The civil officials advised one after another and fell to their knees.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yuan took a deep breath, and then stepped forward in person and helped Li Minggui and the others: "Come, get up." ”

I thought that the main guild was angry, but I didn't expect it to be like this, Li Minggui was obviously a little at a loss: "Lord...... Lord ......"

"In this meeting, you can speak freely, and there is a dispute between civil and military, which is a good thing."

Xiao Yuan's voice was gentle and continued:

"But this official told you that this war is inevitable, and in the world of great contention, if Qin does not fight, he will die!"

As he spoke, he personally pulled up the civil officials kneeling on the ground one after another, straightened their official uniforms, and continued: "You are all the county guards of the same place, no one knows the place better than you, no one knows the local food and taxes better than you, this official needs your help, my Qin army soldiers, without you, I can't go to the battlefield!" ”

"Therefore, your responsibility lies in the community and the safety of Qindi."

Regardless of the size of the official position, he said that everyone was very important, and after listening to the civil officials who asked for peace, they couldn't help but be greatly moved, and some people said: "Lord, we are all asking for peace, aren't you angry......

"Of course I'm angry." Xiao Yuan Zhengse said: "But this official understands in his heart that you are trying your best to make peace, not because you are greedy for life and afraid of death, but you are worried about Qin the same, but you have different opinions!" ”

"Lord, ......" The civil officials were moved again, and Li Minggui said in a trembling voice: "The lord said this, we are ashamed, and we will do our best to help my Qin army defeat the strong enemy!" ”

"I will do everything I can to help the lord ......"

People said in unison.

Don't underestimate these local officials, they play a huge role in the transportation of grain and grass in various places!

They tried their best to persuade peace before, and among them, those who were greedy for life and afraid of death naturally accounted for the majority, Xiao Yuan knew it in his heart! But he suppressed his anger, calmed down, and said a few words, which had made the civil and military united.

It can also be seen that he has the power of a king.

"Today, I am civil and military in Qindi, work together, and hate the same enemy, why worry about the strong enemy not being broken!"

Xiao Yuan shook his voice, and as he spoke, he also drew out his sword:

"From today onwards, if anyone dares to say a word about land cutting, they will be killed!"

"Whoever it is! If you dare to speak out, you will disturb the hearts of our army, and you will be dealt with by military law! ”

He held the sword in his hand, and was shocked by it, and he was determined to be mighty, and when the left and right civil and military saw this, they also said in unison:

"By the Lord's command—"

"The generals will obey!"

"The last general!" The generals on the left clasped their fists in unison, and the sound of a shock responded.

"Ren Zhao Mu is the former army commander."

"The last general commands!"

"Ren Su Yi is the general of Zhengdong."

"Peng Shuang is a pioneer general."

"Lian Xiao is General Pingdong."

"Xu Hu is the general of the Tiger Guard."

"Goldman Sachs is a former lieutenant general."

"Guan Kui is a partial military captain."

"Zhang Dashan is a former general."

"Shangguan Wenruo joins the army."

"Liu Changqing is the head of the army."

"Liu Yuzhi is the chief promotion officer."

"Li Minggui is the dispatch envoy of Yong'an."

"Zhang Jingrui is the ...... for Longyou's dispatch"

After an appointment, there was already a large number of officials in the hall.

After the military order was issued, Xiao Yuan also said directly: "All departments perform their duties, go down quickly to prepare, and immediately mobilize troops and horses!" ”

"By the Lord's command—"

Just when everyone was about to give a salute and retreat, Xiao Yuan looked at one of them again, stretched out his hand and shouted, "Xia Ping stays." ”

"No!" The latter responded.

After a while, everyone in the hall had already finished walking one after another, and they all went down to prepare for the pre-war events, Xia Ping gave Xiao Yuan a fist salute, and asked tentatively: "What does the lord command?" ”

Xiao Yuan looked at him, and said quietly: "Xia Ping, if this official is not mistaken, in the first battle against Xirong, outside Qingshan City, you killed fourteen enemies, beheaded the enemy's generals, fought bloodily, would rather die than retreat, and broke Xirong, you have made a lot of contributions." ”

"It is an honor for a lifetime to be able to follow the lord in the end!" Xia Ping immediately replied. This person is in the Qin army, and he is on the battlefield, that is a real character who does not want to die, very bloody, and his loyalty to Xiao Yuan is beyond doubt.

When Xiao Yuan heard this, he first smiled, and then said, "But this time, this official has another important task to hand over to you." ”

"But please command, my lord!"

"Ningyang." Xiao Yuan said directly.

"What does the lord mean......" Xia Ping asked in a condensed voice.

Xiao Yuan explained: "The four countries attack Qin, its main force must be in Shanyu Pass, but outside Ningyang, it is the state of Wu, if the Wu army breaks through from Ningyang with 100,000 troops, then the entire territory of our Qin land is in danger, therefore, our army has to defend." ”

"The last general understands, and he is willing to guard Ningyang!" Xia Ping said directly.

Xiao Yuan glanced at him again and said, "But I can only give you 30,000 soldiers, and what you are facing is very likely to be 100,000 elite Wu troops!" ”

With such a gap in strength, I thought that Xia Ping would hesitate, but the latter didn't even think about it, so he directly said in a shocking voice: "30,000 is enough!" If Ningyang loses, the last general will come to see him! ”

"Good!" Seeing him say this, Xiao Yuan was also shocked, and then said with a straight face: "Defend Ningyang for me!" Hold on! You are the first in this battle! ”

"Order!" Xia Ping clenched his fists hard.

After Xiao Yuan's military deployment was completed, as his military order was conveyed to the army, the Qin army immediately set out, except for the 30,000 soldiers who needed to defend Xirong, and some defenses in other places, 100,000 rushed to Shanyuguan, and another 30,000 went to Ningyang, Shudi with Xia Ping.

Although the end of the battle has not yet begun, the battle situation is already very clear, the four-nation coalition army, a total of 400,000 troops, the main force of the Qin army of 100,000, is very likely to face 300,000 enemy troops at Shanyu Pass, and Ningyang, it is possible to face 100,000 Wu troops.

In this battle, on the surface, the disparity between the two sides in terms of military strength and national strength is huge, and they are not favored by the countries under heaven.

Among the kings of the four kingdoms who attacked Qin, it was unanimously agreed that Xiao Yuan, the lord of Qin, was very likely to send an envoy to sue for peace before the war, or cut the land, or lose money, and wag his tail and beg for mercy, but after the news came back, it was the Qin army that was urgently deployed.

Bai Ze.

After listening to the report, the four kings were stunned for a moment, and then the king of Jin sneered and said: "It seems that Lord Qin, he doesn't cry when he doesn't see the coffin, in the face of my division of the four kingdoms, he dares to fight!" ”

The other three kings also shook their heads slightly.

King Huan said: "Lord Qin, do you think that his Qin army can defeat my four kingdoms?" ”

"Originally, I gave him time to send an envoy to sue for peace, but I didn't see the envoy, so if that's the case, then I'll take the land myself." King Wu said.

"Yes." King Jin nodded and said: "According to the military report, the Lord of Qin went to Ningyang with 30,000 troops, and another 100,000 were stationed at Shanyu Pass. ”

"It's fine." King Wu did not refuse, because in his opinion, with 100,000 Wu troops, it would be easy to break Ningyang, and when the time came, he could still enter Shu first and compete for territory.
