Chapter 782: Brothers are jealous of each other and resist their insults! Same road, same waiting!
Zhuang Qiu rushed to Daocheng non-stop, and Wang Ling, who was adhering to Yingzheng's rule, took over the responsibility of negotiating between Da Qin and Yan and Dai envoys.
Under the premise that Ying Chengxuan had already agreed on the general direction of the cooperation talks with the envoys of Yan and Dai, and that Qin, Dai, and Yan were all eager for a truce, the progress of the cooperation talks was rapid.
As for Qi Envoy?
Although Qi also indirectly participated in this war through reinforcements of money and food, it was one of the victorious countries.
However, Qi State was very discerning and did not send envoys to participate in the talks. Instead, Qin State had full power to fight for Qi State's interests.
Seeing this, Ying Chengyu also deliberately provided more opportunities for Zhuang Qiu, a 'junior' in the field of lobbying, so he simply took charge of making final decisions and stopped participating in the discussions for the rest of the time. He took the generals of Dai State to feast and feast endlessly.
June 26th, the 14th year of the Qin Dynasty.
The main tent of the Qin army in Daocheng.
Ying Cheng was full of wine and sighed with regret: "Today the joint talks have been decided, tomorrow the three armies will break camp and return together."
"I don't know when I will be able to meet the second and third sons."
"I really don't want to meet the second and third sons on the battlefield and start killing again!"
All the generals felt a little bitter.
Li Hong also drank a lot of wine from the jue and said with emotion: "Thank you for being valued by Lord Chang'an, I will be ashamed of it in the end."
"I only wish that the two countries of Qin will always be in good terms, and not with Chang'an." You fight on the battlefield!”
You don't want to?
We don’t even want to!
After Ying Chengyu ordered the earth dragon to overturn the wall of Handan City, who the hell wants to fight against the likes of Ying Chengyu!
Ying Chengyu shook his head slightly: "Although I really don't want to fight with the second and third sons on the battlefield anymore."
"But you and I should understand that sooner or later, between the Qin Dynasty, There must be a battle!”
Ying Chengyu succeeded in making the generals of the Dai army freeze with just one sentence!
Li Hongqiang smiled and said: "I only hope that Lord Chang'an can say a few kind words on behalf of the country for me."
"With Lord Chang'an's status in the Qin State, I think Lord Chang'an will definitely be able to represent the second generation of Qin." The country has achieved peace.”
“I will pay my respects to Lord Chang’an on behalf of my father!”
After saying that, Li Hong filled himself up with a glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp!
Ying Chengyu also filled up his drink, with a hint of helplessness in his voice: "Does Lieutenant Li think this is the general who wants to go on an expedition?"
"Or is it that I, the Qin Dynasty, want to go on an overseas expedition?"
“No! None of them!”
“I love peace especially!”
“In recent years, our country, Qin Dynasty, has been immersed in building the Zheng Guo Canal and does not want to go outside. War.”
“It’s because all the countries in the world are forcing each other hard, and they have repeatedly tried to make our Great Qin restless through war.”
“We, the Great Qin, were forced to have no choice but to send troops to fight!”
“It’s because of all the countries in the world. The country has repeatedly made alliances to attack Qin, so that our Qin army is short of generals, so I have to take command and go out!"
Li Hong, Sima Che and others looked at each other.
Your Great Qin was forced to send troops to fight, and then destroyed Han, Wei, Chu, and Zhao, and occupied most of the world? !
Your Lord Chang'an was forced to go on an expedition, and then you conquered Handan City? !
I am so helpless, please give me a piece of Daiguo too!
Ying Chengyu ignored the strange behavior of the generals of the Dai Army, and instead asked: "This time our Great Qin occupies the territory of the old Zhao, there should be many people from the old Zhao who fled to the Dai, right?"< br>
Li Hong looked at Ying Chengyu with resentment and said: "Currently, more than 200,000 people have entered Dai County from Zhao."
