Chapter 37: The Dead Thousands of Miles (4)

The capital of Chu, Ying, the palace of the king of Chu.

King Chu Kaolie was drinking with a group of ministers, and he was in an extremely good mood, drinking and eating meat, and he was extremely happy.

Not only is King Chu Kaolie so happy, but his ministers are all the same, not for anything else, just because they have not received the news of the defeat of the coalition army, and they think that this time the alliance of the five countries will definitely win against Qin.

This is really rare for the Chu State, which has been pressed and beaten by the Qin State for hundreds of years. The state of Chu and the state of Qin have been fighting for hundreds of years, and there are few victories, if the state of Chu can win a battle, it does not need a big victory, only a small victory, it is enough to make the state of Chu rejoice.

Not to mention that this time the Five Nations Alliance took advantage of the good opportunity of the Qin State to attack the Qin State by losing two monarchs in a row, according to their thoughts, it was undoubtedly a victory, and it would not be possible if they were not happy.

"Huh!" King Chu Kaolie picked up the wine jue, drank the wine in the jue beautifully, smacked his lips, put down the wine jue, let out a burst of laughter, and said: "This time, the alliance of the five countries will definitely be able to capture Hangu Pass, and they will definitely be able to enter the pass." At that time, the widow will come to Guanzhong and raze Guanzhong to the ground to vent the hatred of Da Chu! to avenge the king's revenge! ”

"Your Majesty!"

"The revenge of the king must be avenged! Not only must Guanzhong be razed to the ground, but all the Qin people must be killed, leaving no one alive. ”

"How bad is it to kill them all? Men are all killed, of course women have to be kept, especially those beautiful women, and we have to keep them. ”

"Yes, yes, yes! Men all killed! Woman keep! ”

The ministers were busy praising and agreeing, and they even came up with a vicious idea.

"That's a good point!" King Chukaoli nodded heavily, appreciating the proposal of his ministers. said: "There has always been only the royal beauty of Da Chu who married the Qin State. There was no such thing as Da Chu marrying a beauty of the Qin State. This. The widow has to choose the beauties of the Qin State well. ”

The state of Chu was beaten by the state of Qin so that the state of Chu had no power to fight back, and in order to marry the state of Qin, the state of Chu chose a beauty of the clan to marry the king of Qin and married him, wanting to remove the threat of the state of Qin. The mother of King Qin Zhao, Empress Dowager Xuan, is a side branch of the Chu royal family, and Mrs. Huayang is also from Chu and is the granddaughter of Empress Dowager Xuan.

"Your Majesty, the big thing is not good, the big thing is not good......" King Chu Kaolie's words just fell. I saw a chamberlain rushing in in a hurry, with a frightened look on his face and cold sweat on his forehead.

"Shut up! Good you dog! How could such a big thing be bad? Before King Chu Kaoli could speak, Li Yuan's face sank and he shouted loudly.

"Uncle Guo said very well, you don't have long eyes, you don't have long eyes, seeing that the coalition army is about to break through Hangu Pass, the situation is very good, how can it be a big deal?" scolded Li Yuan. King Chu Kaolie thought so and scolded loudly.

"Your Majesty. The coalition forces have been completely destroyed. When the chamberlain saw that the situation was not right, he hurriedly raised his throat and yelled, this roar was incredible, like thunder, shocking the eardrums.

"Good! The coalition has won a big victory, which is really good news. King Chu Kaolie didn't react, he was still thinking about the good side, a smile appeared on his face, and he asked a little strangely: "How can such good news be a big deal?" What nonsense you have! ”

"That's right!" The ministers had a sweet dream, and they took it for granted, but they didn't react.

"Your Majesty, it is the coalition that has been wiped out! If it's not a big thing, what else is a big thing? When the waiter heard this, he was anxious and hurriedly explained.

"What? The total annihilation of the coalition forces? King Chu Kaoli was like a fire burning his buttocks, jumping high, his eyes were round, his mouth was wide open, and his face was in disbelief.

It is not easier for him to believe that this is true than to ascend to heaven.

Not only King Chu Kaolie thought so, but also all the ministers thought so, and they all didn't believe it. Some people even scolded the waiter, saying that he was talking nonsense.

"Your Majesty, who would dare to report such a big event? Here's what happened...... "The waiter was anxious, and hurriedly told the news of the inquiry.

"Shinling-kun! Good you dog, you're as timid as a mouse, and you run away without a fight! "King Chu Kaolie had high hopes for Xinlingjun, and gave him all the longitudinal commanders that Chu had always wanted to be willing to, but he didn't expect Xinlingjun to flee without a fight, leaving behind 550,000 coalition troops, just fleeing for his life, which is too infuriating.

"Whew!" King Chu Kaoli was panting, his eyes were bloodshot, like a demon, if Xinlingjun was in front of him, he would definitely tear Xinlingjun and eat it.

"Your Excellency, something is wrong! Big things are wrong! Just as King Chu Kaoli was about to go berserk, another chamberlain rushed in as if he were flying, and shouted far away.

"What's the bad news?" The angry King Chukaoli did not think about the good side this time, but thought about the bad side: "Say! Even if the sky falls, it's not a big deal. ”

The coalition army was completely annihilated, and Chu Kaoli's plan was in vain, which was bad enough, and there could be no worse thing than this.

