Chapter 759: Shameless people are invincible in the world! I am once again forced to do nothing and have no choice but to do anything!
May 2nd, the 14th year of King Qin’s reign.
A layer of dark clouds hangs over Xianyang City.
Even though it is midsummer, the atmosphere in the imperial study room of Xianyang Palace is as cold as ice!
The dusty Yao Jia stood in the middle of the royal study, facing Ying Zheng and bowing his hands in shame: "This is for your Majesty."
"The King of Yan firmly believes that the assassins Tian Guang and Jing Ke were not instigated by the State of Yan, but only committed the assassinations on their own initiative. This matter has nothing to do with the State of Yan."
Kui Zhuang responded angrily: "Absurd! "
"Tian Guang and Jing Ke are the principal and deputy envoys of the State of Yan."
"How can the actions of the envoys of the State of Yan not represent the State of Yan?"
“King Yan said this, aren’t you afraid of the ridicule of the world!”
Yao Jia said helplessly: "King Yan, you are indeed not afraid."
As soon as these words came out, the angry emotions of the officials of Qin became incoherent.
If you are shameless, you are invincible!
Yan Wangxi, who has already broken through the lower limit of morality in the Warring States Period, is fearless!
Wei Liao spoke angrily: "No matter whether King Yan admits that it was the leader of the Yan Kingdom who ordered the assassination of my king."
"It is an irrefutable fact that the envoys of Yan assassinated our king."
"The King of Yan must give me an explanation for the Qin no matter what!"
Yao Jia said coldly: "The King of Yan said , I am willing to repay my great Qin with 100,000 stones of food."
Wei Xiao was filled with anger and shouted solemnly: "The assassin made it clear in the main hall that he was ordered by Prince Dan of Yan."
" King Yan is unwilling to hand over Prince Yan’s pill?”
Yao Jia shook his head, and his voice became colder: "The King of Yan is unwilling!"
"The King of Yan said that everything the assassin Jing Ke said was slandering Prince Dan of Yan, and Prince Dan of Yan would never do such a thing. "
"The King of Yan said that Yan and Zhao have formed an alliance, and Prince Dan of Yan has joined forces with the Zhao army to attack our Qin Dynasty!"
The attitude of King Yan is very clear.
No matter how much evidence Da Qin could produce, Yan State would not admit that the assassin was sent by Yan State.
The State of Yan knew that the State of Qin would not believe it, but now that Yan and Zhao have formed an alliance and even formed a coalition, what could Qin State do if it did not believe it? !
Yan Guo is not afraid at all as he hugs his new thigh!
Ying Zheng slapped the case angrily: "It's not good for the King of Yan to bully others with swords!"
Lifting his robe, Yao Jia knelt down and bowed his head: "My lord, I have failed to live up to the king's expectations. Please, please Your Majesty, punish me!”
Ying Zheng’s anger ignited the anger of the entire Imperial Study Room!
"The Lord of Chang'an can get millions of dans of food for a single expedition for other countries. Now that the Yan Kingdom assassinated my king, he only wants to use 100,000 dans of food to make amends? This is not an apology, this is a humiliation! It is an humiliation for our great Qin!"< br>
"My maidservant, the mother of King Yan! How dare King Yan humiliate me, the Qin Dynasty, like this! I will never share the same fate with the Kingdom of Yan!"
"Your Majesty, the last general invites you to fight!"
How has Great Qin ever suffered such injustice in recent years?
More than half of the courtiers stood up and shouted for battle!
However, Wei Liao forcibly suppressed his anger and said solemnly: "Your Majesty Yan Ci, the anger in my heart is hard to calm down!"
"Of course, I ask your Majesty to think again!"
"I am the Qin Dynasty. We are in urgent need of time to recuperate and recuperate. Even this battle between Qin and Zhao has made it difficult for our country, the Qin Dynasty!” Qin, I, Da Qin, really have no way to cross Zhao State and attack Yan State directly.”
“If I, Da Qin, attack Yan by force, I am afraid that not only will I not be able to avenge the king, but my country, Da Qin, will be shaken.”
< br>
"I believe that the current battle between Qin and Zhao should be our priority, rather than specifically attacking Yan."
Wang Wan also took a deep breath, and said with anger in her eyes: "I agree! "
"The Lord humiliated me and I will die!"
