Chapter 184: Yue's Raiders

Qin Wangji was in a good mood, just now, good news came from Longxi, Wang Jian and Yiren once again defeated the Yueshi, Quyan, and Yiqu coalition forces, killed the pseudo-Yiqu king, captured countless horses and baggage, expanded the Qin border to the west for two hundred miles, and built a Jingguan to deter the Yueshi.

"Inform the whole country of the good news." Qin Wangji said happily.

Although he had long known that the Qin army would defeat the alien alliance, when the news came, he couldn't help but be excited.

"King, do you want Gongzi and General Wang Jian to come back?" Fan Ju arched his hand.

When the war reaches this level, it is generally time for the class to return to the court.

"What does the Marquis think?" Qin Wangji looked at Wei Ran on the side.

Since losing his fiefdom, although Wei Ran is still a nominal marquis, his actual status has plummeted.

He also knew that Qin Wangji was very jealous of himself in his heart and would not give himself a new fief, so he did not ask for a new fief in his book.

Just sent someone to Zhao State to ransom his family back, I don't know whether intentionally or unintentionally, although Wei Ran took his family to Qin State, he left his smartest grandson in Zhao State.

"The minister thought that the Yueshi could be included as a horse breeding land." Wei Ran said slowly.

The Qin State had several horse farms in Longxi and Shangjun, and about 10,000 good horses could be slaughtered every year.

However, after the Battle of Shangdang, the cavalry of the Qin State was almost wiped out, and the horses that were slaughtered alone were not enough.

Qin Wangji had seen the power of cavalry, and in his opinion, Qin had fewer chariots and cavalry.

So Qin Wangji appropriated some horses from the chariot and reorganized 20,000 cavalry.

However, this will not solve the fundamental problem of the lack of horses in the Qin State, but will affect the combat effectiveness of the chariots.

But it is different to occupy the Yue clan as a horse breeding land, and the strength of the Qin State will have a qualitative leap.

Moreover, the Qin State also needed some victories to maintain the military merit awarding system, and now the direction of the eastward exit has been blocked, so it can only find a way from other directions.

"I'm afraid that the grain and grass of my Qin State will not be able to support this big war." Qin Wangji shook his head.

The Yue clan is not a small tribe, with a population of hundreds of thousands, and it occupies a favorable location, it is easy for the Qin State to defeat it, but it is very difficult to occupy it.

"The construction of Dujiangyan in Shu County has been completed, and the flooded land in the past has been turned into thousands of miles of fertile land. This year's wind and rain are good, and there will certainly be a bumper harvest of grain. Moreover, our army can slowly encroach on it first and weaken the strength of the Yue Clan. If the king is assured, after the autumn harvest, he will give his ministers 100,000 soldiers and horses, and within a year, all the land of the Yue clan will be included in my Qin country. Wei Ran said with his fists clenched.

Qin Wangji was a little hesitant, until now, the soldiers' pensions and rewards have not been issued, he originally planned to fill this part of the deficit in the past two years, and then start a war.

But hearing Wei Ran say this, Qin Wangji had some intentions, if he could occupy the Yue Clan, the benefits to the Qin State would be too great. Not only can you get a large piece of horse farmland, but you can also make up for the previous shortfall.

"The marquis is old, and the widow can't bear to continue to run around, so let's stay in Xianyang to accompany the widow, and the widow will send other generals to fight the Yue's widow."

After a few breaths, Qin Wangji still couldn't resist the temptation and decided to raise troops to attack Yue's family. Of course, this coach must not be held by Wei Ran.

What he didn't know was that Wang Jian had no intention of withdrawing the army at all, and the half year he said at the beginning was not the time to defeat Yiqu.

"No." Wei Ran was not disappointed, he knew that King Qin would not let himself lead the troops until he had to do so, and he was just testing it.

As a result, it is clear that he will not be able to take power for some time to come.

"The Yan State and the Qi State have agreed to form a secret alliance with our country. Xiangguo sent more people to buy off the ministers of the two countries, and don't be afraid of wasting money. King Qin said to Fan Ju.

He thought very clearly, as long as the Qin State could destroy the other party, all the money spent would come back now.

On the contrary, if the Qin State is destroyed by other countries, it is useless to keep the money now.

"No." Fan Ju leaned over and saluted, and then pretended to ask casually, "Isn't there any news from Mr. Buwei?" ”

"Lü Buwei sent someone to deliver a message that the state of Chu had formed an alliance with the state of Zhao, and he was going to Jiangdong to find immigrants from the Yue country, intending to help the state of Yue in order to fight against the state of Chu." King Qin sighed, but he didn't blame Lu Buwei.

Among the six eastern states, the marriages between Qin and Chu are the most frequent, but in the same way, Chu is also the worst pit by Qin, and it is normal to choose to ally with Zhao now.

Moreover, there was an entourage that recorded all the conversations of Cai Ze, Lü Buwei and the King of Chu in the palace of the King of Chu at that time and sent them to his eucalyptus.

Qin Wangji understood that it was not that Lü Buwei was inferior to Cai Ze, but that the reputation of Qin was too bad, and the conflict between Qin and Chu was far greater than the conflict between Zhao and Chu.

No one could make the Chu State fall to the Qin State in that situation.

Unless the territory occupied by the Qin State is returned to most of the territory of the Chu State, but that is impossible.

When Fan Ju heard this, he was overjoyed, although King Qin did not blame Lu Buwei on the surface, but from the title, he could already hear that he was estranged a lot.

In the past, Qin Wangji always called Lu Buwei Mr. Buwei, but now he calls him by his name.

However, Fan Ju admired Lü Buwei's wisdom very much, and after the failure of his plan to form an alliance with the Chu State, he was able to quickly think of forming an alliance with the Yue State.

With the current situation of the Yue country, if someone can support them and help them build the country, they will definitely agree to any conditions.

Moreover, as long as the Yue State is established, it will inevitably be targeted by the Chu State and share the pressure of the Qin State, and Lü Buwei's position will also be stabilized.

"It's a pity, the minister thought that Mr. Buwei would definitely succeed and persuade the king of Chu to form an alliance." Fan Ju shook his head and said regretfully.

"It's the same if you can help the country." Qin Wangji waved his hand and said, "By the way, hasn't the famous doctor been invited yet?" ”

He is still waiting for a famous doctor to treat the prince.

"Your Majesty, news has just come from the Zhao State that the famous doctor refuses to come to my Qin State. Our people wanted to contact again, but were stopped by King Zhao's people. Fan Ju leaned over and said.

"Zhao Kuo!" Qin Wangji clenched his fists, and his forehead was bulging.

But he didn't have any way to deal with Zhao Kuo now, and he couldn't even threaten him, so he could only sigh deeply and say, "Send someone to find a famous doctor elsewhere." ”

"The minister heard that King Zhao ordered to convene the world's famous doctors and compile the "Medical Codex", and Handan will inevitably gather famous doctors at that time. The minister asked his subordinates to wait in Handan for a while, and there were always famous doctors who were willing to come to my Qin country. Fan Ju said.

"It's still thoughtful."

"The minister is terrified."

"Is the strong man I found before willing to assassinate Zhao Kuo?"

Qin Wangji said in a deep voice, he couldn't wait to get rid of Zhao Kuo now, no matter what method he used.

"He drove our people out. By the second time our people contacted him, they were gone. Fan Ju shook his head.

"As long as it is related to Zhao Guo, everything will not go well. Forget it, send someone to look for it, the widow doesn't believe that he is the only strong man in this huge world. Qin Wangji waved his hand and said helplessly.
