Chapter 853: Fifty Years of Rise and Fall to the Full
The most glorious moment of Wang Ben's life was the battle to destroy Wei in the 22nd year of Qin Shi Huang.
He was only in his forties at that time, and he was heroic, and was called "General Xiao Wang". The 200,000 army swept through the Wei land, and surrounded the great beams, commanded the banner to point, broke the gap, and flooded the city with water!
But with an order, General Xiao Wang, who could make hundreds of thousands of people in Daliang die in the belly of the fish, issued a special military order in order to protect the grave of a Wei people:
"Those who dare to go to the Lingjun Ridge for fifty steps and pick wood, will not be forgiven!"
Wang Ben did this to win the hearts of Wei Shi's people, but after many years, when he was terminally ill, he was half asleep and half awake, but he dreamed that he went to Wei Wuji's tomb to worship......
In front of the tomb of the prince, there is an old maid guarding, probably the former concubine of Xinling Jun, offering a cup of wine every day, sweeping the tomb, Wang Ben asked the old woman of the Wei people at that time, and the old woman only replied:
"Childe said, when you are drunk, you can't hear it......"
"Can't hear anything?" Wang Ben was a little curious.
The old woman of the Wei people pointed to the Liang in the distance: "I can't hear the sound of the collapse of Liang City!" ”
Although there were sighs at the time, I didn't feel it deeply, and I still don't ......
"Wang Ben now understands why Xinlingjun has been drinking with guests all day long after losing the trust of King Wei, drinking alcohol, getting close to women, regardless of his body, and drinking happily for four years......
is not only disappointed, but also despair to see that Wei will eventually fall!
"Wei Wuji is deliberately breaking his body to let himself die early, so as not to see the moment when the Wei Kingdom is destroyed!"
Wang Ben has an incomparable understanding of Xinlingjun's state of mind!
"I should also be one step ahead of the First Emperor."
"Why did you live a few years longer to watch the walls of the building I helped build with my own hands collapse, and the beams and pillars will be shattered and will be reduced to rubble?"
How glorious it once was.
How sad it is now!
muttering like this, Wang Ben opened his cloudy eyes, and there were guards wiping tears on the left and right, and one person walked to his couch on his knees, and said: "It's all to blame on the subordinates, it was the subordinates who made the Taiwei angry like this." ”
"Gantang, don't feel sorry for yourself."
Wang Ben sighed: "Fortunately, you dissuaded it in time, so that the old man could not make the trip, and avoided pushing Daqin into the abyss with your own hands." ”
Regardless of whether it is right or wrong, even if Wang Ben wants to do it, he can't do it now.
After realizing that the fierce medicine of the military advice might hasten the fall of Sheji, he suddenly despaired, his condition worsened, and he could barely board the car a few days ago, but now he can't even get off the bed, let alone go back to Xianyang, and he can't go ten miles away.
From the whispers of the doctors, Wang Ben knew that he had few days to live.
"I wanted to do my best for the first emperor, put down the rebellion, recover the county, and rejuvenate the community; Nai Tianyi is like this, I will die. ”
"That's fine, the old man should have died a long time ago, and if he leaves at this moment, he can be like Wei Wuji, without seeing the scene of Kou entering Xianyang and elk swimming in the court."
But in the end, he still couldn't let go, so Wang Ben began to tell his last words.
"If I die, the three armies will have no owner, and Heifu will take the opportunity to go north, this thief is cunning and good soldiers, and the generals and captains are invincible. Rather than the hundreds of thousands of troops captured by him at that time, it is better to give up Nanyang directly and withdraw to Guanzhong, Sima Ying can be the main general, Gan Tang as the assistant, and preside over the withdrawal of troops. ”
Temporarily abandoning the land outside the gate and shrinking the battle line, this is the only way that Wang Ben can think of, so that the army will not collapse and Qin can continue.
"The traitors in the DPRK and China must also be eliminated!"
Wang Ben gritted his teeth and said to Gan Tang and the others: "Your Majesty is soft-hearted, you will not punish Zhao Gao, you will definitely try to make Wang Li Chen Qi's interests, at least force Your Majesty, send Zhao Gao to guard the mausoleum for the first emperor, and wait for him to go on the road, and then I will kill him by guarding the door!" ”
"No!"
At this time, Gan Tang came up to him and whispered, "Does the Taiwei have any words for General Xiao Wang?" ”
He was referring to Wang Li.
Wang Ben was silent for a while, and sighed: "A generation has a generation's life, my father swept through the six countries, and I was fortunate to see the first emperor reigning in the world, in front of the car and behind the horse, conquering the princes, but also seeing the sudden arrival of the season, the sky and the earth collapsed ......"
"I don't care about it, Wang Li, as the Marquis of Wucheng, must take over this mess......"
Does the Marquis of Tongwu know his son, with his ability, ability to turn the tide? I'm afraid it's difficult, maybe I'll have to put the entire clan in.
But precisely because he understands Wang Li, Wang Ben understands better that Wang Li will never bow to Heifu.
"Do your best, send your two sons to the Western Regions as early as possible to vote for Li Xin, although Li Xin will resist and not return, he should protect them and leave a little blood for the Wang family......"
At this time, the general Sima Ying had arrived, and he bowed in front of Wang Ben's couch, and Wang Ben trembled and handed over the seal ribbon and tiger talisman and axe to him, and said in a weak voice:
"After I die, block the news, don't mourn, put my body on the car, and don't let the three armies know about it. From Wancheng to Wuguan, you must pass Danyang, the rebels have occupied the south of Danyang, so you must retreat slowly, not in a hurry. ”
"But if the news of the withdrawal can't be concealed from the south, you can let the rear village go first, and then slowly retreat one battalion after another. If Heifu sends someone to chase after him, you can form a formation by the Danshui River, beat the drums, and fight back with my banner. Heifu has always been suspicious, he will think that I have cheated to death, and the generals will not dare to chase deeply, and the army can smoothly withdraw from Nanyang, return to Wuguan, and reserve a little seed of revival for Daqin......"
