Chapter 195
In Qin State, in Xianyang Palace, Ying Zheng threw the memorial in his hand to the ground and shouted angrily, "Where is Li Xin now?"

The shadow secret guard who came to report the letter replied tremblingly: "My lord, General Li Xin and General Meng Tian have retreated to Nanyang, where they are temporarily recuperating."

After a period of calm, Yingzheng has gradually calmed down a bit, and he also knows that Li Xin is not to blame for this failure, and Changping Jun can only be blamed.

Thinking of Lord Changping, Ying Zheng's suppressed anger showed signs of resurgence.

Since taking office, Mr. Changping and other members of the Chu family have helped him a lot, and Yingzheng has always trusted him.

Originally, when he decided to attack Chu, Yingzheng wanted to release him after Changping Jun persuaded him, but thinking of his achievements, he was temporarily transferred out, thinking that he would be transferred back after everything was settled.

Let him enter Chu this time, hoping that he can make a new contribution to the Qin State, so that he can be recalled back to the court in the future.

Unexpectedly, in the end, he got the news of Lord Changping's betrayal. As a king whose lifelong goal was to unify Zhuxia, he was actually betrayed by Lord Changping. Yingzheng's anger could no longer be suppressed.

Since taking office, Yingzheng got rid of Lao Ai and Lu Buwei successively, and took Qin's military and political power into his hands.

After that, South Korea and Wei were destroyed successively, and Zhao and Yan were also disabled.

It can be said that along the way, almost no setbacks have been encountered, and they are invincible.

In this attack on Chu, Ying Zheng also asked veteran generals Wang Jian and Meng Zhi for their opinions in advance, but they all said that 60 troops are necessary to conquer Chu.

But after these years of wars, Yingzheng felt that Qin's army was invincible, and there was no need to spend so many troops on Chu.

Therefore, when Li Xin proposed that only 20 troops would be needed to conquer Chu, Ying Zheng believed it, and assigned Meng Tian, ​​another up-and-coming famous general in the young and strong faction, to him.

But now, everything is over, and Li Xin's failure in defeating Chu Chudi, doesn't it mean that his decision-making is wrong?

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng overturned the desk in front of him again angrily, looked at the shadow guard in front of him and asked in a deep voice, "Where are the family members of Lord Changping and Lord Changwen? Capture them all."

The Shadow Secret Guard lowered his head and replied in a low voice: "Shortly after the army set off, Lord Changping sent a letter to take all his family members to Chen Ying. Now there is no one from Lord Changping's family in Xianyang."

Hearing this, Ying Zheng looked angrily at Zhao Gao, and asked in a deep voice, "Mr. Changping's family left Xianyang, why didn't Luo Wang report it?"

Zhao Gao bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, at that time Lord Changping hadn't shown any signs of rebellion, and it was not easy to use the net."

Yingzheng suppressed his anger. Lord Changping may have premeditated what he did. The problem now is that the Chu army cannot invade Qin, otherwise, all the hard work for so many years will be in vain.

After thinking for a while, Ying Zheng said, "Send an order to Li Xin and Meng Tian to guard Nanyang and prevent Chu's army from going north and attacking Nanyang."

The Shadow Secret Guard bowed and saluted: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Watching the Shadow Secret Guard leave, Ying Zheng turned to look at Zhao Gao who was beside him, and asked in a deep voice, "Where is General Wang Jian now?"

Zhao Gao bowed and replied: "The general has already retired and returned to his hometown, and returned to the fiefdom of Pinyang County."

Ying Zheng thought for a while, and said firmly to Zhao Gao: "Prepare the horse, I will go to Pinyang personally, and ask the general to come out of the mountain again and lead troops to attack Chu."

Zhao Gao cupped his hands and said, "No."

Early the next morning, Yingzheng rushed to Pinyang with his personal guards. I don't know what the two talked about, and finally invited Wang Jian, who had already returned home, to lead the army to conquer Chu.

After the news came out, the world was shaken again. Qin Guogang suffered a defeat, but he did not expect to send troops again without stopping.

Everyone in the world is familiar with the reputation of the veteran Wang Jian. Except for South Korea, the defeat and destruction of the other three countries are basically related to him.

Such a master of military strategist leads his troops to the expedition, no one dares not to take him seriously.

On the side of Chu State, they had just won the victory and were celebrating when they got the news. Not only did Lord Changping, who had just returned, be stupefied, but even King Chu Chu and General Xiang Yan were poured cold water over their heads.

Above the court hall, King Chu looked at the ministers below who were discussing a lot, and said in a deep voice, "Let's talk about it, how should we resist Wang Jian's army?"

When the ministers below heard the words, they all bowed their heads in silence.

Seeing this, Ling Chu roared angrily: "Aren't you all very thoughtful on weekdays? Why do you become dumb when it comes to critical moments?"

Standing in front, Lord Changping looked left and right, took two steps forward, bowed and said, "My lord, the Qin army is coming fiercely. If we want to stop the Qin army, we need help."

With a cold face, Ling Chu said in a deep voice: "I don't know if I need help? But now, where do we have help?"

Lord Changping didn't dare to be angry when he saw this. After all, he had just returned to Chu State and had no foundation in the court. Now he had to show his talents first and help Chu State resist the Qin army.

Otherwise, once the state of Chu is destroyed by the Qin army, with Qin Wang Yingzheng's temperament, the fate of a rebel like himself can be predicted.

Thinking of this, Lord Changping bowed his head again and reported: "We can send envoys to seek help from the Qi State. After all, once the Chu State is destroyed, the next target of the Qin State is the Qi State."

"At the same time, send another important person to Xiaoyao City to form an alliance with Xiaoyao City."

Hearing the words, Xiang Chu became angry again: "Qi State? It has always been one with Qin State, do you think they will take action?"

"As for Xiaoyao City, don't mention him to me again. If Qin Guo didn't call, I would have conquered Xiaoyao City sooner or later."

Seeing this, Song Yu took a few steps forward, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I think what Mr. Changping said is reasonable. Now we have to drive back the Qin army first. We will discuss other matters later."

Xiang Yan also took a few steps forward and said: "I also agree, even if they don't lend a helping hand, they must drag Xiaoyao City into the water. Once the Qin army sets their sights on Xiaoyao City, our chance will come."

When the ministers behind heard the words, they all spoke up one after another, urging the king of Chu to be sad.

Seeing this, Ling Chu angrily patted the armrest of the seat, looked at the ministers and said coldly: "In this case, I will leave it to Changping Jun and Ling Yin Songyu to go to Xiaoyao City to meet Li Chen. General Xiang will decide who will be selected on the other side of the country."

After speaking, he stood up, flicked his robe, and walked to the back.

Seeing this, the ministers could only kneel down one after another and shouted: "Farewell to the King!"

Until the figure of King Chu Chu disappeared in the hall, Xiang Yan, Lord Changping, and Song Yu raised their heads and looked at each other, and then sighed.

 Wake up and come back for the rest, including the two chapters owed by the 3rd!
