The first thousand two hundred and thirty-five chapters
"Ying Zhen has met Marquis Wu Zhen!"
The road was flat, and even though the team was a little larger, it only took five days from Jiangling in Nanjun to reach the gate of Wancheng, where... the new governor of Nanyang County, Ying Hui, was already waiting on the side of the road to salute.
"No need to be polite."
"Let's go into town."
The heavy-armored cavalry cleared the way, and Zhou Qing slowly stepped down from the chariot and horse, followed by Nongyu in Suyun's skirt and shirt, looking at Ying Zhen in front of him and the city officials next to him.
He held his hands emptyly and spoke softly.
Ying Rui himself is still aware of this person. It is said that he has some connection with Yan Junchuiliji back then, but it has been slightly hidden for decades. Ying Rui has been in Tingwei's residence before.
Unexpectedly, he was appointed as the governor of Nanyang County. With the foundation laid by Ye Teng, as long as he adheres to Qin's laws, he will basically not make any big mistakes. A few years later, under the national government's assessment, it will not be difficult to be considered top-notch.
"Recently..., is there any movement over there in Chu State?"
After a stick of incense, Zhou Qing took a seat in the palace of the Lord of Wancheng City. He looked at the people on the left and right in the hall. He did not ask about political affairs and went straight to the topic.
"Wu Zhenhou!"
"There is no movement in the Chu Kingdom for the time being, but...according to the spies' reports, it is Xiang Yan from Xia Cai who has been traveling to and from the capital for days."
"I'm afraid this is a conspiracy."
Ying Hui.
He looks like a young man, with the burly physique of the Yingqin tribe in Longxi. His eyebrows are square and his eyes are lively, but his edges are somewhat sharp and inhuman.
He bowed his hands in a salute, looked up, and responded quickly.
Although he is the governor of Nanyang County, he can be considered an important person in the Qin court based on his current status in Nanyang County. However, compared with Marquis Wuzhen, there is still a huge gap.
"The next step is to see the battle at Wang Ben's place."
"Sure enough, a quick battle will make it difficult for the Chu State to mobilize its troops."
"If Beizhai is really blocked for more than a month, then... Nanyang County will make plans early in the morning, and starting today... the county captain will report directly to me."
"Every military general who is being organized will be reorganized, the treasury ordnance will be rectified, forged, and household registers will be compiled."
"Here in Nanyang, we should also gather grain, grass and baggage as a backup. Even if we can't use it now, we should plan for the future. The county guard should understand the importance of Nanyang."
Zhou Qing looked calm and nodded towards Ying Ge.
Be prepared!
"As it should be."
Ying Hao nodded repeatedly.
Marquis Wu Zhen said that he has been doing it these days, so he should not disappoint Marquis Wu Zhen, and... he also clearly understands the importance of Nanyang County.
Even if the Wei State can stop Wang Bi once or twice, it cannot be done for a long time, and it will eventually be destroyed. Then... in the future, the Qin State's troops will directly enter the Chu State's border, and Nanyang County will definitely become a supply place for the rear.
It can't be said that this is also a test for yourself by the king.
Don't even dare to relax at all.
"You must also fulfill your responsibilities."
Zhou Qing's eyes moved from Ying Zhen to the other people in the hall.
"Report!"
"Sir, there is the latest news from Wei State."
In the main hall, everyone was talking, but a loud and rapid voice came from outside the hall.
"News from Wei State?"
Ying Zhen looked moved, stood up quickly, and faced the waiter guarding outside the hall.
Since he took office, he has been paying attention to the affairs of the Wei State. Every move of the Wei State will cause every move of the Chu State, and every move of the Chu State will also affect his next move.
"This..., Marquis Wu Zhen, is a very good thing."
"Long Yangjun of Wei State returned from the army and took the place of Wei Mou in charge of Daliang City."
"Wei Wei Mou Ze wore heavy armor and led his soldiers to go to the main army in person. According to the news from Daliang City, he wanted to win in one battle and stabilize the situation in Wei."
"Please take a look."
Looking at the urgent report from Wei State that had just been delivered to him, Ying Hao quickly glanced at it and couldn't help but look overjoyed. He immediately... walked to the hall and handed the urgent report in his hand.
"Want to win one battle and stabilize the situation in Wei?"
"Asking for a fight?"
Zhou Qing was surprised. He had known about the news about Daliang City in the Wei State for several days. Rumors spread widely, which was probably a big torment for Wei Mou.
However, Xiao Wei Mou has not many solutions.
Or return power to the King of Wei!
That result is probably impossible.
Or vigorously suppress and forcibly stabilize the situation in Wei!
That result would only cause people in the central temple of Wei to panic, which was also inappropriate.
There is another way, which is to use the power of victory to eliminate all kinds of rumors in the city and establish the status of Wei Mou as the mainstay of the Wei Kingdom, so that even if the people in the city have different intentions, they will not impose too many constraints.
With the existence of Xiao Wei Mou, they can still continue to be stable, wealthy and prosperous.
It's just... I'm going to take the initiative to fight this soon!
It’s really fast!
"What the Wei State currently relies on is to stay in the wilderness and defend not to come out, waiting for the rescue of Qi State and Chu State in the future. If they really take the initiative to ask for a battle, that is... a fighter opportunity."
"Yes, yes, that's good news."
"Even so, we should be more alert to Chu's movements!"
But it was a good opportunity to fight. I am afraid that Wang Ben had been waiting for this day for a long time. In a head-on battle, the Qin army's elite soldiers would never be afraid of the Wei soldiers.
With the help of Zhang Han and Gai Nie, the final outcome will be decided before autumn!
