116 Hidden Mission: Quell the Rebellion of the Frogs
When Li Liang and others landed at the wharf next to Weishui outside Xianyangcheng, the band played a welcome music, while Yingzheng and Changpingjun and other civil and military officials had been waiting on the shore for a long time.
On the way back to the palace, the people cheered and cheered, set off firecrackers and fireworks, and every household put up lanterns, the atmosphere was blazing, boiling with the gratitude and enthusiasm of the Qin people.
The names of Chu Jun and Li Liang are called endlessly.
Under the leadership of Ying Zheng, everyone first went to the rented temple to pay homage to the Qin Dynasty's ancestors, mourned the fallen soldiers, and then announced that a state banquet would be held that night, and at the same time the three armies would be rewarded.
Then Ying Zheng held a meeting with Li Liang in the inner court, and Ying Zheng's other three henchmen Wang Ling, Li Si and Changping Jun were also attended.
Ying Zheng was nominally nineteen years old at this time, but he was actually twenty-one years old. He is a grown adult man.
He is magnificent, broad-shouldered and thick-backed, calm and confident, and his eyes are deep and unpredictable.
He just sat casually, but his compelling bearing was enough to make people feel the urge to bow down.
Everyone congratulated and discussed the current situation.
Now Li Muzheng moved his division to attack Qi, not only repelling the Qi soldiers who wanted to take the opportunity to seize the land of the Zhao people, but also capturing the Rao An of the Qi people, so that Wang Hao could take a breath.
Li Mu is now victorious in every battle, if it weren't for the veteran town of Wang Jaw, I am afraid that the four eastern counties have fallen.
Wang Ben was promoted to general by Yingzheng, and was also sent to the eastern part of Xinjiang to aid Wang Hao and resist Li Mu.
As for Wang Qian, the tiger general who is as famous as Li Liang, it is difficult to transfer back for a while.
So. Yingzheng sent Mengwu and Mengtian to fight in Wei, and when they had experience, they could replace Wang Qian. If you act rashly at this time. Maybe this important position with the power of the border army will fall into the hands of Lü Buwei and Chang Yu.
That night, Ying Zheng presided over a banquet in the palace, and all the residents of the city were given food and drink.
For Ying Zheng, Li Liang's victory is like his own victory, and he is extremely satisfied and happy.
Li Liang naturally became the protagonist in the banquet, the cups came and went, there was no system to cheat, and he deliberately let go of his heart. Halfway through the banquet, he was drunk and unconscious.
When I woke up the next day, I found that I was sleeping on the dragon couch of the future Qin Shi Huang, and it turned out that Yingzheng insisted on treating each other like this.
Ji Yanran and the others all stayed in the palace. Wait for him to get up.
When Yingzheng came back, he had lunch with Li Liang and others, which was quite a family meeting.
After the meal, Li Liang led his wife and children back to the National Teacher's Palace. I took a nap with the little ones. Wake up refreshed.
Ji Yanran's daughters were sitting on the couch gossiping, talking about the interesting stories of a few little guys, and the joy was also harmonious, and his heart melted when he heard it, and he felt sweet and warm.
Compared to the cruelty of war, this is really a paradise of warmth and affection. The warmth here melted away the smell of blood and murderous aura all over his body.
When the women saw him wake up, they waited for him to get up.
Ying Zheng recruited Li Liang into the palace to talk about things. Li Liang left after bathing.
Now, after the defeat of Pang Zhan. The other countries of the United Column all accused him of being reckless and having missed this good opportunity to defeat our Great Qin, so that his prestige plummeted, and it seemed that it would be difficult for them to have another joint alliance.
Lost the battle, everyone shirked their responsibilities, this time in the battle of Yucheng, the fastest to go is the Chu people, and it has also become the target of other people's criticism, making it very unhappy, the five countries should have been uncoordinated for a long time.
Meng Fu fell ill after being recalled to Xian-Yang, Lü Buwei, a ruthless and unrighteous person, was very cold to him, and now Lü Buwei vigorously cultivated Zhou Ziheng, Xu Shang, Zhao Pu and Lian Jiao, and recently sent Zhou Ziheng and Zhao Pu to attack Korea, and also captured a city.
Lü Buwei has always been powerful and powerful, and now he is colluding with Shang Chengcheng and others, which is even more difficult to deal with. Zhou Ziheng has a thick face and a black belly, Xu Shang's military force is peerless, if they become another Mengfu and rebel on a different day, it will be even more troublesome.
