Chapter 127: The Beginning of the Destruction of the Swallow

In the twentieth year of the reign of King Qin, Prince Dan of Yan sent Jing Ke to assassinate the King of Qin, known as "Jing Ke Assassinated Qin", after the failure of the assassination of Qin, the King of Qin was furious, so he immediately sent Wang Jian to lead the troops to attack Yan.

If you look down from above, you can see that there seems to be a long dragon on the ground, exuding a dark metallic luster under the illumination of Yangguan, meandering forward in the spreading yellow sand.

The army marched out, and the long line was indeed surprisingly quiet, only the sound of heavy footsteps and the sound of armor rubbing, and none of the 100,000 troops dared to make noise at will. In the ancient army, it was inconvenient to disseminate news, and since ancient times, there was an order to "prohibit noise", and if there was a loud noise, it should be punished with a felony. And the Qin State, good for farming and warfare, the army is the crown of the Seven Kingdoms, for the Qin King Yingzheng to open up the territory and defend the territory, sweeping away the Seven Kingdoms, now, although it is still the most powerful, but it can be seen.

"Newspaper"

In front of the army, a scout in light armor sped up on horseback.

In front of the scouts, a whole group of cavalry advanced in an orderly manner, and the first of them was a general dressed in black armor and riding a horse.

"Speak," the general said.

"General Wang, thirty miles further, you will reach the territory of Yan Kingdom, west of the Yishui River," the scout replied

"Thirty miles, but half a day's walk, give the order to go down, and the whole army will be put together and rest," said the general, and soon the order was quickly conveyed to the army.

"Yan Guo, is there any movement?" asked Wang Qian.

"Not yet clear" scouts returned

Hearing this, Wang Jian frowned slightly and said, "Explore again"

"Yes" the scout took the order and rode away.

Wang Qian, the most indispensable in the history of the Qin State, can be called the hero of the founding fathers, in addition to the first to destroy Korea, Zhao, Yan, Chu were all defeated, and Qi, Wei and Wei were also defeated in the hands of Wang Ben, the son of Wang Qian, and then it was an expedition to Baiyue, and Li Mu, Bai Qi, Lian Po and called the four famous generals of the Warring States.

"General Wang, it's only noon now, march at full speed, and you can arrive at the bank of the Yishui River before sunset, and take a rest in order, is it too cautious?" said a lieutenant general in silver armor beside Wang Qian.

"Why did General Xin say this," Wang Jian asked without hurry.

Xin Sheng heard Wang Qian's question, and after a slight mutter, he said, "General Wang's bravery can be said to be the soul of our army, even General Li Mu, who is known as the god of war in Zhao State, was defeated like a mountain under General Wang, and even went down to nine cities, captured Zhao State in one fell swoop, which shocked the princes. Now the prince of Yan State pretended to sue for peace and assassinated the king, and the king ordered the general to go out to conquer Yan State, and he must use the power of thunder to exterminate Yan State and revitalize the majesty of Qin. ”

After hearing this, Wang Jian smiled slightly. Since LΓΌ Buwei's forces were purged, Yingzheng officially took over the government, reused Wang Qian, and ordered Wang Jian to lead his troops to attack Zhao, opening the curtain of the war to unify the Seven Kingdoms. After dealing with Li Mu for more than a year, Wang Jian finally used a counter-strategy to successfully get rid of Li Mu and capture the Zhao State.

"Soldiers, the major affairs of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival, must not be overlooked. This is what the soldier saint Sun Wu said, I have studied the way of war since I was a child, and war and conquest are the top priority of a country and a nation. As the deputy general of this time, General Xin should set an example and be cautious in his words and deeds. Wang Jian stroked his goatee and said.

When Xin Sheng heard this, his admiration for Wang Jian was even greater, and he bowed his head slightly and said, "What General Wang said is like an enlightenment, and Xin Sheng has been taught."

"General Xin's words are serious, you and I are both Great Qin generals, and we should work together to attack the city for Great Qin and level the Six Kingdoms," Wang Jian said proudly

When Xin Sheng heard this, his heart was also hot.

The news of Qin's attack on Yan is naturally impossible to hide, such a huge army can be seen as long as you are not blind, not to mention that in such a war era, each country has its own intelligence system, not to mention, after the failure of the assassination of Qin, Qin's attack on Yan has long been expected.

At this time, in the palace of King Yan, Yan Wangxi has long lost the appearance that a king should have, and after the failure of the tattoo, he is even more panicked every day, and is awakened by nightmares every night, and the whole person's face is lifeless, as if he has lost his soul. At this time, when they learned that the army of Qin was coming, they were like ants on a hot pot, walking back and forth anxiously in the palace, and those Wencheng generals of Yan State were also pale in their faces, and their hearts were even more frightened than Yan Wangxi, whether it was Qin or Yan Wang, it was not something they could afford to offend.

"Father, my son has an urgent report" Yan Dan walked into the palace with an anxious face.

King Yan was happy to see Yan Dan coming, the dislike and disgust flashed between his expressions, and he asked impatiently, "What's the matter with you, tell me quickly"

"The Qin general Wang Jian led a large army to press the border, which is thirty miles away from our country," Yan Dan said heavily.

"Huh?"

Hearing this, there was an uproar in the entire palace, Yan Wangxi sat on the throne all at once, his lips trembled a little, and those courtiers were all prostrate on the ground in horror after the uproar, and they didn't dare to say more.

"Wang Qian, it's actually Wang Qian, and it's finally here," Yan Wangxi said tremblingly. Although we knew that this day would come eventually, when it did, the fear was far more suffocating than I imagined.

"Father, this matter is caused by the son-in-law, the son-in-law is willing to take on the responsibility, please allow my father to allow me to lead the army to meet the enemy" Yan Dan looked at the city of civil and military, sighed in his heart, and then thought of Han Fei's words when he assassinated Qin, as well as Jing Ke and Ye Chen's absoluteness of stabbing Qin, a trace of sadness inevitably rose in his heart, and at the same time, there was some anger.

Looking at Yan Dan's appearance, and then at the courtiers kneeling on the ground, Yan Wangxi was silent for a long time, and finally agreed to Yan Dan's proposal. Although he was terrified in his heart, Yan Wangxi also clearly understood that there was no possibility of reconciliation in the first battle of Qin Yan, and only now, only a desperate battle could have a glimmer of life! Although, Yan Wangxi did not have much hope for the second report.

After Yan Dan left, finally these courtiers slowly got up and talked about something in a whisper, and Yan Wangxi was depressed at this time, and he didn't want to pay attention to the chaotic court.

"King, the assassination of Qin is completely done by His Royal Highness the Prince, it's better for us to hand it over... A courtier said in a hesitant manner, but before he finished speaking, he heard King Yan scolding in a loud voice: "Bold!

Seeing King Yan's anger, all the courtiers were terrified, and for a moment, the entire palace was silent, only the sound of heavy breathing came and went.

Looking at the courtier who was dragged out, Yan Wangxi's eyes were uncertain, as if he was thinking about something,

If it really comes to that point, Yan Dan, don't blame your father...

The Qin army pressed the border, Prince Dan led the troops to meet the battle, and the war was about to break out!
