Li Xin said with a smile: "The king doesn't need to worry too much, the letter just said, but I don't know much about Xiang Yu. Retreating from Chu Xiang is not a dead end, at least the current situation in Great Qin is not the same as before, this is our advantage. ”

Ying Jingyu spoke: "Yu and the general see the same, the form of the battlefield is changing rapidly. If you play a famous player against a famous player, it will be difficult for either side to completely eat the other. And victory or defeat is a matter of subtlety..."

Li Xin's eyes lit up after hearing this: "What Yu Gongzi said is very true, I didn't expect that Gongzi also had such a talent in military attainments, and Xin was eye-opening." ”

"Xin Zheng has never underestimated Xiang Yu, so he doesn't dare to say that he can retreat to the Six Kingdoms of Kwantung. But with the situation of Qin today, there is a lot more confidence than in the past, and he can hold the Hangu pass. ”

Jing Yu said: "Since General Li said that Liu Bang would go to Wuguan and enter Qin, why wouldn't Xiang Yu go to Wuguan with him?" You must know that the Wuguan is more difficult to defend than Zhihan Valley, and it will be easier for Xiang Yu to break through the Wuguan. ”

Li Xin shook his head lightly: "Xin can't be sure which level Chu Xiang will take, but with Xiang Yu's previous combat methods and means, the probability of attacking Hangu Pass is greater." led hundreds of thousands of troops from the six countries, taking advantage of the victory of destroying Qin, and Hangu Pass has been difficult to break since ancient times, presumably Xiang Yu will be conceited to break Hangu in order to leave a strong mark on its achievements. ”

"The speculation is unfounded. Please let the king decide! ”

Ying Ziying was puzzled: "General Li has been discussing Chu Xiang, but Liu Bang has led a large army to attack our Guanzhong, does General Li have a good strategy, and retreat Liu Bang is sure of victory?" ”

Li shook his beard and smiled: "Hehe, king." Xin Gang has already said that Liu Bang is mostly trying to make tricks, and it is definitely not his personal ability that he can get to where he is today."

"Moreover, Liu Bang's army is far inferior in number to Xiang Yu, and it is not as good at fighting tough battles as Chu Xiang's army. If the temples in Guanzhong are still chaotic as before, then Liu Bang has a chance to break through and attack Xianyang. ”

"But at this time, Liu Bang's army will have no advantage over our Qin army, if my Guanzhong is vigorously rectified in a month, not only will the strength increase, but also the combat power will be different. Waiting for work, I, Qin, will not retreat from Liu Bang, but will consider how to eat Liu Bang. In case Liu Bang waited for Xiang's army outside the pass, the two armies combined to greatly increase the pressure on the defense of the two passes....."

After hearing this, King Qin suddenly said: "I see, the widow knows little about military affairs, and when he listens to the general's words, he suddenly opens up." From this point of view, my Great Qin is currently the most lacking of good generals..."

Li Xin's body trembled, and he arched his hand and said: "King, the matter of a good general, as far as I can see, Yu Gongzi is the most suitable." If there is Yu Gongzi to lead the army, there is a great hope to hold Guanzhong and retreat the troops of the Six Kingdoms. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone including King Qin was shocked

Ying Jingyu laughed and said, "How can Yu Hede lead the Qin army?" Although Yu has been involved in military affairs, there has never been a large army of tens of thousands to more than 100,000 to lead troops to fight. ”

"And those who have this experience and achievements in the entire pass, only the general is the ear. My father and I personally visited the palace precisely to invite the general to go out of the mountain to lead the Qin army and retreat Liu Xiang. ”

Li Xin said with a shocked face: "The king and the prince can take a fancy to the letter, and it is a great honor to believe it." But Shinnai... Xin has not led the army for a long time, and he is unfamiliar with the battle array, and he is afraid that it will be difficult to take on this role again. ”

"However, the letter can recommend my son Li Nian to join the Qin army to serve the imperial court, so that Li Nian can start as a commander or even a commander in the army, and he can hold this position with his ability."

At this time, Feng Tuo, who rarely spoke on the side, said with a dissatisfied face: "Li Xin Lao'er, today the king and the prince are visiting in person and invite you to take up important positions. Why do you deliberately excuse yourself if you don't thank you for receiving the decree? Why don't you thank the king for his command? ”

After saying that, Feng Tuo squeezed his eyes at Li Xin, fearing that he would anger the two kings of Qin by refusing the king's order

“......”

King Qin took a step forward and said with a smile: "General Li is still thinking about the past." The widow looks at Li Nian as heroic, and he follows a famous general, is a Wu Shi chief overkill? The lone king can order him to start as a thousand-commander, and if he has military exploits, he can lead the army faster. ”

Li Xin hurriedly knelt down and said: "The king must not, the habits of children are the best to be fathers." Although he has some military talents, he is the same as when he was young. Xin became famous at a young age, and was reused by the first emperor, giving birth to an arrogant heart. I beg the king to let my son start as a military commander and be promoted according to merit, so as to prevent me from following my old path..."

