Chapter 179: King Qin's Wrath

The battle that took place in the Martial Saint Gate ended very quickly. There was little impact on the lives of the people of Dragon City. If you borrow the words that Zhao Wang Chu Jiangmian said to all the important ministers of the royal court present after everything is over, it means that there is no delay in everyone's dinner! Now that you have finished observing the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Zhao army, you can go home with peace of mind and take a good rest.

These civil and military ministers, headed by Minister of State Fei Yi, walked down the big bell tower with mixed emotions. While the mood is uplifted, the same thoughts invariably come to mind.

"Choosing to be an opponent with King Zhao, I'm afraid I'll have nightmares all the time!"

Naturally, the dead don't have to have nightmares. And the living enemy will certainly be difficult to avoid. For example, the general Wang Jian who staggered away under the strict supervision of the spies of the Thousand Machines Pavilion.

Fei Yi and several veterans glanced at each other, and couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh. though each is its master, and is an enemy of one another. But they still felt sad for this famous general of the Qin State. I believe that at this moment, Wang Jian must have regretted it very much, why didn't he die in front of Pingling Pass in the first place?

Although Chu Jiangmian did not humiliate him in any way. But he easily shattered his pride as a general! In this way, in front of him, he killed all the 3,000 Qin troops, including Wang Jian's nephew Wang Xin.

"The king, this is a punishment! Even if Wang Jian returns to Qin State in the future to continue to lead the troops to fight, I am afraid that he already has a demon in his heart. He wants to fight against Zhao Jun with that fearless edge again, and there is no longer any possibility...... For a famous general, full of hatred or fear, he will never be able to defeat the opponent who brought him all this! ”

Several others felt the same way. And what rose was a deeper admiration for the young King Zhao. With merciless means, he cleanly killed all three thousand incoming Qin troops, which looked very brutal on the surface. But this small battle played a huge role. This fully demonstrates the ability of Zhao Wang Chu Jiangmian to control the overall situation without moving. This made all his subjects who were already loyal to him feel extremely reassured.

Although many people in Dragon City already knew that there was a war on the side of the Martial Saint Gate, they did not know the specific situation. Because, before dawn came the next day, the entire battlefield had been cleaned. Except for faint traces of blood that can be seen in some places, there are hardly any traces of war that are too obvious.

Perhaps, the only surprising thing is that many more bodies are said to have been buried in mass graves outside the city. These Qin soldiers who died in battle in other countries, their souls will never return to their hometown.

The Qin general who instigated this attack had his head cut off and sent to a distant place by the dragoons. At the same time, there was also a message from Zhao Wang Chu Jiangmian.

"Great King, the envoy of the Qin State and that prince have been away for so long, I'm afraid they won't be able to catch up, right?"

Shangfu Zizhong and several other ministers stood respectfully at the door of the hall, looking at the high-spirited young King Zhao. At this moment, in their eyes, even if he still has injuries on his body, he looks so heroic and extraordinary, and his bearing is heartbreaking.

Chu Jiangmian secretly bared his teeth. In fact, he really wants to lie down and sleep well for a day and a night now, and he has been spinning around recently, and he is really tired. But in front of his ministers, King Zhao's tall image has to be maintained at all times!

"The people of Qin can't get out of Wutong Pass. There will be someone there to remind them...... The gift to the King of Qin needs to be brought back by them. ”

"The king has no last resort, and he is really admired by the ministers! Hehe! I just got the news that Lan Lingjun of Qi has already set off for Zhao again. It is said that the queen specially sent him this time, but he did not know that there was any important matter to discuss. Does the king have any special instructions? ”

Zizhong smiled and asked for instructions. He knew very well in his heart that since Chu Jiangmian had handed over all the matters related to the Qi State to them, then he had to handle it properly. As for the rest, whether it was the war with the Qin State or the upcoming confrontation with the Yan, Wei and other princes, he did not need to participate too much.

Chu Jiangmian didn't think of anything else. The people of Qi who had already tasted the sweetness became extremely eager, and these were already expected by him. The long-established Empress Qi would certainly understand better than anyone the benefits of a closer relationship with the Zhao State.

"These things are up to the doctor. Except for those that are really difficult to decide, there is no need to ask for advice on the others. ”

Chu Jiangmian hurriedly sent away these ministers in charge of the economy in a perfunctory manner. It's hard to have a moment of leisure, it's really head-catching! After leaving for a day and a night, he still remembered the recovery of Murong Qiancheng's wounds in his heart. I don't have the time to listen to them nagging here!

It's just that even Chu Jiangmian, who is in control of everything, probably didn't expect that Lanlingjun, who came in accordance with Queen Qi's saltless will, not only brought him more cooperation intentions this time, but also another huge "surprise"!

Wutong Pass, hundreds of miles away from Dragon City, Yun Peng, a general of the Zhao State stationed here, intercepted the Qin State delegation with strong means. Without explaining a word to them, he imprisoned them all.

