In the partial hall of the Dazheng Palace in Yongcheng, the ancient capital of Qin
Ying Xuan and Ying Jun were talking, and Xiao Chuan, who had just returned, walked in with Ying Que. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xiao Chuan said with a smile, "I didn't expect General Ying and the patriarch to be very leisurely and elegant, Qin and Zhao's alliance is such a big event, and the two of them have made great contributions in it, but they live in a corner and play chess here." ”
Ying Xuan smiled and said, "The art of playing the table, the game is quiet, the chess is round and moving, and the field is based on the law, unless it is won or lost, it is difficult to decide." ”
After hearing this, Yi Xiaochuan pursed the corners of his mouth slightly and said, "The patriarch is very good at this, then I still have something to ask, patriarch, in this alliance, are you playing chess, or this chess piece." ”
Ying Jun saw that Xiao Chuan's tone was not good, and he frowned slightly and looked at Xiao Chuan, Ying Xuan didn't pay attention to Xiao Chuan's provocative words, he took back the chess piece from Xiao Chuan's hand, and said with a smile, "Look, the chess is in my hands at the moment" Ying Xuan put the chess piece on the chessboard and said, "At this moment, it is on the chessboard again." ”
Xiaochuan didn't gnaw, and Yingjun said, "The so-called soldiers are treacherous, it's only about success or failure, so why bother with means." ”
Xiao Chuan was silent, Ying Xuan looked at Xiao Chuan, and suddenly remembered Xiao Chuan's entrustment in Handan, she said to Ying Jun, "You still need to rest more, Que'er, you are here to diagnose Ying Jun's pulse." ”
After Ying Jun and Ying Que made a promise, Ying Xuan bowed his head to Xiao Chuan, and Xiao Chuan came out of the house with Ying Xuan.
Ying Xuan pondered for a while, and slowly said to Xiao Chuan, "According to the information from the secret agents of the Qin Palace, Princess Yingji of Qi Kingdom has entered the Qin Palace, but her temperament is simple, she is not familiar with the world, and she is not liked by the eight sons, the queen of Yingji, and it is difficult to tolerate the princess of Qi, Chang Zhao Yingji went to see, and said to her fiercely, every time Yingji saw the queen return, she often closed the household, and it was not opened for a long time, and the palace people were also accustomed to it. ”
Although Xiao Chuan guessed seventy-seven-eighty-eight, but when he heard Yingxuan say this, he still couldn't bear to be sad and said, "A fresh life is withered like this, a good living person, but with such a result, what kind of reaction does Yingji have?" ”
"Hmph, what is Yingji's reaction, the poison was given by his queen, do you want him to be Yingji alone, and go to embarrass the queen, so that Mi Bazi doesn't like it?"
"Okay, good, good, for an unintentional person, I really have to ask this question, so how can King Yingji of Qin explain to the king?"
"Driven by the benefit, the benefit is in the people, the benefit is scattered, although the king of Qi is not the king of Qin, but he will not raise a country's troops to attack Qin for a Yingji, not to mention that at this time, if the country of Qi wants to restore the country and repel the Yan country Le Yi and others, it is still necessary for the state of Qin to give it a round or two, how can there be any dissatisfaction, the state of Qin is at a loss, the king of Qin knows, the eighth son of Mi knows, and the king of Qi does not know, what the state of Qin wants to do is nothing more than to appease, and what the country of Qi needs most is not these, hehe, this is the exchange of interests."
"Okay, good, Qi Qin did this, I can't comment on it, then, how did the princess of Qi get to see King Qin Yingji that day, and the person who defeated my friend Xiong Wuwei that day was...?" Ogawa didn't continue.
