Chapter 346: The Roof Leak Happened to Rain Overnight (Third Update)
Because of this, when the messenger sent Wang Di's second urgent report two hours later, Fan Sui was not even in the mood to open this urgent report.
Fan Sui finally opened the urgent report.
The content of this second urgent report is actually very simple, and it also verifies Fan Sui and Qin Wangji's previous worries.
Wei Wuji did lead the Three Kingdoms Alliance army to Wancheng in time, and at the same time, he also delayed the pace of Wang Yu's troops going north to help in time.
Although Wang Ji still has more than 200,000 troops in his hands, Wei Wuji's troops also exceed 150,000, although the number is not as large as Wang Ji's, but there is no problem in holding Wang Yu firmly in check.
After reading this urgent report, Fan Sui was silent for a long time.
Qin Wangji was not in a coma for too long, only a few hours later, when it was almost dusk, Qin Wangji woke up.
After waking up, Qin Wangji sent someone to tell Fan Sui such a sentence.
"Go and ask to see King Zhao immediately, and say that the widow is going to negotiate peace with him immediately, go quickly!"
This order was actually not unexpected by Fan Sui, but when Fan Sui heard this order, his heart was inevitably full of bitterness.
originally thought that the moment of counterattack could finally come, and finally let this proud and shameless Zhao Wangdan suffer a defeat.
But Fan Sui never expected that it would be so fast to fall from the peak to the bottom.
Since Zhao began to join this war, Anyi, or Hedong, has become a place that must not be lost.
After losing Hedong County, Qin State did not have any capital to continue to resist stubbornly in this war, and could only sue for peace with Zhao State in great humiliation.
If Qin did not sue for peace at this time, then the more than 200,000 Sanjin coalition troops led by Lian Po were even likely to directly cross the Yellow River and attack Guanzhong to besiege Xianyang, the capital of Qin.
Without Wang Di's main force, the Qin State couldn't even hold Guanzhong!
In a sense, this defeat of the Qin State is somewhat similar to the time when Kuang Zhang led the alliance of Qi, Wei and Han to break through the Hangu Pass a few decades ago.
At that time, the army led by Kuang Zhang was also eyeing Xianyang and had the ability to encircle Xianyang.
But fortunately, in the end, the then prime minister of the Qi State, Meng Weijun and Tian Wen, gave up his plan to continue attacking the Qin State because he was afraid that Han Wei would take advantage of the situation.
Almost two generations after that defeat, Xianyang, the capital of Qin, was once again exposed to the forces of other countries.
In that defeat, Qin Wangji also had to cede land and pay reparations, so that the Three Kingdoms Alliance finally withdrew.
But this time, the enemy standing in front of Qin Wangji was no longer the arrogant King of Qi, but Zhao Dan, the monarch of Zhao who had just ascended the throne for only a few years.
It was precisely because of the short-sightedness of King Qi and Meng Weijun that the Qin State was able to recover quickly after a major defeat.
This time, will Zhao Dan still make the same mistakes as King Qi and Meng Weijun?
To be honest, Fan Sui was not sure at all in his heart.
But no matter what, the most important thing at the moment is, of course, to carry out the tasks ordered by Qin Wangji.
So Fan Sui immediately sent an envoy to the camp of Zhao State to ask to see Zhao Dan.
The messenger went quickly, and he returned quickly.
The reason why he came back so quickly was because the envoy didn't see Zhao Dan at all, and he was directly blasted out at the gate of Zhao Guo's camp.
After hearing the indignant envoy's arrogant and unreasonable accusation against Zhao Dan, Fan Sui motioned for the envoy to retreat.
When the envoy retreated, Fan Sui's face became much gloomy.
The reason why Qin Wangji wanted to send an envoy to negotiate peace with Zhao Dan so quickly was of course for a reason.
But judging from Zhao Dan's current performance, it is clear that Zhao Guo has also known the news from Anyi - maybe even earlier than the people of Qin Guo.
In this way, the possibility that Qin Wangji and Fan Sui wanted to use such a short time to make a time difference and strive to make Qin Guo retreat to the maximum extent is completely non-existent.
Fan Sui thought for a long time, and finally stood up with a long sigh: "Since this is the case, then I will personally go to see King Zhao." ”
This is also a matter of no choice, since a small envoy has been proven to be no longer qualified, then it can only be done by Fan Sui, the prime minister of the Qin State.
Soon, Fan Sui led his entourage to the outside of the Zhao State camp.
In front of Fan Sui was the tightly closed gate of the Zhao State camp, as well as the many vigilant Zhao soldiers behind the camp.
"Whoever is ahead, report your name!"
Fan Sui said loudly: "Please pass through King Zhao, Fan Sui asks to see!" ”
Fan Sui felt that his personal visit should be said to be very sincere, and Zhao Dan should be satisfied enough.
As long as Zhao Dan can be stabilized, even if Hedong County is lost, the whole thing still has room to turn around.
