To be honest, Tang Ning was a little unhappy with this request, but considering that he was just thinking of himself as a snake with Zhang Hanxu now, and seeking to destroy Qin together, he might as well promise him now, and the big deal would be to wait until after the destruction of Qin.

So he nodded again and replied, "Okay, I also agreed to this, but what about the third condition?" ”

At this time, Sima Xin's face became a little embarrassed, and he said hesitantly: "The third condition is that our army will not march west!" ”

"Won't march west? What does that mean? Tang Ning asked puzzled.

This time, Sima Xin's face was even more embarrassed, and he lowered his head and whispered: "It means that although we are anti-Qin, we will not meet other Qin sabers." General Chen, you also know that we are all from Qindi, and most of us are very familiar with the Xianyang garrison, so we really can't do it; Moreover, it would be too cruel for us to destroy the Qin Court in person, so please ask General Chen to understand our suffering......

But before he could finish speaking, Tang Ning waved his hand and interrupted: "What are you kidding?" What does General Zhang mean that he doesn't do anything, he just wants to get all the territory of Qin and then become king? How can there be such a good thing in the world? You go back and tell him that if he insists on this condition, then we won't talk about it, and I will let Han Xin defend Xingyang to the death, and then send people to Xianyang to spread rumors, I think your General Zhang can support it for a few days? When Zhao Gao comes to force him, if he doesn't want to die, he will still have the opposite, and there will be no benefit! ”

Although he knew that Tang Ning was just a threat, Sima Xin also knew that if Tang Ning really did this, then Zhang Han would be really miserable, so after communicating with Zhang Han, the two sides finally reached an agreement that Tang Ning could abide by these three agreements, but at the same time, Zhang Han must also agree to his two conditions, one is to openly oppose Qin; Second, in exchange, Zhang Han had to lay down two counties and exchange the territory of the Qin State in the Guanyuan with Tangning.

But what Zhang Han never imagined and regretted was that on the third day after he had just publicly opposed Qin, Zhao Gao was punished, and it was the third son of Qin who was killed that no one expected in advance! This made Zhang Han regret it very much, he knew that there would be no need to oppose Qin in this way, but now it was too late, even if he was willing to return to Daqin again, Ziying might not believe him.

Of course, Tang Ning would never be surprised by this incident, because he knew in history textbooks that Zhao Gao would die at the hands of Ziying, but he didn't understand how Zhao Gao, who could repeatedly design to kill Fusu, Meng Tian, Li Si and even Hu Hai, could capsize in the gutter and be planted in Ziying's hands? And he only knew that Ziying killed Zhao Gao, but he really didn't know how he killed him.

At this time, Lu Jia, who had been in charge of Xianyang's intelligence, came, so he explained to Tang Ning: "In fact, Ziying's method is very simple, and it can even be said that there is no method, that is, to trick Zhao Gao into the palace, and then Han Tan assassinated Zhao Gao, and then immediately organized people to destroy Zhao Gao's three clans, plus there are too many people in Xianyang City who hate Zhao Gao, so the civil and military officials quickly helped Ziying stabilize the situation." ”

Although he got the answer, Tang Ning still found it difficult to accept: "But this is too simple, right?" I really can't believe that someone as cunning as Zhao Gao could die so easily! ”

Lu Jia pondered for a while, and then replied: "I think the reason is very simple, that is, Zhao Gao underestimated the enemy, or to put it more bluntly, Zhao Gaogen didn't take Ziying to heart, and he never thought that Ziying would dare to kill him!" So he died without a little precaution at Ziying, ah no, it should be said that it was Han Tan's hands. ”

Then he explained in detail: "General, you see, when Zhao Gao planned to murder Gongzi Fusu, Meng Tian Mengyi, and Li Sihuhai before, he planned in detail and acted cautiously, so he succeeded, or everyone he wanted to harm was harmed, but he didn't want to harm Ziying at all, so he was negligent."

Of course, this also shows that Ziying is really not simple, he has been very low-key before, neither political ambitions, nor any political resources, nor has he shown extraordinary talent, so Zhao Gao is relieved to let him be a puppet, otherwise he can set up a child as the emperor. It can be seen that he is a man of resourcefulness, courage and action! ”

"Then do you think it is possible for Ziying to revive Great Qin?" Tang Ning asked with a frown.

Lu Jia shook his head and said: "This is very difficult, because the situation in Daqin is really bad now, although he got rid of Zhao Gao, who brought disaster to the country and the people, but now what he inherited is a mess full of holes, the territory is full of smoke, and there are no other troops in addition to the Gyeonggi garrison, not to mention the revival and can barely keep the foundation of the Qin State in Hangu Pass." Of course, if we give him ten years to recuperate, I think he might be able to bounce back, but is that possible? ”

"Of course it's impossible, don't say it's me, I guess even Zhang Han won't give him this chance!" Tang Ning replied without hesitation.

Lu Jia sighed and said, "That's why I said that Ziying came out too late, even if he appeared when you just got up, General, it would be too late." And now, unless he can keep Hangu Pass, he can move Zhao Tuo's troops who went to South Vietnam to return to quell the rebellion, and make a guarantee that he will not blame Zhang Han for the past, so that he can still have a chance, but at present, it is difficult to do both of these things. ”

"One thing I'm very puzzled about, why can't Zhao Tuobu come back?" Tang Ning finally found an opportunity to ask this question, because he was particularly puzzled by this when he previewed it before, the mainstream saying is that the first emperor once said "If the Xiongnu invade the Central Plains because of the civil war in the Central Plains, then even if I unify the Central Plains, I will be ashamed of my ancestors and the people", and the theory is still that when Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms, he always put the most elite troops in the north to prevent the Xiongnu from going south, so no matter how bad the situation is, it is necessary to mobilize the army to prevent the Xiongnu and the expedition to Lingnan, of course, At the same time, it is also because they have enough confidence in the Great Qin army.

But the problem is that Wang Li's Northern Route Army has been transferred out, and it has been disabled by Xiang Yu, since even the Northern Route Army that guards against the Huns can be transferred, why can't the Southern Route Army of the expedition to Lingnan be transferred back? Could it be that the ethnic minorities in Lingnan are even more powerful than the Xiongnu? That doesn't make sense, does it?

PS: Well, take a leave in advance, I have something tomorrow, I guess I can't update, and then I'll try to find time to make up for it......
