As the edict was promulgated, Wang Jian, who was stationed in Shangdang, looked at the edict with some surprise. He knew that Qin's attack on Han was imminent, and he also wanted to be the commander-in-chief of this first battle to destroy the country. At the same time, he also knew that Mengwu would follow him However, in the end, the court agreed to let Ziyou serve as the commander-in-chief of the army. However, he later understood why Ziyou was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the army. In order to suppress the military people like them, the first war of annihilation of the country would not occur. Problems caused by inconsistencies in military merit and so on.
Dunruo looked at the edict and felt a little worried. He didn't understand the deeper meaning of the court's actions, but he was also worried that Ziyou didn't understand military matters and was giving blind orders.
"General, why did the king let Wang Shi be the commander of the army? I have never heard that he can command the army?" Dunruo said as he put down the edict.
"I have never heard that Mr. Meng Wu will lead the army, but Meng Wu, Yang Duanhe and I will be the deputy generals this time. Yang Duanhe is the vanguard. We are the ones who actually lead the troops, not Mr." Wang Jian said.
Wang Jian was also glad that Ziyou was the one who could balance the forces of all parties, and was not a person who liked to perform micro-management in person. Otherwise, there was no telling what unexpected things would happen in this battle to attack South Korea.
"This attack on South Korea is divided into three groups. It is expected that they will finally converge in Xinzheng. Which group will Wang Division follow?" Dunruo asked curiously. There are also separate attacks when marching, but there is always one group of armies that is the main force and is responsible for the entire annihilation. The country's affairs, so Ziyou's choice is very important for these three groups, because which group Ziyou is the main force means that the military merits are sufficient.
"It doesn't matter which way we follow. No matter what, we are the absolute main force. Two hundred thousand troops are going south. Yang Duanhe and Meng Wu combined only have 70,000 people. Their role is to contain Bai Yifei of Nanyang. According to the layout of the court , we went south to occupy the Wild King, and further attacked Xinzheng, while Yang Duanhe and Mengwu involved Bai Yifei in Nanyang, making it impossible for him to return to the rescue. Half of the combatable troops that South Korea can mobilize are in Bai Yifei's hands. As long as we take down Wei Zhuang's hands Tens of thousands of people in Korea will be destroyed," Wang Jian said.
Anyone who is not a fool knows that the 200,000 soldiers and horses in his hands are the real main force. These 200,000 soldiers and horses are not counted as civilians, but actual 200,000 soldiers who can recruit good warriors. Although Meng Wu They have 20,000 cavalry in their hands, but they are still insufficient when facing the siege. After all, not everyone is Li Mu, who used 30,000 light cavalry to smash the city garrisoned by 100,000 people in the Yan Kingdom.
"That's it." Dun Ruo said.
"You still have something to learn. Mobilize your troops and prepare to go south to destroy Korea!!" Wang Jian took out the Tiger Talisman and said.
"No!!" Dunruo took the tiger talisman and began to convey military orders.
As the Qin army began to attack South Korea, King An of Han, who was having fun in the Han palace, was so frightened that he pissed himself. He held an emergency meeting and asked the ministers to discuss the matter. However, the result of the discussion made King An of Han furious. The war had not yet begun. South Korea's Most of the ministers advocated surrender. They all thought that the Qin State just wanted to keep those lands. At most, it would be better to cut off some more, so as not to delay their continued enjoyment.
"Qin is attacking from three sides this time. Wang Jian even has an army of 200,000. They are not trying to cede territory, but to destroy the country!!" Zhang Kaidi shouted loudly in the hall. Looking at the mediocre court ministers, Zhang Zhang Kaidi's eyes were full of disappointment. His hope now rested on Bai Yifei and Wei Zhuang, who was rushing back. Wei Zhuang had already entered South Korea and would arrive in Xinzheng soon.
Looking at the open land, Han Wangan asked as if grasping a life-saving straw.
"Does Zhang Qing have any good ideas?"
