Daqin: Prince Peerless, guarding Hangu for ten years!

Chapter 80 Qin never follows the rules!
King Han stood up in horror and stared at the old man in black robe below with wide eyes.

Panic as if seeing a ghost.

The entire Hanwang palace became audible again in an instant, and only the sound of heavier breathing echoed in the hall.

"Whoosh, whoosh..."

Han Wangran stared intently at the old man in black robe in front of him, unable to determine for a moment whether the words he spoke were false threats or foresight to prepare for a rainy day.

He still knew too little about the people in the Zongheng lineage, too little.

In fact, even at this moment, he didn't know much about the person in front of him. Apart from knowing that he was a member of Gui Gu Zongheng's lineage, he didn't know anything else.

I don't even know the name of the old man in black robe at this moment. This person is simply a mist. I can see it, but I can't touch it.

However, such questions only flashed across Han Wangran's mind.

The fundamental question at this moment is what the old man in black robe in front of him said just now. Will Qin really send troops to Hangu?
Qin has not sent troops to Hangu for at least 15 years. Will it really send troops to Hangu this time?

Qin Ying Ji really has such determination and courage?
One question after another appeared in Han Wangran's mind. The first one had not yet been understood, and the next one came one after another, as if countless Korean courtiers were buzzing in his mind.

His head was swollen from the thought, and his body was filled with heat. When he sat down on the sofa again, the clothes on his back pressed against him, and the cold touch stimulated Han Wangran to tremble.

"Such speculation is too shocking!" Han Wangran's voice became hoarse unknowingly, and there was a panic in his vibrato that he was not even aware of: "Have people in the Zongheng lineage now reduced to alarmism? It seems that before Neither Zhang Yi nor Su Qin have ever used such methods..."

At this time, Han Wangran was in a state of confusion. He knew that such words would appear to be weak, but he still couldn't help but say them.

After saying that, he regretted it.

However, there is no regret medicine in this world, especially when facing people from Zongheng's lineage.

The expression of the old man in black robe did not change at all, he sat as still as a sculpture: "Your Majesty, did you underestimate King Ying Ji of Qin, the determination of Qin State, or the people of Qin?"

Han Wangran remained silent. Is there any difference between the two?

The King of Qin created the people of Qin who were like tigers and wolves, and the people of Qin in turn encouraged the King of Qin to be as greedy and ferocious as tigers and wolves.

After a long time, Han Wangran exhaled the turbid air in his chest, and sat down on the throne with a dejected expression:

"As early as when the Qin army increased its troops to Hedong, we, South Korea, had already prepared for the worst. But even if we, South Korea, have the intention, we are powerless at this moment."

"Since the Qin State took Yiyang from our country, our country, South Korea, has now been controlled by the Qin State. Although the previous kings have worked hard to govern, they are still inferior to each other. Even the king himself knows that I am just a housekeeper. I'm afraid None of them are qualified.”

At this point, the fists in Han Wangran's sleeves had been clenched into a ball, the joints turned white, and the nails were embedded in the flesh, but Han Wangran seemed not to notice, and his eyes flashed with humiliation.

Who doesn’t want the country to be prosperous and the people strong?
Who doesn’t want to dominate the Seven Kingdoms?
He, Korea, was not so weak originally.

only……

Han Wangran loosened his clenched fists in vain and said in a low tone:

"It's not that Korea doesn't want to be strong, it's that Korea is a small country with few people. Even if Korean soldiers are not as brave as Qin soldiers, if they die, they will lose one. Even if they want to exchange their sons with Qin, they can't do it. Qin has been defeated once in three years. Time can make a comeback, but if South Korea is defeated once, it will be unable to recover in ten years."

The old man in black robe suddenly asked: "How many soldiers and horses does South Korea have now?"

Han Wangran's face turned cold in vain, and he exuded a sense of awe. He stared at the old man below like a knife. After a long time, he looked away and said with a wooden face: "One hundred thousand. One hundred thousand for the whole country."

After saying that, Han Wangran proudly raised his head, looked at the old man in black robe below, and said firmly: "Although there are 15 people, it is enough to rival the 30 people of Chu State and the [-] people of Qi State."

Bravery is a kind of spirit and will that can be passed down through blood.

However, as South Korea's brave and fearless soldiers sacrifice and age year by year, South Korea is now unable to arm more soldiers even if it wants to.

With the shrinking of national power and the reduction of population, we can only implement the policy of elite troops.

Under the policy of elite troops, the current situation has been created. Facing the Qin State where all the people are soldiers, this small number of troops is insufficient to defend the entire South Korea.

"Much better than I expected..."

The old man in black robe smiled for the first time. Even though the thin face under the black robe looked a bit scary at the moment, he still smiled truly.

Han Wangran stared at the old man in black robe, wondering what he wanted.

