Qin Emperor Ziying
Chapter 153
Chapter 153
After this incident, these high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the camp of the Chu State obviously survived a lot, privately mentioning that Xiang Yan, who would kill them if they wanted to kill them, was even more fearful.
To kill Qu Yang, although the king of Chu just reprimanded him symbolically, Xiang Yan, who had lived a life of ups and downs in the officialdom, also understood that this move had completely pushed herself against the noble forces, even if it was With the victory of this war, I am afraid that these people will not let themselves go in the future.
Although Ziying's strategy of spreading rumors seems to be cracked one by one by the Chu State, the leaders of this group of nobles have planted time bombs for the Chu army.
The time soon came to the 24th year of Qin Wangzheng, and the confrontation between Qin and Chu on the front line of Pingyu has lasted for nearly a year.
In the next few months, although the Qin army still played the trick of armed parade from time to time, under the strict preparation of the Chu army, they failed to achieve much results, and gradually the frequency of attacking also decreased.
As for the Chu army, it also benefited from the fact that this group of monarchs and patriarchs have all experienced in the army.In the case of being unable to leave, the food and grass transported by the territories to which these people belonged has increased significantly.
If this is not the case, it is unknown whether the Chu army, which needs to be ready to guard against the Qin army's sneak attack, can survive until now.
However, even so, the supply of Chu State has reached the point where it is stretched.
"Report~, Shouchun urgent order!!"
A messenger rode into Chu's camp without stopping.
When the guards in the camp saw the blood-red bamboo tube on the messenger's back, they gave way immediately.
Take Zhu as the letter, and the king's urgent order.
The messenger ran all the way to Xiang Yan's military tent unimpeded, turned over and jumped off the horse, and rushed into the big tent while shouting.
"General, urgent report from the front line!"
Xiang Yan, who was holding a volume of "Six Secret Teachings" in the military tent and was reading fascinatedly, immediately threw the military book on the desk when he heard the sound, and stood up suddenly.
"Could it be that the Qin army made a big attack!" Xiang Yan's heart skipped a beat.
After a while, the messenger had already entered Xiang Yan's army tent, and when he saw the messenger, Xiang Yan was puzzled, if the Qin army made a large-scale attack, it should be the generals who came to report, but the messenger obviously came from the capital.
"Report to the general, an urgent report from the front line." As he spoke, he took off the bamboo tube on his back, and presented it respectfully to Xiang Yan, who looked dazed.
It's no wonder that Xiang Yan is so obsessed. Now, apart from Qin, the only good old man in the late Warring States period is Qi who is on the border with Chu.
According to intelligence, all Qin's troops are already facing him, and he is simply unable to open up a second battlefield.
And Qi State has been pursuing friendship with Qin State for these years. However, it has never launched a major war with the national policy of exchanging needs with other countries. It's just sending more soldiers and horses for defense.
Here is the front line, where else can I get an urgent report from the front line.
Scratching off the seal and opening the letter, Xiang Yan's expression darkened.
"The State of Qi led 20 troops to the south, and the soldiers pointed directly at the Surabaya Valley of Chu State." However, the Surabaya Valley of Chu State is now said to be an empty city. The King of Chu urgently ordered Xiang Yan to lead his army to rescue.
According to the time passed on the road, it will take at least half a month for Shouchun to receive the urgent report and send it to himself. Now the Qi army may have already attacked the territory of Chu State.
After reading the military newspaper, Xiang Yan also had a bitter look on her face. Who would have thought that the seemingly harmless Qi State would stab Chu State in the back at this critical moment.
In normal times, with the strength of the Chu State, it is natural that they would not be afraid of the provocations of the Qi State. However, during the year of confrontation with the Qin State, Chu State not only concentrated all its troops to the west, but also the grain and grass have been dragged to a certain extent. Difficult to maintain.
In a year, many people in power in the capital forgot the ferocity of the Qin army, thinking that the Qin army was just defending the border.
However, Xiang Yan knew very well that once his army retreated, the Qin army, which had been dormant for a year, would surely rush up like a tiger off its fence and bite the Chu army.
Zhang Yang, the messenger who came, went through customs and posts along the way.The generals, monarchs and patriarchs who heard the news quickly gathered in Xiang Yan's military tent.
"May I ask the general, what is the military information?"
"As a trivial matter, some rogue bandits in the countryside are just doing harm to the city and the countryside. It's just that the capital of the king is quite close, and the king ordered me to send a team of soldiers to quell them."
There are so many people talking, and there are so many nobles who are not familiar with military affairs, Xiang Yan naturally dare not tell the truth.
If this matter spreads to the army, it is inevitable that the morale of the army will be unstable. You must know that there are not a few soldiers from Surabaya in the army.
"Xiang Ying, I ordered you to lead 1000 troops to Pingzhi." Xiang Yan pretended to be relaxed and said, "The rest should leave. Xiang Ying will stay and I will tell the time."
"promise!"
Xiang Ying is a junior of Xiang Yan's family, he has always been brave and good at fighting, and is quite trusted by Xiang Yan, and Xiang Yan only asked him to lead 1000 troops, and a matter that can be done with 1000 people, in the eyes of everyone, it is just a small fight.
Except for Xiang Ying, they all dispersed at the moment.
After everyone left, Xiang Yan handed the secret letter to Xiang Ying with a serious face. Xiang Ying looked at it, his eyes widened, and he looked at Xiang Yan in puzzlement.
"It is said that the morale of the army is not stable." Xiang Yan said solemnly: "You immediately select 1000 troops to go to Shouchun, and I will send you a letter of divorce to the king, and the king ordered you to bring it back when you return."
Xiang Yan just planned to let Xiang Ying take 1000 people to Shouchun for a show, but come back again.
"What about the Qi State?" Xiang Ying asked puzzled.
"I have my own concerns about this matter!" After Xiang Yan finished speaking, she studied ink and made a book, which Xiang Ying presented to the king of Chu.
……
"Da Sima, this is a letter sent by Xiang Yan. What does Da Sima think?" Shouchun City was still in the palace of King Chu Chu, who delivered Xiang Yan's secret letter with a serious face. It was given to Jing Qi.
"The world is in turmoil so far. The Yan Dynasty is just lingering. The only big countries are Qin, Chu, and Qi. Qin is the most, Chu is the second, and Qi is the last. Now Qin and Chu are fighting, and they both disturb us. The one who seeks must land Ear.
Qin and Qi attacked together, and Great Chu was in danger!
Yan thought that the king would send envoys to Qi to cede the old land of Lu and Sishui with Qi, and the merchants would attack Qin together, and Qi would have a lot of grain. Even if they lost a piece of land, they would be able to avoid the disaster of destroying the country.
After the Qin Dynasty is broken, the land that was destroyed can still be charted. "
Xiang Yan's strategy seems a bit aggrieved, meaning that Qi State's attack on Chu State is nothing more than land. Xiang Yan suggested that the King of Chu directly cede a large area of the Huaihe River Basin to Qi State in exchange for Qi State's food and grass. support, and even directly sent troops to attack Qin.
Although Qin State is better than Chu State, most of its forces are concentrated in the border area. If Qi State turns to attack Qin State, the balance of victory in this war will undoubtedly be biased towards Chu State.
After defeating Qin State and ceding the land to Qi State, it is enough to fight back.
Chinese New Year is over, strive for two chapters every day... Well, strive for...