However, what the inner servant said was really more terrible than the destruction of the coalition army, and he only heard the inner servant say in a panic: "Your Excellency, the Qin army attacked Chen Cheng and turned Chen Cheng into ruins. ”

"What? The Qin army attacked Chen Cheng? "King Chukaoli did not stand firmly, but sat down on the ground, his face pale, without a trace of blood, as if he had been buried in the earth.

Chen Cheng, which was an important town of the Chu State, was attacked by the Qin State, doesn't this mean that the Qin State is going to use troops against the Chu State on a large scale? This must be the Qin State to destroy the Chu State, this is what King Chu Kaolie is most afraid of, so he can't be afraid.

"The Tiger Wolf Qin State wants to destroy my Great Chu, no, it will never work, we can't sit still, hurry up and move the capital, move the capital!" Some ministers were frightened and busy coming up with ideas.

If the Qin State wanted to attack the Chu State, the Chu State should have mobilized heavy troops to resist it as soon as possible, instead of fleeing. As a minister, the idea of moving the capital is really speechless.

However, the responders only heard a echo and said, "That's right! Gotta move the capital! Hurry up! ”

"Move, you must move, move to Shouchun!" King Chukaoli was a bold monarch who was very much in favor of the proposal to move the capital.

"Your Excellency, something is wrong, the Qin army attacked Shouchun and turned Shouchun into ruins." King Chukaolie's words just fell. Another chamberlain rushed in as if he were flying. I didn't look at the timing either. He raised his voice and yelled.

"What? Shouchun was ruined? King Chukaolie's eyes widened and widened, and later, the corners of his eyes cracked, and blood gushed out. His mouth opened wider and wider, enough to fit two eggs.

"Gege!" King Chu Kaolie's teeth struck each other, and there was a clear sound of teeth striking, and he couldn't stop shaking.

Shouchun was an important town of the Chu State, and its importance was second only to the capital Ying. What's more. Shouchun is the first choice for the Chu State to move its capital, and once the Chu State is in danger of losing the country, it can be moved to Shouchun. At first hearing the news of the destruction of Shouchun, can King Chu Kaolie not be frightened? Can he not be afraid?

At this time, King Chu Kaolie was terrified, as if the Qin army had already hit Yinglai.

"Goo!" King Chukaoli wanted to speak, but he couldn't, and a strange sound came from his throat, like an old hen being wheeled by a rooster.

"Poof!" King Chu Kaolie's face was distorted, and he fell to the ground softly, fainting directly.

"Your Excellency. The Qin army has destroyed all the Huaishui land, and it has all become a waste ......" The chamberlain hurriedly reported the worse military situation. It's a pity that King Chu Kaoli has fainted and can't hear, and the waiters have wasted their efforts.

XXXXXXX

Langxie, located on the seashore, is one of the most important salt farms in Qi country.

Qi is located on the coast of the East China Sea, benefiting from fishing and salt, and has accumulated amazing financial resources, and Qi has become an amazingly powerful warring state among the seven warring states. Once, when King Qi Wei, the name of Qi moved the world, which was eye-catching, it was the strongest Warring States Wei State in the world at that time, and Qi State was not afraid, and it was also called against it. And in the two wars of Guiling and Ma Gui, he defeated the Wei State, which greatly damaged the strength of the Wei State, and finally became a second-rate Warring States, no longer recovering the style of the strongest overlord in the early Warring States period.

The reason why Qi is so strong is that Qi "boils the sea for salt", masters a large amount of salt, and has a hard waist.

If you walk in the country of Qi, you will find that there are salt farms in all coastal places, such as the famous Jimo, there are also many salt farms.

Today's Lang evil is the same as usual, at sunrise, the servants of the salt works are busy, putting the sea water into the pre-dug water storage area, and then blocking the sea water. When the water in the impoundment area is exposed to the sun, it dries up and salt is left. These salts are not yet edible, and there are many impurities, such as dirt and stones. This coarse salt has to be processed again to obtain edible salt.

"Rumble!" While he was busy, he heard an earth-shattering hoof sound.

"What's that sound?"

"It's so loud, like a march."

The busy salt farm helpers were puzzled, and they all raised their heads and looked to the west.

I saw a huge dark cloud appear in the west, connecting the sky to the ground, which was very terrifying and gave people a sense of depression.

"The clouds are rising, and it's going to rain?" The frightened saltworks helper raised his head and looked at the sky, only to see a red sun hanging high, and the sky was blue and cloudless.

"If it's not raining, how can there be thunder?"

"Drought thunder, drought thunder, do you understand?"

The saltworks helper was discussing when he saw the dark cloud getting closer. Underneath the dark clouds is a galloping army. This army was extremely strong, horsemanlike, and galloped with earth-shattering power, which made people palpitate.

"Army, really army, this is the army of Daqi? The army of Great Qi is not so good. ”

"Although Daqin's skilled fighters are famous all over the world, they don't have such momentum."

The saltworks helper saw it in his eyes and was even more puzzled.

"Look, that's the word 'Qin', this is Qin Jun!"

"Qin Jun? You can tell it, how could Qin Jun come here? ”

"Your eyes widen, and you can see clearly, the flag is clearly written."

"There is a 'Qin' character written on the banner, but this can't be said to be Qin Jun? Could it be that the army of Great Qi couldn't defeat the Qin army and capture the banner of the Qin army for a while? ”

Although the banner of the Qin army was clear, these salt factory helpers still did not believe it. Qin and Qi are too far apart, since the rise of Qin, there has been no Qin army attacking Qi, it is easier to make them believe that this is Qin, it is better to make them believe that the sun rises in the west.