Li Hong knew very well that although Ying Chengyu was strict, The gates were controlled and ordinary people of Zhao State were prohibited from traveling to Dai State, but many channels were deliberately left open.
As long as the old Zhao Haoqiang and the old Zhao dignitaries have some strength, connections and money, they can use these channels to benefit the country of Dai after paying a certain price.
Although these old Zhao Haoqiang and old Zhao dignitaries who can benefit the country of Dai are all devoted to the country of Dai, they are all exploiting classes who are not engaged in production!
Qin is not happy to have these people?
Dai Guo is not happy to have these people!
But there is no way. Since Dai Guo considers itself to have inherited the state of Zhao, it cannot openly expel the Bafangrun people who came to vote in the name of Zhao!
Ying Chengyu asked again: "The country of Dai borders the Xiongnu, and now we have sent another 120,000 troops to Tuocheng."
"The number of troops that the country of Dai has on a daily basis is around 200,000?"< br>
Li Hong said calmly: "To be honest with the Lord of Chang'an, in the past, the standing troops of our county were one hundred thousand."
"Due to many reasons, Zhao soldiers poured into our country, and our country also In the event of a major war, we have to raise troops again. Now my generation does have more than 200,000 troops. "
"As for the number of standing troops in the future, I don't know yet."
Facing the cavalry, Li Honghui killed Dai Jun and sent 180,000 troops. There were more than 100,000 troops guarding the border.
But when facing Ying Chengyu, Li Hong chose to be honest.
After all, the scouts of the Qin army are not inferior to those of the Dai army, and the candidates of the Qin army are far better than those of the Dai army. Li Hong does not think that the number of soldiers and horses claimed by the Dai army can be concealed from the eyes and ears of Ying Chengyu.
Continuing to lie will only make you laugh!
Ying Chengyu sighed softly: "This is the problem."
"According to my general's estimation, Dai State currently has more than two million people, and it still needs about 100,000 troops to deal with the Xiongnu going south, but it only leads 60% of the territory of Tudai County and Shanggu County."
"But how can a territory of one and a half counties produce enough grain for the head of Guizhou to chew?!"
"In order to avoid famine in the head of Guizhou, Dai will eventually take the initiative to attack the Qin Dynasty."
"I will eventually put on my armor and go into battle again to fight for the Qin Dynasty."
"This general can endure the war, but I really can't bear to meet you with swordsmen!"
Ying Chengyu looked around at the generals of the Dai army with eyes full of expectation, and Tu Qiongdagger said: "So, come to my great Qin!"
"Wouldn't it be beautiful for you and me to feast all day long?"
"I will be the guarantor as Lord Chang'an of Great Qin and Young Master of Great Qin, so I can recommend you to our king."
"With your abilities, you will definitely make great achievements in our Great Qin. It’s no problem to become a prince and a general!”
After nearly half a month of preparation, Ying Chengyu finally revealed his purpose.
Abduct people! Abduct people! Still kidnapping!
Although Zhao's top generals have been squandered by the Zhao court until only Li Mu is left, Zhao's mid-level and high-level generals make Ying Cheng jealous.
More importantly, these generals who have been stationed in Daijun all year round have abundant experience in fighting the Huns. Some generals are even proficient in the languages of various Xiongnu tribes and are familiar with the topography of the Xiongnu area.
And Da Qin will one day go into full-scale war with the Xiongnu!
If these generals who have fought with the Xiongnu all their lives can be brought under their command, Da Qin will definitely have a better chance of winning when it attacks the Xiongnu in the future!
Facing the invitation personally sent by Ying Chengyu, all the generals looked at each other, and they could see the deep entanglement and heartbeat in each other's eyes.
If others had said this, they might not have paid much attention to it, but when these words were spoken by Ying Chengyu himself, their weight would be different.
Because Ying Chengyu is not only in charge of talking about surrender, he is also in charge of after-sales service!
