Xianyang.

Qin Wangji's life has not been very good recently.

Following Bashu, Yiqu in Longxi and Beidi also rebelled.

Qin's means of recovering Yiqu were very disgraceful.

After the death of King Qin Huiwen, Empress Dowager Xuan and King Yiqu got together, and the two were like glue on the surface, you and I farmed, and even gave birth to two sons.

Behind the scenes, there are intrigues and treacherous clouds.

King Yiqu wanted to control Qin with the help of Empress Dowager Xuan, and Empress Dowager Xuan also wanted to annex Yiqu through King Yiqu.

As the saying goes, the first strike is stronger, and the second strike suffers.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Empress Dowager Xuan deceived King Yiqu to Ganquan Palace.

The naïve King Yiqu didn't know the plan of the Empress Dowager Xuan at all, and thought that he had already captured the heart of the beauty, and came to Ganquan Palace without any precautions.

As everyone knows, this woman is ruthless, but she is much more ruthless than a man.

When Empress Dowager Xuan saw King Yiqu, she killed him directly, and then sent troops to level Yiqu.

Although this move allowed the Qin State to quickly destroy Yiqu and expand its territory, it also laid the groundwork for the continuous rebellion of Yiqu later.

Although the king of Yiqu was killed, but the people of Yiqu were still there, and the monarch was killed in such a humiliating manner, how could they be willing to surrender to the Qin State?

In these years, as long as the Yiqu people had the opportunity, they would rebel, although it did not pose any threat to the Qin State, but it also made the Qin State tireless.

Moreover, each rebellion was at a critical moment in Qin's foreign war, so that Qin had no way to concentrate on dealing with the six Kwantung countries.

In order to completely recover Yiqu, Empress Dowager Xuan and King Qin forcibly moved some of the Yiqu people into Guanzhong, and then moved the Qin people to Longxi and Beidi, and married the women of Yiqu to the men of the Qin State, encouraging the marriage of the two clans, and finally barely suppressed the counterattack of Yiqu.

"Invincible Begins with Sacrificing to the Ancestors"

However, there were still some Yiqu people who did not succumb to the obscenity of the Qin state, but moved further north and west, seeking an opportunity to restore the country.

This year, when these Yiqu people learned that the Qin State was defeated in the Kwantung region and lost a lot of land, they were very excited and felt that the opportunity for revenge had come, so they united with the Yue Clan and Qu Yan to attack the Qin State.

The three clans gathered more than 100,000 troops, captured two county towns in less than half a month, and elected a new king of Yiqu, which has great signs of recovering the country.

To be honest, the Qin State had never taken the alien races around him into account.

Just these garbage aliens, they don't even have complete weapons, and the Qin State can hang them up and fight them with one hand.

The question is...... Now there is no food in the Qin State......

Rewarding soldiers for grain, attacking Zhao for grain, quelling the Bashu rebellion for grain, even if Qin holds the two granaries of Guanzhong and Bashu, it is not enough to squander.

"If the generals lead their troops to quell the rebellion, how many troops will they need? For how long? Qin Wangji looked at the generals of the Qin State in front of him: Wang Di, Si Li, Wang Ling, and Wang Qian.

Bai Qi attacked Zhao in Hedong, Sima Coo's seat in Bashu, and Qin only had these generals left who could take charge alone.

As for Wei Ran......

Qin Wangji didn't trust him very much, even more than Bai Qi, if he wasn't forced to do so, he would never have used him.

When Empress Dowager Xuan was in power, with Wei Ran as the prime minister, the two almost completely set up Qin Wangji.

It was not until the later years of Empress Dowager Xuan that Qin Wangji abolished it and deposed the four nobles, and completely took back the rights.

After the death of Empress Dowager Xuan, the King of Qin directly expelled Wei Ran from Xianyang and went to the fiefdom of Taoyi, where it is said that when he left, more than 1,000 vehicles were used to pull heavy money.

After that, Wei Ran stayed in Taoyi until the Qin State was attacked by the Three Jin and Chu States, and the King of Qin had no choice but to reactivate Wei Ran, and finally joined forces with Sima Cuo to defeat the Chu army.

"Your Great King, the last general only needs 20,000 troops, and he can level the canal in four months." Wang Yi said excitedly with his fists clenched.

