Wang Jian did not refute, "I am indeed old."
"I sincerely ask Your Majesty to allow me to retire and return to my hometown to take care of myself."
"All right!"
Ying Zheng nodded, "Give General Wang Jian a chance to return home in fine clothes and live in peace in his old age!"
After all, Wang Jian made many contributions to the Qin Dynasty.
Even though he is an old man now, he must not be treated badly!
After Wang Jian retired.
Ying Zheng appointed Li Xin and Meng Tian as generals, led 200,000 troops, and sent troops to attack Chu!
At first, the two men were young and energetic. After they invaded the territory of Chu State, they marched straight in with overwhelming momentum!
The Chu army showed itself vulnerable and retreated in succession!
This further increased the confidence of Li Xin and Meng Tian!
Let them believe that the Chu army's combat power is so crotch-stretching!
But they never thought that all this was the conspiracy of Chu State General Xiang Yan!
Xiang Yan deliberately showed his weakness to the enemy and lured him deeper!
Let Li Xin and Meng Tian lead their troops deep into Chu territory!
Just when the two men were leading the Qin army and winning consecutive battles, Lord Changping, who was stationed at the rear of the Qin army, suddenly rebelled against Qin and returned to Chu!
After learning the news, Li Xin was forced to return to attack Lord Changping!
Xiang Yan, who had been looking for an opportunity to counterattack, saw that the Qin army finally showed a weakness and immediately led his army to attack!
Break through two forts and kill seven captains!
The Qin army was defeated!
After hearing the news of Li Xin's defeat, Ying Zheng could only go to Wang Jian's hometown in person, admit his mistake to Wang Jian, and ask Wang Jian to come out again!
Promise to gather 600,000 Qin troops and give them to Wang Jian to command!
Wang Jian then agreed to Ying Zheng's comeback, but before leaving, he asked Ying Zheng for a large amount of fertile land and beautiful houses!
Moreover, I still asked for it five times in a row!
Such greedy behavior is undoubtedly puzzling to many people!
Who would have thought that the military god of Great Qin, Wang Jian, would be such a greedy person?
"Wang Jian, you have great wisdom!"
However, in the Imperial Palace of the Tang Dynasty, Wei Zheng unexpectedly praised Wang Jian, leaving Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong and others a little confused.
How could such an act of greed turn into great wisdom?
Wei Zheng said: "Wang Jian holds the most powerful troops of the Qin Dynasty. Even if Ying Zheng trusts him, the civil and military officials of the Qin Dynasty may not trust him."
"After he leaves, if Chu cannot be captured in a short period of time, people will definitely gather together to impeach him."
"He did this because he wanted to tell Ying Zheng and the civil and military officials of Great Qin that what he wanted was nothing more than good land and a beautiful house."
"I see!"
Qin Qiong and others' faces suddenly showed expressions of surprise, "Wang Jian, you have good intentions!"
As a general, you are most afraid of your master’s suspicion!
Once a fire breaks out in the backyard, the front line is doomed to be in trouble!
Even though Ying Zheng was a master of great talent and strategy, Wang Jian still vaccinated the opponent in advance to be prepared!
To ensure that he has no worries during his expedition to Chu!
After Ying Zheng smiled and promised to give Wang Jian a large amount of fertile land and beautiful houses, Wang Jian led the 600,000 Qin army to conquer the Chu Kingdom southward!
The state of Chu was newly defeated by the Qin army, and its morale was at its peak. Xiang Yan was eager to fight, hoping to replicate the miracle of defeating Qin again!
But Wang Jian allowed the Chu army to challenge him and stood firm.
When the Chu army was exhausted, Wang Jian ordered the army to attack!
After one year, Wang Jian finally defeated the powerful Chu, beheaded Xiang Yan, and captured the Chu king to bear the cud!
In this way, the two most powerful vassal states, Zhao and Chu, were both attacked and destroyed by Xiang Yu!
It is a foregone conclusion that Da Qin will unify the six countries!
…
"Xiang Yan is also a famous general of his generation. It's a pity that he met Wang Jian."
There were a lot of discussions in China. Some people were praising Wang Jian's victory, while others felt sorry for Xiang Yan who was defeated and died in the battle!
Chu State has 400,000 armored men!
And there is a general like Xiang Yan in command!
If he hadn't met Wang Jian, how could he have destroyed the country so easily?
Li Xin and Meng Tian were both famous generals in the Qin Dynasty, but they were defeated by Xiang Yan because they underestimated the enemy!
After defeating the powerful Chu, Wang Jian returned to the court victoriously, and his prestige had undoubtedly reached its peak!
He returned to Xianyang and was welcomed by the people of Qin!
Wang Jian has undoubtedly become the military god in the eyes of all Qin people!
But after Wang Jian returned to the Qin Dynasty, the first thing he did was to voluntarily hand over his military power and ask to resign!
Even though Ying Zheng tried to persuade him to stay, Wang Jian was determined!
Ying Zheng could only agree to Wang Jian's request and cash in all the rewards Wang Jian had requested!
Wang Jian was able to discharge his armor and return to his fields, return to his hometown, and enjoy the happiness of his family.
…
Big man.
"Wang Jian was so decisive that he chose to retreat bravely at the height of his fame?"
Liu Che's face showed a look of surprise.
At this time, Wang Jian was indeed suspected of having overshadowed his master with his great achievements!
Even Ying Zheng is not a narrow-minded king.
But since ancient times, there are still many examples of even the most talented and strategist killing the founding heroes!
Just like their great ancestor Liu Bang, after the founding of the country, he killed a large number of heroes!
Among them, Han Xin, the general who destroyed countless countries!
Wang Jian, after gaining such a great reputation, could immediately withdraw from the Qin Dynasty and settle down as a rich man.
Such wisdom and courage are really rare!
…
Tang Dynasty.
"When it's over, brush off your clothes and hide your merit and fame!"
Li Shimin sighed with emotion, "But after reaching the pinnacle of power, can you really let go of everything and go back to being an ordinary person?"
Wang Jian chose to retire!
It's like asking him to give up everything and become an ordinary prince after being granted the title of General Tiance.
He, Li Shimin, thought he couldn't do it!
All the civil and military ministers of the Tang Dynasty also fell silent.
The goal from the beginning was to give up power and position.
So what’s the point of working hard in this life?
Why do these people have to go through life and death for the Tang Dynasty, and go through fire and water for Li Shimin?
It's easy to say it's easy to retire after success, but it's as difficult as climbing to the sky to actually do it!
…
Ming dynasty.
"The Yingzheng pattern is still not enough!"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xu Da, Tang He and others with a smile, "His great achievements shake the master? In our Ming Dynasty, there is no such thing!"
"I, Lao Zhu, will never treat meritorious ministers badly!"
The founding heroes of the Ming Dynasty present all nodded.
Zhu Yuanzhang is indeed pretty good to his old brothers!
At least that's what it seems for now!
It shouldn’t change in the future, right?
…
Da Qin.
Xianyang Palace.
"Wang Jian, he is worrying too much!"
Ying Zheng shook his head, "I will never kill any meritorious minister!"
These words were approved by the officials of Great Qin!
Ying Zheng has never done anything to kill heroes!
Even though Li Xin, a defeated general, returned from defeat in Chu, Ying Zheng did not punish him!
But still entrust him with important tasks!
Ying Zheng is more tolerant to meritorious ministers than any king!
As for Wang Jian, the reason why he chose to retreat bravely is probably because he saw the fate of the previous generation of Great Qin War God, Bai Qi!
At this moment, the Dao Golden List of that day suddenly twisted and rippled, and large golden characters appeared one by one!
