"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!!"
In the study, Ying Zheng heard the noise and turned around to look at the eunuch who was walking in a hurry. Wang Jian, General Teng and others who were in the study together shook their heads and sighed, and also noticed the panicked eunuch walking towards Ying Zheng. before.
Everyone was a little confused as to what happened to make the eunuch so anxious.
"Your Majesty, great victory! Great victory!!!"
The eunuch knelt on the ground, holding a roll of bamboo slips in both hands, and kept saying the word "great victory" in his mouth.
"A great victory?"
Ying Zheng frowned when he heard this, and became more and more confused, who will be victorious?
"A great victory?"
"Great victory??"
Not only Ying Zheng, but also Meng Wu, Xin Sheng, Wang Jian and others also showed surprised expressions.
"General Bai Yan achieved a great victory and defeated the Chu army at Puchun..."
The eunuch said excitedly.
As soon as the eunuch's words were spoken, Ying Zheng froze on the spot for a moment, and then his expression changed drastically. He couldn't care about Han Ye who was standing aside, nor did he wait for Meng Tian and others.
Under the gaze of everyone in the study, Ying Zheng, who was wearing a black royal robe, walked quickly past everyone, came to the eunuch, and picked up the black royal robe. Bamboo slips, open and look.
In the quiet study room.
Wang Jian, Meng Wu, Xin Sheng, General Teng, Wei Liao and other Qin ministers, totaling more than 20 people, all looked at each other in surprise.
Just now the eunuch actually said that Bai Yan won a great victory!
How can this be?
Lord Changping had clearly prepared the square formation. When the Chu army had the square formation, so many of them, no, everyone in Xianyang, and even more places, could not break the square formation.
How could Bai Yan defeat the Chu army? Could it be that Lord Changping was not in Puchun?
With this thought, almost all the old generals couldn't help but shake their heads. Logically speaking, it was impossible. They had already calculated that once Xiang Yan divided his troops, the leader of the Chu army who would stay behind would definitely be Lord Changping.
Apart from Lord Changping, there is no other candidate. After all, no one knows about the Fangyuan Formation. Even Yao Jia has not received detailed information. This is enough to prove that there are very few people in Chu who know about the Fangyuan Formation, not to mention the status of Lord Changping. , is also the best choice!
But if Lord Changping was here, how could there be news of Bai Yan's victory?
"Good! Good! Good!!! Color! Big color! The late king supported Wu'an! I have a strong man among the poor! Send an order..."
While all the old generals were thinking, Ying Zheng looked at the bamboo slips, his trembling hands full of excitement, his eyes slightly red. After reading it twice, he suddenly turned around and looked at Han Yezhe.
"On the day Bai Yan returns, I will go to Bashang to welcome him! No, I will go to Wuguan in person to welcome Bai Yan back to Qin!"
Ying Zheng whispered the order word by word, his whole person was in an excited expression, full of excitement.
When all the ministers in the study heard the word Wu Lie, they immediately knew that Ying Zheng was talking about Bai Yan. After the Wei Dynasty was destroyed in the past, Bai Yan inherited the dream from heaven and found the Jiuzhou tripod and presented it to Ying Zheng.
Such a great achievement was unparalleled since ancient times. Even the civil and military officials of the DPRK, the ministers of the Qin State, and the Ying family clan members, almost everyone could not refute Ying Zheng's act of conferring the title of king on Bai Yan.
Those who have made meritorious deeds to bring peace to the people are called Lie, those who have made meritorious deeds by force, uphold their virtues and respect their careers are called Lie!
In order to praise the actions of Gaonu in Shangjun and the looting and selling of Yanyu and Yanmen, Wu Lie! It was after the discussion of all the ministers of the Qin State, as well as the civil and military officials, that after Ying Zheng made the final decision, he gave Bai Yan the title of king.
However, after Bai Yan led the army to destroy Wei, he continued to lead the Qin army to attack Qufu and then went south to the hinterland of Chu. Neither the reward nor the title of king was given to Bai Yan personally.
