Chapter 300 Xiangguo Zhongfu and Yang Ming
The entire army of [-] was wiped out, the entire army of [-], and the elite of [-].
One hundred thousand families lost their pillars in this battle, and Qin Wangzheng lost one hundred thousand capable soldiers. Even with Qin's national strength, facing the loss of one hundred thousand elites, he would still be hurt.
Looking at the cold words in the military newspaper, Qin Wangzheng couldn't help but think of Yang Ming's advice to him.
"Is the widow really wrong?" Qin Wangzheng pondered, and for the first time in his life, doubts about himself appeared in his heart.
"Huan Jue misunderstood me." Qin Wangzheng clenched his fists as he thought about it.
But no matter how angry Qin Wangzheng is, he must suppress his anger right now, because Qin Jun's defeat of Zhao State will inevitably cause a series of chain reactions. Back then, when Meng Ao attacked Wei State, he was defeated by Lord Xinling. The country took advantage of the situation to form a joint vertical coalition army, advancing all the way at Hangu Pass, and this time the Qin army was wiped out by an army of [-], which was even more tragic than Meng Ao's defeat of Wei State back then. The vertical coalition army, what situation is Qin going to face?
Thinking of this, Qin Wangzheng didn't care about other things at all, but hurriedly sent his servants to the residences of the Xiangguo Mansion and Changping Jun's Mansion, the residences of the important officials of the Qin State. How should we deal with the turmoil that may be caused by Huanju's defeat at the moment? In order to deal with the situation, Qin must come up with a charter.
Over the years, although the Qin State repelled the coalition forces of various countries time and time again, the process was not easy. Which time was not a gamble?When is it not dancing on the tip of the knife?If possible, how could Qin be willing to face such a situation again?
Lu Buwei, who came to Xianyang Palace in a hurry, just got off the carriage when he saw Lord Changping who also came in a hurry, and Duke Mo who had already disarmed and returned to the field.
The three of Lu Buwei looked at each other, and they all saw the seriousness in each other's eyes.
Immediately ignoring greetings, hurried forward.
When the three of them came to the middle hall of Xianyang Palace, they found that Qin Wangzheng was the only one in the huge hall, even the general Li Xin and the CRRC Mansion Commander Zhao Gao were never by Qin Wangzheng's side.
The three of Lu Buwei had not yet sat down after seeing the ceremony with Qin Wangzheng, Qin Wangzheng's voice sounded in the hall: "General Huanjue was defeated by Zhao Guo's General Li Mu, and the [-] troops were all lost."
What?The figures of Lu Buwei and the three who were about to sit down froze in the distance.
"Your Majesty, did the army die, not the defeat?" Gong Gong asked with his white beard trembling.
The gap between defeat and total annihilation is still huge.
"The whole army was wiped out." The tassels on the crown covered Qin Wangzheng's face. No one knew what kind of mood he was in now, but in the hearts of Lu Buwei and Xiong Qi, they all felt heavy pressure.
That was an army of [-]. Even if the Five Kingdoms joined forces to attack Qin a few years ago, Qin would not lose [-] troops when the coalition forces were repulsed. Now...
"Your Majesty, the current situation is changing, Qin should make plans early." Lu Buwei said.
"What does Xiangguo have to say?" Qin Wangzheng asked.
"Zhao State lost one hundred thousand troops first, but now, although he has defeated the general, he is still injured and does not have enough strength to counterattack our Qin State, Chu State and Wei State, which are really threatening to our Qin State." Lu Buwei Quickly analyze the situation.
Qin State lost [-] soldiers, although it was a wound, but in terms of the overall strength of Qin State, it was still the best in the world. The threat is Chu and Wei. Once Wei and Chu feel that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it, and then organize another alliance, Qin will really have a headache.
Especially in these years, the state of Qin has been expanding eastward along the banks of the great river. Now it starts from Hedong County in the west, passes through Shangdang, Hanoi, and Dongjun, except for Yecheng and Anyang, which are still in the hands of Zhao State. , the Qin army has occupied both sides of the river, and the strategy of blocking the three Jin kingdoms has almost been realized.
However, when the trend is favorable, the line between Hanoi and Dongjun is a sharp sword that blocks the kingdom of the Jin Dynasty, but when the trend is against the trend, from Hanoi to Dongjun is an overly long and narrow front line drawn by the Qin State, which is extremely easy. Being cut off, Qin's sharp sword stretched out along the great river, while sharp, was also fragile.
Now that the Qin army is newly defeated, if Wei and Chu find the right opportunity to join them, once Chu, Zhao, and Wei join forces, South Korea will inevitably join in. At that time, it will inevitably be another battle of all countries to attack Qin.
And Lu Buwei, a seasoned veteran, saw the crisis in the first place.
"Does Xiangguo have a good strategy?" Qin Wangzheng asked, he can also see what Lu Buwei saw, but he still needs to listen to the opinions of Lu Buwei and others if he wants to resolve the current unfavorable situation.
"It is not too difficult to solve the current crisis. Although Wang Jian, Yang Duan and their troops have not won a big victory, they have not been defeated either. They still have an army of [-] to [-] in their hands. Let the two withdraw their troops and retreat to the top. Dang County, Yang Duan and Shangdang, and Wang Jian stationed in Taiyuan County to prevent the resurgence of the people in Zhao's hometown." Lu Buwei explained the strategy to Qin Wangzheng in an orderly manner.
