Qin Shi: Beginning as the first emperor's younger brother

Chapter 160
Qin's sudden withdrawal not only baffled Lian Po, but also caught Yan by surprise.

On the way Jing Ke brought Qin Wuyang to the barracks, Yan Dan was already in the tent and scolded Qin for being shameless.

At the beginning, Qin State sent envoys, saying that they wanted Qin Yan to attack Zhao together, but they disappeared without a trace. Now, only Yan State is facing Zhao State alone.

Although in the past few days, many towns in the State of Zhao have also been captured, the withdrawal of Qin State will give the State of Zhao a breathing space, thus mobilizing all its energy to deal with the State of Yan.

Prince Dan was extremely depressed.

After thinking about it again and again, I decided to withdraw my troops in the next few days.

Otherwise, I am afraid that Zhao Guo will not make Yan Guo feel better.

At this juncture, a flying pigeon passed a letter, which made Yan Dan's face turn red instantly, as if he had been stimulated by something, his fists were tightly clenched, and he looked like he was gnashing his teeth, which made many generals of the Yan Kingdom daunting.

Not only that, but the way he clenched the brocade handkerchief tightly was like eating people.

They were very curious about what was written on that brocade handkerchief. After letting him see it, his emotions would fluctuate so much that he could hardly suppress it.

Gradually, Yan Dan's eyes felt bloodshot.

"Son of a bitch!"

As soon as the words fell to the ground, everyone in the camp saw him vent all his anger in an instant, and punched the huge sand table in front of him directly, and the sand table was torn apart immediately.

This was not over yet, as if to vent his anger, he tore seven or eight pieces of the brocade handkerchief that Fei Pigeon had brought.

In the end, after taking a few deep breaths in succession, the mood calmed down a little.

"Order all the Mohist disciples in the country of Yan to do their best to eradicate the gangsters. I want all the gangsters in the country of Yan to leave no one behind!"

Yan Dan finished the sentence almost entirely by roaring.

All the soldiers were surprised for a moment.

Is this the prelude to going to war with Qin?

One of the generals boldly asked: "His Royal Highness, I don't know what happened?"

Yan Dan was speechless.

He slowly closed his eyes, trying to completely suppress the restlessness in his heart.

In fact, it is too late for him to order the rangers of the Mo family in the Yan State to deal with the bandits. As early as the moment Ying Yuan chose to attack the secret agents of the Yan State in Xianyang City, the bandits had already slowed down. Slowly withdrew from Jicheng of Yan State.

There are only a small number of members who have not been noticed. They will be nailed to the heart of Yan Kingdom like nails, and they will play a key role one day.

After a while.

Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang, who was recovering from his injuries, came to the barracks.

Prince Dan greeted him personally, with a smile on his face, he was completely different from before.

"Jing Ke, you've done a good job, I didn't misread you!"

Yan Dan patted his arm and got along with him like a friend.

Jing Ke clasped his fists in a deep voice: "Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life."

Perhaps, the successful rescue of Qin Wuyang was the only good news for Yan Dan today.

He looked at the former and said with a look of hatred, "Who is Ying Yuan? With his own power, he was able to kill the latter under the encirclement of the former top swordsman Biri and the former giant." Even I have to think twice before facing him, you dare to assassinate him directly? Should I say that you have the guts, or are you stupid? Reckless?!"

His tone was unusually severe.

Qin Wuyang bowed his head not knowing what to say.

Seeing his appearance, Yan Dan shook his head, looked at Jing Ke with a smile, welcomed him into the tent himself, and ordered someone to bring good wine and food.

After drinking for three rounds, Yan Dan asked Jing Ke how he rescued Qin Wuyang.

And he didn't hide anything, he just told the truth.

Hearing the sound, Yan Dan's expression changed slightly, he was taken aback for a moment, then fell silent for a moment, and then laughed again.

Jing Ke didn't notice his weird expression, even if he did, he just thought he would feel incredible.

Due to the exhaustion of the boat and the car, Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang went down to rest after drinking and eating.

Prince Dan was still in the camp, with a cold expression on his face. After a long while, he said to the person beside him, "We still need to send someone to Qin to investigate and see if the deaths of Qi Mo's disciples have anything to do with Jing Ke."

From now on, he has already suspected Jing Ke.

Yan's army, after two days, had started to retreat slowly.

Zhao Cong, who was about to be defeated like a mountain, gasped inwardly.

I thought to myself that if the Yan Kingdom retreated, I would be living up to everyone's expectations.

Prior to this, several edicts were issued one after another from Handan City, ordering Lian Po to return home.

There is no doubt that it must be what Guo Kai said.

During the court meeting, the prostitute queen asked Guo Kai what condition Qin had agreed to, so that the overwhelmingly powerful Qin army would agree to withdraw.

Guo Kai replied truthfully: "36 small cities including Shouling."

As soon as these words came out, the entire court was completely chaotic.

Many people are discussing this matter in whispers.

36 cities?Still a small town?Are you sure it's a small town?
"Xiangbang, if you agreed to Qin's harsh conditions, wouldn't it be a loss of power and humiliation to the country?"

It wasn't until someone happened that the voice of discussion behind the scenes stopped.

Guo Kai frowned and said, "Why don't you talk to Qin? Don't you know that the Qin army has captured many cities? Old Lianpo dare not confront the Qin army, but hides in the city of Shouling In order to protect myself, if I don't agree to Qin's request, I'm afraid that the [-] soldiers under his command will be completely defeated by Qin. At that time, what do you think our Zhao country should pay?"

At present, Qin State has not yet handed over the [-] soldiers of Zhao State.

Only after Zhao Guo gave Qin the town, the latter would release him.

In fact, Handan now doesn't know what's going on in the battle ahead, but it's true that Lian Po can't defend himself, so he allowed Qin to attack the city and plunder the land.

Sitting on an army of [-], but only guarding the city of Shouling, after thinking about it, they can only use two reasons to explain it.

First, Lian Po was old and did not dare to personally lead the army to fight to the death with the main force of the Qin army, which caused the Qin army to break through the city gate like a god's help;

Second, support the soldiers with self-respect and only seek self-protection. If it is really impossible, if you can't persist, you can still take refuge in Qin. Anyway, he can live well no matter what.

Based on what Guo Kai said, they all agreed that maybe Lian Po really had such an idea.

None of the princes in the Manchu Dynasty knew how to analyze the situation of the war. I have to say that this is really a kind of sadness.

In fact, at the end of the Warring States period, except for several veteran generals such as Li Mu, Lian Po, Pang Nuan, and Le Cheng, Zhao Guo had no one who could be called a strategist.

However, among these four people, three of them have already died.

Zhao Guo is like a famous general in the hereditary system. At this point in time, there is a fault, and the successor is weak, so it is difficult to make a difference.

This is why the princes of the Manchu Dynasty could not understand Lian Po's persistence in Shouling.

"Queen Qi, I think that since the peace talks with Qin have been made, at this moment, we should hurry up and order Lian Po to return to Handan. Otherwise, he has [-] soldiers under his command. Once..."

Having said that, Guo Kai stopped abruptly.

He just didn't tell the whole story, just let them guess.

The prostitute was also afraid that something bad would happen, what's more, she didn't know at this time that the Yan State had withdrawn its troops, so she quickly issued an edict ordering Lian Po to lead the army back to Handan.

When the court was over, Guo Kai was about to leave when he was suddenly stopped by the prostitute, "Wait a minute, Prime Minister, I still have some things to ask you for advice."

Hearing the sound, he looked happy.

But Chunping Jun, who was about to step out of the palace, had a cloudy expression on his face.
