Chapter Seventy-Four: Joy and Sorrow

It can be expected that in a few days, the two armies of Chu and Qin will face off in the north and south of Weishui, Li Xin's 400,000-strong army will attack Fangcheng, and the Chu-Qi coalition army led by Xiang Yan will cross the Yellow River and fight Wang Jian in the south of Handan. The grand war, which stretched for thousands of miles, involved the five countries, and involved more than 1.6 million soldiers from all sides, is gradually reaching a climax, and the war will determine the fate of the five countries and the ownership of the whole world.

The history is magnificent, but it is the incomparably small people who provoke it. Riding a green Han boat, not afraid of life and death from Sanmenxia straight east of the Qin envoy Wang Ao has entered the Qi realm, he held the festival into the south gate of Linzi City at the moment, but heard the Qi people lifting the city to blow the flute and drums.

"Dare to ask Daxing what's the matter?" Entering Linzi, he was received by Daxing Tianji.

"This ......" Tian Ji pretended to be unspeakable, and then brought a copy of Dachu news from the left and right.

Because of traffic restrictions, in addition to Yingdu, three separate museums were set up in Daliang, Linzi and Handan, and local scholars were hired to write articles and publish domestic news from various countries. Although news from other countries is also published, it is always four or five days late, which can be regarded as a kind of reprint, with the exception of one kind of news, that is, major events that affect the world. Only this kind of major event is worth occupying the Feixun line and carrying out several hours of communication.

Over the years of development, Dachu News has become more and more like the four-line tabloids of later generations, and the concept of front-page headlines has also been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but the text on it is as vertical as the bamboo slips. The front page of the big Chu news given by Tian Ji only has six words: The Chu army has slaughtered Xianyang!

"How could it!!" Rao is Wang Ao was mentally prepared, and the word 'slaughtered' also made his face change drastically, and the whole person couldn't help but tremble.

Tian Ji was extremely proud to see him like this, and this was what he wanted. "Qin Envoy doesn't think what Da Chu News said is false?" He stifled a smile, his eyes blinking, and he feigned surprise.

"Xianyang is a majestic city in the world, seven feet high and two feet high......" Wang Ao immediately restrained his surprise and shook his head again and again. How can it be broken by the Jing people?"

"The Qin envoy didn't take a closer look at the text, and the Chu people have burned the Taimiao of the Qin State!" It was a few days ago to pull out Xianyang, and the details of the city were clearly written: the artillery suppressed the city head, bombarded the city gate, the city gate was broken, and the sword and shield soldiers entered the city but were driven out by the Qin army, so they bombarded again. Although the Qin army was not afraid of death, its flesh and blood were finally defeated by artillery, and after a quarter of an hour, the city gate was strewn with corpses, and the roads were completely red......

Right historical chronicle, although Yi Xian was not at the scene, the next day he asked Master Cai a few strokes after his death, which not only depicted the process of pulling out Xianyang clearly, but also made people immersive.

"This Jing people's deception is also believed." Wang Ao pretended to smile. "The Jing people have pulled out a lot of my cities, why don't Xianyang Yan block the city gates. Moreover, there are hanging doors above the city gates, and the hanging doors are stone doors rather than wooden doors. ”

Wang Ao insisted on not admitting that Xianyang had been lost, anyway, this was a matter of one or two thousand miles away, and Qi people were not at the scene. Tian Ji didn't argue, what he wanted was a victory in momentum, and besides, the doctor who was in the court would give Qin Envoy a good look.

"The minister is ordered by the king of Qin to meet the king." The palace is facing up, and the people who are standing in the black pressure station are all doctors, and Tian Jian'an, the king of Qi, is sitting on the throne, and the whole person seems to have changed and become younger. Wang Ao was surprised in his heart, and he still saluted Tian Jian according to the routine.

"Is King Qin An?" In the past, when Tian Jian said this, King Qin had to add 'dare to ask, please ask', but now he bluntly said King Qin. The doctors were talking in a whisper, but when they heard Tian Jian's question, they immediately quieted down.

"The widow is safe. The widow led an army of 500,000 and was fighting with King Jing in Lantian. Wang Ao said Lantian, Tian Jian had a smile on his face, and when the doctor saw the king laughing, they also laughed and laughed.

"Can the Qin envoy know that the king of Chu has pulled out Xianyang? The battle in Lantian was a few days ago. Xiang Bangtian didn't smile, but he had a smile on his face.

"This Jing people's plan is also." Wang Ao said. "Xianyang is a city in the world, how can the lieutenant not block the city gate? Wang Jian, the general of Xianyi, led 300,000 troops to besiege Handan; Li Xin, the general of Yiyi, led an army of 400,000 generals to attack Nanyang; The widow led an army of 500,000 and met with King Jing in Lantian. King Jing was undefeated by 500,000 Qin troops, how could he attack Xianyang? ”

On the way to the house, Wang Ao came up with some reasons to refute it. The Qi State has not fought for decades, and there are very few doctors who really lead the troops to fight in the Linzi Dynasty, and the only few generals and military advisors are in Daliang, and they are speechless by him for a while.

In fact, even if the Great Sima Tianzong is here, he can't say too many reasons. What kind of army is the 500,000 Qin army, Tian Zong does not know. The Qi army, like the Qin army, had limited carrying capacity, and the ratio of men and horses could not reach the one to five required by the Chu army (a four-wheeled carriage for every twenty people), and it was difficult for the army to march quickly unless it was fought on the inner line.

