Chapter 1470: The Han Flag World (160) knows that firewood and rice are expensive
No matter how fast Wang Changyong reacted, he couldn't change the actual ending, even if he abandoned all the baggage, in the heavy snowstorm and snow, their daily itinerary could not get rid of the tail of the New Qin army, and the tens of thousands of New Qin troops led by Wang Jian were like a dog skin paste, clinging closely behind Wang Changyong, and on the third day, Wang Changyong finally stopped, because the road was no longer passable.
The sporadic escape of the Gouxin Department brought the news that the Gouxin army was wiped out and he was also killed in battle, which made Wang Changyong completely desperate, and in a place called Longquan, tens of thousands of troops stopped and began to deploy on the spot.
The information brought by the soldiers who escaped from the Hook Letter Department made Wang Changyong understand that even if he ran, he would not be able to escape. In this desperate season, he has no way to go except for destruction, since the left and right are dead, it is better to accumulate strength and make a last fight, even if it can drag more Han troops into the water, it is worth it.
Wang Zhijun's eyes seemed to be about to breathe fire, staring at Wang Jian who was sitting next to the stove in the big tent, this person, born in the family of Great Qin generals, was favored by the country, and was once known as the most outstanding general of the new generation of Great Qin, but now, he has become the gravedigger of the Great Qin Dynasty.
This person is still very good, he can build a new territory in an unfamiliar region, establish a new country, and achieve a new career, but this has nothing to do with Great Qin, and now, he is Great Qin's mortal enemy. In a certain aspect, Wang Zhijun hates Wang Jian more than he hates the Han people, because the Han people are their enemies, everyone fights to the death, who wins and who loses, there is nothing to blame, Wang Zhijun can accept it, but he can't accept losing in the hands of Wang Jian.
Once upon a time, the Great Qin Dynasty also used Wang Jian as the largest external aid.
Hearing the other party's teeth clenched and his fists clenched, Wang Jian raised his head. glanced at Wang Zhijun, but there was a gentle smile in his eyes.
"Sit down, General Wang, warm and warm, you guys are there, now I'm afraid that the water will turn into ice, and the temperature inside the big tent is not much different from the outside. Look at your dignified commander-in-chief, you have frostbite on your hands. Wang Jian raised the tongs and pointed to the opposite side of the firepit. This is a smokeless medium transported from Jishi County of the Han Kingdom, do you know how far it is from Jishi County to here? More than 800 miles. But to get these things here, it took them less than eight days, a hundred miles a day! ”
Wang Zhijun sat down heavily. He understood the meaning of what Wang Jian said, strong logistics transportation capacity has always been a very key thing in a war. With such a strong transportation capacity, the Han people were naturally able to bring in more supplies, weapons, and even reinforcements at any time.
"Can you imagine that it wasn't the Han soldiers who were transporting these things at all, but some Han contractors? Right. It's the contractors, they call themselves that. Wang Jian put down the tongs and poured a cup of hot tea for Wang Zhijun. Drink a little and warm up. Good black tea can warm the stomach and drink it in winter, which is very good for the body. ”
"General Wang. I'll ......" Wang Zhijun suppressed the anger and disgust in his heart, and tried his best to calm his tone, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold it back. He would splash the hot tea in his hand on the face of the breezy guy opposite. It's a pleasure to be like this, but it doesn't matter if you anger the other party because of this, and the general's last thoughts will be shattered because of this.
"I know what you're trying to say, don't say it yet, listen to me first, okay?" Wang Jian interrupted him with a smile, he looked down at the tea in his hand that was rippling slightly, and his tone was gentle, as if he was saying something that had nothing to do with him.
"A few years ago, I took more than 30,000 soldiers of the Qin army to cross the desert at the risk of death and arrived at the other side of the desert, but what we arrived at was not a paradise, but a place that was more chaotic than the Central Plains, and there was no royal law.
"It took me years and a great deal of my brother who followed me to death, to pacify it, to bring all those who disobeyed us into submission at my feet, and to establish a new kingdom. What years are unforgettable in my life, every day is spent in fear, because at any time, we may face a catastrophe, and everything may be lost in an instant. ”
"General Wang, isn't it because of the Han people that caused all this? Don't you hate them? If you hate them, why don't you go back and join us in the rebellion against the tyranny of the Han Chinese? Wang Zhijun said excitedly.
"Hate, in those years, I hated the Han people to death." Wang Jian laughed, "How can we not hate, we are defeated on the prairie, thousands of people have died, and my father has died here." You say I hate it or not, even after defeating all the forces there and establishing a new country, I still hate, and I am still thinking about how to fight back, how to avenge this arrow. ”
"General Wang." Wang Zhijun's eyes flashed with a glint of hope.
