Chapter 82: The Eve of the Reign
Ying Ji was the first to speak, and Ying Hua also looked at Sima Cuo with some excitement.
Although the three of them are nearly fifty years old, the years do not seem to have left any wounds on the faces of the three of them, and some only have the endless vicissitudes in their eyes.
Moreover, Ying Ji, Ying Hua and Sima Cuo had a very good relationship in private before they left Xianyang City, and they can even be said to be the three most important pillars of the Qin military.
Even when the Qin army went on an expedition to the land of Bashu, Sima Cuo was able to take command in person and come out on the recommendation of the general, otherwise even if Sima Cuo had monstrous talents, he would not be able to display them.
"General, General Yinghua, I haven't seen you for many years, don't come unharmed!"
Sima Cuo also said with his fists clenched, and there was a rare smile on his face that had some vicissitudes of life over the years.
Sima Cuo's heart is also full of gratitude for Yingji, although Sima Cuo is talented.
However, in the case of the Qin army, where all promotions are based on military merits, even if they are talented, it will take a long time to accumulate military merits.
However, at the beginning, because of the general's insight into heroes, Sima Cuo recommended Sima Cuo to the former king Yingsi, and Sima Cuo did not live up to Yingji's recommendation.
In the war against Ba and Shu, he shined a huge light, directly captured Ba and Shu, and extended the border of Qin to the southwest.
He even wrote Sima Cuo's Art of War, which is definitely one of the world's most famous military books, and it can be said that if Sima Cuo is a thousand miles away, then Ying Ji is Bole.
"General Sima, this time Ji Gongzi took over the throne of King Qin, which is a major event for my Qin State, and it is also a major event in the world, and I am afraid that all the countries in the world will rush to send envoys to Qin!"
"And according to the soldiers sent by Xiangguo, after Gongzi Ji took over the throne of King Qin, he had something to discuss, so Yingjian took Hua Di to return from Northern Xinjiang overnight, it seems that General Sima should have also received an order from Xiangguo!"
Ying Ji said, in fact, the relationship between the members of the Qin royal family has been almost very good since Qin Xiangong passed through Qin Xiangong, Ying Ji and Ying Hua and the first king of Qin Yingsi have even been on the battlefield together, and the brotherly relationship between the three brothers has always been very good.
"That's right, Sima Cuo received an order from Lord Xiangguo!"
"General, Gongzi actually transferred General Shangshang and General Yinghua back from Northern Xinjiang, doesn't Gongzi know the importance of Northern Xinjiang?"
"General Shang and General Yinghua are back together, and the 300,000 Beidi Army in the Northern Frontier of Great Qin is leaderless!"
"If the Xiongnu take advantage of the absence of the two generals, I am afraid that they will directly attack the Great Wall. ”
"And if the Northland Army loses the command of the two generals and causes the Xiongnu to cross the Great Wall defense line and go directly south, it will be a catastrophe for my Huaxia!"
Hearing Sima Cuo's words, Ying Ji didn't say anything, but Ying Hua on the side laughed and said: "General Sima doesn't have to worry, if my brothers don't take these things into account, how dare they return from Northern Xinjiang and put the safety of the entire Huaxia at risk." ”
"Now the Xiongnu tribes are busy competing for the position of Shan Yu, and the internal friction is serious, and they have no intention of going south. ”
Therefore, the last general expected that the Xiongnu would never dare to let only one or several of their tribes go south without uniting themselves. ”
"Besides, even if the Xiongnu go south regardless of their own contradictions, how can it be easy for my 300,000 northern army in the northern border of Great Qin?"
"Sitting on the barrier of the Great Wall, coupled with my 300,000 elites of Great Qin, it is like an iron wall!"
"Even if my two brothers are not in the 300,000 Northland army, they can defeat the Xiongnu, but they can rely on the defense line of the Great Wall to resist the Xiongnu who have lost their head wolf. ”
"And I don't know what about General Sima's land of Bashu?"
"General Sima has a lot of burden, not only to resist the Chu State in the south with General Wang Ling, but also to guard against the Yiqu in the northwest. ”
"Once there is a mistake, then it is possible for my Great Qin to lose this granary of the world that I have obtained with great difficulty!"
And Sima Cuo smiled heartily and said: "General Yinghua is too worried, although Yiqu is the scourge of my Great Qin, it is one of the weakest existences among all the grassland clans. ”
"The army of the Yiqu clan does not exceed 300,000, and it is only good at cavalry combat, and it is not the opponent of the Qin army who is good at battle at all. ”
"Moreover, the terrain of Bashu is extremely complex, and it is not conducive to the deployment of the Yiqu cavalry, so it would be good if my Great Qin army did not take the initiative to attack Yiqu. ”
"If Yiqu comes to attack, although the last general's Bashu army is not as good as the two generals' Beidi army, but the last general's Bashu army is not vegetarian. ”
"At that time, the Great Qin Iron Army will directly meet the head-on attack, and even completely annihilate the main force of Yiqu, so that Yiqu will not have the strength to fight again for at least twenty years!"
After Sima Cuo finished speaking, Ying Ji and Ying Hua glanced at each other, then turned their heads to look at Sima Cuo, and said with a smile.
"Hahaha, since that's the case, then I don't have to worry about the northern and northwest parts of Great Qin!"
"General, General Yinghua, please enter Xianyang City!"
