Chapter 401: The Peacock Dynasty (Second Update)
If you want Daqin to shine on this planet, first of all, you have to have the power of self-preservation, of course Yinggao knows, if he can't even guarantee the safety of his own life as the emperor of Daqin, let alone those things in the future.
So Yinggao's plan is that no matter what, he has to do something to Zhang Liang and Xiang Yu, and they are now the Xiongnu's Shan Yu, and according to Xiang Yu's previous letter to Yinggao, within three years, Xiang Yu should want to accumulate strength in the Xiongnu.
According to Tian Yan, because she has lived in the mountains for a long time, she has not seen the legendary Zhang Liang, which made Yinggao secretly relieved, but at the same time, he also discovered the fact that Zhang Liang and the dark line he arranged in Daqin are likely to be single-line.
After arranging this matter with the Zhu family, Yinggao could only wait for the result with peace of mind, it was impossible for Zhang Liang to return to the territory of Daqin by himself, and how he contacted his so-called disciple Yinggao is unknown, all he can do is wait for Tian Yan's senior brother to be arrested.
In the next ten days, Yinggao still did not go to Tian Yan's palace, as if the bet between the two of them had been decided and the outcome had not happened, which made Tian Yan a little hard to believe.
In fact, this point made Tian Yan a little wrong to blame Yinggao, not that Yinggao didn't want to go to him, but that during this period of time, the feedback he got after the new policy and Qin Law was issued poured into Xianyang Palace like snowflakes.
Because Yinggao had said before, he had to see everything about this in person. So in the past few days, Lu Jia, Chen Ping and Xiao He have stayed in Xianyang Palace almost motionless.
Every night, Yinggao, who has dealt with dozens of things, is dizzy, his face is swollen, his legs are weak, and all he wants to do is to get a good night's sleep.
In such a state, he naturally couldn't go to Tian Yan, otherwise if he couldn't stand up the first time, he might not be able to leave any shadow in his heart in the future. For Tian Yan, Ying Gao had already thought about it, he had to find a time when he was in the best state before he could take her down.
During this period, it was relatively uplifting news for Yinggao that Han Xin had returned from Yelang Country with Peng Yue after a few months.
came back with them, as well as the three most powerful people in Yelang Country, the monarch, the prime minister and the general, but at this time, they had already become prisoners of Han Xin and Peng Yue.
Before Han Xin returned, he had already arranged all the more than a dozen officials sent by Yinggao from Xianyang City in the newly established county within the territory of Yelang Kingdom, and according to Han Xin's description, he and Peng Yue seemed to have liberated the people of Yelang who had suffered before.
They welcomed the fact that they had changed from the people of Yelang Country to the people of Great Qin, and it was precisely because of this that Yelang's affairs could end so quickly.
This time he won Yelang, claiming to the outside world that it was naturally Peng Yue's credit, he won more with less, and used his wits to win Yelang, and Han Xin was just sent by Yinggao to deal with the aftermath.
Such an achievement is of course enough for Peng Yue to become a general who can stand on the stage, and Han Xin naturally will not be unwilling, because long before he left, Yinggao had already explained to him the situation of this trip, which was nothing more than the little brother Peng Yue, who let him gain a foothold in the court.
As for his own credit, Han Xin really doesn't care if the credit for playing a little Yelang is his own, Yinggao married his own sister to himself, and that little bit of credit, Han Xin is naturally Yinggao who wants him to share it with.
On this day, Ying Gao sat on the main seat of the main hall, and the four people sitting below were Han Xin, Xiao He, Meng Yi and the Zhu family.
A gathering of this scale has almost never happened since Han Xin went to Yelang, and several of them all know that once Yinggao summons a few of them together, it will almost be a major event related to Great Qin, even more serious than the revision of the New Deal and Qin Law.
Because Yinggao is a person who can solve the matter with one or two people, he will never be so excited.
