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

Chapter 369 Northern Expedition!Northern Expedition!
Everything is being prepared intensely.

Because the time for the expedition was too urgent, Ying Zheng could only order Li Si to send more people to collect food, grass and some supplies.

Things have come to this point, and he has no way out.

Inside the Xianyang Palace.

Ying Zheng is discussing with Ying Yuan about the expedition.

"I have already announced to the world that after seven days, you will lead the army to go out to show the prestige of our country and conquer the alien race in the north."

The former spoke.

The latter bowed and said, "Brother Emperor, please rest assured, since the Northern Expedition has been decided, I will definitely work hard to maximize the results of the war."

"From what you're saying, do you feel that there is absolutely no possibility of defeat in this battle?" Ying Zheng asked eagerly.

The confidence of the other party is of great help to him.

"My brother is the commander-in-chief of the three armies. I can't admit defeat before this battle has started, right? There is no such reason. In short, my brother will do his best to show the prestige of my Great Qin."

Ying Yuan had no choice but to smile bitterly.

Ying Zheng said: "If you have this idea, I can rest assured. I trust you. If even you can't defeat the Hu people, then there will be no general in Qin who can take on such a great task."

"Brother Huang, this time I want to mobilize 40 troops and 30 civilians from the three major battalions as logistical support. I wonder if we can gather so many troops and civilians?" Ying Yuan asked.

In fact, Ying Zheng was only willing to give him 30 troops at first, but later he worried again and again, and finally hoped to add another 30 Golden Fire Cavalry on the basis of the original [-] troops.

Ying Yuan had already told him about this earlier, but he didn't get a definite reply.

Let's talk about it today, and 30 civilian husbands have been added. I'm afraid it will be difficult for Yingzheng to support it.

After the other party pondered for a while, he suddenly said: "I agree to your request. As for the logistics support, you don't have to worry. Li Si and I will do our best. The most important thing you should do is to win this battle. I believe you."

Yu Luo patted Ying Yuan's shoulder meaningfully.

He nodded and said solemnly: "Since my brother chooses to go to war, even if he is not sure of victory, it is almost the same."

In this battle, there is only peace.

There is no right time and place.

Therefore, Ying Yuan naturally has no certainty of victory.

In the past, the conquests of various countries were fought in tough battles, that is, to siege cities and land or defend one side.

But once you go deep into a vast foreign land to fight, it is very likely that there will be guerrilla warfare or blitzkrieg, which is extremely difficult.

Ying Yuan and the others are closely preparing to launch a war.

Everyone is looking forward to it.

This is the first time that Great Qin has launched a foreign war since it ruled the world, and it should not be underestimated.

Many anti-Qin forces are also watching closely.

Daze Township.

Wei Zhuang and Gai Nie also heard about it.

The former bluntly said: "Ying Yuan is really good at fighting, but the foreign land is extremely complicated, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to succeed."

The latter has always admired Ying Yuan, so he expressed a different opinion, "The champion Hou Yongbing has always been sure of victory, and this time it is the elite army that has gathered the whole country. I think, Still not to be underestimated.”

"If he is defeated, the empire will not be far from being destroyed." Wei Zhuang hoped that Ying Yuan would be defeated.

"However, once he wins, I'm afraid that everything we do will be in vain."

Gai Nie is very clear that once he wins the battle against the alien race, it will greatly increase the cohesion of the people in the world.

Not only the two of them are analyzing the situation of this battle, but also various forces in the rivers and lakes are also contemplating.

Due to the deterrence brought by Ying Yuan's own status, many people are very optimistic about this battle.

Therefore, some anti-Qin forces have been very quiet during this period of time.

They wanted to see if Ying Yuan could win this time.

The Prime Minister's Mansion.

Fusu came to visit Li Si.

The latter asked with a smile: "The son is here, but for the upcoming war against the alien race?"

The former replied bluntly: "That's right, I think Mr. Xiangguo should know some thoughts in my heart, right?"

Hearing the sound, Li Si nodded slightly and said: "If what I expected is correct, the young master's heart should be extremely contradictory at the moment. On the one hand, you don't want the king of Qi to win, but on the other hand, the young master's mentor Meng Tian is acting as his deputy. Handsome, if you lose the battle, I'm afraid your status will plummet?"

Fu Su nodded and said: "That's right, there are indeed concerns about this, but in my heart, I still hope that King Qi will win. For me, it is best not to launch this battle. As far as Yu Guo is concerned, since it has already been launched, it is better to win."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Since the Northern Expedition has been decided, His Majesty must have envisioned all the consequences in his heart. You should trust your royal father."

It's hard for Li Si to say extra words.

Fusu frowned deeply, looked up at the blue sky, and said worriedly: "Actually, I have a small request for coming here, and I hope Lord Xiangguo can help me."

Since the expedition is imminent, Ying Yuan wants to get Wang Ben's help, so even though he knows that the other party is keeping a filial piety in front of Wang Jian's grave, he still finds him, hoping that the other party can follow him to the expedition.

However, he was rejected by Wang Ben, "I understand my brother's good intentions. This foreign war is a great opportunity to make a decision, but at this moment, my brother is in such a mess that he is really unable to go out with the army."

Hearing this, Ying Yuan sighed and said, "It's fine not to go, you've been busy for so many years, it's time for you to take a break."

The 40 troops drawn from the three major battalions and the Golden Fire Cavalry are rapidly approaching Xianyang City.

On the eve of the army's arrival, Ying Yuan received news that the Hu people already knew what Qin was doing and had already started to take action.

In other words, the matter of the expedition cannot be postponed.

Three days later.

Worship the general.

Ying Yuan ordered the generals to gather troops and swear to the master to go out in a mighty way.

At the same time, Beihu's 30 troops have assembled in the border area north of Yinshan Mountain.

This day is destined to go down in history.

Countless people in the city shouted 'Da Qin Wannian' on both sides of the street.

At this moment, King Qi's majesty once again appeared in the eyes of the world.

And Yingzheng made a decision that confused him, that is, let Fusu go with the army and serve as the supervisor of the army.

This move made many soldiers a little puzzled.

After all, the word "supervising the army" has not appeared in the Qin army for a long time.

On the general worship platform, Ying Yuan was wearing battle armor and holding a big halberd in his hand, and shouted his highest voice to the soldiers of the army, "Let's go!"

According to historical records, this battle opened the prelude to the decades-long chaos between Qin and foreign races.

It was hailed by later generations as the beginning of the Northern Expedition.

Qi County.

Qi Wangfu.

Tian Zhen is exerting her greatest strength and fully cooperating with Ying Yuan's actions.

She knew that the latter's trip to Xianyang would definitely not be easy.

As expected.

This time, the fight against the alien race was to reach the north of Yinshan Mountain.

Throughout the ages, how many people have really done it?

hardly!

Ying Yuan is doing something unprecedented.

Northern Expedition!
