He is the deputy to the commander-in-chief of an army. He not only has the responsibility of assisting the commander-in-chief, but also has the power to temporarily command other subordinate generals and command the entire army when the commander-in-chief encounters unexpected situations, such as injury, illness or even death. It can be said that he is the deputy general of the army.
Among them, autonomy will be the following most important duties.
Now with the official appointment of coach Li Xin, it is also time for Qin Wangzheng to announce the appointment of deputy general.
In the main hall, countless people looked at the Meng family and his son who were standing beside Li Xin.
To be precise, they were looking at Meng Wu.
Meng Wu was the son of General Meng Ao.
After decades of fighting on the battlefield, he has rich experience in battlefield fighting. Now he has been specially recruited from outside by Qin Wangzheng. Who else can take the position of deputy general in this attack on Chu?
As long as the ministers have a little political experience, they all know what the next appointment will be. Even Wei Liao, who had always had a dark face, couldn't help but nodded slightly when he saw Meng Wu's mature and steady face.
It seems that the king is not too proud yet and has recalled Meng Wu to assist Li Xin in the expedition. This configuration should indeed be more secure.
Only two people in the palace had different expressions.
One was Zhao Tuo, whose eyes wandered on the faces of the Meng family and his son.
From Meng Tian's slightly proud smile and slightly raised chin, Zhao Tuo felt that Meng Tian might have been revealed to intend to appoint him as deputy general.
In this way, wouldn't Meng Tian be disappointed today?
When he thought of this, Zhao Tuo's eyes became strange when he looked at Meng Tian.
Just as Zhao Tuo thought, Meng Tian had a smile on his face at this moment.
He noticed that many ministers in the court were looking at "him", which made Meng Tian even more excited, and his face turned red with excitement.
The king's trusted chief, Shi Lisi, is smiling at me.
Bang Wei Wei Liao also nodded at me.
Even the old prime minister Wei Xiang opened his narrowed eyes and looked at my majestic body.
Zhao Tuo, who had just been conferred the title of Right Concubine Chief, was also looking up at me with reverence.
There is also the king, he is also looking at me and smiling. Although the smile looks a little weird, it is definitely a smile full of encouragement.
Although I, Meng Tian, am young, I am favored by the king!
Meng Tian tilted his head slightly and looked at Meng Wu beside him.
He never told Meng Wu that the king intended to appoint him as the deputy general to attack Chu. He just hoped to surprise his father in this hall.
Meng Tian proudly told his father that he wanted to use his position as deputy general to attack Chu.
Your son, Meng Wu, can already hold up the banner of the three generations of good generals of the Meng family, and will surely lead the Meng family to a more glorious future in the future.
What's wrong with this kid?
Meng Wu was slightly surprised and noticed the strange expression on Meng Tian beside him.
He was suddenly ordered back to Xianyang, and he estimated that he would probably be appointed as the deputy general to attack Chu. The looks from the officials around him made him more sure of this matter. This was considered a normal operation, after all, Meng Wu's qualifications were placed on top of the list.
Here, being a deputy general in attacking Chu is more than enough.
But why is his son looking at him like this?
Just when father and son looked at each other strangely.
The aloof Qin Wangzheng spoke.
"In this battle against Chu, the commander will be General Li Xin, and the deputy generals..."
….
Hearing this, Meng Tian straightened his chest and raised his head, even half of his feet were raised.
He just waited for the king to finish his words, then he would walk to the palace gracefully, and like Li Xin just now, he would speak out some heroic words with high spirits in front of the ministers.
Thank you, Your Majesty. My minister Meng Tian will definitely assist General Li Xin of the left. This attack on Chu will definitely be a great victory. The state of Chu will be destroyed for 800 years and the captives will be sacrificed in Xianyang!
It should be quite impressive to say this, and my father will definitely look at me with shock on his face.
Meng Tian had a rough idea in his mind, and when he thought of Meng Wu's surprised expression, he felt secretly happy, just like a child who wanted to show off in front of his father.
The next second, Qin Wangzheng’s words fell
Got off.
"The deputy general will be General Meng Wu. Both General Li and General Meng are the pillars of our Qin State. I hope this battle can demonstrate the power of our Qin State and destroy Chu Sheji and return!"
"Thanks……"
The first word came out of Meng Tian's mouth, and he raised his foot and took half a step. But then, Meng Tian froze on the spot, swallowing the words when they reached his throat.
Meng...wu?
How could it be the father!
Just when Meng Tian's face was filled with disbelief and his face turned red.
Meng Wu's tall body had passed by him and walked into the hall to thank him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, Meng Wu, will definitely assist General Li Xin on your left, and defeat Chu with a great victory. I will destroy the state of Chu for 800 years and return it!"
