Rest for half a night.

In the early morning, when the morning dew sprinkled the grass, the Hexi garrison came with his army.

Gao Zongli, Mu Cangchi, obeyed the order to lead the army to the battle.

Half a day later, he stepped into the Qin State.

At dusk, go back to Xianyang Palace.

Arrange Qingyue, Mengluo, and the two princesses.

bathed and freshened up, changed into a python robe, and accompanied Zhang Lihua, Ruan Chengcheng, and Yuan Muge for dinner.

Taiwei Yin Hong hurriedly entered the palace to report, Taishan hegemony ended, Song Wang turned back to Song, was attacked halfway, seriously injured and fled back to Shangqiu, Shangqiu fell.

The king of Song went into exile in the state of Chu.

Jiang is really still old and spicy, and King Qi acts vigorously and resolutely, not leaving the opponent a chance to breathe.

However, the Song State was not destroyed, and the Song King was in exile, so he would inevitably control the Song army and resist with all his might.

When the king of Chu returned to Shouchun, the king of Song must go to lobby, and it is imperative for the Chu army to enter the Song country and rush to the aid of the Song army.

Qi Chu competed, and a good show was staged.

However, Yin Hong reported that seven or eight days had passed since the incident.

Recently, no secret agents have sent back news, and it is unknown what changes have occurred in the war in the Song Kingdom.

"Captain, what happened?"

Ji Xuanling lay on the desk and asked urgently.

Without the news sent back by the spies, the situation in all directions cannot be at any time, like blind eyes.

"The minister arranged for someone to check, and the spies entered the Wei State and disappeared." Yin Hong reported.

Wei.

It's Wei again.

The frame that attacked and killed him has not yet been answered to the Qin State, and a large number of spies have disappeared in the Wei State.

"Captain, did you find out your eyebrows?"

Yin Hong's face was ashamed, and he shook his head silently.

As a last resort, Ji Xuanling motioned for Yin Hong to retreat.

The Song State has been reduced to a killing field, and the Qi army and the Chu army have fought to the death for the territory of the Song State.

If they could not quickly understand the war in the east, it would be difficult for the Qin monarchs and ministers to make self-preservation strategies.

When I went to Linzi this time, I knew that the King of Wei was hypocritical, the King of Chu was cunning, and the King of Zhao was old and strong.

The kingdoms compete, there is no strong national strength, military strength, even if they are hegemonic, there is still no prince who fears the overlord.

This is the situation of King Qi.

As a last resort, he sent people to Sanjiang City and told Di Zhongtai to inquire about the news in Chu State.

......

Next.

Ji Xuanling summoned Jiuqing, and Xianyang ordered Xun Yong, and Wei Kang, the commander of the forbidden army, to enter the court to discuss the military and political minutes.

After the Spring Festival, it has been several months.

It's rare to return to the palace, and it's long overdue to deal with the backlog of affairs in the imperial court.

Jiuqing entered the hall, bowed down to salute the monarch and ministers, and sat on the ground.

After Shi Jia Taichu reported on the matter of money and grain, Ji Xuanling nodded and asked: "Let's talk about Dakang, Huang Qing, General Gongsun, how is it on the Western Front, and how has the situation in Dakang changed?" ”

Hearing this, the lieutenant in charge of military affairs turned sideways and said: "Your Majesty, last night, Prime Minister Zuo sent a fast horse to send back the news, General Gongsun commanded the Xiaowu army to severely damage the tiger and wolf cavalry commanded by Zhao Shaoqing, General Yang captured Jia and asked, General Ruan controlled Zhao Shaoqing's money and grain.

Zhao Shaoqing has already led the troops to surrender, and within three or five days, the troops will be victorious. ”

"Good!"

Ji Xuanling praised.

He went to Linzi and traveled around Zhao Wei for more than a month, Gongsun Ang and Huang Haoran led the army to fight, and won a great victory all the way, which was expected.

seized the wealth left by Dong Chang and transported it back to Xianyang, but he still couldn't control the joy in his heart.

The gold and silver controlled by Zhao Shaoqing are the taxes paid by the states of Dakang, the money and grain accumulated by the royal family, and the private property of the wealthy families and wealthy merchants in the imperial capital.

There are so many that it is extremely difficult to count.

All of them were transported back to Xianyang, and Qin's financial strength skyrocketed, and the national strength and military strength soared.

"But..."Yin Hong looked hesitant and hesitated.

