Zheng Zhu was naturally overjoyed when he heard that, and immediately stood up and saluted: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Now that he got Qi Wangjian's consent, Zheng Zhu naturally said goodbye happily, and hurried out of the palace. After all, he had to seize the time to announce the good news to Handan.
After the elated Zheng Zhu left the palace, Hou Sheng finally couldn't help but said, "Why did your lord agree to Zhao's request just now? This is obviously just Zhao's plan to slow down the army."
In fact, from the very beginning, the king and ministers of the Qi State made up their minds to collect money and not do anything, just to get a wave of money from the people of Zhao State and then refuse to agree to anything, and continue to beat Zhao State.
Anyway, after this battle, Zhao Guo, the overlord, fell apart. How long would it be better not to kill Zhao Guo at this time?
It was precisely because of this that Hou Sheng couldn't understand why Qi Wangjian had such a change.
Qi Wangjian took a look at Hou Sheng, couldn't help sighing, and said: "Of course I know that this is Zhao Guoren's plan to slow down the army, but the problem is..."
When Qi Wangjian said this, he picked up the secret report in his hand and gestured to Housheng, and then said helplessly: "Xianyang City has been breached by Li Mu six days ago, including King Qin Chu and Qin State Prime Minister Lu Buwei. All the high-ranking officers of the Qin State fell into the hands of Li Mu."
"What?" Hou Sheng's body shook violently, and his face suddenly turned pale.
Chapter 782 Caught off guard (first update)
June 254, 7 BC.
On this day, the main battlefield outside Suiyang City remained very calm. The camp of the Allied Forces of the Four Nations surrounded Suiyang City in three directions, east, west and south, like a large circular arc.
On the north side of Suiyang City and in the city, countless red military flags of Zhao State were fluttering in the wind, and they were not inferior in terms of momentum.
It has been more than two months since the two sides have confronted each other on this plain. Judging from the current situation, it seems that this confrontation will continue, and it is not known when it will end.
As the most powerful and recognized main force among the Allied Forces of the Four Nations, the camp of the Qin Army was naturally placed in the center of the camp of the Four Nations, while the other three countries were separated on the left and right sides of the Qin Army.
Everyone has no opinion on this point. After all, the hundreds of years of conquest and melee have taught the Huaxia people a truth, that is, the strong will always be respected in this world.
That being the case, what is it for the powerful Qin army to enjoy some small preferential treatment?
On this day, the chief generals of the Qin army, Wang Yan and Wang Ling, were sitting in the tent, discussing the military situation with two other young Qin generals.
One of these two young generals was named Wang Jian, and the other was named Wei Liao. The positions of the two were only under Wang Lu's mausoleum, and they belonged to the third and fourth figures of the main force of the Qin army.
As the saying goes, gold always shines.Since he made a great contribution to suppressing the rebellion in the Huayang Lord Michen's rebellion, Wang Jian's official position began to rise like a rocket, and he finally entered the top ranks of the Qin Army as he wished.
On the other side, Wei Liao's way of making a fortune is different from Wang Jian's.
Although Wang Jian was once very close to Lu Buwei, he is a member of the Wang clan after all, and the Wang clan now has two generals in the military, Wang Yan and Wang Ling, and they are not afraid of Lu Buwei at all, so Wang Jian is not Lu Buwei's people.
But Wei Liao was different, everyone knew that Wei Liao often came and went to the mansion of Lu Buwei, the Prime Minister of Qin State, Wu Chengjun, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was Lu Buwei's spokesperson in the army.
Perhaps it was because of this that the young Wei Liao was obviously not very popular with the other three generals of the Wang family, and Wei Liao was also a sensible person. He had always been taciturn in various military meetings, rarely Post what opinion.
The chief general Wang Lu glanced at Wang Ling, and then said in a questioning tone: "Today, the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms sent people to urge us, hoping that we can dispatch troops earlier and fight the Zhao army as soon as possible. After defeating Zhao's army, we may be able to capture Handan City before winter. What do you think?"
Lieutenant General Wang Ling has a very obvious scar on his face. This is a commemoration from the last time he fought against Li Mu. This scar made this seemingly calm general look a little more hideous out of thin air. Even the words that he said seemed to carry a hint of anger that seemed to be there.
"Hmph, Han, Chu, Wei, the people of the three kingdoms are simply blindly optimistic. You must know that we are facing a total of 35 main forces of the Zhao army. How can we win so easily? I think it was in Changping back then."
It seems that because some taboos were mentioned, Wang Ling immediately closed his mouth after waking up.
But everyone present was not stupid, and they all understood what Wang Lingchen meant.
In the Battle of Changping six years ago, the Qin army, which dispatched a total of 60 troops, was defeated by the 40 Zhao army who also rushed out in Changping. It is still in the minds of everyone in Qin. shameful shame.