"Wuguan?"
"Wuguan!!!"
When they heard that Ying Zheng was going to Wuguan to welcome Bai Yan back to Qin, not to mention Wang Jian, Meng Wu and others, but also Li Si, Feng Quji, and Ying Kan who had returned to Xianyang, they were all stunned, looked at each other in surprise, and then started talking Look at Wei Liao.
This kind of treatment was not given to Wei Liao or Wei Zhe who fled Qin.
Bai Yan's great victory, Ying Zheng wants to go to Wuguan in person to welcome him? This...
wrong.
If it were a simple victory, it would never come to this...
While thinking, an idea slowly emerged in everyone's mind. Looking at the bamboo slips in Ying Zheng's hand, everyone's eyes changed instantly, and an idea that shocked everyone quietly appeared in everyone's mind.
Everyone was surprised and puzzled.
"promise!"
When Han Ye heard Ying Zheng's words, he quickly accepted the order.
"Your Majesty, General Bai Yan has a great victory, could it be..."
Wang Jian watched Han Yezhe receive the order, couldn't help but look at Ying Zheng and asked, and then looked at the others.
Ying Zheng turned his head when he heard Wang Jian's inquiry. In excitement, he scanned everyone.
"Bai Yan led the Qin army and fought with the Chu army at Puchun! The Chu army was defeated and the Qin army won a great victory!"
Under the gaze of everyone, Ying Zheng said with emotion: "The rebel Changping Lord is unwilling to surrender to Qin, so Bai Yan beheaded him, and more than ten Chu generals were beheaded!"
When Ying Zheng said these words, his heart was filled with joy, as if a thousand pounds of weight had been lifted off his whole body. The breath he had been holding in his heart finally came out, and he could breathe easily.
Lord Changping, the Right Prime Minister of Qin who once betrayed Qin and made Ying Zheng faint from anger, also made Ying Zheng humiliated, let 200,000 Qin troops die in battle, and almost made Bai Yan and his elite Qin troops almost die. All the people who died in Chudong.
Now, Lord Changping is finally dead!
Ying Zheng thought of Lord Changping countless times and trembled all over. If it weren't for Bai Yan, Ying Zheng couldn't imagine that if Li Xin was defeated and 200,000 Qin troops were killed, Bai Yan and the elite of Qin under his command were all surrounded and killed by the Chu army. In Chudong.
How does Ying Zheng face the people of Qin, how does he continue to sit on the throne, and how does he face the civil and military officials of Qin in the court?
Fortunately, Bai Yan did not have the worst consequences, and did not make it difficult for him to win the government. Not only did he cut off Lord Changwen's head, but now he also sent Lord Changping's head to Xianyang.
"Qin's great enmity and the shame of others must be avenged!"
Ying Zheng said.
After finishing speaking, Ying Zheng raised his head slightly and suddenly showed an inexplicable smile, which seemed to be happy, relieved, and grateful.
"Mr. Changping was beheaded by Bai Yan!"
"What, Changping-kun..."
After hearing Ying Zheng's words, Wang Jian, Meng Wu, Xin Sheng, Li Si and others were still surprised, even though they had already made assumptions in their hearts. Then, like Wei Liao, Feng Quji and others, they all turned to look at Teng in confusion. Old general.
Previously, after learning that Xiang Yan had divided his forces, Lord Changping must be commanding the Chu army to guard against Bai Yan. Therefore, Ying Zheng asked everyone what the chances of victory would be if Bai Yan fought with Lord Changping.
Everyone, without exception, was not optimistic about Bai Yan. After all, so many of them could not crack the square formation. Among them, General Teng even told Ying Zheng personally that Bai Yan had never read a military book.
The biggest difference between formations and strategies lies in the art of war!
This also made them more and more convinced that it would be better if Bai Yan didn't meet Lord Changping, and it would be better if he didn't fight head-on. If he met Lord Changping in a head-on fight, it would be very dangerous.
