Chapter 546 Hero

Yanwang Palace.

Lord Yanchun died, rumors spread, and the capital of Yan was in chaos.

When the news came that the Yan envoy was attacking Qin, the Qin army had already set off.

Li Xin led the vanguard army in front, and Wang Jian led the army in the rear, marching toward the Yan Kingdom in a mighty manner.

At this time, Yan State was in chaos.

There were many ministers in the Yan State who hoped to join the Qin State, because in this way, they could not only retain their power but also avoid the use of weapons.

But now, everything has changed.

All the Yan officials could feel Qin Ting's anger this time. The elite Qin army who had just returned from Zhao to Guanzhong came towards them to kill them before they could recover.

"What do you think we should do?"

King Yan was sitting on his throne, his voice was hoarse and he covered his head, looking like he had a headache.

In fact, all the Yan officials have their own thoughts.

Yan Chen, who originally wanted to surrender to Qin, wanted to hand over Yan Dan to calm Qin's anger. However, such words cannot be said easily.

Yan Dan was outside at this time and joined forces with Dai Wang Jia, holding heavy troops. Furthermore, no one can be sure that if Yan Dan is handed over, will the Qin State stop its troops?

If the Qin army not only refuses to retreat, but takes advantage of the chaos in Yan State to break through the Great Wall of Yan State in one fell swoop, then they will become meat to be slaughtered.

The other group of people are even more worried. Yan Chunjun has just died and the murderer has not been caught. At this moment, he can say anything.

Everyone more or less understood that Yan Chunjun was the key bargaining chip used by King Yan to check Yan Dan. At this critical moment, if Yan Chunjun dies, who is the biggest beneficiary?

Everyone was cautious and did not dare to mention Yan Dan or anything related to it, for fear of offending King Yan.

Under the influence of this extremely contradictory mood, all the Yan court officials did not say a word. This situation only made King Yan even more angry and roared.

"You guys are talking!"

However, what he got was more and more calm.

At this moment, an old man walked out among the courtiers.

The wise man of Yan, Taifu Ju Wu.

Ju Wu is Yan Dan's teacher and has a high reputation in the Yan Kingdom.

"Your Majesty, the only plan now is to stabilize the situation first and then say anything else."

None of the Yan officials were fools. Since Yan Dan planned this assassination of Qin, he must have had backup plans. It was impossible for him not to consider what the consequences would be if the assassination of Qin failed?

Therefore, he should have been secretly preparing for peace talks with Yan and Qin.

"At this time, Han and Zhao have been destroyed, and the rest of the princes are also trembling in their hearts. A few years ago, the Huns attacked the county, but were defeated by Qin. They lost land and people, fled north in a hurry, and had a lot of grudges in their hearts. While we were preparing our weapons, we should Alliance with Qi and Chu in the south and Xiongnu in the north to resist Qin."

"But what if I can't stop it!"

King Yan's vicissitudes of words came with a hint of exhaustion.

What Ju Wu said were all countermeasures that could only be implemented if the Yan State could block the first wave of Qin's attacks.

Joining forces to resist Qin is not new, but now it is the only countermeasure that Yan can use.

Ju Wu said nothing, because if he couldn't stop it, then there would be no need to say anything else.

"so be it!"

King Yan said, somewhat helplessly.

Ju Wu returned to his mansion and took off his court clothes. He was also very tired in his heart.

What is now in front of Ju Wu is a mess.

However, he never expected the arrival of an uninvited guest.

"Tian Guang!"

Ju Wu looked at the tall and strong man in front of him with a complicated face. In the beginning, it was General Ju who recommended Tian Guang to Yan Dan.

"Master!"

Tian Guang bowed.

"When I recommended you to the prince, I expected you to be helpful to the prince. But now, what you are doing really surprises me. Is it you or the person behind you who is taking advantage of the prince?"

"It's not that we are using His Highness the Crown Prince, but that he is using us. The Crown Prince should know that if this move is successful, it will be of great benefit to the State of Yan."

Compared with its high risks, the plan to assassinate Qin has huge benefits behind it.

"But it failed!"

Ju Wu knew very well the risks he had to take behind this. In his view, the risks behind this plan were too high and too concentrated.

The Yan State is now not only bankrupt in national credibility, but also facing terrible revenge from the Qin State.

"You and the people behind you are not bad at all, and you are still at ease. But what should Yan country do, and what should the prince do?"

Facing Ju Wu's anger, Tian Guang's expression did not change.

"His Royal Highness has already made preparations."

"What do you mean?"

"If the assassination of Qin fails, then Qin will definitely continue to annex the six countries. The fall of Yan will only happen sooner or later. This time, the Yan Dynasty's 100,000-strong army is on the bank of Yishui and on the side of the Great Wall. Best opportunity."

"So what? The weak army of the Yan State can deal with the Hu people in the north, but it has little chance of winning against the Qin army."

"The Qin army is brave and the most elite in Guanzhong are the tiger army of Wang's father and son, Li Xin's flying army, and Meng's cavalry. The rest of the generals, such as Yang, Feng, Xin, She, etc., are not as good as the first three. If we can take this opportunity , wait for work at leisure, and defeat the elite of the Qin army. Then the world will be prosperous."

"In the past, with the strength of Li Mu and the bravery of the frontier army, he still could not stop the Qin army. How much less now?"

"This is why Tian Guang came to see Taifu."

"Zhao abandoned Li Mu and made Handan a county. The Qin army is likely to repeat its old tricks. I hope the Taifu can stabilize the King of Yan and prevent what happened to Zhao from happening again in Yan."

Ju Wu smiled. There was some helplessness in this laughter.

"The King of Yan is not the King of Zhao. It is still useful to keep the prince at this moment. The king will not take action. If His Highness the prince cannot stop the Qin army this time, it will be the time for the king to take action."

Tian Guang was stunned. Obviously, this Taifu of the Yan Kingdom knew the King of Yan better than anyone else.

"It's just that you forgot to mention someone just now." Taifu Yan looked at Tian Guang with sharp eyes, "Zhao Shuang!"

Ju Wu walked step by step, his steps heavy.

"There are Yu Lin Army and Jincheng Cavalry in the distance, and there are 50,000 Taiyuan Army nearby. Luo Sheng is active in the city again. If he comes, can he be stopped?"

Tian Guang hesitated, and Ju Wu continued.

"Zhao Shuang bought a lot of grain beforehand, and he bought three to five million shi from Yan State alone. I'm afraid he has already seen your plan, but he kept it secret. Now that Lord Yanchun is dead, he is in Yan State Powers from all over the country were attacked. I have already heard what Yan Chunjun was doing secretly. Those who sold grain to Zhao Shuang were afraid that they would lose their money. If Qin did not attack the Yan Kingdom, the goods that belonged to the nobles of Yan and Zhao would be lost. Wealth can never be transferred out.”

Ju Wu said a word and sighed leisurely.

"First, I spent huge sums of money to buy grain and obtained millions of stones. Then I attacked the Yan Kingdom and captured everything. I destroyed the heroes of Yan and Zhao in one fell swoop. This man's scheme is truly terrifying."

With that said, Ju Wu looked at Tian Guang and asked.

"In the past, Marquis Lin Lu slaughtered countless heroes from the seven countries, but no one in the world could touch him. Now that Marquis Lin Lu has made such a huge effort, he wants to destroy Yan, can you stop him?"

Tian Guang looked at Ju Wu's deep face, his heart was disordered, and he took a step back. Then Tian Guang felt that he had lost his etiquette and bowed his hands, but remained silent.
