my grandfather was qin shi huang

Chapter 75
Wang Li was very confused.

Father, you praise Young Master Ying whenever you praise Young Master Ying, but why do you always pull me out to flog the corpse...

"Let's go, go with the old man to announce the good news to His Majesty..."

Old General Wang Jian was trembling with excitement, and hurriedly dragged Zhao Ying away.

This is a major event related to the combat effectiveness of the Great Qin soldiers!
The rest of Wang Li and Li Shu stood still, looking at each other.

Wang Li thought for a while, bid farewell to Li Shu, and turned to go to the barracks. After all, he was the lieutenant general of the young master Zhao Ying. It was okay for Zhao Ying not to go if he had something to do. As a lieutenant general, he had to keep an eye on him.Although he was reckless, he also knew how much Zhao Ying attached importance to these three thousand recruits.

Just like what my elder father told me in private.

"Young master, his ambition is not small. Those three thousand recruits are clearly the standard of three thousand generals. Li'er, you must not take this job lightly. If it is done well, it will be good for you and our Wang family. Speaking of which, it's all a big deal..."

……

General Li Xin's mansion.

Still the same as in the past, the crowd is empty.

The servants in the family were also dismissed, leaving only a few old people who had been with Li Xin in the old days.As soon as Li Shu entered, an old servant at home had already taken the reins with a smile.

"Little lady, you're back, the general is waiting for you inside..."

In the courtyard, Li Xin, who was only in his early thirties and had gray temples, held a long dagger in his forehand, slashing left and right in the courtyard, and the strong wind blew through him.

"The general's martial arts have become more and more refined over the years..."

An old servant next to him, leaning on a broom, couldn't help but sighed in embarrassment.

Li Xin is a young and strong faction that emerged during the unification of the world by the Great Qin. If Wang Jian was the pinnacle of military strategists at that time, then Li Xin was the master of the military situation.

During the entire process of unifying the world, all of Li Xin's performances were amazing.

Almost all battles were won with less, and the blitzkrieg and assault warfare were brought into full play. Even when he replaced the old general Wang Jian and attacked Chu with an army of 20, he made great strides all the way, directly hitting the city of Yanying .

If Lord Changping, as the son of the Chu State, had not rebelled behind him, cutting off his retreat and cutting off his logistics, it is even unknown whether Xiang Yan could follow him all the way and drive him to a desperate situation.

After Li Xin's death, another one who took the military situation to the extreme was Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu who was overwhelmed and mighty all over the world!

This style of play has extremely high requirements for the commander in chief. Not only must he have an accurate judgment on the situation on the battlefield, but he must also have extraordinary bravery and be able to take on the blade of the entire army!
Before Zhao Ying was born, it could even be said that even so far, Li Xin was still the pinnacle of Daqin's personal bravery.I don't know in the future, but at present, it can still be called the best in the world!

The first emperor personally sighed that General Li was so brave and powerful. Sima Qian also had to mention in the historical records that Qin general Li Xin was young and brave.

brave!

This is how history judged Li Xin.

This is also the reason why Zhao Ying, who has amazing personal talent, was directly taken down by others when he confronted Li Shu for the first time.

Li Shu is Li Xin's own daughter, she has been trained as a successor since she was a child, and even the major general Wang Li, who practiced martial arts since childhood, is not an opponent.

If Zhao Ying, who has only practiced martial arts for a few days and suffered for less than a month, is ordinary except for strength and speed, and is not even online in equestrian skills, then it is not history, but fantasy .

Speaking of which, the reason why Li Shu was able to win today was actually because of Takahashi's saddle and stirrups, which caught Li Shu off guard.

Otherwise, if it is really an equal-to-equal contest, let go of the contest, and if Li Shu does not compete with him in brute force, he will probably be defeated in all likelihood.

At this time, Li Xin stopped his posture, looked calm, shook his head, and casually inserted Chang Ge into the weapon rack beside him.

Looking at the girl who walked in, she seemed to be pointing.

"Individual bravery is not enough to rely on. When you are put on the battlefield, you have to be a powerful general like young master Ying..."

Li Shu slumped onto the stone bench next to her, pouted her lips, poured herself a cup of tea, drank it all in one gulp, and said coquettishly dissatisfied.

"Ah Weng, why do you need to raise others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige? Zhao Ying is just relying on some brute force. If he really meets A Weng, he will definitely beat him to the ground..."

Li Xin smiled, walked to sit down opposite his daughter.

"Tell me, how did you lose? Did someone blow your weapon away..."

Li Shu: ...

Although reluctant, Li Shu, who knew her Aunt's heart, still had to tell the whole process honestly.When he heard that Zhao Ying was able to make incredible dodging movements on horseback, Li Xin raised his eyebrows in surprise.

When he heard that it was just because of a strange saddle and the addition of a pair of stirrups, Li Xin couldn't help getting up, grabbed the scabbard, squatted on the ground, and began to draw.

"But so..."

"It looks almost..."

Li Shu tilted her head for a closer look, then squatted down on the ground again, based on her impressions, modified a few places with her fingers, and then stopped.

"It should be more or less like this..."

Leaning on his sword, Li Xin stared at Takahashi's saddle and stirrup on the ground, and stood silently for a long time, then suddenly heaved a long sigh, turned around and walked towards the study alone.

Looking at the back, it seems that he has aged a lot for a while.

