The next morning, under the full impetus of Prime Minister Li Dui, Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng, Shangqing Lin Xiangru, and the general Lian Po and his ministers, King Zhao finally agreed to form an alliance.

Originally, for the loss of 20,000 elites, King Zhao was very worried. But I didn't expect South Korea to be so interested, lower its profile, and take the initiative to form an alliance. For the great Zhao soldiers who died in the war, even the war horses were registered for Zhao Guo's inspection.

After King Zhao's vanity was greatly satisfied, he graciously did not pursue the matter. Seeing that even the king was like this, the generals who were originally fighting all died down.

Didn't you see that almost all the magnates reached a decision with King Zhao? At this time, if you dare to speak out, if you don't have a brain, you don't have a brain.

Zhang Ping saw the efficiency of Zhao Guo's affairs, and the morning court meeting had just decided to form an alliance with the Three Jin Dynasty to help each other. In the afternoon, Zhao Guo announced the matter with great fanfare.

Under the strong military pressure of the Qin State, Zhao, Wei, and Han resolutely walked together.

All of a sudden, the nations were astonished.

Will such an alliance be a farce or the beginning of the re-emergence of the Three Jins?

The State of Chu, the State of Qi, and the State of Yan are all waiting to see, and the eyes of the world are focused on Xianyang.

Xianyang City, Qin Palace.

King Qin threw the bamboo slip in his hand to the ground, and the entire hall was silent. The eunuchs didn't dare to come out even more for fear of annoying King Qin.

"What is going on with you? On weekdays, one by one, in front of the widows, they say that the prestige of the Qin State is far and wide, and how many people are pro-Qin in the courts of various countries. But now! Zhao, Wei, and Han became allies within a few days. Are you blind as widows? Where is the person you said was pro-Qin, pull out one for the widow to see! ”

"The king is angry. The ministers are guilty. The ministers in the audience hurriedly knelt on the ground, and there was a voice of accusation.

"You are guilty, and your sins are unforgivable. The alliance of the Three Jin Dynasty, how to implement the strategy of my Great Qin Eastward Expansion, which of you will sue the widows? ”

Everyone bowed their heads and remained silent, at this time, it is better not to speak than to speak. A disagreement is often the crime of killing the head.

"Gongsun Wen!"

"The minister is here." The minister who was called by King Qin hurriedly knelt forward a few steps.

"As a pawn, you boasted in front of the widow a few days ago that now the six countries of Shandong dare not disobey Daqin for half a point, is this what you said about not daring to disobey?"

"Your Majesty, the prince is guilty of death! Ask the king for mercy. Gongsun Wen was so frightened that he begged for mercy on the spot.

"Since you have said that you are guilty of a capital crime, the widow has no choice but to fulfill you." After speaking, King Qin's tone changed, and he said to the guards outside the main hall, "Come on, Gongsun Wen is guilty of bullying the king, and he was pulled out and cut down." ”

After speaking, King Qin ignored Gongsun Wen's pleading voice and turned around to ascend the throne.

The heads of the hundred officials in the main hall were lowered, and they wanted to be buried in the soil. A moment later, the guards came back with Gongsun Wen's head. The breath of the main hall was suffocating.

The ministers saw the power of King Qin even more. The truth of accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger is more deeply rooted in everyone's heart.

King Qin, who had long seen Gongsun Wen's displeasure, finally breathed a sigh, and the killing of Gongsun Wen was just a small warning to Prime Minister Wei Ran, and it also let the ministers know who was the one who decided their lives.

The stick was sacrificed, and it was the carrot's turn.

King Qin sat down with satisfaction and said, "Everyone, get up!" The widow hates the courtiers who deceive the widow the most. The loyalty of all Aiqing is known to the widow. Now that the three Jin Dynasty have formed an alliance, what do you think about Aiqing? ”

Hearing this, the ministers who were close to Wei Ran or swayed from side to side in the past were shocked.

Could it be that what he did on weekdays caused King Qin to be dissatisfied? No, I have to save my image in King Qin's heart immediately.

