Feng Jie, the censor doctor, came out and said: "My lord, the three armies will go ahead without using food and grass. Daqin has not enough food and grass to support another war of destroying the country. Therefore, it is better to make peace for the time being."
Xiong Dian pondered for a long time, his elder brother has gone to retire, and their Xiong clan has already declined in Daqin.
He couldn't go on in such a muddle anymore, he had to stand out in front of the king.
"Your Majesty, since the Qi State has sent envoys, why don't you marry the princess of Qi State first to stabilize the State of Qi? Anyway, Your Majesty only has four concubines, which are too few..."
Ying Zheng: "..."
Ministers: "..."
Chapter 243 Liu Bang rebelled?
Xiong Dian saw that Ying Zheng didn't speak, and all the ministers looked at him with sharp eyes.
He suddenly thumped in his heart, did he say something wrong?
But the king accepts the concubine, this matter is not wrong for a man!
Which man doesn't like women?
"My lord servant, have you forgotten that the Empress Dowager Huayang passed away only a few months ago? What do you mean, that you want the king to be an unfaithful and unfilial person? After all, you are also a relative of the Empress Dowager Huayang..."
Xiong Dian was stunned, he actually forgot about it.
He knelt down on the ground with a plop, and shouted: "Your Majesty, forgive the guilty minister. The guilty minister is also thinking of the country and the country, and said something wrong for a while..."
"The minister is guilty of death!"
Ying Zheng glared at Xiong Dian, sighed, and said lightly: "The production of war horses has not been very good recently, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you should go to Saibei yourself!"
Xiong Dian looked frustrated, and cursed himself in his heart, why can't he kill him, suicide No.1!
For a place like Saibei, it would probably take about a year to go there by myself. Now that my eldest brother is not in the court, when I return, things will definitely be different. The Xiong clan may be gone.
"Yes, the criminal subject obeys!"
Next, some ministers also played, all about the recent farming affairs.
After the deliberations were over, Yingzheng once again retained some important personnel from the Sangong and Jiuqing, and held a small court meeting.
Ying Zheng said: "When Zhang He besieged Wei, he had already cleared the gap. Large warships could directly enter the gap and go straight to Shouchun, Chu, and surrounded Shouchun with lightning speed."
Yao Jia only knew that Zhang He and Wang Ben were besieging the State of Wei and were planning to flood Daliang City with water from the chasm.
At the same time, the spies in Daliang City of Wei State were used, and various schools of thought were used to scare the king of Wei into a false surrender with public opinion warfare.
He never expected that Zhang He's kid was just an illusory trick to strengthen the dams and repair the canals, and he turned out to go south to attack Chu.
He really didn't expect this.
And this bastard didn't even tell him, the Taiwei, which shows how confidential the matter is.
Li Si also sighed: "Take one step, look at three steps, Zhang Shangqing has a long-term vision, it has to be admired!"
After everyone heard about it, they all sighed, Zhang He was indeed very sinister.
But how did he know that King Wei would definitely surrender?
What puzzled everyone the most was that all the schools of thought listened to Zhang He, which was terrifying. What method did that guy use?
As for this point, perhaps only Ying Zheng knows, what promise did Ying Zheng make to the various schools of thought?
Zhang He really didn't dare to promise anything behind Ying Zheng's back, even if Zhang He made a promise, it was empty teeth, and all the scholars believed in him!
That guy wasn't telling the truth at all.
What's more, Daqin Yingzheng has the final say, but Zhang He's words are useless.
"Zhang He also said that Chu State is vast in land and resources, and its strategic depth is too long. It is impossible to win all of them in a short time. Maybe it can also plunge Daqin into the quagmire of war and make other countries revive."
"So, he suggested that the court should set up a posture to attack Chu State, let Chu State cede land and pay compensation, and slowly erode Chu State's territory."
Yao Jia's eyes lit up. This idea is actually the best. Although the speed may be slow, it is the least expensive and the most profitable.
"I agree with Zhang Shangqing's suggestion."
Wang Wan also said: "As long as it is beneficial to Daqin, I agree."
Li Sidao: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go to Chu State again as an envoy for the negotiation."
Ying Zheng smiled and said, "Good!"
The matter was settled in this way, and Ying Zheng directly issued a secret decree, asking Zhang He to urge Wei Guo to surrender as soon as possible.
Then take over the entire Wei State and launch a war against Chu State.
