Confucianism in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 10 Lord Xinling worships the general

The night became thicker, and there were only a few stars hanging alone in the dark night sky, showing loneliness and desolation.

A carriage slowly stopped in front of a mansion, and a middle-aged man stepped out of the carriage, and his figure quickly disappeared under the cover of the night.

Stepping into the hall, the person he wants to meet is inside the house.The man saluted and said, "Wei Yong has met Mr. Xinling."

Lord Xinling stood up and helped him up, "Wei Sikong, please be polite."

There are only two people here, so there is no need to pretend and go straight to the topic.

"I heard that Your Majesty will soon worship you as the General and take charge of the Hedong Legion. You can act according to your own discretion." Wei Yong said.

Although Mr. Xinling had already expected it in his heart, he was still moved by it.

After Wei Yong left, Ji Yanran walked in with Fu Nian.

"My lord, but this matter has already been accomplished." Ji Yanran asked.

"What should I do next?" Lord Xinling looked at Ji Yanran.

"Qin attacked Wei seven times, entered Yuzhong five times, all the border towns were pulled out, the Wentai fell, and the capital was burned. Daliang was not a suitable choice for raising troops. When troops were stationed in Anyi, the front of the troops was directed at Xianyang.

Lu Buwei took power, still using long-distance and short-range attacks. In five years, he took over 37 cities including Jinyang, Yuci, Xincheng, and Langmeng from Zhao Guo.Cut off my country of Wei, Chenggao, and the two cities of Xingqiu, occupy Nanliang and Zhudi in South Korea, and the world will suffer from Qin for a long time.

If the son sends troops, Zhao and Han should respond. At this time, the king gathers heroes from all over the world in Anyi, and the rest of the kingdoms will send troops to help when they hear the name of Lord Xinling. "

Ji Yanran talked eloquently with a determined expression.

"Then act according to this." Lord Xinling nodded and praised after hearing this, all these things should have fulfilled his wish.

"It's just that the six countries are not on the same mind, and they restrain each other, and the alliance of the six countries will inevitably involve many interests, and it may be difficult to achieve the goal." Ji Yanran reminded, "You still need to make preparations earlier."

Lord Xinling said, "I know it myself. To be commander-in-chief is to command the whole army. I have confidence in myself."

Fu Nian on the side just listens more and talks less, he has never been a person who likes to talk too much.

The difference from previous history is that during the Battle of Hexi three years ago, the coalition forces of Zhao and Wei recaptured the important town of Anyi, and once again opened up the connection between Hexi and Hedong.

This is the first time in his life that he has been involved in the chaotic world.

...............

That year, King Yu of Wei built a platform on the bank of the Bian River, worshiping his brother Xinling Lord Wei Wuji as the general, and Pang Nuan as the deputy.

Under the high platform, Wei soldiers lined up on the left and right. The soldiers were all wearing armor and wearing helmets, holding long halberds, and they were full of murderous aura.

Lord Xinling was wearing armor, standing on a high platform, looking down at the troops, his face was full of confidence and solemnity.

"Under the order of the king, the general intends to attack the Qin State, who would like to join me in attacking a powerful enemy!" Lord Xinling asked loudly.

"I swear to follow the general to the death!" The Wei soldiers below raised their arms and shouted in unison, which was deafening.

Lord Xinling nodded, raised his hand and waved the command flag.

The horn sounded suddenly, and Wei Wuzu ran forward immediately, in uniform, swallowing mountains and rivers.

"Where is Ji Huan!"

"The end is here!" Ji Huance stepped forward immediately, cupping his fists.

"You lead the Huoziying and the five thousand steppers to go one step ahead, to be the vanguard and to open the way for all the armies."

"Here!" Ji Huan responded, turned around and joined the army.

"Li Pi, Bo She, let you two be the general of the left army and the general of the right army, and lead the left and right armies to go out with this general!"

"No!" The two agreed in unison and retreated to the formation.

Lord Xinling finally looked at Pang Nuan, and said, "General Pang, I ordered you to be the general of the rear army to take care of the logistics. I know you are the talent of a general, so I can rest assured that I entrust this important task to you."

