"You should rest in my royal city for a while, and tomorrow I will consult with the generals, and then see how to send troops to retake the city."

After saying this, he waved his hand and motioned for the city lord to go down to rest, the city lord obviously wanted to say something more, but when he saw the impatient eyes of the relic, he immediately swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, and really went down to rest after thanking the relics.

The two directions of the Mauryan Empire are the mountains and the sea, but the other two directions are still connected to other places, there are other dynasties in it, although the area and strength are a little worse than the Mauryan Dynasty, but it is still very difficult for the Mauryan Dynasty to destroy them.

According to the inference of the relics, this time the cavalry should not know which dynasty lurked in the past, but in his mind, this is a very stupid act, if he wants to destroy the 230,000 cavalry, just send tens of thousands of infantry to cooperate with 100 elephants, this matter will be solved.

But what the city lord didn't know was that now was the critical period when Sheli Shengjia ordered the dispatch of soldiers to build warships to go to Daqin, just more than twenty days later, it was time to reach the deadline he set, and at that time his navy and warships should have the conditions to set off, and at this juncture, if he sent another 50,000 or 60,000 people and elephants to recover the temporarily lost city, he really didn't want to be distracted.

His heart has long been occupied by the yearning for the beauty and treasure of Great Qin, a very remote city is temporarily in the hands of his not very powerful enemy for a while, he actually doesn't care very much, in his opinion, it's a big deal when he has time to let the dynasty that attacked him double the return of this matter.

So after he temporarily placed the city lord in a mansion, he no longer saw him, and this matter was not discussed with the generals as he said, but always learned about the training of the navy and the construction of warships, as well as whether the preparation of grain and grass could be completed on time according to his requirements, so that half a month passed quickly.

He has been half a month now, for Han Xin and Xiang Yu, it has been more than 20 days since they attacked here, according to their original thoughts, it may not take ten days for the army of the Peacock Dynasty to come to recover the city, but more than 20 days have passed, and there is still no movement, which can't help but make the two frown a little.

Although their original intention in doing this was indeed to delay a certain amount of time and wait for the arrival of the two naval armies, it was based on the ability to consume the opponent's vital strength, and now the other party was reluctant to send troops, of course they didn't know what the relics were thinking.

In case during this period, if the relics first knew the news that the two water armies had entered the Peacock Dynasty, the consequences would be unimaginable for Han Xin and Xiang Yu.

But at this time, Xiang Yu and Han Xin were like blind people in the Peacock Dynasty, and they couldn't send scouts to find out about it, because they didn't control the language of the Peacock Dynasty.

On this day, Han Xin finally couldn't help it, summoned those scholars to his own face, and did not let Xiang Yu participate.

"When will you be able to integrate the language of the Mauryan Empire?"

Han Xin's face darkened, and he just asked this question, obviously, this matter has now become a matter that he attaches great importance to.

"General, don't worry, this is the first time we have come into contact with the language of the Peacock Dynasty, and those people from the Peacock Dynasty are also the first time to come into contact with the language of my Great Qin, and it is very difficult to fully understand the language of the Peacock Dynasty in this short period of less than a month, so we will wait......"

After these scholars looked at each other, one of them stood up a little bolder, but instead of directly answering Han Xin's question, he expressed the difficulties they were facing at this time.

But before he could finish speaking, he was ruthlessly interrupted by Han Xin.

"If you let this general hear such useless remarks again, then directly send you as a scout to investigate the capital of the Peacock Dynasty, compared to my Great Qin soldiers, what you do is already extremely easy, I will wait for you for another ten days, if you still can't roughly understand the language of the Peacock Dynasty, the next time you attack the city of the Peacock Dynasty, you will be the vanguard!"

After finishing speaking, Han Xin flicked his sleeves and left angrily, leaving only those scholars looking at each other, but they all knew that Han Xin was the husband of Yinggao's sister Yangzi, and he was just cannon fodder sent by the old men of various schools, and it was really not a wise move to wrestle with Han Xin, and everyone was a master who killed people without blinking, and if he said it, it would definitely be done.

This time, after the group of scholars returned, they immediately put aside their previous views on the door, and no longer the people of their own school just communicated with the people of their own school, and all of them gathered together, studying the conclusions and results obtained by each other these days, and at the end of the day, they found that the progress was really great.

Han Xin gave them another ten days, it was not something he said casually when he was angry, but the conclusion that he and Xiang Yu came to that if they couldn't study the language of the Peacock Empire within ten days, it would be useless to send as many scouts as they wanted, in that case, they could only send troops again to attack another Peacock Empire's city, and then force the army in the capital out.

But of course, this is not a very good plan, they only have 100,000 cavalry, this city can not be without, rash division of troops will greatly reduce their combat effectiveness, not to mention that they don't know how far away the other city is from them.

And if they study and understand the language of the Mauryan Empire, things will be much easier, so that they will naturally know where the capital of the Mauryan Empire is, and if they send scouts in this case, they only need to bring one or two scholars who have studied and understood the language, and they can know the movements of the capital.

At that time, once the two water armies have news, the shock to the capital of the Mauryan Empire will definitely be very large, and then let them know the news, they will be able to deal with it calmly in this place.

Although Han Xin also knew that it was a bit difficult to study and understand a language that he didn't know before in twenty days, he was always a little unwilling not to force these readers, after all, Yinggao was able to send them here thousands of miles away, which must mean that their abilities had at least been initially recognized by Yinggao.

