Chapter 590: Exposed (First Update)

"What does Childe mean...... We ourselves exposed our location to the spies sent out by the monarch of the ancient temple country? ”

Hu Hai's idea is indeed very bold, but it must have been unimaginable to Antiochus III, and by the time Antiochus III knew their secret, maybe he really wouldn't have been able to care about these things, right?

"But there's no need to be so eager, isn't Antiochus III assassinating those spies sent by the ancient temple country? We don't have to be so straightforward, just make some articles on this. ”

The two continued to discuss for a long time before going to rest, but what others didn't know was that on this inconspicuous night, the news that the two of them discussed had a very big effect on the future movement of the land.

In fact, the monarch of the ancient temple country understands in his heart, the spies he sent out have died a lot, and the dead are not going to a single place, although this makes the monarch of the ancient temple country not know who did it, but he knows that the ability of this force must be not small, at least it will be much greater than his own power, and there are so many decent forces in this land, which makes the king of the ancient temple country very embarrassed, Daqin did give him the land, but did not give them any manpower, Originally, in the previous battle with the White Tiger Dynasty, the ancient temple country lost a lot of people and horses, and now although the monarch has begun to recruit troops again and the effect is good, the organization of the secret agent is still overstretched.

After losing a lot of spies, although the monarch of the ancient temple country was also bitter, but he did not change his plan, Han Xin did not ask him for anything else when he left, that is, let him find these two people, if he didn't play again, it would be a bit different.

In the next search, he concentrated all the spies on some big forces, and as expected, some spies disappeared.

Just when he was running out of spies at hand, on this day, a piece of news appeared in front of him.

One of the spies was injured a lot, but he didn't know why or ran back. When the monarch of the ancient temple country saw this situation, he felt that there should be a door for this matter.

"Who have you been wounded by, but what have you found useful?"

"Your Majesty, I was wounded in the Seleucians, but I didn't find anything useful, I think it was because I was suspicious in appearance and not good at learning that the Seleucians seized the opportunity, but the people who hurt me were people in ordinary clothes, and there was nothing special about it. If it weren't for my luck, I would have died in Seleuc. ”

After listening to the words of the secret agent, the monarch of the ancient temple country nodded slightly, and then let him go out to rest, while personally picking up the pen and paper, carefully writing a letter, and then carefully sent someone to Fahrenheit City.

The monarch of the ancient temple country is still very good at being a person, he doesn't have any guesses of his own in the letter, but he just told the situation that happened to him after Han Xin left, and as for the matter of making decisions, he knew that he was not qualified, all he could do was report the news.

It didn't take too long for this letter to reach the hands of Lu Jia and Meng Tian of Hua's city, and the role of the ancient temple country was told to them before Han Xin left, and they were told that once there was news about Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng, the monarch of the ancient temple country would inform them, and now the news is coming, but it has given them a problem.

If you want to say that the last force they want to move outside the border now is really Seleuc, any other dynasty, with a hundred thousand horses, it will definitely be able to take it, but in this place of Seleuc, you can't take down 200,000 horses.

When the Mauryan Dynasty was dominant in this family before, people never thought of destroying Seleu, and signed a friendly treaty with Seleuc, that must be because Seleu is a hard bone, the scale of the family is not small, and it is also a warlike dynasty, in other words, whoever wants to destroy the family has to weigh it carefully.

"Could it be that the king of the ancient temple country provoked the relationship between us and the Seleuc, and thus wanted to provoke a war?"

After Meng Tian saw this letter, his first reaction was that the monarch of the ancient temple country was not a sincere person, and he wanted to do something not very good.

Lu Jia twisted his eyebrows and thought for a long time, then shook his head and said: "The monarch of this ancient temple country has just had the right to speak in that land because of us, and almost no one dares to move, at this time they will definitely not deceive us for no reason, I am afraid that this matter is true, but according to this matter, it cannot be concluded that Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng are really hidden in the Seleuc Dynasty, or send this letter back to Xianyang City, let the monarch read it and then make a decision!" ”

Lu Jia is still very clear about the men and horses they can use in this land, if it is a small dynasty, he and Meng Tian can make a decision, but a guy as big as Seleuc, no matter what, Yinggao has to make the decision himself, although they also know that this will waste a lot of time, but it is also a helpless move.

In the end, this letter really came to Yinggao's hand, looking at this letter from the monarch of the ancient temple country, Yinggao's brows were also tightly wrinkled.

Although the specific cause and effect of the matter Yinggao himself is unknown, he knows that this matter must be related to Seleuc, and Yinggao has always suspected that there should be only one Seleuc who dares and has the ability to hide Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng, and other dynasties are basically big fart places, how can they keep hiding a Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng without being discovered?

In the end, Yinggao still summoned Han Xin, and once again confirmed with Han Xin whether the monarch of this ancient temple country is reliable or not, when he learned that this guy is an old man who has no ideas, Yinggao is even more sure that the monarch of this ancient temple country will never dare to lie in this matter.

"In your opinion, should we attack Seleuc?"

As soon as Han Xin heard the words of attacking Seleus, a trace of essence flashed in his eyes, and then he said: "As for the matter of attacking Seleus, I am afraid that it has already been decided in the heart of the king, and what cannot be determined is only the time to attack Seleus." ”

"Yes, this time you have also arrived in that land, I believe that you also have a very deep understanding of Seleus, when do you think the war against Seleu should be launched?"

Han Xin didn't even pause after hearing this question, obviously because he didn't know how long he had been preparing for this question.

