Dali, one of the Jin soldiers in the left army, Wei Cao, who was supposed to be in Jiangcheng, came to Hexi in person.
In the military tent, in addition to the Jin people, there were also a large number of Wu people who were not dressed in the Jin style at all.
"At the east entrance of Nanshan, there are a lot of traces of carriages and horses along the Zhishui River. Judging from the number of buried stoves, the Qin army dispatched 20,000 sharp soldiers!"
"Twenty thousand 'Rei warriors'?"
Wei Cao brushed his beard and nodded, "Twenty thousand 'soldiers', this is most of Qin's family wealth."
While speaking, Wei Cao also looked at the few Wu people in front of him. These Wu people were dressed in extremely shabby clothes. Of course, in their own eyes, they were clean and tidy and could cover their bodies, so they were not ugly at all.
"As you have said, the Qin army is indeed striving to advance eastward."
After Wei Cao finished speaking, he added, "It's just that I have one more question."
"Wei Zi, please speak."
"You are originally from Qin, why did you destroy Qin?"
Several short-haired Wu people looked a little embarrassed, but one of them still said seriously: "This is the princess's anger."
When he heard "Princess Wrath", the Minister of Jin State was stunned. He had prepared a lot of words, but he couldn't say them right now. It was really just "Princess Wrath". If you want to say it is nonsense, it is indeed nonsense.
.
But let’s just say it’s a reason…it’s really quite sufficient.
It is difficult for an angry woman to communicate rationally.
What's more, she is still a "dead" woman.
She is also a woman whose power expands dozens or hundreds of times after she "dies".
The Che family, the son of Qin State, is a member of the clan, but now he is the dog of this "dead" woman!
Even though the Minister of Jin had a good psychological quality, he was still shocked and didn't know how to continue the conversation.
He had no choice but to maintain his aura and said calmly: "I have the remaining strength to approach Xianyang at most. If we attack Qin with all our strength, the 'smart men' of Qin will definitely return."
"I'm so lucky to have Wei Zi help me. How dare I bother you again."
After one person saluted, he still clasped his fists and bowed, "By tiring the Qin army this time, it has already dissipated the princess's anger. It is not His Highness's wish to really destroy Qin."
"Your Highness..."
Hearing this title, the Minister of Jin was stunned again, and then he remembered that Li Jie's dog was a real dog, and he actually built a Huai River Goddess Palace for a "dead" woman.
The scale is simply astonishing.
When the Jin people reported what they had seen and heard back to Jin, Wei Cao thought he was crazy for not understanding it. Of course, now it seems that this dog is indeed crazy.
So crazy!
Chu's territory in the east of Han had been basically lost.
News has come back that the guard of Datun Pass, the former Danyang Gong Douzun of Chu State, has sued for peace with the Han army on the northern front outside the pass.
It's not about talking about peace, it's about seeking peace.
It's okay if you don't ask for it. This time Dou Zun encountered too much trouble.
After the new Emperor Yin Dou came to power, in addition to a series of "losing power and humiliating the country" treaties to be fulfilled, he also cut off the supply to the front line.
The self-sustainability of the Chu army at Datun Pass is quite good, but if you have to accumulate three passes in one pass, you will be doomed.
Dou Huang made it clear that he would take advantage of this opportunity to reintegrate the Dou family.
If we don't integrate, we won't be able to do it. If we don't integrate, we will have no chance in the future, and there will be many challenges to meet.
The four Dou clans, with the demise of the "Arrow-bearing National Warrior" Doushi, have basically withdrawn from the stage of history. The Quanyi Dou clan is one of the winners behind this bloody political murder.
Dou Huang was not the mastermind behind the scenes, but he was very fat, otherwise he would not have brought out hundreds of thousands of people in one go after Yingdu was emptied. Those were not cassava and taro from the fields.
Even in the matter of his marriage to Sima Xiangba, he was suspected of transferring assets abroad.
The dowry given to the Sima family was so generous that I had never heard of it.
These days, although marriage requires marriage, the pre-marital property must be notarized. Once the couple divorces, the pre-marital property will be calculated separately.
Just a concubine, what does she count?
It's totally fine to get a divorce once you're in a man's territory.
What considerations are involved in this, Dou Huang will not tell anyone, but for Danyang Gong Dou Zun, who is from the same lineage, he has to be on guard, and even has to carefully consider what pits are buried in this.
.
Only then do you know better how sinister the old cunt among you is.
Dou Zun is a relatively pure soldier, otherwise he would not have become a piece of Chu State's supporting brick, and he would be moved wherever he needs to be.
If you eat and drink Dan Shui together, won’t it taste delicious?
It's fragrant, but Dou Zun won't do it.
After staying away from politics for a lifetime, Douzun still stepped into the pit when disaster struck.
No matter what, he will be tricked to death, and Dou Zun also knows what the rear center means, that is, Dou Huang, who is a generation behind him, wants to plot against him, and it is a public weapon for private use.