This tossing and turning for more than a month not only made the time that Han Xin and Xiang Yu were most afraid of slip by, but also made the letter written by Han Xin on the night of the attack on this city to Xianyang City.

This battle report can reach Yinggao's hands so quickly, and it can be regarded as Lu Jia's credit, still between the contact points in the barren land, Lu Jia adopted the method of changing people and horses, and ran at the fastest speed day and night, so that Yinggao got this first-hand news so quickly.

"Good! The first battle went so smoothly, and the rest of the matter was much easier. ”

The news that Yinggao received before was sent a few days ago, and it was Han Xin who explained to Yinggao that the capital of the Mauryan Empire was not very far from the end of the barren land, which also caused their plans to have to make some adjustments, in order to be able to cooperate with Sima Xin and Peng Yue's two-way army under the condition of preserving their strength.

This news still makes Yinggao a little uneasy, he studied the history of China in his previous life, and he only has a vague concept of the Peacock Dynasty, what he thought in his heart was that if he had studied more at the beginning, he would have directly remembered where the capital of the Peacock Dynasty was, wouldn't there be no such variables?

But Han Xin's second letter made him breathe a sigh of relief, and he had more expectations for the combination of Han Xin and Xiang Yu.

In the case that the situation they faced was very inconsistent with the original plan, they were able to divide 30,000 of these 100,000 horses as suspicious soldiers to lure the main army of the Mauryan Empire, which was absolutely unthinkable to ordinary generals, and they couldn't even think of it.

And according to Yinggao's idea, their plan has almost been considered 90% successful, a dynasty as big as the Peacock Dynasty was captured by cavalry who don't know where they came from, which is intolerable to any monarch, at least Yinggao thinks so.

"Congratulations, this first army has just arrived at the territory of the Peacock Dynasty and has achieved such an achievement, when my Great Qin's three-way army arrives, the capital of the Peacock Dynasty will definitely fall into the hands of my Great Qin!"

After learning the news, Yinggao shared the news with his cronies Meng Yi, Xiao He and Chen Ping for the first time, because he suddenly announced that he would build a straight road from Xianyang to Bashu and then to the barren land, although the courtiers did not say anything against it, but in fact, there were still great opinions behind the scenes, and there were not many people in Bashu, not to mention the barren land.

Although everyone knows that Yinggao sent a three-way army to attack the so-called Peacock Dynasty, no one knows what kind of existence the Peacock Dynasty is and whether it can be defeated, and no one can say well.

And now, there is not much time for the army to set off, and it is not easy to pass on the news, so the news of directly attacking a city in the Mauryan Empire is even more precious.

Among these people, they know best what Yinggao's plan is, and they also know what Yinggao wants, so when Yinggao said the news in front of them, Xiao He naturally had to give Yinggao a good cheer, as long as they have a few unified views, they can then say this matter as a big thing in the court, a big event that makes everyone in the court admire Yinggao, if the court gets it, the people will naturally not have to talk about it.

"The simplicity of this first city is expected, but if there is a problem that cannot be solved as soon as possible, I am afraid that the more cities captured, the heavier the burden on Han Xin and Xiang Yu will be! The task of the two of them is not as simple and direct as Sima Xin and Peng Yue, and if they are not careful, they will lose all the games. ”

Ying Gao didn't say this to a few of them, it was more like talking to himself, but in the hearts of Xiao He and Meng Yi, he was really worried.

"The king refers to ......"

"If the words are not compatible, there will be no way to send scouts, and I don't know how the other side will respond, so the more cities you take, the more burdensome it will be, and what worries me is whether the best of the various schools are really as smart as their teachers boast."

When Yinggao said this, Xiao He knew that the things that Yinggao had asked him to do before would have such a big effect.

"The inheritance of all the schools of my Great Qin is on them, if they can't succeed, what will be destroyed is the majesty of their entire school, so these people will definitely do their best in this matter, please be relieved."

Xiao He represents the civil officials of Great Qin, and even bigger, isn't it the scholar of Great Qin who represents it, and the candidates for this matter are all handled by him personally, if something really bad happens in the Peacock Dynasty, his face will be more or less unbearable.

So far, Ying Gao can only choose to believe his words for the time being, all his plans actually revolve around one point, that is, he must understand the language of the Peacock Dynasty, and if he can't understand their language in time, he can't understand their rules of the game in time, if he has been crossing the river by feeling the stones, when there are no stones to touch in the middle of the river, he will eventually fall into the river, and now, Xiang Yu and Han Xin are undoubtedly in such a situation.

"Now the progress of the attack on the Mauryan Empire is much faster than I predicted before, no matter what, it is very likely that when Sima Xin and Peng Yue arrive at the capital of the Mauryan Empire, there will be results, and in this way, the straight road from Bashu to the barren land should also be put into construction......

Yinggao's thinking is always so jumpy, just now he was worried about whether Han Xin and Xiang Yu would be able to complete their tasks smoothly, but at this time, he began to worry about what would happen after the victory.

But after hearing this, the first to react was Chen Ping, because his good partner Lu Jia went to pursue a more ambitious goal in life, so many of Xiao He's things eventually fell on his head, such as the matter of cultivating the straight road, and he is currently in charge of it.