Yan Cong, the secretary of the Qin State, and Nie Yunfeng, the prince of the Qin State, who ran here with the members of the mission in one go, looked at each other and knew that something was wrong. Looking at General Zhao Guo, who was looking at them with a cold gaze. Yan Liang roared angrily.

"Who gave you the power to intercept the princes' envoys at will? How unreasonable! Do you want to make money and kill yourself? ”

The Wutong guard stood with Yun Peng on his sword, glanced at the bluffing minister of the Qin State, and he replied arrogantly.

"King Zhao has an order, let you wait here. Don't worry, it won't be hard for you. ”

"King Zhao? So when will we be allowed to leave? ”

Nie Yunfeng frowned, and gestured with his eyes to Yan Cong not to be angry. With these reckless guys in the army, I can't tell the truth.

"Don't be impatient, it won't be too long! King Zhao's new order will come soon, and he will naturally let you go when the time comes. ”

Nie Yunfeng and Yan Cong looked at the hostile Zhao State sergeants, and had no choice but to obey their orders, waiting at Wutong Pass with anxiety. And General Zhao, who looked very arrogant, did not lie to them, and sure enough, just in the afternoon, a small group of flying horses arrived from Dragon City.

Another quarter of an hour later, the gate of Wutong was opened, and the Qin delegation continued westward. It's just that now everyone's mood from top to bottom has been extremely depressed.

"Childe! I regret not listening to your persuasion, and I have buried the lives of General Wang Xin and 3,000 warriors in vain! It's all my fault...... What face did the old man have to go back to meet the King of Qin!? ”

After putting the human head back into the wooden box that he had been holding in his hand, Yan Cong, who was full of grief and anger, looked up to the sky and sighed, and then pulled out his sword and was about to kill himself.

Thanks to Nie Yunfeng's quick eyes, seeing that the situation was not good, he snatched the sword. He looked at the tearful Lord Shangqing, and his heart was also very sad.

"None of that has to be said. We can only hurry back to Feng'an and report the actual situation of Zhao to our father...... Qin and Zhao are already incompatible, and the big war is imminent, and it is not far off. When the time comes, we will contribute our own strength to destroy the Zhao State, and be ashamed of it! ”

Two days later, they returned to Qin with a heavy heart. King Qin personally listened to Shangqing Yan Cong's cry in front of the civil and military ministers in the main hall. This heroic character, who has always been moody, can't help but be a little out of shape.

"Which of you will tell me, where did that young man learn these skills? In so many years of intelligence, hasn't he always said that he is a gentleman? Originally, I thought that with Chu Lie's death, we finally reduced one of the most powerful enemies. But now...... Qin State lost his troops in front of his son, and was humiliated repeatedly! Even the national teacher Wu Pingjun personally went out to return in vain! As for the two sons of the lonely king, they were defeated at his hands one after another. Hehe! Such a powerful character, you tell me that he is a gentleman who does not learn and has no skills? ”

Everyone in the hall bowed their heads, and there was an embarrassing silence. No one here is a fool. Everyone could hear the anger in King Qin's tone. At this time, if one of the answers is wrong, it is likely to incur the wrath of thunder. The dragon has reverse scales, and if you touch it, you will die! Don't look at the appearance of this Qin King on weekdays, but if he accidentally touches his moldy head and kills people and raids his house, it is just a matter of one sentence!

And Nie Yunfeng, the son who was standing not far from King Qin, was ashamed and embarrassed when he heard his father mention him. Fortunately, he was not alone in the hands of Chu Jiangmian. Didn't even the third brother, who was most valued by his father, suffer a big loss? It's just that he secretly glanced around, but he didn't find Nie Wushuang's shadow, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, I don't know why he didn't come to such an important royal court meeting.

"My lord, it's all my responsibility. All along, the Hook Annihilation Department had underestimated that young man's ability to cause such a big loss to the Qin State. I am willing to accept the king's chastance! ”

Wei Wuzi, who had just returned, stood up and calmly faced the anger of King Qin. No matter from which point of view, he, who was detached and single-handedly planned the strategy of the Five Kingdoms to attack Zhao, had an unshirkable responsibility for the defeat of the Qin army. What's more, perhaps it was precisely because he went to the Nine Elements Mountain to assassinate Chu Jiangmian that he incurred more serious revenge from the other party.

King Qin Nie Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, and his heart was undecided. As his right-hand man, Wei Wuzi took the trouble this time and went to Zhao in person, although he did not achieve full success, he could not be punished casually.

"King! This time, the Qin State has suffered several setbacks against Zhao, and the biggest responsibility is not on Wu Pingjun, but on the arrogance of the soldiers and their refusal to use their lives! The old minister implored the king, strict discipline, and all arms for war! ”

Some people were impassioned and raised their arms.
