"Your Majesty, should we announce this news?”
Zhang Han asked Ying Zheng.
"There's no need to announce the news, otherwise, once this news is leaked, it will scare the Qi and Chu allied army away.”
Ying Zheng shook his head.
The reason why he had set up so many.
Just to fish.
The current situation.
He was a fisherman, and the three kingdoms that had already been conquered were like bait.
And this Qi Chu alliance army was the fish he wanted to catch.
If this news was released now, even though it could boost the morale of the entire city, once the Qi and Chu allied army knew about it, he would lose his bait.
This big fish would probably turn around and run.
Then all his previous arrangements would be in vain.
"I understand."
Zhang Han nodded.
"Alright, let's leave this matter as it is. The Network and the Black Ice Platform, remember to keep an eye on the movements of the Qi and Chu allied forces.”
Then, Ying Zheng said.
"Your humble subject obeys."
Zhao Gao and Zhang Han left after a brief acknowledgment.
……
Not long after Zhao Gao and Zhang Han left.
Prime Minister Wang Wan, Imperial Censor Li Si, and Tingwei Feng Quji came together to see Ying Zheng.
"Your Majesty, the Qi and Chu allied army has entered Dan Yang and is less than five hundred miles away from the capital of Qin State, Xianyang.”
After Ying Zheng let them in, Prime Minister Wang Wan said.
Since it was an act, there naturally had to be someone to accompany the act.
Otherwise, if he saw through it, he might run away.
After all, no one was stupid.
Besides, Han Fei was a smart man in Xiang Yan's army.
"I think Li Xin is not bad. This time, let him lead the troops and lure the Qi and Chu allied army into the trap.”
Ying Zheng listed out the candidates that he had already prepared for.
"Your Majesty, is Li Xin too young?”
Hearing Ying Zheng's suggestion, Wang Wan immediately objected.
Li Xin was strong and brave, and had made many military achievements. He had become a two-hundred-five-hundred Lord, leading a thousand men. He was one of the more promising and prominent figures among the younger generation of the Qin State, and was also one of the young generals trusted by the King of Qin, Ying Zheng.
But he was still too young.
He was only twenty years old this year.
He was not much older than Ying Zheng.
How could he be an important person who led tens of thousands of Qin troops to deal with the Qi and Chu allied forces and lure them into the trap?
"Only the young need to train. Besides, who said that the young can't do things?”
"Although I am young, I still manage the Qin country in an orderly manner, right?”
Ying Zheng asked Wang Wan.
Wang Wan was immediately rendered speechless by Ying Zheng's rebuttal.
Ever since His Majesty took over the government, his achievements were obvious to all. He could not deny Ying Zheng's achievements, could he?
Besides, even if Ying Zheng had not made any achievements since he came to power, he would not dare to say so.
Unless he wanted to die.
"Your Majesty, I agree with your words.”
Seeing that Prime Minister Wang Wan was being held back by Ying Zheng, Li Si and Feng Quji immediately agreed.
"Alright, I'll let the eunuchs draft the decree and let Li Xin make preparations. Calculating the time, it won't be long before Generals Wang He, Wang Jian, and Meng Ao return.”
Then, Ying Zheng said.
Seeing that the Emperor had already decided on the candidates for the three generals, Wang Wan and the other two did not say anything more and took their leave.
"Men, pass down the decree. The Qi and Chu allied army is coming. They have wild ambitions and want to destroy our Great Qin. I hereby appoint Li Xin as the general and lead 20,000 cavalry, 20,000 infantry, and 10,000 archers to stop the Qi and Chu allied army.”
After Prime Minister Wang Wan and the others left, Ying Zheng issued an order.
……
Half a month later.
General Xiang Yan of the Qi and Chu allied army led 500,000 troops through Dan Yang and stepped into the borders of Qin country.
What made Xiang Yan feel strange was…
Along the way, they did not encounter any decent resistance.
Even the Qin army guarding the border was defeated.
"Could it be that the Qin State has raised 400,000 troops to attack the three countries of Yan, Han, and Zhao, causing the country to be empty?”
Xiang Yan is a burly man with a curly beard and a six-foot-tall body. He is dressed in silver-scaled armor and is sitting on his warhorse, deep in thought.
He had originally planned to order his troops to split into three groups and advance from the other two directions at the same time. They would use lightning tactics to surround Xianyang and force the Qin army to retreat.
Now, it seemed that there was no need.
After all, once they split up, the 500,000 strong Qi Chu army would be split up.
Therefore, it was better to do this. They would gather their troops and form a rope. As long as they scared the Qin country and made them feel fear, they would recall the 450,000 troops that attacked the Yan, Han, and Zhao countries. Then, their goal would be achieved.
They advanced for another two to three days.
Along the way, the Qin country's cities were almost on the lookout.
It could also be seen that from the direction of Danyang, the defense of the cities towards Xianyang was almost lax, and there were not many soldiers that could be used.
However, this time, their Qi and Chu alliance army did not come to the Qin country to attack the city.
Instead, it was about the action of besieging Wei to save Zhao, saving Yan, Han, and Zhao.
With the current number one country in the world, even if they seized the cities of the Qin country now, when the main army of the Qin country returned to help, not only would they not get anything, they might even get into trouble.
Therefore, he decided not to seize the city and rushed directly to Xianyang to threaten the heart of the Qin country.
"General, we'd better be careful. I don't know why, but I feel that something is wrong.”
Han Fei, the ninth son of King Han, who was also sitting on a horse and wearing a purple robe, frowned as he thought of what he had encountered along the way.
"What's wrong with that? The main force of the Qin State is attacking the three countries of Yan, Han, and Zhao.”
General Xiang Yan turned around and said.
"But, General, we have already entered the Qin country's territory for a few days. Even if the Qin country's reaction is slow, the news should have already reached Xianyang.”
"Although that King of Qin Ying Zheng is a young monarch, he was able to imprison the prime minister, reform the net, create the Black Ice Platform, and destroy the Wei Kingdom. Now, he wants to destroy the three kingdoms of Yan, Han, and Zhao as well.”
"Logically speaking, even if the Qin army is empty, tens of thousands of Qin soldiers should still be able to be gathered.”
Han Fei frowned, his eyes full of confusion.
"Report!"
But as soon as Han Fei finished speaking, a scout of the Chu army ran over from a short distance.
"Reporting to Great General, we have discovered a Qin army led by an unknown Qin general. There are 50 to 60 thousand people.”
The scout ran to Xiang Yan and reported.
"Mr Han, do you see that?”
Xiang Yan says smilingly after hearing the scout's report.
"Maybe I'm worrying too much."
Han Fei nodded.
P.S. I want everything, I want everything.
