Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

But when people get old, they will have more scruples, and they will become more stable, and their thinking will be more comprehensive.

So Pang Nuan also went through some comprehensive and prudent thinking before taking over the position of deputy general.

First of all, anyone who is not blind can see that Zhao Dan attaches great importance to Li Mu, and they all know that in the next two to thirty years, the entire military circle of Zhao State will be Li Mu's stage.

Then, Li Mu himself didn't have much malice towards Pang Nuan's Gongzu faction, and the two parties even joined forces on certain issues to suppress the arrogance of the commoner faction.

In the end, Pang Nuan was already very old, and he might really die at some point.It would be too stupid to provoke Li Mu, an enemy who is destined to have decades of glory, for the Pang family before his death.

After figuring out these factors, Old General Pang Nuan happily accepted this setting, and happily became Li Mu's deputy general in the battle to destroy Qin, and he did not have any complaints during the whole process, and was very conscientious.

So after Li Mu spoke, the old general also laughed, and the beard on his chin kept shaking with the opening and closing of his lips: "Governor, now Wang Jian's army has been defeated by our army, and the people of Qin are already in panic all day long. In at least one month, Xianyang City will be owned by our Zhao Kingdom!"

Of course, what Pang Nuan said was very confident.

In the previous battle, most of the 25 troops led by King Jian of Qin were wiped out and captured, and only a small part escaped from Shengtian and fled back to Xianyang.

Under such circumstances, even with the addition of the original defenders in Xianyang City, the Qin State can only use 6 to [-] people.

For Li Mu's more than 30 troops with high morale, the [-] to [-] Qin defenders who are in constant panic are nothing at all.

Li Mu nodded with a smile, and said to Pang Nuan, "From now on, it should be no problem to win Guanzhong."

Li Mu really hoped to win Guanzhong.

After all, from a geographical point of view, once Li Mu wants to open up the Western Regions for Zhao Guo in the future, then Guanzhong is Li Mu's best supply point.

Start from Guanzhong, then go west along the Hexi Corridor, cross the westernmost side of the Qilian Mountains, and you will be able to reach the legendary Western Regions.

Although Li Mu has mainly fought in the Central Plains for the past two years, Hu Yiwei of the State of Zhao has been passing on a steady stream of intelligence to Li Mu.

Through this information, Li Mu learned that the Yuezhi people who were defeated by him a few years ago and then beaten away by the Xiongnu and Wusun people had fled to the Western Regions and established a country called Da Yuezhi there.

In addition, Li Mu also knew that the Western Regions were actually a large piece of land, about the same size as the Zhao Kingdom before the Changping War, and maybe even larger.

In that land there are vast deserts, many oases, and small countries that are more numerous than the stars in the sky. The wars there are comparable to the land of the Central Plains in the Spring and Autumn Period. Almost every year, many countries are destroyed, and many New nations rose from the ashes.

Li Mu liked all this very much.

Because Li Mu knew very well that it was a paradise for cavalry.

Although Li Mu did not reject the feeling of leading an army of tens of thousands to destroy cities and villages, in the final analysis, Li Mu still preferred cavalry.

As a general and a commander in chief, Li Mu is like an extremely sharp sword, piercing through all the difficulties and obstacles in front of Zhao Dan and eliminating all monsters.

A general without an opponent is lonely, and Li Mu does not wish to be a general without an opponent.

So the existence of the Western Regions is really good.

As for the Xianyang City in front of him, it is actually out of the scope of Li Mu's consideration.

Li Mu didn't think about it, but the people in Xianyang City had to think about it.

Qin Wangchu looked at Wang Jian who was kneeling on the ground, with a very complicated light in his eyes.

"Wang Jian, do you know what kind of war you lost?"

Qin Wangchu's words were almost gnashing his teeth, and word by word came out from between his teeth.

Wang Jian didn't open his mouth to make any excuses for himself, but knelt there quietly, waiting for Qin Wangchu's final judgment on himself.

By now, any words seemed superfluous.

Right at the head of King Qin Chu, Lu Buwei watched all this coldly, not intending to save Wang Jian from the fire and water, let alone throw stones at Wang Jian.

Cai Ze hesitated to speak, but in the end he sighed insignificantly, and then gave up the desire to speak.

Up to now, it is no longer a question of whether to save Wang Jian, but a question of whether Qin can still exist.

Qin Wangchu didn't show any mercy to Wang Jian just because Wang Jian didn't speak up, he scolded Wang Jian very angrily, and finally gave an order in a deep voice: "Come here, let this defeated general be dragged to the widow!" Go down, be punished as a prisoner, and be imprisoned in death row, and all family members will be accepted as ministers and concubines!"

As soon as Qin Wangchu's words fell, there was a gasp in the hall.

Lay punishment is one of the five punishments in the Xia and Shang Dynasties, also known as cutting punishment, which is the punishment of amputating or cutting off the kneecap of the prisoner.

Sun Bin, a well-known ghost army teacher, was once tortured by his senior brother Pang Juan, and Sun Bin's name came from this, but later generations forgot his real name.

There is no doubt that this is definitely a form of torture.

A torture that makes life worse than death.

Coupled with the four words "pardon if not pardon", from now on Wang Jian's life can basically only be spent in a black prison.

Coupled with the fact that the whole family was demoted to slaves, basically Wang Jian's family was completely abolished from then on.

This is even more uncomfortable than killing Wang Jian directly, because it represents endless humiliation for a lifetime.

But no one pleaded for Wang Jian.

In fact, many people even took pleasure in other people's misfortunes and felt that it could be just a punishment, and most of this was because the king saw that the Wang clan had made many military exploits for the Great Qin over the years.

Of course, Wang Jian's punishment now is basically no different from a dead person, and it may even be worse than a dead person.

Even Wang Jian, who was already heartbroken, couldn't help shaking after hearing Qin Wangchu's words, but he still bowed slowly, and said in a hoarse voice that was almost inaudible: "Mr. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Wang Jian was dragged down.

Qin Wangchu stared at Wang Jian's leaving figure, and it seemed that he wanted to cut Wang Jian into pieces.

Of course Qin Wangchu could kill Wang Jian, but Qin Wangchu didn't want to let Wang Jian go so easily, he wanted to make Wang Jian's life worse than death!

After Wang Jian finally left, Qin Wangchu let out a sigh of relief as if he had avenged his great revenge, and then slowly said to the Qin officials in front of him: "Zhuqing, now let's talk about how to deal with Zhao It's about the army."

There was a sudden silence in the hall.

Lu Buwei rolled his eyes back and forth, stood up suddenly, and said: "Your Majesty, I have an answer."

Chapter 973 Transferring (Second Change)

As soon as Lu Buwei finished speaking, everyone's eyes fell on him in unison.

Qin Wangchu glanced at Lu Buwei, and said slowly: "What do you want to say, Mr. Wu Cheng?"

Although he knew that his own Daqin had half-stepped into the grave, and it seemed that it would be a matter of minutes, but the current Qin Wangchu seemed to be the drowning person floating in the water, even if what appeared in front of him was just a It was a light and fluffy straw, and he couldn't help but want to grab this straw with all his might.

Lu Buwei bowed his head in silence for a moment, he seemed hesitant, but finally spoke.

"My lord, now that Li Mu is coming so fiercely, it is extremely difficult for Xianyang City to continue to hold on. I dare you, please move the king and the queen to the Chengdu mansion together!"
