Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

How could there be a group of good officials gathered in this big Han country?

If he hadn't gained a full understanding of Li Baijiang's personality in these days, the second prince would have felt that this was simply bragging.

After a long while, the second prince couldn't help but said again: "Could it be that your big Han country is a country favored by the god Zeus?"

Li Baijiang laughed loudly, and said to the second prince: "You are wrong, there are no gods in our Great Han Kingdom, in fact, our Great Han Kingdom is completely controlled by our emperor one after another. Wrought out of war."

Hearing this, the second prince's heart suddenly moved, and he quickly said: "Can you tell us, what kind of outstanding victories did your Majesty the Emperor have in wars?"

Li Baijiang immediately said: "If you talk about other things, I may not be able to say it, but when it comes to your majesty's victory, heh heh." The victories over the years have been said so and so.

This said, it means that a day has passed.

Until late at night, the second prince was still fascinated by what he heard, and couldn't help expressing emotion: "This, is this really something a human being can do?"

The second prince was really fascinated.

Zhao Kuo has won so many brilliant victories in the past ten years, and many ways of winning have never been seen by the second prince. It simply opened the door to a new world.

It turns out that wars can still be fought like this!It turns out that there is such a reason for fighting!It turns out that all the process and results of the entire war can be counted before the war!The second prince rubbed his reddened eyes, and expressed emotion again.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, is he really a human?"

For the second prince, this Zhao Kuo is simply too strong!

Chapter 1145 This is the Qin State that was destroyed by the emperor of the Han State

For the second prince, he felt that the stories he heard were no longer like stories that happened to a human being.

This is simply something that can only be achieved by the possession of a god.

Faced with the second prince's emotion, Li Baijiang was obviously very useful, and smiled at the second prince: "You know?"Our Emperor, His Majesty, is so powerful!In fact, I can tell that you are also a patriot, and you are somewhat dissatisfied with the loss of the Seleucids to our big man.

But think about it, what kind of prince of yours is just a fledgling fledgling, how can he compete with our emperor?If you want me to say that he was able to escape from the hands of our emperor, he is already considered a pretty good talent.

So, I can also give you a suggestion here, or you should not leave at all, and stay in our Han country to work, anyway, the Seleucid Empire will be destroyed by our Han country sooner or later, you stay there Such a country definitely has no future! ;

Li Baijiang said these words, the expression on the second prince's face can be said to be quite exciting.

In all fairness, what Li Baijiang said is actually quite objective.

But the problem is, as the second prince, how could he betray the Seleucid Empire?He is recognized by everyone, and he is a popular candidate for the next emperor of the Seleucid Empire.

The second prince was silent for a moment, and could only show a smile uglier than crying, and said to Li Baijiang: "Li Baijiang's words are indeed very sincere, but I still need to think about it, you know, Seleucus and Dahan The distance between the countries is really too far. ;

Li Baijiang laughed loudly and said: "Far away?"No no no, not far at all.In the future, Seleucus and the Han Kingdom will be the same country, so how could it be so far away? ;

The second prince was so distraught that he stopped talking with Li Baijiang, but just found an excuse that he was tired and wanted to sleep and left.

Li Baijiang looked at the leaving figure of the second prince, his smile gradually became playful.

Suddenly, a person walked into the room, smiled at Li Baijiang: "How is it?" ;

Li Baijiang chuckled and said: "The second prince of the Seleucids was almost frightened out of his wits after hearing about His Majesty's deeds." ;

The visitor also laughed when he heard the words, and said: "Let me just say this, as long as it is a normal person, who can remain indifferent after hearing the deeds of His Majesty?" ;

Li Baijiang nodded and said: "This is also the reason, what should we do next?" ;

The visitor said: "Minister Mao's instructions have already come down. Next, you can take him for a stroll around the big cities like Xianyang and Luoyi. By the way, you can get a set of information from him and have a look at Seleucid." Is there a city as prosperous as ours in the empire? ;

Li Baijiang said with a smile: "Just the Seleucid Empire?"impossible. ;

The visitor shook his head and said, "Have you forgotten what His Majesty said?"We can't underestimate any country, especially a country like Seleucid. Do you know how big the territory of Seleucus is?Even the former Qin State was far inferior to the heyday of the Seleucid Empire when it was at its strongest. ;

Li Baijiang shrugged his shoulders and said: "Okay, don't tell me this. I was working hard in Yili City, but you want me to accompany this second foolish prince back all the way. To play so much, you say;

The visitor directly interrupted Li Baijiang: "Don't talk nonsense, Minister Mao already knew about your stinking behavior."He said, as long as you can handle the second prince, you can arrange a house in the imperial capital for you! ;

Li Bai's eyes lit up immediately: "Really?" ;

The visitor snorted: "Who is Minister Mao?"Apart from His Majesty and a few prime ministers in the Han Kingdom, who else must speak better than Minister Mao?If you don't believe in pulling it down, get someone else to do it! ;

Li Baijiang smiled, and instantly held the person's hand affectionately: "Don't, don't."Everyone is a good comrade in arms on the intelligence front for many years, why are you acting like this?That's enough, don't worry, I will definitely complete the task successfully! ;

The second prince didn't know that he had already been targeted by the Nightingale branch in Yili City as early as when he first entered the country.