"I originally estimated that there were only 8 people. In this way, the number of soldiers fighting can be increased."

"Go to war? Let South Korea send troops? Absolutely impossible." Han Wangran rejected this statement directly. He said that South Korea only had [-] elites. If they went to war, South Korea would not need any more.

He didn't completely trust the old man in black robe in front of him, let alone the four countries of Chu, Zhao, Wei and Qi beside him.

The people of Qin are like tigers and leopards, and the four countries are like jackals.

The old man in black robe raised his eyes and looked directly at Han Wangran, and asked in a deep voice: "Does the king think it is possible for South Korea not to go to war at this moment?"

"Impossible..." Han Wangran lost his momentum instantly: "But even if South Korea participates in the war, the number of soldiers will only be 1. What threat does [-] people pose to the Qin army at this moment?"

"Does the king think that one hundred thousand Qi troops and [-] Yan troops can fight the Qin army?"

Han Wangran narrowed his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "The Yan army is still brave, but the Qi army..."

Han Wangran shook his head, with a confused look on his face, and then said: "The Qi army has not experienced war for more than ten years. Not to mention fighting with Qin, it is the current Yan, Zhao, Wei, Chu, and even Han, They can all be defeated easily."

"So, the six countries need to work together this time."

"But even if we add ten thousand soldiers from South Korea, it will not help. Wei and Chu are newly defeated, and it will take at least half a year to raise a large army. But after half a year, Handan has been conquered. .”

"What the king said is true. This spliced ​​army has no chance of winning against the Qin army at this moment. But..."

At this point, the old man in black robe suddenly changed the subject and raised his tone a bit: "What will happen if this army is equipped with powerful crossbows from South Korea, weapons from Chu State, and iron armor from Wei State?"

hiss!
hiss!
When Han Wangran heard this, his pupils shrank, his scalp went numb for a moment, and he looked at the old man in black robe in front of him with a horrified expression.

This?
This!
Korea’s divine crossbow, Chu’s weapons, Wei’s armor…

Each of the seven heroes has his own strengths.

Regardless of their soldiers, every country has its own strengths and secret technologies that will never be spread to outsiders.

The words of the old man in black robes were still ringing in his ears all the time, like Hong Zhong Da Lu directly knocking on Han Wangran's heart, each word shocking.

"Korea's powerful crossbow can shoot [-] steps away, and its range is far greater than that of Qin's crossbow. Even though the arrows are not as sharp as Qin's, when paired with Chu's arrows, they can still kill Qin's soldiers. In addition, the Chu's forged Weapons and soldiers put on Wei's armor are enough to arm an unprecedented army. An army that Qin has never seen before and will never imagine."

Following the words of the old man in black robe, Han Wangran opened his mouth to the limit without realizing it, his eyes flickered, and he subconsciously followed the old man's words in his mind.

puff, puff...

The sounds all around seemed to fade away, and only the sound of the heartbeat continued to increase and accelerate.Han Wangran was moved.

Facing such an army, no one would not be tempted.

However, Han Wangran still had worries in his heart. Being close to Qin, no one could understand the terror of the Qin people better than Han. Therefore, Han Wangran hesitated and said:

"However, Qin State always has 30 troops..."

The cold look on the corner of the black-robed old man's mouth flashed away, and he said in a deep voice: "Qin is a country of tigers and wolves. They are born to look down upon the entire wilderness. Naturally, there is no way to kill them completely in the wild. But what if the tigers and wolves imprison themselves in a cage? ?”

The cold and stern voice made Han Wangran shiver. Goosebumps suddenly went up on his head. He looked at the old man in black robe with horrified eyes and shouted:
"Handan?"

"It's Handan!" The black-robed old man's eyes suddenly shone brightly, as if they were piercing through everything. Han Wangran's body shook when he looked at it, and he was completely stunned by these words.

They actually used Handan as fishing bait?

That's Handan, the capital of Zhao State.

Will King Zhao agree?

However, as soon as Han Wangran thought of this, his body trembled again, and an uncontrollable chill arose in his heart.

Without Zhao Wangdan's consent, how could the person in front of him be willing to speak?

Thinking of the words just now, Han Wangran suddenly felt a little suffocated, his pupils shrank to pinpoints, and his heartbeat stagnated.

Zhao, Qi, Yan, Wei, and Chu.

What if we add him to Korea?

Isn't this a new six-nation alliance?
It is even closer than a few decades ago.

And all of this was actually planned by the person in front of him?

When was it planned?

Han Wangran only felt that there seemed to be an invisible giant net that spread out silently, and unknowingly enveloped Qin...

"In the four years before and after the Battle of Handan, not only the lifeblood of the Zhao people, but also the Qin people also bet everything on it. This is a huge gamble between Qin and Zhao."