As it turned out, they were right, and when Yinggao came up and threw out what they wanted to say, almost everyone present stood up, because what Yinggao told them was something they had never heard of.
"Your Majesty, you can't say anything about this!"
The first to react was Meng Yi's, among these people, if they were knowledgeable, Meng Yi was almost the first, he thought that if it was based on seniority, Yinggao would have to be his junior, so from Yinggao's mouth, he suddenly said something that he had never heard of, and even beyond his own thinking, it was too shocking for him.
"There will be no trace of falsehood in what I said, as for how I learned about this, it is inconvenient for me to say, for the time being, only I and Brother Fusu of Nanhai County know, except for us, the rest of the people do not know."
At this time, Yinggao was in front of the huge map in his hall, and the place where his finger was pointing was obviously beyond the scope of the map, and he was about to squat on the ground, but the words that came out of his mouth were not joking.
"What does the king mean is that I don't know how far south of Nanhai County is, and there is an empire that is no less than my Great Qin Empire, and the number of soldiers in its population may even be higher than that of my Great Qin?"
It was Xiao He who asked this, and he almost completely repeated what Yinggao said before, which was enough to see the same as Meng Yi, how much shock this statement caused in his heart.
As for Han Xin and the Zhu family, they had already given Ying Gao the same thing, almost squatting on the ground, looking carefully at the place on the map, and estimating in their hearts how far that place was from Daqin.
"Exactly, the princes have some doubts about why I asked General Wang Li to supervise the construction of warships in Jiujiang County early, because my Great Qin is almost always located inland, and there are no enemies overseas, and the princes don't know anything, if my Great Qin does not have a warship, once it is discovered by the people of the empire and attacks on the land of my Great Qin, my Great Qin will be passive."
Seeing what Yinggao said in such a serious way, they obviously knew that this matter was true, although they didn't know how Yinggao, who had stayed in Xianyang City almost all the time and had not been out a few times for more than 20 years, knew about it, but if it was really like Yinggao said, Daqin would really not have a large-scale warship and navy.
"Your Majesty, if this is the case, I am afraid that Nanhai County will not only not be able to withdraw its troops, but will strengthen its garrison!"
Han Xin's thinking is still quite clear, according to the direction that Yinggao pointed out on the map before, if there is really such a powerful enemy, and this enemy is likely to take a warship to attack Daqin, the most likely place for them to land is undoubtedly the depths of South Vietnam today.
It's still the land card of the South Vietnamese people, and although the scale of Nanhai County in Daqin is already quite small, it has not yet penetrated to that extent.
Once the empire in Yinggao's mouth comes, the first thing to face will be those South Vietnamese tribes, and since they have the strength to cross the ocean to come to your side of the mainland, the South Vietnamese tribes naturally can't stop their pace.
In this way, the hinterland of South Vietnam will be occupied by others, and if they use it as their base camp to gradually accumulate troops, it is possible that they will not know anything until they have annexed hundreds of thousands of Great Qin.
"I have already informed Brother Fusu of this matter, according to my judgment, within a few years, my Great Qin will definitely be safe and sound, today I will inform the princes of this matter, but I want to make the princes pay attention to their hearts, my enemies of Great Qin, not only the Xiongnu and Nanyue, if they can't solve it easily, the future Great Qin will definitely fall into the quagmire."
Although there is nothing else to say, but this news is enough to add a lot of worry to everyone's hearts, when Yinggao announced that there is no other matter, their steps are not as light as when they came.
In the end, Yinggao left the Zhu family and Han Xin in his main hall, obviously, Yinggao still has unfinished words for the two of them.
"The two from the Shangdang haven't arrived in Xianyang City yet?"
Yinggao first asked about the situation of Tian Yan's senior brother, and the reason why Yinggao didn't go to Tian Yan these days is also inextricably linked to this matter.
Yinggao didn't know what kind of mood Tian Yan would feel if he really executed his senior brother one day without Tian Yan's knowledge.