"Even if the Jing people occupy Xianyang, so what?" It doesn't matter whether you pull out Xianyang or not, what matters is momentum. After Wang Ao was speechless about what the monarchs and ministers of Qi said, he simply took a step back. "As the saying goes, don't attack the place alone, but attack the people. There are only 200,000 Jing people, and 1.2 million Jia soldiers in Yiyi, if Jing people can defeat me, why don't they fight with me in Gongyi? The Jing people did not dare to go to Gongyi, but they were afraid of me. Can 100,000 Jing people defeat 500,000 Qin troops? ”

"However, the Chu army has the weapon of thunder, the power of thunder, and the Qin army is defeated." Ohaida framed the road. In order to obtain the thundering weapon of the Chu State, the Qi army drove the ducks to the shelves, and the 200,000 army, together with the Xiang Division and the Yangxia Brigade under the command of Xiang Yan, had gone north to rescue Handan.

"If the thundering weapon of the Jing people has this divine power, the king of Qin has already died." Wang Ao shook the Dachu News in his hand and refuted it like this. After speaking, he immediately turned to Tian Jian on the king's seat and said: "If the Jing people really attack Xianyang and defeat the 500,000 Qin army in Xianyi, what does this Jing people's joy have to do with the king?" ”

"You ......" was suddenly said by Wang Ao, and Tian Jian was very angry. Qi and Chu married and formed an alliance at the same time, and the joy of Chu is the joy of Qi. But before he had time to say this, Wang Ao said again: "The joy of the Jing people, the worry of the king." ”

"Why worry about widows?" Tian Jian asked unhappily. The son-in-law defeated the Qin State and taught him to smoke marijuana leaves, and he came one or two every day, and the days were already endless.

"Everyone in the world says that King Jing has faith and is true." Wang Ao began to enter the realm of swaying freely, first looking at Tian Jian, and then at the doctors of Qi on both sides behind him. "However, the system of Jing State is actually similar to the disadvantages, and it is also the system of military merit. King Jing has a letter, King Jing has a boat through the world, gold and silver are carried by boat, but what is the reputation of Jing people? ”

"Jing people are honored in front of the battle, regardless of life and death, brave and brave, but its seal is only twenty-five households, a few. There are only more than 20,000 Jing people, and the land of Chu has been sealed. Twenty years later, what is the title of Jingren? Fifty years later, what is the title of Jingren? ”

Wang Ao's mouth is like a river, and he once again depicts what has happened in this land. No one wants to see the situation of etiquette collapse, but because there is no land to seal, the children of the nobles who have fallen out of favor and the rest of the concubines can only tilt each other. This was an involution at the aristocratic level, and without the Great Voyage, medieval Europe would have fallen into a similar involution.

Even with the Great Voyages, by the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, European countries were also involuted. It's just that the political system at this time was not the pre-Qin feudal system, but the nation-state system. The so-called "German sword to get land for the German plow" and "Germans to give one neighbor land and another neighbor to the sea, leaving the sky for themselves - the era is over", the origin of the First World War is simple: Germany, the last to be founded, wanted to grab more land and cities.

Everyone understands what Wang Ao said, but some people disagree with his point of view.

"However, Jing people and sea boats connect the world." Tian He knew what Wang Ao was going to say.

"But the world is so big, why don't the nations move to Jiangdong? Why don't you move to Saibei? Wang Ao looked at him with a smile. Although the world is big, it is far away from summer. Barbarian land, language barriers, and epidemics, homesick for a long time, who wants to go? If Jing people are not homesick and want to go overseas, why not take Jing people as boat people? ”

After Wang Ao finished talking to Tian He, he turned to Tian Jian again, "Jing people are defeated, and the king should be worried and not happy." If everyone is enshrined, they will swallow the world. What is the difference between the Qin army and the Jing army to Muling? It's no different! This is all the place to break Qi and get Qi, and the society of the Dead Tian Clan is also.

The minister is the king's plan, and the disadvantages are better than the jing, which is not good; Jing is not good. Just as the snipe and the clam compete with each other and the fisherman gains, the joy of the king is the joy of losing both sides of the Jing country and not winning or losing, rather than the joy of the Jing people's victory and disadvantage. ”

Wang Ao's words woke Tian Jian up from the afterglow of marijuana, and he said movingly: "With what Qing sees, what should the widow do?" ”

"The King?" Only a few people don't believe Wang Ao's discordant words, and Qi Xiangtian is one of them.

"The minister is only for the king." Wang Ao emphasized, "The minister thought that the king should not save Zhao, and Zhao Guosu attacked Qi. is going to die now, why did Qi save it? The value of the disadvantage was attacked by the Jing people, abandoning the east of Hangu Pass and the west of Taihang, the king should take advantage of the situation to enter and swallow the land of Zhao, and then get the two counties of Dong County and Hanoi, so great good. ”

"Zhao Di? Dong County, Hanoi two districts? Tian Jian knew how big a piece of land Wang Ao was talking about, and this piece of land was bigger than the entire Qi country.

"The Qin people have no faith!" Tian Jiao has not refuted it, and the doctor has refuted it.

"It's really untrustworthy." Wang Ao actually admitted it in front of the monarchs and ministers of the Qi State. "However, the Jing people seized my Nanjun and Nanyang, and occupied Shangyu, and attacked Guanzhong, which was weak. The land east of Hangu Pass can only be abandoned. The disadvantages and Qi have not been added to each other for decades, so Qin Wangning gave the two counties of Dong County and Hanoi to Qi, and was unwilling to give them to Wei and Zhao. ”

Two counties are not two cities, Wang Ao heard the heavy gasping of the monarchs and ministers of Qi after speaking, and he was silent for a while. He said again: "When the king of Qin was young, he was confined to Handan, and the Zhao people tasted humiliation, this revenge will be avenged, and the Zhao country will be destroyed." If the king does not save Zhao, the disadvantage can cut the Zhao land south of Dongjun, Hanoi, and Hutuoshui to the state of Qi. ”