At that moment, Minister A said: "The alliance between the Three Jin Dynasty is the trouble of my Great Qin's henchmen. The minister thought that if he sent a large army to attack Korea as soon as possible, South Korea would betray Qin, and if he did not attack Korea, he could not set an example of betraying Qin; Korea is the closest to Qin, and the supply is convenient; The three Koreas had just defeated the armies of Zhao and Wei in Huayang, and if they could inflict heavy damage on Korea, the countries would be even more frightened and would not dare to betray Qin. ”

Minister B was also not to be outdone: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that there are two ways to be a soldier, all the way to attack Zhao and all the way to attack Korea, so that the three Jin Dynasty can not take care of the beginning and the end." ”

Minister Bingsheng was afraid that others would steal the limelight from him, so he also jumped out, and said: "Your Majesty, it's better to send troops directly." I have conquered Daliang several times before Daqin, and the path is familiar. The new defeat of the Wei State and the decline of morale are enough to capture the Great Liang in one go. ”

Everyone expressed their opinions one after another, for fear that the King of Qin would not know how loyal he was to Great Qin.

"Prime Minister, why don't you say a few words? Isn't it because you can't look down on any of the Aiqing's buildings? King Qin looked at Wei Ran, who had not said a word.

The hall fell silent suddenly. King Qin's words are intriguing, and if you understand a word, you will know that King Qin is stirring up relations.

"Your king, what the princes have said has a point. In the face of the Three Jin Alliance, my Great Qin's reaction is naturally as fast as possible! I must let the people of the world know that whoever dares to go against my Daqin will end up miserable. ”

"The reason why the minister didn't agree with the ministers' views just now is because the minister is thinking about how to let the king get the maximum benefit at the lowest cost." Wei Ran explained slightly.

"From the perspective of the ministers, it is better to attack Yewang City in Korea. I, Daqin, have already occupied Wendi, and if I go to the wild king again, I will divide Korea into two. If you enter, you can attack the Central Plains, and if you retreat, you can conquer the party. If the party is down, Handan is close at hand, which is convenient for Zhao Guo. ”

"Hmm." King Qin groaned slightly and looked at Bai Qi.

Bai Qi knew that his next words would be disliked by King Qin again, but as a soldier, he should not go against his heart. So he said truthfully: "Your Majesty, the ministers think the same. As seen by the prime minister, from the perspective of the minister, it is true that the cost is the smallest and the profit is the highest. ”

"Oh."

King Qin didn't have any objections this time, he pondered for a while, and said, "Where is Shang Shuling? ”

"The minister is here."

"Immediately drafted an edict, ordering Hu Yang and Wang Yi to lead a large army to cross Yique and directly attack Yewang. Along the way, the counties provide grain and grass, and the army arrives within 15 days, and those who miss the deadline will be beheaded! ”

Shang Shuling hurriedly drafted the edict and presented it to the King of Qin respectfully. King Qin covered the jade seal with a glance.

"Where is Lang Zhongling?"

"The minister is here."

"The widow ordered you to immediately send someone to catch up with Hu Yang and Wang Di's army, and hurry up eight hundred miles to announce the widow's edict."

"Do the king's will." Lang Zhongling hurriedly retired.

The huge war machine of the Qin State was launched, and the various departments were like sophisticated machines, each performing its own duties and closely cooperating.

On this day, the people of Xianyang saw that the Qin palace had sent three groups of envoys. The three small black flags on the horseback indicate that they are transmitting the most urgent military information, and even if the horse hits and kills the passerby, the messenger will not be held responsible.

Seeing the eight-hundred-mile urgent messenger, the Qin people were even a little excited.

In this country where the country is established by force and has no one to stand out for military exploits, no one is more eager for war than the Qin people.

In the past few decades, the eastern and western expeditions, the southern expeditions and the northern expeditions have given the Qin people a taste of the beauty of war, and the Qin people are accustomed to victory and war. The war was just another opportunity for the Qin people to make meritorious contributions.

Five days ago, Hu Yang's 100,000 troops set out from Xianyang and rushed to Yique. For the quota of the expedition, the two or five hundred lords even almost fought.

At this time, the Qin army had such a consensus that going out to fight meant meritorious service. Only meritorious service can obtain a higher title, a higher position of power, and a better life.

Therefore, those who were chosen were naturally overjoyed, and those who were not selected were depressed and depressed. I hope I'll have a chance next time I go on a trip.

More than 300 miles east of Xianyang, the Qin army was already a stone's throw away from Hangu Pass. If you want to come tomorrow, you can go east to Hangu and enter the former Central Plains. It's just that now, more than 300 miles east of Hangu Pass are owned by the Qin State. This expedition was more like a drill.

Just as he was encamping at dusk, Hu Yang finally saw the messenger from Xianyang.

