Chapter 10, Teaching How to Be a Person

The first thing the new king of Zhao did after ascending the throne was to send someone to take his place

No wonder the net is coming to trouble me, so that's how it is

Sometimes, the greatest enemy is not in front of you, but behind you

There is someone

The net is too small to underestimate Lian Po, who has been taught a lesson by this old general

Alliance

By his own efforts, he not only rescued the State of Wei from the brink of destruction but also restrained the eastward advance of the State of Qin

Therefore, your assassination of Lian Po indicates that you believe he has the potential to become the leader of this alliance.

In those years, Qin and Qi were jointly referred to as the Two Emperors, with their national power flourishing and their military strength unrivaled in the world

Relying solely on one's own strength to go against the great trends of the world is ultimately difficult to sustain

Without a doubt, if any other words were to escape from one's mouth, the long sword hanging from the neck would strike down without hesitation

At over eighty years of age, Lian Po still possesses remarkable strength. This renowned general, who witnessed the rise and fall of the Zhao state, now finds himself in a state of confusion

Lian Po looked at Wei Wuji, who was younger than him, yet also weaker than himself

At the Pass of Hangu, the Qin army was forced to close the pass and did not dare to engage in direct confrontation with them

Therefore, these individuals must die

In order to unite forces

Only a complete change in the balance of power between the two sides can provide a way out

Lord Yansun, we have arrived late!

Regarding the eclipse, today's failure must absolutely not be known to the fourth person

If Brother Wang knew that I was appointed as the commander of the alliance, he would not agree to let the State of Wei send troops

Recently, King Zhao has expressed his intention to have the general return to the Zhao state to take command of the army, and it is hoped that the general will make every effort to fulfill this duty

Lian Po's statement is not an act of modesty. This is because during the last alliance of the various states, the commander was Wei Wuji. In today's world, only Wei Wuji can command the respect of the various states.

For King Wei, all he desires is the stability of his throne

Wei Wuji's power was so great that it shook the world

In fact, this alliance has been prepared quite meticulously. Although the net has sensed some signs, it still does not know who initiated it, nor how many people they have recruited. It can only monitor the movements of various countries as much as possible, and once any signs emerge, they will be eliminated.

What a pity

However, King Wei did not trust him, and Lian Po was also regretting.

Among the six nations, there is no shortage of capable generals skilled in warfare, yet it is quite difficult to find a person of sufficient prestige to command the armies of all the nations

The alliance to eliminate Qin is naturally advantageous for the State of Wei, but it may not necessarily be so for the King of Wei

In the Battle of Jixi, King Min of Qi commanded poorly, resulting in a great defeat for the Qi army. Yan general Le Yi captured seventy-two cities of Qi in succession, leading to the direct destruction of the State of Qi

Zhao Shuang smiled gently, it seems this is the answer to the unusual movements in the Three Jin as mentioned by Guiguzi

Xuan Jian sheathed his twin swords, no longer intending to linger, and slowly walked into the forest, his figure disappearing from the sight of the crowd

Wei Wuji gazed into the distance, letting out a long sigh, his face filled with sorrow

Before the momentum of the alliance among various states has fully developed, preemptively eliminating it is indeed the best approach

A few days ago, it was very hot; after a sudden autumn rain, the weather turned cold in an instant, and Wei Wuji could not help but cough lightly a few times

After the Battle of Changping, this man before us made the State of Qin taste the bitterness of defeat

I am fine. Unfortunately, I cannot stay in Daliang for too long; otherwise, I would truly like to see what kind of hero is capable of manipulating the net and creating such a great commotion in Daliang

Bai Qi is an unparalleled military god, yet Lian Po did not fall at his hands

The most devastating failure

Xuan Jian's expression changed, and sounds of unusual movement arose in the forest

Alliance

The voice behind seemed somewhat puzzled, not understanding the meaning of these words

In the courtyard, after hearing this term from Wei Wuji, Lian Po burst into laughter

In theory, if the various states were to form an alliance, the most suitable candidate for this alliance should be the sovereign.

