Chapter 149: How could the Qin State be incomprehensible

"Wu Anjun, where is it?" Qin Wangji saw that Qin envoy walked into the palace alone, but he didn't see Wu Anjun getting up, and asked, "Why didn't he enter the palace with you." ”

The Qin envoy was afraid of saying the wrong thing, so he carefully said, "Wu Anjun is sick. ”

"What did you say?" Qin Wangji was suspicious: "Wu Anjun is sick. ”

"Wu Anjun is sick and can't enter the palace."

"Is he really sick, or is he fake." Qin Wangji deliberately raised his voice and said, "He can't enter the palace, or he doesn't want to enter the palace." Or does he not take the edict of the widow seriously? ”

The Qin envoy was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, Wu Anjun is really sick. ”

Qin Wangji didn't believe that he was really sick, and asked with anger in his eyes: "You go to convey the edict of the widow, Wu Anjun, what do you say." ”

The Qin envoy trembled and said, "Wu Anjun said that it is not appropriate to attack Handan at this time. ”

"Isn't it advisable to attack?" Qin Wangji shrugged his shoulders and said coldly: "Why, he is still angry with the widow." He said that attacking Handan can be broken in one battle. Now he says that he can't attack Handan. Isn't this a slap in the face? ”

Qin envoy said: "Wu Anjun said that we will take Changping and kill 450,000 Zhao soldiers. Zhao Guo Handan is empty, and people's hearts are panicked. We can break it in one battle, and the Zhao State can be destroyed. ”

Qin Wangji said coldly: "Why can't you conquer Handan now?" ”

"Wu Anjun said that Zhao stabilized his morale and was ready to go to war with us. At this time, the conquest of Handan has missed the best opportunity. ”

"The best timing? Joke. Qin Wangji raised his voice and said: "Only when the widow says to fight, can he fight." Only when you say extinguish can you extinguish. That's the perfect time. ”

"Wu Anjun also said..."The Qin envoy glanced at Qin Xiang, but the following words did not come out.

Qin Wangji asked with a cold face, "What else did he say?" ”

"Wu Anjun said that there are many capable generals in the Qin State. He was sick and could not go on the expedition. Ying Hou, Wen Tao Wuluo, is the king's right-hand man, please let Ying Hou go on his behalf. ”

Fan Ju saw that Bai Qi's words were aimed at him, presumably because he offered the King of Qin to negotiate peace with Zhao, which angered Bai Qi. Fan Ju is worthy of experiencing a big scene, and he is not flustered when he encounters something, and said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, Wu Anjun is too much of a minister. ”

Qin Wangji asked, "Wu Anjun recommended you, what do you think?" ”

"The minister's brain power is okay, but the king also knows what the force is." Fan Ju casually said his shortcomings, and said aggrievedly: "Wu Anjun said that Chen Wen Tao Wu Luo is elevating me!" These four words, the minister dare not be. ”

Qin Wangji and Fan Ju have been together for nearly 20 years, don't you know what he is capable of. Wu Anjun's words were ostensibly flattering Fan Ju, but they weren't beating him. Qin Wangji also understands that Wu Anjun's words are even more aimed at him.

Fan Ju understood what Qin Wangji was thinking, and added: "Wu Anjun is the god of war of the Qin State. In terms of military merit and combat effectiveness, who can compare. Wu Anjun dares to say third, who dares to say that it is first and second. ”

"Wu Anjun is angry!" Anger gradually appeared on Qin Wangji's face, "He's a strange widow!" ”

Fan Ju pretended to defend and said, "Your Majesty, Wu Anjun is really sick. Don't overthink it. ”

"Is the widow thinking too much?" Qin Wangji's face became terrifying, "Wu Anjun said when he was angry, but he played this trick with the widow." Could it be that I, Daqin, apart from him, there is no one else who can fight. Could it be that I, Daqin, have nothing to do. ”

Qin Wangji was furious, and frightened these ministers to kneel on the ground.

