The next day, in the Imperial Palace of Internal Affairs
Wang Jian came to the office early and ignored the civil and military officials who made various suggestions to Wang Jian, but took the initiative to hold a military meeting.
Seeing that Wang Jian finally made some movement, even Feng Quji, the inner historian, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
These days, he was also extremely anxious.
If he hadn't known about Wang Jian's method of quelling Lao'ai's rebellion, he would have almost suspected that Wang Jian was an incompetent person, a derelict and traitorous person, let alone others.
He always felt that Wang Jian had a more far-reaching plan, but although he knew some military skills, could quell local banditry, and could barely lead troops into battle, he was not up to Wang Jian's level and could not see through what Wang Jian was planning.
But his brother Feng Jie suddenly appeared next to Wang Jian, confirming that Wang Jian indeed had many plans.
Two months ago, Feng Jie disappeared. He said there were bandits causing trouble and he went out to quell the bandit troubles, but there was no news at all.
It seems that he knows something inside.
"Everyone, you must be full of resentment towards me these days, right?"
Wang Jian, who always looked majestic and solemn, rarely showed a gentle smile, but few people responded. This shows how many people were dissatisfied with Wang Jian's mediocrity during this period.
"However, I want to tell you today that these are just plans by the king, the prime minister, the generals, and me to allow the coalition forces to invade the inner history." Wang Jian's smile instantly faded, "Long before the coalition troops sent out troops, The guards have already learned through the net the generals and strength of the armies of various countries, and even their strategic policies."
Wang Jian's words made everyone scream in surprise.
Most people did not question Wang Jian's words, because he brought Ying Zheng, Lu Buwei, Wang Yan, Meng Ao, Hegong and Zhang Ji all in at once. Unless Wang Jian didn't want to mess around in the Qin State, he would never dare to use it. in their name.
But there are also a small number of people who are worried about what they should do if Wang Jian really joins the Allied Forces and deliberately deceives them?
"I can testify."
Behind the crowd, an old voice suddenly came out. Everyone turned their heads and looked, and it turned out to be Mr. He who had arrived at some unknown time.
"General!"
"Meet the General!"
Duke Heng waved his hand and said with a displeased look on his face: "This time I come as the general of the Lishan camp, not as the general of the Qin Dynasty."
"I am the commander of Lishan Camp, General Hegong. I am following the king's orders and waiting to be dispatched by the internal history officer."
With the testimony of Duke He, a veteran who had fought for Qin on the battlefield for decades, no one doubted Wang Jian's words.
Moreover, some of the other camp commanders present were somewhat dissatisfied with Wang Jian, but Duke Jian was willing to obey his orders. What else could they do?
Wang Jian cast a grateful look at Duke He. With Duke He suppressing these thorns in the army for him, he had a 90% chance of winning this battle.
Wang Jian pointed to the map hanging on the wall and pointed at Liyi and said: "The Zhao army and the Chu army have already surrounded Liyi. My plan is to let them capture Liyi and encircle them here!"
On the map, the place Wang Jian pointed to was called Qicheng.
"General, think twice. Qicheng is the last line of defense outside Xianyang City! If there is a mistake, Zhiyang Palace is near Qicheng. If it is burned down by the enemy, how should the king blame it?"
"That's right, Wucheng is only seventy miles away from Xianyang Palace. If a random army attacks, it will offend all the queen mothers! General, there is no outer city in Xianyang!"
"And we don't have enough troops. We only have 50,000 Xianyang garrison troops. Even if we add several large camps such as Lishan Camp, the number of troops is only 150,000. It is difficult to hold on, so how can we talk about encirclement?"
Seeing everyone's objections, Wang Jian did not get angry. Instead, he looked sideways at Nei Shiwei Feng Jie and motioned for him to speak.
"Everyone, I, following the orders of the Internal Affairs Bureau, mobilized county troops from various counties in the Internal Affairs Bureau two months ago. These county troops did not go to the front line of Hangu Pass, but practiced secretly in Yongcheng."
Feng Jie raised his eyebrows like a childlike child at his brother Feng Quji, who had always been calm but was a bit stunned at the moment: "Now the 60,000 county soldiers are no less than soldiers. They arrived at the Lishan Camp last night."
Who would have thought that those county soldiers transferred from various counties in the land of internal history claimed that the war at Hangu Pass was serious and were transferred to the front line. In fact, during this period of time, Feng Jie, who was the captain of internal history, had been secretly training in Yongcheng.
Wang Jian looked at everyone's stunned expressions and let out a harsh sigh.
Anyone would be in a good mood after being impeached by a group of civil and military officials for half a month. The impeachment memorials would be piled up on Zhao Ji's desk. What's more, they would impeach him for collaborating with the enemy and treason.
Moreover, Qin's layout was much more than that, but Wang Jian did not explain it.
He told everyone part of his plan, already to stabilize the morale of the army and not to hinder his subsequent encirclement plan.
Although he is unwilling to doubt his colleagues and subordinates, who knows if there may be hidden secrets among them?
At that time, Su Qin single-handedly refreshed the world's three views on human beings, so much so that for a while kings of all countries began to wonder whether their favorite ministers and important ministers who were not nationals of their own country were foreigners of other countries. Since then, Countries are somewhat resistant to talented people from other countries. Qi State has completely closed itself off and no longer accepts foreign scholars.
If you don't plan things secretly, you will be burdened.
Wang Jian wanted to eliminate all possibilities that might lead to the failure of this battle.
At this moment, Pang Nuan, who had just conquered Liyi, was filled with joy.
Only Wucheng is left in front of them. As long as they capture Wucheng, they can march into Xianyang and conquer the capital of Qin!
Conquering the capital of a country, in this era where only the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period are left except the Wei Kingdom, can be said to be the achievement that military strategists most desire to achieve.
For example, in the past, Kuangzhang conquered Jicheng, the capital of Yan, Leyi conquered Linzi, the capital of Qi, and Bai Qi conquered Yingcheng, the capital of Chu... It is enviable.
Pang Nuan naturally hopes to achieve such an achievement, especially since the country he wants to conquer is Xianyang, the capital of Qin.
For thousands of years, very few people have conquered Hangu Pass. If he conquers Xianyang, he will be truly famous and famous throughout the ages.
And just when Pang Nuan was preparing to mobilize his troops to attack Wucheng, there were also people who were as happy as Pang Nuan and were preparing to march.
And this is also an old general who is very old.
"Meng Wu, Meng Tian, gather troops and horses quickly!"
Meng Ao, whose beard and hair were all white, burst out with a vigor that was not at all his age. Military orders were conveyed to various departments under his brush, but he did not feel tired at all, but became more energetic.
His Lantian camp never went south.
The Qin army on the southern front had actually reached a secret peace agreement with the Chu army nobles on the southern front. The Chu army falsely claimed that Qin's Lantian Camp had 200,000 troops stationed in Nanyang and did not dare to advance. Therefore, the King of Chu finally sent an additional 100,000 troops. People assisted the Chu army on the southern front.
In fact, the remaining 200,000 troops in Lantian Camp were just dormant in the Zhushan area, waiting for Pang Nuan to continue deep into the hinterland of Qin.
"Jiejie, last time I was attacked by the coalition forces, this time it's my turn to take revenge!"
Meng Ao looked at the location of Fucheng on the map and showed a bloodthirsty smile.