Why?Because in the book "Intelligence Experience" written by Zhao Kuo himself and printed and distributed to all nightingales, he said: "Diplomatic missions are actually the most effective way of espionage in this era." ;

Therefore, the Nightingale branch in Yili City did not talk nonsense, and immediately sent someone secretly to follow up on the mission.

For a powerful organization like Nightingale that has successfully carried out countless secret intelligence activities in various countries in the past ten years, the second prince is simply an amateur among amateurs in terms of disguise and various details. Makes people want to laugh.

So the second prince soon became the target of Nightingale's attention, and then Nightingale immediately secretly took out the portraits of various senior officials and generals in the previous intelligence, and compared them.

This also speaks to the importance of Nightingale's preparations in advance. Mao Sui had interrogated the captured generals when there was no commander in Yili City, and sent people to draw almost all the important parts of the Seleucid Empire based on the descriptions of these captives. Portraits of people.

Although it is definitely impossible to restore these portraits to 100% like the photos, they can still be lifelike with the excellent painting skills of the painters.

In this way, when the Second Prince was still acting as an ordinary servant in Yili City, the nightingales in Yili City had already recognized his identity.

After discovering the identity of the second prince, the Nightingale Branch in Yili City was overjoyed, and immediately dispatched the second in command of the branch, who was also the most elite Nightingale spy in the branch, to join the escort team. The second prince started contact.

That's right, Li Jian and Li Baijiang are the people who were placed next to the second prince without anyone noticing that the Nightingale Branch in Yili City!

In the next few days, the second prince seemed to be shocked by Zhao Kuo's deeds and what Li Jian said before. Sitting in the carriage alone, he didn't know what to think about. Li Jian was also calm. He didn't go to the second prince either.

After the convoy arrived in Guanzhong, the road became wider and smoother, and the speed of progress was naturally greatly accelerated.

Then, Xianyang City arrived.

Everyone in the Seleucid Mission was shocked when they saw Xianyang City.

Afterwards, they all gasped and let out exclamations one after another.

; What a big city! ;

; This city is already comparable to Antioch City! ;

;No, I think it's even bigger than Antioch! ;

The second prince also stared blankly at Xianyang City in front of him, not only shocked but also shocked.

After a while, the second prince couldn't bear it anymore, and came to Li Jian again.

"Li Baijiang, is this the imperial capital you often tell me about?" ;

Li Jian looked at the second prince in front of him, and smiled mysteriously: "Guess what?" ;

The second prince was taken aback by what Li Jian said: "Isn't it?" ;

Li Jian patted the second prince's shoulder, and said with a smile in the Seleucid language (a fusion of Macedonian and Greek) that he has gradually become familiar with these days: "Young people are short-sighted. After all, you are from a foreign country, and you have no eyesight to see." It is also very normal.Let me tell you, this city of Xianyang is indeed one of the largest cities in our Great Han Kingdom, but the capital?Sorry, it really isn't. ;

After hearing Li Jian's words, not only the second prince, but even the Seleucids next to him were dumbfounded.

The second prince rubbed his eyes, and said in disbelief: "Such a big city is not the capital of Han Kingdom?" ;

Li Jian looked serious: "Yes, this city of Xianyang was the capital of the Qin State before, but didn't I tell you that before?"Qin State has long been destroyed by our Han State. ;

After hearing these words, the second prince's heart was undoubtedly hit hard again.

In the eyes of the second prince, this city of Xianyang looks almost the same as Antioch, the capital of the Seleucid Empire. Basically, it is definitely a big city of the same level.

From this point of view, the "Qin State" that has perished is probably as powerful as the Seleucid Empire. Even the Qin State was destroyed by the Han State, so what about the Seleucid Empire?

Although it was just an idea, this idea was like a huge rock, pressing down on the second prince for a while, making him a little out of breath.

At this moment, Li Jian suddenly reached out and patted the second prince's shoulder, which startled the second prince.

I saw Li Jian said with a smile: "Let's go, after I go in, I will take you to the old palace of the Qin State before Xianyang City."Hey, that will definitely open your eyes! ;

The second prince said in surprise: "The royal palace?"You can actually enter the palace? ;

Li Jian laughed: "Of course it can, my cousin works there, but you have to remember, after entering, you can only look at it, and you can't take things randomly."Otherwise, you are doomed, and I will also bury you with you! ;

The second prince nodded repeatedly. He really wanted to see what the legendary Qin Palace was like.

Later that day, Li Jian and the second prince quietly entered the palace city through a side door of Qin Palace.

Li Jian said to the second prince proudly: "Although this place has been conquered, it is not open to the common people. It belongs to one of the palaces of our emperor."How about it, isn't it majestic? ;

The second prince nodded perfunctorily, and kept looking at the surrounding buildings.

After walking through several palaces, the second prince's heart was also full of shock.

