Chapter 1200: Chang'an Ba Shang (II)

"Zhao Wuxian wants us not to resist?"

Zipu unfolded the letter, his old eyes scanned back and forth, and his thin lips under his white beard showed a sneer: "He is really not satisfied with capturing Xizheng, and even Weinan is not enough......"

After saying that, Zipu waved the letter, and looked at the son who was willing to be a carrier pigeon for Zhao Wuxian: "Zhao Guo, this time I want to completely annex Qin State and kill my society!" Does the prince know? ā€

"The social security of the Qin State will be preserved. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 "The Marquis of Zhao promised that as long as the Qin people disarmed and sacrificed the lands of Qidong and Weinan, they could continue to establish a state in Yongcheng and Longxi as Zhao's small sect. ā€

Weinan is the land of Feng Ho, Qidong is the north bank of Weishui, and Longxi is the territory of Qin in the west of Longshan, plus Qiyang Yongdu, this is the only four remaining territories of Qin, so that it can barely establish a country, once the four go to the second, Qin will be reduced to the small state in the west more than 300 years ago.

"Qidong, Weinan, what the prince said is really light......" The anger of the chief of the palace completely exploded.

"I think that back then, King Ping moved eastward, and my Qin manpower was meritorious in protecting the Son of Heaven, so the first monarch Xianggong was named a prince. The Son of Heaven nominally gave Qin Guoqi and abundant land, in fact, every inch of land was the old Qin people, all the people were soldiers, attacking the dog Rong, only a little bit to take over, from Xianggong to Mu Gong, more than 100 years, Qin does not know how many monarchs and sons of the Gong clan died in the war with the Rong and Jin people, and finally rose to become a great power in the West! ā€

"The ancestors burst into frost and dew, and cut down thorns, so as to have a land of size. Today, the prince lives in a foreign country all the year round, and has no teacher education, so he does not know the hardships of his ancestors, and he does not pity the land, and wants to give it to others, such as abandoning grass mustard! Is there still less land ceded to Zhao by my Qin State? The nine cities in Hexi and the ten cities in Jingyang have all fallen. Even so, he only got ten years of peace, and now, Zhao Bing is here again. It can be seen that the land of Qin is limited, Zhao Wuxian is insatiable, and the devotion is complicated, and the invasion is more urgent! He kept saying that he would protect the Qin State Society, but in the end, it would inevitably be subverted! Dare to ask the prince, how can there be a reason to put out fires with salary? ā€

The quilt Pu Yi was severely reprimanded, and the son was ashamed and embarrassed, and he just wanted to find a gap to get into, but he still held back and forced himself to continue.

"The ancestors had a hard time starting a business, how could the boy not know? However, the gap between the strength of Qin and Zhao is too great, the Zhao army is more than 100,000, the soldiers are strong and strong, and the armor soldiers are sharp, and they have broken through the two dangerous passes of Zheng and Lantian and penetrated deep into the hinterland of our Qin State. This is only half of the army of Zhao, if Zhao Hou is willing, he can do his best in the eastern counties and send another 100,000 troops into Qin. ā€

"And the Qin army is less than 30,000, and many elites died in the battle with Yiqurong, and the Qin Ruishi, who was painstakingly managed by the chief, was also defeated in the battle of Zheng and the battle of Lantian. The boy entered the barracks, but he saw that the soldiers were not in good armor, the blades were backward, and there were even spear-bearers of old and young! Relying on these people to fight a decisive battle with the Zhao army is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg! Only the Qin country cannot be the enemy of Qiang Zhao, if the chief of the great concubine blindly resists, not only will it not help, but it will even bury the lives of more than 20,000 people, and it will also make the Qin country impossible to recover, and it will perish, Zhao Wuxian has always been merciless to the rebels......"

"So what?" Zipu snorted, "The old man wants to let Zhao Wuxian know that the Qin State can be conquered, but the Qin people will not be like Zheng and Wei's cowards, who will disarm and surrender!" ā€

With a wave of his hand, he threw the letter into the brazier, and it landed on the coals, and the four corners of the letter paper rolled up, blackened, and caught fire......

Childe couldn't believe it, "Chief, are you crazy?" This is Qin Guosheji's last chance to be preserved! ā€

However, Zipu gave Gongzi a backhand slap.

"The prince has really been away from Qin for a long time, and he already thinks of himself as a Zhao person, and he doesn't know what a Qin person is. What are the Qin people? The Qin people are a stone thrown in the west, peeled off by the wind and rain, and the dark shell is hard gold and jade, which would rather be bent than bent. That's right, the Qin State has just fought a bloody battle with Yiqu now, and the dead have not had time to be buried, and the wounded have time to adopt in the future, so they hurriedly came here to resist the Zhao army, and if they fight, they will be defeated. But so what? How can you say that you have no clothes, and you are in the same robe with your son, Wang Yuxing is a teacher, and you can repair my spear. Let Zhao Wuxian come! The old man is not afraid of him! ā€

"Chief! Your move will ruin the ...... of the Qin State."

