After experiencing the incident of becoming a palace minister, Lu Yan's original good mood disappeared. He calmly continued to walk into the palace to discuss with Ying Zheng to start the war to destroy Wei.
Zhao Gao received the report and whispered in the ear of Ying Zheng who was handling government affairs: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Master has arrived."
Ying Zheng raised his head, squinted his eyes and moistened them, as if his eyes were tired from dealing with government affairs for too long. He put down the pen in his hand and said, "Invite him in."
Soon, Lu Yan walked into the hall and raised his hands, "Your Majesty."
"Sir, first he went to the Kingdom of Zhao, and then to Yunmengze. When he came back, he immediately went to look for his beloved wife. Why didn't he take a break for a few days? What's so important about entering the palace today~"
Lu Yan further said: "Your Majesty, the State of Yan was defeated by Zhao in a battle and its capital was destroyed. Its elite troops were greatly damaged, and Yan Mo was almost destroyed. The State of Chu claimed to have millions of soldiers, but after a civil strife, only the Tenglong Army was left. It is time to attack and destroy the remaining state.
I also took back the Kingdom of Wei and the territory of Han that I had governed for five years from the Kingdom of Chu. All the three Jin states surrendered, and the remaining Yan, Qi, and Chu could only be destroyed with a single hand."
Ying Zheng stood up, walked two steps to the map of the world erected next to him, pointed with his hand and said: "Sir, it is your wish to send troops to attack Wei at this time, and take advantage of the trend to go south to capture Han. Then most of the world is in hand, and unification is in sight."
"Exactly."
"I also have this intention. The Zhao Kingdom has not yet stabilized, and it cannot be suppressed except by the old general Wang Jian. I want Wang Ben to lead the army from the south of the Zhao Kingdom to attack Wei's capital Daliang. At the same time, the Mengwu of the Lantian Camp opened up their momentum to intimidate Fu Chu.
Cut off the idea of helping Chu."
"Your Majesty is wise. He has no time to take care of himself, and combined with the intimidation of General Mengwu, Chu will not dare to intervene in Wei's war."
"Too busy with yourself?" Ying Zheng didn't respond.
Lu Yan reminded him, "The Yue rebellion in the south is becoming more and more serious, but the Chu army has no way to completely annihilate it."
"Sun Tzu said: There are five dangers in a general: death can be killed, life can be captured, anger can be insulted, integrity can be humiliated, and love for the people can be annoying. Any of these five dangers can be caused by overstepping the limit, which can lead to disasters caused by military use.
In the Battle of Zhaoguan, as long as Nan Yan, the leader of Baiyue, had any of the above shortcomings, the Yue army would be completely destroyed in the hands of Long Zhan. I have to admire her, she is indeed an amazing woman."
After Ying Zheng sighed for a while, he suddenly remembered something. He stared at the map for a long time and said: "When the three Jins surrender, the land can be swallowed up by whales, but the people's hearts are hard to conquer. In particular, our domestic schools have only been built not long ago, and the governance talents will never be able to satisfy Zhao.
The needs of Wei and Han. Korea was destroyed by Chu six years ago, and many of its old nobles were eliminated by Chu clans, so it should be treated as a priority.
Completely controlling Han will be like a sharp knife hitting the heart of the Chu Kingdom. I want to help Baiyue recover, but I will teach Cu Cu to never have peace. This will eliminate the possibility of the development of the Chu Kingdom during my next five years of talent training."
Tsk tsk, you’ve already said it, what else can I say?
Lu Yan was a little helpless.
When the Qin State's national power could be pushed aside, Ying Zheng chose to secure his hand after destroying the three Jin Dynasties, and waited for the domestic talent training to bear fruit before launching a unified plan. This was almost exactly what he thought in his heart.
Helping Baiyue to regain its kingdom was beyond his expectation. The First Emperor wanted to unify the world, so he actually took the initiative to help Baiyue to regain his kingdom. Even if it was for the sake of cholera in Chu, it didn't seem to make sense...
Could it be...that's how it should be?
After Lu Yan thought for a moment, he roughly understood the intention behind it. First, the war between Chu and Yue consumed the strength and potential of the two countries; second, the reconstruction of the Yue Kingdom was bound to attract many Yue people in the south from the deep mountains and old forests to collect more
The intelligence of the Yue people; thirdly, in the future, it is more feasible to conquer a Yue country than to conquer a scattered Baiyue country.
Alas, Yan Lingji, please wish yourself well.
Seeing that Lu Yan didn't reply, Ying Zheng asked proactively: "Sir, do you have anything to add?"
