Chapter 118 The King of Qin issued an edict! Raising an army to destroy Zhao! Explanation in the ancestral land!
"The princes are at peace."
With a wave of his hand, Ying Zheng exuded infinite majesty.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." All the ministers shouted in unison.
"If you have the foundation to play, you will retreat from the court without the foundation."
Zhao Gao, who was serving on the side, shouted loudly.
When Ying Zheng returned to Qin, Zhao Gao served as a eunuch in the Heir's Mansion, then the Crown Prince's Mansion, and then to King Cheng. Zhao Gao was always by his side.
Now Zhao Gao is also the Minister of the Royal Chariots in the palace, in charge of the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace.
This is the pinnacle of being a eunuch.
"Start the memorial, Your Majesty."
"now."
“The autumn harvest has just passed.”
"Guanzhong and Bashu have a great harvest."
"In addition, the other counties and cities of our Great Qin also ushered in a good harvest."
"My Great Qin granary and national treasury are extremely full."
"It is enough for our great Qin army of one million to conquer for three years." Lu Buwei stood up and spoke loudly.
“The whole country has a good harvest.”
"God bless the Qin Dynasty."
Ying Zheng spread his hands and laughed.
This statement is not wrong.
Under the will of heaven, the Qin Dynasty will unify the world.
It can be said that under this destiny, the Qin Dynasty will have good weather and good harvests.
"Father Zhong."
"How much old grain is there in the granary?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Return to the king."
"The Chen Valley is enough to support my Qin army of one million for a year." Lu Buwei replied immediately.
As the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty, he was very clear about these numbers.
"Qi is short of food."
"Although Yan State has the Du Kang area, it is still not enough for the whole country."
"Sell these grains to Yan and Qi."
"It can be traded with copper, iron, elixirs, money, etc."
"This matter will be handled by Zhongfu."
"Anyway."
"These old valleys cannot flow into the lands of Zhao and Wei." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty."
"I will see to it." Lu Buwei responded immediately.
"Young Master."
"Are there any movements in the countries of the world now?" Ying Zheng looked at Wei Liao again.
"Start the memorial, Your Majesty."
"There have been constant frictions between Zhao and Yan on the border, and they have fought each other, but both sides have exercised restraint."
"Now that Zhao has lost a Grand Master, its national strength has been greatly damaged. Yan also has two Grand Masters, so they are already able to hold their own."
"And the Chu State is still ruled by Huang Xie, who has great power in the government and the country."
"As for Zhao and Wei, they have strengthened their alliance and set up defenses on the borders with our Great Qin to prevent attacks from our Great Qin." Wei Liao spoke up.
"Zhao Yan."
"Now I'm scared." Ying Zheng smiled faintly. He didn't care about the defense of the Zhao-Wei alliance at all.
"Your Majesty."
"Now our Great Qin has strong soldiers and horses, abundant food and grass, and sufficient military equipment."
"In the past, the four kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, Han and Chu invaded our Great Qin. Although Han was destroyed, the hatred between the remaining three kingdoms has not been resolved."
"I request your permission to attack Zhao."
Wang Jian stood up and asked loudly.
"Why should we attack Zhao first instead of Wei?" Ying Zheng looked at Wang Jian and smiled slightly.
"Report to the king."
"There are two reasons for attacking Zhao."
"First, the four countries that invaded Qin in the past were led by Zhao, so Zhao was the main offender."
“Secondly, Zhao is the strongest among the Three Jins. If Zhao attacks Wei first, Zhao will be able to support Wei with ease. On the contrary, if our Great Qin attacks Zhao first and then sends a strong army to harass Wei, Wei will never dare to give its all to support Zhao.” Wang Jian said loudly.
"General Wang Jian's words make sense."
"I also agree that we should first destroy Zhao and then Wei." Wei Liao also echoed loudly.
"I second the proposal."
The ministers said in unison.
"The four great camps of our Great Qin."
"The Great Wall of Northern Frontier Town."
"Hangu Town, Hangu."
"Lishan guards Lishan."
"Yongcheng Town, Yongcheng."
"This expedition."
“We must treat it with caution.”
"As for Wei, especially Wei, I am prepared to attack Wei with a large battalion of forces."
"As for the State of Zhao, I am prepared to send two large camps."
"Destroy them in one battle." Ying Zheng raised his head and looked down at the court.
Today, the Qin Empire has sufficient military equipment and food supplies. The three major camps have more than one million troops, including the logistics troops. The Qin Empire is fully capable of supplying them.
"Your Majesty."
"Are we going to attack Wei with a large battalion?"
"Not holding you back?"
