My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Chapter 399 Zhao State sneak attacks on us, Chu State also joins in the fun? Then fight!

"No!"

"more than!"

Ying Chengyu suddenly realized something was wrong and asked quickly: "Where is the map of Kun Yu!"

When Ying Zheng saw this, he did not dare to neglect, and immediately waved his right hand, and Wang Bo and other four ministers unfolded a giant map of Kun on the main hall.

Ying Chengyu took a few steps forward, glanced back and forth on the map of Kun, and said urgently and seriously: "My brother has had many confrontations with Chu Shangzhu Guoyan and Chu Zuo Yinhuan."

"These two people focus on righteousness and combine with surprise. They will not take risks easily."

"Furthermore, these two people have considerable influence in Chu State. As long as Chu State's national strength can still support them, the King of Chu will not easily reject their request for help."

Ying Chengyu took the wooden pole handed over by Wang Bo, pointed at the city on the map of Kun and outlined two marching directions.

"Now Chu Shangzhu Guoyan led his troops westward to Jingling. Either he intended to use the main force to hold back General Jian's troops in order to recapture the territory of Jingling, Dengcheng, Yufu, and Wancheng."

"In the end, a forward military center was formed with Yingcheng, the old capital of the Chu State, as the center and Wushan and Funiu Mountains as its backbone. This would threaten the Bashu region of Qin and open up a new battlefield for Qin and Chu."

"Either they intend to take advantage of the Han River or Danyang River to go upstream, and then point their sword at Xianyang City to defeat our Qin capital in one battle!"

"However, no matter what the Chu State wants, the Chu State must consider the threat this move poses to our Great Qin."

"In this battle, we, Da Qin, will definitely send heavy troops to resist!"

The distance between Xianyang City and the State of Chu seems to be very far, but in fact it can also be very close.

As long as Xiang Yan can capture Dengcheng, Fancheng, and Lucheng, he can choose to go north to Danshui, pass through Xicheng, Wuguan, and Shang, and then directly enter Neishi County from Lantian County!

Or go west to the Han River, take the Changli, Wudang, and Hanzhong lines from Yongdu to Guanzhong, and then launch an attack on Qin from west to east!

The defense system built around Jingling, Yancheng, and Dengcheng was the bridgehead for Qin to guard the Han River and Dan River. It limited the water battle between Qin and Chu to a relatively small area and reduced the pressure on Qin's rear garrison.

For Great Qin, even if it surrenders Yingcheng, the former capital of Chu State, it cannot give up the first-line defense system of Jingling, Yancheng, and Dengcheng!

Ying Chengxuan pointed the wooden stick in his hand at Dahong Mountain: "It is impossible for Chu Shangzhu State to not have thought of this."

"So with Chu Shangzhu's temperament, it is impossible for him to march westward with only 80,000 troops."

"If I expected it to be good."

"The main infantry of Chu State is marching along the line of Dahong Mountain towards Yancheng and Dengcheng!"

"Even if its total military strength is not inferior to Chen Cheng's military strength, it won't be too far behind."

Retracting the wooden stick and patting his palms gently, Ying Chengyu said firmly: "Unless Chu Shangzhu and Guo Yan's troops are just bait for a feint attack."

"Of course, I think this possibility is not big."

Let Xiang Yan be used as bait?

Why should Qu Huan do that?

Not to mention that Zuo Yin's military power was slightly worse than that of Shangzhu.

Just based on Xiang Yan's status in the heart of King Chu, there is no way Xiang Yan can become a bait!

Wei Liao immediately handed over his hand: "I second the proposal!"

"Although our Da Qin border is currently in a weak position, this is only because our Da Qin is busy with the autumn harvest and has no time to recruit troops."

"Our Daqin territory is vast now. Even if we lose a city or a place, we still have time to recruit soldiers to meet the invading enemy."

"And our Lord Chang'an of the Great Qin Dynasty has not yet gone on an expedition. It is impossible for the rulers and ministers of Chu State not to take precautions against this."

"I believe that Chu Shangzhu's troops must not be less than 150,000."

"Unless this troop is just a bait!"

