Chapter 372 Ying Zheng's Confidence

Xianyang.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

In the room, Ying Zheng was concentrating on reading the memorial when suddenly a panicked voice sounded, and Li Si hurried in with a complexion.

"what happened?"

Seeing Li Si's appearance, Ying Zheng was taken aback for a moment, then put down the memorial in his hand, his eyes fell on Li Si with a little doubt and asked.

"Your Majesty, forgive me... Julu! General Wang is defeated!"

Li Si cupped his hands and replied, but his face was extremely dignified.

When Ying Zheng ordered so many troops to reinforce Wang Jian, Li Siben also felt that this was already very appropriate, and there was nothing else to say.

But unexpectedly, under the suppression of such a huge force, Xiang Yu's side still won the victory.

"Failed?"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng's pupils shrank slightly.

When he first heard about Xiang Yu's army, he realized that it should be an extraordinary team, and he also attached great importance to this war.

That's why he sent so many troops, in order to prevent any accidents from Wang Jian's side, and to solve this matter directly and accurately.

But unexpectedly, Xiang Yu's combat power was so terrifying. Even in the face of such force suppression, he was able to defeat Wang Jian, which is really unimaginable.

"Yes, Your Majesty! According to reports, there are only a little over 30 left in the [-] army, and there are still tens of thousands in the local area. General Wang Jian is temporarily retreating, but the enemy will attack again soon."

"And if this news gets out, there must be anti-Qin forces who will rely on the local area to oppose us. Now Xianyang's troops are weak, let alone support, even defending Xianyang is also a problem."

"That's why I feel that Your Majesty should quickly call General Han Xin and Zhang Liang back!"

Li Si cupped his hands and replied, his expression became more serious.

He is very clear about how weak the internal military strength of Daqin is now. If it is said that without Han Xin and Zhang Liang they came back with soldiers and horses to support, with the current strength, they would have to face Xiang Yu's terrifying army. is extremely dangerous.

Hearing this, Ying Zheng frowned slightly, then lowered his head slightly, and began to think about this matter carefully.

"no!"

"The border still needs them to guard the border. All affairs, large and small, cannot be separated from their handling. Let them come back now, and the border that has been finally calmed down will definitely be chaotic!"

After thinking for a while, Ying Zheng raised his head slightly, and rejected Li Si's request with sharp eyes.

He knew the strength of Han Xin and Zhang Liang very well, so he was relieved to hand over the border to them to manage.

But at the same time, Ying Zheng also knew that if they were allowed to come back now, there would definitely be riots on the border if they asked about the war situation on Daqin's side.

At that time, the place that was finally calmed down will return to the dire straits.

"What time is it now, Your Majesty, but you can't control the border. If you don't handle Daqin properly, then Xianyang and Your Majesty will be in danger!"

Hearing this, Li Si was stunned.

Immediately afterwards, he began to persuasion again, and his eyes looked at Ying Zheng even more puzzled.

At present, it is obvious that solving Xiang Yu's matter is the most important thing, but what Ying Zheng is thinking about is the border issue, which makes Li Si very puzzled.

After all, if Daqin and Yingzheng are gone, then what's the use of this border.

"Da Qin will be fine!"

Regarding Li Si's question, Ying Zheng also reprimanded with a dignified expression, and his eyes were even more sharp.

Hearing this, Li Si was taken aback, looked at Ying Zheng's expression and became puzzled, wondering why Ying Zheng was so confident in saying such a thing.

You must know that Xiang Yu is a ruthless man, and the army he leads is even more outrageous. Under the suppression of that kind of force, he can still win the victory. To put it bluntly, he is a monster.

'etc!monster? '

'Could it be...'

While thinking about it, a figure of a person appeared in his mind, and Li Si's expression changed suddenly.

'Could it be the reason why His Majesty is so confident...'

Li Si couldn't help looking up at Ying Zheng again, only to see that Ying Zheng's gaze was very firm, and his face was not panicked at all, as if everything was under control.

"General! Your Majesty's messenger is here!"

In the barracks, Wang Jian was staring at the map, studying whether he could take advantage of the terrain to fight Xiang Yu again, when suddenly a voice sounded outside the door.

"Let him in!"

Hearing this, Wang Jian was overjoyed, and hurriedly gave instructions to the door.

Immediately, a messenger was welcomed into the door. It was a soldier in armor, dressed in dust and dust. It seemed that he rushed back as fast as possible.

"How many reinforcements will your Majesty give this time?"

Seeing the messenger, Wang Jian put down the map in his hand and stepped forward, looking forward to the messenger.

"Your Majesty asks the general to retreat."

The messenger clapped his hands back.

"retreat?"

Hearing this, Wang Jian was slightly taken aback, and even wondered if he had heard it wrong.

But seeing the messenger's face was serious, he didn't mean it was a joke at all, so he knew that it was indeed His Majesty's order.

"If I retreat, then Xiang Yu will definitely gather his troops and fight towards Xianyang. How can I retreat?"

Immediately, Wang Jian's eyes sharpened and he opened his mouth to reply, but his tone was very firm.

"Your Majesty said, the general doesn't have to worry about Daqin's consolation, just retreat with peace of mind."

Compared with Wang Jian's anxious expression, the messenger's expression was always calm, and he just replied lightly.

"It's been said that if you don't defend that guy, you will definitely lead your troops to rebel. How can this general feel relieved!"

Wang Jian still didn't understand this order.

"Yes! If we retreat, if Xiang Yu continues to lead troops to fight Xianyang, Daqin will be very dangerous."

Meng Tian also frowned and replied, naturally he knew how serious the consequences would be if he ignored Xiang Yu.

"The two generals should follow His Majesty's orders, as His Majesty has emphasized!"

Seeing that Wang Jian and Mengtian were so persistent, the messenger spoke earnestly again.

"But·······"

But even if the messenger said so, Wang Jian and Mengtian still frowned, uneasy about this matter.

"The subordinate's letter has been brought, so I will take my leave first, and I ask the general to trust His Majesty."

Knowing that he couldn't say anything, the messenger didn't hesitate, and replied directly, then ignored the two of them, turned around and walked out of the barracks.

"How to do?"

When the messenger left, Meng Tian looked at Wang Jian and asked.

"Get out."

After thinking for a long time, Wang Jian finally opened his mouth to give instructions, but he said it through gnashing of teeth. It seemed that the decision was made with great difficulty.

"What is His Majesty thinking?"

Hearing this decision, Meng Tian heaved a long sigh, and began to mutter with confusion on his face, wondering what Ying Zheng's purpose was for doing this.
