Furious! Gong Yan, on behalf of(1/2)
In the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed. The Qin army has conquered Handan and captured Zhao Wangqian, but Jing Ke still has not taken any action.
Another month later, the Qin army pacified the entire territory of Zhao and the border of Yan State. Prince Dan was very worried about the Qin army attacking Yan, so he went to urge Jing Ke and said: "Qin's army has reached the border of Yan State and may attack at any time."
It is possible to cross the Yi River, but when the nest is overturned, there will be no eggs left. Even if I want to serve you again, I will not have the chance!"
Jing Ke understood what Prince Dan meant and said, "I am also thinking about this and want to visit the Prince! But if I go alone, how can King Qin receive me? How can we discuss important matters without a chance to get close?"
"Sir, if you have any requests, just ask."
"Now there are only two things that the Yan State can impress the King of Qin. One is the map of Dukang of the Yan State and the second-hand head of General Fan Yuqi! If I take these two things to the Qin State, I will definitely be received by the King of Qin, so that I can have a chance.
Repay the prince!"
"The map is easy to tell. I can give it to you now. It's just that General Fan came to Yan State because he was desperate. How can I bear to kill a loyal and honest person? Sir, please think of another way!"
Jing Ke knew that Prince Dan couldn't bear it, so he met with Fan Yuqi in private and said: "The King of Qin treated the general too cruelly. He not only killed the general's parents and clan, but now he wants to use thousands of gold to seal tens of thousands of households."
What are you going to do with the purchase of the general’s head?”
Yu Qi looked up at the sky, sighed and cried: "Every time I think of this, it hurts to the bone, but I have no choice but to watch the King of Qin murder my clan!"
"Now there is an opportunity to avenge the general and at the same time relieve the disaster faced by the Yan Kingdom!"
“Want to hear the details!”
"I am planning to assassinate the King of Qin, but I have no chance to get close to him. If I can get the general's head to present to the King of Qin, then he will be happy to summon me, and I can grab his sleeve with my left hand and stab him with a dagger in my right hand.
If you stab him in the chest, then the general's hatred can be washed away, and the shame of being bullied by Yan can also be washed away. I wonder if the general is willing?"
Fan Yuqi said bitterly: "This is my unforgettable hatred. Please avenge me, sir!" Then he committed suicide.
When Prince Dan heard the news, he drove quickly to Fan Yuqi's hotel, where he lay on the body and cried bitterly. Although he felt that what Jing Ke did was inappropriate, he understood his original intention. Seeing that there was no way back, he had no choice but to save Fan.
Yu Qi's head was put into a box, sealed and handed to Jing Ke.
The two things needed to approach King Qin were ready. Prince Dan handed the prepared dagger of Mrs. Xu to Jing Ke and said: "This is the sharpest dagger in the world. It was made by Mrs. Xu of Zhao State. Let the craftsmen
It is made by quenching it with poisonous water ninety-nine times. When killing people, they will die immediately if they see a trace of blood."
Then he called the warrior Qin Wuyang and told Jing Ke, "This is a warrior from Yan State. He killed people at the age of thirteen. No one else dares to look at him face to face, so let him be your assistant."
Jing Ke said: "Now everything is ready, I just need to wait for my friends to arrive and we can set off!"
What Jing Ke was waiting for was Gai Nie, a famous swordsman from Zhao! Jing Ke had visited Gai Nie in Yuci many times and was deeply impressed by his swordsmanship.
I still remember that when Jing Ke met him for the first time, he was still young and was scared away by Gai Nie's majesty. When he met for the second time, he only dared to talk about swordsmanship with Gai Nie and did not dare to fight. Only after his third visit did he dare to talk to Gai Nie.
He started to fight, but was defeated within three moves! After that, Jing Ke visited him many times and learned the essence of swordsmanship from him. The two gradually became sworn friends and cherished each other.
Jing Ke sent someone to invite Gai Nie very early and wanted to join him in assassinating the King of Qin. However, due to the tragic war between Qin and Zhao, Yuci was severely damaged. The envoy could not find Gai Nie and was afraid of Jing Ke's blame, so he ran away.
After waiting for a long time, there is still no news.
Prince Dan suspected that Jing Ke was stalling for time, thinking that he had gone back on his word, so he urged him again: "There are not many days left. Do you have any plans to leave, sir? I would like to send Qin Wuyang first, and then set off later."
Jing Ke knew that Prince Dan was doubting himself, and was very angry. He rebuked Prince Dan and said, "What do you mean by sending the prince like this? Do you think I regret it? If you just do it and fail to complete the mission, you are a useless boy! Now it's time to
take one
It will be even more difficult to complete the mission if you plunge a dagger into the unpredictable Qin Dynasty! The reason why I am staying temporarily is to wait for another friend to go with me, so as to live up to the prince's trust. Now the prince thinks that I have delayed my time, so I will leave
Say goodbye!"