Sima Cuo stretched out his right hand and said with his palm towards the gate of Xianyang City.
"General Sima, please!"
Ying Ji also said in return, and then the three of them laughed again: "Since this is the case, then I will wait for the three of us to go together!"
After speaking, the three of them walked side by side and entered Xianyang City together, and the Qin soldiers of the headquarters carried by the three of them also entered Xianyang later.
......
"Minister, Yingji!"
"Minister, Yinghua!"
"Minister, Sima is wrong!"
"See His Royal Highness Childe!"
In the palace of King Qin, Sima Cuo and the three of them knelt down directly on one knee and said to Yingji, Qin law stipulates that the generals of the Qin army only need to kneel down on one knee to salute when they are wearing armor!
Although Yingji is not the king of Qin now, there is no need to perform the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, but now as long as a person who understands everything, he can know that the position of the king of Qin is none other than Yingji.
Ying Ji looked at the young man standing in front of him, and his heart was full of sighs, remembering that when he and Brother Hua and General Sima Cuo left Xianyang to guard Northern Xinjiang and Bashu respectively, Ji'er was still an eleven or twelve-year-old boy!
Yingji still remembers the picture of holding Yingji when she was a child, and Yingji called Uncle Wang one by one.
This child has been sweet to people since he was a child, and he was born to be likable, and now he hasn't seen him for many years, and he didn't expect Ji'er to have grown into such a heroic appearance.
And now Yingji has not yet sat on the throne of the King of Qin, so Yingji just stood in the palace and held his hands together: "The three generals, please get up, Yingji recalled the three generals this time, in addition to the envoys of the countries of the world on the palace of King Qin, there are also some ideas about the adjustment of my Great Qin's military strength, and the opinions of the three generals need to be sought."
"Childe, please slow down!"
"The last general and others understand that after several years of turmoil in our Great Qin, there is an urgent need for some adjustments, and the adjustment of military strength is the top priority, but this moment is by no means the most critical thing. ”
"At this moment, the most important time for my Great Qin is for my son to become the King of Qin as soon as possible, and the sooner the better, otherwise my Great Qin Iron Army will not be able to exert its full combat power due to the lack of unified and powerful mobilization. ”
"Now not only does the Qin army need the King of Qin, but the Qin people also need the King of Qin, and I also ask Gongzi to stabilize my Qin State, to ensure that the combat strength of our Qin army is not lost, and to ensure the hegemony of my Great Qin in the world, please choose a day to ascend the throne as king!"
"Please choose a day to ascend the throne as king!"
"Please choose a day to ascend the throne as king!"
After Ying Ji finished speaking, Sima Cuo and Ying Hua spoke again, and Ying Ji sighed, now it seems that even if he is not a king, he will not be able to do it.
Originally, Yingji just wanted to rely on his vision beyond the times to make some adjustments to the Great Qin army.
In particular, the army system and the general system should be close to the standardization of the modern army and the clustered army, so as to improve the combat effectiveness of the Great Qin army, and then as long as you have a hard fist, you can start an attack on the countries of the world!
But I didn't expect things to turn out like this, for the sake of the stability and strength of Great Qin, I would be forcibly promoted to the position of King of Qin by these two Uncle Wang and General Sima Cuo in a very short period of time.
"The three generals also know the importance of the lonely heart, and the envoys of all the countries in the world have also arrived in Xianyang one after another in recent days, and it seems that it is time to hold the ceremony of King Qin!"
"No!"
Yingji said to the three generals, Yingji and Sima Cuo and others bowed together, and their hearts were all happy, after four years, the turmoil that Daqin had endured for four years was finally coming to an end.
Qin, the world's largest warring state, will also usher in a new master, and when the time comes, after the Qin State has a new king, who else will dare to press forward step by step?
An edict came out of the palace of the king of Qin, and the news that the prince of Qin Yingji was about to take over the throne of the king of Qin ten days later quickly swept through Xianyang, and then it came out of Xianyang, directly to all regions of the Qin state with Xianyang as the center and spread around.
And after the people of Xianyang heard the news that the prince of Yingji was preparing to ascend the throne of Qin ten days later, every household began to prepare.
Cleaning the house, weaving new clothes, and preparing to welcome the day of the Qin King Ceremony with singing and dancing are all days of celebration for the Qin State.
"The old man thanked Gongzi, but I didn't expect that Gongzi's promise to us was really the most fulfilled, not only to bring the original murderers to justice, but also to ascend to the throne of King Qin!"
"When the time comes, my Great Qin will become the once powerful and prosperous Great Qin, and the people of Qin will also return to the carefree life they once had, and the young son of Yingji may even surpass the achievements of the previous kings in the future, I'm Daqin, I'm afraid that there will be a male lord!"
In a location not far from Xianyang, Meng Lao led thousands of Qin people to bow directly in the direction of Xianyang and said.
Not only did Meng Lao have some old tears, but many people of Qin were also grateful, grateful that what Yingji Gongzi said that day was not to comfort them, but to really do it.
With the news of Xianyang City that day, thousands of Chu soldiers were beheaded under Xianyang City, and blood flowed under Xianyang City.
The news that the remaining 90,000 Chu soldiers were also escorted to Lishan by the army led by General Bailifeng and demoted to prisoners also made countless people of Qin feel jubilant, and the revenge of their relatives was finally avenged.
