"In this battle, our army lost four generals: Hu Yang, Sima Jin, Li Yao, and Zhao Zao. Since Lord Shang's reform, our Great Qin has never suffered such a heavy loss."
Bai Qi's face was dark, the joint of his right hand holding the Long Yuan Sword was a little white, and his body exuded a cold chill.
No one spoke, and everyone had not yet recovered from their defeat.
Sima Jian looked at the empty seat next to him, thinking of his captured son, and couldn't help but feel sad, and his eyes turned red.
"The responsibility for this battle lies with me, and I will report the truth to the king." Then, Bai Qi said in a deep voice.
The generals raised their heads and looked at Bai Qi in surprise. For such a serious loss, even Bai Qi would be deprived of his title and might even be executed.
"However, this battle is not over yet. Our army will definitely win the final victory. All you have to do is continue to obey my orders." Bai Qi said without any doubt.
The appearance of Le Yi and Tian Dan was indeed beyond his expectation, but so what?
Changping has beautiful landscapes.
It’s just right to bury a few famous generals!
"promise."
All the generals shouted in unison.
They believed in Bai Qi and Da Qin behind him, and they would definitely win the final victory.
"General, the things have been brought to the yard." At this time, a soldier walked in and reported.
Bai Qi stood up and strode to the courtyard, followed closely by the generals.
This was a war horse equipped with a saddle and stirrups. The Qin army tried their best to snatch one and brought it back.
Bai Qi turned over on the horse and put his feet into the stirrups. He immediately felt a sense of stability. Moreover, the front and back of the saddle were raised high, which stabilized his body shape and he did not have to worry about his body moving back and forth.
Bai Qi raised his legs and clamped the horse's belly. The horse was in pain and started running wildly in the yard. He sat on the horse, his body was stable and there was no feeling of shaking.
"It's really a good thing. Such two simple gadgets directly improve the combat effectiveness of the cavalry. I didn't expect that there are such capable people in the Zhao army."
Bai Qi rode twice, got off the horse, caressed the saddle and stirrups, and couldn't put it down.
"Immediately send this horse to Xianyang, and let the king arrange for the young man to build this horse and equip all the cavalry." Bai Qi ordered.
"General... our cavalry... have all been killed." Wang Hao said in a low voice.
Bai Qi was stunned for a moment, sighed, and said sadly: "It's me who is in trouble. I will ask the king to send more troops."
Wang Hao looked at Bai Qi in front of him. There were a few silver strands in his originally black hair, and his nose couldn't help but feel sore.
It turns out that the Optimus Prime of Great Qin will also grow old one day...
…
Xianyang.
Qin Wangji is holding a small meeting with several important officials of the Qin State to finalize the recent matters that need to be dealt with, and will inform the general meeting tomorrow.
There are so many people in the Qin State, but the only ones who can really make decisions are the few in front of them. No matter what, if these few don't nod, there's no way it can be carried out.
As for the court meeting, it is not used to discuss matters.
Dozens or even more than a hundred ministers are discussing in a large hall, and no results can be achieved even in a day.
Of course, when holding a court meeting, you still have to think about it, give everyone time to discuss, and announce the things that have been decided, so that everyone feels that they are taken seriously.
"Your Majesty, now that Qin and Zhao are at war, Lord Wu An will surely defeat the Zhao army in the near future. Zhao may harm Wang Sun Yiren, so why not take Wang Sun Yiren back to the country?"
After the discussion was over, Prime Minister Fan Ju took a step forward and spoke cautiously while checking King Qin Ji's face. If there was any impatience on King Qin's face, he would stop.
"Wang Sun Yiren?" Qin Wangji asked strangely.
Well, seeing this expression, Fan Ju knew that Qin Wangji had long forgotten that he had this grandson.
In fact, not only King Ji of Qin, Fan Ju also didn't know that there was a king and grandson named Yiren who was holding hostage in Zhao State, until a businessman named Lu Buwei came to him last night...
"The foreigner is the crown prince's son. He has been a hostage in the Zhao Kingdom since he was a child. He has always been a virtuous person. Now that he has grown up, he should be recalled to the country to arrange for a teacher to teach him well." Yangquan Jun said next to him.
