Chapter 333: All parties move
In fact.
Standing at the height of the Qin State, for the big men on the high, any earth-shaking changes were no longer enough to move them.
This is also a pattern he discovered after contacting Feng Quji, Li Si, and Meng Yi.
No matter how big things happened in the Qin State, these people were always able to ignore these things and deal with a very simple, easy matter, and then seemed to forget about this very serious matter with a lot of chaos.
He tried to learn, and it worked very well.
If you let him summarize, this is purely a procrastination, dragging the big things back a little, turning the big things into small things, and in this procrastination, he will give himself more time to think.
It's not that you don't deal with it, on the contrary, when a major event suddenly erupts, all of a person's emotions will be injected into it, and the decision made in such a situation must be impulsive and immature.
So now when he deals with most problems, he will deal with another small thing before making a decision, and this small thing must be simple and easy to solve.
This habit spread throughout the Three Princes and Nine Qings, including Wang Ben.
He understood what Wang Ben meant by saying these words inexplicably at this time.
It's just a reassuring remark.
It is an indisputable fact that Qin is mighty, and it is also a fact that he once expressed his dissatisfaction with Qin's affairs, and it is also a fact that Wang Ben, as the highest leader in Qin's affairs, is responsible for the millions of soldiers in Qin.
So.
On such occasions, it is reasonable for Wang Ben to mention this.
Wang Ben wanted to bridge the gap between him and the Qin soldiers.
"I know the art of war, and the king of the country also handed over his life's military book to me before he died. Yingcheng politely replied:
"And my Qin State has always been a military power, this is fundamental, and the soldiers who are dedicated to protecting their homes and defending the country will never be treated badly."
Nature.
This is also his reassuring words.
"Your Majesty, it's time to go."
And in the middle of the conversation, Xi Que stepped forward to report on the stage.
Yingcheng looked up and stared away.
I saw the Yongcheng Army, the garrison battalion had been pulled out first, the soldiers of the Guard's Mansion followed the Son of Heaven, and the soldiers of the Lieutenant's Mansion were broken.
There is no tiger camp in the east camp, after discussion, it was decided to let the tiger camp stay in Xianyang for a day to rest, recuperate, and then go to Liyi tomorrow, the tiger camp is cavalry, and the speed of the march is much faster to carry the baggage army.
And the army of rebellion this time will arrive in Liyi City tomorrow evening.
Liyi City has now been occupied by rebellion, Liyi guard Pang Pan wanted to defend the city gate to the death so that Meng Zhen who came to support to quell the Liyi rebellion, but before Meng Zhen arrived in Liyi, the Liyi rebels went crazy Meng, Pang Pan swore to die and died at the city gate.
Seeing that the city gate had been lost, Meng Zhen, the defender of the Lishan battalion, not only did not attack the city, but ordered the 30,000 soldiers and horses who went to support Liyi City to withdraw to the Lishan camp, completely cutting off the connection between the Lishan camp and Liyi City.
In other dynasties, such a thing would have been impeached more than snowflakes.
But in the Qin State, not only did not, but the ministers of the central government praised Meng Zhen for his decision to keep Lishan.
This is not because Meng Zhen came from the Meng family, one of the four nobles of Great Qin, there are many henchmen, and no one dares to impeach.
It's because.
Compared with the 100,000 convict craftsmen in Liyi City, the more important duty of the Lishan Battalion is to garrison the convict craftsmen who built the Mausoleum of the First Emperor.
100,000 and 400,000 will be heavier.
And because of this.
Meng Zhen's decision was very correct, and after knowing that the pacification of Liyi City could not be pacified quickly, he immediately withdrew to the Lishan camp to prevent the Lishan prisoners from rebelling together.
As for how Liyi City should be pacified, it depends on the imperial court.
"Let's go!"
Yingcheng rode on the back of a reddish-brown Qin horse from the Imperial Horse Breeding Division
, Qin Horse is the title of Longxi Horse, because Longxi provided countless war horses for the Qin State and got the name Qin Horse.