"I will live up to your fate!" Pang Nuan cupped his hands.

"Let's go!"

Lord Xinling waved his command flag, drums were beating, and the Wei army rushed northward like a torrent, with great momentum.

When leaving the city, the common people stood side by side to watch and talk about it.

"The Qin people have violated the border again!"

"The Qin people bullied me too much! The old man hates me! My eldest and second children died under the iron hooves of the Qin people. If I hadn't been old, I would have driven these Qin dogs out even if I risked my life!"

"Hey, the people of Qin are brave and good at fighting. Where can we win the battle? Let's hope that there will be no trouble!"

"I'm afraid you are a spy of the Qin people!" The crowd glared angrily.

Regardless of the discussion of the onlookers, Wei Jun still set off from Wangji and headed for Anyi.

.........

Zhao Guo HD, in the Zhao Palace, a group of ministers are separated from the left and right, with serious expressions.

Sitting high on the throne, Zhao Wangdan glanced at everyone, "This time Lord Xinling of Wei Guo sent troops to Anyi, and wants to do the same thing again, what do you think?"

Lord Xinling was in exile in Zhao State back then, and he had always been friends with Zhao State's ministers, and the pro-Wei faction was quite influential in Zhao State's court.

If the ministers support Hezong, it will be exactly what he wants.

It's just that his health has gotten worse over the years, it's okay for him to be around, but if he goes, he might not be restrained by the new king, he has already made a decision in his heart.

Zuo Situ Zhao Hao stepped forward and said: "Mr. Xinling has great ambitions, which is really rare. It's just that this move is quite risky. Qin is strong and powerful. If you rush to send troops, you may be retaliated by Qin. The consequences are worrisome. Since the Changping War, Our country of Zhao is powerless to fight any more!"

The Battle of Changping more than ten years ago was the pain of his life.

In the confrontation with Qin State, Zhao State was unable to support him, so he had to abandon Lian Po, who insisted on not fighting, and replaced Zhao Kuo, the son of Ma Fujun, in order to open up the situation.

Zhao Xiangyuqing retorted upon hearing the words, "I, Zhao State, and Qin State have long been deadly enemies. If Qin State exists for a day, the heart of Zhao State will not die. Now the six countries have suffered from Qin for a long time. If we, Zhao State, send troops to fight Wei If there is an alliance of countries to fight against Qin, the six countries will definitely help each other.

In this way, no matter how powerful the Qin army is, how can the Allied Forces of the Six Nations be afraid?
In my opinion, envoys should be sent to the six countries to lobby and persuade all countries to send troops together. Once successful, it will also dampen the spirit of Qin. "

"That's a good word! Your Majesty! Lian Po is willing to lead the army to go out and wipe out the Qin bandits!" An old man with gray eyebrows stepped out and bowed, "If you give me a hundred thousand soldiers, the Qin bandits will be defeated!"

Lian Po is a veteran of the Zhao State, with high prestige.

"The ministers and others seconded the proposal." Everyone echoed in unison.

Xiangguo Yuqing and General Lian Po expressed their views, and the rest of the officials naturally responded.

Zhao Wangdan hesitated for a moment, finally nodded and said: "Since that's the case, I agree to General Lian Po's request to go out!"

…………

In Xinzheng, South Korea, the prime minister was reviewing official documents in the mansion openly. Suddenly, he heard a report from the guards that Lord Xinling of Wei Guo sent troops to Anyi and wanted to join forces.

Immediately shocked, he hurriedly said: "Get the car ready! Go to the palace to meet the king!"

"Yes, Prime Minister." The guard hurried out.

Openly tidied up his clothes and hurried out of the mansion.

"Grandfather!" As soon as Zhang Kaidi left the gate, he met his young grandson.

This is a doll carved with jade.

Zhang Kai didn't have time to pay attention to him, so he got into the car and ordered: "Quick, enter the palace!"

Although Zhang Liang was young, he was much more intelligent. It was the first time he saw his grandfather in such a hurry.