Lu Yan showed an expression of admiration, "My words are clumsy, but your plan is very clever."
"Okay. I will now order Wang Ben and Meng Wu."
…
Qin Wang Jian, Wang Ben, Yang Duan and an army of 400,000 people attacked and destroyed the Zhao State. Then Wang Ben led his army southward and attacked Daliang, the capital of Wei State, with great potential to destroy Wei in one fell swoop.
When the news spread, all forces were shocked, but behaved very calmly.
Yan State, Jicheng
Since the palace was burned down by Le Cheng, King Yan didn't even have a palace at the moment. He just picked a barely decent mansion in the city as his palace.
Ju Wu hurriedly came to report the news: "Your Majesty, the State of Qin has sent troops again. Wang Jian will stay in Zhao, and Wang Ben will lead the troops to attack the State of Wei. The State of Wei is afraid..."
"Another country is destroyed..." Yan Dan sighed sadly, his fists clenched purple: Ying Zheng, just because of your ambition, the people of the world are in dire straits! Back in Handan, I shouldn't have saved you, I should have killed you!
Ju Wu added: "Your Majesty, based on the combat effectiveness of the Qin army in destroying Zhao, as well as the strength of Yan, Wei, Qi, and Chu at this time, I am afraid that Qin will be able to unify the world by destroying all other countries in one battle."
"What?!" Yan Dan lost his composure, but he immediately realized that Yan and Wei were like disabled people. Chu State was a normal person, but it was a pity that he had just been disabled. Qi State~forget it, he was mentally retarded. Qin State is going to do it now
Dominate the world?!
No! There must be a chance. Ying Zheng, there is a place in Handan that you will definitely go to, and that is your burial place.
He closed his eyes to calm down the excitement in his heart and said: "In the battle of Wei State, our Yan State does not have the strength to intervene, so let's leave it like this. Teacher, I am tired."
Ju Wu lamented silently, bowed and retreated, "Your Majesty, please take care of yourself. I retire."
Chu State, Shouchun
"Your Majesty, the Qin State's ambitions are clearly exposed, and we must not sit back and watch the Wei State be destroyed. Once the Wei State is destroyed, the Han Dynasty will not be protected. Our Chu State has lost a large grain production area. How will we compete with the Qin State for supremacy in the future?!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, Qin has destroyed half of the world with Zhao. Sooner or later, Qin and Chu will have a war. At this time, we should save Wei."
The new king looked at the clan members who were actively giving suggestions, with an indifferent expression on his face, and handed the matter over to others, "Lord Ling Yin, what's your opinion?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The new commander of Chu State is Tian Guang, who has made great achievements in turning things around.
Tian Guang said calmly with everyone's eyes on him: "Qin's Lantian camp is about to move. It is King Qin who is warning me that Chu will be struck by thunder if I dare to intervene. If I save Wei and fight with Qin, Baiyue will be behind me."
It is bound to become rampant again and become even more uncontrollable.
However, the Qin State is extremely ambitious and must be guarded against. Han Land still needs to send additional soldiers and horses to garrison, especially Nanyang Land, which is the top priority."
Not saving Wei will prevent the Baiyue people from stealing their homes again; garrisoning Han will prevent the Qin State from being greedy. Whether it is the clans whose hometown in the southeast is threatened by Baiyue or the clans who are threatened by Qin in the west, everyone is satisfied with this decision. Tian Guang
With one hand and mud, the matter has been decided.
Fu Chu praised with satisfaction: "Your Majesty Yin's words have won the hearts of many people. If Qin destroys Wei, I, the State of Chu, will not interfere."
"The king is wise."
Afterwards, Fu Chu left Tian Guang alone and asked, "If Qin really attacks Han, can I defend it with my current strength?"
Tian Guang answered honestly: "If the Qin army just follows the trend, it can be defended; if the King of Qin insists on attacking, it cannot be defended."
"Qin and Chu are fighting, and Han must not lose. Do you have any idea?"
Zhen Chu stared at Tian Guang with a pair of sharp eyes. The latter came slightly closer and whispered, "Does your Majesty still remember Lord Changping?"
"Huh? What does this have to do with him?"
"I have evidence that he betrayed Qin's interests. If Qin really wants to go to war, he is an excellent chess piece to win."
Back then, Lord Changping could manipulate Tian Guang at will, but now Tian Guang can threaten Lord Changping. The world is so strange.
Holding his crotch and stroking his palms, he laughed and said, "Miao Miao, sir, your wisdom is indeed far-reaching."