Ying Xuan looked at Xiao Chuan's eyes and replied, "You guessed right, that Xiong Wuwei is the Mo family's torch Liu Yan's disciple, ordinary people can't defeat him, but unfortunately, his opponent is Bai Qi, even a famous general like Xi Wu was beheaded by Bai Qi, not to mention Xiong Wuwei." ”
Ying Xuan lightly lowered her throat, and then said, "As for how Princess Yingji got to see Yingji, hey, what is the difficulty of this matter, you need to know, as long as you have a heart, you can naturally see it, not to mention that money and silk things are the easiest to move people's hearts." ”
Xiao Chuan was silent for a long time after hearing this, he closed his eyes and said, "There is a Lao patriarch, Xiao Chuan understands." ”
Ying Xuan nodded and reassured, "Don't think about it for too long, you can find me if you have something." ”
Xiao Chuan opened his eyes and looked at Ying Xuan and said, "Okay"

Yingjun's body is no longer in trouble, at this moment is wielding a long sword in a remote place in the palace, Xiaochuan has nothing to do, when he wanders around, he happens to meet Yingjun, Xiaochuan sees Yingjun's sword quickly, the moves are simple, but very effective, and he can't help but sigh secretly, "It is worthy of being a battle-hardened person, you need to know that on the battlefield, the battle between the two armies is extraordinary, and a useless action on the battlefield will not play any role except for consuming your own strength, and sometimes you will even bring yourself to death." ”
After a set of swordsmanship dances, Xiao Chuan clapped his hands gently.
Yingjun smiled and said to Xiao Chuan, "See laugh, see laugh, why did Brother Xiao Chuan come to such a remote place?" ”
"It's not a big deal, it's just idle and boring, the general's body has just recovered, so don't overwork."
"Hey, it's not that the general is anxious, but now the King of Qin has sent the Sixth Route Army to attack the Chu State, and although Yingjun can't lead the troops in front of the battlefield, he also knows that the northwest border of the Qin State, whether it is the Rong people or the Zhao State, needs to be on guard at all times, and only by returning to the barracks as soon as possible can we add a little strength to the southern expedition of our Qin State."
Xiao Chuan nodded and said, "Although this time Wei Ran and Qi Rong led 100,000 troops, Bai Qi led 100,000 troops, Sima Cuo led 100,000 troops, Sima Terrier led 100,000 troops, Wang Yi led 100,000 troops, Zhang Ruo led 100,000 troops, looking at the hundreds of thousands of horses and horses, but 600,000 people and horses, what can really work, hehe, I don't know how many people can there be?" ”
Yingjun also nodded heavily and said, "Although the old general Sima Cuo is old, he is not a problem to march and fight, and Sima Terrier has not led the troops for a long time, but he has been eating and living in the barracks with the old general since he was a child, and he is very familiar with the affairs of the army, so it should not be bad, as for Bai Qi's way, there is naturally no need to worry too much, for today's plan, what I am worried about is Wei Ran, Wang Di, Zhang Ruo's three roads, those three are the backbone of the Empress Mi and Wei Ran's faction, and this time Wei Ran is personally in charge, I am afraid that it is not good." ”
As a person of later generations, Xiao Chuan naturally knew the victory or defeat of this campaign, and even the causes and consequences, he said to Ying Jun without worry, "In fact, these three roads, it is precisely because of Wei Ran and others that the general does not need to worry too much, and Xiao Chuan is worried about it, but it is the old general Sima Cuo." ”
"Why is that?"
"The general must also know that in these three roads, Bai Qi is young and strong, famous, and the Chu people will not be strong to knock hard, but the old general is different, you need to know that the old general Sima Cuo has gone through three dynasties, experienced a hundred battles, and has made great achievements, if the Chu people gather the strength of a country and attack the old general, how can the old general be undefeated?"
"This?"
"The general did not find many strange things in this battle, one of them, that Wang Di attacked the Chu army's Heze, Dingtao, and Cao counties, which were originally free from the border areas of the Chu State, and the Chu State basically had no troops here, and these places were originally very unfavorable to the control of the Chu people, even if the Qin people did not send troops at this moment, the Chu State did not gain much here, and such a small three places, but it was necessary to use 100,000 strong soldiers here, isn't it surprising that this matter is not surprising?"