At the same time, Li Si was sent, and when Zhang He and others approached the border of Qin and Chu, or surrounded Shouchun, Li Si could go to Shouchun to negotiate.
In the territory of Wei State, there were huge crowds of people on both sides of the entire chasm. They worked hard day and night to dig canals and strengthen the embankments.
15 people started working together, and today is the tenth day.
From Xingyang in Han to the south of Daliang, the entire gap has basically been repaired.
The water from the Yellow River was poured into the chasm from Xingkou, and the river filled the entire chasm at once, but after the chasm was reinforced, the water flow was gentle and the water volume was quite stable.
It all depends on Zheng Guo, the hydraulic engineer.
He designed several valves in Xingkou, which can adjust the water volume in time. After Zhang He watched the project, he had to sigh that Zheng Guo was really a talent.
"General, after ten days, the gap has been completely repaired. I will retire first. There is still a section of the Zhengguo Canal in Qin State that needs to be repaired..."
Zhang He bowed and said: "The repairing of the gap this time will benefit the present and contribute to the future. Mr. Zheng Guo is really the minister of the humerus of the Great Qin Dynasty. He will report to the king, and he will be credited for destroying Chu."
Zheng Guo smiled and said: "The general is a great talent. I still have a lot of things to ask the general for advice, but I don't have time. Hahaha, when I return to Xianyang, I hope the general will not despise me!"
"Where, where! Mr. Zheng Guo, come here, I know everything."
"Okay, let's talk about it then."
After Zhang He and Zheng Guo bid farewell, they drove all the boats moored by the Yellow River into the chasm, covering the canal and river surface of the chasm.
Then headed south, and drove directly to the harbor built near Daliang to anchor, and waited for the surrender of Wei State, and then suddenly went south to force Chu State.
Three days later, Wei Wang's vacation was finally ready.
The king of Wei pretended to take his ministers with him, bound his hands to accept surrender, and presented a map of the whole country and a jade seal.
Naturally, it was Wang Ben himself who accepted the false surrender of King Wei.
Zhang He said that the water attack on Daliang City was proposed by Wang Ben. Wei Wang pretended to surrender because he was frightened by the tactic of water attack, so he surrendered. The first contribution should be Wang Ben's.
Therefore, accepting surrender should be done by Wang Ben.
Wang Ben was extremely helpless, and secretly slapped himself a few big mouths.
Then take the generals to the city gate to receive the surrender and take over Daliang City.
And Zhang He was already preparing to go south, and he planned to leave an army of [-] in Daliang.
The six thousand cavalry were replenished from places like Shangdang and Xianyang after this period of time, and now there are another [-] cavalry.
The heavy armored cavalry was replenished to five thousand.
Moreover, the [-] cavalry, led by Li Xin, first dismounted from the girder and headed southeast, preparing to station near Xunyang first, and then attack Shouchun from the side.
And Zhang He's will take the infantry and crossbowmen, go straight south by boat, kill the defenders on both sides of the chasm, and go straight to Shouchun, so that the Chu army guarding the border between Wei and Chu will be confused for a while.
It's just that when Zhang He was preparing, Qiang Li, who was heading to the east of Wei State to recover Weidi, received a battle report.
It is said that Pei County was occupied by a group of young soldiers. They stood firm and resisted to the death. Do they want to attack the city?
Zhang He was dumbfounded, young soldier?
Looking down again, I cursed in my heart, isn't Liu Ji just that bastard Liu Bang?
How did you start rebelling so early?
Chapter 244 Facing Daqin Bingfeng, Liu Ji Xiaohe was dumbfounded
Zhang He said coldly: "Tell Qiang Yan that if he stubbornly resists, the Fa will be rectified on the spot, and tell the people there that if he follows Liu Ji to mess around, he will be punished..."
The messenger went to Pei County with Zhang He's order, but Zhang He didn't pay attention to Liu Ji at all. How could he, a young Liu Ji, be able to fight against the current Daqin Bingfeng?
Even Liu Ji in his heyday may not be the opponent of Daqin at this moment.
Historically, during the reign of Qin II Huhai, because Yingzheng deployed a large army on the frontier to resist the invasion of foreign races, this gave the anti-Qin forces in the Central Plains a chance to take advantage of it.
At the same time, the Qin law did not keep pace with the times and was too strict in peacetime, which caused relatives and neighbors to make small mistakes and had to sit together. In addition to the construction of the Great Wall and palaces, the corvee was heavy, which made many people dissatisfied, and even I can't go on.