Jing Po and many other Chu generals who surrendered to Ying Chengyu took advantage of Qin Qi's opportunity to destroy Chu and made them captains in a battle. Their future was bright.
Zhuang Qiu, who surrendered to Ying Chengyu, was directly named Dian Kecheng and is now negotiating with Dai Guo on behalf of Da Qin.
Tengfu, Lexun and other generals and ministers from other countries who had asked Ying Chengyu to surrender in the early years were all arranged by Ying Chengyu. Now many of them have reached high positions.
Ying Chengxiu has a bright future after surrendering! Maybe you can still have a good fortune in the soil and continue to enjoy the benefits after death. If you don't return, you will surrender? How can they face Ying Chengyu's technique of destroying cities and demolishing strongholds!
The only thing that kept them from making up their minds was their loyalty to the Zhao royal family or Li Mu.
Li Hong was on pins and needles when he saw this!
Li Hong hurriedly said: "Mr. Chang'an, there is no need to worry about this."
"Although my generation is just like what Mr. Chang'an said, there are generally more people and less land and the land is barren."
"But my king He is definitely not an ordinary person like the King of Yan!"
"Since my father has decided to make a truce with Qin, he will not start the war lightly again."
"To be honest, my father has given advice. My king, after the Three Kingdoms peace talks, our army will not return to Yu County, but will go directly northward!”
Ying Chengyu looked surprised: "Going north?"
"Do you want to attack the Huns from the north?"
Li Hong nodded and said: "Mr. Chang'an expected it well."
br>"It is said that a captain of ten thousand men from the Xiongnu Luoting tribe raised an army to usurp the throne, and then led the Luoting tribe to conquer the south and the north, expand the territory, pacify many northern Hungarian tribes, and establish the Hu Kingdom on his own, taking the name of the proud son of heaven."
“This captain of ten thousand men claims to be the one who plows the lonely man, which means the great leader under the sky.”
There was a sound of jeers in the military tent.
The great leader under the sky?
Is he worthy? !
Even if they call themselves 'Hu', their name among the Chinese people is still just 'Hongnu' full of contempt!
Li Hong continued: "Although this Gutu Chanyu is arrogant, he is also quite capable. In recent years, his territory has been increasing day by day."
"Our army is fighting this battle to curb the expansion of the Xiongnu."
"At the same time, we will seize some territory and reclaim it to support my generation, the head of Guizhou."
Li Hong looked at a group of people. The generals from all generations said seriously: "At the beginning of the great dynasty, many official positions are vacant."
"If there are soldiers who can bravely kill the enemy and show their talents in this battle, the king will certainly not hesitate to reward them! ”
Li Hong no longer cares about the cost of leaking secrets.
If he doesn't throw in some sweeteners quickly, Li Hong is really afraid that only Li Hong will be able to return to Daijun after today's banquet!
Ying Cheng was startled: "Dai wanted to go north to attack the Hu to gain territory!"
In the original history, Dai not only did not go to war with the Huns, but also maintained a relationship with them. The ambiguous relationship even gained a lot of support from the Huns.
But now, Dai Guo actually wants to go north to defeat the Hu, embarking on a completely different path from the original history!
After pondering for a moment, Ying Chengyu said in a deep voice: "Brothers are angry at the wall, and they are outside to resist their insults."
"Every time I have good friends, I don't have an army!"
"Now our Qin Dynasty has gone through many battles and is in urgent need of self-cultivation. It is really unable to help the country with armies."
"But this general can be here. I promise that when Dai Guo conquers Hu, as long as Dai Guo does not take the initiative to attack our Qin Dynasty, I will not lead the attack on Dai!"
The hatred between Qin and Zhao is as deep as the sea, but it is just a family feud.
The war between China and the Huns is a war between civilizations!
Ying Chengyu will not help Dai State, but at least he will not hold back Dai State - if Great Qin really delays Dai State's Northern Expedition, then Great Qin will surely be drowned in the spit of the people of the world!
