Chapter 336: The Tide of Loneliness
Zheng County, this is an ancient city.
Before King Ping of Zhou moved eastward, it was the royal capital of Zheng State, but it was abandoned as Zheng Guo moved east with the Zhou Dynasty, and it was not until the reign of King Wulie of Qin that it was revitalized and established as a county.
Zheng County is located on the fertile soil of Guanzhong, and is the most productive place in Qin's domestic history, but now the banner on the head of the city has been changed from the black dragon Daxu of Qin to the banner of Chu and Zhao.
Zheng County Yazhong
Xiang Yan looked at Pang Xuan, who had lost his heavy armor and looked tired, and couldn't help but ask: "Pang Gong, this march seems to be a little too smooth, is there any fraud in it?" ”
Listening to Xiang Yan's worries, Pang Xuan laughed and waved his hand.
"That's the essence of the plan."
"If the Qin army can organize effective resistance, the old man will have to wonder if the Qin people are on guard against the old man."
Pang Xuan once lived in seclusion in Chu with his mentor Guanzi, and was taken care of by the Xiang family, and Xiang Yan was quite talented in the way of soldiers, Pang Xuan also liked to take care of this junior very much, and immediately made people spread out the map and analyze.
"The intention of this plan is to take advantage of the Qin army to fight with the coalition forces at Hangu Pass, and our army will cross the West River from Puhanjin, and then cross the river south to take Xianyang, the capital of Qin."
"The hinterland of the Qin State is empty, and our army is naturally progressing smoothly."
Xiang Yan understood that Pang Xuan's plan was indeed unpredictable.
Who would have thought that the countries of Shandong had fought Hangu Pass for so many years, but suddenly took a detour from the West River to the hinterland of Xianyang? In other words, he will also concentrate his forces on Hangu Pass based on his previous experience, but he always has a feeling of unease.
Xiang Yan suddenly pointed to Lantian and asked, "But there are still 200,000 soldiers and horses in the Lantian camp of the Qin State who have not advanced westward, why don't you come to stop it?" ”
Pang Xuan laughed and handed a battle report to Xiang Yan,
The battle report said that the Chu army on the southern front went north to conquer the three important towns of Chuisha, Sui and Deng County, and beheaded more than 2,000 Qin soldiers!
For this reason, the king of Chu rewarded the generals of the Chu army on the southern front, and transferred another 100,000 people from the country to support the southern front.
"The Chu army is brave, the king of Chu is wise, and the Lantian battalion has moved south when we crossed the West River, and now in the hinterland of Qin, only the garrison of Xianyang remains."
But Xiang Yan, who had read the battle report, not only did not let go, but became more and more worried.
When did the group of nobles on the southern front be able to fight like this?
Pang Xuan saw that Xiang Yan was still worried, and felt that Xiang Yan was a little too cautious.
"I have interrogated the county commander and county lieutenant of Zheng County, and sent people to inquire among the people, the Qin army has done its best to make such a large army this time, and all the county soldiers from all over Guanzhong have been transferred to Hangu Pass, leaving only a few people to maintain law and order."
"Even if the Qin army really has an ambush, the Yan army will support the retreat of the army in the rear, and even if it fails, it can get out safely."
Although Pang Xuan looks a little confident and proud, he does have the capital to be proud.
Not to mention that this march is indeed victorious in every battle, he has already thought about the problems that Xiang Yan wants to get in advance, and left the Yan army to garrison the cities captured along the way to protect the rear road of the army, and he is not afraid of the Qin army setting up ambushes at all.
And at the same time, inside the city of Xianyang
Shang Jia and the common people began to panic when they learned that the allied forces of Zhao, Chu, and Yan had penetrated directly into the hinterland of Qin, and some people tried to do illegal and taboo things that they did not dare to do in the past.
In the Inner History Mansion, a group of civil and military officials chattered about how to retreat from the enemy.
