Chapter 8: The Plan of Tired Zhao (3) (VIP)

"Mr. Guo, who is the most opposed?" Zhou Chong spoke slowly.

Guo Kai didn't think about it and said, "It's the generals. They all said that if Qin built the road to the border of Zhao, once this road is used to mobilize the army in the future, the pressure on Zhao will be much greater. Therefore, the generals jointly submitted a letter to ask the king to send envoys to negotiate with Qin and not to build this road. This is not unreasonable. Anyone with discerning eyes can tell that this is the preparation made by Qin to destroy Zhao. The purpose is to facilitate the gathering of troops and allocate military supplies. Lord Zhou, this is the case. It's not that I, Guo Kai, don't want to do things for the Qin Dynasty. I can't help but support myself. I can't argue with the generals alone."

"Mr. Guo, what's the point of you?" Zhou Chong pointed at Guo Kai and criticized him, "You Guo Kai only know that everyone is angry, but have you ever thought about why these generals reported together? What would happen if King Zhao agreed to their proposal?"

Guo Kai disagreed with Zhou Chong's words and said, "My Lord Zhou, I'm sorry, it's best not to repair this road. If it is repaired, it will be beneficial to Zhao State without any harm. I also know that even if Zhao State sends envoys to negotiate with Daqin, Daqin will not allow it, and the road will still need to be repaired."

Zhou Chong shook his head and said, "I came to Handan to build this road, with the purpose of not letting Zhao oppose it anymore. In fact, I want Zhao to continue building this road and build it all the way to Handan."

The road was built to the border of Zhao State, and Zhao State was not at ease. It was impossible to build Handan in any case. In that case, the Qin army would not follow the road and go straight to Handan. This was a matter of shooting itself in the foot. Although Zhao Wangqian was stupid, he could still understand that this was impossible.

Guo Kai said funny: "Mr. Zhou, if I, Guo Kai, hadn't heard you say it in person, it would be hard to believe it."

Zhou Chong pointed at Guo Kai and said, "Everyone in Zhao State can object, but you, Lord Guo, cannot object, nor should you."

"Mr. Zhou, it's not that I don't want to do things for the Qin Dynasty. It's really incredible." Guo Kai hurriedly left it apart.

Zhou Chong began to analyze the pros and cons and said, "I ask you, why do generals report together, not a general? It is reasonable for him to report the memorial, but he signed the joint memorial. Why is this?"

"General Li Mu is unparalleled in wisdom and is the general of Zhao State. It is understandable that he signed the joint memorial." Guo Kai still didn't understand what Zhou Chong meant.

Zhou Chong said rudely: "Guo Kai, I think you are a pig's brain. With your little mind, it is really hard to believe that King Zhao can actually win the trust of King Zhao. How did King Zhao handle the memorials from the generals?"

Guo Kai replied: "The king said that it would be better to send an envoy to negotiate."

"He was putting the generals' mouths and pretending to behave. In fact, he was very afraid of the general's disturbances." Zhou Chong said in one sentence about what King Zhao thought, saying: "If he did nothing, the general's disturbances would be even greater, and he had to do it."

Guo Kai nodded and praised: "Mr. Zhou has made the king's thoughts very well. If Guo Kai doesn't accept it, he will not be able to accept it."

Zhou Chong continued: "This is an excellent opportunity for you to defeat the generals and seize the military power, but you did nothing. Do you think you are wasting opportunities?"

Guo Kai liked to play with power, and when he heard this, his eyes immediately shone in his eyes, he said, "This is indeed an opportunity. If I can defeat the generals and I have military power, then I, Guo Kai, are truly under one person and above ten thousand people. But how can I do it? Please teach me by Lord Zhou."

His mind was alive, and Zhou Chong decided to strengthen his confidence and said, "The reason why these generals signed the joint memorial was not because Li Mu. Li Mu was afraid that it would be difficult to do it by his own strength, so he persuaded the generals to sign. In this way, the generals were under great pressure, but Li Mu had backfired and violated the taboo of being a king. The king of kings is to be able to control everything and be able to rest assured. When the generals walked together and listened to Li Mu's words, King Zhao was worried. What's the difficulty of overthrowing the generals and overthrowing Li Mu?"

Control everything and be content with everything is not just a wish to be king, but also in daily life. That's right, using people often means using clumsiness rather than cleverness. It is often a fool who benefits, while smart people get nothing.

Guo Kai clenched his fists with both hands and said, "Yes, Lord Zhou's insights are so brilliant."

Zhou Chong then analyzed and said, "You know Li Mu's character. He is as evil as a grudge. He will dislike you for a long time. If you can't suppress him this time, his status will be greatly improved with the support of the generals. By then, he will be invincible in the army and there will be civil officials in the army. How do you think he will deal with you?"

"He will kill me, kill my whole family!" Guo Kai was frightened and knelt down for Zhou Chong, saying, "Mr. Zhou save me!"

Zhou Chong helped Guo Kai up and said, "If Li Mu wants to succeed, you will fail. He opposes Qin's road construction, and you will agree with Qin's road construction. This is not enough. You just maintain an invincible situation, and neither you nor him can defeat anyone."

Guo Kai was also a erotic person and immediately asked, "Mr. Zhou, how can we overwhelm Li Mu?"

"Building a road requires Zhao State to build a road, connecting it with Qin State's road, and building it all the way to Handan." Zhou Chong said the purpose of his trip.

Guo Kai was shocked and said, "This is unlikely. Although King Zhao is dark, he doesn't even understand the harm of building a road."

Zhou Chong smiled and said, "Okay, we agree with Zhao's request. If we don't build roads or build Zhao's realm, who do you think of the credit?"

"Li Mu's." Guo Kai said almost word by word.

Zhou Chong brainwashed Guo Kai again and said, "Li Mu's prestige is already very high. If this happens, his prestige will be even higher. It's only a matter of time before you can overwhelm you. By then, you will be unable to protect your wealth."

Guo Kai gritted his teeth and said, "Damn Li Mu! You must practice it."

Zhou Chongli tempted: "Of course you need to practice, it depends on who is practicing? The person who practices has made a lot of contributions."

Guo Kai's eyes emitted light again and said, "This is the matter of road construction, Guo Kai must be my husband."

He is responsible for building roads, not only a matter of credit, but also a matter of money. If Zhao wants to build roads, he must invest a lot of money, and all of this money must be dispatched by him. With his corruption and the way he embezzled, he will not even pack his waist. How can he disagree?

"You have to remember that this is not an ordinary road, but a road of power, and the road to the peak of power." Zhou Chong hinted that Guo Kai can use this to make a big splash and make the credit bigger. If you want to be promoted, you must first make contributions. To make contributions, you must do things. The size of the matter does not matter. What is important is whether you can use these things well and receive the results you need. Guo Kai will not understand this principle.

Guo Kaiming said to Zhou Chong, "Thank you, Lord Zhou, how can you get King Zhao to agree? I believe Lord Zhou is confident."
