Chapter 177 Competing for National Power, How Long Can Qin State Last?
All the civil and military officials in the dynasty knew the disadvantages!
"I'm afraid this won't work!" Wang Ben walked to the center of the hall and stood side by side with Changsun Wuji. "The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are extremely brave, let alone an army of 200,000. If something shouldn't happen, then we, the Qin Dynasty, will
Wouldn’t it lead the wolf into the house?”
"Your Majesty, Emperor Qin!" Changsun Wuji took out a piece of silk from his sleeve, "This is the covenant written by your Majesty myself! I swear by your Majesty to all nations and peoples in the world that as long as they agree to the request, the Tang army will never invade Qin.
One inch of the country’s territory, one common people!”
This sentence made the people in the court begin to waver.
But Meng Yi laughed loudly and walked to the center of the hall.
"The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was also a powerful ruler. How could he be made to comply with a mere piece of silk?"
"Why did this lord make such remarks?" Changsun Wuji frowned, with a cold look on his face, "If you don't obey the oath, you will disrespect heaven and earth, and you will not treat all people! Your Majesty is a benevolent and righteous king. Once you have made an oath, you will
Absolutely won’t change!”
"What a man who doesn't respect the heaven and the earth, and who doesn't respect all the people!" Meng Yi showed a faint smile, "Your Majesty, Young Master Fusu is now at Dashan Pass, resisting the Yuan Dynasty's million-strong army for the Qin Dynasty!"
As soon as these words came out, it was like a stormy wave crashing on the shore, shocking everyone in the civil and military circles of the court.
"What? Young Master Fusu is actually in Dashanguan now? Why? Shouldn't Young Master Fusu be in Northern Xinjiang?"
"What's going on? Is the general your Majesty just mentioned the young master Fusu? Are those rumors true?"
"I heard that Young Master Fusu went on a killing spree in northern Xinjiang. He beat the Huns back six hundred miles and killed nearly 500,000 Huns. Are these...all rumors?"
"Isn't Young Master Fusu full of benevolence, justice and morality? How did he become...another Lord Wu'an?"
"If Master Fusu is really as brave as the rumors say, then why should we, the Qin Dynasty, be afraid of the Yuan Kingdom's millions of troops?"
"With Prince Fusu guarding Dashan Pass, the Qin Dynasty is simply impregnable! Without the support of the Tang State, what does it matter?"
"That is, Tang Guo wants to take advantage of Da Qin, and he is definitely hiding evil intentions! When he takes advantage of Da Qin, he will definitely delay his advance! If the battle at Dashan Pass goes to Yuan Guo, he will switch sides, and if it turns to Da Qin, he can also reap the benefits
!”
"What a treacherous trick!"
…
All the officials were furious.
Ying Zheng stared at Meng Yi, his eyes seeming to reproach him.
But Meng Yi responded with a fist in his hand.
It seems to say that the arrow must be fired when it is on the string!
The two only made eye contact, but they resolved the conflict.
"Is the brave general your Majesty mentioned the Young Master Fusu?" Changsun Wuji frowned, "The foreign minister has a saying that I don't know whether to say or not!"
"But it doesn't matter!"
Changsun Wuji clasped his fists and raised his hands, and said with a smile: "When big countries fight, they rely not only on the bravery and number of soldiers, but also on the competition of national strength! The Yuan Kingdom has a vast territory, covering the territory, people, and assets of more than ten countries! And the Qin Kingdom
How many territories, people, and assets are there?”
All civil and military officials were silent.
Changsun Wuji turned his head and looked around at the civil and military officials, his eyes as sinister as poisonous snakes.
"In the past, when Qin and Zhao fought, wasn't the competition about national strength?"
"Even if Qin's son Fusu is as brave as the rumors, Temujin is not a short-sighted person. If you can't attack by force, then compete with national strength! If you insist on not fighting, how many years can Qin hold on? Three years? Five years?
Or ten years? No matter how many years we hold on, the territory of the Yuan Kingdom will have many times more people than the Qin Kingdom."
