Chapter 221: Qin Wulie King

; "Correct the old Qin, go to the country together, don't shed blood, don't stop fighting..." The high-spirited war songs in the city sounded from time to time, and King Wulie of Qin put his hands on the window sill, listening to the impassioned singing. In his heart, the fierce battle songs sung by countless rough voices are better than the songs sung by those kabukis in the palace with the accompaniment of melodious musical instruments, and they can make him feel better. relaxed and happy.

The Black Ice Terrace is the tallest building in Xianyang City, and the place where King Qin Wulie is standing is the highest place of the Black Ice Terrace. From the outside, the tallest palace in Xianyang is magnificent and beautiful, but If you walk in, you will be surprised. Compared with the magnificence of the outside, the inside of the spacious hall is empty, there is nothing, no decoration, no furniture, except for the big pillars that hug each other. I can't find anything else in it.

Of course, his special place is on the floor of this hall. The pure black stone is polished to a smoothness, and the white lines go back and forth, but what is outlined in the hall is a scene that includes the entire Central Plains. Maps of various countries, whenever King Qin Wulie walked in this hall, the entire Central Plains would be trampled under his feet.

The singing in the city seemed to never stop, one wave went away, and another wave rose again. King Qin Wulie's face was full of excitement, he turned around, and there was a clanging sound. In his own palace, the highest official of Qin The ruler was actually wearing a full set of armor, and every time he took a step, the armor pages collided with each other, making a dull sound.

"Correct the old Qin, go to the national calamity together, don't shed blood, don't stop fighting!" King Wulie of Qin hummed softly, his burly figure hurriedly walked in the hall, making noises, "The two lovers, every time they listen to Hearing this song, I felt my blood boil, my whole body was full of fighting spirit, and I wanted to get on my horse and charge into battle!"

In front of King Qin Wulie, two generals who also wore armored stomachs sat cross-legged on the icy ground, their helmets were placed in front of them, their hands were placed on their knees, they sat upright, their waists were straight. Although there are many wrinkles on the face, they are as if carved on the face, which looks extremely rigid. The other is about forty years old. At first glance, it seems to be a white-faced scholar, but if you look closely, you can see this. What makes people different is that his eyes are extremely sharp. In front of King Qin Wulie, he looks down most of the time, but occasionally looks up, but it is difficult to hide the murderous look.

These are the two most famous generals in Qin State, Yingteng and Li Xin.

Ying Teng belongs to the royal family and is the uncle of King Qin Wulie, while Li Xin is the childhood partner of King Qin Wulie. The two are also the most trusted people of King Qin Wulie. The standing army of the Qin Army in the hands of these two people accounts for almost 70% of the entire Qin State .

Hearing King Qin Wulie's emotion, Ying Teng frowned slightly, curled his lips and said nothing, but Li Xin smiled and said: "Your Majesty, your duty is to strategize on the temple grounds, to rejuvenate the country and strengthen the people, and to win a thousand miles, you will Leave it to me and the old general Yingteng. You don't have to count on such things as wielding a knife."

King Qin Wulie walked up to the two of them and sat down cross-legged, "You two are really boring, why don't you give me a hug and make me happy?"

"Praise the king, there are jesters in the palace." Ying Teng said honestly: "The king, the minister and Li Xin are all important ministers and generals of the country, and they will only tell the truth to the king. Often, but never to make the king happy."

King Qin Wulie's face darkened when he heard these unceremonious words.

"The old general's words are biased!" Li Xin smiled and tried to smooth things over, "You and I are on the battlefield, annihilating the enemy and destroying the country, naturally it will make the king happy."

Ying Teng turned around and looked at Li Xin, his face was rather dissatisfied, and he was about to say something more, but King Qin Wulie waved his hand, "That's all, I didn't come here to let you two come to make me happy. They are all my great generals, if you really understand how to make me happy, then Great Qin will be in danger."

Ying Teng nodded slightly, as if this was the right thing to say. Li Xin smiled slightly, but his eyelids drooped again.

"Let's talk about my plan, what do you think? Is it feasible? If it is feasible, what is the chance of winning? How much damage will our army suffer, and how many years will it take to recover?" King Qin Wulie stared at the two, asked.

Ying Teng looked at Li Xin, but Li Xin raised his hand and said, "Please tell the old general first."

Ying Teng nodded, "Your Majesty, if you want to take the Central Plains, you must first eliminate the border troubles. The strategy set by your majesty is not a problem. Our country and the Xiongnu have a very long border area, and they will come here every year. In order to deal with them, we spend a lot of money." The huge military and material resources made us not have enough power to sweep the Central Plains. Therefore, it is correct to get rid of them first in theory. I am just worried that the King of the Huns has assembled such a huge army this time. Can it be defeated?"

