In the palace of Qin, Fusu knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the king of Qin.
"Father, Lord Changping has been very loyal to our Qin State. He has served as prime minister for nearly ten years. He has been working hard and dare not slack off. Now there must be a reason for the rebellion. Please give me a favor..."
"The reason? The reason!"
Qin Wangzheng suddenly roared and interrupted Fusu's words.
He stood up from the couch, raised his sword eyebrows, and scolded: "Xiong Qi is the son of the Chu State, and his body is filled with the blood of the Chu people. He is the brother of the King of Chu! This is why you want Fusu." , This is why Xiong Qi betrayed me and Qin!"
The more Qin Wangzheng talked, the angrier he became. Finally, he walked straight off the emperor's couch, came to the palace, and approached Fusu's side.
Fusu raised his head and gritted his teeth and said: "Father, although Lord Changping is of the bloodline of the King of Chu, he has never returned to the Chu Kingdom. His current betrayal may have been provoked by others and was not his intention. There is also Lord Changwen who lives in Xianyang. His guilt has nothing to do with what happened on the front line, so it would be unreasonable for my father to detain him to express his anger..."
Fusu was halfway through speaking and didn't dare to say any more.
Although Qin Wangzheng did not interrupt him with any words at this moment, the eyes staring at Fusu were already burning with anger.
The sharp eyes and almost twisted expression were enough to show how far this monarch's anger had reached.
It looks like an angry beast that chooses people to devour.
This was an expression Fusu had never seen before.
Even though he had a tense relationship with Qin Wangzheng and his son in recent years, and was often scolded by him for contradicting him, he had never seen his father so angry.
Qin Wangzheng stared at Fusu who was kneeling in front of him.
Suddenly, he seemed to see that the young man in front of him was no longer his Qin Wangzheng's son Fusu.
But he is a Chu man who wears a high crown and Chu clothes, and his speech and behavior are not worthy of himself.
Qin skin and Chu bones.
Nothing more than that.
It turned out that during the years he had been busy annexing the world, his son had already been corrupted by those Chu people into this state, which was far worse than he had imagined before.
"go out."
An indifferent voice sounded.
Fusu trembled, this tone frightened him even more than Qin Wangzheng's angry look just now.
"only."
Fusu responded in a low voice and stepped back.
When he retreated to the palace gate and was about to turn around and leave.
Qin Wangzheng's voice sounded behind him.
"Tell Yinman and your mother that from now on, Chu's voice will not be heard or Chu's clothes will be seen in the palace."
"Until...Xiong Qi dies and the Chu Kingdom is destroyed."
Fusu's legs were trembling, and in the end he didn't dare to turn around to argue, so he could only respond weakly.
After Fusu left, only a lonely king was left standing in the palace.
"Betrayal... betrayal again..."
Qin Wangzheng murmured, his angry expression gradually subsided, but there was a kind of sadness on his face.
If he just defeated Chu, he would be angry, annoyed, and blame himself for trusting Li Xin and underestimating Chu.
But after all, I won't be so angry, let alone feel the pain in my heart.
Compared with the defeat, what really made Qin Wangzheng feel angry and sad was the betrayal from Lord Changping.
"I am of the bloodline of the King of Qin, but I was born in the Kingdom of Zhao."
"When he was two years old, he was abandoned by his father and almost died at the hands of Zhao people."
….
"I returned to Qin at the age of nine. I thought my father would love me and my mother would love me from now on. Who knows, my father died. My mother wanted to be a prostitute, not me."
"Lu Buwei suppressed me, my own brother betrayed me."
Qin Wangzheng trembled.
Father, father-in-law, mother, younger brother...
Now, it was finally the turn of the man who had assisted him for ten years, helped him govern the Qin State, put down the Laodu Rebellion, and brought down Lu Buwei together, and whom he trusted immensely.
"Xiong Qi... I didn't expect it was you."
Qin Wangzheng squinted his eyes.
He remembered that at the celebration banquet after returning from conquering Yan, Xiong Qi offered a strategy to divide and disintegrate the Chu people, and asked for orders to personally go to Chen Ying, the newly conquered state of Chu.
Qin Wangzheng had hesitated. After all, Xiong Qi's identity was very sensitive.
But in the end he chose to trust him, because Qin Wangzheng believed that Xiong Qi, a man who was more like an elder brother than his uncle, would not betray him.
Who would have thought that this would be the result in the end.
