1344. The Last Root of Great Qin

Everyone was stunned, and suddenly felt that what Wei Ran said was very reasonable.

When the Qin State was strong, Wei Ran still had something to gain, but now the Qin State is about to be wiped out, and whoever is in the position of the emperor of the Great Qin Empire is the primary target of the Jin army.

Wei Ran looked at everyone and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the number of people in the court today is not the same as the number of people in the court yesterday!" ”

Everyone was stunned, then looked to the side, and suddenly found that there were many people missing from the court at this time, Wei Ran looked at everyone and said: "These people wanted to defect to the Qin State at the most critical moment of the Great Qin Empire, and they have all been executed by me!" ”

Wei Ran continued: "As for what you say, why do I want to station so many troops next to Xianyang, I am for the final decisive battle, if General Meng, the eight generals, and General Wang Jian are defeated, the life and death of this Great Qin Empire will be in the hands of my Wei Ran!" ”

"I, Wei Ran, will swear to defend Xianyang City, defend Xianyang Palace to the death, and even protect His Majesty the Emperor to the death!" After Wei Ran finished speaking, he walked to the high platform where the emperor was sitting, Yingji was stunned, and just wanted to stand up, but when he saw Wei Ran's eyes, he was silent, and then continued to sit on the emperor's throne.

Wei Ran turned to look at the courtiers, at this time Wei Ran was the real ruler of the Qin State, and Yingji was too weak in front of him.

Wei Ran looked at the ministers: "From today onwards, whoever dares to leave Xianyang City will kill the nine clans and leave no one behind!" ”

"Wenchen wants to think of a strategic plan, and the generals are also ready to sacrifice their lives for the Great Qin Empire!" Wei Ran pulled out the saber at his waist, then looked at everyone and said.

The reason why Wei Ran sent so many troops in Xianyang was for the final decisive battle, Hangu Pass was broken, the Battle of Guanzhong was also defeated, and the last place to defend was Xianyang City.

As for why he didn't have resources during the Battle of Guanzhong, Wang Jian was at war, and the number of armies was very large, and if the defeat was decided, even support would be useless.

If reinforcements were sent, it would only increase losses in vain, so Wei Ran did not send reinforcements, but used Xianyang City as the last barrier.

And what he is pinning on now is to hope that the battle of Lantian will not be lost, if the battle of Lantian is lost, then Xianyang is in danger, and the Xiang and Jin coalition forces want to hold this century-old capital of Great Qin, which is by no means easy.

Of course, Wei Ran also thought about using diplomatic tactics to unite Qi and deal with Jin together, but then Qi shirked and watched without fighting, as for Chu State, then Chu State originally intended to be neutral, but when he saw that the Great Qin Empire was becoming more and more bad, Chu State stood on the side of Jin State and formed an alliance.

Otherwise, how could the Qin State have experienced so many defeats? The purpose of the Chu State was simple, that is, to seize the land of Bashu, which was very close to the territory of the Chu State.

When the Xiang family was confronting Meng Yi and the eight generals, Huang Xie led the army of Chu and was preparing to enter Bashu and seize the Bashu granary.

And the Jin State is in a default state for this, which can be said that the two sides should have reached an agreement, the Chu State wants the land of Bashu, and the Jin State wants to occupy Guanzhong, which is the new foundation of the Great Jin Empire.

Both sides have their own plans, but both sides have plans aimed at the Great Qin Empire, and for the Great Qin Empire, the only savior is the Great Qi Empire that they marry. 2018

But the Great Qi Empire has been waiting and watching, and has no intention of helping, and he has gossiped that Wei Wuji has sent people to conduct diplomacy in the Qi State, sent him a lot of things, and bought off a lot of nobles in the Qi State, so it can be said that the possibility of the Qi State to assist them is very low, and it can be said that the Great Qin Empire wants to avoid this catastrophe, and can only rely on themselves.

Although in the decisive battle of Guanzhong, their Great Qin Empire was defeated and suffered heavy losses, but Wang Jian set up a lot of defensive fortresses, and Wei Wuji wanted to cross these fortresses and come directly to Xianyang City, which would take time.

And Wei Ranjue's here Wang Jian may not be able to defeat Wei Wuji, after all, Wang Jian still has cavalry, infantry, crossbowmen, and many fortifications in his hands, as long as he doesn't make any mistakes and sticks to it for a while, Wei Ranjue can win.

Because he knew that at this time, the Jin State attacked them and the Qin State was the strength of the whole country, and the national strength was exhausted, if the fight continued, the time was longer, and the Jin State was very likely to have a civil uprising.

Therefore, Wei Ran still hopes that Wang Jian can win, as for the Chu State and the Xiang family, in Wei Ran's eyes, they are not afraid.

The Xiang family just has a powerful reckless man, and the Chu State is a wall grass, of course, before this, he wants to prevent the Chu State from seizing the land of Bashu.

Chu really let Chu seize the land of Bashu, for Qin this is a matter that shakes Qin, because the land of Bashu is gone, even if this catastrophe passes, then Qin will not be a big country.

Therefore, he couldn't let the Chu State seize the land of Bashu in a short time, what he thought was not to be afraid, that was when the Chu State did not seize the land of Bashu.

The state of Chu did not seize the land of Bashu, and the opponent of the state of Qin was only the state of Jin, or only Wei Wuji.

Wei Ran has always been jealous of Wei Wuji, but although Wei Wuji is famous, he is not in power, but now Wei Ying has lost the hegemony of Wei, and he has also lost a lot of land.

Yingji looked at Wei Ran and asked, "Uncle, what should we do now, we can't just wait for the battle report, we have to do something, right?" ”

Ying Ji is no longer seizing power with Wei Ran at this time, he knows that if Wei Ran leaves, then no one in the Great Qin Empire will be able to suppress the field, and he is still too young, and it will take a few years to control the field.

They are in Xianyang, the last foundation of the Qin State, they have money and an army, what should they do to change this situation.

But he didn't decide these things on his own, because he was afraid that if he decided this matter without authorization, it would lead the Qin State into a land of no return.

Wei Ran glanced at Yingji and said: "Xianyang is the last foundation of the Qin State, if we draw out the army and Wang Jian is defeated, when Wei Wuji's army is under Xianyang City, how should we defend it?" ”

"You have to remember this war, we won, we just need to delay, the Jin State's offensive can't last long, as long as we can hold out until they are powerless to attack and can only negotiate with us, we will win!" Wei Ran looked at Yingji and said.

"Our Xianyang is the last foundation of the Great Qin Empire, the last fortress, whether it is grain and grass, or property, we can hold on for ten years!" Wei Ran looked at Yingji and said.

"And the Jin State has invaded my Great Qin, the country has been exhausted, the young manpower has been mobilized, and the strategic reserves have been consumed, and in these years, because they are at war with us, the domestic grain and grass cannot be effectively replenished!"
