No one knows what Xu Mozhi saw with the technique of face to face when he first saw Yingcheng.

But since then, Xu Mozhi has never met for anyone again.

And this, for the Qin State, is the same as a grain of the sand sea, and it does not have much impact.

Wang Ben led his cronies to Xiayang, and with his strong prestige, he took over the Linjin defense line and took over all the commanders involved in the extermination of the Xiongnu army.

Before taking over the Linjin defense line, Wang Ben and Yang Duanhe met Yang Duanhe for the last time in Xiayangpi Township, east of the Xiayang Ferry of the Yellow River.

Although it was in the name of handing over military affairs, Yang Duanhe had received an order from the imperial court a day earlier, and the reason why he was able to see Wang Ben was entirely because Yang Duanhe waited to meet Wang Ben after deliberate delay.

"Let me go to Handan to defend the thirteen counties in the east, it's your idea!" In the first sentence of the meeting, Yang Duanhe was not polite.

"Now the situation in the Qin State, General Yang also knows that it is important to defend the thirteen counties in the east, and he can't find a more suitable candidate than the general." Wang Ben said unabashedly.

"Heh, what you Wang Ben said is light, and one sentence is more appropriate, so send me to Dongshou?" Yang Duanhe snorted coldly: "There are not many veterans, this move may be chilling!"

"If the old man and the general compete for the leader of the army, what does the general think he has a chance of winning?" Wang Ben's undisguised gaze said coldly: "My father has a lot of old names in the army, even the generals were promoted by my father, even if my father has been idle at home for nearly ten years, he has many supporters."

"My Wang clan's children are all over the army, and they absolutely support the old man to become the leader of the armor."

"And I, Wang Ben, are even more powerful than you Yang Duanhe in the army, and your status Yang Duanhe is not comparable to me!"

"Without His Majesty and his father, if the old man fights, who can stop him?"

Hearing this, Yang Duanhe's eyes suddenly froze, and he said in a deep voice: "You should understand that even your father does not support you to become the leader of the military family because of the shallowness of the art of war."

"It's because your Wang clan is waiting for both sides, if you continue to hold on to the soldiers, you will swear to attract Your Majesty's suspicion and add trouble to your Wang family."

"And you, Wang Ben, are indeed unsurpassed in leading soldiers to war, but becoming the leader of the soldiers and stabilizing the soldiers, hehe, if you act like you, I am afraid that you will lead the soldiers into a place of no return."

"Call the old man in front of the old man, your Wang Ben is still too tender, even if he can't fight you, but the old man fights to the death, you Wang Ben and the Wang family can't take care of the old man to die, but you Wang Ben takes the soldiers to seek death, so don't blame the old man for the old love."

Although Yang Duanhe is old, his will is extremely firm, and he threatened: "Although the Yang family is not as good as the Wang family, and the status of the old man is not as good as your Wang Ben, but the old man and the Yang family are not your Wang family can knead at will."

Although he followed the orders of the Second Emperor to Handan, if Wang Ben relied on his identity to do whatever he wanted, then he would not hesitate to fight.

Seeing this, Wang Ben not only did not get angry, but chuckled lightly and said, "General Wang, don't worry, Wang Ben has no intention of fighting with the leaders of the soldiers."

"This time, the old man made such an arrangement, not to transfer the general away from the center, but to send the leader of the military family to the general!"

"The soldier still needs a person as safe as the general to preside, and Wang Ben is even more self-aware, and he is not suitable for the position of the leader of the soldier."

Hearing this, Yang Duanhe was obviously stunned, staring at Wang Ben in disbelief, the reason why he threatened just now was precisely because he felt Wang Ben's full hostility from Wang Ben's arrangement.

But now, Wang Ben actually said such a thing, which really surprised him.

"What do you mean?"

Yang Duanhe asked with a frown.

Wang Ben frowned, suddenly took a step back, and bowed slightly: "

"When the Wang family was in the reign of the first emperor, it was already the largest force in the army, even the first emperor could not shake the status of the Wang family, if it were not for the rapid retreat of the father, I am afraid that the Wang family would have been like the former Meng Xibai, the Lu family and other clans, and was suspected by the king."

"And now, the Wang family will become a real relative, and my father has left a legacy, first, that I should not be the leader of the military family, and second, if I reach a place where there is no seal, I must not be greedy for power, and I must return to my hometown."

"Wang Ben, although he is reluctant, he must follow his father's teachings."

"This arrangement, my father's testament is one of the reasons."

As he spoke, Wang Ben paused slightly, observed Yang Duanhe's expression for a moment, and continued, "Furthermore, Wang Ben hopes that the general will put the overall situation of the Qin State first."

"Before the death of the emperor, the world was in turmoil, Jiangdong, Longxi, Dangjun, Nanyang, Beijing, Cangwu, and all counties along the Taihang Mountains were in chaos."