Qin Wangji looked at the people in the hall and said, "Wu Anjun is unwilling to fight Handan for the widow. Let's talk about it! Who do you think is the right fit? ”

Fan Ju saw that Zhao Changping was killed 450,000 elites, and Handan's defense was weak, so in order to give Prince Qin a favor, he replied: "Your Majesty, the minister recommends the prince." ”

Prince Qin didn't expect Fan Ju to recommend him, he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and thought, "You are trying to hurt me!" ”

"Prince?" Qin Wangji's eyes glanced at his son, "He has a few catties and taels, and the widow doesn't know yet." He went to fight Handan, can he beat it? ”

Fan Ju knew that the crown prince of Qin was not good at force, but he was the person trusted by Qin Wangji and the future prince of Qin. If you knock down Handan, you can stand up. However, Qin Wangji's words could not defeat him. Fan Ju said respectfully: "The king takes the crown prince as the main general, and then sends capable generals to complement each other. Take Handan, effortlessly. ”

"You're asking the prince for credit!" Qin Wangji turned his eyes, looked at Prince Qin, and asked, "What do you think?" ”

"How many pounds and taels the child has, doesn't the king know." Prince Qin politely refused: "The king takes me as his general and goes to attack Handan." The child did not know the art of war, and he never put on armor to go into battle. The child was afraid that he would miss the king's great affairs. ”

"You're self-aware!" Qin Wangji also knew Fan Ju's intentions, but he couldn't be sloppy about the conquest, "Fan Ju, did you hear that?" He didn't have any confidence in himself. The few can hand over hundreds of thousands of troops to him for random command. ”

Fan Ju said steadily: "Your Majesty, let the prince command the army and conquer Handan." This is the best way for the prince to experience and grow. The minister thought that the king could give it a try. ”

Qin Wangji looked at Prince Qin again and asked, "Are you willing?" ”

"Child..."Prince Qin didn't know how to answer. attacked Handan and won, and his position as the crown prince was consolidated. However, if he is defeated, can his position still be as stable as Mount Tai? Wu Anjun said that he couldn't fight Handan, and there must be a reason why he couldn't fight.

If he refused to go on the expedition, Qin Wangji and his courtiers would laugh at him.

Seeing that Prince Qin stopped talking halfway, Qin Wangji asked softly, "Why, you don't dare to conquer Handan." Or are you afraid of death? ”

Prince Qin said: "The child is a boy surnamed Ying, and he is not afraid of death." ”

Qin Wangji saw that his son still had a backbone, and shouted: "When you grow up, you should also go out to practice." You are not even afraid of death, why not lead the army to the battle. ”

Prince Qin's heart tightened, and he carefully said: "The child has not done an inch, because of his identity, he has become the supreme general." If the soldiers are not convinced, it is difficult to work together. The generals who assisted me, and because of my status, they couldn't show their real strength. It's nothing if the children's blood stains the field. However, it caused the military prestige of Daqin to be damaged, and it also involved the soldiers to die. The child became a sinner in the Qin State. ”

Qin Wangji didn't really want him to go to Handan, but it was just to test his courage. A few years ago, his favorite eldest son, who was also the former crown prince of Qin, died. For several years, it didn't let him recover. finally cultivated a successor, and if he conquered Handan, an accident occurred. The black-haired person sends the white-haired person, that kind of taste, it's not comfortable.

Qin Wangji said: "The widow is old and lacks energy. The crown prince was responsible for helping the widow deal with the tedious state affairs. Conquer Handan, don't embarrass him, and leave it to someone who can fight. ”

When Prince Qin heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. That restless heart finally landed.