Huan Yi asked tentatively.
"Using attack as a means of delaying will have a greater effect."
"Could it be that our Great Qin is afraid of the Wei Kingdom?"
"We can use one large camp to hold back the entire State of Wei and prevent it from coming to the aid of the State of Zhao. This is a good opportunity."
"Of course, in this battle, the key for my Great Qin is to destroy Zhao." Ying Zheng said slowly, his words full of dominance.
Now, it is only half a year away from the destruction of Han, but the national strength of Qin has fully recovered.
"Wang Jian."
"Huan Yi."
Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.
"The minister is here."
The two generals immediately responded and stood up.
"The two camps at Mount Li and Hangu will all be dispatched to attack Zhao from two fronts."
"On the one hand, we will go east through Hangu Pass and attack Zhao's Jingyang."
"On the one hand, they will march out from Mount Li and attack Anyi of Zhao."
"The attack of the two camps will be commanded by the two generals. If you need help, the two generals can send a message with blood talismans."
"On the battlefield, I will not interfere with any troop deployment strategies. Everything depends on the battlefield." Ying Zheng said majestically.
He has been king for many years.
Ying Zheng naturally knew when to make arrangements and when not to make arrangements.
He followed his teacher's teachings and deeply understood that one should trust people when employing them, and should not employ people if he is not sure about them.
If it was just like the Battle of Changping in the past, when Bai Qi and Lian Po fought well, but the King of Zhao recalled Lian Po and replaced him with a newly promoted grandmaster Zhao Kuo, they were eventually defeated. If the king had not overstepped his authority and taken over the battlefield command, perhaps the result would have been different.
"Wang He." Ying Zheng said majestically.
"The minister is here."
Wang He also stood up immediately.
"Although Wei's national strength is not as good as Zhao's, the country's total military strength exceeds 700,000."
"Although not everyone wears armor, Wei still has two great masters, and its national strength is stronger than Han."
"I want you to attack Wei, but you must be moderate in your efforts. Destroying Wei is not the goal of the Yongcheng camp, but delaying Wei." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.
"I understand." Wang He said immediately.
"Give the tiger talisman."
Ying Zheng waved his hand.
Zhao Gao immediately picked up a box.
Inside the box were three tiger talismans.
When the general mobilizes troops, the army must recognize the tiger talisman, and without the tiger talisman, the army cannot be mobilized.
As Zhao Gao walked into the hall, he gave the tiger talismans to them one by one.
The three generals held up the tiger talisman and bowed respectfully: "We swear to be loyal to the king until death. We will unify the world for the king and destroy the enemy countries."
"Father Zhong."
"Shaofu, the Internal History of Grain Administration."
"Allocation of food and fodder is the basis of the march."
"I don't want to make any mistakes in this matter." Ying Zheng said very seriously.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty."
"No food or supplies will be lost," Lu Buwei and other important officials including Wei Liao said immediately.
"Start the memorial, Your Majesty."
"Now that the army is about to move, I wonder whether the fourth main camp in Mount Li needs to be transferred?" Wang Jian asked respectfully.
"The fourth main camp of Mount Li?"
Ying Zheng looked somewhat thoughtful.
A moment later.
"The fourth main camp will be temporarily stationed in Handi for garrison."
"General, there is no need to worry about it." Ying Zheng said slowly.
"I understand." Wang Jian immediately accepted the order.
Everything has been explained.
Ying Zheng looked down at the court and said, "After our ancestors founded the Qin Dynasty, their wish to unify the country eastward has been passed down through the ages. I, Ying Zheng, swear to inherit the wish of our ancestors and the wishes of our ancestors and kings of all generations."
"My Lords, are you willing to go with me?"
"To create this great cause of unification?"
Hear this.
All the civil and military officials in the court raised their imperial tablets and said with a firm face: "We swear to follow the king until death."
"Dismiss the dynasty."
"Get ready to go."
Ying Zheng waved his hand.
He turned and left the Dachao Palace and returned to the Zhangtai Palace.
"Farewell, Your Majesty." The ministers shouted and watched Ying Zheng leave the Dachao Palace.
"Your generals."
"The vision of unification will be achieved during the reign of Your Majesty."
"Let's all encourage each other."
Lu Buwei walked up to the generals and said with a serious face.
"For the unification of the Qin Dynasty, let us work together."
All the generals spoke in unison, each of them revealing a look of determination.
Inside Zhangtai Palace!
The apse!
Look at this huge sandbox.
There was a hint of coldness in Ying Zheng's eyes.
"Zhao Guo."
"Finally, today has arrived."