As a result, now...
Bai Yan wins! Not only did he win a great victory, but he also killed Lord Changping!
In the study room.
General Teng felt the gazes of all his colleagues around him. At this moment, not to mention Wang Jian, Li Si and others, even General Teng himself looked stunned and a little confused.
Looking back on the previous contact with Bai Yan, Bai Yan did say that he had never read military books. Besides, there was no need for Bai Yan to hide this matter.
"Kings!"
General Teng came back to his senses and originally wanted to ask Ying Zheng if Bai Yan could record in the bamboo slips how to win and whether he encountered the Chu army's square formation.
But before General Teng could say anything, he saw several eunuchs leading two cavalry soldiers who had removed their swords to the study room. Among them, the cavalry soldier slightly behind was holding an exquisite wooden box.
"No more talking about Yi! Meet the king!"
"Hairpin Niao Lixin! Meet the King!!"
After running around for days, the faces of the two cavalry soldiers looked a little tired, but they were still extremely excited to see Ying Zheng in person.
Seeing Han Yezhe step forward, Su Xin carefully handed the wooden box in his hand to Han Yezhe.
When General Teng, Wang Jian, Meng Wu and others saw these two cavalry soldiers, they thought of many things, especially some detailed experiences that they could ask these cavalry soldiers, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Order him to be hung on a torture cart and paraded through the streets for three months!"
After Han Ye opened the wooden box, Ying Zheng saw the head in the wooden box. It was the head of Lord Changping. The other one could not be seen clearly, but Bai Yan had explained its origin in the letter. It's Chang Wenjun.
The long-standing resentment and the deaths of 200,000 Qin soldiers made Ying Zheng decide to parade the heads of Lord Changping and Lord Changwen through the streets.
Ying Zheng wants everyone, the whole world, to see the consequences of betraying him.
"promise!"
Han Yezhe quickly accepted the order and then covered the wooden box back. Although it had been dealt with, the stench still made Han Yezhe a little unbearable.
When Feng Quji and Wang Wan heard Ying Zheng's words, they thought about it, hesitated and finally did not speak.
The two of them knew that Ying Zheng's actions would give the world's scholars an opportunity to criticize them verbally and verbally, but considering the status of Lord Changping and Lord Changwen, their betrayal of Qin and their influence, perhaps parading them in the streets would be useful.
Perhaps this is also an explanation given by Ying Zheng to the Qin people.
"You two will be promoted to two ranks, and all the accompanying soldiers will be promoted to one rank!"
After Ying Zheng watched Han Yezhe leave, he said to the two generals.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!!"
When Tan Yi and Su Xin heard this, they both raised their hands with excitement and thanked them. This time, Ying Zheng promoted them personally. I am afraid that other soldiers will be jealous of them in the future.
"Tell me about Chu Dong!"
After Ying Zheng learned that these two people were Bai Yan's cronies, he personally asked Bai Yan how he led the troops in Putun and what the situation was like there now.
In the study room.
Under the eyes of Ying Zheng, Feng Quji, Wang Jian, Li Si, Wei Liao and other important officials of the Qin State, Tan Yi and Su Xin told them one by one about Bai Yan's leadership of the army in the east of Chu.
Only then, not to mention the veteran generals leading the army such as Wang Jian, Meng Wu, and General Teng, but also Ying Zheng and Feng Quji, did they clearly understand how dangerous Bai Yan's situation was in the past. If you are not careful, your entire army will be wiped out.
And when they heard what happened in the Battle of Putun, although they were not on the battlefield, from the descriptions of Su Xin and Wang Jian, General Teng, Meng Wu and other veteran generals, they still took a breath and looked shocked.
Especially for Bai Yan's decisiveness, he did not hesitate to expose his flank to the Chu army and let the Chu army attack.