Such as the Chen Sheng Wu Guang uprising, heavy rain, unable to reach the destination on time.
According to the law of Qin, he would be beheaded. It would be better to rebel and then be killed. He would die anyway, so why not die vigorously?
At this moment, the life of the people of Qin State is the life that the people of other countries in the Central Plains most envy.
There is no way for Liu Ji to rebel against the State of Wei. Daqin's army has come to give life to the people of Pei County. If Liu Ji dares to rebel against the State of Qin, no one will follow him.
Qiang Yan of Peixian County, with [-] infantry, has occupied Wandi in the north near Qi State. This was once the land of Qin State. Now that the Qin army has come, it has regained its homeland.
The local people welcomed the arrival of the Qin army very much, but it was connected to the Qi State, so Qiang Li left the army in Wandi.
He brought only 5000 people to the south and arrived in Peixian County. What made Qiang Yan dumbfounded was that a young man who called himself Liu Ji led the local people and the officers and soldiers of Peixian County to kill the deputy prime minister of Wei State and occupied Peixian County. After arriving in Pei County, this guy still refused to open the city.
Just attacking here by force may cause unnecessary casualties, and most of the defenders here are child soldiers, so he really can't do it.
"General Qiang, the general's military order, call out first to let them surrender, and they will be spared the death penalty. Those who are stubborn will be punished on the spot."
In the evening, Zhang He's order came to Pei County.
Having received Zhang He's military order, Qiang Lu didn't have any worries anymore, and directly ordered his personal guards to speak to Liu Ji.
"Quickly open the city gate, the King of Wei has already surrendered, and the entire territory of Wei State belongs to Qin State at this moment, so you are from Qin State."
"Opening the city gate now means surrendering. You have made no mistakes. If you continue to resist, the general will order you to execute the law on the spot..."
Downstairs, Qin Bing shouted loudly. Upstairs, Liu Ji was wearing a large armor, holding a long sword in his hand, and his face was ugly.
Unexpectedly, the Qin people captured the capital of Wei State so quickly, and the king surrendered.
They captured Pei County and the people had just lived a good life, and they no longer had to worry about being killed or taken into the army.
But the Qin people came, and there were thousands of them. Their weapons were excellent and their lethality was very powerful.
Lu Wan listened to the roar of the city, not only the two groups were fighting, they killed the Prime Minister of Wei Guo, it was opportunistic.
They tied up the prime minister of Wei Guo, so that Wei Jun would not dare to act rashly, and this was successful.
But facing the Qin army, how can they win?
"Liu Ji, why don't we surrender, if we continue like this, they will kill us..."
The other teenagers around him also said: "Brother Liu, let's surrender. I heard that the king of Qin treats the people very well."
Liu Ji looked at Xiao He who was silent and frowning, and asked, "Brother Xiao, what's your opinion?"
Xiao He looked at the thousands of Qin cavalry outside the city, and then at the young men in the city.
The soldiers of the Qin people who fought in a hundred battles, armed with long spears, long knives, and even bows and crossbows, what do they have?
Some bronze swords were obtained from Prime Minister Wei Guo, and more importantly, some of these people in the city have peed their pants.
"Brother Liu Ji, don't be afraid, what we are creating is the rebellion against Wei, not Qin. As long as the people of Qin promise to let the people live a better life, then our goal will be achieved."
Liu Ji nodded, that's right, as long as the Qin people promise the people of Pei County to live a good life, and not to arrest strong men or send stupid officials, they will surrender.
"That's okay, brother Xiao, you are a cultural person, and you usually have a lot of ideas, this time I will work hard for you."
Liu Ji took Xiao He aside and said in a low voice, "Brother Xiao, I heard that those who have done meritorious service to the Qin State will be rewarded for their meritorious service. We killed the Prime Minister of the State of Wei, so we must tell the people of Qin that we are doing it for the people of Qin... ..."
Xiao He nodded, he will discuss this with Qin Jun properly.
Under the castle.
Qiang Li looked at the city camp with a cold face. His own soldiers had shouted at them for so long, but they still didn't respond. This is the preparation for a tenacious resistance!
"Stop shouting, bring up the big crossbow and teach them a lesson."
"There is also a Liannu, let me put it within 200 meters in front of the city. After two waves, I will go to the city to fight." Qiang Yan issued the military order indifferently.
Xiao He and Liu Ji had just negotiated, and they hadn't even walked to the city when their heads suddenly felt cold, and then the tiles flew randomly...
"Fuck, what's the situation?"
