Chapter 142: Li Lingwei's plan
The eldest prince Fusu was executed for not obeying the edict, and came to the outside of Xianyang City with soldiers and horses, which made Qin Hai and Zhao Gao very annoyed. At this time, they didn't actually have too many soldiers and horses in their hands, and only the Praetorian Guards guarding Xianyang could still obey their dispatch.
Mobilize troops and issue the order of the king of diligence!
Annoyed, Qin Hai asked Zhao Gao to quickly mobilize the Praetorian Guards of Xianyang City to ensure that Fusu's men and horses were not allowed to enter Xianyang City for half a step. At the same time, the Qinwang decree was issued to the counties, requiring the counties to lead the people and horses to gather in Xianyang Qinwang.
This time, Qin Hai can be regarded as letting go, and the edict promised that as long as anyone can lead the army to serve the king, they will be rewarded heavily, and they will be allowed to divide the marquis state. Qin Hai's release directly overthrew all the hard work of his son Qin Wangzheng. I think that at the beginning, in order to eliminate other vassal states and dominate the world, it took a lot of effort to finally succeed. Moreover, the reason why this matter was able to succeed in the hands of his Laozi Qin Wangzheng was also due to the efforts of the previous kings.
Now, Qin Hai is generous, a guy directly abandoned all the hard work of the previous Qin kings, if the Qin kings of the past dynasties knew about it, it is estimated that they would be so angry that they would crawl out of the grave to find this unfilial descendant to settle accounts.
As soon as King Qin's order came out, the world was in an uproar.
It would be great to be able to divide the marquis kingdom. It was originally an independent gesture, but now it is even more justifiable. As a result, the already chaotic situation in Great Qin was even more chaotic by Qin Hai's fire. However, there are a lot of so-called Qinwang soldiers and horses that began to gather towards Xianyang, no matter what, you have to show your performance to be able to get the promise made by Qin Wanghai.
When Qin Wanghai made a mess of the Great Qin world, Ma Shuo was working hard to develop his strength.
After comprehending "Bing Tao" in three days, he immediately taught his understanding to Mark first, and at the same time, he began to implement it among his subordinates.
Of course, the barbarians wouldn't let Ma Shuo develop his power so quietly. Especially when the news of the changes in Daqin's country was completely known to them, the barbarians who were already in the western Xinjiang were completely crazy. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and if you don't take advantage of this opportunity to completely take the western frontier of Great Qin into your hands, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have such an opportunity in the future.
Even, some barbarians even thought of taking advantage of the civil strife in Great Qin to further expand the results of the war and take down several counties in the western part of Great Qin and become the barbarians' sphere of influence.
At this time, the so-called agreement with the Qin people before was no longer meaningful. The important person who had been staying in King Zuoxian's tent before also quietly disappeared one day, because his existence was meaningless. The barbarians who saw the opportunity no longer paid attention to the existence of this person, and some even wanted to kill this guy directly.
At the same time, as soon as Bai Qi left, Yumen County could only rely on the border army to hold on to the existing defensive front. The internal turmoil also had a great impact on the border army, and no one thought about providing them with supplies anymore.
For a time, the three-way border army that still occupied several county towns fell into a very embarrassing situation, and they had to resolutely resist the attack of the barbarians externally, but internally, they had to find ways to obtain various materials by themselves.
Yumen County, Xilin City. Bai Qi's reinforcements to the Western Army were the first to arrive at the place where they settled, and at this time they had become the military core of the Zhenbarian Army.
At this moment, in the county guard mansion of Xilin City.
Li Lingwei, the general of the Zhenman's army, Shi Jin Changlong, the commander of Zhenmanguan, Guo Zongyu, the soldier and horse envoy of Zhenmanguan, Ma Xinrui, the Taishou of Yumen County, Luda, the general of Zhenxi, and Zheng Lun, the general of Pingxi, these people got together again. This time, they had another very important thing to discuss.
What's next?
Last time, several people reached an agreement to take the initiative to open the door to let the barbarians in, and then close the door and beat the dogs. During this time, in fact, the results achieved were not small, plus Bai Qi began to kill, almost solved more than a million barbarians.
Recently, however, things have changed. The white men and horses were gone, and there was a problem with the supply of food and grass, but the attack of the barbarians suddenly became fierce.
The situation of the barbarian army suddenly became severe.
That's not all. The most important thing is that there have been earth-shaking changes in the court, the first king has died, the new king has inexplicably ascended the throne, and the domestic situation has suddenly fallen into chaos. In this case, where does the barbarian army go?
Is it to continue to stick to the western frontier? Or follow the general trend, occupy a piece of territory, and form an independent force in the name of the barbarian army?
Human nature is always selfish! Just like the six of you here, they are actually divided into three factions. Among them, Li Lingwei, Jin Changlong and Luda are a faction, Guo Zongyu and Ma Xinrui are a faction, and Zheng Lun is a separate gang, of course, there is also a backstage behind this guy.
The total strength of the barbarian army is now almost 300,000. This number is actually a lot less than at the beginning, but compared to the beginning, the combat effectiveness of these soldiers has increased a lot. After such a tempering, the surviving soldiers have undergone radical changes.
Of the 300,000 barbarian troops, nearly 150,000 belonged to Li Lingwei's lineage, accounting for the majority. Guo Zongyu has more than 70,000 in his hands, and Zheng Lun also has more than 70,000 in his hands. Because Li Lingwei has the most people, he also has the greatest right to speak.
If it is usual, it is natural to take Li Lingwei as the master. However, in this situation, it is difficult for Li Lingwei to make a decision alone, and he must obtain the consent of the other two factions. If there is a disagreement between them, it will be troublesome.
Of course, judging from the current situation, even if Li Lingwei is the leader, this interest group will have a lot of potential risks. Because once independence is really chosen, then everyone will think about themselves at that time, and it is inevitable to secretly expand the army, and there may even be conflicts between each other for interests, and even annexation is also possible.
"Several, the current situation, I believe everyone is very clear. Now, the question before us is what to do next? Li Lingwei directly put the question out.
Although Li Lingwei said this to the other five people, he only wanted to hear the answers of two of them, one was Guo Zongyu and the other was Zheng Lun.
It's just that neither of them spoke immediately, and even, the two of them didn't even react at all. However, everyone present could see that both of them were secretly calculating.
The people present were not stupid, of course they knew the purpose of Li Lingwei calling everyone to discuss today.
Li Lingwei wants to be independent, and this is completely certain.
In fact, other people are not without this thought. However, they all know very well that under the current situation, the only person who is qualified to play the banner in Yumen County is Li Lingwei, and the others can only follow Li Lingwei for the time being.
However, everyone was thinking about how much they could get out of the cake. Or how much leverage Li Lingwei will give in exchange for their support.