Is there anyone in this world who is worthy of his Qin Wangzheng's trust?
"Zhao Gao."
Qin Wangzheng spoke.
Soon, Zhao Gao, the official of the CRRC Mansion, walked in from outside the palace. He knew that the king was in a bad mood recently, so he walked cautiously for fear of angering the king.
"Draft an imperial edict for me, and charge Chang Wenjun with death for treason."
"Order Tingwei to conduct a thorough investigation of all the people who have close contacts with Lord Changwen and Lord Changping. Anyone who is related to the attack on Chu will be punished."
Zhao Gao shivered.
The political speech of the King of Qin was very bland, but he ordered the death of a monarch in a few words. Just hearing it was frightening, let alone the need to thoroughly investigate the people Changwenjun and Changpingjun were interacting with.
At this time, the Qin State does not know how many people will die, and they do not know how many people will become prisoners of ministers.
But Qin Wangzheng didn't care. He didn't even want to know whether Chang Wenjun was involved in Xiong Qi's rebellion.
In short, he wanted to kill someone.
Zhao Gao didn't dare to say anything and hurriedly handed over his hand to accept the promise.
The next moment, Qin Wangzheng's words made him even more frightened.
"Preparing a car for me, I want to go to Pinyang in person."
After saying that, Qin Wangzheng raised his head and looked outside the palace, his face regained its calmness.
But the anger in his heart not only did not extinguish, but burned to the extreme.
The king's wrath is invisible.
When angry, millions of corpses will be laid down and blood will flow for thousands of miles.
…
"You succeeded in irritating me."
On the outskirts of Pengcheng, Zuo Sima Zhaoping was sitting on a gorgeous chariot, his face full of anger, his eyebrows raised, and his eyes wide with anger.
[In view of the general environment,
Zhaoping was very angry.
Originally, he had already calculated the fleeing direction of the Qin army and rushed to Qiyi in advance to intercept it. If nothing unexpected happened, he would annihilate the Qin army there and win a great victory.
Unexpectedly, Li You suddenly appeared and led a group of Qin troops to defeat Qiyi. He successfully misled him to pursue northward, but the Qin army of more than 5,000 people ran away.
This is the first anger.
Although Zhao Ping was angry, he was only slightly angry, and even felt like he was laughing or laughing.
When he received the report from Ge Ying and found out that the Qin army had fraudulently obtained the talisman to leave the fortress and headed east, he immediately led his army to catch up. This was nothing at all.
But when he arrived outside Fulisai City and saw the Jingguan built up by nearly a thousand corpses, the anger in Zhaoping's chest continued to grow.
….
Shuzi deceives people too much!
In the hinterland of the Chu State, breaking through the Chu State's fortress and killing people and laying up corpses was simply a naked demonstration.
If word got out, it would disappoint his dignified Sima, let alone slap the face of the entire Chu Kingdom. When the King of Chu in Shouchun City knew the news, he would probably be furious.
This is the second anger.
When Zhaoping came to Pengcheng, his anger reached its peak.
He had made strategic arrangements to have the messenger arrive in advance via a detour, and ordered Pengcheng guard Qu Song to block the Qin army in front of Pengcheng at all costs.
At that time, when Zuo Sima arrives with his army, he will be able to wipe out the Qin army in one fell swoop.
With such an upright tactic, why worry about winning?
Unexpectedly, Qu Song came up with a stupid plan to deceive the Qin army and attack the enemy camp at night.
Not only did he let the Qin army leave, he was also ambushed, risking his own life and that of hundreds of Chu soldiers, and it became a big joke.
This was the third wrath, which was enough to make Zhao Ping furious.
Not only was he angry at the women of Qin for their deceit, but he was also angry at Qu Song
madness.
"The Qu family are all a bunch of idiots!"
Zhao Ping gritted his teeth and hit Che Shi hard with his fist. The sound he made made the horsemen in front of him want to turn around and take a look.
Seeing that the cunning fish escaped from his pursuit three times, and fled further and further, almost reaching Liuyi and Peiyi.
Zhaoping was not only angry, but also a little panicked.
The king of Chu promoted him to the position of Zuo Sima. It was not for free. You have to show his results to see.
With the character of the current king, if Zhaoping cannot capture this Qin army, I am afraid that not only will Zuo Sima lose his position, but he will also be punished.