The cheek that had been slapped just now ached, but Childe screamed with all his might.

"The old man and the people of Yongdu may be willing to die in battle with you, but what about the ordinary soldiers outside? What about the millions of Qin people? Do you think so? ā€

Gongzi pointed to the outside of the tent and said: "The Qin State was defeated outside, the Dashu Chang was strict with the law inside, and the people were tired of labor and had long lost the will to fight. On the way to Bashang, the boy saw that the fields that should have been ploughed in spring were barren, the people were displaced, and there were vegetables on their faces, and they all said that they did not want to fight again. Dashu Chang would rather die than give in, and want to follow the example of the first to avoid death, but he has fulfilled himself, but please don't let more innocent people die! ā€

Zipu laughed: "Innocent? If the Qin people fight, they are all soldiers, and there is no one outside. If Qin dies, what reason will the Qin people, who can't even save their own country, survive in the world again? Instead of being a Zhao slave, it's better to be a Qin ghost! ā€

He pointed to his feet and swore: "If Zhao Wuxian has the ability, he will step on the corpses of these two or thirty thousand people, the loser has nothing to complain about, and the gate of Yongcheng will be open for him; But if we are lucky to win, then Zhao Guo will be careful, I will repay the national shame, blood will not be shed, and death will not be truce! ā€

"Crazy, crazy!"

Childe took a few steps back, frightened and frightened away from the crazy old man, he now knew that he could not persuade the man in front of him no matter what.

Gongzi's thorn, who was shattered by Zhao Wuxian's serial scheme, could no longer understand Zipu's spirit of preferring jade to be broken rather than complete. In his opinion, how to survive and lie dormant under Qiang Zhao's wings is the most important thing......

He is not a coward! He will be responsible for the decisions he makes to the end!

took out the Wu Xian jade ring in his arms as a token of the prince of Qin, and he said sternly: "Since the chief of the concubine can't listen to the persuasion, then I, as the prince of Qin, will ask the chief to stop the army!" ā€œ

Zipu was unmoved, and said proudly: "With the armor on his body, except for the king, no one can give orders to the old man." ā€

After being silent for a moment, Childe gritted his teeth and raised his head.

"What if, I am now the monarch of Qin!?"

……

Zipu's complexion changed suddenly, as if a strong shield that had been painstakingly woven was easily broken by the enemy with a sharp spear.

The prince said...... Why? ā€

"Chief, don't hide it anymore." Childe's piercing eyes welled up with tears, and he untied his coat, revealing a plain white inside.

"My father was sick in Dazheng Palace half a month ago, this news, the chief can hide it from the soldiers of the three armies, so he thinks he can hide it from Zhao Ren and me?"

After Zipu groaned, he said, "Prince, how did you find out?" ā€

"There are Zhao Hou's spies everywhere in Yongcheng, even in the Dazheng Palace, and the speed at which the news reaches Zhao Hou is no slower than that of a fast horse to Qin Ying...... As long as this news was spread by Zhao Hou, the Qin army would inevitably be shaken and collapsed without a fight. Chief, you've been defeated! ā€

"Yes, old man...... It's defeated. ā€

Seeing that the news he had worked hard to conceal was exposed, Zipu smiled bitterly, he sat back on the couch weakly, he was seventy years old, and after being seriously injured, he had to bear the burden of the entire Qin State, he was really tired.

"Using the crown prince to defeat the old man in person, Zhao Wuxian's plan is really vicious. In the end, the old man is loyal, and the office doesn't accept the love of the old man? ā€

Facing Zipu, who was ten years old again, Gongzi's heart was full of guilt, but he still wiped his tears and said: "The first monarch only had one son, and now, you only have two ways, one is to kill me on the spot, set up someone else as the king, and take the Qin people to die together." ā€

Zipu didn't respond for a long time, and it was impossible to kill the heir and set up another one.

Gongzi breathed a sigh of relief and solemnly announced: "Since this is the case, then I will succeed to the throne in the army, be the seventeenth monarch of the Qin State, remove Tu Zipu from the post of commander, remove the armor of the three armies, abandon the blade, and surrender to the Zhao army!" ā€

……

For a long time, Gongzi Thorn thought that he was a Qin person wearing the skin of a Zhao person, but now, he was stunned to realize that he was probably wrong, he was just a Zhao person who thought he was a Qin person, but his inner essence had long been assimilated by the customs of Yecheng......

When he was in Yecheng, he was also fortunate to enter the palace of learning, listen to those Zhao Guoshi people openly debate in it, praise and disparage characters, and spread their respective cultural concepts.

Among them, there is a special genre, known as novelists, these people have no other hobbies, they like to make up stories, because these people are mainly Zheng Guoren, and the object of story satire has become the Song people that Zheng people hate the most......