After saying these words, Wang Ben was so tired that he rested for a while and continued:
"I'm not worried about the Wuguan garrison, and there is no problem with Chenggao, even if you can't hold Sanchuan, there is still Hangu Pass. I'm most worried about two places. ”
Sima Ying asked, "Where?" ”
Wang Ben said: "Hanzhong, Hedong!" ”
"Hanzhong lives in Qin's Kun, which is the Gen of Shu, even high and deep, and it is a barrier in Guanzhong. With the current situation, Hanzhong may be difficult to hold, the defenders should burn the plank road and retreat, there is no plank road, even if there is Hanzhong in the north, it is difficult for Heifu to cross the Nanshan and watch Xianyang. However, the rest of the roads should also be guarded by the faithful and elite soldiers, and they must not be smuggled out. ”
"As for Hedong, the control of the Guanhe River, the mountains and rivers will meet, and the so-called 'solidity of mountains and rivers' by Wei Wuhou is also. Pusaka is an important town, it is a shortcut to enter Guanzhong, Zhao Gao's brother Zhao became the lieutenant of Hedong County, I don't worry, I have to change someone......"
Finally, Wang Ben still has a testament to play Hu Hai.
"The land of the four stops in the pass, Cuihan is the plug, known as the danger of one hundred and two, even if it is a mediocre lord and a mediocre minister, it is enough to refuse to defend himself, His Majesty is not as good as the first emperor, and he has done the wrong thing and killed the wrong person, but as long as he can correct the past, he will learn from the law and be a partial lord, it is enough."
"Shang took six hundred sacrifices and died in Qizhou, a hundred miles; The Six Kingdoms were ordered by the Eight Thousand Miles of Zhao, Wei, Qi, Chu, Han, and Yan, and were ordered by the Qin of the Thousand Miles. This is not overnight, Guanzhong is in the upper reaches of the world, occupies a favorable location, and first keeps the land of a state, lightly distributes the meager endowment, and changes with the people, so as to wait for future generations to revitalize it again. ”
The aftermath is arranged one by one, but in the final analysis, even if there are mountains and rivers in the pass, it is still the same sentence:
"It's not in danger in Germany!"
If Hu Hai still does not cultivate virtue and politics, and acts recklessly, he will not say that in the land of Guanzhong, even if the people in the boat are all enemy countries!
"It's probably useless to do so much for old decay......
The more he thought about it, the more desperate he became, Wang Ben fainted again, and by the end of the night, Fang Su was a little more energetic.
Wang Benling supported him left and right, took the safety car, climbed the city wall of Wancheng, and watched the lights of each camp from a distance, and the smoke billowing from the stove, although the situation was not good, but the soldiers of the three armies were still relatively optimistic - because they knew that they were led by the invincible Tongwu Hou!
This is Wang Ben's extremely familiar military life, which is more familiar than Pinyang's home.
Wang Ben remembered his father who had taken him into the barracks for the first time.
At that time, General Xiao Wang looked at his father with reverence and asked General Wang a question:
"What is a general?"
Wang Jian handed him a sword back: "General, it is the sword in the king's hand." ”
"In the troubled times, no matter where the king is pointing, I have to be ordered to give up, and the enemy will be broken and then return, and the day the teacher will come out. There is the glory of death, but there is no shame of life! ”
Wang Ben tried to take the sword, but his father smiled again and took it back.
"General, but also the barrier of the country, a generation has a generation's career, and so on for the father to sweep the king to establish the country, when the world is governed, you also have a place to use, that is to guard the border and protect the people, the warriors, the dry city of the country!"
Thirty years have been like a dream, and General Xiao Wang of that year has become a "General Wang".
Recalling the past, Wang Ben looked up to the sky and sighed:
"Father."
"I'm incompetent after all."
"You can't sweep away the traitors outside, you can't purge the Qing Dynasty on the inside, and you can't have high hopes for the emperor......"
"I can only be like my father, be the sword in the hands of the First Emperor, and kill the Six Kingdoms."
"But it can't be done in the end."
"The ...... of the barriers to protect Huhai and Daqin Sheji"
Wang Ben was really unlucky, seeing him rise a tall building, seeing him feasting guests, seeing his building collapse, he really saw the rise and fall of fifty years!
As soon as he thought of this, sorrow came from it, Wang Ben couldn't help but burst into tears, he was in the car, raised his heavy arms, and secretly wiped his tears from the soldiers in the military camp in the distance and the staff members in the distance.
And the empire that he has been running around all his life, made a move.
"Wang Ben, you are going to abandon the kings and go away......"
The pale head hung down, and the hand fell with it, but it never lifted again......
In the first year of the second year, on the tenth day of the third month of the summer calendar, Wang Ben was in Wancheng!
The walls of the empire, collapsed!
……
At the same time, Xiangyang, which is not far from Wancheng, Heifu did not see the star falling, let alone any signs, this evening was no different from the ordinary warm afternoon of Yangchun.
"Did I hear me right?"
After receiving the report from Ji Ying, the "Captain of the Guardian Army", Heifu stopped the chopsticks in his hand, and stuffed the rice grains stuck to his beard into his mouth, revealing a strange smile.
"Lees's ...... Emissary? ”