"Reporting back to your Majesty, the Qin State is coming with a fierce attack this time, with a three-pronged attack. All the capable warriors in the country rely on the 100,000 troops of the Blood-clothed Marquis. Currently, the Wild King has 50,000 defenders to delay the attack. The general has returned from the expedition against the Chu State. , relying on 100,000 people to defend Ye Wang, he still has the strength to fight. Whether the danger can be turned into safety depends on whether the Xueyi Hou can defeat Meng Wu and Yang Duanhe. As long as the Xueyi Hou can defeat the two of them before the Wild King is captured, he can go north. Support, South Korea still has a glimmer of hope." He said openly.
"Can we just wait for the Blood-clothed Marquis to defeat Meng Wu and Yang Duanhe?" Han Wangan murmured to himself. It is common knowledge in Korea that everyone is afraid of Qin, but there is one exception, that is Bai Yifei of Nanyang, Bai Yifei's mother, The only female marquis in South Korea, Marquis Xueyi led the people and army of Nanyang to defeat the Qin army, and was awarded the title of marquis.
"The king can send people to ask for help from the surrounding countries, especially Zhao and Wei. Wei and South Korea have been friends for generations. If South Korea is destroyed, Zhao Wei will be next. They also know the reason for death." said.
Looking at Han Wangan with a complicated expression, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He didn't know that it was impossible to ask Zhao Wei to support him. He just wanted to give the Korean court and Han Wangan a hope, hoping that they would not take the lead. Regarding the matter of surrender, in Kaifang's heart, South Korea still has the strength to fight, but the end is destined to be miserable.
"According to what the Prime Minister said, send people to rescue. Not only South Korea and Wei, but also the other five countries have sent envoys to ask for help. Even if it is Chu, we can return the captured land and the property exchanged from Wei in exchange for Chu. The country sends troops." After Han Wangan said these words, his whole body seemed to have aged by more than ten years, his shoulders and spine collapsed in an instant, and he collapsed on the throne.
The ministers below were talking about promise, but what they were thinking about was how to maintain their status after Korea was destroyed. They didn't care whether the king above them was the King of Han or the King of Qin. To them, everyone was the same. , they all need people like them to rule the people. They don't care whether South Korea is destroyed, what they care about is how they can get more benefits.
After the ministers left the main hall, they did not worry about the destruction of the country at all. They met in small groups to have a banquet or go to Zilanxuan. Looking at the ministers who were not making any progress in state affairs, Zhang Kai's heart felt desolate. The only thing he wanted to think about now was He just hopes that Bai Yifei and Wei Zhuang can defeat Qin in exchange for a chance of survival. At the same time, he is determined that as long as South Korea can survive this time, he will rectify the officialdom.
The start of Qin's war to destroy Han made the whole of Korea tremble. After receiving the edict, Meng Wu and Yang Duanhe attacked South Korea. The two sides joined forces to confront Bai Yifei's 100,000 troops, because their edict contained The order will be decided by Ziyou after Ziyou arrives.
Meng Wu, Yang Duanhe, Li Xin and Feng Wuze were sitting in the military tent, discussing how to defeat Bai Yifei's 100,000 people. They only had less than 70,000 people. If they were ordinary 100,000 people, they could also fight. , but Bai Yifei's army is not weaker than them, and it has the advantage of geographical location.
"Bai Yifei has been operating in Nanyang for a long time. He dares to confront us in the wild. He obviously wants to keep us out of Nanyang. He abandons the city and fights in the wild. Doesn't he look down on us?" Li Xin said.
It is obviously not a wise move to abandon a strong city and fight with them in the wild. There are only two types of people who dare to do such a thing. The first type is those who have enough advantages and confidence to defeat them in the wild. The second type is fools who dare to do so. Fighting with them in the wild, although they are small in number, they still have 20,000 cavalry. When fighting in such a plain area, if 20,000 cavalry are running, even 100,000 people may not be able to stop them.
"Where is sir now?" Yang Duanhe asked.
Everyone else looked at me and I looked at you. No one knew where Ziyou was now. The edict stated that Ziyou was responsible for all matters related to the battle against Bai Yifei. They had joined forces for several days, even from After setting off from Xianyang, Ziyou should have arrived at the military camp, but no one knows where Ziyou is now.