"The Yuan State can drag the Qin State to a desperate situation! But what will the Qin State do then? There are Xiongnu in the north, Baiyue in the south, Yuan State in the west, and east..."
"Haha... If the Qin State does not make friends with the Tang State, does that mean it is at odds with the Tang State? Or... seeing that the war is not going well, the Yuan State sends an envoy to the Tang Dynasty to lobby my Majesty to send troops and let the
Qin is surrounded by enemies from both sides! How long can Qin hold on?"
Changsun Wuji's words made all the civil and military officials in the court furious.
But there is nothing you can do.
Because everything Changsun Wuji said is true.
"Well, what you said makes sense!" Ying Zheng looked solemn, "But I still need to discuss this matter! You go down first and go to the hotel to rest!"
"I obey!" Changsun Wuji raised his lips slightly, showing the joy of victory, "Foreign ministers, please retire!"
After Changsun Wuji left, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were divided into two factions.
Wu Zhuzhan fought, and before the Tang Dynasty could react, he sent troops to destroy the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop.
The author and.
Following the wish of the Emperor of Tang, Fusu went to Tang after the battle and married Princess Changle, thus promoting the alliance between Qin and Tang.
Among them, although Zhao Gao and Hu Hai were civil servants, they strongly opposed the statement of "maintaining harmony".
If Fusu went to the Tang Dynasty and became the Tang Dynasty's consort, wouldn't it be equivalent to letting the tiger return to the mountain and letting the dragon fall into the abyss?
When it comes back, it will be unstoppable.
Now there are signs that Yingzheng is leaning towards the young master Fusu, and Fusu must not be allowed to gain power again!
Zhao Gao walked to the center of the hall, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, although the Yuan Kingdom is fierce, and the Tang Kingdom is also eyeing it, your majesty is so powerful that the gods and ghosts are frightened! Even if the two countries join forces, they are no match for your majesty! Your majesty only needs to let Meng Tian
, Tu Sui leads his army back! Then we can stop the two countries!"
All the officials in the DPRK quickly agreed!
"Yes! That's so right! Meng Tian led an army of 300,000 to defend the Xiongnu in the north, and Tu Sui also had an army of 200,000 to march south to the land of Baiyue. As long as the two armies come together, they can definitely stop any country!"
"The small Tang State and the small Yuan State are no match for our Great Qin! Your Majesty, there is no need to pay attention to the Tang envoy!"
"Just now that guy was in the main hall, arrogant and arrogant. I just wanted to kill him with one sword! If the two countries were at war and didn't kill him, I would really do that!"
"Your Majesty, although Wang Jian is old, he can still lead troops to fight. As long as Wang Jian is allowed to hold on to the east, he can defend the Tang army! At the same time, let Meng Tian and Tu Sui lead their troops to march westward with lightning speed.
If you attack the Yuan Kingdom, you will definitely gain the final victory!"
…
The ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government expressed their opinions one after another.
Meng Yi and Wang Ben were hesitant.
"I understand the opinions of the ministers!" Ying Zheng looked around at everyone, "But I will consider this matter carefully! In the past ten days or so, I have visited the counties and counties near Xianyang and found that the people are living and working in peace and contentment, and they are in a prosperous scene.
I am very relieved! After some time, I want to go further for inspection! I will let Prime Minister Feng take charge of matters in the court!"
"No!" Feng Qu quickly walked to the center of the hall, cupped his fists and raised his hands in response.
"Retreat!"
…
After retiring from the court, Ying Zheng asked Meng Yi, Wang Ben and Li Si to stay.
The four of them discussed for a long time in Zhangtai Palace.
Finally come to a conclusion.
Agree to marry with the Tang Dynasty.
Fusu will marry Princess Changle in Xianyang.
The Tang army must march on the designated route and head to Dashan Pass!
But would Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty agree to these conclusions?
No way of knowing.
After reaching the final conclusion, Changsun Wuji did not make any remarks, but immediately set off and returned to Datang overnight.