If it sounds better, it is a Liangzhou horse.
"No!" When Xique heard this, he also quickly ordered: "Order, the whole army is deployed!"
Suddenly.
The slender contingent of guards and soldiers who had been pulled began to slowly pull out from the front.
The place where Yingcheng is located is surrounded by groups, and no one is allowed to enter without permission.
And just when Yingcheng was driving to Liyi.
Wuguan.
After all, Wang Shu and Xin Sheng stared at the Dongjun soldiers outside the pass with a sigh.
"Sixth Prince, you have to think clearly, if you attack Wuguan today, then not only you, but also these soldiers who believe in you will be charged with treason and rebellion in this life."
"The sixth prince has really thought clearly, do you want to rebel?"
Wang Shu pulled his throat and persuaded Yingxian who knocked on the gate outside:
"Your Majesty has issued an order to crown you as the King of Wen, and now it is too late to hand over the military power and stop the war."
"As the commander of Great Qin, I don't want to see brothers kill each other, brothers who were both robes in the past, killed each other on the battlefield."
Wang Shu said that he was very helpless, Yingxian had been operating in Dongjun for six years, and the generals of the Dongjun soldiers were all Yingxian's cronies, and Yingxian was determined to enter the pass and go to Xianyang, and the military order he received was to remove Yingxian Dongjun as a garrison general, and never let Yingxian lead troops into Wuguan.
"What Your Majesty, the life and death of my father and emperor are uncertain, and the Qin State is in danger, you and others are the generals of my Qin State, but you listen to the words of the powerful ministers and let the women rebel against the country." However, outside the city, Yingxian angrily rebuked:
"General Wang, General Xin, you and others are all generals who are trusted by your father, and at this time, you should support orthodoxy, how can you let the female rebels control the court and let it go."
"What kind of king, Yingcheng is just a son and nephew, even if he has the status of a prisoner, where does he have the qualifications to crown the princes as kings?"
Xin Sheng frowned, and said with a serious face: "This general only asks the sixth prince, whose order are you under to transfer the soldiers and horses of the East County to cross the two counties without authorization, and Chen soldiers to outside the Wuguan?"
"Today, if you take out the order of His Majesty the First Emperor and order you to enter the pass and defend Xianyang, this general will not embarrass the sixth prince for half a point, and he will ask the sixth prince to take the soldiers and horses of Dongjun to cross the Wuguan."
"But if the sixth prince can't get it, no matter what reason you use to enter the pass, this pass, unless the sixth prince leads the troops to step on my Xin Sheng's corpse, otherwise, don't think about stepping through the martial pass."
"Of course, if the sixth prince wants to enter the customs and go to Xianyang, it is another matter."
When Wang Shu heard Xin Sheng's remarks, he couldn't help frowning, and his mind was difficult to understand.
The meaning of Xin Sheng's words could not be clearer.
Even if the Second Emperor is now enthroned by the order of His Majesty the First Emperor, for Xin Sheng, it is still the order of the First Emperor that is greater than the order of the Second Emperor.
And what really worried him was that.
What if Yingxian took out the forged edict of the First Emperor, or even really came by order.
If he had to choose between the Second Emperor and the First Emperor, he would choose the Second Emperor.
"Yingxian, my Great Qin is in such a big difficulty, but you are leading troops to attack Wuguan at this time, what is your intention?" Couldn't help it, Wang Shu patted the city wall, glared at Yingxian outside the city, and said in a shocking voice: "Moreover, the Xiongnu traveled to Taihang Mountain secretly southward and invaded Guanzhong, and you were at this time when the troops entered Huaiyang, and the troops were waiting for the opportunity."
"The emperor was assassinated in Longxi, and you, at this time, marched slowly to Wuguan."
"The first emperor returned to Xianyang, and you, this timing is too good, just outside the Chen Bingwu Pass at this time."