"However, if Yan and Zhao join forces now, it will be difficult for us, Qin, to win."
“I would like to ask your Majesty to be patient and take the initiative to lobby the State of Yan and say that he will not pursue this assassination, so as to ask the State of Yan to stop his troops.”
"When our Qin Dynasty regains some national strength, I am willing to go out in person to avenge the king!"
The three princes came out together and asked Ying Zheng to put down his hatred for the time being, and even asked the Yan State to stop the army at any cost.
Because the Qin State, which has been fighting for years, is really unstoppable!
It is extremely difficult for today's Great Qin to fight against Zhao alone. If the goal of this battle is revenge, Great Qin's chances of victory are very slim, and it may even collapse the country's strength due to the long battle front.
Only by continuing to set the goal of this war to repel the Zhao army, forcing Zhao to sue for peace, and then allowing the head of Guizhou to rest and recuperate for a few years and restore national strength is the strategy for the country!
The only drawback of this strategy is that it requires Ying Zheng to be patient!
Forbearance without the dignity of a king!
Ying Zheng’s face turned cold, and his chest rose and fell as rapidly as a bellows.
But after more than ten breaths, Ying Zheng finally nodded with difficulty and said: "What the three masters said is reasonable."
"The assassination of the widow is certainly a revenge."
"But I am the King of Qin, but I should pay more attention to the country!"
Ying Zheng finally chose to compromise between the individual and the country!
Yang Hu and other officials of the Young Master Sect felt deep anger and self-blame in their hearts.
Wei Liao, Wang Wan and other veterans breathed a sigh of relief, and they all raised their hands: "Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Ying Zheng's hands in his sleeves were clenched into fists, his fingernails The skin on the palm of my hand was stinging, but the voice had returned to calmness: "The order from the widow."
"Shangqing Yao Jia brought two hundred catties of gold to Yan State again to lobby Yan State's important ministers. There is no need to fight for the punishment of Prince Dan of Yan State. He will try his best to get Yan State to stop the army..."
However, Ying Zheng's words Before it fell, a vague voice floated into the imperial study room. "Urgent military information from Lord Chang'an!"
Ying Zheng's ears immediately caught the familiar key words, and he suddenly looked at the door and said without hesitation: "Send it! ”
The door of the room opened wide, and Mr. Dan entered the imperial study room with the help of two servants.
Dan Fu, who knew what Ying Zheng cared about most, shouted loudly as soon as he entered the door: "Your Majesty!"
"My army has won a great victory! Lord Chang'an is safe!"
As expected.
Hearing what Mr. Dan said, Ying Zheng’s nervousness disappeared. Even the anger that he had to endure the revenge of being assassinated was mostly suppressed. He even pointed at Mr. Dan and said with a smile: "Doctor Dan. That's clever!"
He broke away from the servant and fell to the ground with his weak legs. The eggman bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, you praise me."
"Here is our military report. Please read it, Your Majesty!"
Without any instructions from Ying Zheng, Meng Yi had already stepped off the platform as soon as Dan Fu entered the door.
The military report was handed over smoothly. Meng Yi checked the clay-seal letter as he walked. When he walked back to the high platform, he opened the bamboo tube and presented it with both hands.
Ying Zheng hurriedly took the bamboo tube, poured out a roll of bamboo slips, and scanned it eagerly.
【Your Majesty Chang'an obeys the king's order and orders the main force of our army to march eastward to Taihang to resist the invasion of foreign enemies and protect the people of our great Qin Dynasty! 】
[On March 6, 14th year, I fought with Lord Wu'an of Zhao at Hou'ao Mountain and won. 】
【On April 10, the 14th year, I led a surprise attack on Wu'an City and pulled it out. 】
[On April 13, the fourteenth year, my troops came to Handan City, and they sincerely invited King Zhao to answer in front of the battle formation, and discuss together the matter of Qin and Zhao's withdrawal of troops, in order to obtain gains for the two kingdoms of Qin and Zhao. Peace. 】
【Yes! King Zhao is arrogant! Zhao Chen is arrogant! Seeing that I only led an army of 100,000 people, I treated me with utmost contempt! I waited outside Handan City for more than half an hour, but no one in Zhao State was willing to answer my question! 】
[In order to negotiate with King Zhao about a truce, I was forced to have no choice but to attack Handan City that day in order to break down the barrier between me and King Zhao, and with Zhao. Wang held long talks and had in-depth exchanges. 】
Seeing this, Ying Zheng suddenly felt a sense of familiarity in his heart.
