"Your Majesty, news came from the State of Qi that the State of Qin was about to attack the State of Wei, and the number of people in the State of Qi who advocated sending troops to aid Wei has doubled, and more than half of the officials in the court who have proposed to send troops to attack Qin have already been more than half."

In the palace study, Kui stood next to the map, looked at Ying Zheng, and pointed to the location of Qi on the map not far from the ground, with a solemn expression.

Worried with Kui Xiang, there are also Wang Juan, Li Si and others.

Previously, when they agreed not to attack Chu and attack Wei first, everyone was mentally prepared for the shock of the Qi government and the opposition, but when they learned the news, things were still beyond everyone's expectations.

More than half of the officials!

Those who are familiar with Kui's mind know that behind this sentence, Kui's mind is already good, and the actual situation is probably far more than this half.

"Yao Jia and Mao Jiao are already in the Qi State, using all their forces, money, and lobbying those Qi officials everywhere, and now Yao Jia's money is far more than multiple than in the past, and many Qi officials have declined the wealth given by Yao Jia when they see that the situation is wrong, and now Yao Jia and Mao Jiao are already in Linzi City, tired of coping."

When Kui said the last few words, he looked at Ying Zheng cautiously.

On the side, Wang Juan, Changping Jun and others, even the elderly Wang Jian and the young Li Xin were silent at the moment, everyone knew why Yao Jia and Mao Jiao were in Qi State, it was nothing more than Ying Zheng thinking day and night, wanting to see the rumored bull riding old man, so he even ignored the situation in Chu State, and let Yao Jia and Mao Jiao go straight to Qi State.

The people present were all important ministers of the Qin State, and they all had their own connections, rights, and influences, and they all secretly found out a little about the rumored bamboo slips.

Therefore, they can understand Yingzheng, and they also know how high the old man's talent is.

However, this does not mean that they really hope that the old man will appear in the Qin State, and one day, he will really appear in the temple of the Qin State.

For all of them, now they are already important ministers of the Qin State, and they are only under Yingzheng alone, whether it is the power in the court of the Qin State or the military power of the camp outside the court, they are already in the hands of these people, and no one wants any changes in the Qin State.

For this reason, they supported Yingzheng, supported Yingzheng to conquer other vassal states, and participated in it one after another.

Everyone hopes that just as Ying Zheng's bloodline will inherit Ying Zheng's position, when they grow old, their children and grandchildren, and even people of family power, will enter the Qin State temple one after another to take their place, and the cycle will continue until thousands of generations in the future.

Such as Meng's Mengfu, Mengwu, Mengtian, such as Li's Li Chong, Li Yao, Li Xin......

"Your Majesty, if the Qi State sends troops, General Bai Yan is afraid that there will be changes, and what Weichen is more worried about is that once the Qi State sends troops, the Chu State will definitely take the opportunity to make trouble, and when the time comes, Qi, Wei, and Chu will ally resist Qin, and Qin is afraid that for a while, it will not be able to destroy any country."

Wang Juan frowned and looked at the map for a while, then turned sideways and said to Ying Zheng.

When Chang Wenjun heard Wang Juan's words, he pondered for a while, thought about it, and raised his hand to look at Yingzheng.

"Your Majesty, the top priority at the moment is to send envoys to the Qi Kingdom as soon as possible to appease the King of Qi!"

Chang Wenjun suggested.

Hearing Chang Wenjun's words, Kui Xiang's brows furrowed slightly inadvertently, and after glancing at Chang Wenjun, he fell silent.

"Who is it appropriate for the Ministers to send an envoy to the Qi Kingdom?"

After thinking about it, Ying Zheng glanced at everyone.

"Your Majesty, Si, is willing to send an envoy to the country of Qi! Previously, Si Mengde's mentor Xunzi taught him to leave the Qi country several times, and he knew many famous people, and he sent an envoy to the Qi country, and he will definitely be able to persuade the famous people and persuade the king of Qi."

