the main general."

Both of them knew that the reason why Wang Jian did not recommend Wang Ben was certainly not a matter of ability, but neither of them said it clearly.

Ying Zheng turned around and stared at the old general who lowered his head and clasped his fists. He made arrangements for the fate of Wei in a low voice in this small hut:

"We, the Qin Dynasty, are in need of strong generals to establish our power. To attack Wei, we must use Wang Ben!"

"Follow your Majesty's orders."