At that time, the Qin army swept across the world, and ruled all kinds of dissatisfied with the most powerful army in the world. With the most powerful army in the world, and the recognized No. 1 general in the world at that time, Wu Anjun Baiqi was in command, but he still did not win. Zhao Jun at that time.
However, the current Allied Forces of the Four Nations are much worse than the Qin Army back then in terms of numbers and combat effectiveness. It is simply a gap between heaven and earth. At least Wang Ling himself thinks so. Under such circumstances, Wang Ling can I don't think the Allied Forces of the Four Nations can defeat Zhao Jun very easily.
So Wang Ling immediately said: "In my opinion, we still have to wait until the people of Qi go south smoothly before launching an attack on Zhao's army in Suiyang. At that time, the Allied Forces of the Five Kingdoms will respond back and forth to defeat Zhao. It is not difficult for the people of the country."
"As for Handan City, as long as the Zhao army can be defeated, Handan City will be in the bag sooner or later. What does it matter if it is occupied a few months earlier or later? Anyway, even if Handan City is occupied, it will be impossible in the end. To become the territory of Daqin, the goal of Daqin should still be in Hedong County and Jinyang County."
Wang Yan nodded thoughtfully, then glanced at Wang Jian again and said, "Wang Jian, what's your opinion?"
Wang Jian thought for a while, then said in a deep voice, "General, I think General Wang Ling's words are very reasonable."
Wang Jian didn't say much, because Wang Jian knew very well that Wang Yan's solicitation for advice was actually just a show. As a descendant of the Wang family, Wang Jian knew very well the reason to give face to his elders.
Wang Yan turned his head and glanced at Wei Liao, who had been silent like a sculpture, and then directly made a decision: "In this case, let's not fight for now. When those guys come to urge me next time, I will Tell them it's not their time, and let them hold on a little longer."
As he said that, a smile appeared on the corner of Wang Lu's mouth again, and he said, "Anyway, in the current situation, we are stationed here, and we don't need to consume any food and grass from Daqin, so why not do it?"
For a moment, the handsome tent was filled with relaxed laughter.
Of course, there are reasons why several generals of the Qin State were so relaxed.
Not long ago, the Qin army had just received information that the Qi army's attack on Dong'a City was progressing quite smoothly. A take down.
At that time, the Qi army can go south and directly cut off the back of the Zhao people, and encircle Suiyang City with the other four-nation coalition forces, leaving the main force of Zhao with no way to go to the sky or enter the earth.
Wang Lu thought for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "These days, you remember to let the scouts keep an eye on it, and don't let the main force of Zhao Guo retreat secretly."
Wang Lu felt that Lian Po, the leader of the Zhao Kingdom on the opposite side, was definitely not stupid. As a famous general, Lian Po would definitely be aware of the plan of the Five-Nation Allied Forces. If he still doesn't know how to make appropriate choices afterwards, then Lian Po is not worthy of being called a general.
What's more, in Suiyang City, there is still the world-famous King Zhao. Wang Lu is very sure in his heart that Lian Po will not let that King Zhao fall into danger.
At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps followed by a breathless voice came into the commander's tent: "General, urgent report from Xianyang!"
After a pause, the captain of Wang Lu's personal guard outside the account said in a more emphatic tone: "It's the highest level of emergency report!"
"The highest level?" The expressions of the four Qin generals in the big tent changed immediately when they heard this.
You must know that emergency reports of the highest level are actually rarely sent out.Usually, such an urgent report would only be sent when it was related to the fate of the country or similar key events happened.
Now Suiyang City is clearly calm, but there is an urgent report of the highest level, what does this mean?
Wang Yan stood up almost immediately, and shouted: "Hurry up and bring in the urgent report!"
So a moment later, the urgent letter arrived in Wang Lu's hands.
Wang Yan couldn't wait to open the envelope and wax, took out the silk paper inside, and read it carefully.
As soon as he finished reading the above content, Wang Yan's face changed drastically, and he slammed his fist on the desk in front of him, and said in a broken voice, "This is impossible!!!"
The few generals present knew something was wrong when they saw Wang Lu's appearance, and Wang Ling, who had the best relationship with Wang Lu, immediately said, "General, what happened?"
Wang He took a deep breath, clenched his fist with his right hand until the knuckles creaked and turned white. After a long time, he slowly said: "Li Mu has already broken through Xianyang City, and the king and most of the ministers have fallen into Li Mu's hands. in hand."
"What?" As soon as Wang Lu said these words, all the Qin people present changed their expressions, and they couldn't believe what they heard.
Wang Jian couldn't help but said: "Before going to the battle, Guanzhong has already prepared a lot of defenses, and Xianyang City has a full [-] troops stationed here. It will take at least half a year to conquer, and Li Mu has no more than [-] to [-] cavalry at most, how can he take Xianyang City?"
What Wang Jian asked was actually the answer that all the Qin generals present wanted to know.
