Compared with the solemn atmosphere before, where the whole Xianyang was like dark clouds, this time above the court, the dark clouds dispersed and the sun was shining across the sky.
victory!
The impact on a country is difficult to estimate!
Because the partial division was defeated, the imperial court breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, with the victory of this war, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Especially Li Si!
This suggestion was made by Li Si to develop the foundation within the Qin State and use war to confuse the outside world. When Hengqian was defeated for the first time, the pressure Li Si endured was the highest in the entire Qin Dynasty.
If he were defeated again, Li Si would only think about dying. Fortunately, this battle was won, and the fruits of victory were quite big.
"Your Majesty, our Great Qin is not fully prepared at the moment. It is impossible to directly occupy the Zhao Kingdom. After all, Li Mu still exists in the Zhao Kingdom, and the Blood-clothed Marquis is still alive."
Wang Wan's eyes were bright and she raised her hand towards Ying Zhengyi: "I thought that Zhao should cede territory and pay compensation in exchange for temporary peace. In this way, we would take the opportunity to expand the combat power of our army."
"As for specific matters, the young master can be given the power to act in an advantageous manner and decide everything in Handan!"
Wang Wan had always been interested in Fusu, but at this moment, something changed in his heart. He knew in his heart that the eldest son Fusu was only an average talent.
But now Ying Gao has shown his sharpness and has the spirit of a tiger and a wolf. Although the position of Prince of Qin has not been clearly announced to the world, it has been equivalent to a clear announcement.
At this time, Wang Wan naturally didn't mind giving Ying Gao a favor.
He knows King Qin too well!
From Wang Wan's point of view, being a prince during the Qin Dynasty was undoubtedly a very happy thing. After all, with his unparalleled talents and heroic abilities, he would never be suspicious of his prince, nor would he have to worry about the prince showing his talents.
"Your Majesty, I also agree with what Chang Shi said. Now the imperial court's understanding of the Handan matter is far less than that of Young Master Gao. Having Young Master Gao make the final decision can avoid accidents!"
Li Si also nodded, raised his hand towards Ying Zheng, and said word by word: "Now that our army has won a great victory, and Young Master Gaozeng has led his army to attack Xinzheng, it's time for your Majesty to reward you based on your merits."
At this moment, the attitude of the court was very clear, which was to authorize Ying Gao to act cheaply, and at the same time, let King Zhao cede territory and pay compensation to seek peace.
After the long case, Ying Zheng was thinking in his mind. He was analyzing the pros and cons of this matter.
"According to Wang Wan's words, the matter of Handan will be decided by Young Master Gao himself!" After a while, Ying Zheng made a decision and ordered Zhao Gao on one side, saying,
"promise."
Ying Zheng has always had a deep attachment to Handan, but he also knew that with his status, it was impossible for him to go to Handan without the destruction of the Zhao Kingdom.
Even if he goes, it won't change anything. He didn't do it to meet King Zhao, but just to show off his power. It's not worth it.
"The imperial officer's office will collect statistics on military exploits and will give a grand reward after the squadron returns to the court!"
"promise."
Meng Wu nodded and agreed. He was happy to see the outcome of this battle. After all, it was not only Meng Tian who participated in it.
Similarly, as the commander-in-chief of the Wansheng Army, Changsun Mengliao not only made great achievements in this battle, but also fought against Li Mu, so he must have benefited a lot.
Fighting against strong generals and tempering on the battlefield will make a person grow rapidly, just like Ying Gao. Once on the battlefield, he will be like a tiger freed from its cage.
Overbearing and destructive!
…
At this time, Meng Wu's feelings towards Ying Gao were complicated. From the beginning, their Meng clan was originally on the side of the eldest son Fusu.
After all, he had taught Fusu before and could also be said to be Fusu's teacher. However, Meng Tian was above Jiuyuan and was granted the title of Marquis because of Ying Gao. This further deepened the relationship between Meng Tian and Ying Gao.
This time, Meng Liao became Ying Gao's confidant and took charge of the Wansheng Army. At the age of fifteen, he had already gone to the battlefield and made great achievements.
Caught between Fusu and Gongzi Gao, Meng Wu was in a dilemma. He knew in his heart that Gongzi Gao was dazzling, but Gongzi Fusu was not without his advantages.
"Why!"
…
Lingshou.
Li Mu's army was stationed here, and the news that Handan had been conquered had come. This made Li Mu feel a little disappointed. After all, he lost this battle.
"General, now that Handan has been conquered, the king has been captured by the Qin army, and the Qin army in Panwu and other places has retreated, what will happen to our army now?"
Sima of the Central Army looked pale. He stood in the shogunate and looked at Li Mu who was like a sharp sword. He said: "The envoy from Handan arrived outside the shogunate and brought the king's edict!"
"call……"
After taking a long breath, Li Mu gave the order decisively, saying: "The generals must hold on tight. In this time of crisis, the morale of the military cannot be shaken!"
"After this matter is over, I will apologize to the king!"
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Sima of the Central Army turned and left. In the shogunate, Li Mu's face was ugly. He knew in his heart that the imperial edict was most likely to persuade him to surrender.
That was not the intention of King Zhao, but most likely the intention of the Qin army. At this time, the only option was to do extraordinary things. For the sake of Zhao, there was no harm in risking death.
…
"Ying Shuai, the envoy has lost news, and there is no news about Lingshou..." Tie Ying walked into the Zhao palace and said to Ying Gao.
"Imprisoned!"
Meng Tian and Wang Jian looked at each other and couldn't help but turn to Ying Gao and said, "It seems that Li Mu is determined to fight against our army. Ying Shuai, how is our army doing now?"
"Send an envoy to contact Li Mu in the name of our army and ask Li Mu to surrender. Otherwise, I will massacre the entire Handan, wipe out King Zhao's lineage, and completely annex the Kingdom of Zhao!"
Ying Gao turned around, smiled at Wang Jian and others, and said: "Our army is asking for a lot of money. It depends on how Li Mu will pay back the money. In fact, what Li Mu doesn't know, I really dare to kill the king!"
"Teacher, two generals, I wonder who the three of you are going to Lingshou as envoys to recruit Li Mu to surrender?"
"Let Feng Quji go!"
Wang Jian was silent for a while, and then said word by word to Ying Gao: "In this battle, Feng Quji's troops suffered heavy losses. If they had gained the merits of the envoy this time..."
"good!"
Ying Gao nodded, and said to Tie Ying: "Pass my order, use Feng Quji as the envoy, go to Lingshou to recruit Li Mu, and tell him not to lose the dignity of our great Qin."
"promise."
Ying Gao understood what Wang Jian meant. If the credit for conquering Handan was concentrated on one person, he could indeed be granted a title. However, this time almost all of the Qin army moved.
Since they can't be made princes, spreading them out won't have much impact. What's more, all the generals under Ying Gao's command have made great achievements in this battle.
Eat meat for yourself and let others drink soup. Only in this way is the long-term solution.
