"Grand Duke, judging from the marching speed of our army, at most tomorrow at dusk, our army will be able to reach the city of Xianyang!"

Listening to the reports of the scouts, Li Mu was in a good mood.

This is the first time he has come to attack this tall and majestic city?

Although every time he comes here, Li Mu will leave some very good memories, but the problem is that these memories are beautiful, but they can't hide a fact.

Xianyang City is also the Xianyang City of Qin.

To be honest, this makes Li Mu feel a little uncomfortable every time he thinks about these luscious victories.

But fortunately, this time, Li Mu finally had a chance to relieve his previous depression.

If Xianyang City is captured again this time, then this city will never return to the arms of the Qin people.

Thinking of this, Li Mu's mood couldn't help but become happy, and he said to Pang Xuan beside him: "Pang Qing, how long do you think it will take our army to capture this Xianyang City this time?" ”

As the deputy general appointed by Zhao Dan to Li Mu this time, Pang Xuan's mood is also very good.

In fact, Pang Xuan, as an important minister of Longtai with older qualifications and higher status, was sent by Zhao Dan to Li Mu as a deputy general this time, and the old general's heart was actually not very happy.

But when people get older, they will have more scruples, and they will become more stable and think more comprehensively.

Therefore, Pang Xuan also went through a comprehensive and steady thinking before taking over the position of deputy general.

First of all, as long as you are not blind, you can see that Zhao Dan attaches great importance to Li Mu, and you also know that in the next twenty or thirty years, the entire military circle of Zhao State will be Li Mu's stage.

Then, Li Mu himself did not have much malice towards Pang Xuan's Gong Clan, and even the two sides joined forces on some issues to suppress the arrogance of the Buyi faction.

In the end, Pang Xuan is already very old, and he may really die when he will die. It would be too stupid to provoke a great enemy like Li Mu for the Pang family before his death, which is destined to be brilliant for decades.

After figuring out these factors, General Pang Xuan accepted this setting very happily, and happily became Li Mu's deputy general in the battle to destroy Qin, and there was no complaint in the whole process, and he was very conscientious.

So after Li Mu spoke, the old general also laughed, and the beard on his chin kept shaking with the opening and closing of his lips: "Dadu Governor, now that Wang Qian's army has been defeated by our army, the people of Qin are already panicking, I want to come in at most one month, Xianyang City will be owned by my Zhao State!" ”

Of course, Pang Xuan is very confident in what he said.

In the previous battle, most of the 250,000 troops led by King Jian of Qin were annihilated and captured, and only a small part escaped from Shengtian and fled back to Xianyang.

Under such circumstances, even if the defenders in the original Xianyang City were added, the Qin State could only use only 50,000 or 60,000 people.

For the more than 300,000 troops under Li Mu's command, 50,000 or 60,000 Qin defenders who are in constant fear are not a matter at all.

Li Mu smiled and nodded, and said to Pang Xuan: "Now it seems that there should be no problem in taking Guanzhong." ”

Li Mu really hopes to win Guanzhong.

After all, from a geographical point of view, once Li Mu wants to open up the Western Regions for Zhao in the future and carry out a westward expedition, then Guanzhong is Li Mu's best supply point.

Starting from Guanzhong, then along the Hexi Corridor to the west, through the westernmost side of the Qilian Mountains, you can reach the legendary Western Regions.

In the past two years, although Li Mu has mainly fought in the Central Plains, Hu Yiwei of Zhao has been transmitting a steady stream of information for Li Mu.

Through this information, Li Mu learned that the Yueshi people, who had been defeated by himself a few years ago and then defeated by the Xiongnu and Wusun people, had fled to the Western Regions, and established a country there called the Dayue Clan.

In addition, Li Mu also knew that the Western Regions was actually a very large land, about the same size as the Zhao State before the Battle of Changping, and maybe even larger.

There are vast deserts, many oases, and small countries that are more numerous than the stars in the sky, and the wars there are comparable to those of the Central Plains in the Spring and Autumn Period, where many countries are destroyed almost every year, and many new countries rise from the ruins.