The car that opened the ground quickly drove into the palace, unimpeded all the way, and went straight to the inner court.

Zhang Zhang got off the car and headed towards King Han's bedroom. The guards outside the palace immediately stopped the car and said, "Mr. Zhang, please stop."

Frowning openly, he said displeasedly: "I have something important to discuss with the king."

The guards didn't dare to stop him, but they couldn't let him in, so they could only bow their heads and apologize, "Mr. Zhang, it's just that the king is..."

Zhang Kai gave a cold snort, and said with a flick of his sleeves: "Quickly report to the king, if state affairs are delayed, can you bear it?"

Hearing this, the guard had no choice but to bite the bullet and go in to report, but after a long time, there was still no movement.

Zhang Kai's patience was gradually exhausted, at this time a eunuch came hurriedly and said: "The king said, if the prime minister really has something to do, come back tomorrow."

Hearing the words with open eyes, his face suddenly changed, "This matter concerns my safety in Korea, and there is no room for hesitation!"

The eunuch hesitated for a moment and had to take him in.

Walking quickly into the room with Zhang Kai, he happened to see a woman with her back turned to him, kneeling on the ground and beating Han Wangan's legs. Han Wangan closed his eyes, enjoying the beauty's service.

"The old minister sees the king!" Han Wangan opened his eyes, glanced at them, and said displeasedly: "It turns out to be the prime minister, please step back quickly, step back."

The woman immediately retreated when she saw the opportunity, Han Wangan waved his hand to let all the attendants leave, and said: "The prime minister, I don't know what is the important thing to talk to me about?"

A face of vanity, the appearance of excessive wine.

Zhang Kai held back his temper and said: "Your Majesty Qizuo, I heard that King Xinling of Wei Guo sent troops to Anyi, and wanted to do something of unification, and combined the strength of the six kingdoms to attack Wudao and tyranny Qin."

"Oh, what do Wei people want to do?" Han Wangan asked casually.

Zhang Kai was silent for a moment before saying: "Your Majesty, among the six kingdoms, Korea is the weakest. The people of Qin have never stopped wanting to destroy Korea. Now that the Kingdom of Wei is united, it is our country's lifeline.

Therefore, I implore the king to send troops to Anyi, and form an alliance with the State of Wei to deal with the State of Qin together. "

After hearing this, Han Wangan couldn't help frowning and said, "You want to let the widows send troops to Anyi? If the Qin people didn't come to invade these years, Korea would be safe for a while.

If the tiger and wolf division of the Qin people sent troops to attack, wouldn't they die in vain?And angered the people of Qin. "

"Your Majesty!" Zhang Kai said excitedly, "You are the lord of South Korea. If you send troops, you will definitely inspire the hearts of the people. If we do not fight in South Korea, what is the difference from waiting for death? Besides, we will turn against the other five countries. It's really unwise to behave like this."

Han Wangan was vacillating when he heard the words, so he had to say: "Prime Minister, if, as you said, the other five countries really send troops to join forces, how about I agree to my South Korea sending troops?"

"The Wei-Chu Alliance and the Qin State, we, South Korea, have to make a decision. The former has no intention of destroying our South Korea, and the latter has no desire to destroy our South Korea, and take our kingdom!"

"Master Zhang, you can make your own decisions!" King Han said in a deep voice, as if annoyed by his attitude.

Zhang Kai knew that this was King Han's maximum compromise, so he could only say, "Since the king has made a decision, the old minister will retire first."

He left Hanwang Palace openly, got into the car and drove to the mansion.

As soon as he entered the mansion, he saw Zhang Liang waiting in the courtyard, and couldn't help showing a little smile: "Grandson, why are you here?"

Zhang Liang came up and said, "Grandson is here waiting for grandfather to return home."

"My good grandson," Zhang Kai patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction, "he is much more sensible than your father when he was a child, and he will definitely inherit my official position in the future and serve South Korea!"

Seeing him like this with open eyes, Lao Huai was very relieved.