"You have humiliated me endlessly in the past. If it weren't for your redemption, I wouldn't be alive today."
"New and old grudges are settled today."
Ying Zheng stared at the location of Handan on the sand table.
Followed.
The sword tip raised.
The Zhao flag on Handan City was directly picked up and flew away by Ying Zheng.
"Your Majesty."
"What's the decree?"
Dun Ruo came to the back hall and bowed.
"I have already ordered an attack on Zhao."
"Wei, I sent a large camp to hold them back so that Wei would not have enough troops to reinforce Zhao."
"But we still have to guard against the State of Chu."
"I need the power of the Black Ice Platform to cause civil unrest in Chu." Ying Zheng turned around and said to Dun Ruo.
"If you want to cause chaos in the State of Chu, there is only one way."
"Huang Xie is dead."
"The State of Chu will surely be in chaos." Dun Ruo said immediately.
"What are you waiting for?"
Ying Zheng glanced at him and said coldly.
"I accept the edict."
Dun Ruo bowed and immediately left the back hall.
"Everything is ready."
"Just waiting for the army to attack."
"Teacher, I will do my best to unify the world." Ying Zheng murmured to himself.
Subsequently.
"The fourth main camp of Mount Li in Han, Zhao Feng."
"This large army has been replenished. Perhaps we can use it as a surprise force."
"This special force is in the dark. It guards Han territory openly, and can launch a surprise attack on Zhao in secret, and achieve extraordinary success."
Ying Zheng thought of the fourth main camp in Mount Li that Wang Jian had mentioned in the court before, and his mind moved.
He immediately turned around and returned to the main hall of Zhangtai Palace.
Then he picked up a blank piece of silk book and wrote a sentence.
"Ren Xiao."
"Send the blood talisman to the commander of the fourth main camp of Mount Li, General Zhao Feng."
Ying Zheng picked up the silk book in his hand and spoke to the outside of the hall.
"I obey your order." Ren Xiong accepted the order respectfully.
……
Inside the main hall of the ancestral temple!
"Ying Xi, why are you entering the ancestral land again?" Seeing Ying Xi walking out of the hall and about to enter the ancestral land, many souls of Qin kings appeared from the spirit tablets and looked at him curiously.
"The king has issued an edict to send troops to destroy Zhao."
"I will go to the ancestral land to report to the ancestor." Ying Xi replied with a smile.
"It's only been half a year, and Zheng'er has started another offensive."
"Now the national strength of our Great Qin has reached an unimaginable level." The Duke of Qin said with emotion.
"Ancestors."
"After all, we have the accumulation of our successive Qin kings, and Zheng'er is just exerting the national strength now."
"A million elite soldiers, a million armored men, sufficient armaments, and sufficient food and grass. Only our Great Qin can do this." Ying Si said with a smile.
"Zheng'er is 28 years old this year. With the speed at which he advances and destroys countries this time, perhaps he can unify the world before he turns 40." Yingji said with emotion.
"Do not."
Marquis Qin shook his head, with a look of certainty in his eyes: "Zheng'er doesn't need to be forty years old. Perhaps in these six or seven years, our Great Qin will have a chance to unify."
"Why is the ancestor so sure?"
"There are still five countries left today, with vast territories. Perhaps they are not so easy to be destroyed." Yingji said in surprise.
"Now the ancestor has given Zheng'er great favors, even granting him the baptism of the ancestral temple. The number of grandmasters in the Qin Dynasty has also increased."
"Which country can compare with our Great Qin?"
"In the past, Ji'er, you had to compete with Zhao State in terms of secular national strength during the Battle of Changping, and finally caused Zhao State to suffer heavy losses. But now the national strength of our Great Qin is not comparable to that of the past. Even if the strength of other countries increases, they may not be able to compare with our Great Qin."
"As for the Grand Master, there is no need to say more."
"Our Great Qin has added so many great masters this time, and this battle will be enough to show them all." Marquis Qin said with a smile, full of confidence.
"If the whole world can be unified within six or seven years, then there is no need to hide our ancestral land any more."
"The great plan of the First Ancestor has been implemented by all the generals."
"As the ancestor said, the destiny is with Qin. It seems that heaven wants me to unify the world."
"Unifying the world, gathering the good fortune, I wonder what it will be like?"
……
Many Qin kings laughed and were full of expectations for the future unified Qin.
After Ying Xi said this.
Entered the ancestral land.
In the ancestral land.
as always.
After Qin Ying planted the second high-level spiritual vein, the spiritual energy of the entire ancestral land surged.
If Shushan is the most important immortal gate in Shenzhou, then the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the ancestral land is no weaker than that of Shushan.