I seem to have seen these remarks before!
[On April 16, the 14th year, General Jian defeated Zhao Wuxiangjun and joined forces with our army. 】
[On April 22nd of the 14th year, the city of Handan was destroyed. Zhao Wangqian still refused to discuss the withdrawal of troops with his ministers, but directly asked for surrender! 】
Sure enough, as soon as Ying Zheng looked down a line, his eyes went dark.
But the touch of his fingertips made Ying Zheng's eyesight not turn completely black, because judging from the thickness of the bamboo slips, the military report was not over yet!
[On April 23rd of the 14th year, the chaos in Handan City was calmed down. General Jian was guarding Handan. Soldiers from various ministries went out to take over the land of the old Zhao. I led 180,000 troops and continued to advance eastward. . 】
[In this battle, I...]
Ying Zheng could no longer see the handwriting clearly clearly.
Because no matter how hard it is for Ying Zheng to persevere, everything is dark in front of him!
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty!"
"Is your Majesty okay? Send the message to the imperial physician immediately!"
"Could it be that Lord Chang'an is injured? But didn't the messenger say that Lord Chang'an is okay!"
The worried voices of the ministers reached Ying Zheng's ears. Ying Zheng reluctantly handed over the bamboo slips in his hand and said in a hoarse voice: "Read it!"
Meng Yi glanced at Ying Zheng worriedly. But he didn't dare to say anything. He just took the bamboo slip and recited aloud: "Your Majesty, Chang'an, obeys the king's order..."
The ministers and generals all looked at Ying Zheng with worried eyes and only listened to the military report recited by Meng Yi with their ears.
But as they listened, the eyes of the officials and generals uncontrollably turned from Ying Zheng to Meng Yi, and their eyes widened and widened unconsciously!
"On April 22, the 14th year, the city of Handan was destroyed. Zhao Wangqian still refused to discuss the withdrawal of troops with his ministers, but directly asked for surrender!"
End reading During this period, even Meng Yi froze in place, holding the bamboo slips close to his eyes in disbelief, and then looked at the ministers with shocked eyes:
"Zhao Kingdom, perish!"
"King Zhao, surrender!"
In the Imperial Study Room, all the ministers and generals collectively lost their voices.
Wang Ben slowly moved his right hand down and pinched hard.
“Ah!”
A scream broke the peace in the imperial study room.
Wang Ben murmured: "Isn't this general dreaming?"
Yang Hu covered his pinched thigh and shouted in shock: "The Kingdom of Zhao is dead?"
" Is Zhao State dead now?”
What followed was an uproar!
“Qin and Zhao fought bloody battles for more than a hundred years, and I don’t know how many sons died at the hands of the Zhao army. Now, the Zhao Kingdom has perished at the hands of Chang’an Lord! Oh my! Good luck to me, general!”
"Aweng! Grandfather! Lord Chang'an has avenged you!"
"Hahaha~ I never thought about it! I have long known that Lord Chang'an is an unparalleled general in this world, but I never thought that Lord Chang'an would go on an expedition this time. How could we destroy the State of Zhao! What a great deal!”
The bloody battle between Qin and Zhao lasted for more than a hundred years?
Mengyi, Yang Hu, Wang Wan, Sima Chang and many other veterans of the Qin Dynasty, who did not have relatives who died at the hands of the Zhao people? !
Just a few years ago, General Huan Jue of the Qin Dynasty died in the battle of Zhao Wuanjun Li Mu!
These two brotherly countries, which come from the same lineage, have long turned into an endless blood feud due to war after war!
Even though Da Qin's national power has doubled today, not a single courtier dares to look down upon Zhao State, and even regards Zhao State as a powerful enemy that Da Qin needs to fight with all its strength.
Just now, the ministers regarded the State of Zhao as a strong enemy. Just because the State of Yan and the State of Zhao joined forces, they had to give up their revenge on the State of Yan, and were forced to let Ying Zheng endure the humiliation.
But now, it was just a defensive counterattack to resist the Zhao army, but it was turned into a war of national annihilation by Ying Chengyu.
The great Qin Dynasty suffered a blood feud and the country was destroyed!
All the blood debts of the ministers will be repaid in full!
