Chapter 278: The news arrived in Xianyang and was delivered to the bamboo slips in the mountain village
Xianyang City!
In the Xianyang Palace, Ying Zheng was in the early dynasty with hundreds of civil and military officials.
"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that I, the Qin State, should agree to make peace with the Zhao State! Now although Zhao State is in natural disasters and droughts, it can be difficult for my Qin State to be destroyed, so it is better to negotiate peace and accept Zhao State's land cession. ”
In the main hall, an official was standing there to report, and he said that he hoped to negotiate peace with Zhao Guo, and agreed to Zhao Guo's request and withdrew his troops.
And there are not many officials who have such views, almost all of them are civilians.
As for the military generals, they are basically not very supportive of peace talks, after all, peace talks are beneficial to civilian officials, and peace talks are not a good thing for military generals who need military merits.
"Your Majesty, Weichen seconded the proposal! General Yang Duan and General Zhao are struggling, and now they are fighting for General Wang Jian all the way, it is difficult to make progress, and the amount of grain and grass consumed by our Qin State is huge, so it is better to agree to peace talks with Zhao State! ”
Another civil official also walked out of the ranks of the hundred officials at this time, and after coming to the middle of the main hall, he bowed to Yingzheng in the main hall.
On the main hall.
Ying Zheng listened to the words of these officials and frowned slightly.
Since the envoys of Zhao came to sue for peace, more and more officials began to agree to peace talks with Zhao during this period.
Come to think of it.
Ying Zheng looked at the officials under His Royal Highness quietly.
"But there are other officials who have different opinions?"
Ying Zheng asked.
As soon as the words fell, Ying Zheng saw that among the generals, some generals began to come out to refute.
"Tell the king, the last general thinks that there must be no peace talks with Zhao at the moment, today Zhao Guo offered Yanmen a place to seek peace, it is really forced by the Zhao state situation, if Zhao Guo recovers, he will send troops to recapture Yanmen one day, Yanmen and my Qin State are far away, grain and grass supply is difficult, this is a trick of Zhao State, and I hope that the king will not promise Zhao State!"
"Your Majesty! The last general seconded! ”
In the main hall, accompanied by military generals and officials, stood up and spoke.
Not to be outdone, the rest of the civil servants began to retort.
"Weichen disagrees with the words of the generals, now that my Qin State is in the Zhao Land, it is difficult, and it costs the people's power and the storage of the treasury, but it is difficult to break through the well! Wouldn't it be futile for such a battle to be stalemate? ”
A civil official stood up and bowed to Yingzheng in the main hall, then looked at the ranks of military generals and retorted.
When several generals heard this, they were not to be outdone.
"Even so, that can't promise peace talks! Zhao Guo today."
A military general said, but he was not finished.
At this time.
Suddenly, a guard outside the palace hurriedly took the bamboo slips and ran into the main hall.
"Newspaper!! Your Majesty, General Wang Jian has sent news! ”
The guards held bamboo slips in both hands and hurriedly knelt in the hall.
"Bring it on!"
Ying Zheng heard the news that it was Wang Jian and ordered.
Then the two eunuchs walked to the main hall and took the bamboo slips from the hands of the guards.
Inside the main hall.
The civil and military officials, who were still arguing, stopped one after another at this moment.
They also knew that since it was General Wang Jian who sent the news, it was most likely variable, so it was better to wait until they knew the situation.
"Asai!!"
Suddenly, Yingzheng in the main hall shouted loudly, startling everyone.
The civil and military officials of the entire hall all looked up, whether it was Wei Yi, Li Si, Changping Jun, or even Kui Zhuang, Hu Quan, Mao Jiao, Bai Yu and others, all of them saw that Ying Zheng, who had always been calm and calm, actually looked at the bamboo slips with excitement at this moment.
Everyone looked at each other.
And Li Si, Changping Jun and others, who know Yingzheng very well, already have a hunch more or less at this moment, it must be General Wang Jian who won in Zhaodi, otherwise the king would definitely not be so excited.
Really.
Next, Ying Zheng put the bamboo slips on the wooden table, and then looked at the main hall.
"Bai Yan has already led the army, captured Jingcheng, captured Zhao Cong, the chief general of the Zhao army, and captured tens of thousands of Zhao Bianqi!"
