My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 930: I don't care about right or wrong anymore, I just want to die! Does the commander want to kill me?
December 25th, the 16th year of the reign of Qin Shi Huang.

Groups of messengers rode their horses at full speed into Xianyang City, crushing the snow on the streets.

As the war progressed, the messengers under Ying Chengjiao's command upgraded from sending back military reports only when there was military intelligence in the beginning to sending back military reports once a day, and then developed to sending back military reports once every half a day, and now it has become once every half an hour!
Meng Yi and other ministers simply gave up running back and forth and stood directly at the door of the imperial study waiting.

"Urgent report on the military situation of Lord Chang'an!"

"Report! The soldiers defending Linzi City shouted 'Welcome the Left Prime Minister back to the court' and surrendered!"

"Report! King Qi is leaving the palace and asking for surrender!"

"Report! General Tian He of Qi organized the Linzi dignitaries to ambush and kill Lord Chang'an!"

Along with the military reports, a famous doctor also broke into the imperial study.

Wei Liao's face was as pale as paper, his breathing was rapid, and his pulse was weak. He lay in Song An's arms, and Song An pressed hard on his philtrum.

Lu Buwei lay flat on the ground, his bloodshot eyes filled with emptiness and despair, allowing the doctor to press his heart.

Every court official, including Li Si, Feng Quji, and Han Cang, had several doctors by their side, either providing emergency treatment or carefully caring for them.

If an uninformed person breaks into this place, he will suspect that he has come to the Imperial Study of Qi or Dai, but he will not think that he has entered the Imperial Study of Qin!

Ying Zheng, who was sitting on the high platform, had a calm expression on his face, but Xia Wuqi, who was accompanying Ying Zheng, had a face full of fear and kept reminding him: "Your Majesty, calm down! Calm down!"

"Your Majesty's liver qi has become stagnant. If you continue to be so anxious, it may harm your body!"

"I advise you to hold off on passing on the military report. Your Majesty and all the other officers please take a break first."

Ying Zheng said coldly: "No! Shut up!"

Xia Wuqi's lips moved a few times, but in the end he could only sigh softly and hurriedly write a prescription.

Another quarter of an hour later, another messenger was carried into the imperial study. Meng Yi hurriedly snatched the bamboo tube from the messenger's hand, checked it, took out the bamboo slips and shouted loudly: "Report!"

"The surrendered soldiers of the Qi army moved without orders, spontaneously formed a battle array and surrounded and killed the troops of General Tian He of Qi, protecting Lord Chang'an!"

"As I finish writing this military report, more than 20,000 Qi troops have joined the battle. Chang'an Jun is safe!"

"Yes, Chang'an Jun's strategy failed again!"

"Chang'an Jun can no longer feign defeat and retreat just because he was ambushed and killed by the anti-Qin dignitaries in Linzi City!"

Zhao Gao's handwriting was particularly sloppy.

The military report sent back by Zhao Gao made Ying Zheng breathe a sigh of relief: "My brother is safe, so I have nothing to worry about!"

Then Ying Zheng straightened his body and spoke in a deep voice: "Chang'an Jun took the risk and personally entered Linzi City to lure the enemy to send troops. This is the best strategy, and it also shows Chang'an Jun's determination and sincerity to fulfill the king's order."

"Chang'an Jun has indeed attracted anti-Qin people!"

"It's a pity that the Qi soldiers are loyal to the Qin State, which makes Chang'an Jun's plan fruitless."

"This is not the fault of Chang'an Jun, nor is it the fault of Zhan!"

"My dear ministers, do you have any good advice?"

Wei Liao lay in Song An's arms with his muscles relaxed, his heart ashen, and he murmured bitterly: "I am so stupid, really!"

"How can I allow Lord Chang'an to go to war?"

"Why did I harbor illusions about Lord Chang'an, thinking that the outcome of this battle would be exactly the same as what was agreed upon by the military before the war?"

"I am so stupid! Really!"

I no longer have the heart to distinguish between right and wrong.

I really want to die!

Lu Buwei supported himself on the ground with his hands, and struggled to get up. He said in a tired voice: "Your Majesty, what you said is very true!"