Li Mu likes all this very much.

Because Li Mu knew very well that it was a paradise for cavalry.

Although Li Mu does not reject the feeling of leading tens of thousands of troops all the way to destroy the city, in the final analysis, Li Mu still prefers cavalry.

As a general and a commander, Li Mu is like an incomparably sharp sword, piercing all the difficulties and dangers in front of Zhao Dan and eliminating all the ghosts and charms.

A general without an opponent is lonely, and Li Mu does not want to be a general without an opponent.

So the existence of the Western Regions is really good.

As for Xianyang City in front of you, in fact...... It was no longer within Li Mu's consideration.

Li Mu didn't think about it, but the people in Xianyang City had to think about it.

Qin Wang Chu looked at Wang Jian who was kneeling on the ground, and his eyes flashed with a very complicated light.

"Wang Qian, do you know what kind of war you lost?"

Qin Wang Chu's words were almost gritted his teeth, word by word, and came out of his teeth.

Wang Jian did not open his mouth to make any excuses for himself, but knelt there quietly, waiting for Qin Wang Chu's final judgment on himself.

Nowadays, any words seem superfluous.

At the head of Qin Wang Chu, Lu Buwei watched all this coldly, and did not intend to save Wang Jian from fire and water, let alone fall into the well for Wang Qian.

Cai Ze wanted to speak again and again, but in the end he sighed imperceptibly, and then gave up the desire to speak.

Now, it is no longer a question of whether Wang Jian can be saved, but whether the Qin State can still be saved.

Qin Wang Chu did not have any affection for Wang Jian because Wang Jian did not speak, he scolded Wang Jian very angrily, and finally issued an order in a deep voice: "Come on, drag this defeated general to the widow, punish him, put him on death row and be pardoned, and all family members will be accepted as subordinate ministers and concubines!" ”

As soon as Qin Wang Chu's words fell, a gasping sound suddenly sounded in the hall.

Bin Punishment, one of the five punishments of the Xia Shang Dynasty, also known as the punishment of slashing, is the punishment of cutting off the foot or cutting off the kneecap of the prisoner.

The famous ghost military master Sun Bin was once tortured by his brother Pang Juan, and Sun Bin's name came from this, which made future generations forget his real name.

There is no doubt that this is an absolute form of torture.

A kind of torture that makes life worse than death.

Coupled with the four words of forgiveness or forgiveness, Wang Jian will basically only be able to spend his life in the black prison from now on.

In addition, the whole family was reduced to slavery, and basically Wang Qian's family was completely abolished from then on.

This is even more uncomfortable than directly killing Wang Qian, because it represents endless and lifelong humiliation.

But no one pleaded for Wang Qian.

In fact, there are even many people who gloat that it can be just a punishment, and this is mostly because the king sees the Wang family's repeated military exploits for Great Qin over the years.

Of course, now that Wang Jian is punished, he is basically no different from a dead man, and may even be worse than a dead man.

Even Wang Qian, who was already in the dust, couldn't help but shake after hearing Qin Wang Chu's words, but he still bowed down slowly, and said in a hoarse voice that could barely be heard: "Minister, thank you for your grace." ”

Wang Jian was dragged down.

Qin Wang Chu stared at Wang Qian's departing figure, looking like he wanted to cut Wang Jian with a thousand knives inside.

Of course, Qin Wang Chu can kill Wang Qian, but Qin Wang Chu doesn't want to let Wang Jian go so easily, he wants to make Wang Jian worse than dead!

After Wang Jian finally left, Qin Wang Chu breathed a sigh of relief as if he had taken revenge, and then said softly to the ministers of Qin in front of him: "Zhuqing, now let's talk about how to face Zhao Jun's problem. ”

There was a sudden silence in the hall.

Lu Buwei's eyes rolled around, and he suddenly stood up and said, "King, the minister has a book." ”