"Stop."
As soon as Ying Xi arrived at the ancestral hall, the two disciples who were guarding the hall immediately stopped him.
"Has the ancestor not come out yet?" Ying Xi asked immediately, looking at the tightly closed palace door.
“Not out yet.”
"What do you want?" asked the disciple on guard.
"The king has issued an edict to raise troops again. As the ancestor said in the past, all worldly affairs must be reported to the ancestor." Ying Xi replied.
"The ancestor is still in seclusion. We will report to him after he comes out." said a disciple on guard.
"In that case, thank you for your trouble." Ying Xi thanked him and prepared to leave.
This time!
A voice was heard from inside the hall.
"Let's go into the palace."
It was not Qin Ying's voice, but Yue Yao's voice.
"It's the voice of the First Grandmother."
The disciples guarding the garrison looked respectful.
The entire clan of the ancestral land is descended from Qin Ying and Yue Yao.
These two were the ancestors who created the ancestral land and the secular Ying clan.
Followed.
The palace door opens.
After tidying up his clothes, Ying Xi slowly walked into the hall.
into the eye.
Yueyao was standing in the hall.
"Descendant Ying Xi pays homage to the First Grandmother."
Ying Xi knelt directly in front of Yue Yao.
"No gifts."
Yueyao smiled and raised her hand.
A force directly lifted Ying Xi up.
"Thank you, Great-grandmother." Ying Xi immediately expressed his gratitude.
"What's the matter with you coming to see your ancestor?" Yue Yao asked.
"The king has issued an edict to attack the two countries of Zhao and Wei, with the goal of destroying Zhao and delaying the Wei army."
"My descendants have come here specially to report this." Ying Xi said respectfully.
"What did your ancestor say about this?" Yue Yao asked.
"When the war breaks out, the ancestor wants the souls of the powerful people in the enemy country, so he lets the descendants report it." Ying Xi said.
"So, I understand."
Yueyao nodded.
Then he mobilized his true energy and said, "When the secular war breaks out, the disciples of the ancestral land will carry out what your ancestors instructed in the past."
The sound spread.
Many disciples in the ancestral land who were collecting souls in the secular world responded one after another: "We will follow the orders of our First Grandmother."
"besides."
"Your ancestor wants his king's seal and other things, and also wants his king to be captured alive."
Yueyao thought of this again.
"Please rest assured, Grandmother. I have already informed the King of this matter."
"Just like Han, after we destroy their country, we will definitely present the royal seal and other items to the ancestral land." Ying Xi said immediately.
"kindness."
"You go back."
Yueyao said to Ying Xi.
"The descendants are leaving."
Ying Xi bowed respectfully and retreated.
"Husband."
"This Zheng'er you value is quite good."
"With him in charge of the country in the secular world, your plan can be implemented step by step." A smile appeared on Yueyao's beautiful face.
"Ugh."
"You have been in seclusion all the time."
"I'd better go into seclusion, too."
"Break through the void realm, and reach the divine realm through martial arts."
"My husband is truly a natural born martial artist. His understanding of martial arts has reached such a level."
"I will also practice hard so that I can better help my husband in the future."
Thinking.
Yue Yao's figure flashed, and as the palace door closed, she went into seclusion in the back hall.
……
Han land, Xinzheng!
In the camp.
"Drink, drink."
The sound of the sharp soldiers' training was endless.
Every day, the Qin army warriors spend most of their time practicing, and the rest of their time is spent training battle formations and strengthening their bodies.
This is also the Qin army's consistent training method.
And in the main hall of the camp.
"The peak of Grandmaster Realm."
"With the resources bestowed by my great-grandmaster, I didn't expect that I would be able to break through to the peak of Grandmaster level half a year faster than I thought."
"If I submit a petition to be baptized in the Xianyang Ancestral Temple at this moment, wouldn't that allow me to break through to the Grandmaster level?"
Think of this.
A look of anticipation appeared on Zhao Feng's face.
Grandmaster of martial arts!
The ultimate in the mortal world.
His life span increased by two hundred years.
Who doesn’t want this?
"never mind."
"We'll have to wait a while."
"Today I have just broken through to the peak of Grandmaster. I still need enough worldly solid cultivation. Otherwise, if I rashly break through to Grandmaster, my foundation will be unstable."
"My grandmaster said that if the foundation is not stable, there will be no chance for the subsequent realms. This must be remembered." Zhao Feng thought secretly, but in fact he had some plans in his mind.
at this time!
"General."
"The blood talisman secret order from Xianyang."
Zhang Han ran quickly into the hall with a blood talisman in his hand.
