Money is only a number to the noble, and the dowry is just another way of marrying, and it is up to the discretion to decide whether or not to change the boat. The innocent princesses, who understood this, began to chatter again, not knowing that this evil institution, which would later be called the 'Eastern Mediterranean Company', gave to the peoples of ancient India, Seleucids, Egypt, and Greece...... How many disasters have been bringed.

Xiong Jing has some understanding of this, but this is war, and he has no choice. War is a confrontation of spiritual forces, and it is also a piling up of military materials. If overseas resources are not mobilized to support this protracted war, the state of Chu will inevitably lose. However, even if the last Indian dies, the state of Chu will never surrender! He believed that the Qin State would eventually collapse, just like in history, just because the 900 soldiers raised their arms and died in the country.

There is always a huge difference between the behavior of people who can see history clearly and those who can't see history clearly, and the lights of the Daliang Palace are on, and Wei Zeng, the king of Wei in the small bedroom, is not in a good mood: in the afternoon, Lin Jiao, the general of Daliang, insulted him in public for being mediocre. Outrageous! He is a great king, the lord of a country, and if he is mediocre, he is also misguided by his courtiers, and the king will always be wise.

"Someone!" Wei Zeng's eyebrows were straight, and his face was gloomy. "Take down the horn to the widow and put him in prison."

"The king must not!" The servant Wei Xi was taken aback, Lin Jiao was the main general of the 100,000 Wei army, and the Wei army would inevitably be in chaos if he took the main general.

"The king is wise!" Wu Ying, the doctor who entered the slander, was overjoyed when he saw the king's anger. "The minister also heard that the king of Qin did not save Daliang because of Lin Jiao."

"What do you mean?" Wei Zeng was puzzled, he stopped Wei Xi, who was about to speak, and wanted to hear what Wu Ying had to say.

"Don't you know?" Wu Ying pretended to be surprised. "On that day, the Chu army boat division landed on the shore, and Lin Jiao did not save the Qin army, but also killed a Qin military captain and set fire to the pontoon bridge. Yang Duanhe fled back to Daliang and informed the King of Qin of the matter, and the King of Qin was furious! ”

"Ah——!h Wei Zeng's surprise seemed to come out of his throat, and his eyes burst out. "Is that really the case?! Is that really the case?! ”

"King, the battlefield was chaotic that day, and General Lin Jiao killed the colonel of the Qin army because ......" Wei Xi was still explaining, and Wei Zeng's wine lord threw it in his face. Why don't you tell the widow?! Didn't you accept a bribe from Lin Jiao to help him deceive the widow? ”

"The minister doesn't dare, the minister never dare!" Wei Xi knew what the king hated the most, and the king hated others for deceiving him the most. "The minister thought that this was just a trivial matter, so he didn't tell the king."

"A trifle? King Qin is angry! Wu Ying added oil and vinegar to the side, and when he saw Wei Zeng glaring at him, he hurriedly silenced.

"Let Lin Jiao go to Luoyang to call the Qin people for help!" Wei Zeng took a heavy breath, of course he was not mediocre, but he needed long sleeves to maneuver between Qin and Chu, his sleeves were not long, and he would naturally be scolded as mediocre if he took care of one or the other.

"The king......" Wei Xi understood what the king meant, this was to let Lin Jiao go to Luoyang to send people's heads. The king of Qin did not save the Liang, because it took time to gather the army, and there were too many millets in Aocang, and the king of Qin did not want these corns to be obtained by the Chu state. ”

"Ranlian Po is attacking the city day and night!" Wei Chang sighed, the sound of the trebuchet hammering the city wall could be heard throughout the girders, and this monotonous sound made people fidget, and they couldn't even sleep.

"King, whatever the Chu State wants, it is only half a city in the north, and you have to destroy my Wei State!" Wei Xi persuaded again, "If the Chu people get this half of the city, it will help me stop the Qin army from attacking ......."

