This battle report reached Xianyang and shocked everyone.

The ministers gathered in Zhangtai Palace, and even Chang Yu came from Yongcheng to participate in this court meeting. The internal forces of the Qin State can fight with each other, but they will face the diplomatic war together.

Ying Zheng's face was sad, and Zhongli was even colder like an ice cube. Fan Yuzhi's defection, Cheng Chan defected to the enemy, and there were no more troops on the Changping front line to fight against Zhao Bing, which disrupted everyone's plans.

The people in the court didn't say a word, and the quiet drop of a needle could be heard. Now there are many branches of the Qin army, all of which are all over the country, and the strength of Hangu Pass is still insufficient, and it will take at least a month to make up for the troops.

What people are worried about is whether Li Mu will go all out to capture Hangu Pass? Now, there are no famous generals stationed there, who will be sent? How many troops to send? It's all worth studying. There must not be another battle of the Lycea, that is an insult to Great Qin.

Ying Zheng thought of a person, and in the face of this situation, he had to send Wang Jian to go. But the current Wang Jian is not enough in terms of qualifications. Whoever to send there needs to be advised by the ministers.

Lü Buwei first said: "Please ask General Mengwu to go to Hangu Pass, now only you go, the other generals can be convinced." At the same time, mobilize the surrounding troops and horses, assemble at Hangu Pass, and be sure to recapture the front line of Tunliu and Changping. This time, Zhao Guo besieged Tunliu, which should also be damaged, and Shangdang County could be taken down, forcing Li Mu not to dare to attack Hangu Pass. ”

Changping Jun nodded and said: "That's how it should be, as long as the army presses in, Li Mu has to retreat." At worst, you can take back the tunliu, and the camera moves, and Shangdang County always has to get it back. ”

Chang Yu didn't know much about this, so he just said: "With so many soldiers and horses rushing to go, is there a supply of grain and grass?" Ben Hou said first, the soldiers of Yongcheng cannot move, and a large number of soldiers and horses are needed to garrison the front line of the Great Wall. Recently, the Xiongnu cavalry has been moving frequently, and if there is no danger in Hangu Pass, the garrison should be transferred to the north to fight against the Xiongnu. ”

Lü Buwei and Changpingjun shook their heads at the same time, and Changpingjun said: "Now the discussion is to send troops to Hanguguan, not to shrink the troops to Yongcheng." There are priorities, and as long as the border is not too urgent, it can be talked about later. This time, mobilizing the troops that can be used must teach Zhao Guo a lesson. ”

Lu Buwei nodded and said, "That's it." ”

Chang Yu no longer objected, and all the ministers said that they would send troops, as long as the soldiers of Yongcheng were not moved, everything would be easy to say.

But they didn't know that Yingzheng did not want to go to war with Zhao, which was contrary to the established national policy.

Ying Zheng asked, "Chang Wenjun, if you start a war with Zhao again, how much money and food will you need?" ”

Mi Chen replied: "It's okay to stop the Zhao soldiers outside of Hangu Pass, if you attack the Shangdang County again and start a full-scale war with the Zhao State, the treasury will not be able to follow." In the first few diplomatic wars, there were too many losses, and Zheng Guoqu reached the most critical time, and he must not cut off money and food. ”

Ying Zheng nodded and said: "Then send troops to Hanguguan, try to avoid a full-scale war with Zhao Bing, and wait for Li Mu to retreat, and then go to take over the land of Tunliu and the eldest son." ”

The ministers looked at each other, and everyone said that they were at war with Zhao, why did the king oppose it? It's just a matter of money and food, the first few times it was so difficult, and I survived. This time it was a passive loss of the country, and Great Qin was insulted, so why didn't he go to war?

Lü Buwei said: "There must be a war, this war will not work, the king has not yet been in power, and he should listen to the advice of the ministers." If we agree on it, you can't object to it, otherwise it doesn't make sense. ”

Changpingjun also wanted to say so, but after thinking about it, he still didn't say it.

