Chapter 386: Qin Wangzheng's suspicions

"The widow remembers, there are a total of eleven counties and seventeen yi in Nanyang County?" In the Xianyang Palace, Qin Wangzheng put down the letter in his hand, and looked at Yang Ming with his eyes under the crown.

"It seems so, the minister doesn't know." Yang Ming replied.

"Captain Protector is derelict in his duty, these things you should know." Qin Wangzheng made a rare joke to Yang Ming.

"It's the minister, it's not." Yang Ming honestly admits his mistake, but will he change it? That's another story.

"Half of South Korea's population is now in Nanyang, it can be said that it is because of the existence of Nanyang that South Korea will not become the former country, and now there is such a man-made natural disaster in Nanyang County, what do the captains of the guards think we should do in Qin?" Qin Wangzheng asked.

South Korea is too small, and if you want to solve the disaster of Nanyang County, it is impossible according to South Korea's national strength, and in this case, if Qin can do something, it may not be impossible to include Nanyang County in Qin's map.

It's just that Nanyang County in South Korea has 11 counties and 17 yi, in this era, only a city with more than 10,000 hukou can be called a county, otherwise it can only be called a city, Nanyang County, which has 11 counties and 17 yi, has a household registration even if there are no 200,000 households, and the population is enough to have a million people, and it is precisely because of this that the two generations of Xueyi Marquis who guarded the Xueyi Fort in Nanyang County dared to claim to have 100,000 soldiers.

If Qin took advantage of this disaster to attack South Korea, it would be easy to capture Nanyang County, but after the capture, after Qin replaced South Korea's rule over Nanyang County, it also had to fulfill the responsibility of the Korean court to Nanyang County.

What's more, for the disaster in the eleventh year of Qin Wangzheng, Qin has a better choice, Qin can completely turn a blind eye, Nanyang County will only be weaker after a catastrophe, and it will be easier for Qin to take Nanyang County next year or even the year after next, as for the price? It may be that hundreds of thousands of victims will die in Nanyang County, but those are all Koreans, so is that important to the people of Qin?

For a while, in Qin Wangzheng's heart, he couldn't help but hesitate.

"The Qin State can take this opportunity to send troops to take Nanyang County, and even without too many soldiers and horses, it only takes twenty or thirty thousand people to take Nanyang County." Faced with Qin Wangzheng's question, Yang Ming didn't think much about it, and replied directly.

If Qin can take Nanyang County, it will be a good thing for both Qin and the people of Nanyang County, South Korea is powerless to relieve the disaster, but Qin has enough strength, rather than letting Nanyang County rot in the hands of Korea, it is better to let it fall under the rule of Qin.

As for the resources to be consumed, aren't those things supposed to be used on the people?

Hearing Yang Ming's unthinking answer, Qin Wangzheng fell into a certain hesitation, Yang Ming's answer was so crisp that he had to wonder about the motive behind Yang Ming.

Now Wang Jian led Yang Duanhe, Li Xin, and Meng Tian generals to be responsible for the war against the southern border of Zhao State, if the war against South Korea was launched at this time, then the most suitable person would of course be Yang Ming, Yang Ming was so 'urgent' to send troops to South Korea, is it for military merit?

Now Yang Ming is already the captain of the Qin State's protectors, and the title is already very high, if there is another military merit of winning Nanyang County in South Korea, a general, even if Qin Wangzheng wants to leave it to Wang Qian, but he has to consider the issue of rewards and punishments.

In that case, of course, Qin Wangzheng had a reason not to hand over the position of general to Yang Ming, but as a king, if the meritorious ones were not rewarded, and if they could not treat the soldiers of the Qin State fairly and fairly, how could the Qin army be allowed to fight bravely on the battlefield?

What exactly is your purpose? Is it purely for military merit, or is it for the people of Nanyang County? Qin Wangzheng couldn't help but think of Yang Ming's past experience, after all the wars, there were many people who died at the hands of Yang Ming.

Thinking of this, Qin Wangzheng is more willing to believe that Yang Ming is for military merits, as the so-called Ci is not in charge of the army, and he can kill the enemy country.

Qin Wangzheng, who was already inclined to let Nanyang County fend for itself, and would take action against Nanyang County next year or even the year after that, thought of this, and was more inclined to stand still and sit back and watch Nanyang County fend for itself.

"Now is not the time, South Korea is too weak, the widow is a little worried that the Captain of the Protector Army will destroy it if you are not careful, and now to capture Nanyang, let the Qin State take over the mess of Nanyang at this time, it is really not a good thing, the price to be paid in the follow-up is too great, it is not worth it." King Qin's political road.