Li Si replied, bending down to Ying Zheng and saluting.

When Chang Wenjun heard Li Si's words, he looked at Li Si casually, and then raised his hand to Ying Zheng to salute.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Lord Li Si is a court lieutenant, and now there are turmoil in Yingchuan, Handan County, and Julu County from time to time, and many matters need to be decided by the court commander Li Si."

Chang Wenjun said reasonably.

Li Si saluted with both hands, and when he heard Chang Wenjun's words, he paused

His pupils shrank, his eyes widened, and his breathing became a little disordered, which all showed that Li Si was already a little flustered in his heart.

"The King's ......"

Li Si still wanted to refute, but the words were on his lips, but he couldn't say any more, Chang Wenjun's reason was really good, after the previous defeat of Han and Zhao, aside from the Yanmen County governed by Bai Yan, the regional governance of other counties and counties has always been a big problem, and there are even more cases involving Qin Law than counted, and in many cases, even the officials under the county can't make the decision, so they can only write to the Xianyang Tingwei Mansion to decide.

Inside the study.

Chang Wenjun saw that Li Si didn't say anything, and after waiting for a few breaths, he looked at Ying Zheng.

"Your Majesty, attacking Wei is a major matter of the country, and it is related to Qi, Wei, and Chu.

When Chang Wenjun said this, he took a deep breath and bowed his head and saluted.

"Your Majesty, the Qin State has left and right prime ministers, and the ministers think that this time, in order to show benevolence and faith, one of the prime ministers should be sent to the Qi State to represent my king and appease the king of Qi!"

After Chang Wenjun finished speaking, he bent down deeply again.

Chang Wenjun's words made Wang Qian, Wei Yi, Wang Juan and others all fall silent, Chang Wenjun has already said it so clearly, everyone present knows that Chang Wenjun wants to take this opportunity to let Chang Pingjun return to Xianyang again, and Chang Wenjun's reasons are difficult for anyone to refute.

"Your Majesty, Chang Wenjun is reasonable, since the old man is the prime minister of the Qin State, no matter what, he should send an envoy to the Qi State!"

Kui stood up and saluted Yingzheng.

Chang Wenjun's mind Kui Xiang understands, but Kui Xiang understands Ying Zheng's mind better, he, the left prime minister, goes to Qi State, whether it is Ying Zheng or Li Si, at least there is still time or find an excuse to let Changping Jun continue to stay in Yingchuan, but once Changping Jun goes to Qi State, as an envoy in the future, Changping Jun will definitely return to Xianyang.

Not to mention, Changping Jun is a Chu official, in the current situation, how can Changping Jun be allowed to be an envoy of Qin and send an envoy to Qi State.

If Kui didn't understand this, he, the prime minister, would have been taken down by Yingzheng a long time ago.

"Good!"

Ying Zheng nodded, and was about to speak, when suddenly outside the study, a eunuch hurriedly came to the door of the study, said a few words to Han Zheng, and then handed a roll of bamboo slips to Han Zheng, Han Zheng turned around and came to the study, and walked in front of Ying Zheng.

"Your Majesty, General Bai ordered people to send a secret letter day and night!"

Han Yu held the bamboo slip in both hands and said.

Hearing that it was the bamboo slips sent by Bai Yan, everyone in the study looked over, and everyone knew that if it was right now, Bai Yan should have been attacking the Wei State, and now that the bamboo slips were sent, and he still ordered people to attack day and night, I am afraid that something has happened.

Ying Zheng took the bamboo slip in the hand of Han Zheng, his brows furrowed slightly, today since the last dynasty, until now, Ying Zheng has not received a good news, and now this sudden secret letter makes Ying Zheng worried, and it is bad news.

After all, this time it was he who won the government, and despite the opposition of the Chinese military officials of the dynasty, he directly ordered Bai Yan to attack the state of Wei.

A deep sigh.

