Chapter Eighty-Three: Wang Qian

The CRRC government order, it sounds like there is a government order, it is quite majestic, but it is actually the official position of the king of Qin who is in charge of the frame and the public opinion, so when the king wants to travel, Zhao Gao must be ready, and when the king and Wei Guolao get into the thatched house of the old general Wang, he can't be around.

Not only that, Zhao Gao even had to stand outside the circle surrounded by the guards.

Wang Jian in the thatched hut is dressed as an old peasant, his gray hair can't hide the sharpness of his eyes, to say that the most eye-catching thing about his body is his tall figure and walking style, which makes it hard to believe that this is an old man who is close to the sixtieth year.

Seeing Yingzheng coming, Wang Jian invited people into the house without being humble or arrogant, poured wine and laughed at himself: "The king came from afar, the humble house is shabby, and it is rude." ā€

Ying Zheng bowed before taking the wine: "Why should the teacher be like this, with your merits and what you have gained over the years, you shouldn't be so hard, this should be known to outsiders, and I think that the widow is unwilling to treat the heroes well." ā€

Wang Jian didn't answer, but smiled slyly and asked, "I don't know if the king has such a feeling that the food in other people's bowls is extraordinarily fragrant?" ā€

Although Ying Zheng was inexplicable, he still nodded: "It's true, these years have been the widows to fight in the east and west, and every time they have gained from the war, they are extremely happy." ā€

"So, I'm waiting for the king to give me a mansion."

Ying Zheng couldn't cry or laugh: "Old general, haven't I already prepared it for you in Xianyang?" ā€

"That's different, that's the general's mansion, the little rabbit cub in the family has also grown up, it's good that the mansion belongs to him, I'm old, I always want to return to the roots, but I've never covered the house after a lifetime of fighting, I think it's better for the king to give me one here."

Ying Zheng has been taught the art of war by Wang Jian since he was a child, and this old general is both a monarch and a master and apprentice, on the way to come, he has thought about being reprimanded, and he has also thought that Wang Jian will shirk in every possible way, which means that he will ask for a house with his face when he actually meets.

"Old general, these are easy to say, the widow will ask someone to build you a new house tomorrow."

Seeing Wang Jian nodding with satisfaction, Ying Zheng said: "Old General Wang, there is a battle report here, the widow has been restless since he learned about it, and he also asked the old general to go out of the mountain to help and solve problems for the widow." ā€

After Wang Jian took it, he glanced at ten lines and asked Wei Yu next to him: "What do you think?" ā€

"Reasonable, unexpected."

These eight words are very suitable for Wang Qian's mood at this time, he thought that Li Xin would return in vain at most, who knew that he had suffered a big defeat, not to mention the loss of soldiers, and even he was injured, otherwise with Wang Qian's person, he would never be able to sit back and watch the lives of hundreds of thousands of Qin soldiers die on the battlefield.

"Old general, it was indeed a widow who underestimated the enemy before, I don't know if the general can go out of the mountain and help the widow complete the great cause of destroying Chu."

"The king Hugh is in a hurry, you hurried to meet you, and the follow-up matters of this battle have not been arranged, right?"

"Indeed, what does the old general recommend?"

"Twenty acres of fertile land, I just said!"

Ying Zheng had never seen a courtier ask for a reward so bluntly, and after being stunned, he couldn't care about anything else: "The widow should have it!" ā€

"I'm not asking for this, this is for my son, Wang Ben is leading the army now, right? It can make him regain the land of Yingchen, and then turn around to destroy Wei! ā€

"Why did you go to Wei? There are only a few cities left in the Wei State now, which is not a problem, and only the Chu State still makes it difficult for me to sleep and eat. ā€

"Great King, the recapture of Yingchen is precisely to meet the army of the two generals Li Xin and Mengwu, as for the Wei State, because they are an obstacle to our march after all, and the destruction of the Wei State, the next time we attack Chu, we will not repeat the mistakes of the past, and now the morale of our army has been slightly weakened, and we need a battle to destroy the country to revive the army."

