Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 154
Xiang Yan's plan, in the eyes of today's people, is a good way to save Chu, but in the eyes of people at that time, Xiang Yan's plan was too bold.

Such a large area will definitely be able to satisfy the appetite of Qi State.Don't you see that King Huai of Chu could sever the covenant with Qi for the illusory land of [-] miles that Zhang Yi talked about.

However, King Chu of Chu understood more clearly that once he did this, the saliva on the court alone could spray him to death.

After reading the secret letter, Jing Qi couldn't help but be shocked by Xiang Yan's boldness. Although Jing Qi has always acted decisively, Xiang Yan's strategies these two times were somewhat beyond Jing Qi's ability to bear.

The first time it was suggested to wipe out all the monarchs and patriarchs, this time it was better to directly propose to cede a large area of ​​​​territory in exchange for the support of Qi State.

Although Jing Qi understands that Xiang Yan's two strategies are beneficial to the state of Chu, and it can even be said that once it is successful, it will benefit forever, but as the most trusted person of the king of Chu in the capital, at this time he dare not promise.

Once there is a change, he, Jing Qi, cannot bear the responsibility.

"The veteran thinks that the general's strategy is too risky, and the current situation of Chu State is still safe."

Jing Qi thought again and again, and said slowly.

"What do you mean by Da Sima's words?" King Chu asked suspiciously.

"My minister thinks that it is better to divide the army into two groups for the sake of safety. You can send a general to lead an army of 20 to defend the Qi.

On the front line of Pingyu, the Qin people have only harassed them from time to time in the past year. Our army can choose an experienced general to defend them, and they can't stick to it.Although there are only more than [-] people who are not as good as Qin, they should be worthy of it. "

Jing Qi expressed his idea of ​​dividing his troops into two groups to defend against the enemy.

In his opinion, although after the division of troops, the army defending Qin was at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, but it should be enough to just defend and not take the initiative to attack.

"If you are a seasoned general, you must be the great Sima. Although the general is old, can he do his best for the country?" After listening to Jing Qi's narration, King Chu, who had been frowning all this time, finally relaxed, and returned with a smile. road.

Obviously, compared to Xiang Yan's risky move, Chu Wang Xiangchu was more inclined to Jing Qi's relatively conservative opinion.

Although Jing Qi did not have the record of going out, he has always been known for leading the army in battle. If it is just defense, Jing Qi should be competent enough in the hearts of King Chu.

"Your Majesty Meng will not give up, but Qi has never had a relationship with the Qin Army, and I am afraid that you will lose the entrustment of your Majesty." Faced with the proposal to lead the army, Jing Qi thought to himself that he had never dealt with the Qin Army, and was worried that he would not be competent. But after a little thought, he continued:
"If you talk about experienced generals, there are two people in Shouchun City alone who are far better than me. If these two come out, they will definitely be in the Qin army."

"Who is Da Sima referring to?" Ling Chu asked.

Now in the state of Chu, if there is any general who can serve as the Qin army, Xiang Yan is none other than Xiang Yan. Other than that, Li Chu can't think of anyone else who has this ability.

"Did your majesty forget that Zhao's famous general Lian Po is also in Shouchun at this time?" Jing Qi replied.

Lian Po left Zhao and went to Wei because of Guo Kai's slander when King Zhao Mourning took the throne. Later, he was secretly welcomed to Shouchun by Chu State and served as a general.

However, Lian Po was old, and Chu State welcomed Lian Po only for Lian Po's former prestige. In Shouchun, he was just a servant of the beautiful house, and made a good confession, and did not let him lead the army.

"Is Lian Po still alive?" Lu Chu asked suspiciously.

Hearing Li Chu's words, Jing Qi also had a black line on his face, "Lian Po is old and can eat!" Then it was offered as a mascot, and it has not been reused since then, and it has been more than ten years since then.

Although Lu Chu knew about the incident back then, he hadn't heard about Lian Po in the past ten years, and Lu Chu thought that the great god Lian Po had long since passed away.

"The old general is still in good health, but he is about eighty-five years old." Jing Qi replied honestly.

After listening to Jing Qi's answer, King Chu, who was originally in high spirits, immediately became sluggish.

"Although Lian Po is brave, he is really old. The lonely and frightened old general has no energy, and the fact that the country is big does not dare to trust him."

Although Lian Po's deeds are well known by the King of Chu, he was the master who made Bai Qi helpless on the battlefield back then, but he dared not take the risk of letting an 85-year-old old man take on such a big task .

"Zhao uses Lord Lian, and Xianyang is afraid of his neighbors. If you stop pushing the boss, who can resist Qin." Although he dared not let Lian Po take up this important role, he still admired Lian Po's bravery in his prime.

"The decree passed on by Gu is to be used by General Lian." After a few sighs of emotion, Lu Chu continued: "The Great Sima said that there are two people who can be the ones. I don't know who else is there besides General She Lian?"

"Young Master Qi!" Three words that he didn't want to face came out of Jing Qi's mouth.

The son, Qi, is the former prime minister of the Qin State, Changping Jun. He was born to the daughter of King Qin Zhao when Xiong Yuan, king of Chu Kaolie, was the hostage of the state of Qin.

It's just that when King Kaolie fled from Qin State, he was left in Qin State because of the critical situation and failed to take care of it.

Because the Empress Dowager Xuan, who was in power at that time, loved Xiong Qi, who had the blood of the royal families of Qin and Chu, so Xiong Qi lived a prosperous life in Qin State. Not only was he named Changping Lord, but he was also the prime minister of Qin State. .

During the change of Lai Ai, it was precisely because Lord Changping and Lord Changwen stood firmly on Zhao Zheng's side and led the army to kill Lai Ai that the current King Qin came into being.

If not, the state of Qin intends to unify the world and threatens its mother state of Chu, whether Lord Changping will rebel or not is another matter.

Moreover, if according to the order of seniority, Xiong Qidang is the most senior heir to the throne of Chu, this half-brother is undoubtedly an important factor for Xiang Chu who ascended to the throne by murdering his brother. threat.

If it weren't for the fact that the people of Chu had affection for this son who was in a foreign country, and when Li Xin attacked Chu, Lord Changping decisively inserted a nail in the rear of the Qin army and made great contributions not to touch him, otherwise he would be defeated. Whether Chu can stay in Shouchun safely is still unknown.

"Young Master Qi has lived in the Qin State for a long time, and has been the prime minister. He knows the Qin army well. If Young Master Qi sits in Pingyu, he will be safe!" I don't know if Jing Qi is out of public interest, or he has the same feelings for Changping Lord as the Chu people Compassionate, as if he didn't see the increasingly ugly face of the negative cinder, he said to himself.

"Don't bring up this matter again, Da Sima, Pingyu Frontline, please trouble Da Sima to go there in person!" King Chu Chu said a little displeased.

"Respect!"

Seeing that the king of Chu is so determined, although Jing Qi lacks confidence in himself, but the king's order is hard to violate, he can't say much.

Can only do our best.