"Li Xin, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty, the Huns are dominated by cavalry, and they come and go like the wind. In the past, it was difficult for us to capture his main force for a decisive battle. This is why we have never been able to deal with them even though our national power is far superior to the Huns. This time we have With Ye Tiannan's help, the King of the Huns actually assembled the main force to take Zhao Guodai Commandery. For us, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If we give up this opportunity, we may never have the opportunity to suffer serious losses again. The Xiongnu will solve the problem in one fell swoop." Li Xin's tone was affirmative, "So, I agree with the king's idea."

"I don't disagree!" Ying Teng looked at King Qin Wulie, "The opportunity is indeed rare, but we must first evaluate the possible losses we may suffer."

"Uncle, did the Prime Minister look for you yesterday?" King Qin Wulie said suddenly.

"That's right!" Ying Teng didn't care about King Qin Wulie's attitude, "But he can't influence my thoughts, I just want to ask the king to be more cautious, and the plan proposed by the Prime Minister is not without feasibility. The land should be built extensively to form a whole, and once successful, only a small amount of troops will be needed to stop the Huns from invading."

King Qin Wulie smiled, "Has the Prime Minister ever told you how much manpower and material resources are needed to build a city wall of this scale, and how much money is consumed in our treasury?"

Ying Teng shook his head, "I don't know, he didn't say it, but it must be a lot. But I think, if you can spend money to solve the problem, you can save the blood of old Qin Erlang, and it is worthwhile."

"Uncle, you are wrong!" King Qin Wulie shook his head and said, "To build a city wall of this scale, it will take decades to complete the work, and even if it is completed, it may not be able to stop the Huns."

King Wulie of Qin lay down on the ground, drawing his hand across the lines on the ground, "Look, uncle, with such a broad border line, can we judge where the Huns will attack from? After building the city wall, the attack and defense will change. From then on, it will be When the enemy attacks and we defend, with a city wall, my old Qin people must be slack. We must know that defending the frontier is not in the city wall, but in the hearts of the people. Once the hearts of the people are slack, there will be thousands of miles of walls. Exhausting our Great Qin's national power, we will never think about going further east in a few decades. This strategy is simply not feasible."

Listening to King Qin Wulie's words, Ying Teng's face changed slightly.

King Qin Wulie smiled and said: "The prime minister has other plans. He and the people behind him don't want us to go east. It's their purpose to stick to the weak and keep the weak."

Ying Teng was silent for a while, "If the king is determined, the old minister will go all out."

"Okay!" King Wulie of Qin clapped his hands and laughed, "If you want to make a plan, first solve the problem of the Huns on the border. I'm old and sick, I should rest more, I can't bear him to work hard for the country, and tomorrow I will let him go home to take care of the elderly. What do you think, uncle?"

"Since your Majesty has made up his mind, the Prime Minister should abdicate to make way for the virtuous. Once the war starts, the army must have a solid rear and an endless supply of supplies. The Prime Minister does not approve of this move, so it is not suitable to stay in the coordinator Above the global seat." Ying Teng nodded.

"Uncle agrees, this matter will be easy!" Qin Wulie clapped his hands and laughed. "How to fight this battle? Do the two generals have some ideas?"

"In this battle, the most important thing is to be surprised. In this respect, we have already taken the lead." This time, Li Xin did not back down and spoke directly," Ye Tiannan's painstakingly planned move to attack Zhao from all sides provided us with An excellent opportunity, the Hun King thought that we would not let go of this great opportunity to attack Zhao, but unexpectedly our target was him, this battle has not yet begun, we have already seized the opportunity."

"Go on."

"In order to guard against us, the Zhao State transferred all of Zhao Mu's tens of thousands of standing troops in Dai County to the opposite side of us. This gave the Huns a chance to drive straight into Dai County. Dai County must suffer, but the Huns entered Dai County. Deep, our chances of victory are great. So the king said that this opportunity is once in a thousand years, and it is true. It is easy to enter, but difficult to come back." Li Xin laughed loudly.

"If you were to command, how would you deal with the Huns? After all, they must have more than 100,000 cavalry!" King Qin Wulie asked.

"Your Majesty already has a decision in mind, so you don't need to test your ministers?" Li Xin said with a smile, "Then please express it clearly."

Yingteng also nodded, "Since the king has an idea in his mind, he told the old minister and Li Xin, if it is feasible, we can discuss it later."

King Qin Wulie smiled wryly. This uncle with a temper as hard as a rock has never given himself face since he was a child. It has been decades and has never changed. But it is also very strange. The more I believed in him, the more facts told me that this was the right approach, because I had ascended the throne at the age of 20 to my early 40s, and in my 20-year career on the throne, from the battle for the throne at the beginning, to the In all kinds of open and secret battles later, this stone-like uncle always stood by his side.

"The Huns have more than 100,000 cavalry, and I, I will give you 200,000 horses, two to one force, including 20,000 cavalry, can you do it?" Qin Wulie said kingly.
