"The king is slow. "The king is slow. After Yingzheng issued the edict, Wang Jian followed closely.

Ying Zheng looked at Wang Jian with doubts in his eyes. "Oh, old general, but what questions do you have?"

Wang Jian bowed to Yingzheng, and then said: "Your Majesty, the old minister once raised his opinion to the king about the attack on the Chu State, but the king did not believe the old minister at that time. This time, Li Xinmengwu led his troops to attack the Chu State, and the king remembered the old minister. Yes and no?"

As soon as Wang Qian's words came out, everyone's eyes suddenly focused on Wang Qian's body, and it was not difficult to hear that Wang Jian seemed to be embarrassing the king.

Ying Zheng didn't understand what Wang Jian meant, so he opened his mouth and asked, "What does the old general mean by this?"

On that day, the king drove to the old minister's humble house, but he didn't believe what the old minister said, and he humiliated the old minister. The old minister himself also understands that now that the old minister is old, he has the intention of resigning from the king and going to the township to retire that day. Today, the old minister is also summoned by the king here, yes or no?" Wang Qian's words couldn't help but feel a little aggressive in the eyes of everyone, so everyone looked at Yingzheng again.

Ying Zheng didn't expect that Wang Jian would refute himself with the words he humiliated him that day, and he continued to ask: "Yes, the widow was indeed a little angry at that time, but the old general should understand that now that Daqin is the time to employ people, then Lian Po of Zhao State is still in his sixties and can still go into battle to kill the enemy, why does the old general feel that he is not as good as Lian Po now?"

Ying Zheng had already regretted it at this time, he regretted not listening to Wang Jian that day, and was complacent that Li Xin's 200,000 army could capture the Chu State. Facts have proved that Wang Qian's words are right, it was his mistake in winning the government, because of his mistake, the Qin State lost a great general who could fight well and nearly 100,000 soldiers.

Wang Jian shook his head, "How can Lian Po Lao'er compare with the old minister, now the king's Great Qin is not known how many times stronger than Zhao Guolai, the king of the world has already gained seven or eight, if the king really wants the old minister to go out to fight for the king to defeat the Chu State, the old minister has several conditions." As long as the king can agree, the old minister is willing to die for the king. ”

After Wang Qian's words were finished, Ying Zheng, who was sitting on the throne, had a gloomy face that could drip water, Li Si and Meng Tian and several of them could feel that Ying Zheng was a little angry by Wang Qian's words, but they were not easy to mediate in the middle.

Li Si raised an eyebrow at Meng Tian, hoping that he would come forward to reconcile. However, Meng Tian had been told by Wang Jian on the way here, so what Wang Jian said today was unexpected, but Meng Tian was unaware of the conditions proposed by Wang Qian.

Meng Tian saw that Li Si was glaring at him, and Meng Tian had no choice but to pretend that he didn't see it. On the one hand, Yingzheng, his good friend who has played since childhood, and on the other hand, Wang Qian, a respected elder who has always cared for him. Two people, Meng Tian didn't know who he should help.

The anger in the palace was very depressed, and Yingzheng sat on the throne with a gloomy face. Wang Jian was at the bottom of the steps, his head lowered and his expression could not be seen, and several people in Li Si didn't know what to say, so the atmosphere became deadlocked.

"Okay, what conditions does the old general have, just listen to it, and the widow will win. However, the widow has something to say ahead, if the old general fails to destroy the Chu State, the widow will not spare you. Ying Zheng was silent for a long time, and finally spoke.

"Okay, Lao Chen's first condition is to let the king send 600,000 troops led by Lao Chen to attack Chu State, this condition has been agreed to by the king, and Lao Chen will not say it anymore. The second condition of the old minister is the supply of grain and grass for the 600,000 army, and the king also knows that it is not a day's work to defeat the Chu State, nor is it the strength of a war. If the king really believes in the old man, then please don't ask the king about the war ahead, just supply the soldiers, horses, food, and grass of the 600,000 army. As long as the king is willing to give the old minister enough time, don't think that the old minister is old and useless, I don't know what the king thinks of this condition?"

