Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

On the fifth day after the information from South Korea appeared in different people's books, the credentials from South Korea officially appeared in the Qin court. Regarding the credentials from South Korea, the entire Qin court was shocked. of.

Although there was a situation in the past when the Wei State invited itself to be a vassal under the pressure of the Wei State, after all, the Wei State had already declined, and its presence in the world had long been reduced to the lowest level. It was natural for it to become a vassal state of the Wei State. It doesn't have much influence, but South Korea is different. That's South Korea.

Although South Korea is really nothing compared to the Qin State, in the world, South Korea is still one of the seven countries in the world. It occupies the hinterland of the Central Plains and has a population of nearly two million. It is a country that can pull out an army of hundreds of thousands. It is a country that once fought with The six countries are collectively known as the seven great powers.

What does it mean that South Korea invites itself to be a vassal of Qin? How could the five kingdoms of Qi, Zhao, Chu, Wei and Yan not think about it? No matter how much Korea declines, it was once on the same level as them, and it once stood side by side in this world.

In the inner court of Xianyang Palace, King Qin Zhengduan occupied the main seat. Prime Minister Xiong Qi on the left and General Wang Jian, the two most important civil and military ministers whom King Qin relied on for his government, sat on the left and right respectively. The position in front of King Qin's writing case was reserved for Yang Ming.

Yang Ming, the guard captain, once again appeared in the inner court of Xianyang Palace.

"What do the three of you think of South Korea's acceptance of land as a vassal?" King Qin, who had not discussed a result in the court, asked the three important ministers in front of him who he trusted most for various reasons.

"Your Majesty, it is a good thing for South Korea to accept the land and become its vassal. Although Qin may not be able to get any benefits from it, at least it can test the attitude of other countries towards Qin through this matter." Xiong Qi was the first to speak.

"General, what do you think?" Of course, Qin Wangzheng could understand Xiong Qi's explanation. However, he was already planning a war to destroy South Korea. If he accepted South Korea's invitation to become a vassal, he would be a vassal within a few years. , King Qin really has no reason to take action against South Korea.

Therefore, even though what Xiong Qi said was reasonable, Qin Wangzheng still hesitated, so he asked General Wang Jian.

"Back to your Majesty, what Prime Minister Zuo said is not unreasonable. It is not difficult to destroy South Korea. However, if the destruction of South Korea causes panic among the countries, so that the countries that originally have their own agendas will put down their barriers because of fear, they may even reunite. The possibility of manipulation will ultimately be a big trouble for Qin." Wang Jian also answered cautiously.

The most difficult part of Qin's battle to conquer the six kingdoms was the first battle to destroy the country. No matter how the wars were fought in the past, they only involved attacking cities and seizing land, and did not involve destroying the country. They could also use the conflicts between the countries to unite. The strategy of vertical and horizontal divisions and disintegration.

However, once it comes to the battle to annihilate the country, the situation is different. In the battle of the capital of Zhao, Qin already had the advantage, but it was precisely because Qin had formed an advantage over Zhao that was enough to destroy the country that Wei and The two countries of Chu and Chu could not sit still and stood by in the Battle of Changping, and ended up personally. This was the reason why Qin failed in the battle of Zhaodu.

And now if Korea is destroyed, Qin will also have to face similar problems. South Korea is already weak and cannot be weak anymore. It can be said that Qin wants to destroy South Korea with little difficulty, but after destroying The series of problems that South Korea will face in the future are the most troublesome among them.

When Korea was destroyed, Zhao, Chu and other countries felt sad and empathetic, and then the pressure from Qin to destroy the country led to unity among them, then it was a big loss for Qin, and it was completely outweighed by the gain. things.

On the contrary, if the Qin State accepts South Korea's invitation to become a vassal, and South Korea becomes a tributary of the Qin State, the matter will not be so intense. It may be possible to test the reaction of the other countries through this incident. If the other countries do not respond, Qin will The country can continue to infiltrate South Korea in the next few years until it completely controls South Korea. If other countries react violently, Qin will still have room to retreat.

Therefore, in Wang Jian's opinion, it is completely feasible for the Qin State to accept South Korea's invitation to become a vassal. At least compared to directly destroying South Korea, it is obviously more beneficial.

Hearing the answers from Xiong Qi and Wang Jian, Qin Wangzheng was not surprised. He, Qin Wangzheng, could also see the reason. However, a thousand years was too long and he only had to seize the day. Could it be that Qin really wanted to invite vassal ministers because of South Korea? Will the plan to destroy Korea be postponed?

In his heart, Qin Wangzheng still preferred to destroy Han, but because of the defeat of Feiji in the battle against Zhao that he personally planned, Qin Wangzheng could not help but be a little more cautious.

The disastrous defeat of the Qin army in Feidi had a huge impact on Qin Wangzheng. At that time, he had just taken charge of the government, and he was very high-spirited and wanted to display his grand ambitions. However, the corpses of hundreds of thousands of Qin soldiers in Feidi directly made him recognize it. Clear reality.

