Chapter 79 Meng Yi's Plan

Wang Li led his army to evacuate quickly. The entire Jiuyuan County had no defensive force. Many county towns surrendered. Many officials also respectfully welcomed and loyal to Fusu. After the last punishment of Meng Yi and Governor Chen issued an announcement clarifying that it was not Fusu who set fire to the mountain.

After the order, Fusu's reputation gradually recovered.

At this time, the officials of Shangjun surrendered to the city, and the people naturally lined the streets to welcome them. Fusu led the troops to recover the entire Jiuyuan County without any effort, which made Zhang Yan and others and the 150,000 troops gain momentum.

In the government office of Jiuyuan County, Jiuyuan County, Fusu sat in the lobby. A group of generals lined up on both sides, followed by the magistrates of the counties in Jiuyuan County. Fusu summoned everyone here, and he swept

Everyone, Zhang Yan and others were fine, but the county magistrates of Jiuyuan County did not dare to raise their heads. Fusu thought for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "The generals are indispensable for the capture of Jiuyuan County this time. At the same time,

Fusu is very pleased that the governor of Jiuyuan County can lead the county magistrates to surrender to the city. After all, you are all officials appointed by our great Qin, and it is also something I would like to see if we can meet each other without fighting."

The governor of Jiuyuan County came out, saluted respectfully, and then said calmly: "The eldest son of the emperor is our benevolent and righteous king of the Qin Dynasty. It is an honor for us to be loyal and loyal. How dare we close the door and refuse to open the door?"

"Humph!" Zhang Yan curled his face and snorted with a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

This action embarrassed the Jiuyuan County Sheriff and the county magistrates. "We are willing to be loyal to the eldest son of Emperor Fusu. Only the eldest son of the emperor can stay in Xianyang Palace." All the county magistrates immediately came out and said in unison,

I hope Fusu won't dwell on past grudges.

"I know all your intentions, so you don't need to worry so much. If I, Fusu, don't even have this kind of heart, how can I pretend to be the people of the world?" Fusu waved his hands to signal these officials not to worry, he said calmly.

said the voice.

After hearing this, the faces of these people improved a lot, and then they said in unison: "We are willing to ride for the emperor's eldest son."

"It doesn't matter if you are in front of you or behind you. As long as you do your part and show more consideration for the sufferings of the people, it is the greatest loyalty to me, Fusu. Do you all understand? If there are no people, how can you and me be here?

Where is Da Qin?" Fusu raised his brows and said in a tone of voice that sounded like a question.

The county magistrates who had been slightly relieved at first became uneasy again when they were asked this question. Fortunately, they were not fools. They naturally understood the meaning of Fusu's words, so they expressed their opinions again: "Please don't worry, eldest son of the emperor, we will wait for you."

Keep the people in mind and put the people first in everything."

"Yes!" Fusu nodded with satisfaction this time, waved his hand and said, "You all go down first."

"No!" The group of county magistrates and the Jiuyuan County Sheriff respectfully retreated.

After leaving the lobby, these county magistrates gathered around the county governor. One of them said worriedly: "County Governor Zhang, what do you think of what Mr. Fusu just said? Is the eldest son of the emperor really not going to hold us accountable?"

The Sheriff of Jiuyuan County gently stroked his beard and said: "Don't slander behind your back again, watch your head!" Seeing the man shrinking his neck, Sheriff Zhang continued: "The eldest son of the Emperor is a man of benevolence and righteousness.

Everyone knows that since we sincerely surrender, the emperor's eldest son will naturally not tolerate us. So, you must not discuss it again, lest others hear it and get burned."

"Well, what the governor said is absolutely true. We should obey the instructions of the eldest son of the emperor and be kind to the people in the future." Someone else agreed.

"What I didn't expect was that Wang Li was defeated so quickly, and left Jiuyuan County in a hurry without being able to organize a defense." Governor Zhang pondered for a while, and then said: "You can leave first.

, I will wait here in case the eldest son of the emperor needs anything."

After hearing Governor Zhang's instructions, the county magistrates gathered together and left. In the lobby, Fusu was discussing with Zhang Yan and others the attack on Sanchuan County. This defeat of Wang Li laid the foundation for Fusu's great strategy.

This laid the foundation, and in this way, no one in the entire northern part of the Qin Dynasty could resist Fusu's 150,000 troops.

"The emperor's eldest son. The general's intention is that our army will attack Sanchuan County immediately without giving Zhao Gao the slightest chance to prepare. After taking this county with thunderous momentum, we can attack Xianyang by advancing west and Yingying by advancing east.

Sichuan and Dang counties are places where our army can advance and retreat freely. Therefore, the last general asked for orders to send troops to Sanchuan County from now on." Zhang Yan immediately came out and asked and analyzed.

Fusu looked at him, and then at Meng Yi, who was standing at the outermost side of the hall. Even though Meng Yi was a groom now, Fusu knew the latter's abilities. The reason why he was able to defeat Wang Li last time was because of Meng Yi's strategic skills.

It is inevitable that if he had not come up with the strategy of dividing his troops to stop them, I am afraid that the entire army would have been surrounded by Wang Li, Yan Le and Bai Gongyuan when they went to the county.

