Wei Guang left here.
Not long after, Wang Chong entered.
"Your Majesty, this is from the Prime Minister." As he spoke, he respectfully placed a letter on the desk.
"Oh." The Spirit King responded, sat back on the desk, took out the letter, and read it carefully.
After he finished reading, he couldn't help but cough violently, which became more and more violent. He even took out a handkerchief to cover his mouth.
The content of the letter was about supply problems, and the words were full of spiritual worries. It also emphasized the difficulty of collecting food, the domestic situation was turbulent, and it could no longer be sustained for long.
There is no doubt that the defeat of a powerful nation will cause political instability and panic.
Lingguo had silver, but no grain and grass. It had countless gold and silver, and was rich per capita. It abandoned farming and accumulated silk, but had nowhere to buy it. This was inseparable from Qin's original grain control strategy.
This letter was a huge blow to the Spirit King. In addition, he was exhausted mentally and physically, had old illnesses, and was old. After coughing violently, he looked at the handkerchief and saw blood stains.
"Ah, Your Majesty..." Wang Chong suddenly panicked.
"No problem." The Spirit King wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and waved his hand.
Seeing this situation, how could Wang Chong not be worried and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, please take care of the dragon body. I will call the medical officer right now."
"No need." The Spirit King stopped him.
"But Your Majesty." Wang Chong wanted to say something else.
"I know my body well." The Spirit King has recovered a little, but his face is a little pale, "Let's get down to business."
"This, Your Majesty." Wang Manman looked worried, which showed King Ling was determined. He paused and then said: "In the current situation, I still feel that it is better to deploy some troops stationed in Dongjing. They are elite soldiers and have been battle-hardened for a long time. , you will be able to protect our country."
The Spirit King frowned: "The situation in Dongyi is very complicated. It is far from as simple as you think. There are many barbarian tribes. If there are no soldiers to guard them, there will be another turmoil. Then the previous integration efforts will be ruined. ."
Having said this, King Ling sighed and said: "No matter how we fight with the King of Qin, it is a national civil war, but foreign enemies are different. Once they enter the pass, all living beings will hang upside down and the world will overturn."
"After a hundred years of war, the people have been displaced and have suffered for a long time. We can no longer bear the disasters of foreign nations."
"I, as a monarch, cannot be the sinner even if I am defeated."
You must know how critical the current situation in Ling Kingdom is, but King Ling insists on not withdrawing the Dongjing garrison, which shows his heart to protect China.
Hearing what he said, Wang Chong had no choice but to do the next best thing and said tentatively: "In that case, it is better to transfer some of the garrison's grain, grass and weapons to replenish the front line."
"This is to tear down the east and make up for the west. It is also a drop in the bucket. The east mirror is thousands of miles away from here. The civilians escorted it. By the time it reached Caizhou, there was not much left because of the consumption on the road."
King Ling said, sighing slightly: "Don't mention the matter of Dongjing anymore, go and ask Cheng Ping to come over."
"This, yes." Wang Chong bowed and retreated.
Not long after, Cheng Ping entered the study. After he bowed, King Ling also handed the letter to him: "Take a look."
"Yes." Cheng Ping took two steps forward and took it respectfully. When he finished reading, he frowned, "Your Majesty, have our logistics supplies reached this point?"
"Yes." King Ling had no intention of hiding it from him, and said quietly: "The King of Qin is responsible for this."
This war has been prepared for several years. We have no chance of winning based on national strength alone. This is why I focused on taking the initiative to repel Murong Yan in the Battle of Caizhou. However, I used the wrong Murong Yan. "
There is no real meaning in saying this now. Cheng Ping didn't know how to answer, so he remained silent for a while.
King Ling glanced at him and continued: "This time, the reason why I asked Wei Guang to come back is, firstly, to test, and secondly, because I have decided to adopt your opinion of retreating to Ruizhou, so Liupan Mountain is no longer important."
"Yes, your majesty is wise." Cheng Ping said: "But when it comes to evacuating Caizhou, I have another plan."
"Oh?" King Spirit perked up a little and said, "Here comes the military advisor."
Cheng Ping said: "The king of Qin loves to cut off people's food routes when using troops. This time, he can use his own methods to attack others. After your majesty retreats, you can order five thousand elites to take off their armor, hide their weapons, and disguise themselves as common people. Living in the houses of Caizhou, once our army retreats and the King of Qin enters Caizhou, he will definitely use this as a place to store food and grass. When his army reaches Ruizhou, Caizhou behind will be empty. At that time, he will send five thousand The 'common people' attacked at night, and under the sudden attack, the Qin army left behind in Caizhou was defenseless, so they could burn their camp and cut off their food and grass."
"If the Qin army's rear is in chaos and supplies are cut off, they will retreat without fighting."
"In this way, the danger of the war situation may be resolved."
After he finished speaking, the Spirit King couldn't help but slap the table and said excitedly: "What a strategy!"
This strategy is indeed good, and Xiao Yuan will probably do this. After entering Caizhou, he will not hurt the people, make some repairs, and then continue to march eastward in an attempt to break Ruizhou again.
At that time, Caizhou will naturally be used as a place to store grain and grass, and the Ling army has retreated to the front line of Ruizhou, so it is unlikely that Xiao Yuan will leave a large number of troops in Caizhou.
After going through Cheng Ping's plan in his mind again, King Ling seemed to be in much better spirits. He also stood up and paced back and forth while saying, "Yes, yes, King Qin will definitely do this. This strategy can be implemented completely." , but these five thousand soldiers may have a narrow escape after attacking Caizhou. They must be those who dare to fight. The selection of generals is also a big problem."...
"General Liu Hong can be in charge." Cheng Ping suggested a suitable candidate.
"Well..." King Ling thought about it for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "I'll just ask Liu Hong to come over to the military advisor's office."
"Yes, I'll go right away." Cheng Ping bowed and excused himself.
Liu Hong was in Caizhou, so the news came quickly. When he learned that King Ling had summoned him, he didn't dare to neglect and hurried to the study.
He was courageous and loyal. He served successively as commander-in-chief of other departments, supervised five schools, and led elite men. He went forward in every battle, made many military exploits, and was named a partial general.
When he arrived at the study, he also lifted up his royal robe, knelt on one knee, cupped his fists and saluted, "Your Majesty, Liu Hong, I'm here to see you!"
"General, quickly excuse yourself." King Ling stepped forward and helped him up with both hands.
Liu Hong was frightened by the flattery and said hurriedly: "Why do you condescend your Majesty? I am so frightened."
"General, what are you talking about?"
The Spirit King said something first, patted his shoulder, and then sighed heavily.
Seeing him sighing helplessly, Liu Hong said: "Why are you sighing? Even if the enemy is strong, it doesn't matter. The worst is to fight to the death!"
"General." King Ling still had a worried tone: "You also know that the current situation is extremely unfavorable to our country. If we want to defeat the enemy, we must have a good strategy. Just now, the military advisor has just come up with a plan to defeat the Qin thieves. However, although the strategy is Good, but extremely dangerous..."