Ying Zheng, who was already in a somewhat gloomy mood, opened the bamboo slips and looked at them, but looking at them, Ying Zheng's expression gradually became serious, looked at the bamboo slips, and hurriedly looked at the location of the Wei Liang on the map, repeated several times, his breathing gradually became short, full of excitement, and his expression showed a smile that was rare today.

Li Si, Wei Yi and the others saw Ying Zheng's expression and glanced at each other.

Seeing this, Li Xin and Changpingjun also vaguely guessed that it must be Bai Yan who brought some good news that made Yingzheng so excited, and even a rare smile appeared on his cheeks.

"Huh?"

Ying Zheng suddenly muttered suspiciously, and when he saw the back, he suddenly laughed heartily twice, put away the bamboo slips, and the gloomy look on his face had already disappeared.

"Your Majesty, but General Bai Yan has good news in the Wei Kingdom?"

Wang Juan saw that Ying Zheng's eyes had been staring at the map, so he asked curiously.

Li Si, Wei Yi, Kui Xiang and others also looked at Yingzheng one after another, but it was right

When everyone thought that Ying Zheng would nod, under everyone's gaze, Ying Zheng shook his head.

"Bai Yan did not attack the Wei State, but has been stationed in Li City! This letter is a request for grain and millet."

Ying Zheng said with a smile.

Ying Zheng's words made Wang Jian and the others frown, and their minds were completely puzzled, since it was not good news, why did Ying Zheng laugh.

Moreover, Bai Yan garrisoned Licheng, did not attack the Wei State, but continued to ask for grain, which made everyone even more puzzled, why Yingzheng's expression at the moment, not only did not move, but on the contrary, he also showed a very relieved look.

Finally.

In the eyes of Wang Qian, Chang Wenjun, Li Xin, Li Si and others, Ying Zheng took the bamboo slip and pointed to the location of the girder of the map.

"Bai Yan plans to surround Daliang this time, besiege but not attack, dig the water of the Candle River and the chasm, and flood Daliang City!"

Ying Zheng said to everyone.

Looking at the position of the big beam in the distance, Ying Zheng's heart was full of excitement, Bai Yan really lived up to his trust as always.

"Flooded girders?"

"Bai Yan plans to flood the beam?"

Hearing Ying Zheng's words, not to mention that Li Xin and Meng Yi in the distance were shocked, even Wang Qian, Chang Wenjun, Li Si and others were not much better at the moment, no one expected that Bai Yan actually planned to attack with water, directly dig the water of the Candle River and the chasm, and collapse Daliang City.

Then Fang Yingzheng mentioned Bai Yan's request, and the grain and millet must not have been intended for the Qin army from the beginning, but for those people in the Great Liang City of Wei.

One by one, the ministers of the Qin State looked at each other, showing surprised expressions.

"White up! Yan Cheng!"

Wang Jian suddenly took a deep breath and sighed.

Li Si, Chang Wenjun and others were slightly stunned when they heard this, and then immediately remembered that it seemed that when Bai Qi attacked Chu State, he also used water to attack and directly drown Yancheng, but he didn't expect that after so many years, his descendants would actually use the same method to capture the capital of Wei State, Daliang!

Chang Wenjun looked at Wang Jian and immediately stepped forward and saluted Yingzheng.

"Your Majesty!"

Chang Wenjun said: "Throughout the past, Bai Qi flooded Yancheng, causing more than 100,000 casualties among the people and soldiers of the Chu State, and countless homeless people, so far the Chu people are unforgettable. If you can capture the girders, you can shut up the mouths of the world."

After Chang Wenjun admonished, he looked at Ying Zheng with a somewhat nervous expression.

Kui Xiang stood aside, glanced at Chang Wenjun with a flat face, and sneered in his heart, he didn't expect karma to come so quickly.

"Your Majesty, now there are more than 100,000 soldiers and armor in Daliang City, and the grain and grass stocks are even more prepared by a country, General Bai Yan can take Daliang without blood, Qin Zhi is fortunate, the soldiers are fortunate, and the people of Qin are fortunate......