Fan Ju saw Qin Wangji say this, and instantly understood what Qin Wangji meant in his heart. Fan Ju thought for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty, it's better to let Wang Di go to Handan." ”

"That's right! How did the widow forget him? Qin Wangji said, "Seize the party and expel Pingyuan Jun, he fought beautifully." also fought with Zhao Guo's famous general Lian Po without a win. ”

Fan Ju added: "Wang Di's status in the army is very high, and the king regards him as a general, and he can also convince the soldiers. ”

Qin Wangji saw that there was no suitable candidate around him, so he nodded and said, "Well, attack Handan and hand it over to Wang Ji, and the widow can rest assured." ”

Qin Wangji looked in the crowd, found no trace of Wang Di, and asked, "Wang Ji returned to Xianyang, why didn't he come to the court." ”

Fan Ju reminded: "The king asked the generals who attacked Changping to return to Xianyang to rest and recuperate, and there was no need to go to the court." ”

"Look at the memory of the widow." Qin Wangji said: "The widow is not convinced of the old, and it will not work." How did you forget about it? ”

"Come on, go and pass on the king's entry into the palace."

After a short time, Wang Yi came to the main hall in military uniform, walked closer, and saluted: "Minister, see the king." ”

"No need to be polite." Qin Wangji raised his hand and said, "Give the seat." ”

"Thanks, Your Majesty." Wang Yu returned the salute and sat down.

Qin Wangji asked: "Zhao Wang Xiao'er, bully the widow, and provoke the widow. How do you say. ”

"Hit." Wang Yi landed and said: "Zhao Wangan dares to bully the king and bully the Qin State. The minister was willing to lead the troops, break through Handan, capture the king of Zhao, and come to Xianyang to confess. ”

"Okay." Qin Wangji was deeply satisfied with Wang Di's words and praised: "You are worthy of being a general valued by few people. The widow listened to these words, and his whole body was full of strength. Conquer Handan, and the widow will be handed over to you. ”

Wang Di said loudly: "Minister, take the order." ”

Qin Wangji nodded, expressed his appreciation, and asked, "How many people do you need to conquer Handan?" ”

Wang Yi estimated a little and replied, "At least 400,000." ”

"Four hundred thousand?" When Qin Wangji heard this answer, he was a little dissatisfied.

Seeing this, Fan Ju interjected: "In the first battle of Changping, the elite of Zhao State was lost. The city of Handan is weak and empty, and the monarchs and ministers are panicking. Zuo Shuchang attacked Handan, how could he need 400,000 horses to win? ”

Wang Yi said with a difficult expression: "Our attack on Handan is a battle to destroy the country. The monarchs and ministers of Zhao will definitely work together and fight to the death. Changping Zhao lost 450,000 yuan, but there were still many soldiers in Handan, Daijun, Yunzhong, Yanmen and other places in Zhao State. Without 400,000, the minister was not sure to take Handan. ”

Qin Wangji pondered for a while, and said lightly: "Are you exaggerating the combat power of the Zhao State?" The news that we killed 450,000 Zhao soldiers reached Handan. Zhao Zu, do you still have the guts to fight with us? ”

"Changping, I fought with Zhao Shu. Their force is not weak to the Qin State. Wang Yi saw that the meaning of King Qin's words was to despise the Zhao State, "Our attack on Handan is a battle for the death of the country." The monarchs and ministers of Zhao will fight to the death. The 400,000 mentioned by the minister is the lowest number. The battle of attacking Handan is far more fierce than Changping, and there will be more soldiers. ”

"In the battle of Changping, we won, but it was also a miserable victory. It is also difficult to gather 400,000 soldiers to conquer Handan. "Qin Wang Ji knew that Handan was defeated, and he also died in Zhao State. Zhao Wang Xiao'er, fighting to the death for the country is deserved. However, Zhao Guo was really able to resist the edge of the Qin army. Just after the battle of Changping, 400,000 soldiers were mobilized to attack Handan, which was not a hollowing out of the national capital of the Qin State.