"But, the more I got to it, the more I hated it, you know why?" Wang Jian took a sip of tea lightly and asked lightly.
"Because of the passage of time, the hatred in your heart is fading, you are used to comfort, forgetting your father's death, forgetting that Daqin is in dire straits." Wang Zhijun said excitedly.
"You are wrong, I have never felt comfortable all these years, because there is something more important than hatred resting on my shoulders, General Wang, do you understand what it is? That's millions of people. The seven things that opened the door were really ordinary to me before, but when I sat in the highest position, I realized how important these things are, because if you can't satisfy your people, they will rise up and rebel against you. Wang Jian said softly.
Wang Zhijun was stunned, as a leading general, he has always only thought about leading the troops to fight and how to defeat the enemy, as for the rest, it is not within his scope of consideration, the logistics and materials are insufficient, just report and keep up.
"It's a lot harder than defeating the enemy." Wang Jian said softly, "I have to put more strength on these, but I still feel powerless from time to time, I can't let the people go hungry, otherwise you won't be able to sit still." ”
Wang Zhijun took a deep breath and opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.
"At this time, I met powerful foreign enemies, some fierce enemies from farther away, their purpose was to turn all those who disobeyed them into their slaves, I won the first battle, but I also saw their strength, learned about their kingdom, I understood that I was not their opponent."
"Haven't you already won?" Wang Zhijun asked puzzled.
Wang Jian smiled: "I won a lost dog that they lost in the domestic political struggle, but even so, I also spent a lot of effort, this war made me understand that with my strength alone, sooner or later I will run away again, but this time, where can I escape?" ”
"What Da Qin can help you with is that you don't accept it." Wang Zhijun said angrily.
"Can Da Qin really help me?" Wang Jian stared at Wang Zhijun, "What has Daqin been doing over the years, and what have they used to help me, is it the army, food, or weapons?" ”
"Da Qin can't help me, because over the years, Da Qin has been fighting with one mind, and Da Qin has fallen to this point, half of it is from the pressure of the Han State from outside, and half of it is because of his own sin. Self-inflicted, can't live, if it weren't for Lu Chao's chaos, would Great Qin collapse so quickly? The court is unstable, the people's hearts are scattered, the economy is collapsing, the people have no overnight food in their homes, and there is no money in their hands. ”
Wang Zhijun was speechless, "You are Lu Chao's confidant, so naturally you don't want to blame him, but if it weren't for Lu Chao's scheming, Fan Sui's reform might make enemies on all sides, and people would be angry?" Originally, if they were one general and one phase and could work together, Da Qin might still have a chance of life, but Fan Sui was worried about the influence of the Li School, and Lu Chao wanted to go further, and finally got Da Qin to this point, General Wang, Da Qin had already jumped into the cliff and couldn't climb up. It's over, it's all over. ”
"We know that Great Qin has gone over, but we, the people of Great Qin, have to make one last stand." Wang Zhijun stabilized his mind, looked at Wang Jian, and said fiercely: "General Wang, this time the general sent me, just to ask you for a favor, I hope you will read that we are all in the same line of Great Qin, and that your father has fought for Great Qin all his life, and when we, the remnants of the defeated army, launch the final attack on Helan Xiong, you can watch from the wall without moving." That's the only thing we ask of you. ”
Wang Jian looked at the burning fire pond with great interest, "You know this is impossible, I have a request for the Han State now, I am responsible for the millions of people of Xinqin, for your poor thoughts, I want to take advantage of the stability of Xinqin, this is something that cannot be done at all, it is impossible for me to provoke the Han people and give them an excuse to come to me for trouble." So all I can say to you is, I'm sorry! ”
"Wang Jian, you are from Qin!" Wang Zhijun jumped up angrily.
"It used to be, and now I'm from New Qin." Wang Jian raised his head and looked at Wang Zhijun calmly.
With a bang, the hot tea in his hand was splashed on Wang Jian's head and face, "You treacherous and traitor who has forgotten the classics." ”
After a few choking sounds, Wang Jian's personal guards suddenly pulled out their waist knives and forced Wang Zhijun.
"Kill me, take my head and go to Gao Yuan to flatter him!" Wang Zhijun shouted frantically.
Wang Jian stretched out his hand to wipe the tea off his face, looked at the other party, and waved his hand, "You go, tell Wang Changyong, I will not show mercy to my subordinates, if he does not surrender, we will join forces with the Han State and will annihilate him here." (To be continued.) )