Hearing this, Ying Jun's weather-beaten face furrowed his eyebrows deeply, looking more and more old, Xiao Chuan couldn't help but sigh, he continued, "Second, Wei Ran Mirong's 100,000 army set off from the land of Shangnan, and after hearing the detailed announcement, it has not yet left the Qin realm, and the speed has to be impressive, then Wei Ran Mirong's army was originally scheduled to pull out Dengzhou, according to the current speed, I am afraid that it will not be able to reach the designated position in a year, let alone fight." ”
"Forget the rest of Zhang Ruo, anyway, he is also the master who does not contribute to the work, basically negligible, if you want me to say that in this matter, the king of Chu Qingxiang is accurate, the three-way Chu army he sent is directly against Bai Qi Yiyi, Sima Cuo, Sima Terrier's grandson, and when these three-way army is defeated, the Qin army will naturally retreat."
"Xiao Chuan is right, in fact, the patriarch has also advised Ying Ji many times, asking him not to send Wei Ran, the three useless divisions, yet" Ying Jun shook his head helplessly, and then said, "I heard that it was Empress Mi who strongly supported it, and said it as loudly as the sky, saying that if you don't send Wei Ran forward, it is inevitable that the Qin people will not think about it, thinking that she and Wei Ran are only thinking about the interests of the Chu State, but never considering the interests of the Qin State, and Ying Ji has no choice but to send these three armies." ”
Xiao Chuan pursed the corners of his lips slightly and said, "There is more than enough success, Wei Ran and others have divided the forces of Bai Qi and Sima Cuo's grandsons, so that their troops are stretched, with only 300,000 people and being divided into three ways, facing nearly 400,000 male soldiers of the Chu army, the situation is worrying, if I am the commander of the Chu army, I will definitely concentrate superior forces to defeat one place, then the danger of the Chu country will be solved." ”
Ying Jun thought so, he humbly asked, "Hey, this matter is what the patriarch and I are deeply worried about, then, if it is Xiaochuan, Ying Jun wants to know, if you are in this situation, how should you solve this dilemma?" ”
"If it were me, I would have put the brakes on the ground, straighten out military affairs, set up ambushes on the spot, wait for reinforcements, observe the opponent by the way, spy on what the enemy is trying to do, adjust tactics, and look for fighters."
Yingjun nodded and exclaimed, "Xiaochuan Guo is a great talent, worthy of being a master disciple of Zhuang Zhou, I have to mention Xiaochuan, Yingjun Mao suddenly opened, I will go to find the patriarch and make arrangements as soon as possible." ”

Qin Palace Empress Dowager Palace
After looking at the bamboo slips, she nodded with her chin slightly, and the people from the palace hurriedly came out of the queue and said to the people standing aside, "The Queen Mother will give her a seat." ”
"Empress Dowager Xie" After the person bowed, she sat down embarrassedly.
Empress Mi looked at it, her face became more and more ugly, she suddenly smacked, threw the bamboo slip in her hand, and the frightened surrounding palace people trembled like a sieve, knelt down one by one, and kept kowtowing and shouting in unison, "The Queen Mother is angry, the Queen Mother is angry." ”
The person who had just been given a seat also stood up in fright at this moment, he was about to kneel down like the palace people, but the queen said coldly, "Sit down, the palace is fine." ”
This person listened to the words of the queen of Mi, and the expressions of the people in Wangzhigong did not dare to disobey, and sat down slowly.
Empress Mi waved her hand, and the palace people hurriedly left in turn after receiving amnesty.
It wasn't until the people in the palace had retreated that Empress Mi said, "You mean, those two children, well, are they in Xianyang now?" ”
"The Queen Mother, the villain went to Yiqu to investigate many times, and finally found out that there was civil strife in Yiqu, but someone went to sow discord, and the villain bought the servants of the nobles in Yiqu, through clues, the villain thought that the person who went to provoke the civil strife in Yiqu must be the head of the Ying clan Ying Xuan, if so, then" The person who spoke, retracted his head under his neck, and muttered "Then, the child should be in the hands of the Ying clan." ”
Empress Mi glanced coldly, an unconcealable anger spread, the frightened man was even more hands trembling, Empress Mi looked at it and sneered, "You stand down, come on, take him down to receive the reward." ”
The palace people outside the hall hurriedly made a promise.
"Ying Xuan, Ying Xuan, if this palace doesn't peel you and cramp, you will be the queen mother of Qin..."
Someone in Yingji's office had already told him what the queen said today, and after Yingji sneaked out of the palace, she sneered to herself: "The queen mother's temper is really good." ”