Kui arched his hand and said, after speaking, he glanced sideways at Chang Wenjun, looked at Chang Wenjun, and then looked back at Ying Zheng and continued to give his hand.

"The siege of the city, tens of thousands of casualties, do not use the Wei people, cold wounds the Qin people, not to mention General Bai Yan's letter, presented to the king, asking the king to favor the people of Wei, give grain and grass without any benefits, General Bai Yan has such a heart, presumably to carry out a water attack, there must be a measure."

After Kui finished speaking, he put down his hand and no longer looked at Chang Wenjun beside him.

Chang Wenjun has prestige in the court, and his contributions are not weaker than anyone else's, so even Li Si, Wang Juan and others are generally not good at refuting Chang Wenjun directly, but Kui is the left prime minister of Qin State, and he can refute both his identity and position.

Kui Zheng remembered Fang Caichang Wenjun's actions, and couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

Chang Wenjun tried every possible means to let Changping Jun return to Xianyang, but now although he was forced to go to Qi State, with the arrival of Bai Yan's secret letter, Changping Jun, I am afraid that within a few years, he will not want to return to Xianyang.

Thinking of this, Kui Zheng couldn't help but rejoice, Bai Yan's secret letter really came in time, no wonder the king was so happy, not only proposed a way to destroy the Wei State without blood, but even inadvertently helped Ying Zheng easily stop Changping Junhui

Xianyang.

"Your Majesty!"

Chang Wenjun's face was a little embarrassed, but he still didn't panic too much, and after Kui finished speaking, he saluted Yingzheng.

However, before Chang Wenjun could speak, Ying Zheng raised his hand.

"This time, Bai Yan plans to flood Daliang, and there is another plan, taking advantage of the situation, to attack the east of Chu State, the junction of Chu and Qi."

Ying Zheng said.

Even Ying Zheng, after learning about Bai Yan's plan, was a little shocked, who would have thought that before Bai Yan led the troops, whether it was the civil and military officials in the court, or everyone in Xianyang City, they were speculating, guessing whether Bai Yan could successfully capture the Great Liang of Wei, and if so, it would take half a year, a year, or even longer.

As a result, who can know that Bai Yan, who has been speculated and questioned, has been secretly plotting, and after destroying Wei, he immediately led the iron cavalry and went straight to the junction of Qi and Chu, and formed a siege with the army led by Mengwu in Qianzhong and the army led by Wang Ben of Jiaocheng.

It seems that from the beginning, Bai Yan was not worried about whether he could destroy Wei, or rather, Bai Yan's purpose was not just to destroy Wei from the beginning.

Ying Zheng couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this, Bai Yan always seemed to be able to bring him unexpected joy, whether it was from knowing Bai Yan's name at the beginning, to commanding the iron cavalry in the back, and then to the high slave in the upper county in the back......

"What?"

"Chu State !!"

If they knew that Bai Yan planned to flood the beam at the beginning, Li Si, Kui Xiang, Wang Xuan, Wang Jian and others were secretly surprised in their hearts, then now when they heard Ying Zheng's words, they completely showed a confused expression.

Looking at the map again, according to Bai Yan's plan, everyone knew how big Bai Yan's appetite was this time!!

Where is this big, together with the destruction of Wei, Bai Yan actually plans to attack Chu directly, I am afraid that in the entire Qin State, only Bai Yan dares to have this idea.

"This ......"

Li Xin was also a little confused at the moment, Li Xin, who prided himself on being brave in the past, was also completely dumbfounded after learning about Bai Yan's purpose.

Li Xin imagined that if he was to lead the army this time, he would definitely besiege Daliang, and under the heavy reward, let the soldiers capture Daliang City, but he learned that Bai Yan attacked with water, which had caught Li Xin off guard, but Li Xin never imagined that Bai Yan actually planned to attack Chu directly after destroying Wei.