On the way, Li Liang suddenly thought that Wang Hao's situation was quite bad now.
Wang Jaw fought in Zhao Realm, and he had to rely on Du Bi and Cheng Chan to support him in all aspects, and Lü Buwei wanted to borrow Du Bi's hand to draw his hind legs when Li Mu was fighting with Wang Jaw, and the consequences could be imagined.
Ying Zheng was playing chess with his concubine Wang Meixiu for fun, and when he saw him coming, he immediately met him in the inner court.
Li Liang didn't ask him what he was looking for, but first explained Wang Hao's situation.
Ying Zheng's color changed: "This plan is indeed extremely vicious, it can be seen that if you don't get rid of the worm for a day, the widow is still in a difficult position." ”
Ying Zheng then summoned the guards and ordered to immediately send fast horses to Shangchuan to warn Wang Hao to take precautions.
After the arrangements were made, the future Qin Shi Huang said with a solemn expression: "If there is a misfortune in General Wang, we will immediately deal with Cheng Qiao and Du Bi, so as to get rid of this confidant, and then the widow will have to see how Lu Buwei ends." ”
Then he smiled and said in a low voice: "The princess is happy!" ”
Li Liang has a feeling that his son has grown up, and he sincerely congratulates him.
Ying Zheng said distressedly: "Now that Lu Buwei and the Queen Mother are not in Xianyang, it is best to give this child a good name first, then it will not be their turn to change it, what does the master propose?" ”
Li Liang rushed out and said: "That must be called Fusu." ”
"Name the future prince of Great Qin and get 20,000 causal energy."
Accidents always happen inadvertently, and Li was stunned in his conscience.
Ying Zheng looked at him in amazement for a long time, and the future Qin Shi Huang nodded and said, "This name is also special." But it was necessary to have a daughter's name, and at that time, no matter whether a boy or a girl was born, there would be a name. ”
Li Liang coughed and said: "I only think of the boy's name, the girl's name follows the mother, and her mother or the queen mother will take it." ”
Ying Zheng didn't care about the girl's name, silently read Fusu several times, and said happily: "If the son is really born, let's call it Fusu!" ”
Li Liang also knew that he would influence the future history with the history he knew, so he was strange in his heart and left the palace.
As soon as he returned to the National Teacher's Palace, Jing Jun rushed in and said, "Meng Fu has passed away!" ”
After the funeral, Jing Jun was officially promoted to the commander of the capital cavalry. Since he is now in the Lu family, all the important members of the military have strong support for Lu Gong.
Wu Guo, Wu Yan and Zhou Liang are the deputies, so that they all ride the system of the prince. Unlike Duwei, the two parties of Lü Buwei and Miao Poison contain each other and compete with each other.
Of course! Now Lu Miao is colluding, and he is a different matter.
The iron guards appreciated it because of Yingzheng's discernment. became the leader of his Praetorian Guard, and his status was greatly improved.
Huan Qi was still in charge of the training of the rapid aid division, and Meng Wu and Meng Tian completed the funeral and immediately led the troops to the Wei State to avenge the Wei people's participation in the joint army.
Basically, the Qin State still adopted the strategy of distant friendship and close attack, that is, to appease the three kingdoms of Chu, Qi and Yan. Only use troops against the three jins.
Li Liang took the opportunity to ask for leave, returned to the ranch with Teng Yi's family, and practiced sword skills and riding and archery every day. Come and play in the mountains and rivers, make fun of children, so unpleasant.
Spring went to summer, and on this day I received a letter from Qinqing.
It turned out that this pretty woman set a return date. Will return to Xian-Yang in early autumn.
Tao Fang kept bringing news to the ranch.
Lü Buwei Fu returned to Xian-Yang. I went to Bashu again, and the small movements continued.
Miao Poison and Empress Dowager Zhu Ji also returned to Xian-Yang. Miao Poison's attitude was even more arrogant, and even Changping Jun and Wang Ling and other important ministers did not pay attention to it, and Zhu Ji was brought out in everything, and Yingzheng could only endure hardship.
Zhou Ziheng won several battles in Korea and was promoted to general, faintly replacing Meng's position. But of course, prestige and real power are still out of reach.
Mengwu Mengtian won all the battles in Wei and captured the Wei people's court. The prestige has soared and he has become a new star of the new generation of fighters.
What worries Li Liang the most is that Wang Jaw really hit the plan. Taking advantage of Li Mu's move to attack Qi and send troops to attack the Shangdang of the Zhao people, Li Liang only hoped that the people sent by Yingzheng could warn Wang Jaw in time, otherwise the enemy would be attacked on his back, and the situation would not be good.
