Chapter 751: King Qins Road to Unify the World (Part 1)
When the news of King Qin's assassination reached Yueyang, Li Yunze was not worried at all.
Sure enough, the envoy quickly revealed that the king was protected by his ancestors and was safe from danger, and even knocked down the assassin.
Li Yunze asked the envoy with a smile, "What is the specific situation? Please tell me in detail."
"Hi."
The envoy immediately described in detail what had happened in the Qilin Hall, especially the scene where the king was protected by his ancestors and was invulnerable, so that the assassin was stunned on the spot. It was as exciting as telling a story.
Avoiding the envoy's foaming at the mouth, Li Yunze only cared about one thing now: "How is the assassin?"
"When the palace guards rushed forward, the assassin knew he would die, so he committed suicide." When talking about Jing Ke, the envoy showed some admiration, but when he next mentioned the deputy envoy Qin Wuyang, his face was full of disdain.
"As for the Yan deputy envoy, he was so frightened that he peed. He was still trembling when he was stabbed into a sieve by the palace guards."
"Yan people..."
Li Yunze smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly, "If it were the Yan person named Zhang, hehe."
The envoy didn't know who the Yan man named Zhang was, and he didn't want to know.
He saluted respectfully and said, "Your Majesty is busy arranging the troops and horses to go out for the expedition. He specially ordered this little man to come and report to the Taifu. The treasure armor given by the Taifu is neither gold nor iron. I wonder what kind of treasure it is made of?"
"Where is the treasure?"
Li Yunze was also amused, "It's just porcelain."
The envoy naturally didn't believe it. The assassin's sharp dagger pierced it without leaving even a scratch. How could it be porcelain that broke when dropped?
Li Yunze naturally didn't explain anything and only gave one sentence.
"This is the power of science."
Ying Zheng didn't go to Li Yunze in person because he was really busy.
Jing Ke's assassination greatly shook Ying Zheng, making him no longer trust anyone from all over the world except the old Qin people.
Thanks to the repeated persuasion from Li Si, Han Fei and others, as well as Li Yunze's daily teachings on how to be generous, he managed to calm down the anger in his heart.
However, the anger still needs to be vented.
He sent troops to attack Yan State, but it was temporarily out of reach because Zhao State was in the middle.
Therefore, Ying Zheng sent an envoy to the Yan State and issued a death notice to the entire Yan State.
In order to avenge the destruction of Yan State, we must first defeat Zhao State. But if we want to defeat Zhao State, on the one hand, we must ask Guo Kai, the fifth general of the Warring States Period, to help, and on the other hand, we must defeat Zhao State's wings, that is, South Korea.
Destroyed with Wei State.
Without the food and material support from Han and Wei, Zhao State would not be able to bear it.
King Qin's order was quickly sent to the hands of the Qin army generals on the Korean front. They immediately suspended negotiations with South Korea and began to launch a fierce attack.
At this time, Korea, after years of continuous attacks by the Qin State, had weakened to the point where only the capital Yangzhai and a small surrounding area remained.
Basically it exists in name only.
The last strength of South Korea was concentrated in the capital, and envoys from all walks of life rushed non-stop to various countries for help.
But in the end, those who wanted to come to help were unable to come, and even Zhao and Wei were held back.
Those who were able to come, such as Chu and Qi, did so for various reasons. In Chu, the princess was the queen of Qin, while in Qi, most of the ministers were bribed, and they just wanted to live a peaceful life, so they were unwilling to come.
.
As a result, when the Qin army gathered dozens of Qin king's cannons and began to bombard the city wall of Yangzhai, the frightened King Han left the city and surrendered under the persuasion of a group of ministers.
Korea, which had been a country for nearly two hundred years, was declared destroyed.
It stands to reason that at this time, the Qin army should return to the country to recuperate, restock food and grass, and wait for another attack.
But this time it was different. Thanks to the Zheng Guo Canal built under the leadership of Zheng Guo, the Qin State's grain output increased significantly. There was no need to slowly accumulate grain, so Ying Zheng directly ordered to turn his troops to attack Wei.
The Wei State at this time was no longer the Wei State that Wu Qi led the Wei soldiers to defeat Qin State for decades without daring to look eastward.
Under the arrogant manipulations of generations of Wei kings, Wei's national power declined rapidly. In addition, it suffered severe beatings from Qin in recent years. In terms of national strength, morale, and military morale, it was only slightly stronger than South Korea.
In fact, when Lord Xinling stole the talisman to save Zhao and defeated the Qin army at the gate of Handan City, which was already at the end of its battle, it was the best opportunity for Wei to revive, and also the best opportunity for all countries to prevent Qin from unifying the world.
It was a pity that the King of Wei was jealous of his brother and directly deposed Lord Xinling and put him under house arrest until he was forced to death.
Now the King of Wei did not have to worry that Lord Xinling would come to snatch his throne. Unfortunately, Lord Xinling died here, and the Qin army arrived at Daliang City (Kaifeng).
King Wei was able to force Lord Xinling to death, but he had no choice but to defend Daliang City desperately against the Qin army outside the city.
Compared to the King of Han, the King of Wei at least did not surrender, but chose to resist to the end.
Originally, when the Qin army defeated Daliang City in history, they used a water attack strategy, directly breaking the embankments and diverting water from the Yellow River to flood Daliang City.
But this time, the Qin army used Qin Wang's cannon instead.
Facts have proved that the only difference between so-called solid city walls in the face of gunpowder weapons is the length of time they persist, not whether they can withstand it.
The Qin army bombarded intermittently for more than ten days, and finally destroyed the city wall of Daliang City. Then a large number of Qin troops surged in and rushed into this famous city.