"Since His Majesty returned to the capital, Gongzi Ronglu took the Cangwu camp to the east of the river, Cangwu had no soldiers to defend it, Dangjun Yingxian rebelled, and the garrison camp was still resting in Nanyang."

"And in the neighboring Sacheon County, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang and other Diao people are in rebellion, if it spreads to Dangjun, Dangjun will be chaotic, and Jiangdong has become more and more restless recently, and the southeast of Guanzhong may be plunged into war again."

"Nanling is undecided, Tu Sui's 500,000 army must defend Nanling even if it stops entering Nanling, and more importantly, it is necessary to impeach and suppress the prisoner army."

"Meng Tian, with the most elite soldiers of my Great Qin, he disappeared in Mobei for a month, if it is successful, the old man respects him Meng Tian, if it is not successful, then he Meng Tian is a sinner of my Qin State, and even death cannot atone for his sins, and this also leads to the emptiness of the north."

"Li Xin, the reckless man who is the most unbearable for the old man, has won a good reputation for himself as a loyal monarch, but in the old man's opinion, Li Xin mistook my Qin State, and it is difficult to escape the blame for his death."

"Your Majesty remembered that he loyally followed the former emperor and did not pursue his rules for leaving his post without permission, but this kind of atmosphere must not be promoted, and it is because he left his post without saying goodbye that the thirteen counties in the east have also become unstable."

"If there is chaos in the thirteen counties of Dongshou because of Li Xin, it is not too much for the old man to take him out of the tomb of the former emperor and whip his corpse."

Saying that, Wang Ben said angrily: "General, the first emperor was not thin on the generals, and the Qin State has never treated us badly.

"Although the former emperor is not here, but his will is immortal, and now His Majesty was ordered by the former emperor to be in danger and was ordered when the Qin State was overthrown, and we, as generals who were raised by the former emperor, should abide by the long-cherished wish of the former emperor, that is, we are dissatisfied with the current Majesty, and we should also seek perfection for the stability of the Qin State, and will never tolerate the small people to disturb our Qin State."

"The general is going to Handan, and the general is looking forward to the emperor, replacing the Qin State, and stabilizing the thirteen counties in the east."

Wang Ben said deafeningly, as if he was loyal to the country, and he was dedicated to the Qin State.

And Yang Duanhe, as if moved by Wang Ben's exciting words, said with empathy: "General righteousness, I, Yang Duanhe, have received the grace of the former emperor, and I should repay the country with death, and swear to live and die with the Qin State, and I will never live up to the first emperor, let alone Your Majesty."

"Guarding the thirteen counties in the east, I will never live up to Your Majesty's trust."

Yang Duan and Kang Yi are concerned, like Wang Ben, everything is for the Qin State.

But at this time, Yang Duanhe did not respond to any of Wang Ben's other attitudes except for his loyal words.

However, at this time, as Yang Duanhe understood the reason, the focus of his more concern became what kind of way Wang Ben wanted to pacify the Xiongnu.

This seems to have become Yang Duanhe's only doubt.

A long time ago, Wang Ben had suggested to him a strategy to pacify the Xiongnu, but Wang Ben's suggestion was rejected by him, and he did not follow Wang Ben's suggestion to lead the Xiongnu into the valley plain.

And now.

The Xiongnu rebellion was undecided, and Wang Ben took over his duties, and he could not influence any of Wang Ben's decisions.

That's where he's really worried.

The direct reason why Wang Ben did not even approve of his father as the leader of the military family was because he did not have any mercy in his eyes, and everything was based on the highest principle of achieving strategic goals.

As a general, or even a commander, this kind of person is able to remain calm in any situation and not be swayed by anything.

But as a human being, this kind of person is too cold-blooded.

It can be said that he watched Wang Ben grow up in the army step by step, and he was more aware of Wang Ben's style of acting.

With Wang Ben's current thoughts, he will definitely not let the Xiongnu rebellion drag

too long, and this oath will not use the policy he formulated to pacify the Huns.

That's why it's the most terrifying.

As Wang Ben said, flooding the Xiongnu is the fastest way to pacify.

"But I don't know, what method the general wants to pacify the Huns!" Yang Duanhe finally couldn't help but ask.

If possible, he wanted to stop Wang Ben as much as possible.

Wang Ben replied expressionlessly: "Quick peace, the rebellion of the Huns can't be delayed for too long."

"Late will change, no matter when, Xianyang must have enough troops to defend and deal with the chaos in all parts of the world."

"At any time, my Qin State must have a combatable army that can be mobilized at any time."

"The general should understand that the war will be spread because of the span of time, and the longer it lasts, the greater the scope of the war, and he will not stop spreading because the rebellion is suppressed in one place, but will only become larger because of time, until it is impossible to clean up."

"The Xiongnu rebellion dragged down the soldiers and horses of the six counties in Hedong, and also trapped the troops in the Linjin defense line, in the face of today's chaos, we must not only guard against the rebellion of the people, but also prevent rebellious ministers and thieves from taking advantage of the opportunity to make trouble."

