Victory or defeat

Something not too big or too small happened in Daxing City.

Liu Heng, General Zuo of the Qin Dynasty, Marquis of Duyang County, and the second most powerful general in the Qin Empire, fell ill.

It is a normal thing for people to suffer from various diseases after eating whole grains.

However, the emperor ordered the cause of the illness to be sealed, which made this matter full of fantasy.

The people of Chang'an don't talk during the day, but they chatter behind closed doors at night, and one or two weird and suppressed laughs can be heard every now and then.

At this moment, Yang Zheng was standing on the bedside, looking at Liu Heng, whose face was as white as paper, and he couldn't laugh or cry, "You are so brave, I have repeatedly ordered you not to take Wu Shi Powder, but you are eating it as a meal, and even prescribed an incompetent drug."

Zhe Da Da Da, what, do you want to imitate Sima Yan and bleed from the nine orifices?"

"I, I just want to give it a try, but I didn't expect this thing to be so powerful..." Liu Heng said weakly.

"You're fucking thirty-five or six this year. It's not what it used to be. What did I say before? You will die on a woman's belly sooner or later. Isn't retribution coming now?" Yang Zheng hated the iron.

There were many people in Liu Heng's family, so this scandal spread out for some reason and caused uproar in the city.

Every day, people watching the excitement stretched their heads to get closer to Liu's house.

"I'll tell you all the news later."

Nearly half of the casualties were maimed...

The officials heard the chill in his voice and hesitated, not daring to speak.

Kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred.

All in all, the Wu army suffered tens of thousands of casualties...

It is their traditional routine to report good news first and then bad news.

"It's worth it for me to follow His Majesty for the rest of my life..."

"I don't care about what's going on outside, but the people of Great Qin will never touch this thing!"

But looking at Zhao Ahqi's face, it seems that this battle is not that simple.

I used to think that it was stupid for the emperor to kill his heroes, but now that I have reached this position, I understand the three meanings.

It's not that the people laugh at the emperor, but they are envious. In many Qiang and Hu traditions, the more women there are, the more capable they are.

"Wei!" Su Hong's eyes flickered, as if he understood something.

After posting it for two days, the style of painting suddenly changed for some reason.

If Lu Kang did not attack Huo Yi but stayed in Lexiang, then Luo Xian would not be able to capture Lexiang.

The Qin army's 15,000 casualties were nothing, but Lu Kang and Zhong Limu's 8,000 casualties were serious injuries.

If Lu Kang is defeated, the barrier of Soochow will be broken down. The key point is that Luo Xian also captured many Jingzhou naval troops, laying the foundation for the future attack on Jianye.

"The Battle of Wuling..." Zhao Aqi glanced at Yang Zheng's face, "Generals Lu Kang and Zhongli Mu teamed up to attack our South Central Army. Governor Huo anticipated the enemy in advance and set up camp, but the Wu army captured the local Wuling barbarians.

With the help of Lu Kang, they attacked from all sides, Lu Kang and Zhong Limu attacked from two sides. Governor Huo did not know that Lu Kang was coming in person, so he fought fiercely, but was defeated by Lu Kang's elite troops. He lost three battles in a row, with nearly half of his soldiers killed and wounded, and retreated to Nanzhong..."

Mobei is so vast that wildfires are endless, the spring breeze blows and new tribes spring up like mushrooms after rain. It is difficult to eliminate them militarily, and it is difficult to occupy the territory, but this thing may be able to cripple them.

After Yang Zheng thought for a while, he understood the causes and consequences of this battle.

Unlike the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the Qin Dynasty absorbed the surrounding Qiang and Hu people, and had close exchanges with the Western Regions, so its folk customs were relatively open.

Yang Zheng suddenly thought of a word from later generations - dimensionality reduction strike...

"I won't allow you to die, and I won't allow you to touch women. If you violate the ban within two years, I will let you enter the palace and become a eunuch!" Yang Zheng directly gave the death order.

"What are the casualties of Wu's army?" Yang Zheng asked.

But then again, compared to the Jin Kingdom, the Qing Dynasty's policy of reducing the grassland was more benevolent.

What's more, there are 13,000 prisoners captured by Luo Xian. No matter how you look at it, you have won.

Su Hong cupped his hands and said: "With the power of General Zuo, what else can't be obtained in the world?"

"Okay!" Yang Zheng was overjoyed.

This thing is almost regarded as an "elixir" by the tribesmen in Mobei.

As the Emperor of Qin, he is certainly the most capable person...

"Read it." Yang Zheng rubbed his forehead.