All along, the second prince has been very proud to think that only the Macedonian Greek civilization is the most outstanding in this world. Those ancient Egypt and ancient Babylon that have perished are rubbish, and the Macedonian Greek civilization is the world's number one civilization!

But at this moment, after witnessing the magnificence of the Great Qin Palace in front of him, the second prince's thoughts were greatly shaken.

The palace of Daqin, just like the creed that the Legalists have always believed in, talks about a cold face and selflessness, and talks about doing things in accordance with the rules.

This belief is reflected in the architectural style, that is, every building looks sharp and sharp, and there is a very strong and neat echo between the buildings. All the buildings in the entire palace city seem to be integrated into one, giving any Any outsider can bring a kind of unparalleled psychological oppression.

The second prince looked at it, suddenly felt a little out of breath, and stretched out his hand to support the stone pillar beside him.

Looking at this scene, Li Jian murmured in his heart, wouldn't this Seleucid Hu be just so frightened and stupid?

Of course, Li Jian didn't forget his mission, he purposely smiled, and said to the second prince: "How about it, how is it compared to your Seleucid city of Antioch?" ;

The second prince was speechless for a moment.

The Seleucid Palace in Antioch City is actually not in the same style as the Great Qin Palace. This is like Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong. The aesthetics of Eastern and Western civilizations are different. If you insist on comparing them, frankly speaking, you can’t tell the difference.

However, the second prince also knew very well that the Daqin Palace is at least on par with the Seleucid Palace in all aspects, and it is even much better in terms of majesty.

This further confirmed what the second prince had in mind before, that the so-called Qin State is definitely a powerful empire that can keep pace with the Seleucid Empire!

Then, the thoughts that had been suppressed by the second prince for a few days before popped up again.

The powerful Qin Empire, which was able to keep pace with the Seleucid Empire, was destroyed by the Great Han Kingdom, so how strong should the Great Han Kingdom be?

Looking at the majestic main hall of the Qin Palace in front of him, the second prince was silent for a long time.

Just by imagining a little bit, you can know how extraordinary the momentum of this hall was back then, and how high-spirited the owner of this hall was, but now

Will the main hall of the palace of the Seleucid Empire become like this in the future?

Finally, Li Jian reached out and poked the second prince: "The sun is going down, we should go back." ;

Only then did the second prince come back to his senses, and followed Li Jian's footsteps silently, walking towards the outside of the palace gate.

It wasn't until he left the palace and was about to return to the mission station that the second prince suddenly asked Li Jian a question.

; How long did the war between Han and Qin last? ;

Li Jian laughed and said: "Seven or eight months." ;

Is this answer correct?Of course it is.The war to destroy Qin launched by Zhao Kuo was indeed such a long time, and it may even be shorter.

But the question is, was Qin State destroyed in one go?of course not.It was Zhao Kuo who weakened Qin through many wars in more than ten years, and finally achieved the result of destroying Qin in one fell swoop.

But of these, Li Jian would naturally not tell the second prince.

He just wants to give the second prince a feeling that the power of the Han Kingdom is so incomparable!

Chapter 1146 The second prince is getting more and more shocked

Sure enough, after hearing Li Jian's words, the second prince's body trembled violently.

It took less than a year for such a powerful Qin Empire to be destroyed?

It's also horrible.

The second prince sighed, and said, "I suddenly understand why our Seleucid Empire lost to your Han emperor so quickly before."

Yes, the second prince has figured it out.

Assuming that both the Great Qin and the Seleucid Empire belonged to countries with a strength of 100 points, then the strength of the Great Han Kingdom that destroyed the Great Qin was at least 200 points, or even as much as 400 or 500 points.

Under such a comparison of strength, the second prince was only a governor of the east of the Seleucid Empire at that time, and the power he controlled was pitifully small, so what would he use to fight against His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Kingdom?

Losing is normal!Li Jian looked at the second prince in surprise, and said after a while, "I never thought you'd be quite flexible."

The second prince shook his head helplessly, and said to Li Jian: "General Li Bai, you may not know that I already have some regrets now, whether it was the right thing to come here or not."

Li Jian asked curiously, "What do you mean by that?"

The second prince exhaled, and said: "What I mean is, every time I get to know your Great Han Kingdom better, I realize that your Great Han Kingdom is actually so terrifying! This really hurts my self-confidence, and I don't care I know how our Seleucid Empire will be able to win if we really meet your Great Han Kingdom on the battlefield in the future!"

After listening to the second prince's words, Li Jian murmured in his heart, darling, the second prince is quite easy to be fooled.

However, Li Jian agreed with the second prince's words, so he patted the second prince's shoulder with a smile and said, "To tell you the truth, it's not just that you don't know, even a son of a big Han like me Min, I don't even know what kind of magical soldiers and generals I need to be able to defeat the soldiers and horses of the Han Kingdom led by His Majesty the Emperor himself!"

In fact, in the past so many years, as a nightingale, Li Jian spent most of his time working underground, and this expedition to the west was the first time he went to war with Zhao Kuo.