As long as he is present, under his influence, the State of Qin would not dare to take any significant actions against the State of Wei

In this way, Lü Buwei would not find himself in the most perilous situation, besieged from both sides.

Then, his figure swiftly flashed and landed within the protective circle of the net assassins

To organize a coalition, it is essential to coordinate the forces of various nations, and the preparations must be meticulous. Once exposed in advance, the forces aiming to unite against Qin will not only face pressure from the Qin state but also run the risk of being defeated one by one by Qin. Furthermore, they may encounter obstruction from opposing forces within the six nations.

He not only possesses unparalleled swordsmanship, but also harbors immense ambition, which is why he is unwilling to die

Zhu Hai looked at Wei Wuji with some concern

Assassins do not spare their lives, yet the sun conceals its differences

After the death of King Zhuangxiang of Qin, the new ruler ascended to the throne, and Lü Buwei served as regent, known as the "Zhongfu." Although the Qin state was powerful, it was internally unstable. Therefore, some individuals seized the opportunity, intending to emulate the events of the former Qi state and unite to destroy Qin.

Lü Buwei detected the signs and, in order to thwart this alliance, ordered the net to strike and assassinate those who could potentially become leaders of the coalition

In the blink of an eye, a murderous intent flashed in the eyes as the long sword in hand was wielded, and with a single stroke, all four assassins from the net surrounding him were silenced.

Upon hearing Wei Wuji's words, Lian Po felt a deep sense of empathy.

Unlike the last time, this time it is not about defensive counterattacks, but rather about taking the initiative to strike.

The Battle of Handan resulted in heavy casualties among the hundreds of thousands of Qin troops

From this point on, the coalition forces scattered, and the momentum of the Qin army to engulf the six states was completely interrupted

Such individuals, even in the vastness of the world, are few and far between

The alliance to destroy Qin

In those years, Wei Wuji formed alliances with the states on two occasions. First, he secretly took the command symbol to rescue Zhao, and later he led the coalition forces of various states to repel the Qin general Meng Ao, pushing back from the borders of Wei all the way to the banks of the Yellow River, in front of the Hangu Pass

The bravery of Lian Po is unparalleled in the world

After Lian Po left, a light rain began to fall in the courtyard

For King Wei, he has achieved the result he desired the most. The State of Qin no longer attacks Wei, and his throne is once again secure

Why kill Lian Po

The State of Qin has become excessively powerful; if I were to die, the State of Wei would likely face its demise.

Within the borders of the nation, considering the vastness of the world, when mentioning the State of Wei, the first person that comes to mind for the public is Lord Xinling, rather than the King of Wei

Subsequently, the Qin army employed a strategy of sowing discord, taking advantage of King Wei's deep-seated apprehension, and at a critical moment, sent someone to replace Lord Xinling.

This man, who made the powerful Qin hesitate and dared not look eastward, spoke with a tone full of helplessness

Although Tian Dan later restored the state, the national strength of Qi continued to decline thereafter

Lian Po, feeling indignant, attacked the envoy with his troops and fled to Daliang

Anyone who utters this statement will be met with derision by those present. Those bold enough to make such a claim are either individuals seeking fame and recognition or arrogant and ignorant fools

It was only that King Min of Qi did not know how to restrain himself, annihilating Song and swallowing Yan. Similar to today's Qin state, he provoked widespread anger, ultimately leading to a coalition of various states, with five nations attacking Qi

It is better to arrive late than not to arrive at all

The assassin of the net has arrived

Upon hearing Lian Po's words, Wei Wuji shook his head

Having gained freedom, the first thing that Yan Ri wanted to know was who exactly the person behind the tree was just now

Your Majesty need not worry, for I shall certainly do my utmost this time.

Your Majesty

Only Wei Wuji can say such words, which makes them convincing and seems entirely reasonable to others

As the sun was obscured, the corners of her mouth lifted in a smile. In the moment of distraction, she forcefully pushed aside the white sword in his hand, unleashing her true energy, which forced him back several steps

But there, the shadow of that person has long since vanished

Before knowing the extent of the other party's influence, eliminating those who could potentially become the leader of a coalition is indeed the most straightforward approach