With the current self-sustainability of the Great Tunnel, there won’t be much of a problem if we continue to carry it on.
But sooner or later he would die. The Han army could even surround the Dabie Mountains, not to mention the three passes. Where could he escape to?
So normally, if you don't fight to the death, then retreat.
In order to ensure that there is no big loss, it must be withdrawn in an orderly manner.
However, the order given by the central government was very unclear. It only provided for the cessation of supply but not for retreat. Normally speaking, as the top commander of the border defense force, Douzun must do his own thing.
Or you can go up to the Central Committee and ask the Central Committee to give instructions on how and where to retreat if you want to retreat.
None of these are available, but time waits for no one, so Dou Zun can only decide for himself.
Once you make a decision, the ground will be full of pits, or cesspools!
If you withdraw, you will fear the enemy and be timid; if you withdraw slowly, you will only increase losses and be incompetent; if you withdraw quickly, you will fear the enemy like a tiger and have no courage.
If you don't retreat, you will defeat the hero and lose the bear.
Starting from the current situation, it is almost 100% like being a bear.
If Dou Zun fights to the death, he only cares about his own face and does not care about the life and death of his soldiers. If it affects the country, you deserve to die; if Dou Zun fights attrition, should the entire Dou clan army... be saved? The Dou clan cannot continue and can only be easily tolerated by Dou Emperor.
Collect, you still deserve to die.
When he found out that Dou Huang was now in charge of Yingdu, Dou Zun knew that it was his mother's turn to explain his fate.
But he didn't intend to make it easy for Dou Huang. Although he didn't know whether Dou Huang had considered his idea, Old Bones should also struggle.
The most important thing is that the soldiers who are left behind by the Dou clan still have hope of making a comeback in the future. If all these elite soldiers are wiped out, then there really will be no chance of making a comeback.
The strict discipline of the Han army was something Dou Zun saw throughout his life.
He has never seen such a powerful force since he joined the army. The opponent is so powerful. He does not expect to compete at this time. He can only leave hope to future generations. Maybe things will turn around in a few decades.
.
As for now, it's just about survival.
The news that he was suing for peace with Shang Wuji was not kept secret for long, and he chose a similar time to spread it.
It only took a few days for it to spread from Jin to Zhou and Zheng.
Since the peace talks between Chu and Han, countless horses traveling in the Central Plains have been killed.
These are all quick transmissions of news. For the Central Plains countries, the subsequent development of the Chu-Han peace talks will definitely affect their subsequent international situation.
Compared with the traditional Chu State, the new system of enfeoffing Hanzi has obvious advantages. What his predecessors could not do in decades, he could do in one or two years.
Especially after the "Hanzi Country" was officially listed on the market, its appeal to the middle and lower classes in various countries has been very, very great.
The down-and-out warriors who had no way to get ahead in the Central Plains countries could always find "official positions" in the territory of the "Hanzi Kingdom".
The entire "Hanzi Kingdom", which was the original Huaishui Bofu, was not afraid of having too many officials, but was afraid of having too few.
There is a place for wise men, and there is also a place for fools. What is needed is not omniscience and omnipotence, but only suitable tool people.
For the "Kingdom of Han" as a whole, it makes no difference whether you are a noble nobleman or an ignorant savage.
The choice here is nothing more than useful or useless.
In addition, for the warrior class, the advantage of fighting the Han army is that surrender can indeed save lives and there will be no massacre.
Fighting on the battlefield is a fight, but after the war, in order to avoid all kinds of troubles, traditional wars between two countries will involve more or less massacres.
Such as wounded soldiers, such as the tragic victory after insufficient food and feed, such as the revenge caused by the long war...
There will be massacres in these cases, and they may even be done just to save food.
But here in the Han army, they are trying to increase the survival rate as much as possible.
The Holocaust is out of the question.
It was precisely for this reason that Douzun chose to contact Shang Wuji. Although the news spread to the north, Wei Cao, the high minister of Jin, boldly speculated whether it was Douzun's plan, a delaying tactic or a false surrender.
But from the conversations with those Qin people who came to Jin and lived in Huai River for a long time, Master Wei judged that the trouble this time was really not small.
Frankly speaking, the Jin State did not want to see the "Hanzi State" grow bigger.
The timing was too bad. When the Jin State became king internally, it was clear that it wanted to be "rebellious" and leave behind the "Han Ji Liang" to go it alone.
Just such an operation would require a lot of energy to maintain internal stability, not to mention that the internal fighting among Jin's ministers was long-term and never stopped.
Without consistent external common interests, it would never have developed to this point.
The "Kingdom of Han" is now established, and its title comes from the emperor. As long as Li Jie has not said that he will imitate Wu Chu and become king directly, this matter will be very troublesome and troublesome.
If Emperor Zhou was completely shameless, he could have asked Li Jie to send troops to help him deal with all kinds of dissatisfaction.