Regarding Wang Qian's second condition, Ying Zheng also agreed. "As for the supply of military supplies, you will have to guarantee the old general. ”

Li Si said to Wang Qian: "Although General Wang killed the enemy on the battlefield in the front, he didn't have to ask about the affairs of the rear, if there was a problem with the supply of military supplies, Li Si was willing to apologize with death." "Zero Long Literature Network

After Li Si finished speaking, Ying Zheng followed up and said: "The old general said that there should be enough time, but don't let the widow wait too long, the widow has no patience to wait, I hope the old general can try to solve the battle quickly." "After all, 600,000 troops are already all the military strength that the Qin State can mobilize at present, and now maintaining local law and order in some places is almost a problem. So many people are in the hands of Wang Qian, in case this old guy has self-respect, then what can he do with him?

Wang Jian nodded at Li Si, expressing his belief in Li Si's ability. Wang Jian replied to Yingzheng's words: "This king can rest assured, the old minister has been fighting for decades, and he knows how to grasp the fighter, and he will never delay the king's time." The king also agreed to this second condition, so the old minister said the third condition. ”

"Okay, no problem, old general, please speak. ”

Wang Jian raised his head and said to Ying Zheng with a smile: "That is, please ask the king to give the old minister fertile land and fiefdom and good garden, and when the old minister returns to Xianyang, he can have a place to spend his old age in peace, so that the descendants of the old minister will not starve." ”

Ying Zheng's face changed again, he didn't doubt that Wang Jian couldn't destroy the Chu State, but was it too early to ask him for a reward so early.

Seeing that Yingzheng didn't speak, Wang Jian said: "Don't laugh at the worldly views of the old ministers, as the general of the Qin State, no matter how great the military exploits are, he will never be crowned a marquis, and future generations will not be able to enjoy the shadow." Now that the king has agreed to the conditions of the old minister's battle, the old minister has the courage to ask the king for a reward, so that even if the old minister dies on the battlefield for the king, there will be no place for the old minister's children and grandchildren to settle down. ”

Ying Zheng said angrily: "What the old general said is unreasonable, the old general Meng Fu died, the widow's favor to the Meng family is still undiminished, and then General Meng Wu also died on the battlefield, the old general sees that the widow's reward for the Meng family has been less?"

"Your Majesty, the sons and grandsons of Brother Meng Yi are all capable people, let's just say that Meng Tian and Meng Yi are two brothers, how can I compare with my unsuccessful grandson Wang Li? Meng Wu and my son Wang Ben can only be half a catty and eight taels, on par, so it is not impossible for my Wang family to decline in the future, the old minister is old, and he just hopes to be able to do something for future generations. ”

"Okay, well, the old general has fought for Daqin all his life, and has made countless military achievements, and now it is understandable to worry about the future generations, and the third condition of the old general has also been agreed. ”

Wang Jian continued: "Since the king has agreed to the first three conditions of the old minister, then the fourth condition should also be agreed to by the king. ”

Hearing that Wang Jian still had one condition, Yingzheng was a little impatient, and he said: "The old general still has a few conditions, just say it together, and the widow will promise you all of them." ”

Wang Jian opened his mouth and said: "Since the king has given the old minister land, then please ask the king to give the old minister some slaves to manage the land, so that the old minister's land will not be harvested." ”

What is this? Ying Zheng was a little embarrassed by Wang Qian's last condition. "This last condition, that's natural, the widow agreed. Old general, your four conditions have been agreed, and the widow just hopes that the old general will raise troops as soon as possible and go out to attack Chu. Ying Zheng said. Ying Zheng was still a little worried about Wang Qian's first two conditions, but after listening to Wang Qian's last two conditions, Ying Zheng was already relieved of Wang Qian, he was worried that Wang Jian would have other plans, and now he knew that a person who could ask him for good land and slaves who cultivated the land would have the world in his heart?

Hearing that Ying Zheng agreed to the four conditions he said, Wang Jian knelt down and said: "The old minister knows the truth of the speed of the soldiers, please rest assured, the old minister will order troops on the battlefield tomorrow and go to the army as soon as possible." ”

Seeing that Ying Zheng and Wang Jian had finally decided to attack the Chu State, Li Si and Meng Tian were relieved, and the game of this monarch and a minister really made people's hearts beat faster.

Within a few days, Wang Jian finished ordering his troops, led his subordinates to 200,000, Mengjia army 150,000, and the rest of the country transferred 250,000 troops, a total of 600,000 troops, divided into three routes to kill the Qin-Chu border.
