Chapter 385: Qin State Cause (Third Update)
The news that the prince of Chu State entered Handan did not receive much attention in the palace of Xianyang.
However, when Zhao eliminated the Linhu people in Henan and expanded the land for thousands of miles, the Qin State would definitely not be indifferent.
Qin Wangji sat on the top, his face full of unhappy expressions.
"Zhao Dan's ambition as a wolf son, and now he has won the land of Henan, what should he do?"
As soon as Qin Wangji's question came out, there was silence in the hall.
Qin's vigilance against Zhao has already reached its peak, and any move of Zhao has been treated by Qin as if it were a great enemy, not to mention this kind of expansion of territory.
When he received the news that Zhao planned to send troops to recruit Lin Hu, Qin Wangji's heart was still somewhat happy.
After all, Lin Hu is the neighbor in the north of the Qin State, if the Lin Hu people were really that weak, they would have been eaten by Qin Wangji with bones and skin like Yiqu.
What's more, the Lin Hu people still have allies like the Yue Clan, so Qin Wangji thinks that even if the Zhao State is strong, the Lin Hu people should be able to hold out for a year and a half with the support of the Qin State and the Yue Clan, and how much will the national strength of the Zhao people be consumed, right?
But it was just a big battle, and Zhao's army slapped Qin Wangji hard with practical actions.
Yes, in just one big battle, Lin Hu was basically destined to become history like Yiqu.
As soon as he thought of this, Qin Wangji's chest ached faintly.
Knowing that the Lin Hu people were such a weak chicken, Qin Wangji had already taken down the land of Henan.
So seeing the silence in the main hall, Qin Wangji couldn't help but speak: "Then the Lin Hu people are really so vulnerable? β
The person who answered Qin Wangji's words was Wang Di, who had just been promoted to the rank of lieutenant of the Qin State.
"Back to the king, according to the information collected by the minister and the battle with the Linhu people all the time, the Linhu people are really not weak. Lin Hu has been on the border for many years, and the front line of the Great Wall has to fight hard to force it back. β
Many people think that the Great Wall was built by Qin Shi Huang, which is completely wrong.
What Qin Shi Huang did was to connect the Great Wall of Qin, the Great Wall of Zhao and the Great Wall of Yan into a more three-dimensional, attackable and defending, and truly Great Wall.
The reason why there is the Great Wall of Qin is to deal with the Koubian of the nomadic peoples such as Linhu and Yiqu.
After the destruction of Yiqu, Lin Hu was the biggest border trouble in the north of Qin, and Hu riding Koubian was still a problem that Qin had to face every year.
No way, who says that compared with the farming people, the nomads are as poor as Hanako?
What if you are poor, but you don't know how to get out of poverty by self-reliance, and you have a neighbor who looks richer than you?
Grab it!
Therefore, it is not that the Great Qin Empire has never fought against the Linhu people, nor is it that it does not understand the combat effectiveness of the Linhu people.
Qin Wangji just wanted to make sure that he wasn't old and confused.
He really wasn't old and foolish.
Wang's answer didn't give him a chance to be confused.
Since the Linhu people are not weak, then it is obvious that the answer to why the Linhu people are so brittle is, of course, only-
Zhao Guoren is too strong.
At this moment, Qin Wangji really hoped from the bottom of his heart that he was indeed an old fool.
Qin Wangji took a deep breath, looked around the hall and asked in a deep voice, "So now the widow can only watch the Zhao State annex Henan, but there is nothing to be done?" β
The hall was still silent.
Plan?
What can be done?
Will you have another fight with Zhao Guoren?
Looking at the ministers who bowed their heads like ostriches, Qin Wangji's heart suddenly missed Fan Sui very much.
Even if Fan Sui is not in a thousand ways, as long as Qin Wangji needs someone to come up with an idea, Fan Sui will definitely have an idea.
Whether the idea is good or bad, whether it will work out in the end or not, but the important thing is that he has it.
Yes and no, those are two completely different things.
Just when the anger in Qin Wangji's heart was about to erupt like an active volcano, someone finally spoke.
"The king, in the opinion of the ministers, even the matter of attacking Zhao can be launched!"
It was none other than Cai Ze, the current Prime Minister of the Qin State.
Zhao Dan's crossing changed history, and also changed the fate of Gang Chengjun, who had to go down in embarrassment after only sitting in the position of Qin State Prime Minister for a few months.
As a courtier, Cai Ze still has the most basic consciousness.
As the head of the hundred officials, when the king needs to come up with an idea, Cai Ze has to give an idea.
Qin Wangji stared at Cai Ze viciously, as if he was staring at Zhao Dan.
"If you launch it now, will it be successful?"
Cai Ze let out a sigh of relief, shook his head and said, "Whether it will be successful or not, it is still a matter of five or five." β
Qin Wangji said angrily: "The widow doesn't need any five or five numbers, what the widow needs is to let Zhao Dan Xiao'er be ruined, so that Zhao Guo will be in a state of collapse from now on!" β
Cai Ze Zhengse said: "What the king needs now is a war against Zhao State!" β
Qin Wangji's eyes widened and he glared angrily at Cai Ze.