Not to mention Wang Jian and Meng Wu, even General Teng couldn't help but shake his head. Victory or defeat on the battlefield could be doomed by a little negligence. They all led troops to win steadily and would never take risks like Bai Yan. Perhaps , this is also the reason why Bai Yan can crack the square array.
Unfortunately, these two generals were focused on the battlefield at that time and did not remember much of Bai Yan's orders. In addition, the simple descriptions were somewhat biased. If you want to know how to crack the square array, you may still have to wait for Bai Yan to come back. Only by asking Bai Yan personally can the confusion be clarified.
While General Teng, Meng Wu, Xin Sheng and others were feeling regretful, Ying Zheng on the side not only learned about the danger Bai Yan was facing from the words of these two soldiers, but also heard that Bai Yan was asking for food and millet. Everything has been spent.
All the previous rewards, all the money from the Luoyin fiefdom, and even the mansion... were all replaced by grain and grass to feed the Qin army's soldiers.
Learn this.
Ying Zheng couldn't help but remember that in the incriminating letter submitted by Zhang Min in the past, it was mentioned that the prince of Qi was promoted, and he took the risk of leaving Linzi of Qi, and went to Chu in person with Tian Ding, and went to Suiyang City to invite Bai Yan to return to Qi.
Faced with the siege of the Chu army, being in a dangerous situation, and facing Gongzi Sheng's sincere actions that he would not hesitate to take risks, Bai Yan never had the thought of leaving the Qin army, let alone the slightest thought of leaving the Qin country.
Zhang Min was puzzled and asked Bai Yan why he didn't leave. Bai Yan answered Zhang Min himself.
To eat the emperor's salary and to be loyal to the emperor, I spread my three-foot-long body to the Qin Kingdom, and it will be difficult to return to Qin! ! !
In the study room.
Ying Zheng, who had avenged his great revenge, felt relaxed and happy in his heart, but after learning about Bai Yan's actions, he still couldn't help but be touched.
Ying Zheng closed his eyes and kept repeating this sentence in his mind, eating the emperor's salary is the only thing to be loyal to the emperor!
This made Ying Zheng couldn't help but recall Bai Yan's past days of leading troops on the battlefield and expanding territory for Qin...
And the body of three feet is for the Qin Kingdom!
What Ying Zheng thought of was that Li Xin was defeated and Wang Ben had no choice but to withdraw his troops. Xiang Yan and Jing Qi had no less than 400,000 Chu troops and were about to surround Bai Yan and all the Qin troops in the east of Chu and annihilate them all! Faced with the promotion of Qi's son, Tian Ding's repeated invitations, titles, status and other promises that were better than Qin's, Bai Yan still chose to stay and continue to lead the Qin army for Qin, even if he was in danger. There is a possibility of dying in battle at any time.
"I have finally fulfilled God's will! Why does the sky show this!"
Ying Zheng slowly opened his eyes and sighed softly.
Compared with Lord Changping and Lord Changwen who were granted the title of Prime Minister in the past, compared with Meng Tian and Li Xin who were defeated by the Qin army after being attacked by the Chu army, with 200,000 casualties and 200,000 casualties, and compared with all the prefectures and counties in the Qin State, only Yanmen A vigorous and thorough investigation was carried out into the matter of looting and selling.
Ying Zheng finally knew why the sky chose Bai Yan to entrust his dream among all living beings, and Bai Yan also found the Jiuzhou tripod that had been buried for forty years and sent it to Xianyang.
What a lesson from heaven and earth! What a blessing from heaven!
Compared with these veteran generals and ministers in front of him, Bai Yan's various deeds, his actions of going through life and death, and treating death as if it were a piece of cake. Even though Bai Yan is young, his words and deeds of being willing to sacrifice everything for Qin are no less than any veteran minister.
'Your Majesty, Bai Yan was born into a poor family. He was just the son of one hundred farmers in Qi State. He grew up eating vegetables and plain soup. His parents were no more than ordinary people. His grandmother advised Bai Yan since he was a child. He should not forget his ambitions when he was in poverty and gain power. Only by never forgetting your roots and your original intention can you always succeed..."
