Chapter 10: Eastward Expansion?

Qin Yiren was made the grandson of the prince and officially established his position as his successor, but this is a vacant position and will not have real power. King Qin Zhao asked Qin Yiren to supervise the country and take charge of military and political affairs, which was to give Qin Yiren real power, and Qin Yiren was no longer only a royal grandson with honorable and empty positions, but a royal grandson with real power.

This hand was so big that it was beyond everyone's expectations, and it would be impossible for everyone not to be shocked.

Qin Yiren glanced at King Qin Zhao, whose face was gray, and felt a chill in his heart, King Qin Zhao's time was really running out, otherwise, he would not be in such a hurry to transfer power.

Of course, King Qin Zhao did this, and there was also the consideration of training Qin Yiren to familiarize him with military and political affairs first, more because he had physical problems.

"Fan Sui, Bai Qi, Sima Terrier, Prince, Wang Taisun, Wang Qian, Meng Wu, Datian Ling, Cai Ze, and Tingwei stayed, and the rest were scattered." King Qin Zhao waved his right hand.

"No." The ministers received the order and gave the salute to retire.

"Let's go to the study." King Qin Zhao walked in the head, and Qin Yiren and they hurriedly followed.

"Inhuman, come." King Qin Zhao waved at Qin Yiren, a smile on his face.

Qin Yiren hurriedly followed and said, "Father, what do you command?" ”

King Qin Zhao opened his mouth to speak, thought about it and closed his mouth again.

Others don't know why, Qin Yiren has already understood, he wants Ying Xuan to participate in this discussion. King Qin Zhao thought so, not only because he liked Yingxuan, but also because he wanted Qin Yiren and Yingxuan to reconcile, so as not to cause fratricide.

"Please also ask the eldest father to be gracious and allow the third uncle to participate in the deliberations." Qin Yiren didn't take Yingxuan, a simple-minded person with developed limbs, in his eyes at all, and he didn't have much of this kind of discussion. No less. There is no need to hurt King Qin Zhao's heart.

"Huh." King Qin Zhao let out a burst of laughter. It's very gratifying.

Qin Yiren is really a smart person, he knew it before he said it, and offered to let Ying Xuan participate in the deliberations, which shows that Qin Yiren still thinks about the love of flesh and blood, is there anything more pleasing to King Qin Zhao?

King Qin Zhao held Qin Yiren's hand and patted it a few times on the back of his hand, extremely approving. Pulling Qin Yiren towards the study.

Handan, Le Yi's residence.

Le Yi was dressed in regular clothes, wearing a hood, sitting in the pavilion, and he was calm.

Le Jian looked at Le Yi and wanted to speak, but he couldn't help but say nothing.

"Occasionally, if you have something to say, just say it." Le Yi looked at it in his eyes and said.

"Dad, Qin Yiren is on this expedition. Fought so many victories and occupied large swaths of land and cities. The territory of the Qin State is extremely vast, no smaller than the Chu State, its public products have increased sharply, and the national strength of the Qin State has increased, should the Qin State go eastward in a big way? Le Jian hurriedly said what he thought in his heart, and said: "As I expected, this time the Qin State will advance eastward, and it will be able to go down in one day." ”

Le Yi shook his head slowly and said, "Son, you think too easily. In one day, how difficult it is! Qin Yiren went out on this expedition, destroyed dozens of countries, and occupied large areas of land and cities, and the territory of Qin was wider, the mouth was more, and the products were more abundant, which was better than that of Chu. If you're just staring at that, you're wrong. ”

"Ugh." Lejian was a little incredulous, and after a little hesitation, he said, "This is a thing recognized by the world." ”

"Universally recognized?" Le Yi couldn't help but be a little amused, and said: "The world recognizes that Qin State is a tiger and wolf, is Qin really a tiger wolf?" Those who say that Qin Guo is a generation of tigers and wolves are all incompetent people! ”

Le Yi is a great talent, of course he knows why Qin Guo is named a tiger and wolf, it is not that Qin Guo is really a tiger and wolf, but that those who scold Qin are incompetent and cannot defeat Qin on the battlefield, so they can only rely on scolding to vent their anger.

"They don't see the crisis in the Qin State." Le Yi stood up and said, "If the Qin State advances eastward at this time, it will fall into a bitter battle, and the gains outweigh the losses. The best way is for Qin to postpone its eastward advance and resolve Qin's crisis first. It doesn't take much time, it only takes three or five years, and the Qin State will go east again, and it will definitely be one day long. ”

After pacing a few steps, Le Yi continued: "King Qin, Bai Qi, and Sima Terrier are military generals who want to advance eastward in a big way. However, Fan Sui's wisdom is eternal, he will not fail to see the crisis of the Qin State, and he will try his best to prevent the Qin State from advancing eastward. With Qin Yiren stopping it, the Qin State would not advance eastward at the moment no matter what. ”

Speaking of this, the tone of the music room was slightly higher, and he said, "If Qin Yiren can't stop the Qin State from advancing eastward now, it will disappoint me too much!" ”

It is recognized in the world that the Qin State is about to advance eastward, but Le Yi thinks that the wisest thing for the Qin State to do at the moment is not to go eastward, which is too unbelievable.

"Dad, what is the crisis in the Qin State? How could I not see it? Le Jian asked stunned.

If it weren't for Le Yi's words, he would definitely think it was crazy.

King Qin's Palace, Upper Study.

King Qin Zhao led a group of people in and asked them to sit down. It didn't take long for Ying Xuan to come, and Ying Xuan's face turned blue at this time, and it was obvious that eighty rods were not so comfortable, even if he had thick skin and thick flesh.