"You are a good loyal army to serve the country, defend Xianyang, resist the Huns, stabilize Guanzhong, the good son of the first emperor's trust, is so conspiring and calculating the first emperor, now that the Qin country is in turmoil, you Yingxian dares to swear to the ancestors and ancestors, does it have nothing to do with it?"
He was questioned one after another.
Although Yingxian under the city was angry, he still said angrily: "Wang Shu, you don't want to pour dirty water on His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness just came to defend Xianyang, but he was so changed in my Qin State, at this time, it is
When the Qin State needs His Highness......
Yingxian wanted to continue to persuade, but at this moment, a sound of breaking strings roared, and a soldier beside Yingxian exclaimed, "Your Highness, be careful, cold arrow!"
Yingxian was also not shocked, his eyes were quick, and he drew his sword with a bang, and blocked it with a sword, blocking the cold arrow that shot straight at his face.
"Wang Shu, you're ***!" Ying Xian's eyes were split, staring at Wang Shu, who suddenly attacked with a bow at the head of the city, and said angrily, "You dare to assassinate His Highness with cold arrows."
"Hahaha, he is worthy of being one of the few generals of the princes, and he has good skills." Although Wang Shu above the city laughed, his eyes were cold and angrily reprimanded: "Since you Yingxian has committed rebellion and tried to seek power and usurp the throne, will this general not be able to duel with you?"
"The whole army obeyed the order and shot the traitor Yingxian for General Ben, whether he lived or died."
Wang Shu ordered indifferently.
Moment.
Above the city, the sound of arrows rang out sparsely.
I saw that Wang Shu's cronies suddenly shot at the outside of the city.
Although the arrow feathers are sparse, they are extremely accurate, aiming at Yingxian's place and bursting out.
Xin Sheng next to him frowned and glanced at Wang Shu.
Yingxian obviously had no intention of attacking the city immediately, and wanted to cross the Wuguan Pass to Xianyang without spending a single soldier.
This is exactly what he meant, as long as there is no chaos on the Xianyang side, in fact, Yingxian can be persuaded to surrender.
But.
Now Wang Shu is rashly attacking, which is bound to anger Yingxian and force Yingxian to attack Wuguan.
Or even say.
Wang Shu never thought of taking over the soldiers and horses of Dongjun and letting Yingxian return to the capital to report on his work, just to let Yingxian plot a counterattack and attack Wuguan, so that he could be justifiably exterminated.
It was not as good as Xin Sheng thought.
Ying Xian was suddenly attacked, and seeing the surrounding soldiers fall one after another in the sparse arrow feathers, he was furious and shouted, "Wang Shu, you are looking for death."
"Attack His Highness, break through the martial pass, capture the martial pass alive, and avenge the dead brother."
Ying Xian retreated quickly.
However, in the midst of this retreat, the sound of horns sounded "woo-woo".
"Boom!"
The catapult burst out of the Dongjun Terracotta Camp and smashed on the Wuguan city wall.
A giant crash car was also pushed out of the military formation by the soldiers and horses of Dongjun, and together with a large-scale ladder to climb the clouds, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses overwhelmingly attacked Wuguan.
At the same time, countless arrows and feathers also burst out from the Dongjun soldiers and horses, and rushed towards the city in dense form.
"Ying Xian rebelled, committed rebellion, raised troops to rebel, and attacked Wuguan!"
Seeing this scene, Wang Shu looked at Xin Sheng calmly and said, "What are you waiting for, General Xin, is you waiting for Yingxian to break through the Wuguan and kill all the way to Xianyang?"
Xin Sheng's face turned cold, and he snorted coldly: "With such an act, isn't General Wang afraid of His Majesty the First Emperor's cold?"
Wang Shu did not move in the roar of the rocks, only approached Xin Sheng lightly, and said in a low voice, "The current king of the Qin State is His Majesty the Second Emperor."