"Aon—"

Li Shu couldn't help being anxious, she got up and was about to chase, but was stopped by the old servant at the side.

"The general feels uncomfortable, let him stay by himself for a while..."

The old servant sighed, looked at the Takahashi saddle and stirrups painted on the ground, and shook his head with a complicated expression.

"If there were these two things back then, even if Mr. Changping rebelled behind his back, there would be no way that Xiang Yan could follow the general's footsteps and make the general fall..."

Li Xin led 20 troops to attack Chu and was defeated.

Not only was more than half of the 20 troops lost, but even the first emperor, who had so much faith and favor in Li Xinchong, had to bow his head to the old general Wang Jian to admit his mistake, and went to the door in person to invite the old general Wang Jian to come out of the mountain.

In this battle, he was ashamed of the 20 brothers who followed his footsteps, and he was ashamed of the trust of the first emperor.

All these almost completely crushed Li Xin's self-confidence, like a hard thorn, it has been lying in Li Xin's heart, gnawing at the heart, making it difficult to rest day and night.

If it wasn't for the fear of being even more sorry to Emperor Shi Huang, he would almost have apologized with death.

When he saw the Takahashi saddle and stirrups that could greatly improve the cavalry's combat effectiveness, the old servant knew that his general would definitely think of that battle that made the general feel guilty until now.

The old servant is the soldier who followed Li Xin in the Northern and Southern Wars.

Hearing the old servant's words, Li Shu stopped sensiblely, but there was still a trace of unspeakable worry in her eyes.The old servant shook his head, and comforted him in a sighing tone.

"It's okay, don't worry, the general will be fine in a while, not to mention, he has found hope now..."

Upon hearing this, Li Shu nodded silently.

Subconsciously, he thought of Zhao Ying's hateful little face again.

Is he really worth Awon's attention?
……

Zhangtai Palace.

The First Emperor was sitting in the hall discussing matters with Feng Quji, Minister of the Right, Li Si, Minister of the Left, Meng Yi of the Shangqing, Feng Jie, the Doctor of Imperial History, Shi Teng of Zhi Su Nei, and Shi Lu of the Shaofu. Policy implementation and feedback.

In particular, regarding the Western Regions and the Hexi Corridor.

Zhao Gao stood behind him respectfully, waiting for the arrangement of the first emperor at any time.

He has served the first emperor for many years and is familiar with the habits of the first emperor. He does not need the first emperor to open his mouth, and he can always put the documents that the first emperor needs in the most comfortable position of the first emperor.

At this moment, Hei Hei, the chief executive of the Black Ice Terrace, was holding a roll of bamboo slips, and introduced the situation to everyone present in detail.

"Our people have sent back news one after another. The situation in the Western Regions is roughly the same as what the young master Ying said during the autumn hunting a few days ago. The most important thing is that there are not only all kinds of precious spices and all kinds of edible dishes. , and a large-scale racecourse, once the Hexi Corridor is opened up, it will benefit us Daqin infinitely..."

Listening carefully to Hei's inquiring and collecting information during this time, everyone's eyes could not help showing deep thought.

"Although General Mengtian was in Shangjun and drove the Xiongnu to the north, the Hexi Corridor is still under the control of the Xiongnu. The terrain here is long and narrow, with many Songshan mountains, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The old minister feels that it is not easy to resume war for the time being..."

Feng Quji frowned, Feng Jie nodded in agreement.

"Weichen also feels that the most important thing for next year is to appease the world, stabilize people's hearts, and recuperate. With the current situation, as long as it is delayed for another three to five years, my Daqin will eliminate many hidden dangers. When the time comes, I will move westward, and maybe I will Much better."

The First Emperor didn't speak, but looked at Shaofu Shilu and Nei Shiteng aside.

Nesten said respectfully and authentically.

"This year in the Kanto region, most of the taxes paid are insufficient, all relying on the support of the Guanzhong region, and the national treasury consumes a lot, and the expenditures are huge. In addition, tens of thousands of households have been relocated, and the coming winter has to be dealt with. COFCO is already quite nervous..."

Shaofu Shilu also carefully added.

"Weichen's situation is relatively better, especially with Huangsun Che and Huangsun Li's income, the situation has improved a lot, but the construction of Lingqu is at a critical time..."

The First Emperor didn't express his opinion, but just nodded slightly to express his understanding.

In fact, he reads all kinds of memorials every day, and he knows the situation in the middle school almost like the palm of his hand. He is here today just to take a look at the attitude of the ministers.

"If our cavalry can come and go like the wind like the barbarians, maybe we can bypass the Hexi Corridor, detour to the vicinity of Gaolan Mountain and Longshou Mountain, and enter the Hexi Corridor from the rear..."

Everyone understood what Meng Yi meant.

Unless Daqin can make a quick decision and win the Hexi Corridor quickly, otherwise, with Daqin's current situation, it is simply unable to support a protracted war.

Otherwise, once a fire breaks out in the backyard, they will lose sight of others and be very passive.

As for the detour to Gaolan Mountain and Longshou Mountain, no one would really believe the possibility of this. This is going to cross the desert wasteland that even the barbarians are afraid of. It's not like living on horseback since childhood, and wanting to go around the enemy's rear is undoubtedly a dream.

Meng Tian's statement was just a tactful reminder to Emperor Shihuang that it is not appropriate to start a war now.