Prince Dan apologized quickly, but Jing Ke had already decided to travel.
The next day, Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang finished preparing their luggage and were about to bid farewell to the prince and set off. Prince Dan and the guests who knew about it all wore white clothes and white hats to see Jing Ke off. There were only five or six people in total.
On the bank of Yishui, Gao Jianli was building a building, making a desolate and melancholy sound. Jing Ke and
Singing to the rhythm of the beat, "The wind is rustling and the water is cold, and the heroes are gone and never come back!" Those who saw him off shed tears. Suddenly the sound of building construction became impassioned again, and Jing Ke sang along, "Exploring the tiger's den and entering the dragon's palace.
"Look up to the sky and exhale, it will turn into a white rainbow." After singing, Jing Ke got in the car and left without even looking back.
When he arrived in Qin, Jing Ke brought a gift worth thousands of gold and went to visit Meng Jia, the concubine of the King of Qin's favored ministers. He said: "I am the envoy of King Yan, and I have come to convey King Yan's will. Now Han and Zhao have returned to Qin.
, The land of Yan State is barren and the population is sparse, so it cannot survive alone. The King of Yan does not dare to bother the King of Qin's army, but wants to offer the land of Yan State on his own initiative, hoping to become a subject of Qin like Han and Zhao!"
Meng Jia did not know Jing Ke. Although Jing Ke presented many treasures, he still had doubts in his heart and said: "How can you prove that you are the envoy of King Yan? What you are conveying is the order of King Yan?"
"Yan
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
In order to show his sincerity of surrender, the king specially ordered me to bring two gifts to the King of Qin! One is the map of Dukang of the Yan State, and the other is the head of Fan Yuqi, the rebel general of the Qin State. Dukang is the richest area of the Yan State.
And Fan Yuqi is a traitor general whom the King of Qin ordered to put a reward on, and the King of Yan wants to use this to show his true intentions!"
"Can you let me take a look first? In case it disturbs King Qin."
Jingke knew that Meng Jia wanted to check whether the gift was real, so he asked people to bring the map and the head. Meng Jia told his surroundings: "You guys should come and have a look too!" One of them knew Fan Yuqi and said that it was indeed true.
Someone also visited Dukang of Yan State and told Mengjia that the map was not fake.
After Meng Jia checked the authenticity, he was very happy and said: "The king of Yan can understand the general trend and follow the trend, which is the blessing of the Yan country. I will definitely report it to the king!" Jing Ke thanked him.
The next day at the court meeting, Meng Jia reported to the King of Qin: "The King of Yan was frightened when he saw that Han and Zhao were destroyed. He did not dare to send out troops to resist the king's soldiers. He was willing to sacrifice the land and people of the country and arrange them among other vassal states to pay taxes.
Serve as if you were directly under the county
The county was now too frightened to come and make a statement in person. So they cut off the head of Qin's traitor general Fan Yuqi, sealed it in a box, and ordered the special envoy to take Fan Yuqi's head and the richest Dukang of Yan.
I present the map of the area to your Majesty. Please give me your instructions."
When the King of Qin heard the news, he was very happy. He put on his formal attire, arranged a nine-guest ceremony, which was extremely grand in diplomacy, and summoned the envoys of Yan in Xianyang Palace.
Jing Ke held Fan Yuqi's head, and Qin Wuyang held the map box. They advanced in the order of chief and deputy envoys. When they reached the steps in front of the palace, Qin Wuyang's face suddenly changed and he was trembling with fear. The ministers were all surprised. Jing Ke turned around and faced
Qin Wuyang smiled and stepped forward to apologize and said: "The savage people in the barbarian land of the northern vassal have never seen the emperor, so they are frightened. I hope the king will tolerate him and allow him to complete his mission in front of the king."
The King of Qin said to Jing Ke: "Give me the map Wuyang brought."
Jing Ke took the map and presented it to the King of Qin. The King of Qin unfolded the map. The scroll was stretched to the end and the dagger was exposed. Jing Ke took the opportunity to grab the King of Qin's sleeve with his left hand and stabbed him with the dagger in his right hand. The King of Qin was shocked, jumped up and broke his sleeve.
He hurriedly drew his sword, but it was too long. He didn't pull it out at once, but just grabbed the scabbard. Jing Ke chased the King of Qin, and the King of Qin ran around the pillar.
The ministers were all stunned by this unexpected incident. According to the laws of the Qin State, the ministers in the palace were not allowed to carry any weapons; the military attachés could only guard outside the palace in order with weapons. Without the emperor's order, no one could carry any weapons.
He was allowed to enter the palace. At the critical moment, it was too late to summon the guards below, so Jing Ke had the opportunity to chase the King of Qin.
In a hurry, the King of Qin could only fight Jing Ke with his bare hands. At this time, the medical officer Xia Wuqi used the medicine bag he was holding to throw at Jing Ke, but missed. The attendants recovered and shouted: "Your Majesty, push the sword behind your back.