Changping was defeated in the first battle, although Wang Ji was not executed, but the title was also swept to the end, and he became a commoner, and all his merits had to be accumulated again.

King Qin nodded and looked at Si Li.

"Your Majesty, you will need an army of 30,000 in the end, and you can level the canal in three months." Si Li said.

He is better than Wang Yi, although the title is gone, but the official position is still there. And as King Qin's "side", maybe when King Qin is in a good mood, he will be able to restore his title.

"Your Majesty, you will need an army of 30,000 in the end, and you can level the canal in two months." Wang Ling gritted his teeth and said.

Finally, King Qin looked at Wang Qian.

"Your Great King, the last general needs an army of 50,000, and the rebellion can be quelled in half a year." Wang Jian said.

"Why does General Wang Jian need so many troops and take so long?" King Qin asked puzzled.

Wang Jian is the leader of the younger generation of Qin, and his ability is obvious to all, except for some lack of experience, he is no less than a veteran in other aspects.

Qin Wangji has always been very optimistic about Wang Jian and doesn't feel that there is such a big gap between him and others.

"The last general must guarantee that he will win." Wang Jian arched his hand and said.

The implication is that although the army of others is small, it is risky.

"Okay, then the widow will give you an army of 50,000." King Qin slapped the table and said loudly.

The summer grain is about to be harvested, gritting his teeth, the army of 50,000 can still support it.

It's just that the reward for the soldiers is going to be postponed again......

"Thank you, the king, the general will definitely put down the rebellion." Wang Jian said solemnly.

"King, news came from Kanto that Tian Dan broke the 200,000 allied forces of Han and Wei under Yecheng. Lian Po also defeated the Qi army on the bank of the river, captured 200,000 Qi troops, Qi sued Zhao for peace, compensated Zhao with 4 million stones, grain and grass, ceded Jixi to Zhao, and formed an alliance with Zhao, and took Zhao as the leader of the alliance. ”

At this time, Fan Ju hurriedly came and leaned over and said.

"Zhao Guo defeated Shiguo so quickly!"

When the generals heard this, their faces changed instantly, and they put themselves in their shoes, if they were in the position of Tian Dan or Lian Po, it would definitely be impossible for them to win so cleanly.

"The defeat of the Yan State is expected, I didn't expect the Qi State, the Wei State, and the South Korea State to be defeated so quickly, has the strength of the Zhao State reached this level?"

Qin Wangji sighed, deeply feeling the pressure brought by Zhao Guo.

He originally thought that this time the Five Kingdoms attacked Zhao, not to mention destroying the Zhao State, at least it could drag the Zhao State to miss the summer cultivation and drag the Zhao State down, but he didn't expect that the Zhao State not only solved the Four Kingdoms so quickly, but also forced the Yan State and the Qi State to cede the land and sue for peace.

They even got a lot of grain and grass.

Thinking of the four million stone grains and grass that Qi State compensated to Zhao State, Qin Wangji's heart was full of jealousy, and he couldn't wait to snatch all these grains and grasses.

If you don't count the losses on the road, these grains and grasses are enough to support an army of 400,000 for half a year.

If the Qin State has these grains and grasses, it will be able to launch a big war immediately, where is it necessary to put down a rebellion in Yiqu like now, and the strength and time must be considered.

"Don't worry, the king doesn't have to worry, the Zhao State is only strong in military strength, and other economies, populations, and territories are not as good as my Qin State, as long as my Qin State recuperates for two years, I can recover my strength. When the time comes, if you unite with other countries, you will definitely be able to destroy the Zhao State. Fan Ju comforted.

In fact, everyone knows that the most important thing in troubled times is military strength.

Moreover, after this time, Zhao Kuo's foothold has been stabilized, and it is impossible for other countries to join forces with Qin to attack Zhao like this time.

What Fan Ju said was just a word of relief.

"Give the order to Wu Anjun to withdraw from the army." King Qin waved his hand helplessly, the four countries were all defeated, and there was no need for the Qin State to waste food on the front line.

"Wait." Fan Ju hurriedly stopped, "King, we may be able to take the opportunity to take Hedong." ”

ps: I wrote it wrong, it's not spring ploughing, it should be summer ploughing, spring ploughing has already passed, and it has been changed.