King Qin shook his head helplessly: "Allow!" Widow order, Li Nian will follow Gongziyu from today onwards. The commander of the general, if there is a meritorious knight, the lone king will personally order him to be promoted to the general! ”

Li Nian knelt on his knees excitedly: "Li Nian takes the order!" Thank you, King! ”

King Qin continued: "General Li, you are a person who understands. No matter how much the widow says, it seems boring. Lone asked the general to go out of the mountain again to lead the Qin army, are you willing? ”

Ying Ziying was also afraid that Li Xin would refuse again, because the most needed thing to lead the troops to fight was the courage and confidence of the commander, if Li Xin even had his past self-confidence wiped out, then even if Li Xin's military talent was excellent, he could only give up his appointment

Confidence is more important than gold......

Li Xin didn't answer for a while, but the two who couldn't sit still the most were Feng Tuo and Li Nian

"Father, don't hesitate any longer, I know how much you want to go to the battlefield again, today the king is coming in person, what concerns does my father have?"

Feng Tuo also said urgently: "Li Xin! If you are still left to fend for yourself in the mansion this time, then I, Feng, will break off friendship with you! Spread it out in the future, and the world will know that you Li Xin is a coward!! ”

Li Xin's face froze, he sighed and knelt down again: "The king values Li Xin, and he doesn't dare to disobey the king's order." Daqin is in danger, and the letter is like a fire every day. If the king can believe in Li Xin again, he will defend Guanzhong, if there is a mistake, he will not be as alive as last time, and he is willing to die on the battlefield to apologize! ”

King Qin's face was overjoyed when he heard this, and he stepped forward to help Li Xin and said: "The general's words are serious, and the widow also knows that General Li Xin has been lying in the mansion for many years and studying the art of war and warfare, and he has long been the same as the previous Li Xin......

"Li Xin obeys the order!"

"Li Shin is here!"

"King Lone ordered you to serve as the Great Qin Captain and lead the national army! Before retreating to the Six Kingdoms of Kwantung, Li Xin was specially given the right to mobilize all the Qin troops except for Xianyang Palace to change defenses, and the right to appoint and dismiss generals! The Qin army could be mobilized or trained outside of Xianyang City at will without the king's orders! ”

Li Xin was shocked when he heard this! This... Is this Ying Ziying going to hand over the entire Great Qin into his own hands?

The position of Tai Lieutenant is listed as three dukes, leading the country's soldiers and horses! But the previous lieutenant only had a military lord, and he had no royal order on weekdays, and he had no right to mobilize a single soldier.

What's more, arbitrarily dispatching troops without the king's order? This is a crime of treason...

Li Xin knelt down in great trepidation and said, "The king must not!" The post of Tai Lieutenant is related to the foundation of the country, and I believe that he has not led the army for more than ten years, and he cannot bear this important position. ”

King Qin frowned: "General Li still wants to resign?" ”

Li Xin raised his head and looked at King Qin, and said in a cold sweat: "Xin Wan will not dare to disobey the king's order, but the position of Tai Lieutenant is not worthy of it, and he can let others hold it." The letter can serve under the Taiwei, so the letter can also cooperate with the Taiwei and the king, so that the soldiers and generals can be convinced. ”

King Qin nodded, it seemed that there was some truth in what he said, but he was still a little anxious.

Now Li Xinjiu's absence from taking charge of the army is one of them, and the general of the defeated army is the second. If you blindly put Li Xin directly in the highest position, I am afraid that it will attract criticism or trouble...

"Okay, since that's the case, the widow will not be appointed as a lieutenant for the time being, and the lone king ordered Li Xin to serve as a general and lead the Qin army to fight for the country, and General Li should not resign the widow again."

Li Xin was stunned, there is no captain here, what is the difference between the general and the captain, this is a bright and dark rise.

But Li Xin is not as competitive as he was when he was young.

If you are alone in the forest, I am afraid that it will attract a lot of speculation and slander, and then King Qin will not be able to avoid many suspicions... At least having someone above to supervise yourself is a good idea

Li Xin arched his hand and said: "Believe in the king's order!" But the position of Tai Lieutenant does not need to be vacant, there is already a more suitable candidate in the heart of the minister! ”

"Oh? What General Lee said, could it be..."

"Yes, the king, this person is Gongziyu! If the minister serves as a general to lead the army, then the post of Tai Lieutenant must be Gongzi Yu, Gongzi Yu Ding Xianyang, who has a very high prestige in the Qin army. The minister also admires the son, if he can be a lieutenant and the minister is a general, then the ten thousand troops are convinced, and the temple is not to blame. When the best policy..."

Ying Jingyu was stunned, he couldn't imagine that he was not familiar with each other when he met this Li Xin for the first time, and he would think so highly of himself, afraid that he would not be able to figure out the affairs of the imperial court on weekdays

After hearing this, King Qin said very decisively: "Ying Jingyu obeys orders!" ”

"Erchen is here!"

"Ying Jingyu, the eldest son of the Great Qin, has served as the captain of the Great Qin since today, commanding the Qin army across the country, and he can arbitrarily transfer and train the national army without the king's order! Can you serve as a no? ”

Ying Jingyu knelt down on one knee: "Oh, father!" Erchen will definitely be able to lead the Qin army and hold Guanzhong! ”