Ji Xuanling got up, stood beside the dragon case, and asked, "But what?" ”

Yin Hong said: "Dakang Xiliang gradually stabilized, but the south of the Yangtze River, the southwest, the Central Plains, especially the south of the Yangtze River and the southwest, became a pot of porridge. ”

"Oh!"

Ji Xuanling was curious: "Aiqing said carefully." ”

"Ram Yue, Lu Boning is in Longdi, Xiliang is defeated, and he has led his troops to flee to Jiangnan, and he has already gained a firm foothold. The ram launched an attack on the Mu brothers, and had captured two counties, and Lu Boning occupied a city of Zhao Tuo, and was recruiting troops and horses, and the southwest was full of wolves.

In the Jiangnan region, Sun Xun's eldest son, with the assistance of the generals, quickly stabilized the situation in Jiangnan, and was fighting with Zhao Tuo for Tao Ce's territory. In the past, the prosperous Jiangnan was full of wars.

In the Central Plains, Zhao Chen, the emperor of Dakang, borrowed troops from Daqian, and recruited troops and horses, and many small forces nearby, the widows of the old ministers of Dakang, have taken refuge, and the power has expanded rapidly, and has competed with Yuan Ci. ”

"So to speak! Dakang is full of wolf smoke, and war is raging everywhere. ”

The change in the situation in Dakang was worse than he expected, especially when Zhao Chen borrowed troops from Daqian, which was indeed difficult to deal with.

It's not that the Qin army is afraid of the elite of the great cadres.

Inflicting heavy losses on the battlefield will inevitably attract resentment from the big cadres.

Today, the Daqian family is dominant, and the national strength is in full swing, provoking the other party for no reason, and it is clearly boring to find themselves.

If you want to destroy the elite soldiers of the Great Qian, you need to rely on other forces, at least, before the Qin State is not qualified to compete with the Great Qian, you must not provoke the other party.

Yin Hong nodded: "There are more wolves and less meat, and the princes of all walks of life want to expand quickly and stabilize their foundations." If the Qin army enters it, Yuan Ci's subordinates will bear the brunt, and if Yuan Ci is eliminated, it will change the situation in Dakang. ”

Breathing a sigh of relief, Yin Hong said: "Compared with the expedition of the labor division and the defeat of the small forces scattered in various places, the ministers advocate recuperation, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and when the situation in Dakang is clear, gather heavy troops, fight on a large scale, and eradicate the major forces." ”

Ji Xuanling did not veto Yin Hong's proposal, and nodded with satisfaction: "Well, this is a good strategy, this king will consider it!" ”

Yin Hong sat upright and drank tea from a teacup.

At this time, Xu Wenda suddenly asked: "Your Majesty, the ministers are stupid, I don't know what the king did in Linzi, why did General Zhong Tai lead the army westward, and the king wants to attack Chu?" ”

The Qin State already has a national policy, first deeply cultivating Dakang, then trying to map the six eastern countries, and finally, competing with Daqian.

This cannot be changed unless absolutely necessary.

The king recognized, and Jiuqing also adhered to it.

Ji Xuanling smiled and said loudly: "This is going to Linzi to promote the alliance of Qin and Qi, and now the king of Qi will attack the Song Dynasty and weaken the Chu State, and the Qin army will naturally respond on the side, and it is too early to destroy the Song Dynasty." ”

Qin-Qi alliance?

Xu Wenda suddenly realized, his face showed excited joy, Yin Hong, Wei Kang, Yuan Lihuan, and Jia Taichu's faces couldn't hide their smiles.

One by one, they whispered to each other.

Eastern Qi, Western Qin, strong alliance.

In this way, the Qin State no longer has to worry about Qi Chuva calling on the six eastern countries to join forces to attack Qin.

When there are no worries, the Qin State can concentrate on cultivating Dakang.

In the future, once the time is ripe, the Qin army will definitely sweep through the eastern countries when they go out of the Han Valley.

The king is heading eastward, it's worth the trip!

When the ministers were excited, a soldier guarding the palace walked in quickly, arrived at the pawn Yuan Lihuan, knelt on the ground and muttered a few words, and handed him a letter.

Yuan Lihuan turned around suddenly and said urgently: "Your Majesty, something is wrong, Zhang Yi sent someone to send back Kuaima from Wei State, a team of Qin merchants was robbed outside Daliang City, and more than 20 people, all of whom were killed. ”