Meng Wu's majestic voice rang in his ears, making Meng Tian feel like his body was struck by lightning, trembling, his legs even became weak, and he was a little unsteady.
"General Zhonglang?"
Beside him, a military attaché noticed something was wrong with Meng Tian and asked softly.
"nothing."
Meng Tian gritted his teeth and said, his ears were red.
Perhaps hearing the movement behind him, Meng Wu turned around and saw Meng Tian's face red with excitement, even his hands trembling, and he couldn't help but frown.
I'm just a lieutenant, why do you need to be so excited?
He is almost thirty years old, and he is not stable at all. He is so rude in court. If this continues, how can he carry the banner of Mengshi's good general?
It seems that I need to teach him well when I go back.
…
"Meng Tian."
Deep in the Qin Palace, there is a pavilion.
Qin Wangzheng leaned on the railing and looked into the distance. When he thought of the scene during the court meeting, especially the strange expressions on the faces of Meng Tian and his son, he couldn't help but want to laugh.
[The problem of slow update of new chapters will be resolved soon.
Choose one of the two.
Qin Wangzheng rubbed his swollen temples.
Although he has other daughters, the other princesses are still young. Only one, Ying Yinman, is about to have hair extensions and is approaching the age of marriage.
Although Li You is mediocre, there is Li Si behind him. Zhao Tuo is talented and talented, but compared with Li Si, he is slightly inferior.
Qin Wangzheng thought about it again and again, and he didn't know how long it had passed before his expression calmed down.
He has made his decision.
He turned around and looked at Zhao Gao, who was standing by the pavilion.
"Zhao Gao, what kind of man do you think a widow's daughter deserves?"
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhao Gao was stunned. This is the king's family matter. How dare he express his opinions randomly? He can only find a word that is correct.
"In my humble opinion, given the dignity of the royal family, the man married to the princess will definitely be the pillar of the country."
Qin Wangzheng smiled.
"That's right, the daughter of a widow should be the pillar of the country."
"Yin Man is getting older, and in the blink of an eye he will soon be the age of Jiashi. I just don't know if there are any pillars of the country among my 200,000 troops who can match him in this battle against Chu."
Qin Wangzheng sighed, but his eyes were fixed on Zhao Gao, with a half-smile expression on his face.
Zhao Gao trembled and said in a low voice: "Our Qin country is full of talented people. If we come to this battle, there will be some young heroes who will make great contributions and will not let the king down."
He understood what the king meant.
"I hope so."
King Qin Zhengdan said calmly: "Please go down and let me be quiet for a while."
"only."
Zhao Gao respectfully withdrew.
Qin Wangzheng then turned around and leaned on the railing, looking at the palace under the high platform and the surging Wei River flowing outside the palace in the distance.
"Du Gong Liu, in Bin (bn) Siguan. Involving Wei and Wei caused chaos, and it is necessary to strengthen and forge, to stop the basics and to be rational..."
Qin Wangzheng whispered an ancient poem.
After a long while, he said quietly: "In the past, the ancestor of Zhou Dynasty, Liu, crossed the Jingwei River, took stones, used them to grind and forge them, and laid a solid foundation for his Zhou people's pavilion."
….
"Today, I wonder if I can find the stone I need from this battle against Chu to consolidate the foundation of our Qin State?"
"This attack on Chu should be regarded as a test."
…
"Only a pillar of the country is worthy of the king's daughter."
In the mansion, Zhao Tuo glanced at the silk book in his hand and kept the words on it firmly in his heart.
Then he threw it into the specially brought brazier and watched the smooth silk turn into ashes in the tongue of flames.
This is a message from the CRRC official.
But Zhao Tuo knew that behind this letter was probably the King's intention, and that the King was using Zhao Gao's hand to tell him.
If you want to be the daughter of the King of Qin, you must show your dazzling achievements in this battle against Chu, prove that you are the true pillar of the Qin State, and use your undoubted achievements to block all the enemies.
The questioning mouth of man.
Let Li You, Li Si, the Qin government and the public, and even everyone in the world have nothing to say about Princess Zhao Tuoshang.
Zhao Tuo murmured: "It seems that the king is partial to me."
To be honest, in this battle against Chu, Zhao Tuo had a much greater advantage than Li You.
He was the chief of the right concubine, and Li You was the chief of the left concubine.
He is Li Xin's "my arm", but Li You has no close relationship with Li Xin.
No matter how you look at it, Zhao Tuo has a much greater chance of making meritorious deeds than Li You.
