Although this battle was a great victory, the most astute person in the Yue Kingdom, the Prince of Yue Kingdom, Wang Zheng, was nowhere to be found.
This is the biggest oversight in this battle. Wang Zheng is the most shrewd and dangerous person in the Yue Kingdom. Moreover, he is the most qualified person to sit on the throne of Yue Kingdom.
What Liu Wenqin was afraid of was that if Wang Zheng escaped and took away more than a thousand soldiers, including General Wang Ke, the two most influential people in the Yue Kingdom, they would escape to the islands overseas.
For Qin, it is a threat.
It is a threat from the coast, just like the Japanese pirates, provoking Qin's coastal areas.
Besides! There are permanent residents of Yue State on the islands of Yue State. It would be a very difficult matter to force them to become islands.
…
Later, after Qin's army captured Yue, Liu Wenqin did not stop and continued to lead the front army to destroy Wu's troops with the troops of Yue.
Huo Ji, of course, did not just guard the three-acre area east of the Yangtze River, but personally led an army of 30,000 to attack the other side of the Wu Kingdom.
In order to disperse the entrenched troops of the Wu State, they arrived, mobilized the entire army to attack one place, and defeated them one by one.
Therefore! Two months later, Liu Wenqin led an army to destroy Wu. Put down the rebellion between Wu and Yue in the south. It can be regarded as taking back the original territory of Wu Kingdom.
It’s finally returned to its original owner!
In order to avoid riots in the territories of Wu and Yue, Liu Wenqin and Qin Zi led a large army to guard the two countries to prevent the old ministries of the two countries from secretly stirring up trouble.
certainly! It was also to frighten Xiao Xiao, so that the ministers of Wu and Yue and the former dynasty would not dare to make any mistakes and rebel secretly. Liu Wenqin was so cruel that he killed all the important ministers of the two countries who were dissatisfied with Qin at one time.
the second year!
In the eighth year of Qin, it was also June. After recuperating, the Qin army became more elite, with strong combat power and high momentum.
The Qin State's army suddenly expanded from more than 700,000 to 900,000.
Its soldiers were recruited according to the Qin military system. After nearly a year and six months of training, the sword of the Qin army became sharper and sharper.
and! Under one and a half years of governance, the scenery of each state is flourishing. With the emergence of new industries and new crops, Dongfang Yu selected and appointed talents and sent them to various places to let talented people govern the states, counties and counties. The whole Qin country was prosperous.
At this time, the capital of Qin was extremely quiet, with all the ministers in their respective positions and performing their duties.
Zhang Yi, Hu Yong, Zhuge Xuanyu, etc., these ministers who had performed well in the local area, were also secretly dispatched to the capital by him.
certainly! The transfer order was not done by Dongfang Yu. It was even said that Dongfang Yu himself was kept in the dark. The people who summoned the ministers back to the capital were the ministers of the Qin State, Tian Ping, Xu Meng, Pei Hao, Shang Haibo and others.
Prime Minister Zuo's Mansion!
The ministers who came back from various states asked Tian Ping to gather them in the mansion.
Returning to the people of the capital of Qin, the right prime minister Wang Su, the military counselor Xu Meng, the general of the expedition to the west Bai Qi, the general Li Jing, the Liwu general Li Xiaozhi, the national protector general Hu Xiaoyue, the commander of the imperial army (Wuhou) Yu Wenhu.
The other six ministers and deputy ministers were all gathered together.
The Prime Minister's Mansion, a room full of ministers.
Prime Minister Tian Ping sits in the main hall. The first person under him is Xu Meng, followed by the civilian Wang Su and the military Bai Qi.
And Zhuge Xuanyu, after returning from the mission, also asked Dongfang Yu to be appointed as an official and powerful censor, and to control the censor's platform.
After the reform, the imperial censors of Qin State have withdrawn from the ranks of the three princes. The so-called three ministers, the Grand Sima, the Imperial Censor, and the Prime Minister were all abolished.
"Everyone is coming!" Tian Ping's voice slowly sounded in everyone's ears, and soon! His eyes swept over everyone's bodies.
good! All the ministers who should come, ministers with status, have come.
Those who come are naturally discussing important matters.
"Prime Minister, just say it! Now our Great Qin has occupied half of the world and ten states, and now! General Liu Wenqin has completely destroyed Wu and Yue in one battle!"
"The power of the world and the ability to unify the world belong only to our king and our Qin State. And! With the current national power, territory, and influence of our Qin State, with our great strategy, we, the king, will establish our country and ascend to the throne of the Ninth Five-Year Plan."
"I, the King of Qin, should be the emperor since I am a young king!" The time has come. Yang Xiu had originally intended to let the King of Qin become the emperor. At this time, he could finally boldly propose it.
If we talk about it before, Dongfang Yu proclaimed himself emperor, which was premature, inconsistent with God's will, disobedient to the people, and disrespectful to the emperor. But now, the only one who conquers the world is the King of Qin, and he is the one everyone expects.
In addition, the royal family is in danger, and the Wu Kingdom is facing collapse and is in danger! On the bright side, the benevolent emperor still seems to be the common master of the world, but! Secretly, in fact, it is already unworthy of its name.
How can a monarch who makes low ministers stand up and cannot even give the most basic orders and display his majesty can still be called a monarch?
That's a puppet! Just a puppet at the mercy of others!
"Master Yang is right, I, the king of Qin, should be the emperor! How can such a small king be worthy of the majesty of our Qin monarch?" A group of generals also chattered and started discussing.
In the same way as Tian Ping's thoughts, Dongfang Yu is not worthy of his status as a king. Only the Nine-Five Lord can be worthy of his status.
"But those of us who are ministers have given our advice to the king several times, but the king has always avoided it and always paid attention to it later... I am afraid..." Pei Yuanqing said a key question.
Hahaha!
Tian Ping laughed loudly and asked everyone, "You guys!"
"Do you really think that the king only wants to be a small king and not an emperor?"
this……
Everyone was speechless.
after all! Dongfang Yu led the Qin State to conquer the south, the north, and the east and the west, and then conquered the current territory of the Qin State.
Isn’t it just to one day unify the world and achieve unparalleled hegemony?
"Prime Minister, if this is the case, why does the king always avoid it?" a minister asked.
"Please give me your instructions, Prime Minister!"
All the ministers knelt down and worshiped.
"In the seventh year of Qin Dynasty, in order to conquer Chen State and Chu State, our army's domestic output was extremely large. In a short period of time, it also consumed a lot of luck. Moreover! The two major countries entrenched in the south, Wu State and Yue State, if not If you get rid of it, it will be a serious problem."
"Therefore! Your Majesty, your Majesty, has always been evading the issue of becoming emperor."
The one who knows Dongfang Yuxin is Tian Ping!
"Now that the worries have been eliminated, we can admonish the king and ascend to the ninth position."
…
Everyone was stunned and immediately understood.
"I will wait to remonstrate with the king and wait for the emperor to succeed to the throne."
This time! There are Xu Meng, Tian Ping, Bai Qi, etc., who are the leaders of the country's important ministers. Naturally, they are not afraid of those who are making noises.
At this time, Dongfang Yu had no idea that the group of people under his command had actually begun to make preparations for his ascension to the throne.
But he himself had already flown his heart to the court of Wu Kingdom.
When the world is at peace, only by destroying the Wu Dynasty can the world be unified.