The ministers in the main hall were worried, and many people were secretly worried that Qin Wangji would order someone to drag Cai Ze out and cut off his head in the next moment......
To be honest, Qin Wangji hadn't been so fierce for a long time.
Cai Ze stood respectfully, and did not say anything to the gaze cast by Qin Wangji.
After a long time, Qin Wangji spoke again.
"Now, if you contact the rest of the nations, how many countries are willing to send troops with the widows?"
Cai Ze said: "Qi and Wei should send troops together, Han Wangran is still hesitating, but soon it will be the day when the grandson Chu and the Korean princess will marry, and South Korea should also fight for it, and the worst will not be the enemy of Great Qin." β
Qin Wangji pondered for a moment, and then asked, "How are the Chu States and Yan States doing?" β
Cai Ze said: "The kings of the two countries have avoided the envoys, and there is no conclusion yet. β
Qin Wangji snorted heavily, and said coldly: "Since this is the case, then find a way to let the envoy see the Empress Dowager of Yan and Chu Wangyuan!" β
Cai Ze's face was embarrassed, and he said: "King, the minister has already ordered people to try many ways in this matter, but it has been fruitless. In the opinion of the ministers, the king might as well wait for a try......"
As soon as Cai Ze's words came out, strange looks appeared on the faces of many Qin ministers in the main hall, and even the expressions of several people were as if they had been stung by a scorpion.
"Wait?" Qin Wangji snorted when he heard this, but he didn't say anything, just waved his hand with an unhappy face: "Quickly send an envoy to the Wei State and Qi State to inform them of the decision that the outnumbered people are ready to jointly send troops to attack Zhao!" As soon as the preparation of food, grass and armaments will begin from now on, the county soldiers will not be requisitioned for the time being, but the county lieutenants must be ordered to gather them together and strengthen training! β
"Whoa!"
After a while, all the ministers dispersed and left, and only Qin Wangji sat quietly in the empty hall, as if waiting for something.
An old eunuch hurriedly walked into the main hall, bowed down and said, "King, it's time to move to dinner." β
This old eunuch is Qin Wangji's personal eunuch, who has served Qin Wangji for decades, and now he is already full of gray hair.
Except for the occasion of such an important meeting, the existence of this old eunuch can be seen by Qin Wangji's side at any other time, including but not limited to bathing, going to the toilet, going out, and even Dunlun.
Over the past few decades, almost everyone has become accustomed to the existence of this old eunuch, and many times even this old eunuch standing behind Qin Wangji has been automatically ignored by others.
Qin Wangji took a deep breath and stood up.
"Then let's go."
Xianyang Palace was so large that it required a horse-drawn carriage to be able to move around the palace.
When a king sits on a carriage, the ubiquitous writer is of course unlikely to hear any of Qin Wangji's words.
So Qin Wangji said to the old eunuch standing next to the car: "The widow wants the widow's envoy to meet the Empress Dowager Yan and Chu Wangyuan, can this matter be done?" β
The old eunuch stood there quietly, his body undulating with the rolling of the wheels, his lips obviously not moving at all, but there was a sound.
"It's not difficult to return to the king."
Qin Wangji said again: "If the widow wants to let the Yan State and the Chu State follow the widow to attack Zhao, how sure are they?" β
"Back to the king, Yan Guo may be able to do it, but there are many grudges between Chu Wangyuan and Daqin...... Neither of these things can be done. β
Qin Wangji slapped the deputy of the carriage seat beside him with a very irritable slap, and this slap was so hard that the canopy above his head trembled because of it.
"No matter what method you use, in short, Yan State and Chu State must stand on the side of the widow, at least they can't stand with Zhao Dan!"
The old eunuch was silent.
It wasn't until Qin Wangji's carriage was about to stop that the old eunuch spoke again: "As for the Yan Kingdom, the ministers can do their best." But the state of Chu ...... Rooms are required. β
Intermittently, spy.
Qin Wangji asked, "Where?" β
"Inma."
Because of the intermediary, because of the villagers to use it.
Qin Wangji frowned and said, "Why not death?" β
"There is no influence of this cause in death."
Qin Wangji said angrily: "Because the room is unreliable! β
"But at the king's request, only this cause can do it."
Qin Wangji stared at the old eunuch angrily, eager to eat the old eunuch with his bones.
The old eunuch stood there quietly, and the whole person seemed to be one with the carriage.
The carriage slowly stopped.
Qin Wangji stood up, and suddenly slapped the old eunuch in the face, fanning the old eunuch directly off the carriage and falling heavily to the ground.
The old eunuch got up silently and crawled in front of Qin Wangji on all fours.
A few drops of blood fell to the ground.
Qin Wangji stepped on the old eunuch's back and got out of the carriage, as if he was still angry, and kicked the old eunuch again, gritting his teeth.
"Because of the time, because of the time, the widow is approved!"