It was suggested that he should ask for help from the front line at Hanguguan and hold on to Xianyang to wait for reinforcements; Some people suggested that they take the clan and a group of civil and military families to retreat to Yongcheng, where the city is high and the pond is deep; It was also suggested that the sortie should not allow the coalition forces to invade Xianyang.
Wang Jian watched everyone arguing calmly, but he never spoke, nor did he make any arrangements, just let everyone discuss, and looked at the map alone, not in a hurry at all.
Many people played the impeachment of Wang Jian for dereliction of duty, and even directly said that Wang Jian had collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, and had already been bought by various countries in Shandong, intending to let the Qin State perish.
Now it is impossible for them to submit their recitals to Yingzheng, but they still have their own channels for handing them to the palace to submit to the Empress Dowager Zhao Ji.
But all these impeachment notes were all refuted by Zhao Ji, and people were sent to reprimand all those who impeached Wang Qian.
"Tide, Wang Jian really doesn't have to keep an eye on it?"
Zhao Ji, who was wearing a vermilion phoenix robe, was half-lying on the soft couch, looking at the tide sitting at the table to reject all the impeachments of Wang Jian for her, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Although Tidal has never dealt with government affairs, it seems that it is her innate talent, and it has handled a lot of music for her to be presented to Ganquan Palace.
The replies given in each letter were very appropriate, so that Zhao Ji's reputation among the hundred officials in Xianyang became more and more virtuous.
Zhao Ji's phoenix eyes fell on the tide in a purple dress, and she was a peerless beauty with a beautiful national color, and she was good at dealing with these government affairs that even ordinary officials would have a headache for, if she wasn't Zhang Ji's wife, she would have wanted to pull the tide to her side.
The tide also noticed Zhao Ji's gaze, and after processing the last impeachment of Wang Qian, a tired smile appeared on her delicate and immaculate face.
Women in this era do not have as many entertainment activities as in later generations, and when their men are not around, they are always a little lonely.
So, it's important to find a way to deal with loneliness.
Mrs. Hu and Hu Meiren still like to go to the drama to relieve their boredom, while Flame Lingji likes to go shopping, and by the way, she delves into her own fire-resisting skills, and Tian Mi often goes into her room to study some poisons.
But ...... for yourself
She is quite interested in Gu magic, but the really advanced Gu magic is in the hands of the wizards of Baiyue, so the tide is a little idle every day.
And the affairs of the mansion can be taken care of in an orderly manner with a raise of her hand, and the tide with nothing to do feels more and more lonely, until she helped her handle government affairs for the first time at Zhao Ji's request......
Tidal beauty's eyes flickered slightly, staring at the pieces that had been processed.
I have to say that the things in everyone's bones are a little difficult to change after all.
Tide enjoys this feeling of power, prefers the thrill of wielding power in her hands, and intrigues with those civil and military ministers, playing with people's hearts, all of which make her a little intoxicated.
Later, Zhang Ji, who learned about this matter through Liwu's letter, couldn't help but be a little surprised, but he didn't prohibit the tide from helping Zhao Ji handle government affairs.
The tide's ability to handle government affairs can be judged by Zhao Ji's reputation during this time, and the tide handles government affairs for Zhao Ji is better than Zhao Ji being suddenly picked up by someone to do something foolish.
"The Queen Mother doesn't have to worry, since the husband has explained that the internal history is absolutely reliable, and asked the Queen Mother not to interfere in the military affairs of the internal history, then we can believe in the internal history."
Zhao Ji nodded slightly, didn't bother to think about it, and then closed her phoenix eyes.
Anyway, a certain dog man has always had a good eye, whether it is the talent he fancies, or the wife and concubine in the family, well...... Especially her.
Since Zhang Ji, who holds the net, fully trusts Wang Qian, and Yingzheng also said before leaving Xianyang that she can trust Wang Jian in any case, she is too lazy to intervene.