"Daliang is the capital of my Wei State, and it is the land of Sheji. How can it be said that half of the city is half of the city? No one is allowed! Wei Zeng roared. Passing on the order of the widow king, Lin Jiao quickly went to Luoyang to ask the King of Qin for help! ”

After Wei Zeng finished speaking, he threw a talisman to the confessor, and then he thought that Lin Jiao had no one to command the army in the outer city, and it was not suitable for the general of Wang Cheng to go, so he thought about it and said: "The defenders of the outer city will be commanded by Yu Tu from today." ”

The king arranged it like this, and Wei Xi, who wanted to persuade him, finally endured it, and did not persuade again, Wu Ying, who was slandering, knew that Lin Jiao might not be able to return this time, and he no longer spoke. That same night, Lin Jiao, who had received the king's order, went out of the west of the city with his retinue.

Zhao Zheng, the king of Qin who escaped from Daliang, was in Luoyang, he was not timid, but he grew up in the palace and saw a lot of intrigues and tricks, and then he learned that the national lieutenant Huan Qi had fornicated with Xiang Yan, so he was a little panicked. When I arrived in Luoyang that day, I saw the strong and tall walls of Luoyang City, and finally settled down. At this time, the news of the attack on Aocang came again, Aocang is the largest granary in the eastern part of the Kanto, and the Qin army went east along the big river, eating all the corn of Aocang.

The occupation of Aocang is not trivial, it is impossible for the soldiers to go hungry to fight, once the food and straw in the Mengwu army are exhausted, there is no other way but to withdraw the army. It was easy to march, but it was not so simple to withdraw, especially when the Chu army cut off the pontoon bridge to the west.

In this regard, Li Xin, who hurried to Biyang, suggested that Zhao Zheng save Daliang first, and Daliang was saved, and hundreds of thousands of Mengwu's troops were also saved. After blocking the waterway, it was not as difficult as imagined to build a pontoon bridge.

Yang Duanhe, the general of the defeated army, thought that Aocang should be recaptured first. Aocang corn is not important, but it is very important to drive the Chu army back to the chasm waters. The real place to be blocked is not only the girder, but also the mouth of the chasm. The boat division of the Chu army is like a long ge, which can not only surprise attack Aocang, but also attack Luoyang, and can cross Luoyang to directly attack Hangu Pass.

The two generals disagreed, and what they said was very reasonable, and Wang Jian, who was recalled from Yecheng, did not say a word or make a statement. Xiong Qi, the right prime minister, Changping Jun, advised Zhao Zheng to return to Xianyang as soon as possible, and Luoyang was not safe - twenty years ago, the Qin State destroyed the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, similar to the situation of the Qin army occupying Shangdang, and the Zhou people were not happy to be the Qin people, so the 'Zhou people died in the east'.

Not all the Zhou people died in the east, and the poor common people could not afford the cost of fleeing, so they could only continue to stay in Luoyang City. Accustomed to the Zhou system, they were naturally not accustomed to the Qin State, which had strict laws and could only cultivate and fight all their lives, and rebellions occurred from time to time, and hatred accumulated.

The low life expectancy in ancient times was not because the average life expectancy of adults was low, but because of the high mortality rate under the age of 14. Twenty years is not enough for a generation to die of old age, the Zhou people in Luoyang City still remember the days more than 20 years ago, and when all these people are dead, the newly born Zhou will think that their ancestors have been Qin people for generations. Now, once you know that King Qin is in Luoyang City, there may be an accident.

The courtiers had their own arguments, and Zhao Zheng only asked how many soldiers had arrived in each county every day, and ignored the rest. When he heard that the assembled army had 150,000, he finally gathered his ministers after more than ten days of patience.

"The widow's mind has been decided, the army will take Aocang first, and then save Daliang. What do you think? "The Luoyang Dormitory is old, some of the lacquered cases, beams and pillars have faded, and there are many rats here.

"The king is wise!" Yang Duanhe said loudly, and the king finally adopted his suggestion.