"Don't worry, Zuo Sima. According to what the Chu army in Pengcheng said, the Qin army still carries wounded soldiers, and they are marching all the way to attack our Chu cities to obtain food supplies. The speed will certainly not be much faster, our army As long as we pursue them closely, we will surely catch them before they leave the Chu realm."
Jing Tong expressed relief at the side, but he was actually very anxious. If the Qin army was allowed to escape successfully, not only Zhaoping would be punished by the King of Chu, but Jing Tong might also be implicated, and his future future would be difficult to guarantee.
Zhao Ping nodded, he also understood what Jing Tong said.
They still have a chance.
Zhaoping said bitterly: "Let the people of Pengcheng quickly transport the food to the military camp, and order the troops to boil water to make rice, kill chickens and dogs, and get a few cows to reward the sergeants. After a full meal, the army will be on the road immediately. .I will catch up with you non-stop for two days and two nights!"
Next, in Pengcheng, there was another burst of chickens and dogs.
After the army had eaten and drank enough and set off on their journey, there was only a mess left in the place where they had rested outside the city.
On the road from Pengcheng to Peiyi on the border of Chu State, about 10,000 Chu troops were marching rapidly.
But the march was not very pleasant. First, they arrived at the place where Qu Song was ambushed two days ago.
I saw hundreds of Chu army corpses piled on both sides of the road, which had been built into a Jingguan by the Qin people. This terrifying appearance made the Chu people in Pengcheng City afraid to come and collect the corpses.
As for Zhaoping's soldiers, all of them turned pale.
They originally did not take this Qin army seriously. After all, their number was twice that of this Qin army. It also happened that Qin and Chu fought a great victory against Chu. They also annihilated an army north of Qiyi. The Qin army was at a time of great morale.
….
But it was a pity that after chasing them all the way, the ordinary Chu soldiers' legs were numb and their waists and knees were weak after walking for hundreds of miles. In the end, they still couldn't catch up with this cunning Qin army, and they were already quite discouraged.
Secondly, most of this Chu army was cobbled together from miscellaneous troops from various places. They were basically farmers, fishermen and the like who were recruited. After all, the elites of Qu Jingzhao's three clans were all taken by Xiang Yan to fight against Mengwu, and that was the real main battlefield.
Therefore, the psychological quality of the Chu army of about 10,000 people was not high. They were first frightened by the Jingguan built with thousands of corpses in Fulisai, and now they saw this terrible scene again north of Pengcheng. , has made many Chu people tremble with fear.
Buried in these mounds are soldiers of the Chu State like them.
The ferocious heads with blue faces and wide-open eyes that emerged from the mounds frightened these Chu soldiers, but also left a huge psychological shadow in their hearts, for fear that they would also fall into this kind of horror. fate.
At the same time, there were also some well-informed and gossipy Chu soldiers who also spread information about the Qin army in the army.
It is said that they raided 5,000 Chu troops at the foot of the Eight Mountains, killing all the Chu soldiers and even captured the general Qu Ming.
It is said that they exposed their buttocks under the Shouchun City to scare the King of Chu, and their king actually fainted.
It is said that they fought their way through Huainan...
While chasing all the way, the Chu soldiers were panicked, frightened and frightened, and their originally good morale fell to the bottom.
Compared with the worries and fears of ordinary soldiers, Zhaoping, as the leading general, turned blue with anger and his hands trembled.
The Qin army left many gifts for him on the way.
Every once in a while, there will be a big tree that has been cut down blocking the road. Those big trees
There was a section of bark that was peeled off, revealing white wood with many words written on it.
The beginnings are all written in Chu characters.
"Qin General Zhao Tuo sent to Chu State Zuo Sima Zhaoping."
After these Chu characters, they were written in Qin characters.
The Chu general in the vanguard understood the first sentence and knew that it was the message left by the enemy general, but he could not understand the word Qin that followed.
He did not dare to neglect, so he asked people to report to Zuo Sima immediately.
After all, only high-ranking nobles like Zhaoping and Jingtong could master the languages of multiple countries.
When he encountered the first piece of information, Jing Tong arrived first. He read a few sentences, and his expression suddenly changed. Just as he was about to have the words scratched off, Zhaoping had already received the message and came.
Zhao Ping took a closer look and his face suddenly turned red.
"Zhaoping, are you your mother's maid?"
"Slowly and slowly, are you joking?"
"Or maybe I lost food along the way, so I'm slowing down?"
Dongjun taking off