Fusu immediately asked: "Meng Yi, what do you think?"

After hearing the question, the other generals in the hall had no doubts. Meng Yi was Meng Tian's younger brother, and he was familiar with them. Moreover, he had contributed to the last battle in Shangjun, so for the latter's groom,

But no one looked down upon his identity.

Meng Yi pondered for a moment. After setting fire to the mountain last time, he became very silent. Unless Fusu asked, he would not take the initiative to speak out. It was not that he had any feelings for Fusu.

It was a grudge, but because he knew how huge the impact of the last incident was, and he felt extremely guilty. Otherwise, how could he possibly express his inner thoughts of revenge?

"The emperor's eldest son, according to the villain's opinion, also agrees with General Zhang Yan's suggestion. However, there is another point that I don't know if the emperor's eldest son has considered. If all our troops capture Sanchuan County, then go straight to Dang County Daliang to annihilate the rebels.

If so, then who should guard against the Huns? Don’t forget, if General Meng Tian hadn’t garrisoned the Great Wall and prevented the Huns’ cavalry from going south, I’m afraid our northern border of Da Qin wouldn’t be so stable.” Meng Yi thought about it.

, expressed his opinion.

"This?" When the generals and Fusu heard this, their expressions changed. They had indeed ignored such a practical problem. Before, they were thinking about how to defeat Wang Li and how to solve the problem of transporting grain. Now this

The two problems have been solved. Just when everyone was preparing to fight, Meng Yi raised a new problem that urgently needed to be solved.

"What Meng Yi said is extremely important, what do you think?" Fusu frowned and asked in a deep voice.

This question made the generals think about it. There is no need to move forward with the situation on the northern border. In the past, there were 300,000 troops stationed and General Meng Tian was in charge. The Huns did not dare to step into the territory of Qin. But now

, Meng Tian was dead, and only 150,000 of the 300,000-strong army remained. If the Xiongnu knew the news, they might really make a comeback.

With Fusu's benevolent heart, he naturally couldn't bear to see the people die under the Huns' cavalry, and he couldn't bear to see the foundation that his father had worked so hard for being occupied by the Huns. The generals also knew this, so they were hesitant now.

"What does the eldest son of the emperor mean?" Zhang Yan fortunately asked this question to Fusu again. After all, it was the latter who made the final decision. Even if they did not want to stay with their troops, they still had to obey Fusu's arrangements, so

Simply let the latter express his thoughts to avoid everyone arguing.

Fusu frowned, obviously struggling to think. After a moment, Fusu looked at Meng Yi and asked expectantly: "Meng Yi, since you have discovered this problem, you must have the answer in your mind, so you said

Come out."

"No!" Meng Yi didn't show any pretense. Since Fusu asked, he honestly said what he was thinking, and then he said respectfully: "The eldest son of the emperor, please don't throw it away from Shangjun and Jiuyuan County. I

The current advantage of our army is based on the possession of these two counties. If our entire army moves forward to capture Sanchuan County, and then directly capture Dang County Daliang, then the rear will be empty. Even if the Huns do not invade, as long as Zhao Gao

If we send troops to conquer, our army will fall into a situation without rear support, and the situation will be very bad at that time. Therefore, Meng Yi thought that not only to prevent the Xiongnu, but also to prevent Zhao Gao's conquest, our army

They should all leave behind defenders."

"Pa--" Fusu slapped the table, causing all the generals to notice. He stood up, nodded slightly, and said: "What Meng Yi said is very much what I want, do you all understand?

Our army must now allocate troops to stay in Shangjun and Jiuyuan counties. Zhang Yan, please tell me."

"No!" Zhang Yan heard the order and immediately came out, and then continued his analysis according to Fusu's intention: "Our army currently has 150,000 soldiers. If we divide our troops for defense, I mean to divide our troops into 50,000, of which 10,000 are stationed in Shangjun and Xiao.

At the junction of the Great Wall to prevent Bai Gongyuan from invading, the remaining 40,000 men were stationed along the Great Wall to defend against the Huns. What do you think, the eldest son of the emperor?"

Fusu heard this and felt that it was in line with the way of using troops. As long as Xiaoguan was defended between Shangjun and Xianyang, 10,000 people should be enough. Then he said: "Just do what you said."

"General, I will obey your order!" Zhang Yan was overjoyed and immediately accepted the order.

Meng Yi, who was at the back, groaned and finally said: "Please ask the eldest son of the emperor to leave 10,000 people to defend Hangu Pass after conquering Sanchuan County, in case Zhao Gao takes advantage of us to move Dang County from behind.

A surprise attack on my army."

"Of course, this is what you think of Meng Yi comprehensively. But..." Fusu sighed slightly. He knew that Meng Yi was talented, but how to restore his original official position now is still worthy of discussion.

Meng Yi understood Fusu's concerns, so he was not troubled by these identities. He said softly: "Yi is satisfied to be able to make suggestions beside the eldest son of the emperor."

Fusu nodded, looked at Meng Yi helplessly, and said, "I have wronged you these days. Once the rebels in Dang County are defeated, I will restore your status and personally ask the people of the world to forgive you.