It's not that others don't trust him, but after he is in a high position, his relationship with him becomes more subtle.

Yang Zheng initially wanted to export Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism to the Western Regions, Mobei, and the Plateau, but the effect of these things was too slow and required a certain amount of culture. The implementation in the Western Regions was effective, but progress in Mobei and the Plateau was slow, and there was no Five Stones

The dispersing effect is fast.

"The driven Wulingman, Shanyue and other troops suffered heavy casualties. More than 3,000 of them were all killed in the battle. The Wu army and Lu Kang had about 2,000 casualties. Zhongli Mu's 6,000 Wuling troops were not alive. After this battle, Lu Kang stationed troops in Wuling.

Rest.”

"Take good care of your health and don't touch women in the past two years. I will place them in Luoyang." Yang Zheng said warmly.

There are not many cities, and there are no intrigues. There are many people offended in Daxing City, but there is never any oppression of good people.

It is hard to imagine that a family has worked tirelessly for three generations to usurp the throne...

To be honest, since he ascended the throne, there are not many people that Yang Zheng can truly trust, Liu Heng is one of them.

Huo Yi was on an expedition, Lu Kang, and Zhongli Mu had the right location and people. If they fought like this, they couldn't be considered defeated.

It seems that Lu Kang is nothing more than this.

Yang Zheng said nothing, but in fact silence is connivance.

Lu Kang is no mediocre player.

The fight between the two sides was really fierce.

After so many years of life and death, he has long been regarded as his biological brother.

Yang Zheng was speechless for a while, "You were lucky this time and were rescued by Mr. Xuan Yan. Who can save you next time?"

"Then your Majesty might as well kill me."

If someone buys it, someone will sell it. Wushi Powder is expensive, and after taking it, you will feel like a fairy, and it can also aphrodisiac, so it is naturally very popular among the powerful.

However, victory or defeat is a common thing for military strategists.

Royal secrets have fascinated people since ancient times.

Unexpectedly, Luo Xian was not defeated, Yang Hu was not defeated, and Huo Yi was actually defeated...

Liu Heng groaned a few times, probably because he was tired, so he closed his eyes and stopped talking.

From the emperor's perspective, after the Sima family broke the window paper between monarch and ministers, everyone was a potential competitor.

Talking about the emperor Yang Zheng, he said that the emperor took over the Sima family's harem, and also learned the Sima family's Fang Zhongshu, and was busier every night than during the day...

Those who can afford five stone powder are the nobles in the tribe, and they are the ones who are ambitious.

Lexiang was not well-known in later generations, but it was a key business area of ​​Soochow.

"Your Majesty, Jingxiang is reporting urgently!" Zhao Aqi rushed over in a hurry.

Luo Xian's move is equivalent to the center blooming.

In one sentence, Yang Zheng didn't know what to say.

Some wealthy nobles closed their doors and produced their own products, and sold them to the Western Regions and Mobei, where they were more expensive than gold.

"The two generals Sheep and Luo first surrounded Xiling. There were deep ditches and high fortifications. The Wu army could not attack them, and our army could not break the city. On July 21st, Governor Luo led five thousand soldiers to go out at night and day to attack Lexiang and conquer it.

The formation killed Jingzhou Navy Superintendent Liuli, Chen Bu and five other generals, and captured more than 13,000 water infantry troops!"

On the way back, Yang Zheng asked the officials around him, "Didn't I issue edicts several times prohibiting Wu Shi Powder? Why are there still people taking it?"

Another great effect of Wushi Powder is to generate fever, which is just right to deal with the bitter cold in Mobei.

It would be fine if we only talk about Liu Heng.

Liu Heng curled his lips and said, "Isn't this all I have done in my life?"

This battle mobilized the troops and generals of the entire southwest. It would be unjustifiable if they could not defeat a single land resistance.

There are gains and there are losses.

"In addition, Zhong Hui raised an army of 150,000 in Jianye, marched by land and water, and came to Jingzhou. After a few days of rest on land, he counterattacked Lexiang. Governor Luo thought he was defeated, burned Lexiang City and the water village, and drove away the prisoners.

Return to the Xiling Camp by boat, and Lu Kang will regain Lexiang." Zhao Aqi glanced at Yang Zheng cautiously.

He doesn't know much about military affairs, how can Yang Zheng understand? Luo Xian is not fond of war and is not greedy for merit, which is exactly the style of a general.

When Zhong Hui comes, the situation in Jingzhou has changed. It's unclear who he is here to mess with...

Yang Zheng laughed twice and said, "There is a good show in Jingzhou."