"From the military reports sent by Lord Chang'an, we can see that Lord Chang'an has been doing his utmost to protect the country of Qi."

"Of course, the trend of people's will is unstoppable!"

"Everything Chang'an Jun did and responded to was the best choice!"

The time from when Ying Chengjiao arrived in Linzi City to when King Jian of Qi surrendered was so short that the Qin Dynasty had no time to make any arrangements.

If they were in each other's shoes, Lu Buwei would not be able to make a more appropriate response than Ying Chengjiao.

But doesn’t Lu Buwei have any negative emotions at all?
Lü Buwei's voice could not help but be filled with regret and self-blame: "No matter how many mistakes you make, they are all your fault!"

"If it weren't for Lord Chang'an personally leading the troops to attack Linzi, the Qi soldiers would definitely not have surrendered on their own initiative!"

"If it weren't for Lord Chang'an personally leading the troops to attack Linzi, the King of Qi would definitely not give up resistance and surrender immediately!"

"We should have thought of all this when Chang'an Jun sent back the military report saying that the troops should be divided, and resolutely stopped Chang'an Jun, instead of focusing our main energy on discussing whether Deputy General Ben was capable of resisting Dai Wu'an Jun's fierce attack!"

Lu Buwei, regret it!

Wei Liao's previous experience was right in front of him. Why didn't he carefully and repeatedly study every military report sent back by Ying Chengjiao and every strategic step formulated?
Ying Zheng shook his head and said comfortingly: "The front line is more than 2,000 miles away from Xianyang City!"

"Even if the messenger was to travel back and forth on a fast horse, it would take ten days to make a round trip."

"From the time Chang'an Jun formulated the military strategy to the time the King of Qi surrendered, it took only ten days."

"Even if you, my dear ministers, discovered the fallacy of Lord Chang'an's plan and ordered the soldiers to rush to stop Lord Chang'an, it would still be difficult to change the situation of Qi's defeat."

"My dear ministers, there is no need to dwell on the past."

"The most urgent task now is to quickly offer advice and suggestions to protect the country of Qi!"

Wei Liao suddenly hammered the carpet hard and shouted angrily: "King Qi, you are unworthy of being the descendant of the Eastern Emperor!"

"If you surrender without a fight, you are unworthy of being a king!"

No matter how wrong it is, it’s all King Jian of Qi’s fault!

Lü Buwei also sighed helplessly, then cupped his hands and said: "I think the current predicament is difficult to resolve!"

"Instead of worrying about Chang'an Jun's withdrawal, it would be better to rebuild Qi in the name of 'reviving a destroyed country and continuing an extinct generation'." "I advise you to recall Prince Zhen of Qi immediately and nominate him as the King of Qi!"

Ying Zheng frowned slightly and said, "Will this make people in the world question my determination to unify the world?"

Lu Buwei raised his head, looked at Ying Zheng with an incomprehensible gaze and asked, "Isn't this a happy event?"

People all over the world are questioning your determination to unify the world. What next?

Then the people of the world will be less cautious and vigilant towards our Great Qin!

Isn't this a good thing?

What? My king, you must be the enemy of the whole world to be happy?

After Ying Zheng pondered for a moment, he nodded and said, "This advice from the Prime Minister is very good!"

"My dear ministers, please discuss this together!"

With a new idea for saving the country, all the court officials struggled to get up and urged their tired and weak brains to think carefully.

But just as the ministers were discussing, a shout rang out from outside the imperial study: "Urgent military information from Lord Chang'an!"

Meng Yi quickly unfolded the bamboo slips and recited: "Your Majesty!"

"Qi's top general He has been killed in battle, but Qi's external historian Chunyu Hu is still leading the remaining bandits in a stubborn resistance."

"Chang'an Jun thought that the plan to lure the thieves in Linzi City to ambush and kill Chang'an Jun had completely failed, so he thought of another plan. He summoned 250 Lords Tian Zhen from the army and wanted to make 250 Lords Tian Zhen the King of Qi."

"Tian Zhen, the commander of the 250, cried out in grief, 'Does the commander want to kill me?'"