Yang Ming was slightly stunned, then reacted and understood the meaning behind Qin Wangzheng's words, but this matter is not so simple, Nanyang County is hundreds of thousands of lives, if Qin State takes over, hundreds of thousands of lives will definitely be saved, Yang Ming has no reason not to do it, this is not to say how noble Yang Ming is, but he can do it.

People, not leeks, can be cut in waves, they are living people, everyone has their own memories and feelings.

"King, maybe you don't need to send troops to take Nanyang this time." Yang Ming, who didn't know that Qin Wangzheng had other thoughts, opened his mouth to advise.

"Let's leave this matter at this for the time being, Qin's goal next year is mainly to uproot Zhao's rule on the south bank of Zhangshui, and the Korean affairs will be in two years." Qin Wangzheng didn't give Yang Ming a chance.

"Yes." Seeing that Qin Wangzheng already had an idea, what could Yang Ming say, for the sake of those people in Nanyang that he had never seen before, he could do it to this extent, as for the rest, it was beyond his ability.

It's just, what is your world? Is it the country of the Six Nations, or something else? Yang Ming glanced at Qin Wangzheng, and such a question appeared in his heart.

When Yang Ming walked out of Xianyang Palace, a figure staggered past him, it was Han Fei who came in a hurry all the way, this ninth prince of South Korea, although he was in the Qin State, his connections in South Korea could still allow him to get the news from the mother country in the shortest possible time, and the disaster that occurred in Nanyang County also appeared in Han Fei's hands at about the same time.

Like Yang Ming, for the disaster encountered by Nanyang, both of them thought of Qin Wangzheng at the same time, but the way they sought was different, Yang Ming wanted to occupy Nanyang, while Han Fei hoped that Qin State could support South Korea with some grain, even if it was to sell.

When Han Fei explained his intentions, even if Qin Wangzheng attached great importance to Han Fei, and even regarded him as half of his teacher, he still directly rejected Han Fei's request, if Yang Ming had not come in advance, Qin Wangzheng might have sold some grain to South Korea when he saw Han Fei's face, but now Qin Wangzheng is thinking about letting this disaster in Nanyang ferment, and finally making it easier for Qin to take Nanyang.

Although Qin Wangzheng did not agree to Yang Ming's suggestion to send troops, Qin Wangzheng was very interested in swallowing the matter of Nanyang.

"Please also ask the king to help, after all, it is about the lives of hundreds of thousands of people, if you can save these lives, you can also ......" Han Fei said with an eager expression.

Now that he is far away in Xianyang, he can't go back and do anything, and all he can do is to use the power of Qin to help South Korea, but how can things be so simple?

"Sir, the widow is the king of Qin, and the grain of Qin is also planted by the Qin people, even if the widow wants to use it, you must be cautious, the people of Nanyang are Koreans after all, and it is not the turn of the widow to be that good person." Qin Wangzheng directly interrupted Han Fei's words.

Although he values Han Fei, he has not yet valued the place where he wants to exchange Nanyang for Han Fei, and besides, even if he agrees to Han Fei's request, Han Fei may not really be able to return to the Qin State.

Since Han Fei entered Qin, Qin Wangzheng has been rude to Han Fei, but Han Fei has never let go, even now, he is still just a Korean son, not a Qin minister.

"Great King, South Korea is willing to buy grain from Qin, even if it is at a high price." Han Fei added.

"The Qin State and the widows are not short of money." King Qin's political road.

It seems that he also feels that his refusal is too ruthless, Qin Wangzheng added: "South Korea can buy grain from Wei, Qi, and even Chu. ”

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

Han Fei wanted to say something under the intersection, but Qin Wangzheng didn't give Han Fei a chance at all: "When Mr. Fang entered Xianyang Palace, he should have seen the captain of the protectors, and the captain of the guards advised the widow to take this opportunity to send troops to South Korea and capture Nanyang in one fell swoop. ”

Hearing Qin Wangzheng's words, Han Fei's heart trembled suddenly, if the Qin State sent troops to Nanyang at this time, what would Korea do to resist, and even without the Qin army attacking, the people of Nanyang would surrender themselves.

Han Fei had nothing to say in an instant, what came out of Qin Wangzheng's mouth, whether it was true or not, was true, just as Qin Wangzheng said, he had already given Han Fei face if he didn't send troops directly, could South Korea still expect Qin to help South Korea?

If he does that, Qin Guo is not a matter of being generous or ungenerous, Han Fei knows very well that if he changes his position, he will also be the same choice as Qin Wangzheng, because Qin Wangzheng and him are real confidants to a certain extent, if it weren't for this, Qin Wangzheng would not almost regard him as his husband.

Another person with such treatment is Gai Nie.

In the face of human lives and South Korea, how Han Fei should choose, this is a question he has never thought about, but he needs to think about soon.