The rapid demise of Korea and Wei brought huge shock to all countries in the world.
Among them, the most obvious change occurred in the state of Chu.
For a time, a large number of envoys from Chu State continued to go to Xianyang City, hoping to persuade the King of Qin to let Chu State go through the queen and the Chu people.
When Ying Zheng came to class and told these things to Li Yunze with a smile, Li Yunze just shook his head, "There is no need for this kind of country that does not even dare to resist, but is eager for the mercy of its enemies.
If they do not perish, God will not allow it."
Ying Zheng nodded repeatedly, not giving any face to the King of Chu because he was his father-in-law. He waved his hand contemptuously, "When the Zhao Kingdom is destroyed, I will send troops to destroy Chu!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, the performance of the kings of each country was very disappointing.
Not much to say about Han and Wei. Here in the Zhao Kingdom, King Zhao even ordered the death of Li Mu, the last straw, when the Qin army was separated from Handan City by a river.
The King of Chu only wanted to seek peace, and he only wanted to seek peace through nepotism. As a result, when Qin destroyed Chu, he was abandoned by the Chu people and made Changping Lord the King of Chu.
King Yan was not a man of backbone either. He beheaded Prince Dan directly and gave it to Ying Zheng to apologize, but even so, he could not avoid the fate of the country.
As for the King of Qi... Just look at the Confucianists who have the most say in Qi, and you will know what kind of thing the King of Qi is. Hundreds of thousands of Qi soldiers did not even fight, but just surrendered.
Compared to Ying Zheng's wise and powerful warriors, the kings of various countries are really too weak. They are the kind of useless snacks that harm their own people due to internal fighting, and they don't even dare to resist the Qin people due to external fighting.
Li Yunze smiled and said, "If you don't go to fight against Yan State, why don't you seek revenge from Prince Dan?"
"What kind of enemy is Prince Dan?" Ying Zheng snorted disdainfully. "As long as I send you a letter, King Yan will immediately send Prince Dan's head over. A waste who only sends people as assassins is not worthy of being my enemy."
.”
"Too."
Li Yunze nodded, "The Yan State is not strong enough, but the Chu State still has the strength to fight, so we must attack the Chu State first."
"correct."
Li Yunze asked, "How should the King of Han and the King of Wei deal with it?"
"They are just lost dogs." Upon hearing these two titles, Ying Zheng showed contempt. "I built a palace for them outside Xianyang Palace, and I will just live there honestly from now on."
"It's okay for King Han to say that he sent Zheng Guo to build the canal for Qin after all, although his motives were not pure." Li Yunze said, "But King Wei, forcing Wei Wuji to death is really a waste snack. Such a waste does not deserve to live. He should be sent to find Wei Wuji."
"
Ying Zheng looked surprised at these words.
You must know that after Li Yunze proposed the reform of government affairs before, he would never interfere in government affairs again. Now...
"Master, could it be that you have a crush on Wei Wuji?"
"He's just a tragic figure." Li Yunze waved his hands very simply, "I just don't want a scum like King Wei to live leisurely. Evil people who have done evil cannot be written off just because they put down the butcher's knife, and they can even enjoy their old age in peace.
This world shouldn't be like this."
Although there were still many doubts, Ying Zheng responded readily and called Han Fei to "pass my order to kill Wei Jia immediately!"
Looking at Han Fei's leaving figure, Li Yunze thought thoughtfully, "Has your Majesty become somewhat alienated from Li Si recently?"
"No." Ying Zheng, whose eyes flickered, touched his beard and interrupted, "I have always treated everyone equally."
"I taught you the way of checks and balances."
Li Yunze smiled, "The two of them are classmates. It is appropriate to divide and conquer, but one must also consider the character and magnanimity. Li Si's magnanimity...is not someone who can tolerate others."
Seeing that Ying Zheng was silent, Li Yunze stopped talking.
Just mention a few words, there is no need to say too much.
You must know that Ying Zheng is a person with very strong self-confidence, and pointing fingers at him will only arouse resentment.
Li Yunze only wanted to train him to be a golf captain and did not want to control his life.
After all, he has been a captain many times. This time, it is a different experience to train a captain.
"The speed of unifying the world will be accelerated." Li Yunze looked towards the distant west, "Otherwise, we will not be able to catch up with the wonderful war."
The wonderful battle he was talking about was naturally the war between the Romans and Hannibal.
If the fight between the two sides is intense and Da Qin suddenly joins in with a dimensionality reduction attack, it will definitely be very exciting.
Ying Zheng nodded, didn't say anything more, and continued the class.
He attaches great importance to the knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry, and takes time to take classes with Li Yunze every month.
The reason is very simple, because Ying Zheng has seen with his own eyes the effectiveness of mathematics and physics!
At the same time, he also sealed off scientific knowledge and only taught it to his son, never allowing it to be leaked.
Li Yunze didn't care at all about this. Ying Zheng would die one day anyway, and he would definitely not be able to hold on until he was gone.
After destroying Han and Wei, the Qin State temporarily entered a dormant stage. The main army returned to Guanzhong for repairs, and the vital young and strong labor force went home to start farming.
Compared with the constant famines in previous years, the weather in Daqin has become smoother in recent years.
From spring plowing to autumn harvest, there were basically no major disasters.
As a large amount of grain and grass were delivered to various warehouses, the Qin army, which had been dormant for nearly a year, began to gather again and prepare to leave Hangu Pass eastward.
Before the Qin army dispatched, a piece of good news spread from Zhao to Xianyang City.
Guo Kai, the strongest general in the Zhao Kingdom, successfully killed Li Mu!