After listening to this explanation, Ying Zheng suddenly realized, and asked with a little hesitation: "The walls of Daliang are strong, how can we conquer them in the fastest time?" ā€

Wang Jian is worthy of being a general in his life, and with a rough drawing of his fingers dipped in wine, the entire beam is already on the table: "June is the flood season, you can dig a ditch to divert water to irrigate the city, and within three months, the Wei State will die!" ā€

Ying Zheng felt more and more that this trip was worth it: "The old general has his own furrow in his chest, and the widow admires it, and when he destroys Chu, the general can lead the army to the expedition to fulfill the widow's long-cherished wish." ā€

"How many troops does the king plan to use?"

"Everything is according to what the old general said before, 600,000 troops will be dispatched!"

Wang Jian raised his head and drank the liquor in the bowl, patted the case and got up and said, "You can't do it unless you have a hundred acres of fertile land!" ā€

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€

Ying Zheng was very nervous when he came, so he left all the guards in close proximity outside the hut, which was extremely rare for the King of Qin, who had just been assassinated, and it could be seen from this how much he trusted this veteran.

Of course, there is another layer of consideration, when he is embarrassed, the fewer people he sees, the better, he is ready to be reprimanded by his teacher, after listening to Wei Yi's words, he no longer intends to punish Li Xin severely, after all, this defeat, he also has to bear a lot of responsibility, and he got rid of the old bird in the first battle of flying alone, which made him very embarrassed.

As a result, after talking about it, Ying Zheng's legs were shaking until he left, and he really couldn't figure out why the stern and rigid general in the past suddenly became an old peasant who was greedy for money.

King Qin couldn't figure it out, and there was a little guy who didn't understand: "Grandpa, why are you so greedy for money today, you must know that you will be ten times, and there are greedy and profiteous people who can be bribed, isn't it a taboo for you to do this?" ā€

Wang Qian's eyes moved away from the smoke and dust in the distance, and looked at his teenage grandson, and the furrow on his old face deepened a little: "Have you completed your homework today?" Dare to question the elders, it's really underwhelming! ā€

Wang Li bowed and said: "Back to my father, my grandson's homework today has been completed, but I really don't understand why you are pretending to be greedy, and the king can still entrust you with important tasks." ā€

Seeing his grandson solemnly, Wang Jian sighed and said: "That's because you don't understand the mind of a monarch, let me ask you, if you have ten bows and arrows, and you can only shoot three birds with your archery skills, and this arrow is handed over to Yang Yuji, he can shoot ten birds, do you shoot arrows yourself or give it to Yang Youji?" ā€

Wang Li frowned: "Naturally, it was handed over to Yang Yuji to shoot." ā€

"Yang Yuji is a Chu man, are you sure he won't shoot you with an arrow?"

"This ...... Then give him an arrow, no matter how incompetent his grandson is, he still has the strength to protect himself under an arrow. ā€

Wang Jian nodded and said: "Every king has a fence in his heart, and there is only himself in it. ā€

"So the Father is under his control? However, the sage of "Taigong Liutao" once said: "The king, the sage, the low, take the integrity, and go to the fraud", which is very different from what you do today......"

"Silly boy, you remember to me that getting along with the king is far from being as simple as recorded in the book, and the art of war is not feasible at all times, that is the words of the prince and King Wen of Zhou, how can it be applied to every pair of monarchs and ministers?"

"The eldest father was the king's mentor......"

"If you continue to think like this, it will be a big disaster, let me tell you the truth, this battle will be the last time the old man will go out in his life, and it will be up to you and your father in the future, think about it more!"

Just when Wang Jian reprimanded his grandson, Wei Yi was full of emotion, the old general's behavior could hide from others, but he couldn't help but sigh like Ming Spiegel in his heart: Great Qin Jiangmen, I'm afraid that only Wang Jian can start and finish well, should he also retreat......

PS: Don't complain about the title of grandpa and eldest father, at that time it was indeed called the eldest father, in order to be smooth and easy to read, in this article, I will call grandpa in private, and quote the eldest father when I am solemn.