This is to prepare to destroy a vassal state immediately after attacking the next vassal state!!

"Your Majesty, General Bai Yan is planning to annex the place where the heavy troops of the Chu State are stationed this time! Qi and Chu are handed over, Chu and Qi have dozens of cities, and the big cities are heavily guarded, and the whole body will be moved, if General Bai Yan attacks Chu, I am afraid that the Qi country will also react."

Wang Jian still looked at the map with some shock in his eyes, as a general of the Qin State, Wang Jian was taken aback by Bai Yan's actions, at the junction of Qi and Chu, both countries have heavy troops, Bai Yan rashly attacked one country, and if the other country rarely moved, it would form a situation of encirclement.

It stands to reason that Bai Yan, who can think of flooded beams, will never fail to think of this danger.

"Indeed, now that the Qi country is already in turmoil, if General Bai Yan is in a hurry to attack Chu, if he is not careful, he may be cut off!"

Li Si also spoke at this time.

Now, after learning that Bai Yan planned to flood Daliang, Li Si no longer had to worry about Changping Jun's affairs, so Li Si did not agree with Bai Yan going to attack the Chu State, it was too risky.

Wang Qian, Li Si, and even Chang Wenjun all looked at Ying Zheng, hoping that Ying Zheng could make Bai Yan retract this intention, and this time he could destroy Wei wholeheartedly, without having to make more accidents, and go to attack Chu State.

However, what Kui Zheng, Chang Wenjun and others did not expect was that as Yingzheng heard the words of Wang Jian and Li Si, he didn't seem to be too worried.

"It's okay, the widow believes in Bai Yan!"

Ying Zheng looked at the map, and after thinking for a long time, he said softly.

.................

"Quick!"

"Move fast !!"

In the wilderness not far from Zhaiyang, dense men, holding wooden tools, or some bamboo weaving, are constantly digging and carrying soil, and the men are ragged, sweating, and full of holes

The clothes and the dirt were still weak and shaky from time to time.

However, whenever a man's strength rests, there will be Qin officials and pawns holding long ges and thick whips, and even pawns come over and whip the men who stopped.

Among them, there was a middle-aged man with a fat face, who was whipped several times in a row, and his clothes all over his body had traces of whipping, and the faint scars were clearly visible.

This man is Bai Yan's uncle.

However, what is surprising is that the uncle's pale face did not see the tattoo, obviously I don't know what the reason is, the uncle was not tattooed.

"Quick!"

Uncle weakly used his hands full of pain, digging the soil, whenever his head was dizzy, the panic in his heart made the uncle dare not rest for half a minute.

Not far away.

A delicate carriage passed by, and the uncle glanced at it, full of longing, fantasizing about being able to leave with the carriage, thinking about the days when he was once free.

However, the angry scolding behind him, the severe pain of being whipped, made the uncle quickly come back to his senses, lowered his head, continued to dig the soil, and did not dare to have the slightest distraction, looking at his hands full of scars, the uncle couldn't cry if he wanted to, and in his red and swollen eyes, the tears of remorse had already flowed many times.

"That carriage seems to belong to the Wei Kingdom!"

The two guards with thick whips in their hands stood next to a Qin pawn, looked at the carriage in the distance, and discussed.

"Indeed, it seems to be going to the city!"

Qin Pawn nodded, then stopped paying attention to the carriage, and turned his gaze to look at the dense prisoners in front of him, and whenever he saw that sinner moving slowly, there would be a look of anger in his eyes.

Not far away.

The small window on the carriage was gently opened, and when I looked through the window, I found that the people in the carriage were corpse weirs from the girders.

At this moment, feeling the continuous shaking of the carriage, the corpse weir watching in the carriage, looking at a large area in the distance, dense people constantly digging the soil, immediately guessed something, and his face turned white!

"It's over, Wei is over!"

The corpse weir looked at the scene outside the carriage blankly, thinking of the city of Daliang, his eyes were full of fear, and his heart was full of despair.