And after a short period of discouragement, Fan Sui suddenly felt that if he did this well, then the matter of Xiangbang's position might not be without a turnaround......
Fan Sui sat quietly on the carriage, waiting for the opening of the Zhao State camp in front of him.
But a moment later, Fan Sui got an answer that surprised him.
"Wait, the king is unwell today, and he won't see any guests!"
After hearing this answer, Fan Sui was speechless for a long time.
What kind of physical discomfort is naturally just a pretext.
Zhao Dan is not Qin Wangji, he will only faint with laughter when he hears the battle report of Hedong County, it is impossible to vomit blood directly and coma like Qin Wangji.
But even if he knew that it was an excuse, Fan Sui was also helpless about it.
People just don't want to see you, what can you do?
I can't help it.
Who let the current Qin State not be able to defeat the Zhao State.
Right in front of Fan Sui, the sun on the horizon was slowly setting towards the horizon.
Darkness is coming, and the flame of hope in Fan Sui's heart will not begin to dim slowly.
Zhao Dan was reluctant to meet Fan Sui, which was definitely an extremely dangerous signal.
This means that Zhao Dan has no intention of stopping this war, at least for now.
If this is really the case, then Xianyang, the capital of the Qin State, is really dangerous, very dangerous, and it is simply dangerous.
You must know that attacking Xianyang from Hedong is much closer than returning to Xianyang from Wancheng.
What's more important is that at this moment, the main force of the more than 200,000 Qin troops in Wang Di in Wancheng was still firmly held back by the hundreds of thousands of Three Kingdoms Alliance troops led by Wei Wuji.
Even if Wang Yi was able to lead the main force of the Qin army wisely and skillfully to defeat Wei Wuji's Three Kingdoms Alliance, and then rush back to help, and arrive before Xianyang was broken.
But at that time, after a series of battles and rushes, Wang Di, who was definitely sleepy and tired, could really fight Lian Po, who had already surrounded Xianyang prematurely and waited for work?
It's hard, it's too hard.
To put it bluntly, Qin's hope of victory is basically infinitely close to zero.
It was at this time that a person's name suddenly flashed in Fan Sui's heart.
A name that Fan Sui once wanted to kill and then hurry.
White up.
If Bai had risen up to command this war, maybe the Qin State would not have fallen to this point, right?
It's a pity that there is no if.
Fan Sui shook his head lightly, driving out all the thoughts about Bai Qi in his mind.
In any case, Fan Sui must see Zhao Dan today.
Every night and one day, Xianyang and Guanzhong are a little more dangerous!
So Fan Sui got out of the carriage and came to the Zhao army's camp in full view of everyone, trying to communicate with the commander of the Zhao army.
However, no matter how hard Fan Sui tried, everything he did did did not get any reward.
The huge gate of Zhao Jun's camp was tightly closed, and there was no sign of opening.
All this made the entourage around Fan Sui look angry and aggrieved.
The dignified Prime Minister of the Qin State is now so low-voiced, and he wants to say good things to these guards of the Zhao State battalion.
And then I was ruthlessly rejected by others without giving any face!
If it weren't for Fan Sui's restraint, and the soldiers of the Zhao Army at the camp had been pointing at the group of people around Fan Sui with their winding bows and crossbows, a fire fight would definitely be inevitable.
The sun finally set completely, the earth was completely engulfed in darkness, and Fan Sui finally gave up his plan to continue persuading.
But Fan Sui did not leave the Zhao army camp immediately after giving up, but still stood there, looking like a clay sculpture without moving, completely ignoring the advice of his entourage.
In this world, people can do without anything, but they can't be without hope.
Fan Sui felt that maybe the Qin State might really have hope, but he was afraid that he really had no hope.
This made Fan Sui extremely desperate.
It took a long time for Fan Sui to move his body and open his mouth with some difficulty.
"Back to camp."
You must know that Qin Wangji is still in the camp of the Qin State, waiting for Fan Sui's return.
When it was time for Fan Sui to return to the camp, Qin Wangji immediately summoned Fan Sui.
After Qin Wangji, who was lying on the bed, heard Fan Sui's return, the king of Qin was very rare and did not get angry, but fell into deep thought.
After the palace people around him served and drank the last bowl of soup, Qin Wangji suddenly said, "Help the widow up." ”
The palace people didn't dare to slack off, and immediately helped Qin Wangji up.
Qin Wangji spoke again: "Prepare a chariot and horse honor guard for the widow." ”
Fan Sui's body was shocked, he raised his head in surprise, and said, "The king is unwell now, so it is not appropriate to go out." ”
Qin Wangji's face showed a wry smile: "Fan Jun, Fan Jun, you are smart, why are you confused for a while?" That Zhao Dan is waiting for the widow now! And just prepare the carriage and horse honor guard, and the widow will now leave for the camp of Zhao Guo and talk to that Zhao Dan child in person! ”