Wang Ben said in a deep voice: "The general restricts the Hun cavalry in the mountains, and then cuts off its grain and grass with siege, for a long time, the Hun cavalry is unable to support, and defeats itself without attacking, this is certainly a winning strategy, but the general ignores it, how difficult it is to besiege 100,000 Huns, how difficult it is to completely exterminate 100,000 Hun cavalry, and whoever implements the siege strategy will be besieged with several times the number of soldiers."

"In the face of the Hun cavalry who survived in the place of death, the siege may not be able to trap it, and this move cannot completely guarantee the extermination of the Huns."

"And the general's strategy, whether it is to besiege for a month, or two months, or three months, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses are surrounded in Pingyang, a palm-sized place, and the rest of the Qin State doesn't care."

"Military affairs need to be done decisively, wars and disputes need to be determined quickly, and only by turning war into political affairs can we calm people's hearts."

"Even if Hedong is eroded, it is far safer than Hedong falling into a long-term war."

Saying that, Wang Ben didn't give Yang Duanhe any chance to speak, and continued: "Didn't the general think that the daily consumption of the nearly 300,000 troops besieging the Pingyang Heights is not to levy people to transport grain and grass."

"And the grain and grass that supplies 300,000 soldiers and horses needs 450,000 young men to transport the grain and grass, and these people must be requisitioned from the land east of the river."

"This is also a waste of money and labor, three months is enough for the people of Hedong to do nothing else."

"The general may wish to think about it, if the Xiongnu rebellion is undecided in March, and the Hedong County guards will treat the people of Hedong for the sake of Hedong farming."

"Actually, no matter what the strategy, Hedong is in the midst of war, and erosion is doomed."

Wang Ben also fought hard, exhausted the vocabulary and explained his views to Yang Duanhe again, in order to let Yang Duanhe agree.

In this way, he can have a lot less trouble.

Moreover, what he said is also true, war is always the beginning of disaster, and there will be erosion around a war, which no one can control.

"But the general's strategy is tantamount to slaughtering the people of my Qin State and flooding the land of my Qin State, how can the general make such a decision!"

"The siege of the Xiongnu only chaotic Pingyang, release water to flood the river valley, the east of the river will become a river, the tragic situation of flooding the beam, hasn't the general yet experienced?"

"The water of the Yellow River almost flooded the city wall of Daliang, and the city of Daliang became a kingdom of Ze, and the corpses of the people floated on the surface of the lake in an endless way, and then an epidemic broke out for thousands of miles, and nearly thirty percent of the population of Wei died in the war in World War I."

"Millions of people died in vain, and the tragic situation of this is going to be staged again in the hinterland of my Qin country, on the body of my Qin people?"

"This flooding is the heart of my Qin State to stabilize the world and make the world peaceful."

"Back then, Wu'an Jun fought in Changping, and since then, the Zhao people have regarded my Qin people as enemies, and they have been puzzled for generations."

"In the Great Liang War, the Wei people hated me and the Qin people like a clan feud, and it was difficult to eliminate them with all their efforts."

"Now, if according to the general's law, flooding the east of the river, do you want to watch the Qin people treat me Qin Guoru as such

Thieves, every day I feel that my Qin State is going to harm the people, and this drowning is the national fortune accumulated by my Qin State for hundreds of years."

"General, think deeply, don't die for the sake of the end, the Qin people are the roots of the Qin country, and treating the Qin people as grass and mustard digging their own graves is no different."

"I, the Qin people, are not afraid of hardship, even if they are like mountains and eat roots, they can support until dawn, the terrible thing is that the king forgets his people, and the officials who are Qin ministers forget that they are also the people of Qin, if the general regards the lives of the Qin people as grass mustard, the Qin people will regard the Qin country as a nest of thieves."

"The world is in turmoil, at this time, who does not rely on the Qin people rely on to calm the world?"

"What will the families of the Hedong soldiers do with this flooding, will the general let the Hedong soldiers dig the Yellow River with their own hands to flood their farmland, their wives, parents, children, brothers and sisters?"

"Watching my family being dug up by the Yellow River water, soaking in the face of right or wrong?"

Yang Duanhe hid his face and said, "The Wang family has children in Hedong, the Yang family also has clansmen in Hedong, and Xianyang Xungui does not have clansmen living in Hedong, and the clan is no exception."

"General's flooding, indeed, the Xiongnu rebellion can be pacified in half a month, but the chaos caused by it is not just the erosion of Hedong?"

"The old man doesn't know about this matter, since the old man left, he just asked anything about the Linjin defense line, but the old man only said this, and the general thought twice!"

After that, Yang Duanhe threw the reins of the war horse, jumped over, and returned to Xiayangdu with his cronies without looking back, and went to Handan.

And Wang Ben, staring at Yang Duanhe in the direction of leaving, uncertain and uncertain, didn't know what he was thinking.