"Xiangguo, now the captain of the guard army and the forbidden army of dragon and tiger are in Hedong County, why not let the captain of the guard army lead the forbidden army of dragon and tiger to station in Taiyuan county, isn't it more convenient than letting Wang Jian station in Taiyuan county?" Xiong Qi questioned.
"There are more important matters between the Captain of the Guardian Army and the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army." Lu Buwei glanced at Xiong Qi, and then explained to Qin Wangzheng.
"Where should the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army be transferred?" Qin Wangzheng asked.
"Dongjun." Lu Buwei said.
"Dongjun?" Qin Wangzheng was slightly surprised.
"Your Majesty, it is Dongjun. The Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army is stationed in Dongjun. With the prestige of the captain of the guard, you can deter Chu's old Lu land in the east, and you can approach Jishui in the south to put pressure on the beams of Wei. , enough to make Chu and Wei not dare to act rashly." Lu Buwei said.
Listening to Lu Buwei's speech one after another about the Chu state, the advantage of deterrence, but not daring to act rashly, Xiong Qi felt a little uncomfortable, but he also knew that what Lu Buwei said was indeed the best choice.
Qin Wangzheng was also uncomfortable, but he was uncomfortable because of Yang Ming. Thinking of Yang Ming's advice to him, if he hadn't insisted on going his own way, he firmly believed that the Qin army would achieve greater victories, but it was good. That's good, Qin would not experience such a disastrous defeat, nor would there be such a crisis, so how could Qin Wangzheng not feel a little bit about it.
"Duke Mo, what do you think of Xiangguo's words?" Suppressing the awkwardness in his heart, Qin Wangzheng asked Duke Mo.
"The Prime Minister is old enough to seek the country, and the strategy he said is feasible." Li, who had already entered retirement life, said openly.
"Then follow Xiangguo's words." Qin Wangzheng said.
With the finalization of the strategy, Qin Wangzheng began to draft an edict, and Lu Buwei and others were also preparing to leave.
But for more than a year, Qin Wangzheng, who became more and more indifferent to Lu Buwei, changed his normal routine and sent Lu Buwei directly to the palace gate.
"Father Zhong is well-informed and resourceful, which is exactly what Qin needs. I hope Father Zhong can help the widows more in the future." Qin Wangzheng said sincerely to Lu Buwei, just like the boy he used to be.
"For the sake of the king and the country of Qin, the old minister should do his best." Hearing the previous title from Qin Wangzheng again, Lu Buwei's heart moved, as if he had regained his previous feeling.
Looking at the frame of Lu Buwei going away, the smile in Qin Wangzheng's eyes suddenly disappeared, replaced by a burst of coldness.
When Qin Wangzheng returned to the main hall, Zhao Gao, who was the edict of CRRC, had already prepared the edict. He only had to wait for Qin Wangzheng to stamp the seal before sending it to Hedong County and the Qin Army who were still on the southern line of Zhao State.
"Wait, it's better for the widow to write a private letter to the guard." Qin Wangzheng suddenly pressed down on the edict that was about to be sent to Hedong County.
"Your Majesty, the captain of the guarding army has long thought that the general will be defeated by the Zhao army, and he once told the king that the general is indeed defeated by the Zhao army. Will the captain of the guarding army be very proud at this time?" Zhao Gao Watching Qin Wangzheng carefully, he said something that would kill him.
Sure enough, as Zhao Gao's words echoed in Qin Wangzheng's ears, Qin Wangzheng couldn't help but stare at him. It's not like he didn't think of this possibility.
If Qin Wangzheng is a fatuous person and the Qin army is defeated, he will definitely turn his anger on Yang Ming, thinking that Yang Ming will read his jokes, and a similar incident will really happen hundreds of years later in another similar time and space. However, Qin Wangzheng is Qin Wangzheng after all, but it will not affect national affairs because of his own mood.
Therefore, when he heard Zhao Gao's words suspected of sowing dissension, Qin Wangzheng's mind just paused for a moment, and then he said: "Bold, criticize important officials of the court, do you know what crime this is?"
"Your Majesty, it's the servant girl who speaks indiscriminately and asks the Majesty to come down." Zhao Gao quickly admitted his mistake in panic when he heard the words.
"If you are a first-time offender, forget about it. If I let others hear similar words in the future, I will cut off your head so that you won't make a fuss in front of them." Qin Wangzheng reprimanded.
Then in the hands of Qin Wangzheng, a letter written on the silk script was quickly formed. After the letter was sealed into the scroll, it was sent out of Xianyang Palace together with the edict sent to Hedong County, heading northwest.
On the other side, Lu Buwei returned to the mansion and went straight to the study, with a faint smile on his increasingly aged face.
Qin Wangzheng's voice Zhongfu still echoed in his ears at this moment, and Lu Buwei, who was in a good mood, was completely relieved. The original choice was ultimately correct. He had faced countless choices in his life, and every time he All choices are correct, and so is the current choice.
At the beginning, Qin Wangzheng made every effort to attack Zhao, but he didn't say a word, because he expected what would happen today. Qin might be unlucky, but for him, Lu Buwei, it was another matter.
"After all, the king is still too young. Without an old minister like me to help him watch, he will easily make mistakes that young people would make." Lu Buwei said to himself, with a sense of complacency in his expression.