"I heard rumors in the court that Master Wang and the Taiwei made a bet. If they can capture Nanyang without spending a single soldier, Master Wang is already in Nanyang." Feng Wuze said, after Li Xin told Ziyou many things After the deed, Feng Wuze had an intuition that Ziyou was definitely causing trouble in Nanyang now.
"What are you going to do, sir? Assassinate Bai Yifei?" Li Xin said.
"Not necessarily, maybe Mr. Zhang is the same as before." Meng Wu said, looking in the direction of Nanyang.
In addition to deceiving Chu, Zhang Yi also wanted to recruit Puyang from the Wei state. Meng Wu guessed that Zi You wanted to recruit Bai Yifei to surrender, but Meng Wu felt that Bai Yifei would not do so. A hereditary title means separation from the country, and Bai Yifei betrayed South Korea. His reputation will be ruined, everything he has worked so hard in Nanyang will be ruined, and Qin will probably not reuse him again.
"Why are you thinking so much? We'll find out when Mr. comes." Li Xin said.
At this time, an inconspicuous carriage was driving in Nanyang.
"Sir, will the Bloody Marquis really agree to surrender?" Mo Ya was also curious. Although the Bloody Marquis Bai Yifei was once one of the four ferocious generals, Mo Ya knew that the Bloody Marquis had never been on the same side as Ji Wuye. In terms of orders, Most of them were loyal to the King of Han.
"Don't you believe it?" Ziyou looked at it and asked.
"I really think it's impossible, but since Mr. insists so much, maybe it's really possible." Mo Ya said.
"What do you think will happen to the people after the war starts?" Ziyou asked.
Mo Ya didn't understand why Ziyou suddenly asked this, but he still answered honestly.
"They must be avoiding the war. They either stay at home or hide in the mountains until the war is over."
"Then what do you think the people in Nanyang are like?" Ziyou said, pointing to the people working in the fields.
Mo Ya was stunned and looked at the farmland around him. There were many working people among them. There was no worry about the war on everyone's face. Some people were even leisurely enjoying the cool under the trees. Under Mo Ya's puzzled eyes, During the process, Ziyou asked him to stop the carriage and came to an old man who was resting in the field.
"Old man, a war is about to break out in Nanyang. You are still farming here. Aren't you afraid of being involved?" Ziyou asked.
"Descendants, you are from out of town, right? Nanyang has blood-clothed marquis, and the war cannot affect us." The old man said with a smile, but there was a sense of regret in his voice.
"Back then, Mrs. Xue led the people of Nanyang to defeat the Qin army that attacked South Korea, and saved our land and compatriots. Later, we were exempted from taxes for three years, making Nanyang the richest place in South Korea. Although the Bloody Marquis is not as good as Xue Yi back then, Madam is so kind, but she also has skills. When attacking Baiyue, all the people of Nanyang will follow her. It's a pity that she once followed the general Ji Wuye and did a lot of wrong things. Fortunately, Ji Wuye died early, so that the Marquis Come to your senses.”
"The Bloody Marquis is regarded as a savage beast in Xinzheng. Aren't you afraid?" Ziyou continued to ask.
"The Marquis is the child of Mrs. Xue, and he has the blood of Mrs. Xue. We don't know how he is doing in Xinzheng, but he has not failed the people of Nanyang in the slightest. What Nanyang is today is the result of two generations of Mrs. Xue and the Marquis. Old man, although I am old, my heart is not confused yet. For Nanyang, the Marquis also has his own helplessness." The old man said.
After Ziyou said goodbye to the old man, he looked at the dazed Mo Ya next to him and said
"Now you know why I dared to say that Bai Yifei was able to surrender, right?"
"Because of the people of Nanyang." Mo Ya nodded and said. He felt that his world was a little chaotic. He never thought that the feared blood-clothed Hou Bai Yifei would be so popular in Nanyang.
"Back then, Bai Yifei saw the future of South Korea and reached an agreement with me. If Qin attacked South Korea, he was willing to surrender as long as he did not harm the people of Nanyang and spared 100,000 white-armored troops." Ziyou said.
"I really didn't expect that Marquis Xueyi could do this for Nanyang." Mo Ya said while holding the carriage.
There will be more in the afternoon