Ying Zheng said: "Even if it is agreed, this king cannot agree, because it is wrong." When the first king was here, we must not go against the established national policy of ten years of rest and recuperation. Even if he wins the Zhao State and obtains Shangdang County, can he break through Handan? ”

"If you can't break it, then why fight it? It is not a wise move to be brave. We are waiting for the rebellion of the nations, and within half a year, Li Mu will definitely lead his troops to retreat. We can't fight a big war, and neither can Zhao, and neither can we afford to consume it. Once this battle begins, another coalition of nations may be formed. ”

"I have made up my mind, let General Mengwu go to Hangu Pass to sit in town, and the rest of the generals will cooperate and hold it firmly. When Li Mu retreated, and then sent troops to garrison Tunliu and other places, this was much less than the loss of the war. ”

Chang Pingjun was puzzled: "Why did Li Mu retreat?" It doesn't make sense. My opinion is to attack Zhao State. ”

Lu Buwei shook his head and smiled: "Li Mu may not withdraw his troops, the king is just guessing, how can it be child's play on military affairs?" The current situation is different from when the previous king was there, in the past, we took the initiative to attack other countries, but now the Zhao people come to attack us first, where is there such a reason. ”

"Cheng Gongzi defected to the enemy and betrayed Daqin, and asked the king to order, post a notice, and seal the Emperor's Mansion to follow suit. I have sent an order to the government soldiers, united with the city guards, and have surrounded the Emperor Ming Mansion, just waiting for the king's order to confiscate the property of the Cheng Cheng family for military needs. ”

Ying Zheng stood up abruptly and said angrily: "Lord Zhongfu, without the order of this king, who would dare to raid the Emperor's Ming Mansion?" Cheng Chan's younger brother is a member of the royal family, and even if he wants to confiscate it, he can only deal with it by the royal family, and no one else can interfere. ”

Lu Buwei said-for-tat: "Shang Gong has agreed, he is the patriarch of the Ying clan and can represent the royal family." Command, O king. ”

Many ministers said in unison, "Please give the king's order." ”

Among the people who shouted, only Chang Yu and Mi Chen had no words, this was a forced palace and a decision to force Yingzheng. As long as there is the shadow of a businessman, Mi Chen will not agree, his eldest brother Mi Qi shouted, he can only remain neutral, so as not to be caught in the middle and difficult to do.

Chang Yu will not express his opinion, because he knows that Yingzheng is the baby bump in Zhao Ji's heart, and you people will definitely annoy the queen mother if they force the palace. Since Yingzheng's return, Zhao Ji rarely asked him to go to Ganquan Palace, and occasionally went to Yongcheng to have a look, and told Yinghao not to fight with Chang Yu and calm the peace in Yongcheng.

Although he didn't say such an order to Chang Yu, Chang Yu was clear that he said that others would not fight, and he persuaded himself not to fight in a different direction. Chang Yu has only been in Yongcheng for a long time, and the soldiers and horses under his command are not stable, which requires a process. If Yongcheng becomes a dominant family, Zhao Ji will not be able to explain to the other two queen mothers.

It's just a formality, those people are persecuting Yingzheng, and Chang Yu doesn't want to be contaminated with this bad luck.

Facing the voice of the ministers, Ying Zheng was furious in his heart, but he didn't show it, just sighed and said: "General Mengwu go to Hangu Pass, without the order of this king, no large-scale battle with Zhao soldiers is allowed." As for the raid of the Emperor's Ming Mansion, it was handed over to the swordsman to deal with. ”

"Retreat."

Ying Zheng threw up his sleeves and left, without looking at the ministers at all. The ministers were dumbfounded, it was the first time for the king to be so strong, and he opposed Lu Xiang and their opinions face to face. This is troublesome, if Yingzheng doesn't speak, it will be impossible for Empress Dowager Zhao Ji to stamp the seal.

The biggest headache is Lu Buwei, Cheng Chan has dry shares in the Ba family, and he has received a lot of dividends over the years. originally wanted to confiscate the Emperor's Mansion and provide military supplies for the war, but Yingzheng said directly and asked Zhong to leave to deal with it, and he didn't even give Shang Gong's face.