Wei Liao's judgment was the same as that of Ying Chengyu.

In addition to the list of reasons mentioned by Ying Chengxuan, Wei Liao also had the most important reason.

Ying Chengyu, who once rode in the capital of the Chu Kingdom, was still staying in Neishi County to teach his disciples!

Even if the Chu State remembers eating and not fighting, can it forget last year's disastrous defeat?

How dare Xiang Yan attack the southeastern territory of Qin with only 80,000 troops and horses!

Ying Chengyu waved his hand: "The officer's words are wrong."

"I am still far behind the generals."

"I cannot pose a strategic threat to the Chu State like Lord Wu An."

This is what Ying Chengyu is saying in his heart.

It doesn't matter if others don't know what you are capable of, but you can't let yourself drift away!

Wang Jian and Li Mu are still alive.

What qualifications do I have to surpass these two people and claim to be able to pose a strategic deterrent to the Chu State?

However, Yang Hu and other generals all handed over their hands: "The last general thinks that what the captain said is reasonable!"

Seeing that the generals had unified their views, Han Cang couldn't help but squeaked: "Chu State has sent 250,000 more troops to Chencheng, and the strength of the troops in the direction of Jingling is not much different from the strength in the direction of Chencheng?"

"Doesn't that mean that Chu State will invest more than 400,000 troops in this battle?!"

Han Cang's first reaction was, Chu country is so vast!

How could he afford to feed so many soldiers and horses with horse chews!

Then Han Cang realized another problem.

Zhao State sent 300,000 troops, and Chu State sent more than 400,000 troops. If Qin State did not want to sit still and wait for death, it could only send heavy troops to resist!

Han Cang almost burst into tears: "Your Majesty! Colleagues!"

"This year's food has not been confiscated!"

Han Cang waited and waited, and finally waited for the Zheng Guo Canal to be repaired, and for the Chang'an Lift to be built.

After finally looking forward to the autumn harvest, we are just a short step away from enjoying the joy of the harvest.

As a result, you told me that no one collected the grain?

Thinking of the golden millet seedlings in the field that were about to sprout and become moldy, Han Cang's eyes were already red.

He feels distressed!

Wei Liao sighed helplessly: "It's too late."

"Chu and Zhao took advantage of our great Qin's autumn harvest to launch a brazen attack!"

"Watching the battle report, we can see that both Chu and Zhao made sudden attacks and violent attacks. As soon as they entered a city, they immediately rushed to the next city."

"Chu and Zhao did not give their own soldiers time to rest and recuperate, and they did not give me, Great Qin, time to harvest autumn grain!"

"If we, the Qin Dynasty, sit back and watch the defeat at the front and only focus on collecting food, our country, the Qin Dynasty, will surely lose a large area of ​​territory in this battle!"

Han Cang said anxiously: "Guo Wei said it easily."

"If the autumn grain cannot be harvested, what will the soldiers eat? What will the war horses chew?"

"The soldiers and horses have not yet moved the food and grass. Now that the food and grass are gone, even if our Great Qin sends heavy troops to resist, how long can we hold on!"

"If our country in the Qin Dynasty has no food supply in a few months, the soldiers on the front line will definitely collapse at a moment's notice, or even defect on the spot."

"What awaits us as Great Qin will be an even more disastrous defeat!"

If we don't send troops, the enemy will seize large areas of territory and acres of land, and single-handedly destroy the advantageous situation gained through years of management.

Sending troops and not having enough food to support the army for a long battle is likely to cause an even greater defeat.

This seems to be an unsolvable problem.

Ying Chengxuan replied with a cold voice: "I love peace and pursue self-sufficiency in order to cultivate the people of Qin."

"Of course, I will never forget that as long as I can remember, my country, Great Qin, has often sent troops outside after the autumn harvest."

"This move is not only to seize other countries' territory, but also to seize other countries' food and grass."

"This year, the two countries Zhao and Chu actually regard our country Qin as a granary?"

Playing with Da Qin's "neighbors collect grain and I store guns, neighbors are my granaries"?

Da Qin is the ancestor of the gun garrison!