"Tell the king, by the end of November, the river will be frozen, and the Jing people's war boats will be useless, so they will naturally retreat." Relying on his own appreciation by the king, Li Xin still spoke out against it. "And Ao Cang can be pulled out in a few days, according to the detective cavalry, the Jing people have built a bamboo frame south of the grain canal and built a high wall......

"No way!" Yang Duanhe shook his head again and again. "There is no loess in the south of the grain canal, the canal is a stone canal, how to ram the high wall?"

"How can all the scouts report like this?" Li Xin retorted. "In addition to the high wall, in the battle of Jiyi, the Jing people also have a kind of rope net that cannot be broken by the halberd, this net is high, and our army cannot break it. The scout also reported that this rope net had been erected south of the grain canal. Therefore, the minister thought that the attack on Aocang should be insufficient for 150,000 people. ”

"Do you think you need a warrior?" Zhao Zheng listened very attentively, and he was very humble now.

"I think it's at least 200,000." Li Xindao. "With the city defense of the Jing people, the minister thought that he could not take Aocang unless he died 100,000, and he could not overthrow the army unless he died 100,000. The river is frozen, and the Jing people will retreat. Instead of 200,000 soldiers dying in Aocang, it is better to relieve the siege of Daliang. This can not only save the army of Mengwu, but also prevent the king of Wei from colluding with the Jing people. ”

The word Hezong moved Zhao Zheng, and he pondered for a while and asked, "Qing thinks that this 150,000 armor soldiers should save the Liang?" ”

"Your Majesty, no." Li Xindao. "The army to save the Great Liang must not be less than 250,000, preferably 300,000."

"The general is afraid of the Jing army!" Zhao Zheng was unhappy, he chose to attack Aocang because the Chu army in Aocang was less than 100,000, if he saved Daliang, then he would have to wait for more soldiers to assemble, he couldn't wait, he wanted to order the Qin army to counterattack back now.

"King, the soldiers recruited this time are not as good as the previous elite soldiers!" Li Xin had to remind Zhao Zheng of this fact, "There are no sharp soldiers in the army, and there are no fallen soldiers, and there are even fewer generals who have fierce battles." Now the strength of the Jing people has surpassed the ...... of the Qin army."

"How dare you praise the enemy?!" Zhao Zheng couldn't hold it back. He could accept the defeat of the Qin army, and he must not accept that the Qin army was weaker than the Chu army.

According to the law of Qin, those who honor the enemy and fear the hearts of the people will be killed. Li Xin was flustered for a while, and bowed down: "The minister doesn't dare, the minister just talks about the truth." The 150,000-strong army attacked Aocang, and it was fearful that it would not be invincible. ”

"How dare you say it again!" Zhao Zheng was even angrier, but in the end he did not kill Li Xin.

"The widow has made up his mind." Zhao Zheng said again: "With Yang Qing as the general, the army will pull out the camp tomorrow to capture Aocang." ”

"Great King," when Yang Duanhe was about to shout 'Respectful Acceptance', Xiong Qi interjected, "How should the King of Wei reply to his envoys for help?" ”

"Let the King of Wei hold on, wait for the widow to pull out Aocang, and then order the army to rescue him." After Zhao Zheng finished speaking, he looked at Yang Duanhe, who had been still appointed as a general, "The widow limits you to recapture Ao Cang within fifteen days!" ”

"Respectfully obey the order!" A cold sweat suddenly broke out on Yang Duanhe's back, but at this point, he could only obey the order.

Li Xin heard that Zhao Zheng had ordered the 15th to take Aocang, and he wanted to sigh but didn't dare, so he could only look down at the ground.

Xiong Qi's face was solemn, but his heart was happy, although he did not know military affairs, but Luoyang to Aocang is about two hundred and forty miles, it will take eight days on the road, and you have to rest when you arrive at Aocang, if the Chu army can't hold out, then it will take longer, these 150,000 must have gone and have no return, and they will die tragically in Aocang.
