Chapter 350 Qin Wangzheng's Curiosity
The destruction of the Tenglong Legion made Xiang Yan completely give up his plan to compete with the Qin army, at least he had to do so now that he only had soldiers from Shouchun and the Xiang clan in his hands.
Although the Chu army was weak in attack, it was still able to defend with ease. The Chu army set up camps along the river between Pengcheng and Xiapi. On the opposite side of them, they did not want to force Chu to unite internally, so The Qin army, who had little willingness to attack, showed a strange tranquility on the battlefield that stretched for hundreds of miles.
All Quiet on the Eastern Front!
But on the western front, where the Chu army and the Wei army were fighting, it was a different situation. The Chu army dared not and was unwilling to fight the Qin army, but dared to fight the Wei army, even if Xiang Yan transferred the main force of the Chu army , but the local Chu army in Suiyang is still a difficult bone for the Wei army.
Over the years, although the Chu army's ability to attack externally is not satisfactory because the interests of all parties within it cannot be effectively coordinated, but when they encounter external attacks, the pressure from the outside will make them explode beyond their own strength. The reason why they did not want to force the Chu army too much after occupying several cities on the west bank of Surabaya.
But the Wei army had no choice. They came here for Suiyang. With the main force of the Chu army held back by the Qin army, they had no reason to give up Suiyang. It's on their lips. If this is the case, they still can't eat Suiyang, and they will inevitably become the laughing stock of the world. Although the Wei army has lost many foreign wars over the years, most of those defeats were due to fighting against the Qin army. The reason is that in wars against other countries, Wei Jun's record is still quite impressive.
After all, Wei Jun is not Yan Jun, and he can lose again and again. Wei Jun also has his own self-esteem.
Under such circumstances, one side must be the Wei army who must take Suiyang, and the other side is the Chu army who vowed to defend their property and home country to the death. Around Suiyang City, the fierce battle is going on in an almost tragic way.
Fortunately, the Qin army held back too many Chu troops, and on the other side of Shouchun, they deliberately abandoned Suiyang to end the war that took place in the tenth year of Qin Wangzheng. When the time entered mid-September, the Wei army finally Attacked Suiyang City, but just when the Wei army entered Suiyang City with high ambitions, the prematurely happy general of the Wei State suddenly encountered bad luck, and even blocked his throat with a sword from an assassin who was among the surrendering Chu nobles. , died unexpectedly.
A few years ago, when the Five Kingdoms jointly attacked Qin, Zhu Hai, the general of the Wei State at that time, was killed by Yang Ming at the foot of Mincheng City, and then in the battle of Pushui, although he was not named as a general at that time, he was already in charge Wei Yong, the military commander of the Wei State, and the former general of the Wei State who was killed by Yang Ming in the First Battle of Dongjun last year, in less than five years, four military commanders of the Wei State have suffered bad luck. One died and one was exiled.
After careful calculation, only Wei Yong survived alone. I don't know if it was because Wei Yong was in charge of the military at that time, but he did not serve as a general.
Wei Yong looked at the chaotic crowd, and there was a look of sorrow on his face: the position of general is really not for everyone, counting from Lord Xinling, it seems that few people can die well.
Now that the Wei army has captured Suiyang, the Qin army on the eastern front also needs to consider the matter of retreating. Pengcheng cannot be captured, and there is no need to delay it any longer. However, before retreating, there is still a problem to be solved: the Tenglong Army. Nearly ten thousand prisoners.
For captives, Qin Jun has sufficient experience. After all, there are too many seniors in Qin Jun telling the current Qin Jun how to treat captives.
Killing is the simplest word. You only need the weapons in your hands to completely solve the person who caused the problem, and the problem will naturally be solved. However, Yang Ming has no intention of killing the nearly [-] prisoners of the Tenglong Army. Kill it to solve it.
The state of Chu has lost too much in this war. If King Chu's Tenglong Legion is finally wiped out, a certain balance within the state of Chu will be broken, and the only state of Chu in the whole country is obviously If it is not in the interests of Qin, what Yang Ming has to do is to maintain the balance of struggles within Chu. Only in this way can the interests of Qin be maximized.
However, if the captives of the Tenglong Legion are released directly, it is obviously unreasonable. This is not something that Yang Ming can decide on his own. The captives were not only captured by Yang Ming, but also by his soldiers. It was a piece of military merit. Even if Yang Ming was their chief general, if Yang Ming wanted to damage their military merit, they would treat Yang Ming as a prisoner. be your own enemy.
Under such circumstances, it is not a solution to ask the state of Chu to pay for the redemption of the captives of the Tenglong Army who fell into the hands of the Qin army.
Xiang Yan, who was guarding Xiapi, got a letter from Yang Ming, the commander of the Qin Army, and was in shock for a while. He didn't know what Yang Ming wanted to do, but if the Qin Army could release the captured soldiers of the Tenglong Army, It is undoubtedly a good thing for Chu State.