He once again remembered the way Bai Yan said these words with sincerity in front of him.
Thinking of the old woman again, Ying Zheng was filled with emotion. The old woman taught Bai Yan, hoping that Bai Yan could be like Qu Yuan, but how did the old woman know that her grandson...
"The martial prowess of a few people is far beyond that of Qu Yuan's generation!"
As he was thinking in his mind, Ying Zheng couldn't help but smile. His heart was full of pride, and he felt relaxed as never before. For the first time, the idea of rewarding the old woman gradually came to his mind.
"Your Majesty, Lord Changping has been defeated. If Bai Yan is stationed at Fuli Fortress, the Kingdom of Chu will be in danger!"
Wang Jian stood beside the map among many ministers and spoke.
Ying Zheng came to his senses, put away his thoughts, and then walked to the huge map while other ministers gave way, and looked at the position pointed by Wang Jian, Fu Lisai.
"Indeed, Fuli Fortress is a dangerous and secure place for Chu State. If Fu Li Fortress is obtained, it is impossible to capture Fuli Fortress with only Xiang Yan and an army of Chu State. In addition, Chu State's food and grass loss is serious, Your Majesty... …”
Meng Wu looked at the map, and as he spoke, his face became excited, and he looked up at Ying Zheng.
"The Kingdom of Chu is dead!"
Meng Wu felt indescribably complicated at this moment. Seeing the possibility of the Chu Kingdom being destroyed, Meng Wu, like everyone else, felt relieved in his heart. However, he thought of the previous rift with Bai Yan, and even the decades-old feud. His friends were all hostile to Bai Yan. In addition, his eldest son Meng Tian was defeated in the army before, resulting in the death of 200,000 Qin soldiers.
At this time, Meng Wu didn't know whether he should be happy or hope that Bai Yan would be defeated.
"General Wang Jian, General Meng Wu, you two will immediately lead the troops to attack Chu. Together with Bai Yan, they will surround Xiang Yan. I will mobilize all the grain and grass from Qin and follow the two generals into Chu!"
Ying Zheng looked at the map and said with joy.
After South Korea, Zhao, Yan, and Wei, the biggest obstacle to annexing the Chu State in the world was to subjugate the country and be captured by the Qin State. This made Ying Zheng unhappy. His great revenge was avenged, and he watched the twists and turns. Due to the situation in Chu, Ying Zheng could not wait to share the good news with the world immediately.
And what Ying Zheng is looking forward to is that once the Chu Kingdom is destroyed, Bai Yan will be able to return to the Qin Kingdom and return to Xianyang. Those things that have been buried in his heart that he urgently wants to ask Bai Yan will finally have a chance to speak out.
"promise!"
"promise!!"
Wang Jian and Meng Wu heard Ying Zheng's order and quickly accepted it.
Xianyang Palace.
At this moment, the palace guards learned that all the cavalry came to Xianyang under Bai Yan's order. They were already curious about the war in Chudi, and seeing so many cavalry arriving, the palace guards who knew that something big must have happened started to inquire.
It's okay not to ask. When they learned that Bai Yan led the Qin army, defeated the Chu army in Puchun, and killed Changping Lord, everyone was shocked.
And with the changing of the guard, more and more people know the news.
Two hours later, news of the great victory quickly spread throughout Xianyang City!
The writing style of Daidao is limited, and I cannot express the feeling of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty pampering Huo Qubing.
Ying Zheng did not kill heroes at all, and Bai Yan had many events to support him, which made Ying Zheng, the emperor through the ages, like Bai Yan even more.
Thank you to everyone for your monthly votes and recommendation votes, thank you!
Daidao is grateful to all book friends for their great support, thank you!
The subsequent plot is even more exciting, whether it is returning to Qi or Ying Zheng knowing that the person who wrote the book is Bai Yan!