Don't talk about "three eunuchs" and "three princes", you are the "eunuch" and "father-in-law". As long as Li Jie dares to ask for it, Emperor Zhou dares to give it to him.
Unlike King Zhou Dao, the current emperor sees clearly that he is a piece of shit, so why should he suffer to save face? He will suffer sooner or later anyway, so why not take this opportunity to feel good?
It's certain that he can't recreate the glory of his ancestors, but after he completely crippled Zheng Guo's little bitch, Emperor Zhou felt absolutely happy and felt no pressure at all.
The one who slapped Emperor Zhou the hardest in the face was never Chu.
They are already discriminating against the Chu State, why do they care whether they are slapped in the face or not? They deserve to be slapped in the face.
But the grievances and grievances of Zheng Guo are really far-reaching and difficult to describe.
In order to kill and cripple Zheng Guo, Emperor Zhou really didn't mind who would be the "overlord". As long as you have the ability, you can be Fang Bo if you want to be Fang Bo, whatever you like.
At the peak of the conflict between Jin and Chu, the main battlefield was the Zheng Kingdom. Later, due to the special trend of the times, proxy wars emerged.
But it was nothing more than Jin and Chu, each pushing Zheng or Song to cause trouble.
As for the old monster that appeared later, it was something that was unimaginable. No one thought about it, not even Jin himself.
So now, even though Wei Cao is in charge of the military soldiers and Chen Bing in Hexi, and he is ready to attack Huaigu and force Jingyang and Xianyang at any time, but if Wei Cao is really allowed to preside over a national war... he doesn't want to do it, and he doesn't dare.
It is completely uneconomical to spend a long time on Qin.
At this time, we should prevent the "State of Han" from further expansion, even if we know that this trend is inevitable.
Once Emperor Zhou invited the Han army to "rescue" him, it would be a free excuse. Before Li Jie, a dog, bites someone, he likes to hold high the banner of "righteousness".
It is even said that after so many years, as long as "loyalty and courage" are mentioned in the market, it is Li Jie and he is a "righteous man"!
All good words are used by dogs.
Master Wei's feeling is so strong.
But there is no good way. Even though they know that Li Jie's expansion is a trend, Qin still has to continue to beat him.
Who told Qin to be so close?
To maintain the title of King of Jin, how can it be done without martial arts?
Where does martial arts come from?
Fighting Rongdi is a traditional skill, and it is also a duty. Fighting is in vain, it is not a skill.
If you don’t treat people exclusively and don’t obey them, how can you show your “king’s spirit”?
This is the truth. No matter how unhappy you are, you can only attack Qin, Yan or Zhou.
But the right time, right place, right people, and the right people all have to be considered.
It’s not impossible to fight after the autumn harvest, but you can’t go on an expedition. If you attack Yan State, let alone the reason or the reason, just the weather. It may snow in one month, and it will be basically impossible to fight in two months.
, only Maodong.
Going to Yan State now is equivalent to a ski trip.
Therefore, Yan cannot fight.
To defeat the Emperor of Zhou, you can also attack Luoyi with "Wu Dao". However, it is okay to deceive yourself in this matter, but you cannot deceive outsiders. As long as the Jin State does this, the Central Plains countries can unite in order to prevent being killed.
When the time comes, it may really force Emperor Zhou to stand up.
Kick Emperor Zhou's ass, "harmony" is not in Jin's hands.
So you can't play on Sundays either.
The best choice is actually to get involved in the Wei-Zheng war and then eat a bite of fat.
But current intelligence feedback indicates that in a war between Wei and Zheng, not only Wei and Zheng were involved, but also major powers such as Qi, Lu, Chen, and Song. If they really ended up naked, they would not be able to escape for another three to five years.
To sum up, it is still the most enjoyable to beat the traditional little brother Qin Guo.
Not only the winning rate is high, but the return rate is also low.
Not only can he continue to cooperate with Li Jie, but he can also have a good chat with Che Shi, the lackey of Princess Yeyue.
Wei Cao's idea was to kill Qin's power in Jingshui, and then eat Qin's eastern trade market Xianyang in one bite.
There are no Qin lords in Xianyang City, but it is the new capital of the Qin State in name only. Internationally speaking, it does have the significance of a city.
The King of Jin's martial arts has records of destroying a large country and occupying its city.
At the same time, the biggest function of Xianyang City is the storage base. As long as the land on both sides of Xianyang City and the Wei River is occupied, it can be developed again on a large scale by using the advanced water conservancy technology of Huaishui Bofu.
In just two or three years, Wei Cao can be sure to recreate Zongzhou's Haojing.
No matter what the city looks like when the time comes, even if it is full of strange shapes and horse faces, Wei Cao calls it Haojing, it will be Haojing!
And the king in Haojing is the King of Jin!
Wei Cao did not disclose this idea at home. Internally and externally, he explained it in terms of the first battle to become king.
It was this extremely far-reaching strategy that made the Jin Shangqing obviously unhappy, but he still chose to cooperate with Princess Yeyue.