!" King Qin held the sword
Pushing him behind, he drew his sword and attacked Jing Ke, cutting off his left leg. Jing Ke was disabled, so he raised his dagger and stabbed the King of Qin directly. He missed but hit the copper pillar. The King of Qin attacked Jing Ke one after another, and Jing Ke was killed.
Stabbed in eight places.
Jing Ke knew that the big thing would not succeed, so he leaned on a pillar and laughed, spread his legs like a dustpan and sat on the ground and cursed: "The reason why the big thing didn't succeed is because I want to capture you alive and force you to make an agreement to return it to the princes."
The land contract will be repaid to the prince." At this time, the guards rushed forward and killed Jing Ke.
King Qin was stunned on the spot and was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses.
After Jing Ke assassinated Qin, the King of Qin was furious and ordered Li Siche to investigate Jing Ke's case. At the same time, he sent Wang Jian and Xin Sheng to lead a hundred thousand Qin troops from Zhao to attack Yan! King Yan was shocked when he heard the news and immediately summoned his officials to discuss countermeasures.
Prince Fu Juwu said: "Now that Yan has been fighting for many years, its national strength is poor and weak. It will be difficult to win without uniting the princes!"
King Yan said: "The only countries connected with Yan are Qi and Zhao. However, both countries have old grudges with Yan, and Zhao has been destroyed, leaving only Daidi. How can they unite now?"
Ju Wudao: "Although Yan and Zhao have old grievances, now that Zhao Gongzijia exists alone in Dai, the country will be destroyed and the family will be destroyed, which will inevitably not last long. It is also in his interest to unite Yan to fight against Qin! Qi and Yan have deep grievances, and I am afraid it will be difficult to
Send troops to assist us. The Chu State is newly established and may send troops to help us! Please send an envoy to ask the King of Chu for rescue. At the same time, send people to the Qin State to spread the news of the alliance between Yan and Chu, so that the Qin Army will be worried that the Chu State will not be able to send troops.
Invade the Yan Kingdom with all your strength."
The King of Yan thought that what Prince Fu said was very reasonable, so he sent envoys to contact Gongzi Jia and King Chu of Chu, and at the same time sent people to Xianyang to publicize the news of the Chu-Yan alliance.
Let us say that when the envoy came to Dai, he saw Gongzi Jia. Gongzi Jia was overjoyed. He knew that the situation of the Yan State was critical. Once the Yan State was destroyed by the Qin army, the Dai land would definitely not be able to survive alone! So he agreed to the request of the Yan State and made temporary arrangements.
Thirty thousand troops were sent to reinforce the Yan State, under the unified command of Prince Dan.
Prince Dan believed that there were many rivers in the land of Yan and Zhao, and the rivers should be used as natural barriers to block the Qin army, occupy favorable terrain, and attack the Qin army. So he led a hundred thousand Yan Dynasty coalition troops to occupy favorable terrain on major rivers, and deployed the main force in Yishui
To the west, block the Qin army.
The Qin army moved quickly and soon reached the bank of Yishui River. The two armies faced each other across the water. The Yan Dynasty coalition forces waited for work and relied on the favorable terrain to block the Qin army's advance.
Wang Jian and Xin Sheng discussed countermeasures. Wang Jian said: "The coalition forces of the Yan Dynasty occupy the favorable terrain at the mouth of the river. Our army cannot break through. We need to find other crossings!"
Xin Sheng said: "General Wang's words are reasonable. Now the Yi River ferry is occupied by the Yan Dynasty coalition forces. The lower reaches of the Yi River are too wide to cross, and the upper reaches are mountainous. The army's baggage cannot pass. Now we must defeat the enemy at the ferry before we can cross the river!"
Wang Jian's heart suddenly moved, and he came up with a plan and said: "The more unexpected it is, the more effective it is in catching the unprepared one. Although the mountains make it difficult for the army to pass, the light cavalry can always do it! If you send a light cavalry,
The partial division formed went around behind the enemy, although the people
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
There are only a few, but if we attack from the front and back, if the enemy troops cannot look at each other from head to tail, they will be defeated!"
Xin Sheng was overjoyed after hearing this! He said: "General Wang's words make sense! General Wang will lead his army there for a reason!"
So Wang Jian selected 5,000 light cavalry, led by Xin Sheng, who bypassed the mountainous area north of the Yi River and inserted themselves behind the Yan Dynasty coalition forces. Wang Jian led the troops to attack from the front. When the battle between the two sides was in full swing, Xin Sheng led his troops from the Yan Dynasty.
The Dai coalition forces broke out from the rear, and the coalition forces were in chaos in an instant! The defense line was quickly broken through, and the Dai army was scattered and retreated to defend Dai. The Yan army retreated towards Jicheng, and the Qin army followed behind and attacked continuously, capturing countless victories.