Just when he was worried, the bad news came at the end of May, Wang Hao was defeated by Li Mu in Shangdang, Wang Jaw was killed on the spot, Wang Ben and Yang Duanhe led the remnants of the army to retreat to Shangchuan.
Li Liang's last hope finally happened.
Lü Buwei once again succeeded in his treacherous scheme.
And Li Liang's happy days are over.
When Li Liangfei rode to Xianyang Palace, he felt a gloomy mist.
Since sixteen years ago, Xin Lingjun led the Five Nations Alliance Army to defeat the Qin army outside Handan-Dan City. The Qin people had never tried to have a general of the same level as Wang Jaw to die on the battlefield, and the enormity of this blow was really difficult to estimate.
When Li Liang came to the study, Wang Ling, Li Si, Changping Jun, Miao Poison, Wang Juan, Cai Ze and other ministers were waiting outside the door for Yingzheng to summon him.
Wang Ling's eyes were red, and the whole person seemed to have aged for several years, which made Li Liang clearly feel his old age and decay, which was a feeling that he had never felt before, which made him very uncomfortable.
He greeted Li Liang and said in a low voice: "The prince refuses to see us, only says that he will wait for you to come first." I see you go first to see the prince, and then call us in!" ”
Miao Poison was eavesdropping, and said angrily: "This is the time when everyone should discuss it carefully, how can the prince lock himself up and let me go in with the national teacher." ”
The crowd looked disgusted.
Li Liang patted Miao Poison on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Let me go in on behalf of you first to find out the situation!" The mood of the prince is the mood of our now, and everyone should understand. ”
No matter how domineering Miao Poison was, he didn't dare to offend Li Liang, so he dispelled his mind and said, "Let's wait here!" But it's time for the Queen Mother to come. ”
Li Liang brought Zhu Ji out after hearing him say a few words, and he felt disgusted in his heart, and went into the study.
Ying Zheng stood with his back to the door and window, not moving.
Before Li Liang could speak, Ying Zheng said lightly: "Our people are still one step late, and the traitor's poisonous plan succeeds." ”
Li Liang didn't expect that Ying Zheng not only didn't feel a little sad, but was far calmer than usual, and didn't speak for a while.
Ying Zheng turned around and said with a slight smile: "I just issued an order to Cheng Cheng and Du Bi to immediately lead troops to attack the party, and when the master goes out, I can tell them that the widow suddenly fell ill because of the grief for the death of Wang Jaw, and Miao Poison will definitely send Mao Jiao to investigate the truth in the name of curing the disease, and we can use Mao Jiao's mouth to deceive Miao Poison." ”
Li Liang was shocked and said, "It seems that Lu Buwei is really in collusion with Miao Poison. "This is something that has never been said in the history books!
Ying Zheng sneered: "The Queen Mother wants me to make Miao Poison the Marquis of Changxin, the same level as Lu Buwei, and Lu Buwei doesn't object, what does the master say is this?" ”
After a pause, he said: "I have summoned Wang Jian back several times, but I have been blocked by Lu Buwei and Miao Poison, without the permission of the Queen Mother, there is nothing I can do as a human king." Now our army is contained in the territory of the Three Jin Dynasty, in addition to the three major military systems in Xianyang, there is only a quick reinforcement division, and the total strength is only between 120,000 people, and it is not able to recruit Cheng Cheng and Du Bi at all, so there is only fake illness to lead them to attack. Then the master will clean them up, and there is no other way. ”
Li Liang sighed: "The prince has really grown up. ”
Ying Zheng looked up, sighed and said, "Since ......." All this is forced, and there is no human reason to talk about it. ”
Li Liang sighed with him, walked out of the study, and everyone gathered around him. Li Liang said dejectedly: "The prince is sick!" ”
Ying Zheng's "illness" lasted for three months, and the early dynasty was handed over to Zhu Ji to deal with.
Li Liang and Huan Qi conscripted troops and increased the number of quick reinforcements to 50,000. They practiced outside Xian-Yang all day long, and used the imaginary march route from the east to consolidate the defensive measures and communication system.
It's snow-melting season. When the news came, Cheng Chan heard the news that "Brother Nai" was seriously ill, not only disobeyed the order and did not attack the party, but also negotiated peace with Zhao Ren. According to the 150,000 troops gathered with Du Bi. Quietly bypass the cities along the way and rush to Xianyang.