But what he can be sure of is that before her senior brother's situation is decided, it is best not to change his relationship with her, after all, it is a person who can let himself die in a few seconds in the bed, and Yinggao of course has to be cautious.
"No, those two people appeared in Shangdang more than ten days ago, but according to the news from the guards in Shangdang, it seems that they want to leave Shangdang, and once they leave, we can find out their whereabouts."
As soon as he heard that these two people did seem to be going far away, Yinggao had points in his heart, but for the Huns, there was one thing that Yinggao had always been a little unable to understand.
The letter that Xiang Yu wrote to him before did have some meaning of showing off and wanting to provoke Yinggao, but of course he did not succeed in the end, but it can also be seen in the letter that Xiang Yu definitely did not want to take the initiative to have any war with Daqin within three years, and he who had just taken over the Huns would definitely find a way to improve the combat effectiveness of the Huns, which was indeed understandable to Yinggao.
But Zhang Liang was obviously with Xiang Yu, but he sent assassins to assassinate Yinggao several times, which was obviously not on the same channel as the policy Xiang Yu wanted to take.
Yinggao believed that if Zhang Liang's actions were instructed by Xiang Yu, Xiang Yu could have waited until he wanted to do something to Daqin, and it would be precisely when Yinggao's vigilance was the lowest before doing these things, instead of forcibly assassinating him several times at this already sensitive time, which was extremely inconsistent with the ideas that Xiang Yu could reveal in his letters.
Through these two points, Yinggao suddenly had an idea in his heart, between Zhang Liang and Xiang Yu, it was not ......
This kind of idea has actually appeared in Yinggao's head for a while, Yinggao has always wanted to use Tian Yan's senior brother, who may have a direct correspondence with Zhang Liang, to verify his own idea, but he didn't expect Tian Yan's senior brother to be quite calm, Tian Yan has been in Xianyang Palace for so long, and he hasn't even gone to Xianyang City to take a look.
So today, Yinggao, who has no patience anymore, decided not to wait for Tian Yan's senior brother anymore, he wants to take the initiative to attack, once the Huns' things are really as he imagined, there is something to do here, and the important thing is that if the threat of Xiang Yu and Zhang Liang can be solved bloodlessly, Yinggao can really set his sights on the south.
Although when he told Meng Yi and Xiao He about the existence of the Peacock Dynasty, it seemed that he just wanted to protect Great Qin from possible blows, but what Ying Gao really wanted in his heart was not just defense.
"And continue to pay attention to the whereabouts of those two, but for the Huns, I have an idea in my heart, I am afraid that one of the two will have to go on a trip......"
After saying this, Yinggao summoned the two people with bewildered faces to his front and whispered his thoughts.
After the Zhu family and Han Xin glanced at each other, they fell to the ground almost at the same time, and said, "A certain wish!" ”
Ying Gao looked at this posture, and it was a little difficult to choose for a while, this matter, it was really only one of the two of them to go to Ying Gao to rest assured, according to normal speaking, it should be Han Xin who went there, after all, the biggest task of the Zhu family is to protect their own safety inside and outside the Xianyang Palace.
But Ying Gao considered that Han Xin had just returned from Yelang not long ago, and if he sent Han Xin away directly, he was a little afraid that his sister would come back and fight with him, so after thinking about it, he still left this question to the two of them to decide.
"The Zhu family needs to protect the safety of the monarch in Xianyang City, if it is someone else, I don't worry, this time I need to go!"
Before Yinggao and the Zhu family wanted to say anything, Han Xin directly said such a domineering sentence, and when the Zhu family heard it, there was really nothing to refute Han Xin, and they couldn't help but look at Yinggao, after all, what did Yinggao want to do in the end, it was Yinggao's words. In fact, the Zhu family has been in Xianyang City for a long time, but they are also quite envious of Han Xinneng's ability to go out for a walk from time to time.