"If Qin wins, Zhao will definitely be in ruins. Qin can focus its energy on the grassland to deal with the threat from the north, and at the same time, it can surround Zhao from the north. Zhao has no way out."

"But Qin also has no way out. Both Yingji and Qin have sacrificed too much in Handan. They are willing to sacrifice Wu'an Lord Bai Qi and risk Qin's national strength falling back by 20 years. They have to fight this battle Fight it."

The sonorous voice of the old man in black robes resounded throughout the entire hall. The words that originally made people's blood boiling, now came out of his mouth as if he had already seen everything natural, making the listeners' hair stand on end.

"Qin and Zhao have fought twice, and now it seems that Qin has won twice. But there is no clear winner between them. This time, as long as Qin is forced once, Qin will have no way out. Qin people are used to it. In order to fight tooth and nail, the more it reaches this moment, the more the Qin people dare to fight, even if Ying Ji and even the state of Qin know about it, they will not back down."

The black-robed old man's eyes were bright, his tone was high-pitched and fierce, but his words were full of murderous intent: "Now let's see if the king dares to fight this time?"

"How to fight?"

"As long as the king nods, Chu's 20 sets of armor can go up the Shuoying River, arrive at Xinzheng City in two days, pick up the Korean army and powerful crossbows, go north to Luoshui and merge into the river, and join Wei's armor and [-] soldiers along the way. The army will go straight to the people of Zhao State. Here, [-] Yan troops will also go south at the same time and join the army here."

"Then surround the Handan Qin army from Lieren to the west?"

"Soon, the Qin Army will usher in the third war. No, the original war is far from over. This time the Qin Army will be completely trapped in Handan."

Han Wangran became excited at this moment, and his excited voice was trembling: "Will Yingjun... and the 30-strong army be annihilated?"

"How can Hu'er alone?"

The old man in black robe narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his head, and looked over the hall, as if across the distance, he directly saw Xianyang, the end of the battle, and the piles of corpses.

"Bai Qi, Ying Jun, Ying Ji and even the entire Qin State, Qin Army, and Qin people will completely disappear with this battle. Handan will be the Qin Army's prison. Once you step in, you will not be able to get out. Then It is the place where the black bird of Qin State died."

The sound echoed in the empty hall, as if an endless storm had gathered, and the air was filled with oppression, which made Han Wangran unable to speak.

After a long time, Han Wangran took a deep breath: "Are we really so sure?"

"No one dares to say that they are completely sure until the last moment. I first served as a military strategist for 20 years, and then as a general practitioner for 20 years. All I can do is try my best."

Amidst the faint words, wind blew in from the crack in the door of the hall, like the wails of the souls of the dead on the battlefield. It made people so cold that they could not help but shiver all over. The moment goosebumps turned up, the hair on the hair stood on end.

Han Wangran stared at the old man in black robe with his eyes wide open, his face tensed, and he said in a low tone:

"This may be my chance to fight to the death in Korea, but I really have some doubts about a person whose name I haven't even named."

"My name is irrelevant to me. If I can destroy the Qin Kingdom, my name will be respected by the world. Who dares to say it? If I can't, leaving my name is useless and will only add to the laughter."

There was a majesty in the calm eyes of the old man in black robe that ordinary people could not resist. Han Wangran looked at each other for a long time and finally looked away.

He himself said that he is not qualified to be a household dog. The burden of life and death in Korea is too heavy for a person like him.

"I believe you, but how can I trust the Six Nations?"

The black-robed old man's voice was calm, but his mouth sounded like a knife: "May I ask your Majesty, when Korea is in decline, why do you still persist in the face of the aggressive Qin State?"

Han Wangran did not get angry, but frowned and pondered for a moment, and then replied: "Because the Qin State is a tiger and a wolf. If we don't want to be devoured, we have no choice but to resist."

The old man in black robe asked: "Is this really the case?"

"What's wrong with this?" Han Wangran spread his hands and looked at him.

The old man in black robe suddenly stood up, and his high-pitched voice suddenly rang out: "It's fear, it's destiny. It's because the Qin Kingdom has produced four heroes, five generations if Yingjun is included. And there are only a few successors in the Six Kingdoms."

"The six countries are fearful and worried. The six kings and even the ministers are afraid of Qin. They fear Qin like a tiger, not because they are really afraid of death, but because you think it is because Qin is an alien!"

Han Wangran's pupils suddenly widened, and a flash of light flashed in his mind. As if he thought of something, his whole body began to tremble. He opened his mouth to stop it, but the words of the old man in black robes resounded through the hall like a roar.

"If Qin conquers the world, the kings of the six kingdoms and all the ministers will be ignored by everyone from now on..."

"This is the reason why they fear Qin and fear Qin."

"Because Qin never abides by the rules of the 'Great Zhou'!!!"