"I refuse to accept it!"

"Currently, Lord Chang'an is lobbying Tian Dan, Tian Rong, Tian Heng and other members of the Qi royal family one by one, but no one is willing to take over the throne of the King of Qi."

This military report put an end to the discussions between the Qin emperor and his ministers.

The strategy they came up with was also thought out by Ying Chengjiao, and he has already begun to implement it.

But the result was that no one was willing to inherit the throne of King of Qi!
After being stunned for a moment, Lü Buwei sighed bitterly: "With the past events of Chu in the past, how can the royal family of Qi be willing to inherit the throne of Qi?"

"This is because I lack wisdom."

After the truth was revealed, Lu Buwei immediately understood the concerns of Tian Zhen, Tian Dan and others.

The Qin State defeated the Chu army many times but failed to destroy the Chu State.

What is the result?

Every time the King of Chu changed, the Qin State would defeat the Chu army, capture the Chu capital, and massacre the powerful and young people in Chu.

As time went by, the young and strong generations of the Qu, Jing, and Zhao clans, which were once the three most powerful families in the Chu State, were almost wiped out! Only one in ten of the royal family of the Chu State survived! The powerful and wealthy forces in the Chu State were killed over and over again!
A lesson from the past, a teacher of the future.

Why did Tian Dan, Tian Rong and other members of the Qi royal family think they could avoid repeating the mistakes of the Chu State?
Even if there are royal children who are not very smart, they will be controlled by other royal children and the powerful and wealthy people in Qi!

This is the case with Tian Dan, Tian Rong and others, not to mention Tian Zhen.

He had been promoted to the rank of commander of the Qin army, had passed the imperial examination, and had a sister who worked as a concubine in the Chang'an Jun Mansion. He had established a foothold in the Qin army.

After the demise of Qi, the old forces of Qi will surely gather around Tian Zhen to form a new power group.

If Tian Zhen stayed in Daqin, his future would be bright. Why would he want to seek his own death? !

A sigh was heard in the imperial study.

The exhausted Ying Zheng had no choice but to speak up, and said in a deep voice: "Since this strategy has been proven useless by Chang'an Jun, let's put it aside for now."

"Do you have any good ideas to help the state of Qi?"

What greeted Ying Zheng was silence.

Even the royal family of Qi has given up, so what can these outsiders do even if they rack their brains?

Finally, Lü Buwei, who seemed to have aged several years in an instant, sighed helplessly: "I think that the king can select officials and take over the territory of Qi."

Wei Zhuang said bitterly: "But the officials of our Great Qin are barely enough to maintain the operation of government offices in various places."

"Moreover, our Great Qin has been governing the old Wei territory with the Provisional Law of the New District since September 21, the tenth year of King Qin's reign. It was originally planned to implement this law for five years, but now it has been five years and three months!"

"We can't delay any longer!"

The officials of the Qin Dynasty were only able to meet the minimum operating requirements, but now it is raining on top of a leaking roof.

Therefore, a large number of officials were needed to fully implement Qin laws in Wei, and a large number of officials were also needed to take over the territory of Qi.

The Qin Dynasty really doesn’t have that many officials available!

Lü Buwei scratched his hair hard and said irritably, "I already know everything that the Left Prime Minister said!"

"However, our Great Qin is powerless to stop Qi from surrendering. Can we sit back and watch Qi's territory fall into chaos, so that the people of Qi will hate our Great Qin so much?"

"It can't be like this!"

"For now, the only solution is to ask all my colleagues to work hard to alleviate the shortage of officials in our Great Qin!"

Wei Zhuang and other court officials all sighed, but they also understood that Lu Buwei had not spoken nonsense.

Daqin, no choice!
Ying Zheng nodded tiredly: "The Prime Minister's advice is good!"

"Please recommend officials to Qi as soon as possible to relieve Chang'an Jun of his worries!"

Lu Buwei took a step forward, looked at Ying Zheng sincerely and said, "I will advise you again!"

"Recall Chang'an Jun!"

I’m scared, really scared!

Don’t let Changan Jun demolish other people’s houses again!