The successive succession of envoys is enough to show how angry the King of Qin was at the alliance of the Three Jins. Hu Yang knew that the opportunity he had been waiting for had finally come.

His current title is only the eleventh-level right chief, and most of his previous meritorious service was to follow Wu Anjun, and it is rare to have the opportunity to lead the army alone.

You must know that for the same big victory, the credit of leading the army alone is very different from the credit of being a deputy.

If we can achieve a big victory this time, it is not impossible to be promoted to three levels in a row.

Wang Di didn't know what the main general thought, and now he was just a twenty-year-old guy. But if you despise him because of his age, you will regret it.

The title of the five doctors is not low, and more importantly, King Qin seems to have some appreciation for Wang Di, a young man.

Of course, the last thing that Qin State lacks is talent, no matter how much he appreciates it, Wang Di has to show enough achievements to prove that he deserves such treatment.

Wang Yu would never tell others how he became acquainted with the King of Qin, and that was the proudest moment of his life. It's just a piece of pastry, a conversation.

The next thing that happened was that Xianyang ordered a large number of thieves to be arrested, and countless heads fell to the ground. And he was inexplicably promoted to the deputy general of this Qin army.

Hu Yang didn't know much about Wang Yi, after all, he had never worked together. Now, in order to conquer Shun Lì, Hu Yang plans to test this young deputy general who is a little excessive.

"You have also seen the king's order, Wang Di. What do you think about attacking the Wild King? ”

"General, please look at the map. Although Yewang is a small city and a small army, it is connected to the river (that is, the Yellow River) in the south, and connects the important Korean town of Chenggao in the southeast, and Xingyang and Xinzheng behind Chenggao have always been the heart of Korea. To the west and north of it is Shangdang County, where there are 100,000 troops stationed in Korea. Therefore, if the Yewang is captured, the Korean Shangdang will become a lonely enclave, and my Daqin will have it at my fingertips. ”

"Well, that's a good point. Do you have any plans for this attack? Hu Yang agreed with Wang's opinion.

Obviously, Wang Yi was very happy to get the approval of the main general, his expression was excited, and he continued: "Just as we know the importance of Yewang to South Korea, how can South Korea not know? Therefore, once our army invades Yewang, Korea will pour all the troops of the whole country to resist. ”

"It can be clearly seen from the map that once the wild king is attacked, it can accept reinforcements from the southeast, west, and north lines, while the army of our Qin State is limited by the prefecture and city, so it can only attack from the southeast of the wild king, otherwise it is vulnerable to the enemy on the back."

As if he suddenly remembered something, Wang Yi added: "The Eastern Zhou Kingdom in the southeast (you can check it out if you are interested, there are two Zhou States at this time, one Western Zhou and one Eastern Zhou, not dynasties) The national strength is weak, and the country is only 20,000 soldiers, so I don't dare to have any opinions." ”

"The east of Yewang is the newly occupied Wendi of our country, and now the three kingdoms of Han, Zhao and Wei are allied, so if the Wei State comes to help, the Wendi is vulnerable to the attack from the Wei State, and it is inevitable that it will not be protected."

Wang Yi expressed his worries, and was just about to build a town to see if he could inform Wendi's guards to go out of the city and join the army. Hu Yang spoke.

"Since the Shang Dynasty changed the law, there has been no one who has been cowardly before a fight and has abandoned the city and fled. Since they had not received the king's order, the defenders of Wendi fought to the last soldier. In other words, as long as we attack the wild king in one go, we can naturally use each other as horns with Wendi to rescue Wendi. ”

Hu Yang's words determined the fate of the three thousand Qin soldiers in Wendi.

Wang Yi had no choice but to say: "This battle is expensive in a fast word, if our army can be taken by surprise, it will be the king of the wild in one fell swoop." Then unite with Wendi, approach Chenggao to the south, and approach Daliang to the east, Han and Wei will give in, and the alliance of the Three Kingdoms will collapse. ”

"If you can't capture Yewang in time, the last general thinks that you should attract the main Korean force to Yewang City and break the Korean army in a battle. If South Korea yields, it will also be able to break the Triple Alliance. ”

"Good. Yu Ben will think the same thing. My Great Qin is invincible in the Central Plains, if the Han army really dares to go out of the city to fight, it will save a lot of trouble! Haha"

"Pass my general order to speed up the march from tomorrow. Be sure to rush to the wild king within ten days. ”

"No!"
