In the capital of Qin, Xianyang, and in the Great Qin Palace.

"Damn it, Qin Bubai misled me!"

A roar came from the palace, and the owner of the voice could tell that he was actually very angry.

When Qin Zheng learned that Qin Bubai not only did not defend Hulao Pass, but even his men and his army died in Hulao Pass, he was suddenly furious. Qin Zheng did not feel sorry for Qin Bubai's death at all.

However, Qin Bubai shouldn't have buried most of the elite army of Qin and destroyed them together at Hulao Pass. This is the reason why Qin Zheng was angry. Without most of the elite army, it is still unknown whether the Qin army can defend the capital Xianyang City. Even if it can be defended, it is still incapable of fighting back against the Zhen army.

Therefore, Qin Zheng, who was very ambitious, wanted to rely on the strength of the Xianyang City's city-shadow formation to resist the Zhenguo army and was waiting for an opportunity to counterattack, was naturally very angry. If Qin Bubai was not dead at this time, he would have killed Qin Bubai to eliminate the hatred in his heart.

"Come here, call the ministers to discuss matters immediately!"

Although he was angry, Qin Zheng quickly calmed down. Now is not the time to be angry. What he needs to do now is how to deal with the Zhenguo army that will kill to Xianyang City next.

From the information found by the spies, Qin Zheng understood that the Zhen Kingdom army would soon reach Xianyang City. At that time, they would face a huge test. If they could defend Xianyang City under the attack of the Zhen Kingdom army, then Qin would have a glimmer of hope and rescue.

If Xianyang City cannot be defended and finally captured by the Zhen Kingdom's army, then Qin Kingdom will be destroyed by then without any luck.

Soon, under the order of Qin Zheng, not long after, the senior officials of Qin's civil and military gathered in the Hall of Ceremony to discuss how to deal with the Zhen Kingdom's army.

"Everyone, have you finished reading what our spies are exploring? How should we deal with the army of Zhenguo next!"

Qin Zheng looked down and asked the cunning ministers.

At this time, a veteran minister who looked in his seventies and seemed to be about to die at any time said: "By the estimation of the ministers, we should not be the opponent of the Zhenguo army.

If at this time, we are trapped in Xianyang City and wait for the Zhen Kingdom army to attack Xianyang City, we will only be able to guard the lonely city at that time. At that time, we will definitely not be the opponent of Zhen Kingdom and will only be able to sit and wait for death.

It is better to abandon Xianyang City, move the royal city, fight guerrilla war with Zhen Kingdom, and wait for the Zhen Kingdom army to retreat, and we will attack again, recover the territory and restore Qin Kingdom."

"It is definitely not a good idea to give up Xianyang City. With Xianyang City, we may still fight against the Zhenguo army. If there is no Xianyang City, we will be even more unlikely to be the opponent of Zhenguo. At that time, we will only be defeated by Zhenguo one by one and eventually die in battle.

In my opinion, we should surrender.”

At this time, another minister stood up and opposed it and said, "At this time, Zhen's country is in great power and unification of the Jiuzhou continent is already the general trend. Those who follow will prosper and those who rebel will perish. It is better to surrender to Zhen's country, and maybe you can get good treatment.

What's more, our Qin clan and Zhen clan are of the same clan. For the sake of the same clan, he will not make things difficult for our Qin clan. It is better to say that a merger is more appropriate than surrender.

At that time, with the relationship between our two countries, we will still be highly valued in Zhenguo. Therefore, surrender is the wisest way to do it. Those who know the times are heroes, not to mention that relying on Zhenguo, our fellow Qin, is not a humiliation for us."

"No, please ask Your Majesty to kill Zhao Fang. Although we are of the same clan as Zhenguo, it is true that once we surrender, Zhenguo will be even more unlikely to tolerate our Qin royal family. Therefore, the surrender of others is likely to be reused, but our royal family will definitely die."

The one who finished speaking was a royal minister and a staunch supporter of the royalists. This man was named Qin Yuan, and he was one of the few talented people among the Qin royal family.

This man understood very clearly and knew that if he surrendered, others might be unable to name the king of Zhenguo and even get better treatment because of the kindness of the monarch of the Qin Kingdom, but the Qin royal family would definitely not have a good end.

Therefore, this person is a firm war pro-strife.

The minister at the beginning advocated avoiding war. Although there were some ministers who supported him, they were only a few. The surrender faction and the pro-war faction were the main force. The surrender faction was mainly Zhao Fang, and the pro-war faction was mainly Qin Yuan.

There are not many talents in these two factions. The elites of Qin have almost died after several wars. The remaining elites are selected from the short ones, and their talents are basically not outstanding.

Otherwise, it would not be Zhao Fang and Qin Yuan, who did not have much prestige, as the leaders of the two major factions.

The surrendered factions and the pro-war factions kept discussing and quarreling on both surrender and fighting. In addition, the escaped factions, neutral factions, etc., each had their own opinions and their own reasons.

In the entire ritual hall, there were quarrels one after another, and it was almost a fight.

If it weren't for the concern of Qin Zheng's attitude, perhaps because of different views, the ministers of Qin State might have performed a full-scale martial arts campaign.

But even so, Qin Zheng felt a headache when facing the ministers who were constantly quarreling.

At this time, Qin Zheng had no idea. Qin Zheng chose to fight for surrender and the main battle.

Just as the pro-war faction said, Zhen and Qin are of the same clan. This not only cannot make the Qin royal family surrender and receive good treatment, but may cause death.

Therefore, once Qin surrenders, Zhen Kingdom is likely to be the first to clean up the Qin royal family. If he were the monarch of Zhen Kingdom, he would not let the Qin royal family go.

There are two major reasons for this. The first reason is that although Qin State is of the same clan as Zhen State, it has not helped Zhen State in the process of Zhen State unifying the Jiuzhou, but instead opposes Zhen State everywhere.

It can be said that it is not an exaggeration to say that Qin is the biggest opponent of Zhen. If such a Qin State, even if it is of the same clan, how could Zhen State let such an existence go?

The second reason is that once the Zhen Kingdom unifies the Jiuzhou, the Zhen Kingdom royal family will be the lord of the Jiuzhou. One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and the Zhen Kingdom royal family will not accept the return of the Qin Dynasty.

Otherwise, once the Qin royal family is accepted and the two sects merge, the Qin royal family will likely use bloodlines to assimilate the Zhen royal family, and it may be possible to seize power through this.

Moreover, the royal family of Zhenguo is small, and it is said that there are no other tribe members besides the monarch of Zhenguo. In this case, how could the monarch of Zhenguo accept other people of the same clan?

Therefore, once Qin State is destroyed, the Qin royal family will not only not help, but also threaten the Zhen State. Such a threat cannot be tolerated by Zhen State.

Not to mention Zhenguo, it is impossible for a monarch to tolerate it, otherwise it will leave huge consequences.