"From Xianyang?"
Zhao Feng's expression changed slightly and he waved his hand immediately.
Zhang Han immediately stepped forward and handed the blood talisman to Zhao Feng.
The blood talisman is opened.
A direct sentence appeared in front of Zhao Feng.
"I have issued an edict. The two main camps of Mount Li and Hangu will attack Zhao. On the surface, the fourth main camp of Mount Li will stay put and guard the land of Han! In reality, after the two main camps attack Zhao, Zhao will mobilize its troops to fight. You will lead the fourth main camp of Mount Li to secretly mobilize troops and attack Zhao from the north! It will be a surprise attack! As for the food and fodder needed by the army, I have already sent a secret edict to Meng Yi, and he will mobilize the necessary food and fodder!"
"The march will be kept secret. You can decide the day of the mobilization."
After reading the blood symbol appears.
Zhao Feng's expression immediately became serious.
"The king has issued an edict to mobilize troops to destroy Zhao." Zhao Feng said in a deep voice.
"The current strength of our Great Qin is truly unbelievable."
"It has only been half a year since we destroyed Han, and now we can send troops to destroy Zhao." Zhang Han looked excited.
Naturally, he also saw the secret order on the blood talisman.
"The power of the Qin Empire is indeed strong."
"Originally, destroying Han cost a lot of national strength, but for Qin, it doesn't seem to cost much."
"This time, they actually directly mobilized two camps."
"And maybe there are more than two camps." Zhao Feng looked serious.
"Didn't the royal secret order say that there were only two large camps?" Zhang Han looked puzzled.
"Zhao and Wei are allies."
"If my Great Qin attacks Zhao, will Wei just sit back and watch?" Zhao Feng laughed.
"General, what you mean is that the king will send a large camp to delay the State of Wei." Zhang Han immediately understood.
"good."
Zhao Feng nodded, with a thoughtful look on his face: "This time the attack on Zhao is mainly based on Mount Li and Hangu Pass. I think the camp that will hold back Wei must be the Yongcheng camp. After all, the Northern Frontier is guarding the Northern Frontier Great Wall to prevent foreign races."
"Then General, when shall we mobilize our troops?"
"This is an opportunity to make a great contribution." Zhang Han looked excited.
"Didn't you see what Wang Zhao said?"
"After the war between our Great Qin and Zhao has started, our Fourth Main Battalion will mobilize its own troops to attack Zhao as a surprise force and catch it off guard."
"This battle."
“After Zhao State is fully committed, our army can march secretly and attack Zhao State.” Zhao Feng sneered.
"Okay." Zhang Han nodded, full of anticipation.
time.
Two months passed in the blink of an eye!
The Qin army marched and mobilized troops.
Time enough.
The border of Zhao.
"attack!"
Following Wang Jian's order.
Hundreds of thousands of Qin troops rushed towards the State of Zhao with devastating power.
The Qin State started a war to destroy the Zhao State!
Start fighting!
Even though Zhao deployed heavy troops on the border, it was impossible to block the enemy completely.
Because it was not just Wang Jian who led the Lishan camp to attack.
Huan Yi also led the Hangu camp to attack.
The two large camps had a total combat force of 600,000. Such a large-scale expedition would have been almost impossible if it were not for the great power of the Qin Dynasty.
Zhao Guo, Handan!
Longtai Palace!
"Report!"
"The Qin army has launched an attack on the border of Jingyang County, and now five border cities have fallen."
"My 100,000-strong army on the border has been defeated by the Qin army."
"Report!"
"The Qin army launched an attack on our Anyi city. The Qin army attacked fiercely, and the 80,000 troops stationed in Anyi were defeated, with heavy casualties!"
"Please make your decision, Your Majesty."
In the court hall.
The two Zhao soldiers knelt on the ground in fear and reported.
"Qin State, Ying Zheng."
"How dare he?"
Zhao Yan's face instantly turned pale.
The Qin State attacked.
This was something he didn't expect.
After all, it has only been more than half a year since Qin conquered Han. How could Qin have such a strong national strength to maintain itself?
This is impossible!
But even if I didn't expect it.
He also deployed heavy troops on the border, with nearly 200,000 soldiers stationed there.
But the Qin army divided its forces to attack them.
Moreover, their troop strength far exceeds that of those stationed at the border, and they can be mobilized extremely quickly.
"Your Majesty."
"After opening up the Guanzhong Canal, the Qin army has obtained the largest granary in the world."
"Besides, Qin already has the land of Bashu, so they naturally have sufficient food and grass."
Zhao Yi stood up with a serious expression.