Qin Wangzheng was also using this to hint to him that Zhao Tuo should take advantage of this advantage in his attack on Chu to make more meritorious deeds and surpass Li You. Only in this way can he be qualified as Princess Shang.
Zhao Tuo was naturally very grateful, but the problem was that in history, Li Xin attacked Chu and returned with a huge defeat!
He was chased by the Chu army for three days and three nights, breaking through two walls and killing seven captains.
Duwei, a local military attache of the Qin State. After being recruited into the army, he was equivalent to a military commander. He had about 5,000 people under his command. He was the middle and senior rank of the Qin Army.
General.
Even seven Qin generals at the level of captains and military commanders were killed by the Chu people. It can be seen how miserable the Qin army was in defeating Chu this time. The casualties of the soldiers were countless. It can be called the Qin army.
This was the most tragic war since the unification war was launched.
In such a huge defeat, not to mention Zhao Tuo, even Li Xin and Meng Wu would be in danger of dying if they were not careful.
It would be nice to come back alive.
Still want to make meritorious deeds?
Still making great achievements?
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I think you are trying to embarrass me, Zhao Tuo."
While Zhao Tuo was lamenting in the room, a servant came to report outside the door.
"Gentleman, someone from Mr. Fusu's house has sent a letter."
Zhao Tuo was stunned for a moment and hurriedly asked someone to fetch the letter.
Inside the sealed letterbox was a soft piece of silk with a subtle fragrance.
Smelling the familiar fragrance, Zhao Tuo knew that the letter was not written by Fusu, but by someone else.
Zhao Tuo smiled, opened the silk book, glanced at it, and was stunned.
There are only a few simple words on this silk book. The words are very simple and can be understood by anyone with a little education. But if this silk book is taken out to be read by others, even the most knowledgeable elders of this era will
, the most erudite and talented Confucian scholars are unable to understand the meaning behind it.
"Three test questions on Peach Blossom Island."
Zhao Tuo smiled, he knew what this meant.
….
This is a secret between Zhao Tuo and Ying Yinman.
Huang Yaoshi, the owner of Peach Blossom Island, promised his daughter Huang Rong to Ouyang Feng's nephew Ouyang Ke, but Huang Rong actually promised Guo Jing.
Huang Yaoshi set up three test questions on Peach Blossom Island and asked Guo Jing and Ouyang Ke to compete. The winner would be able to worship Huang Yaoshi as his father-in-law.
Win the beauty and return.
The plot in that story is very similar to the situation Zhao Tuo is facing now.
"This little girl is quite good at giving hints."
Zhao Tuo shook his head, the expression on his face became softer, and he raised his head and looked out the window.
There is the direction of Qin Palace.
…
Time flies and it is almost mid-September.
With this attack on Chu, the appointment of general Li Xin and deputy general Meng Wu was issued.
The conscripted Qin army was quickly assembled.
In the Qin army's camp, black flags were waving, and tens of thousands of Guanzhong elites were ready to go, waiting for their general to lead the expedition to the land of Jingchu in the south.
Qin Wangzheng stood on the swearing-in platform.
He looked at Li Xin, who was holding his head high and full of high spirits, and Meng Wu, who was standing beside Li Xin with a calm look on his face.
As well as the Qin generals and Qin soldiers in the rear who held their heads high and their chests high, with excited expressions on their faces.
Li You, Xin Wu...
Zhao Tuo?
Why does this kid have such a grimace on his face? He is about to go to the battlefield to perform meritorious service. Aren't you happy?
Qin Wangzheng didn't think much about it because it was time to swear an oath.
The King of Qin raised his ax and ax in his hand and said in a loud voice: "Alas! The people of Liushi, I swear to you: Jinglu has bullied the five elements, neglected the three righteousnesses, and the heaven will destroy his life. Now I will Wei Gong and carry out the punishment of heaven!"
"
"Exercise heaven's punishment and destroy the Jinglu!"
"Destroy the Jinglu and destroy the Chu State and the State!"
…
All the people in the audience cheered in unison, and the passionate and high-pitched voice spread throughout the wilderness. When people heard it, their whole bodies were filled with blood.
After swearing the oath, Qin Wangzheng ordered Li Xin to come to power, personally gave him an ax and ax in his hand, and gave Li Xin the tiger talisman for commanding an army of 200,000.
"General Li, I will leave the task of destroying Chu to you. When you return victorious, I will hold a banquet for you in Xianyang Palace and show your great achievements to the world!"
Li Xin knelt down and took the ax and tiger talisman given by the King of Qin.
He held his head high, his eyes full of pride, and spoke loudly to the king in front of him.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I, Li Xin, will destroy the state of Chu for 800 years and return. I will wipe out the Jing captives for Your Majesty and secure the heaven."