Since then, the King of Qin has become more cautious in his decision-making. His Majesty, King of Qin, is naturally talented as a king, but his strongest point is his ability to assess the situation and adapt to changes. This is a man who knows how to reflect and He is not a king who shows off his strength, but a king who will face up to his mistakes and improve himself through them.

Therefore, even though Qin Wangzheng wanted to destroy Han even more, in the current situation, he still let himself listen to the opinions of Xiong Qi, Wang Jian, and Yang Ming.

However, after hearing the opinions of Xiong Qi and Wang Jian, Qin Wangzheng was almost certain that accepting South Korea's invitation to become a vassal was a better choice. As for Yang Ming, the same was probably true, especially from the intelligence network established by Zhao Gao Among them, Qin Wangzheng already knew that Han Fei's sister, the Korean princess Honglian, had a close relationship with Yang Ming. Yang Ming had more reasons not to support the destruction of Han, but Qin Wangzheng still asked Yang Ming: "Captain of the Guards." What do you think about this matter?"

"I believe that Han can be destroyed." Yang Ming replied slowly, giving an answer that was completely beyond Qin Wangzheng's expectations.

In Qin Wangzheng's understanding, Yang Ming had more reasons than Xiong Qi and Wang Jian to support Qin's acceptance of South Korea's acceptance of land as a vassal. But now Yang Ming has said such a thing that even Qin Wangzheng himself has doubted whether it is reasonable. s answer.

"Reason." Qin Wangzheng asked.

"Time, although there are various reasons for testing, the time cost is too great. To destroy a country, war is only the first step. There are more things to follow, and the time required will only be more. As for the column State-owned enterprises may form a synergy again because of the Korean incident. To be honest, the defensive side will always have an advantage over the attacking side." Yang Mingdao.

It is really boring to let the people in South Korea fight internally, and the internal fighting of those people will only waste South Korea's manpower and material resources, and those manpower and material resources belong to Qin.

As for Honglian, her identity means that she is destined to suffer the pain of national subjugation. Rather than letting her be helpless in the internal fighting in South Korea, it is better to put an end to it. As for the pain of national subjugation, Yang Ming can also heal it as soon as possible. .

Moreover, there is no problem for Xiong Qi and Wang Jian to say so, but if Yang Ming also supports the preservation of Korea, there will be problems. The relationship between Yang Ming and South Korea, especially because of Mingzhu and Honglian, is too deep. If Ming had the same attitude as Xiong Qi and Wang Jian, it would inevitably lead to some associations with Qin Wangzheng, and those associations would definitely be unfavorable to Yang Ming.

For many things, kings do not need evidence at all, they just need to think it is true.

Although Qin Wangzheng is an extraordinary king, and he will be able to become the emperor of the ages in the future, he is still a king after all, and it is impossible for him to transcend the cognition formed based on this identity. It has nothing to do with wisdom, but only human nature. That’s all.

"Destroy Han?" Qin Wangzheng pondered. He was surprised by Yang Ming's determination in this matter. However, it was precisely because of this that it was more in line with what a person of Yang Ming's age should do.

Moreover, through this incident, it at least proves that Yang Ming at least does not have such strong selfish motives when it comes to dealing with South Korea, and is really planning for Qin.

"It is better to postpone the destruction of South Korea for a few more years. The benefits of accepting South Korea as a vassal now outweigh the disadvantages. The widow and the Qin State are not short of these years. Moreover, these few years will also allow us to free up more energy to weaken Zhao State." Qin Wangzheng said steadily.

South Korea has never been qualified as an enemy of Qin, but it can become a tool for Qin to test other countries. Although Qin is strong now, if all countries can work together, Qin will still have opponents. Therefore, regarding South Korea, King Qin I still feel that it is better to be more stable in politics.

Moreover, Qin State has not had nothing to do in the past few years. Although Qin Wangzheng believed that Zhao State would have a major disaster in the next few years, Qin State still could not give up its strategy of continuously weakening Zhao State in the past few years. The State of Zhao was exhausted and had no time and energy to recuperate. This national policy of the State of Qin had been going on for several years, and the effect was pretty good.

"Your Majesty." Seeing that Qin Wangzheng had made up his mind, Xiong Qi and Wang Jian naturally supported this opinion. As for Yang Ming, of course there was no reason to object.

However, if this is the case, Yang Ming will inevitably have to do something in it, because now the Korean script has developed on the original track, and Yang Ming, who was captured by Honglian, does not want Honglian to marry again. Such a disgusting plot as Ji Wuye.

However, with what happened at Snow Clothes Castle back then, if Yang Ming ran to South Korea without orders, the matter would not be justified. Fortunately, Yang Ming now has more means. If he wants to deal with Honglian, he may not be able to do it. You need to visit Korea in person.

As Yang Ming thought about it, he had already made up his mind. However, Yingge, who had been working outside all year round, had to be busy again this time.

Thinking of this, Yang Ming felt somewhat unbearable. Yingge had been working outside for many years.