Zhao, Han, Wei, and Chu, which country has not been regarded as a granary by the Qin Dynasty?

Even the barren Yuezhi, Xiongnu and Qiang served as the granary of Great Qin!

Due to the expansion of territory, the cultivation of fertile fields and the emergence of the Chang'an plow, Great Qin paid more and more attention to self-sufficiency.

But this does not mean that Da Qin has forgotten its housekeeping skills!

Ying Chengyu cupped his hands and saluted again: "My brother, please give me your advice again."

"Send out a large number of troops to conquer the enemy's country and feed the enemy!"

"Since Zhao and Chu do not want me, the head of Great Qin, to eat the food grown on the land of my Great Qin."

"Then let me, the head of Qin and Guizhou, eat the food grown on the land of Zhao and Chu!"

After his previous private advice was vetoed by Ying Zheng, Ying Chengyu publicly raised this advice again in the main hall!

Following this, the generals echoed:

"Zhao attacked us secretly, and Chu also came to join in the fun? Then fight!"

"Yes, I, Da Qin, are obsessed with farming this year, but if the enemy does not allow me, Da Qin, to farm with peace of mind, then I, Da Qin, will plant the enemy's country into the ground and let the enemy's country become fertilizer for our Da Qin's soil!"

"The last general invites you to fight!"

Even Wei Liao and other foreign guests and civil servants all handed over:

"I second the proposal!"

Ying Chengyu's advice was indeed radical.

But the situation is so critical that urgent measures must be taken to resolve the chaos!

On the high platform, Ying Zheng stood up and spoke in a deep voice: "The two countries of Chu and Zhao took advantage of the autumn to send out their troops, and only gave me, Da Qin, two roads."

"One is just living an ignoble existence, preserving this year's grain to fill the stomachs of the people of Qin."

"The other is to send troops to resist and defend the food, territory and honor of Qin with blood."

"Of course, living an ignoble existence does not belong to Da Qin!"

"Why should I, the Qin Dynasty, be afraid of fighting to the death!"

Ying Chengyu and all the generals shouted excitedly: "The Qin Dynasty will be victorious!"

Ying Zheng smiled happily: "All generals dare to fight, our Great Qin will win!"

"My dear friends, what do you think should be done in this battle?"

Just as the generals were looking at the Kunyu map and thinking about it, Meng Tian suddenly stepped forward and handed over his hands: "Please report to your Majesty."

"My minister came to the door today to invite travelers from the Kingdom of Yan to enter the palace to discuss matters, but found that there were only a few servants in the palace of the Kingdom of Yan."

"The travelers from Yan State, the hostages of Yan State, and Prince Dan have all escaped!"

Ying Zheng showed just the right amount of surprise and anger: "Is this happening?!"

Ying Chengyuan looked at Ying Zheng speechlessly, but he couldn't help but admire him.

Look at Ying Zheng’s acting skills!

That's called a natural thing!

The officials of the Qin State were in an uproar: "What does the State of Yan want? King Yan is willing to betray the alliance again!"

"I knew earlier that King Yan would treat the alliance as a waste of money, but today I know that King Yan is really such a despicable villain!"

"Yan Zhizi escaped so quickly. I think King Yan had already anticipated this battle. The possibility of Yan's participation in the war is extremely high!"

"If Yan joins forces with Zhao and Chu, what awaits us, Great Qin, may be another world war!"

It was already difficult enough for Zhao and Chu to join forces and attack Qin.

The Yan Kingdom also wants to join in the fun?

For a time, the already heavy pressure in the hearts of the ministers became even heavier.

Wei Liao stepped forward and held his hand: "I think it is true that King Yan is willing to betray the alliance."

"However, King Yan may not necessarily have the courage to join forces with Zhao and Chu to attack the Qin Dynasty."

"Even if King Xi of Yan really wants to attack our country, Qin, as long as we send a general to guard the northeast, we can make the Yan army retreat without a fight!"

When Ying Zheng heard this, he nodded slightly and said, "The officer's words are true."

Wei Liao looked at Ying Chengxuan: "In my opinion, the person most suitable to lead the army to shock the Yan Kingdom is none other than Lord Chang'an!"