"In my opinion, the monarch has made enough achievements in the internal affairs of Daqin in the past two years, and the people of Daqin and the people of the Peacock Dynasty have already respected the monarch very much, and the same is true of the previous conscription, 30,000 soldiers have been recruited without much effort, this time, the monarch can no longer be so scattered conscription, the territory of Daqin plus the territory of the Peacock Dynasty, there must be at least 200,000 troops, and after a little training, you can be stationed in various cities, replace the defenders from all over the country, enough to destroy the Seleuc!"

When Han Xin said this, his confidence was still very full, as if Seleu had already become the bag of Great Qin, but judging from the words that Han Xin said that the conscription was at least 200,000, he already attached great importance to Seleuc, otherwise, if he said it, he would have taken 100,000 horses and it would be over.

Han Xin's remarks are basically in line with what Yinggao thinks in his heart, Yinggao imagines that it is to recruit soldiers, and then replace mature people, and finally drive to the Peacock Dynasty to do this, obviously, according to Han Xin, the time is ripe at this time.

"Yes, this letter just gives us an opportunity, Seleuc's big trouble, sooner or later it will be a war, and it is time, but for this battle, I have a request, if you can meet it, you will be the commander of this war!"

Of course, Han Xin cares about what Yinggao knows, the position of the commander of the battle this time is almost inevitable for Han Xin, Yinggao did plan to give him this position, but if he is given it, he can give it to him, and Yinggao wants a follow-up, because he knows what kind of situation Daqin will face after killing Seleucus again.

"Your Excellency, but it doesn't hurt to say it!"

"This time in the big battle with Seleuc, no matter how many troops Seleu eventually sent, and I don't care what kind of process this battle is, the loss of my Great Qin army cannot exceed 50,000, if you can achieve this, you can start preparing for conscription immediately, if not, this matter will drag on for some time."

"The loss is less than fifty thousand!"

As soon as Han Xin heard this, he pondered in his heart, obviously, for him, this is not a simple thing that can be accomplished, Seleu's strength must be far more than 100,000, and it may even be 200,000, if they want to destroy Seleuc, they will definitely resist to the death, in this case, the loss is less than 50,000, Han Xin knows that even Meng Tian cannot guarantee it.

Han Xin didn't answer immediately, Yinggao was not in a hurry, he also knew that this was not something that could make a decision as soon as his head was hot, Han Xin had to at least practice it in his heart, and think about the strategy before he could make a guarantee, otherwise, such a guarantee would be invalid.

Finally, after thinking about it for a long time, Han Xin raised his head again, this time, the expression on his face changed from solemn to confident, and he said: "Just leave this matter to me, in this battle, the loss will definitely be less than fifty thousand!" ”

Ying Gao was waiting for Han Xin's words, after Han Xin finished saying this, Ying Gao smiled slightly on his face and said: "From the beginning of the conscription, you are all responsible for this matter, I will write a letter to Lu Jia and Meng Tian, telling them to ignore this matter for the time being, when do you think the time is ripe, you yourself lead the troops to the territory of the Peacock Dynasty to inform them of this matter, Meng Tian, Peng Yue, Sima Xin and others, you can dispatch at will, what I want is the result of this battle, and within a year, I want to see the result of this matter." ”

Obviously, this matter was only known to the two of them, and it was not until Han Xin brought the army to the territory of the Peacock Empire that Lu Jia, Meng Tian and the others could know about it.

This gave Han Xin a lot of freedom, and the conscription was also handed over to him, which meant that Han Xin could control the source of soldiers, and in the history of Great Qin, no one had ever had such a great power, of course, the pressure on him was the same as his power, very heavy.

Yinggao's letter was transmitted back to the Mauryan Empire on the same day, and Lu Jia and Meng Tian received the news that they should add some more men to focus on the actions of the Seleucians, and there was nothing else.

Although this made Meng Tian a little angry, there was a feeling that he couldn't catch Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng in the land of Seleuc, but Yinggao's order was Yinggao's order, and Yinggao's order had times when they couldn't understand it before, but in the end, everything proved that Yinggao's decision was the most correct decision. They certainly have reason to believe that this time is no exception.

At the same time, the fact that the people under his command let go of an agent from the ancient temple country has also been known to Antiochus III, but the report he received is only because the secret agent didn't know what was going on and reacted extremely sensitively, so he escaped their pursuit, and they could only be sure that the secret agent was injured and escaped, but they couldn't be sure whether the secret agent could safely return to the ancient temple country to report the news.

After learning about this, Antiochus III's heart was almost furious, in his opinion, the elite soldiers he sent out would let a small spy of the ancient temple country run away, this is simply a great shame, although he did not kill the people who made mistakes under his command, but Antiochus III's anger was almost all the generals under his command to see.

Although angry, Antiochus III had nothing to take the initiative to take for the current situation of himself and the Seleuc Dynasty, he ordered his men to keep a close eye on the situation in the territory of the Mauryan Empire, and on the other hand, he stepped up the recruitment and training of men, obviously, Antiochus III was also completely ready to fight with the warriors of Great Qin at this time.

After arranging this, Antiochus III once again summoned Zhao Cheng to his Seleucid dynasty.

"The matter of waiting for my Seleucid Dynasty is very likely to have been suspected by Great Qin, and the secret agents of the ancient temple country frequently enter and exit the territory of my Seleuc, although most of them have been cleared by us, but under the negligence of a hundred secrets, we still let one go."

For Zhao Cheng, Antiochus III did not hide anything.
