Chapter 542 One thing cannot be remembered for a lifetime
It was getting dark, and the sights that could be seen clearly seemed to be covered with a fine black veil, making it difficult to see clearly.
Outside Daliang City, three thousand soldiers erected a large cowhide tent around the commander. It took some effort to block the cold winter wind, but the spring breeze at the end of March was more than enough.
This is where the second emperor will rest tonight, but he still doesn't want to enter Daliang.
The internal layout of the big tent is simple and is divided into five areas. The four tents in the southeast, northwest, middle, southeast, and northwest all cover an area of 100 square meters, and are all guarded. The middle tent is less than 30 square meters, and the two emperors lived here.
Maximize safety and security.
The generals of the Qin Dynasty filed out of the city gate, passed through the personal guards, and after confirming their identities at the entrance of the tent, entered wearing Qin swords and butcher knives.
The current King of Qin does not value this, and seems not to be afraid of being backstabbed by his own general at all.
Everyone entered the east tent and was led by the guards to the west tent. The second emperor had already been waiting here.
The Qin Dynasty was located in the far west of the Central Plains, so most of the important matters were discussed in the Western Tent. Of course, this is not guaranteed, and it mainly depends on the mood of the second emperor.
"When the ministers entered the palace, a total of 2,273 people from the Wei royal family were killed..."
Liu Bang was the first to step forward and immersed himself in reporting. Among the generals, he was the most anxious.
One more word can lead to rapid success, or it can lead to falling into the abyss.
After saying this, the second emperor nodded, and had no words to say that Liu Bang had done the work that was supposed to be assigned to Fan Kuai. He seemed to have something in his mind and said lightly.
“Well done.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Liu Bang let out a long breath, his heart dropped. He was so happy that he even felt at a loss to reply.
At this time, you should not express gratitude, but should rely on the fact that this is what a minister should do, or that it is fortunate that he has lived up to his duty.
Most people behave abnormally when they are nervous, and Liu Bang was no exception.
The Emperor of the Han Dynasty, who was supposed to stir up troubles in the world, now does not ask for any rewards. Aren't those things just a word from His Majesty? As long as he can make up for his mistakes, he will be satisfied.
This response was louder than before. Ying Chengyu, who had been looking down at the map of Wei State, blinked his eyes, raised his head, and fixed his gaze on Liu Bang's relieved face, and the focus was fixed.
Liu Bang tensed up, not knowing whether it was a blessing or a curse, but he waited for the referee respectfully.
"Are you married to Mrs. Cao?"
Thousands of developments flashed through Liu Bang's mind. He never thought that he would be asked this question, and his brain began to storm.
[Does Your Majesty want to grant me a marriage? Or does it depend on my character? Is it going to be a mess at first but give up in the end?]
The correct answers to these two development paths are completely different.
If you are given a marriage, you must say that you have separated a long time ago. If it depends on your character, you should say that you are planning a wedding.
[Your Majesty has no heirs yet, and no daughter to marry. The late king and the prince died under strange circumstances, so the daughter of the late king will not be allowed to cause trouble, and the chance of getting married is slim.]
As soon as he thought of this, Liu Bang had a happy smile on his face.
"We are planning a wedding."
"It's very good. Remember to bring me a wedding wine when you get married. I will also be happy."
Liu Bang was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly, but he was at a loss for words again.
Many of the generals looked envious, saying that this marriage could be regarded as the emperor's choice.
[It seems that Your Majesty has forgiven Liu Bang and asked this question. Your Majesty attaches great importance to character...]
The generals thought.
From then on, in the second generation of the Qin Dynasty, there was only one case of military commanders and civil servants who could ascend to the court, and there was only one case of divorce and divorce.
Ying Chengyu smiled and nodded, still thinking about the map of Wei State in his mind. He didn't know that he just asked casually because he had nothing to say, and it changed the fate of the Cao family and the atmosphere of the Qin Dynasty.
Liu Ji to Liu Bang was not just a change of names, but a major change from the inside out.
Ever since she embraced the King of Qin, became his favorite, became a genuine general of Qin, and saw a wider world and many charming beauties, Widow Cao, a flower in Peixian County, has become a broken willow.
No matter in terms of beauty, knowledge, family background, or help, Widow Cao from a small county had no advantage. Liu Bang had long disliked Widow Cao, and the two of them went from talking about everything to having nothing to talk about.
What Liu Bang was talking about was to invite Xiao He, who was in charge of Su Neishi Mansion, to explore the situation and see how long and where the war could go with Da Qin's money and food.
Widow Cao was talking about her big dog becoming more and more edible.
Class has no physical object, but it does exist.
It's not that he, Liu Bang, doesn't miss his old friendship, but that he really has nothing in common with Widow Cao, who doesn't want to study and progress, and keeps talking about how the ruffian from Peixian County acted like a rogue back then.
Liu Bang did not think that he was ruthless and unjust. He would also recall the past when he knocked on the widow's door at night in Peixian County, and would also smile and say a few words to Cao. But after talking about this matter, the two of them had nothing to say.
Already.
One thing cannot be remembered for a lifetime.
But because Ying Chengyu asked today, this matter has been on my mind for a lifetime.
The generals reported what they had done in Daliang in turn, and they all completed their tasks.
Ying Chengqiao tilted his head, thought for a moment, and said:
"Meng Tian stays, while the rest return to the city to rest."
The generals responded and retreated on their own under the guidance of the guards.
When there were only two people left in the western tent, Ying Chengyu held the wooden map with both hands and briefly told Meng Tian about Qi's coming for aid.
The color in Meng Tian's eyes stabilized. After digesting the information, he said in a deep voice:
"Li Xin led ten thousand cavalry to chase the enemy. He has not returned yet. Something must have happened. You are the most familiar with Li Xin. Do you think he can become a famous general?
"If you think he can do it, let him suffer this defeat. If you think he doesn't have this potential, I will send troops to rescue him immediately!"
Meng Tian’s brows narrowed slightly.
He had dealt with Ying Chengxuan since he was the Lord of Chang'an, and knowing that the First Emperor faked his death, he knew that the two emperors were not narrow-minded.
So speak boldly.
"Go deep into the land of Wei and hide it from everyone. The number of people is definitely not large. Two thousand are already here with the king of Qi. How many people can be left? Thousands of people? Qin's thousands of cavalry chase Qi's thousands of cavalry. We are in Qin. How can we fight?
Can they be defeated? They have not returned yet. It is believed that the enemy troops have scattered and fled, and Li Xin intends to capture them all."
What kind of famous general is not a famous general? If he can still be defeated, he should wipe his neck as soon as possible!
Dark sky, dim moon.
As the surging Deshui River flowed, Li Xin sat on his horse and looked at the Qi army waiting by the Deshui River.
The terrain here is not complicated, and it is a node where Deshui River is diverted.
From the approximate path, you can see that there is a sunken area, and the Qi army is inside the sunken area. Except for the front, it can be said that there is almost water on the left, right, and back.
Li Xin could tell at a glance that this was done deliberately to prevent the Qin cavalry from attacking from both wings. If he simply relied on Deshui with his back, the unrestricted Qin cavalry could rush through him in two back and forth directions.
After finding this depression, only the Qin army can attack from the front, and the cavalry will be useless. At the speed of the cavalry charge, no matter how many Qi soldiers are killed along the way, they will fall into the De River.