Ying Zheng said.
One word.
In an instant, the entire hall was noisy.
"What? General Bai Yan has already captured Jing Chen? ”
"I also captured Zhao Cong, the commander of the Zhao army! Tens of thousands of Zhao Bian riders were captured! The"
"Didn't you say that Jing Cheng was a natural hazard? Previously, General Wang Jian was unable to break through! ”
In the main hall, civil and military officials discussed with each other in private.
At this moment, the civil officials in the court were a little confused, they had always agreed to negotiate peace with Zhao during this time, and the biggest reason was that Yang Duanhe and General Yang had not made progress, and General Wang Jian was unable to take Jingcheng for a long time, which was the last natural danger from Handan City.
As a result, it is now said that Bai Yan has led the army and has taken Jingcheng!
Come to think of it.
Even among the generals, those generals glanced at each other and turned their heads to look at a man: Bai Yu!
"It's your kid again, your kid is really fierce!"
This is what a middle-aged general beside Bai Yu said to Bai Yu.
Hearing this, Bai Yu couldn't cry or laugh, and at this moment, Bai Yu looked at the eyes of many ministers in the hall and looked at him.
Of course, Bai Yu knows why!
Thinking of Bai Yan.
Bai Yu really didn't expect that kid to be a natural general, but he didn't know what method he used to do all this this time.
Thinking of the first time I saw that kid in Lantian, that kid looked thin and weak.
remembered that in Sima Xing's camp at that time, he and Bai Yan met for the first time.
Bai Yu couldn't believe that in his eyes at that time, the kid who had just joined the army would actually do one jaw-dropping thing after another in the future.
On the main hall.
Ying Zheng saw that there were no more ministers to talk about peace talks, so he withdrew his gaze.
Looking at the bamboo slip in front of him.
At this moment, the joy in Yingzheng's heart is indescribable.
Previously, Wang Jian went to Xianyang and bluntly said that Jing Cheng was difficult to win, but he was unwilling but helpless at that time, but he didn't expect that now, Bai Yan actually surprised him again.
"Bai Yan!"
Ying Zheng was not only happy in his heart, but also decided that when he saw Bai Yan, he would definitely reward him.
is so blessed, how can people not like it.
According to the time.
Now Wang Jian and Bai Yan should have led a large army to attack Handan!
As long as Wang Jian and Bai Yan can destroy Zhao, even if he puts down the political affairs in his hands, he must go to Handan.
North of the Qinling Mountains.
In a mountainous forest and a half-slope, between green mountains and green waters, an ordinary village looms and looms.
There are more than 100 households in the village, and you can vaguely see villagers working in the fields not far away.
In front of a dilapidated wooden house.
An old man in rags with white hair, lying on a wooden bench and holding a wine jug, sat drunkenly dreaming.
Suddenly, there was movement outside the courtyard, the movement was not small, and the chaotic sound woke up the old man, and when the old man opened his hazy eyes, he saw that all the villagers had gathered outside the courtyard.
And a woman entered the small garden with a few Qin soldiers dressed in Qin armor and wearing Qin swords.
When I saw a few Qin soldiers riding war horses, I recognized at a glance that this was definitely not an ordinary Qin pawn.
The old man got up slowly, staggering and bracing his body.
"Dare to ask, but General Yu?"
The Qin pawn led by him did not lead the horse, but paced forward, came to the old man and asked, his tone was very polite.
Several other Qin soldiers also stood behind one after another, bowing their hands to the old man.
"You are?"
Old Pawn Yu looked at these Qin pawns curiously with a hint of drunkenness, not understanding why these Qin pawns came to him.
At this time, Old Pawn Yu saw that the Qin pawn led by him took out a roll of bamboo slips from his arms and handed it to him.
"My lord, this is the bamboo slip that my general ordered me to send to Lord Yu!"
Qin said to Old Soldier Yu.
"Your general?"
Old Man Yu took the bamboo slip, feeling a little inexplicable.
"The general of my family is Qin Zuoshu, Bai Yan!"
A word from Qin Zu.
In an instant, the only remaining drunkenness of Old Man Yu woke up, and he hurriedly opened the bamboo slip in his hand and looked at the contents.
Looking at it, Old Man Yu's eyes were red.
This kid is still thinking about him!