Fan Ju also felt that when Changping was victorious, he sent another 400,000 troops to attack Handan. Wang Ji is not killing chickens with a knife. Seeing Qin Wangji's hesitation, Fan Ju concluded that Wang Ji's expedition to Handan would be difficult to succeed.

Wang Ji also saw Qin Wangji's hesitation, and replied: "Without 400,000 soldiers and ministers, you can't take Handan." ”

Qin Wangji thought for a while, did not show his attitude, and replied: "This matter, let the widow think about it." Wang Di, you step back first. ”

Wang Yi stood up and saluted, "Minister, retire." ”

Qin Wangji saw that Wang Ji exaggerated the combat power of Zhao State, and thought: "Wang Ji oppressed the widows with 400,000 soldiers, maybe he didn't want to fight Handan." It is difficult to attack Handan, and the tragedy is much higher than that of Changping. ”

Fan Ju saw that Wang Yu said this, and he did not approve of attacking Handan, and persuaded: "Your Majesty, we attacked Changping and hurt our vitality. Attacking Handan, it is better to give up for the time being. ”

Qin Wangji remembered that Zhao Wangdan humiliated the envoys, insulted the Qin State, and provoked his majesty. Qin Wangji shouted: "Handan, the widow must fight." ”

Fan Ju saw that he couldn't persuade Qin Wangji's mind back, which was enough to see that Wang Shang was really angered by King Zhao.

Prince Qin said: "Your Majesty, minister, there is a candidate." ”

Qin Wangji asked, "Who?" ”

Prince Qin spit out two words, "Wang Ling." ”

"The Tomb?" Qin Wangji couldn't think of this person in his mind.

Seeing King Qin's eyes, Prince Qin hurriedly said: "Wang Ling followed Wang Ji to seize the party, expelled Pingyuan Jun, and besieged Zhao Shu and Changping with Wu Anjun, and made great contributions. ”

Qin Wangji remembered the name on the military merit book, ranked in the top ten, and asked, "This person, how is the use of soldiers." ”

Fan Ju also remembered that person and replied: "It's not as good as Wu Anjun, but it's on par with Wang Di." ”

Qin Wangji said: "Call him into the palace." ”

After a while, Wang Ling came to the main hall and saluted: "Minister, Wang Ling, see the king." ”

When Qin Wangji saw this person for the first time, he was deeply satisfied, raised his hand and said, "Sit down." ”

"Thanks, Your Majesty." Wang Ling thanked him and sat down.

Qin Wangji asked straight to the point: "How many men and horses do you need to attack Handan?" ”

Wang Ling swallowed mountains and rivers angrily: "150,000 people are enough." ”

"One hundred and fifty thousand?" Qin Wangji was very satisfied with this number, but remembered that Wang Ji needed 400,000 to break Handan, and was a little uneasy, "You can take Handan." ”

Wang Ling was full of confidence, "If you have 150,000 soldiers, you can take Handan." ”

Qin Wangji still asked with some uneasiness: "Our attack on Handan is a battle for the fall of the Zhao State. We sent 150,000 troops, and we were really able to take Handan. ”

"In the first battle of Changping, we killed 450,000 Zhao soldiers. The prestige of Great Qin was introduced to Handan, Zhao State, and Zhao had no will to fight. The monarchs and ministers of Handan, who were afraid of the Qin State, suddenly heard that we had sent troops, and our hearts and galls were broken, and we had already fled. Wang Ling said in high spirits: "We send 150,000 troops, and we will definitely be able to take Handan." ”

"Yes, that's right." Qin Wangji listened to Wang Ling's words, and felt that Wang Ji was too cautious in using troops, and shouted: "The widow will give you 200,000 elites and take Handan." ”

Wang Ling saw that the King of Qin had given him the task of attacking Handan, and said with great joy: "Huh." ”

"Hahaha." Qin Wangji smiled and said, "Who dares to say that my Qin State has no generals? Without Wu Anjun, the widow still took Handan. ”