As he spoke, Wang Shu waved his big hand, drew his sword, pointed his sword at the city, and shouted:
"Today, my king swears to defend Wuguan to the death, the city is here, the city is dead, and the traitor Yingxian will never be allowed to cross the Wuguan step."
"This general only issued a military order, broke the Yan camp and listened to the order, and the chaos and thieves were eliminated, and those who surrendered were not killed."
Let's talk about it.
Wang Shu stood at the top of the city tower and resolutely became independent.
Smell it.
The captains and generals of the Poyan Battalion on the city tower looked at Xin Sheng nervously.
Xin Sheng seemed to be making an extremely difficult choice at this time, staring at Wang Shu with locked eyes, and for a long time, Xin Sheng said in a deep voice: "Po Yan Camp listens to the order, releases arrows, kills the traitor Yingxian, and defends the city."
Moment.
With Xin Sheng's order, above the city, dense arrow feathers burst up, shooting towards the overwhelming soldiers and horses of the Dongjun attacking under the city.
The war, since then.
"Whew!" Seeing this, Wang Shuchang was relieved
Tone.
Since then, Po Yan Ying, only the second emperor ordered to follow, even if the first emperor came to life, he would choose the second emperor.
He knows it well.
The prestige of the First Emperor in the army is unparalleled, and it is not as easy as imagined for the Second Emperor to master the soldiers and horses of the Qin State after succeeding to the throne.
And now.
Ordering the Poyan camp to listen to the order and exterminate Yingxian is an opportunity.
He didn't care what Yingxian wanted to do, but Yingxian had nearly 60,000 soldiers and horses to go to Xianyang, which was a huge threat to the throne of the second emperor from beginning to end.
Only by killing Yingxian and his cronies and gathering the soldiers and horses of Dongjun can Yingxian's trouble be solved.
The war in Wuguan has begun!
And at this time.
Linjin Road, Xia Yang.
Yang Duanhe was silent and stared at the fertile field of Hedong in front of him.
The Yellow River went from the northwest of Longxi, moistened the Hetao, was blocked by Luliang Mountain, followed the topography of Luliang Mountain all the way south, and finally was blocked by Qinling in Zhongtiao Mountain, and traveled eastward along the terrain, moistening Jibei.
And this.
Linjin Road is a gallop road formed according to Luliang Mountain, and it is also a line of defense.
The west of the Yellow River is called Hexi, the east of the Yellow River is called Hedong, the Yellow River in Luliang Mountain is the Grand Canyon, both sides are precipices, like a knife and an axe, until the end of the summer, although the mountain is gentle, but because of the topography, the water flow is turbulent and washes the river, and because of the topography, the terrain on the east side is high, the terrain on the west side is low, and the floods of the Yellow River are mostly from the west side.
However, it is not impossible to let the water of the Yellow River pour into the east of the river.
In the south of Fenshui in the east of the river and the north of Qishui, a place like the Guanzhong Plain has been formed, and the terrain here is obviously low.
And if.
In Puyang County, Hedong, dig up the big stone mountain on the east side of the Yellow River and the Puyang Valley, then the Yellow River will be diverted and then offset to the east, along the Puyang Valley all the way into the valley plain where Beiqucheng is located, and finally merge into the Qishui after raging on it, and there is Zhongtiao Mountain below, and then follow the Qishui Road after blocking, and return to the Yellow River in Puban County, after that, the flow direction of the Yellow River will not be changed.
And now.
The Xiongnu soldiers and horses entered Hedong County after breaking through the Lingshi of Taiyuan County, and were galloping along the valley plain on the east side of Fenshui.
If.
If.
Stop the Xiongnu soldiers and horses to cross the Fenshui in Pingyang City, stop the Xiongnu soldiers and horses to go to Taihang in Zuoyi City, and then use the strategy of luring the enemy to go deeper, and use the prisoner army as bait.
It will allow the Xiongnu soldiers and horses to smoothly enter the valley plain.
