"Hahahaha... General Li Xin is indeed well-deserved. He hides himself at home, but he is well aware of the situation in the Qin Dynasty. The sword is not old yet, Jing Yu admires him, admires him."
Li Xin and his son turned around and saw several people wearing luxurious brocade clothes walking into the mansion gate and crossing the courtyard.
Feng Tuo said loudly: "Li Xin, Li Nian, the king is here, why don't you come and pay homage to the king?"
Li Xin and Li Xin were shocked when they heard the expressions behind them. They ran all the way to King Qin, knelt down and said respectfully: "Li Xin (read) pays homage to the king!"
Ying Ziying hurriedly stepped forward to support Li Xin and said: "Two generals, please get up quickly. I am paying an offensive visit and disturbing General Li's leisure."
After Li Xin stood up, he looked at the majestic and tall man in front of him, who was nearly middle-aged in casual clothes and brocade robes. He cupped his hands and said, "I don't know that King Qin came to the hut with great arrogance. Xin failed to greet him with courtesy. He is really guilty. Please punish Xin for his lack of courtesy."
"
Ying Ziying: "Hahahaha, General Li, I am not a stubborn and powerful person, so you and I don't have to be so polite. I just heard some of the general's opinions on the situation in Qin outside the door, and I know that today's run was not in vain.
One trip, haha.”
Seeing that King Qin was so easy-going, Li Xin felt relieved and relieved his nervousness: "It's just a casual chat with the kid. Don't take it to heart, the king."
Ying Ziying took a look at the various swords and weapons displayed in the Li Mansion, as well as the wooden sand table placed under the shade of a tree not far away, and said with a smile: "Although the old general has been idle at home for more than ten years, he still has
Never idle."
Li Xin felt a little embarrassed in his heart and said: "No, it's just that Xin likes to play with these things since he was a child to pass the time and enjoy himself."
Ying Ziying: "Oh? Let me see how the general spends his time, haha."
Then Qin Sanshi took Jing Yu and Feng Tuo to the wooden sand table under the shade of the tree. Li Xin and his son also followed respectfully behind them.
The three kings of Qin looked at the sand table for a moment, and then Ying Jingyu said: "Wonderful, it is really wonderful."
Li Xin looked at the person who was speaking and saw that the young man was tall, even taller than himself, with a fierce and murderous look on his face.
Although he is not over 17 years old, there is no trace of immaturity on his face. Instead, he looks like a veteran general with a calm and steady temperament.
Li Xin and his son stood blankly for a moment looking at Ying Jingyu's extraordinary temperament. Just from his appearance and words, they were sure that this son was the best among men, giving people an inexplicable sense of security...
Li Xinwei bowed and cupped his hands: "This must be the Lieutenant Commander, Young Master Ying Jingyu."
Jing Yu looked up at Li Xin, smiled kindly and said, "General Li, you're so polite. I'm the one here."
Li Xin was the first to kneel down on one knee, and Li Nian behind him also knelt down inexplicably: "Greetings to Mr. Yu!"
Ying Jingyu shook his head helplessly: "General Li, please get up. My father and I have more things to discuss with the general, so there is no need for so many etiquettes."
Li Xin suddenly felt a little embarrassed and stood up, no longer reserved and said: "Master, this sand table is just for Xin to play around with on weekdays. I wonder what the master just said is so wonderful?"
Jingyu said: "Not necessarily, this is not done casually."
"I see that this sand table is not only very similar to Hangu Pass, but also has troops and subordinates marked at important positions. It would be difficult to create this rather exquisite formation without spending some thought."
Li Xinxin exclaimed in admiration: "Xindan cannot be praised by the young master like this. A defeated general would not dare to discuss military matters in front of the king."
Ying Ziying put down his left hand and said: "General Li, don't talk about the past anymore. The lonely king is here to ask for advice from General Li. Generals can speak freely and discuss state affairs together, but they must not hide their selfishness in their hearts."
After hearing this, Li Xin's face finally changed. From being cautious and solemn just now, his eyes were shining and his face was slightly excited.
He cupped his hands and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Ying Jingyu asked again: "Is General Li setting up the Hangu Pass Sand Formation for Liu Bang who is rushing to Guanzhong, or for Xiang Yu who is conquering the princes in Guandong?"
Li Xin stroked his beard and said with a flash of eyes: "For Xiang Yubu."
"Oh? Why not Liu Bang? If he wants to attack Hangu right now, we may not be able to defend him."
"Young Master is joking, I am afraid that Young Master can see the situation more clearly than Xin. I know very little about Liu Bang, but when I discussed with Feng Tuo, I had a general understanding that Liu Bang is a man who exploits tricks."
Li Xin paused for a moment, watching King Qin and others staring at him with burning eyes, waiting for the next step.
He stroked his beard again: "I heard that Liu Bang was once the chief of the Sishui pavilion in Pei County. He was a righteous man but was lazy and lazy. When he started his career, he took advantage of the chaos in the world and raised a team in Pei County."
"If the situation is true, we can only imagine whether Liu Bang will break through the most difficult Hangu Pass. I believe Liu Bang is more likely to take a detour and break through Wugu Pass."
Ying Jingyu's eyes lit up: "Oh? According to the general's words, it seems that there is a strategy to retreat from Liu Bang? Is that why the general set up a sand formation to study Xiang Yu's strategy for entering Guanzhong?"
Li Xin laughed: "Young Master has a sharp eye. I think even without Xinyan, I can retreat to the Six Kingdoms of Guandong, haha."
Jingyu said: "Haha, General Li is joking. When it comes to marching and fighting, arranging troops and forming formations, he is still far behind."
Li Xin stopped talking nonsense: "Xiang Yu is the strongest in the Kwantung army. It is said that Xiang Yu is about to unify the Kwantung princes. By then, Chu Xiang can gather hundreds of thousands of troops from the six countries to attack our Guanzhong. This will be a big disaster.
.”
Ying Jingyu frowned slightly and looked at the sand table: "General Li has been researching at home for many days. Can he find a way to defeat Xiang Yu?"
King Qin and others also looked at Li Xin expectantly, as if they wanted to hear a definite answer from him.
Li Xin shook his head lightly: "My lord, sir, if in the past when Zhao Gao or the Dong clan were in power, there were no generals in the army, military discipline declined, and the government was in chaos, the Qin State at that time would not have been able to defend Hangu even if Bai Qi was alive.
"
"However, the timing is neither too early nor too late for the king to regain power. According to the situation in Guandong, Xiang Yu may not be able to invade Guanzhong within two months."
"And our Qin Temple still has two months at most. If your Majesty is determined to change the shortcomings of the Qin Kingdom over the years, there is hope that we can build a combatable army in a short period of time."
King Qin Ying Ziying said: "General Li, don't worry, I have discussed the Guanzhong matters with Tingwei Feng Tuo before I came to the mansion. I will soon issue an order to cancel or abolish the unreasonable policies that harm the people and disturb the people one by one."
Li Xin nodded and said: "In this case, it only solved the internal problems of the Qin State. But I heard that Xiang Yu defeated Zhang Han and killed 200,000 of my Qin soldiers. His fighting method was quite unique."
"And Xiang Yu himself is extremely brave and is a famous general of our time. Xin knows very little about this person, so Xin has not yet found a way to withdraw from Xiang."
Everyone's faces wrinkled up after hearing this, and they were quite disappointed with the answer of "I haven't found a way to withdraw from the project yet."
Ying Ziying said: "It is not easy for General Li to sincerely tell people about the future situation. At that time, I can only do my best as a great Qin and pray for destiny to protect my great Qin. Alas..."