Cheng Chan's rebels arrived in the north of Xian-Yang by boat before diving to Xian-Yang.
Li Liang had been paying close attention to their movements, and dispatched 20,000 horsemen overnight, plus 50,000 quick reinforcements, to ambush Cheng Qiao's army at a predetermined ideal location.
In addition, a smoke screen was released, saying that the army of Xian-Yang had arrived at Yucheng for exercises.
Therefore, when the news of the arrival of the Cheng Python army came, the entire Xian-Yang City shook.
Ying Zheng was really going to lie on the couch at this time. Only Changping Jun, Li Si and other henchmen know what it is all about.
Both Miu Poison and Zhu Ji looked overwhelmed. It shows that they did not know that Cheng Chan and Du Bi would raise troops to openly rebel.
Lü Buwei is still hiding in Bashu, it seems that he has made up his mind to be the yellow finch behind the praying mantis.
The Xian-Yang chaos will naturally be reported to Cheng Chan and Du Bi by the line eye. so that they are more negligent in their adversity.
It's no wonder they, who would have guessed that the future Qin Shi Huang knew that they would rebel four months ago?
It is simply impossible to deal with a general like Du Bi who can conquer and fight, and to ambush and raid somewhere. Because he must have a vanguard force, and after affirming that there is no problem ahead, the main army will advance behind.
But Li Liang has his own clever plan.
He divided the army into two, led by Huan Qi and Jing Jun, an army of 20,000 people, and placed them in a hidden place outside Xianyang.
He and Teng Yi led the remaining 50,000 elite soldiers to hide in a dense forest far from the marching route of the Cheng Chan, waiting for the arrival of their prey.
The weather was good on this day.
Cheng Chan's vanguard came to a hundred miles north of Xian-Yang City, and because they heard the news that the defenders would not go out of the city to meet the enemy and were only ready to defend the city, Cheng Chan and Du Bi did not particularly strengthen their vigilance.
At this time, Zhou Liang led the Eagle King to report, and the enemy's rearguard troops finally passed by.
Li Liang knew that the time had come, and with an order, all the cavalry went out, using the cover of the dense forest, biting the enemy's tail to cover up.
They calculated very accurately, and when the enemy rested to make a fire to make food, it was the moment when they set up a fence.
Cheng Chan's rearguard was completely unafraid of an enemy attack, and actually set up camp on a hillside, with the official road to Xianyang at its foot, lined with lush woods, and the tents of 50,000 people were densely covered with the top and foot of the slope.
Just when they still had no chance to set up lookouts on the high places, Li Liang and Teng Yi's about 50,000 elite horsemen had already arrived silently along the forest.
Li Liang knew that there was no place for mercy in the current situation. Therefore, he gave the order to annihilate the enemy, and took advantage of the twilight to surround the 50,000 enemy regiments, and then waited for the opportunity to attack.
When the east turned white, the enemy got up and moved, talking and laughing loudly and noisily, while preparing for breakfast.
Li Liang gave an order, the drums sounded, and 50,000 elite horsemen rushed out of the dense forest and launched an all-out onslaught.
This turned into a massacre with little resistance.
The enemy threw down the rice bowl in his hand, and he didn't even have time to lead the horse, so he fled for his life alone.
After several assaults, the rearguard units had long since collapsed, and everyone was running on foot to flee for their lives.
The rout of the rearguard troops immediately involved the main force of nearly 90,000 Chinese troops, who were about to return to the division to rescue, Huan Qi and Jing Jun each led 10,000 elite cavalry to attack the vanguard troops from the left and right, so that the Cheng army suffered from the enemy on the back of the abdomen, and the formation was in chaos.
Li Liang and Teng Yi killed from behind with the momentum of breaking bamboo, and with a slight impact, the Cheng Python army immediately fell into a crazy chaos.
Cheng Cheng and Du Bi were targeted by everyone, and thousands of guards were surrounded.
Li Liang led the battle into the enemy formation and killed Du Bi with his own hands. At the same time, according to Yingzheng's orders, Cheng Chan was executed on the spot, and this bane was removed.
Li Liang suffered only more than 10,000 casualties in this battle, which can be regarded as a brilliant battle.
Forty thousand of the rebels were killed, and the remaining 80,000 who could not escape surrendered.
"Hidden Mission: Successfully pacify the rebellion of Cheng Chan, kill Cheng Chan and Du Bi, and obtain the identity of the protagonist (edge) of 2 eras, and 200,000 causal energy." (To be continued......)