Let Zhongli meddle in the Emperor Ming Mansion, who would dare to quarrel with her? Lü Buwei couldn't figure it out, it was obvious that why didn't he attack Zhao State? Now Daqin, there is still the strength of a battle, at least let's get the benefits.

At this moment, no one could guess Yingzheng's thoughts, but Lu Buwei still said to Meng Wuyan: "General Meng, the king is still young, and he doesn't understand many things, you can act when you see the opportunity, and you must send troops when you should send troops, and you must let the Zhao people suffer a big loss." ”

Meng Wu said intriguingly: "Lu Xiang asked me to disobey the king's wishes? Although the king has not yet been in power, are you persecuting too hard? Forgive me for not agreeing with you, the generals of Great Qin, only listen to the king's orders, and sooner or later the king will have to govern himself. ”

Lu Buwei, Qi Qi and others were suddenly shocked, there is a difference between the monarch and the minister, is it forced to be ruthless this time. After thinking about it, I felt that there was nothing wrong with attacking Zhao State, so as to wash away the shame of losing the country, and it was Yingzheng who was wrong.

……

……

Back in the palace, Ying Zheng didn't even go to his own bedroom, and went into the bell hall and drank there to vent the anger in his heart. It's really annoying, those people keep saying that they are revenge on Zhao Guo, but in fact, they are all selfish and just want to make merit.

Where can there be a war now? In the previous diplomatic wars, so much has been lost. The previous generations of Qin kings handed over to their families were all knocked out in half, and the speed of the loser could not be so fast.

Ying Zheng said to Ling Yuyan: "Yu'er, you sent Jin Bronze to the Emperor Ming Mansion, without my order, no one can step into the mansion door." Where is the younger brother treason? It was to save their lives and save the lives of those soldiers, so they surrendered. ”

Zero Yu nodded and said, "I'll go there in person, I know it best." The tomb is still in the Emperor's Mansion and has been with me many times before, but I have never known his identity. Many of the dead soldiers of the Nie family have been trained in tombs, and there are indeed a few vaults in the Emperor Ming Mansion, all of which have been obtained by Cheng Gongzi from doing business with the Ba family over the years, and we should keep these private money for him. ”

Ying Zheng gritted his teeth and said: "Transfer the Seven Sword Girls to the Emperor Ming Mansion, and the Zongren Mansion will not be monitored, the one who should come will always come, and it is useless to blindly monitor." Since we want to fight, let's do a big job, we will devote ourselves to preparing for the school palace, and no matter who opposes it, I will build the school palace. ”

Hu Ji asked: "Confronting the ministers like this is very unfavorable to the eldest brother, and the establishment of the school palace should be considered in the long run, and it is not in a hurry." ”

Ying Zheng shook his head and sighed: "There is no time, because Chenxi's prediction is very accurate, Fan Yuzhi's defection and Cheng Chan's defection are all in her prediction." After a few days, those whom she thought were going to die would gradually die. If I can't establish the school palace at this time, then I can only wait until after the unification of the Central Plains. ”

"But I don't think I can wait for that day. Ten years later, a big war awaits us. ”

Ten years later, the Battle of the Blood Sacrifice.

Hu Ji was terrified, and as the son of Yingzheng and Blood, he must participate in it. In the face of Xianyang's game of chess, he has to play well as soon as possible, and the time is really too little. If the rebellion in the Central Plains cannot be resolved within ten years, or the great victory against the Xiongnu, how many people will still be alive after the first battle?

Zero Yu understood what Yingzheng meant, he couldn't afford to wait, God knows how many people would survive that battle. The news that comes at all, all the top masters will participate in it. If there are other things involved, it is very likely that Zhongli, Chenxi, Mi Run, and countless other relatives will die.

Everyone in the Zhong Hall knew the seriousness of the matter, and everyone acted separately to obtain the capital to establish the Xue Palace for Ying Zheng.
