Chapter 344: Turning the Tide

Half a year has passed in a blink of an eye, and after half a year of recuperation, Yingzheng finally plans to go to Qichu.

On this day, in the Ganquan Palace, the military generals of the Qin State gathered together.

"Now that the Qin State is sitting on half of the world, now only Qi Chu is left, after half a year of recuperation, it's time to dominate the world!"

Ying Zheng sat at the head of the seat, swallowing mountains and rivers, and his momentum became stronger and stronger.

"Li Si, can you prepare enough food and grass equipment?"

Ying Zheng pondered for a moment and turned his head to look at Li Si.

"King, there is enough food and grass, enough for an army of millions for half a year."

Lees replied.

"General Wang, General Meng, do you have any views on the battle to destroy Qi and Chu?"

Ying Zheng looked at Meng Wu and Wang Jian and asked.

"Great King, the State of Qi is not to be feared, but the State of Chu is the great enemy of Qin."

Wang Jian expressed his opinion.

"General Wang is reasonable, if the king believes in the ministers, give the ministers 100,000 troops, and the ministers will destroy Qi within half a year."

Meng Wu was calculating in his heart, because compared to the Chu State, the Qi State is undoubtedly a soft bone, and the persimmon is still soft.

"Okay, then the widow will give General Meng your 100,000 troops!"

Ying Zheng said with a laugh.

"General Wang, if you want to destroy Chu, how many soldiers and horses do you need?"

Ying Zheng looked at Wang Jian again, not only did Meng Wu know that Chu was difficult to defeat, but Ying Zheng didn't know?

Therefore, Ying Zheng plans to hand over the battle to destroy Chu to Wang Qian, who is the most trusted, and it should be okay to destroy Chu with Wang Qian's ability, but the premise is to give Wang Jian enough soldiers and horses.

"It has to be 600,000 troops."

Wang Jian groaned.

"Six hundred thousand?"

Ying Zheng frowned, obviously a little dissatisfied, although the Qin State has a million troops, but Xianyang needs to be garrisoned, and the newly captured Han Wei Zhao needs to be garrisoned, plus the 100,000 and 600,000 troops given to Mengwu are indeed a bit much.

"Yes, otherwise the minister would not dare to guarantee that he could destroy Chu."

As if he didn't see Ying Zheng's expression, Wang Jian did not change his answer.

"The king, the minister only needs 200,000 troops to destroy the state of Chu and bring the king of Chu back for the king!"

At this time, Li Xin suddenly stood up and said.

"Good! and the widow will give you 200,000. ”

For Li Xin's answer, Ying Zheng seemed extremely satisfied.

Seeing this, Wang Jian silently stepped aside.

Li Ge watched everything quietly, as in history, Li Xin 200,000 would definitely lose.

But Li Ge did not intend to stop it, because this defeat would help Yingzheng take the state of Chu in the face of adversity.

In this way, he can show his talent even more.

The key is that even if Li Xin was defeated, although it had some impact on the Qin State, in fact, it did not hurt the muscles and bones, and did not cause damage to the foundation of the Qin State.

In the end, after discussion, it was decided to send troops three days later, and everyone left Ganquan Palace, but Li Ge followed behind Wang Qian.

"Sixth son, is there something wrong?"

Wang Jian looked at Li Ge suspiciously, not understanding why Li Ge followed him all the way.

"General Wang, you know that the 200,000-strong army can't take the Chu State, why don't you persuade your father?"

After everyone left, only Li Ge and Wang Jian remained, and Li Ge got straight to the point.

"Childe is smart, but since Childe sees that Li Xin will lose, why don't you persuade the king?"

Wang Jian smiled indifferently and asked Li Gedao.

"My father has long been carried away by the victory, and I am afraid that he will not listen to my advice, but fortunately, even if Li Xin is defeated, it will not damage the foundation of the Qin State......"

Li Ge shook his head lightly and said.

"This is not the place to speak, if the son doesn't dislike it, why don't you go to my house and sit down?"

Wang Jian suddenly issued an invitation, which caught Li Ge a little off guard.

"I can't ask for it."

Li Ge naturally planned to win over Wang Qian, who had two major families in the Qin State and controlled eighty percent of the soldiers and horses in the Qin State, that is, the Wang family and the Mengshi family.

Fusu has the support of Montessori, and if he wants to compete with Montessori, he naturally has to win over Wang.

But not to mention how Li Ge won over the Wang family, three days passed in a blink of an eye, and the Qin soldiers divided into two routes, and began the battle of attacking Qi and Chu empty.

Meng Wu did not disappoint, and in less than two months with an army of 100,000, he destroyed the Qi State.

But Li Xin is like in history, he first led the army to attack Pingyu, and then attacked Yan Ying, and the succession of good news made Yingzheng happy, thinking that Wang Qian's words were wrong, and Li Xin did not live up to his expectations.

However, after repeated defeats, the king of Chu finally became frightened, so he sent the general Xiang Yan to lead the army to resist.

In the end, as in history, Li Xin was defeated by Xiang Yan in the city father, and was chased and killed by Xiang Yan all the way, and the army was directly routed, and seven captains died.

"Lee Shin !!"

When the news of Li Xin's defeat at the city father came back, Yingzheng was immediately furious.

Not only can Ying Zheng not tolerate his great cause and encounter such a huge setback, but more importantly, Ying Zheng often thinks of Wang Qian's words, and now it is like a mockery of him.

Ying Zheng gritted his teeth and said Li Xin's name, eager to immediately divide his five horses into corpses, so as to wash away the shame on his body.

"The king, the sixth prince is out asking to see you."

A eunuch reported in a low voice.

"Let him in."

Ying Zheng barely suppressed his anger and said lightly to the eunuch on the side.

"I've seen the king."

When Li Ge walked in, he first gave a salute, and then knelt down to the side.

"What are you doing here?"

Ying Zheng asked.

"Just now, the news came back from the net, and General Li Xin was defeated."

Naturally, Li Ge will not come to report the news, but to ask for battle.

"Oh!"

Ying Zheng answered and waited for Li Ge to follow.

"King, the only way at the moment is to raise the army again, not to give the Chu State a chance to breathe, and to destroy the Chu State in one go.

Li Ge went straight to the road.

"How sure are you?"

If it were in the past, Ying Zheng would naturally not hand over such an important battle to Li Ge, after all, Li Ge is too young now.

But after the battle to destroy Han and Wei, no one dared to underestimate Li Ge anymore.

Yingzheng also has a choice, that is, to ask Wang Jian to go out of the mountain, and with Wang Qian's ability, he should be able to complete the task 100%.

But in that case, it is undoubtedly to admit that he was wrong at the beginning, and Yingzheng naturally couldn't pull off this face for a while, how could a king admit his mistake to his courtiers.

"Ninety percent sure!"

Lige replied.

"How many soldiers do you want?"

If Li Ge said that he was 100% sure, Ying Zheng would not believe it, and the battlefield is changing rapidly, how can there be a 100% chance of victory.

But Li Ge only said that he was 90% sure, but Yingzheng believed it.

"400,000 troops, plus the remnants of General Li Xin's army."

Xiang Ying's political request for an army of 400,000 is a vague idea, and Li Ge doesn't know much about it.

"Okay, the widow will give it to you, and within half a year, the widow will destroy the Chu State!"

Ying Zheng pondered for a moment, but still agreed.

"No."

Now that the business has been done, Li Ge did not stay in Ganquan Palace for long.

"I hope you don't disappoint the widow......"

Looking at the back of Li Ge's departure, Ying Zheng muttered to himself.