The seedlings were promoted, the savages were exposed, and the rabbits were guarded, and the folk tales of the Song people were collected by them and widely circulated.

The Song people have a lot of power in Yecheng, and naturally they are not to be outdone, and they began to fight back.

Of course, more stories are still aimed at the Chu people in the south.

Carving a boat for a sword, painting a snake to add feet, contradicting himself, Ye Gong is a good dragon...... Some of the things that happened in the Chu State were materialized into these stories and became a joke that the people of the Central Plains talked about. It is said that many stories are still circulated from the Changle Palace, and some people even say that the person who collected these stories is Zhao Hou, but this statement is scoffed at by most people, how can a dignified prince do such a boring thing.

But what impressed Childe the most was a story called "Fighting for the Tiger".

According to legend, the ghosts of people who were bitten to death by tigers did not dare to go to other places, so they became ghosts around tigers. The ghost guides the tiger, and when it encounters a hidden mechanism or trap on the way, it tells the tiger to change its route. When a person encounters a tiger, the belt will be untied, and this is all done by the ghost, the tiger eats the person, and the ghost then eats the remains of the ghost, so as to maintain the soul from dispersing......"

He now felt that he was a despicable ghost who had forgotten his roots, and Zhao Wuxian was the bloodthirsty tiger......

This time, he categorically denied the jade crushing tactics of the chief of the great concubine, and led the Qin people to give up resistance.

On the same day, after Gongzi Assassin relieved Zipu of military power in the name of the new monarch, more than 20,000 Qin soldiers in the Qin camp in Bashang were all unarmed and surrendered to the Zhao army.

The Zhao army crossed Bashui one after another, collected and surrendered troops, and although the Qin soldiers were a little depressed, they were relieved.

Because those who insisted on fighting to the death had already left with Zipu, a total of more than 4,000 people, all of whom were the children of the Gong clan and their soldiers who were unwilling to surrender. Unlike Chu and Zheng, the nobles of Qin were still staunch defenders of the state before they had time to become corrupt. Gongzi turned a blind eye to their departure, although he strongly advocated obedience to the Zhao State to avoid the complete destruction of the Qin State, but the eggs could not be put in one basket.

The next day, Zhao Wuxian also personally commanded the main force to arrive at Bashang and met with Gongzi Thorn.

"Childe...... No, it should be called Qin Jun now. ā€

He was very satisfied with Gongzi's choice of thorn, even if the Qin people did not surrender, they only needed a decisive battle to destroy the withering and decaying, and the Qin land could still be captured, but it was necessary to sacrifice many Qin and Zhao soldiers in vain. After the same Xuanniao, the brothers are on the wall, if they can shed less blood, let's shed less.

"Qin Jun's choice is to save millions of Qin people from military disasters, and he should be another generation of masters after Qin Mugong!"

Gongzi Thorn also has only one hope: "I also hope that the prince can fulfill his promise and keep Qin's society, and Qin is willing to be the western domain forever and guard the western region for the prince from now on!" ā€

"Since then, Zhao and Qin have been a family, Qin, as Zhao's small sect, will rest with Zhao! If Zhao does not die for a day, Qin will be able to survive for a day. ā€

After speaking, Zhao Wuxian smiled again: "It's just that, in the eyes of the widow, the west does not need to be defended, but to be developed." ā€

After throwing down this inexplicable sentence, Zhao Wuxian asked some of the people to stay behind to guard and surrender the troops, and disbanded these Qin people who had been recruited from all over the country and returned to their hometowns. He himself ordered Gongzi to use the black flag of Qin to open the way, and the 100,000-strong army followed closely and continued to march westward, preparing to occupy Yongdu and complete the merger of Qin.

Thirty miles after leaving Bashang, Zhao Jun passed by a fertile land on the south bank of Weishui.

I don't know why, Zhao Wuxian's heart was moved, and Zhu Ma asked Zhai Huang: "Where is this?" ā€

Zhai Huang replied: "Junhou, this is the former capital of Zong Zhou, Hojing, but only the ruins are left. ā€

That's right, Zhao Wuxian was relieved in his heart, this was the city he had lived in for a long time in his previous life. Bell and Drum Tower, Forest of Steles, Big Wild Goose Pagoda, as well as fragrant meat sandwich buns, oily noodles...... Just like when he passed through Huashan, countless memories came out of his heart, not from his mind, but imprinted in the deepest part of his soul, although he was a human being, it was still as clear as new.

The trajectories of the past and present lives coincided here, and when his heart was surging, Zhao Wuxian couldn't help but admire: "Thousands of miles of fertile fields, great rivers and circulation, with high and deep, majestic in the world, this is really the country of abundance!" If this happens, Yongzhou can be stable for a long time. ā€

Zhao Hou's horsewhip swung on this land, as if to draw the outline of the city more than 2,000 years later, and he vowed: "After Zhao and Qin are reunited, the widow will build a new western capital here, and the name will be ......."

"Chang'an!"