"As it is."
Ying Zhi also had a happy face.
"Hahaha, this is a happy event."
"Don't the county guards hold a banquet to congratulate us?"
Zhou Ling stood with his hands clasped by his side, stood up from his head, looked at the people in the hall who were also enjoying each other at this moment, and laughed loudly.
"What Wu Zhenhou said is true."
Ying Gao was naturally overjoyed and quickly gave orders vigorously.
"There are rumors in Daliang City that Wei Mou wants to personally lead the troops to supervise the battle and defeat our army here, so as to stabilize the situation in Daliang City and calm the suspicions of many parties!"
Beizhai is where the troops are stationed!
In the shogunate's military tent, Wang Ben looked at the sand table in front of him with some joy. After nearly ten days, he finally got something. Perhaps Wei Mou knew that it was the Qin army's method, and it was his own method.
But...so what?
This is both conspiracy and conspiracy!
The key is the reaction in the entire Daliang City, and... the reaction of Daliang City is the most important thing. What Wei Mou thinks about it has never been important.
They did not summon many generals, they just discussed it here with Zhang Han, Gai Nie, and the Datian Order. Wei Wu soldiers would only hold on and not come out. It would be difficult for them to take the initiative to challenge the battle.
"Xiao Wei Mou is not from the royal family of Wei, and he does not have the prestige that Lord Xinling did in the royal family and was an important minister in the past!"
"After he became the general of the Wei State, although he trained the Wei soldiers heavily, he did not have the same outstanding military exploits as Lord Xinling. Both the government and the people knew about it. Therefore, there must be great suspicion in Daliang City."
"If you don't have enough prestige, but you are going to send troops to remonstrate, your power and position will be unstable. This trip to seek war is to rely on a victory to suppress the chaos in Daliang City."
A rather magnetic deep voice sounded. The man in white was holding a long sword. His long hair fell behind his back and he combed it into a bunch. He looked at the sand table in front of him. In fact, there was nothing to see.
In the past few days, the area of dozens of miles around both sides has been deep in the mind.
Wei Wu soldiers insisted on staying out of the way, and the formation could not change!
The Qin army also kept changing their formations and trying to break them, but fortunately... there were no major casualties between them, and even the casualties of the Wei warriors were greater.
The formation of the Wei soldiers was about to change. One hundred thousand Wei soldiers were able to move like arms. This was not so easy to do in a short period of time, but the Qin army could use the simplest method to break the formation.
"Victory?"
Hearing this, Wang Ben smiled softly on his dark face that had been baptized by many years of wind and frost. He was also very eager to win the battle, but he didn't know how Xiao Wei Mou was going to take the initiative to ask for a battle.
"In Zhang Han's opinion, the victory in this battle still lies in Daliang City."
"This person, Lord Longyang, has his records in Xianyang. He studied under the master Zou Yan of the Yinyang family. He has a calm and gentle temperament, and does not have the aggressiveness and military domineering spirit of Xiao Wei Mou."
"Furthermore, he has had a close relationship with the Wei royal family for decades. Now he is in charge of Daliang City instead of Xiao Wei Mou. As long as the King of Wei does not stop fighting and admonishing the troops, then... the more than 100,000 Wei soldiers will definitely be in chaos."
"This will give you a better chance of victory!"
Wearing light armor, his eyes moved on the sand table in front of him and fell on Wang Ben and Mr. Gai Nie in the shogunate. Since there was already a breakthrough in Daliang City, they should continue to move.
At this moment, in Wei Mou's mind, the threat from the Qin State is probably the second most important thing, and stabilizing the situation in the Wei State is the most important thing!
"General Zhang's words, even though Zheng Guo is not familiar with military affairs, he still thinks it is the best policy."
"After the military remonstrance, the relationship between the King of Wei and Wei Mou was at loggerheads. As expected, Qin's chess pieces in Daliang City helped the royal family and important ministers to rescue the King of Wei."
"Then... as Mr. Gai Nie said, Wei Mou's weak foundation in Daliang City is simply not enough to compete with the King of Wei. If a king's letter is issued to mobilize troops to defend the center, his troops will be in chaos."
"We can wait and work in peace, and we can defeat the Wei army and imprison them all around Daliang City."
On one side, Datian ordered Zheng Guo to listen quietly. As long as it did not involve real matters of dispatching troops and generals, he could still hear a few words and hear the words of General Wang Ben and the three generals.
This battle is actually very clear!
"Hahaha."
"Come up and attack!"
"Secondly, cut off the relationship!"
"Fight again!"
"Today we can appreciate the great talent that Sun Tzu had hundreds of years ago."
Wang Ben laughed loudly. Ever since he conquered Wei, he had thought a lot about using strong troops to make Wei surrender in fierce battles, but he never made any progress. Instead, with his constant strategy, the situation in front of him suddenly became clear.
Now I am whispering Sun Tzu's words in my mouth, as if I have heard the Tao.
"The rebellion in Daliang City had a great impact on the tens of thousands of troops led by Lord Long Yang and the tens of thousands of troops led by the brothers Wei Jiu."
"If nothing unexpected happens, Daejeon will be able to make real preparations."
Gai Nie also smiled. There is a saying in the National Protectorate Academy: war has always been a subsidiary of the temple!
That is to say, if you capture the thief first, capture the king. If the temple is in chaos according to the strategy, then the war will be worry-free. What's more, now that the sharp soldiers of the Qin army are unstoppable and clamoring for Wei Mou to leave Daliang City, the outcome is decided.
As he said this, he changed the topic and looked at Zheng Guo, the commander of Datian who had been waiting in the army for nearly a month.