Moreover, Da Qin must have a battle with the Xiongnu and Dai. Letting the Xiongnu fight Dai first would be of great benefit to Da Qin.
Li Hong hurriedly stood up and bowed his hands gratefully: "General, I would like to thank Lord Qin Chang'an on behalf of my king!"
All the generals also raised their hands gratefully: "Thank you. Lord Qin Chang'an!"
Even if Ying Chengyu did not make a promise on behalf of Qin, as long as Ying Chengyu himself promised not to attack Dai during the Northern Expedition, all the generals would be satisfied. Much more stable.
Ying Chengyu stood up, held up the wine cup in his hand to invite you to drink, and said, "With this wine, I hope you will come back in full swing!"
Li Hong and all the other generals raised the wine cup together and shouted excitedly: " Thank you Lord Qin Changan!”
This is a blessing from the Great Witch!
Although it was just one sentence, it was enough to make many generals believe that this battle would be won!
The whole night of feasting did not break the minds of the generals of both armies.
The next day, when the day dawned, the Dai army pulled out their tents and advanced towards the Xiongnu with a fighting spirit.
The Qin army also broke out of their camps and formed a formation, embarking on their triumphant return journey.
Two hundred thousand Yan troops were stationed at the border. They watched the Qin and Dai armies leave with complicated eyes. Then they looked back in the direction of Jicheng and sighed in their hearts.
——
On July 11th, the 14th year of the Qin Dynasty.
A large army composed of 50,000 elite Qin troops advanced from west to east.
But there was no murderous intent in this army. There were even musicians sitting on flat cars, playing the harp, the sheng, and the piano, which cast a thin veil of peace over the 50,000 veterans of the war.
Carts symbolizing power and status were running back and forth among the army.
The ceremonial guards that can only be used by the king add to the respect of this army.
In the middle of the army, inside the five-horse chariot.
Ying Zheng sat quietly by the car window, looking at the strange and familiar scene outside the car window, his eyes full of complexity and reminiscence.
Eighteen years ago, after a multi-party game, Ying Zheng, who was a chess piece, and Zhao Ji, who was also a chess piece, finally left Handan City, which was surrounded by hostility.
Along the way, Ying Zheng fantasized about how much his ancestors would miss him, that he could return to his home, that he would have enough to eat every meal, and that he might still be able to eat occasionally. Serve the meat!
When Ying Zheng crosses this path, what awaits Ying Zheng is Ying Yiren’s indifferent attitude, Empress Dowager Huayang’s forced love, Empress Dowager Xia’s undisguised disgust and hostility all around her. His 'home', even Zhao Ji, who depended on him for life, seemed to have changed, leaving him without his last support.
If it weren't for the child who suddenly broke into his life, he really didn't know who he could rely on.
If it weren't for the persimmons that were stuffed into his mouth from time to time, his childhood would probably have been bitter and spicy, but not sweet or sour.
Today, Ying Zheng embarked on this path again.
But he was no longer a chess piece or a trophy, but was sent to a prison that was also full of disgust for him by the Zhao soldiers who hated him.
But as a king, he leads an army loyal to him to inspect his territory!
Feng Quji rode his horse to the side of Yingzheng's carriage window, cupped his hands and reported: "Your Majesty, the distance between our troops and Handan City is only thirty miles."
"The Lord of Chang'an has ordered the messengers to report that the Lord of Chang'an has completely taken control of Handan City and sent a hundred thousand troops to clean up along the way. It is safe."
"And I would like to ask when will the king enter the city?"< br>
Ying Zheng came back to his senses, looked towards the direction of Handan City, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly: "This is my order!"
"The whole army will march forward for twenty miles and then set up camp to rest."
"The generals are invigorated, and the ministers are bathing."
"Tomorrow I will enter Handan with the others!"
Even more fortunately.
The child who had been waiting for him in Xianyang City.
He is also waiting for him in Handan City at the moment!