The elite, especially the elite of all battles, is not so easy to cultivate. It is not enough to conscript farmers one by one into the army. It is a country that mobilizes countless resources. The weapon of the country that came out.
Although the Tenglong Legion suffered a disastrous defeat at the hands of the Dragon Riders, that did not negate the strength of the Tenglong Legion, especially the Tenglong Legion was one of the legions directly controlled by the King of Chu, and it was a heavy weapon used by the King of Chu to suppress the nobles in the Kingdom of Chu. If there is a chance to protect the Tenglong Army, from the Queen Mother Li Yanyan to Ling Yin Liyuan, they will definitely save the Tenglong Army at all costs.
But such a matter can only be decided by Queen Mother Li. Even Ling Yin and Li Yuan don't have enough weight in this matter, as for Xiang Yan, it's even worse.
The matter was so important that Xiang Yan didn't dare to delay at all, so he immediately dispatched his own soldiers to send the letter from Yang Ming to Shouchun.
Under the haste of the horse, the letter was quickly sent to the Chu Palace.
Empress Dowager Li, who was a little haggard due to the battle on the front line, had an unbelievable look in her tired eyes when she received the letter.
Qin Jun is willing to let people go?As for the price, as long as Qin Jun is willing to let it go, the price is completely negotiable.
Empress Dowager Li looked at the scroll in her hand, and blood appeared on her bloodless face, which was a feeling called excitement.
Looking at the Zhao Guo characters in the scroll, which had not been seen for a long time, Empress Dowager Li looked reminiscent.
Although Empress Dowager Li is now the Queen Mother of Chu, she grew up in Zhao Guo when she was young. Zhao Guo has carried too many memories of her. It can be said that Zhao Guo is her childhood. When Empress Dowager Li forgot, Zhao State was still her hometown, and Zhao State’s characters were still familiar to her. In Chu State, she saw the question from Zhao State again. Not to mention anything else, just words were enough to make her There is a slight sense of intimacy with the owner of the handwriting.
"Redeeming the Tenglong Legion? This fellow from the Zhao Kingdom is really interesting, but how can Aijia redeem the Tenglong Legion?" Queen Mother Li put away the memories of running away. Now is not the time for her to recall the past. It is of great importance, even related to the stability of her son's future throne, and she cannot afford to ignore it.
After discussing with his elder brother Li Yuan, a letter from the palace of Chu was sent to the front line, and appeared on Yang Ming's desk with Xiang Yan's hand.
"This matter is half done." Looking at the letter in his hand, Yang Ming showed a clear expression. At the Chu Palace, it is finally impossible to allow the Tenglong Legion to be destroyed. This business is almost done. As for the next thing, it is nothing more than bargaining.
However, regarding the final result, Yang Ming still has to wait for the news from Xianyang. Naturally, it is the fastest speed in the world to transmit information through the network, but it still takes quite a long time in the long distance between Pengcheng and Xianyang. for a while.
Although Yang Ming believed that Qin Wangzheng would not reject his suggestion, he had to follow the necessary procedures so as not to leave unnecessary troubles. Although Yang Ming was not afraid of those troubles, he hated those troubles the most. trouble.
In the royal palace in Xianyang City, Qin Wangzheng looked at the memorial presented by Yang Ming, his eyes moved between the rows of small seal characters, and Yang Ming's analysis of the situation in Chu State appeared in his mind completely and clearly.
"Is it a struggle within Chu?" Qin Wangzheng pondered, pushed the front of the book to the side of the desk, and said to Gai Nie who was beside him: "Mr. Memorial."
Hearing Qin Wangzheng's order, Gai Nie, who has always been reticent but thoughtful on his own, picked up the scroll, and when his eyes moved, he also had doubts similar to Qin Wangzheng.
"This is?" Gai Nie saw the last small seal script, and he was taught by Guiguzi since he was a child. His vision is wider than most people in the world, and he naturally knew the real meaning behind this scroll in an instant.
"Mr. Gai Nie, did Mr. Guiguzi really accept you and Wei Zhuang as two disciples?" Qin Wangzheng looked at Gai Nie and said, with a look of surprise on his face that was always moody.
The official affairs of the captain's mansion are handled by Yang Ming in an orderly manner, and Yang Ming can be invincible in wars. Now that even strategists are so proficient, how many things are there for Yang Ming? not reach?Regarding this question, Qin Wangzheng couldn't help being curious.
Qin Wangzheng only felt that Yang Ming's vision and insight in this simple memorial surpassed that of the real disciple of the political strategist beside him, but Yang Ming did not see the inheritance of his master from the beginning to the end.
What secrets does he have?Qin Wangzheng was thinking, and he had already unfolded a blank scroll, and the stroke of the pen in his palm was his permission.