Lu Buwei also met him yesterday.
"In that case, let the prince handle this matter." Qin Wangji waved his hand. He had dozens of grandsons, but he couldn't even recognize them. How could he manage so many.
Yang Quanjun wanted to say something else, but at this moment, a guard wearing black black bird uniform walked in quickly.
"Your Majesty, urgent report from the front."
The eunuch next to him quickly walked over to take the urgent report and handed it to King Qin Ji.
"Haha, it must be the news of Lord Wu An's victory." Qin Wangji said happily.
Fan Ju's eyes narrowed, and he had a very bad feeling in his heart.
If the battle is won, the guards will definitely shout 'Good news from the front line', not 'Urgent news from the front line.'
However, Qin Wangji didn't notice this. He opened the battle report excitedly, his expression suddenly changed, and he kicked the soldiers away.
"Zhao Guo!" Qin Wangji roared.
"Your Majesty, I wonder what's going on?" At this time, only Fan Ju dared to speak.
"Wu'an Jun was defeated." Qin Wangji threw the battle report in front of Fan Ju.
Fan Ju quickly picked up the battle report, opened it, and was shocked, "This...how is this possible...how could Le Yi and Tian Dan appear in Changping."
"What? Le Yi and Tian Dan are in Changping?" A man with a rough face and a body no less than a Yan Xiong screamed next to him.
If Le Yi saw this man, he would definitely recognize him, because he was the Qin State Wei Sili who led the Qin army to Le Yi's five kingdoms to conquer Qi.
Si Li was originally from Shu. After Sima Cuo destroyed Shu, he began to follow the Qin State. Because he was brave and good at fighting and loyal to the Qin State, he was quickly promoted to the rank of Lieutenant and won the trust of the King of Qin.
"I didn't expect that the State of Zhao made Zhao Kuo a general on the surface, but secretly ordered Le Yi and Tian Dan to be a general." Qin Wangji said in a deep voice.
He thought that secretly replacing Wang Lu with Bai Qi was insidious enough, but who would have thought that Zhao Guo was even more insidious than him!
"Everyone, tell me what should be done?" King Qin suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at several important ministers.
"Your Majesty, Bai Qi suffered heavy losses this time and should be executed for his crime." Jingyang Lord Qin Fu said immediately.
Bai Qi was recommended by Wei Ran. Wei Ran was the prime minister of Qin State. Qin Fu was the general of Qin State and had conflicts with Wei Ran.
Now that Bai Qi is in trouble, Qin Fu is naturally adding insult to injury.
"Your Majesty, even if he is punished, he should wait until the end of the war. He must not be punished now." Fan Ju immediately stopped him.
Although he also had conflicts with Bai Qi, he knew that Bai Qi was the most capable general of the Qin State. If he could not defeat the Zhao State, no one else would be able to defeat the Zhao State.
If Qin wins this war, Bai Qi will kill him.
If he loses, Bai Qi will never kill him.
"What do you think, Ai Qing?" Qin Wangji looked at Fan Ju.
"Send troops to support Lord Wu'an. In addition, your Majesty can send people from the Xuandiao Division to the Kingdom of Zhao, bribe King Zhao's personal servant Dan, and lure King Zhao's generals Lian Po, Tian Dan, and Le Yi back to Handan. At that time, Lord Wu'an will deal with Zhao Kuo and Li Mu
It's easy for two inexperienced teenagers to do this," Fan Ju said.
"Instruct Zhang Tang to lead 20,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantry to support Lord Wu'an." After a while, King Ji of Qin said.
When the war reached this level, Zhao State could no longer hold on, but Qin State was not much better than Zhao State. It was just holding on with one breath.
"Your Majesty is wise." Several people leaned over and said.
"Is there anyone in the Xuandiao Division in Handan?" Qin Wangji looked at the guards beside him.
"Your Majesty, yes." The guard bowed and said
"Send someone to contact and find a way to bribe King Zhao's servants, no matter how much money it costs." Qin Wangji said.
