At the end of the Warring States period, he studied under Guiguzi, practiced the strategy of alliances and confederacies, established the Black Ice Platform, and helped Ying Zheng sweep across the ...
"Forget it, just ask what exam you want to take!"
Seeing Lu Li's impatient expression, Guiguzi was not angry. Instead, he slowly asked, "Then let me ask you, what is your view on the current state of the world?"
Lu Li pondered for a long time, and finally remembered the words of Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng in the classic Chinese history collection.
"In an era of great contention, the states frequently waged war against each other; the strong became strong, and the weak perished!"
When Lu Li said those words, his entire demeanor seemed to change, and Yue Qi immediately raised an eyebrow.
Since Lord Wu'an Bai Qi destroyed the six states, the strongest power in the world today is the Qin Dynasty.
Even states like Qi and Chu no longer dared to confront Qin.
"Taking Qin as the dominant state as an example, I think the other six states are like six cranes."
"Ha, to compare the six kingdoms to six cranes? Nonsense!" Yue Qi mocked again.
However, before Lu Li could speak, Guiguzi shouted angrily, "Yue Qi, shut up!"
Yue Qi pursed her lips and stopped talking.
Guiguzi, however, became interested in Lu Li's metaphor.
"Six cranes? What does that mean?"
Even Guiguzi was momentarily confused about what Lu Li wanted to say, and what he meant by comparing the six kingdoms to six cranes.
Lu Li smiled confidently and continued, "Conquering six kingdoms is like taming six cranes."
"Those two weak ones can be easily subdued with a few tricks."
"Those two strong ones are quite stubborn, but even the toughest one is still just a crane. With some ruthless methods, we can subdue it."
"As for those two that are neither strong nor weak, they lack initiative and temperament. They're like shadows; if the situation turns unfavorable, they'll dance on their own without needing any prompting."
As soon as Lu Li said that, Guiguzi's eyes lit up!
"Excellent! What a brilliant theory on taming cranes!"
Guiguzi clapped his hands in delight, his gaze towards Lu Li changing completely. This kid's arguments actually overlapped significantly with their School of Diplomacy!