When Yingxuan arrived, he glared at Qin Yiren fiercely, very dissatisfied, King Qin Zhao snorted coldly, he shivered, and had to sit down honestly.

King Qin Zhao glanced at the group of people and said, "Gather you together today, and discuss nothing else, only the matter of advancing eastward......"

"Buzz!" There was a buzz.

If it weren't for last year, because the Xiongnu went south, they mistook this matter, and the Qin State would have already entered the land of Shandong, and maybe several countries would have been destroyed.

Now, Qin Yiren's class has returned, and because the Qin State has occupied a large area of land and cities, the number of people has increased, and the national strength has increased dramatically, which is a good opportunity to advance eastward.

Although he had known about the meeting of King Qin Zhao for a long time, when he said it, everyone still couldn't help but be excited and surprised, and cheered in unison.

"Huh." Seeing the joy and excitement of everyone in his eyes, King Qin Zhao was particularly happy, and the light in his eyes flashed.

Qin Yiren glanced at everyone, and saw that the ministers such as Bai Qi and Sima Terrier were all roosters who were unspeakably happy and crowing.

If they move eastward, they will be able to make great achievements, and who can not like it?

Only Fan Sui's brows were twisted, and Wang Jian was silent.

"Father, my son, I am willing to lead an army to wipe out the nations." Ying Xuan stood up all the time, begged for his life loudly, patted his chest and promised, "If you can't sweep away the nations, your sons will never return to the army." ”

"Huh." This matter is very pleasing to King Qin Zhao, King Qin Zhao let out a burst of laughter, waved his hand and said, "Sit down." ”

Ying Xuan proudly raised his chin at Qin Yiren, which meant to say, if you don't see it, you should not be proud.

"Bai Qi, are you willing to lead the troops?" King Qin Zhao asked at Bai Qi.

"The minister is willing to lead the army into battle." Can Bai Qi be unwilling to do such a beautiful thing?

Looking forward to the day and night, looking forward to the stars and looking forward to the moon, he finally looked forward to this opportunity, if he was unwilling to lead the army to battle, it would not be in vain.

"Okay." King Qin Zhao was overjoyed, as long as he got up in vain, there was nothing he couldn't do. Bai Qi led the army to fight, and Qin will definitely go down in one day.

"No!" However, at this moment, a discordant voice sounded, and Fan Sui stood up and stopped: "Your Excellency, this is not a good opportunity to advance eastward, please think twice." ”

"Hmph." King Qin Zhao snorted very dissatisfied.

Fan Sui is very popular with him, it can be said that he is obedient to Fan Sui and has great respect, and it is extremely rare to be so dissatisfied. It's really Fan Sui's point, he actually wants to stop the troops. Now is a good opportunity to sweep away the nations and unify China, who doesn't know, who doesn't know?

"Prime Minister, what you said is wrong, very wrong." Ying Xuan, who was eager to perform, grabbed the conversation and said: "Great Qin is not what it used to be, whether it is the land and city, or the public property, it has increased a lot, and the strength of Great Qin has far exceeded the past, if you don't fight at this time, when will you wait?" ”

"yes." A chorus sounded, coming from the mouths of King Qin Zhao and Bai Qi.

Although Yingxuan was short-tempered and didn't think deeply about things, what he said this time was that every word hit King Qin Zhao and their hearts, and they agreed from the bottom of their hearts.

"Your Majesty, please let me do my best." Fan Sui didn't seem to hear Yingxuan's words.

"Okay, you say." Although King Qin Zhao was impatient, he was still patient out of respect for Fan Sui.

"What the third prince said is true, but does the monarch know about the crisis of Great Qin?" Fan Sui asked rhetorically.

"Crisis?" Ying Xuan hurriedly said: "Prime Minister, didn't you wake up?" Great Qin is now much stronger than in the past, how can there be a crisis? Prime Minister, you have always been wise, but this time you are confused. ”

This man is really simple-minded and has well-developed limbs, and he speaks so bluntly that he is very choking.

However, King Qin Zhao did not reprimand him this time, but praised him greatly, because he thought the same.

Not only did King Qin Zhao think so, but even Bai Qi also agreed.

"Father, the prime minister's wisdom is eternal, and his insight is beyond the reach of others. Since the prime minister entered Qin, he has never disappointed his father, and asked his father to let the prime minister speak. Qin Yiren spoke at the right time and said, "The rest of the people must not interrupt the prime minister's words for no reason. ”

"Hmm." King Qin Zhao thought that this was reasonable, since Fan Sui entered Qin, he had never disappointed him, and it didn't take much time to hear what he said.

Fan Sui glanced at Qin Yiren and appreciated it very much, it seemed that he not only saw the crisis of the Qin State, but Qin Yiren also saw it.

"Your Majesty, please settle an account with Rong Chen, and your Majesty will know what the crisis of Great Qin is." Fan Sui wrenched his fingers and began to settle the score, and said: "In the Battle of Changping, although Great Qin was victorious, it paid a painful price, nearly half of the 580,000 troops were killed and wounded, and nearly 300,000 troops were lost in this battle. Then there was the attack on Handan, the battle of Zhongmu, although the battle of Zhongmu Daqin achieved an unprecedented victory, beheading 700,000 people, but there were also tens of thousands of casualties. Then there were troops to the north to conquer the Xiongnu, exterminate Lin Hu, Loulan, Lou Fu, Xiu Tu, Hun Xie, Qiang, and pacify the Western Regions, with tens of thousands of casualties. ”

Speaking of this, Wei Yi paused and said, "This is 400,000 casualties." ”

"So much?" King Qin Zhao's face was incredulous, and after careful calculation, his face turned gloomy. (To be continued......)
