Zhang Tai Palace.
On this day, Prime Minister Wang Wan, Imperial Censor Li Si, and Court Officer Feng Quji came together to the palace to meet Ying Zheng.
"Your Majesty, this subject requests Your Majesty to send troops to attack the Qi and Chu countries again.”
Wang Wan asked Ying Zheng for an edict.
"That's right, Your Majesty. Taking advantage of the fact that the Qi and Chu two countries 'five hundred thousand troops were surrounded and killed by our Qin country, and our national strength was greatly damaged, we should take advantage of the situation and destroy the two countries.”
Li Si also advised Ying Zheng.
"Your Majesty has already destroyed four of the six countries in the world. If you destroy the Qi and Chu countries, you will be able to inherit the Zhou system and become the unique and noble Son of Heaven.”
Feng Quji supported sending troops and echoed Wang Wan and Li Si.
"It seems that the three of you have discussed it before entering the palace to see zhen.”
Seeing that one of the three of them was venting his anger, a hint of a smile flashed across Ying Zheng's eyes.
"Your Majesty, this is not only the intention of the three of us, but also the intention of the civil and military officials.”
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Wang Wan explained.
"Your Majesty is already standing at the crossroads of unifying the world. As long as Your Majesty takes this opportunity to destroy the Qi and Chu countries, after the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Xia land that has been in chaos for hundreds of years will be unified again.”
"Your Majesty will become an unprecedented and famous emperor.”
Wang Wan said excitedly.
His beard trembled as he spoke.
"Alright, since you said you want to send troops, then send troops.”
Ying Zheng smiled when he saw that his subordinates were all boasting.
In fact.
The Monarchs of Qi and Chu, along with the Monarchs of Yan, Han, and Zhao, who had already been destroyed, plotted to assassinate him.
He was a petty person and would definitely not let it go like this.
Originally, he had wanted to send troops.
However, after taking down Yan, Han, and Zhao, there were many things that needed to be dealt with. In addition, the old general of the State of Qin, Wang He, suddenly died of illness, which delayed this matter until now.
"Your Majesty is wise."
Seeing that they had finally convinced the Emperor, Wang Wan, Li Si, and Feng Quji couldn't help but raise their eyebrows in joy.
"Then, who do you think should lead the army this time?”
Li Si asked.
"Send Wang Jian to lead 200,000 troops to attack the Chu Country, and send Meng Wu to lead 15 troops to attack the Qi Country.”
Ying Zheng told them the candidates that he had thought of in advance.
There was no need to say anything about Wang Jian.
A famous general of Qin State, one of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period.
And Meng Wu.
This person was Meng Ao's son.
He was the father of Meng Tian and Meng Yi, the future Great Generals of the State of Qin.
Even though he didn't have any famous battle achievements, in the original history, he had defeated the Chu Country twice, killed the Chu General Xiang Yan, and captured the Chu King. He was one of the leading generals.
Although he wasn't a famous general, he could be considered a good general.
Using him to attack the Qi Kingdom, which had no resistance at all, could be considered to complement each other.
As for the young general Li Xin.
There was no hurry.
The young man had just made a contribution and received a reward, so his morale must have risen.
She might as well take this opportunity to temper him.
In any case, there were strong enemies surrounding the Qin country. In the future, when he led the army, there would be many opportunities to fight.
"Your Majesty is wise."
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Wang Wan and the other two said.
They also knew that Ying Zheng's decision could not be changed.
And the two people that His Majesty had chosen this time.
One was Wang Jian.
The previous two times he led the army had already proved his talent.
The second is Meng Wu.
He was the son of the old general Meng Ao and had been in the army for many years.
It was time to try leading the army.
The matter was settled.
Following which, Meng Wu and Wang Jian led the 350,000 Qin troops and headed straight for the Qi and Chu countries.
After learning that the Qin Country sent troops, even though Wang Jian and Meng Wu weren't famous generals.
However, the Qi and Chu countries still put in 120,000 points of effort to deal with it.
After all, the Qi and Chu countries had just suffered a great defeat and their national strength had been greatly reduced. With the current military strength of the Qin country, even if they sent an idiot to lead an army of more than a hundred thousand, it was not something they could deal with.
Moreover, the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, was not a fool.
They would not send an idiot general to lead the army.
This was because the Qi and Chu countries did not have enough military power and they did not have any brave generals.
Hence, after Wang Jian and Meng Wu entered the Qi and Chu countries, they were simply invincible.
Wang Jian led the army and used about a month's time to directly attack from the old capital of Chu, Danyang, to the current capital, Shouchun.
As for Meng Wu, he brought 150,000 troops and entered Qi Country through the original Wei Country.
Along the way, the Qi army was on tenterhooks.
Qi State was located in Qi Lu, the headquarters of the Confucians. It was also the hometown of Confucius, one of the Seven Sons of the Pre-Qin Dynasty.
There were many scholars here, and everyone was proud of reading.
It also caused the Qi people to develop a temperament of liking peace and not liking war.
The current Prime Minister of Qi State, Hou Sheng, was greedy and afraid of death.
Seeing how powerful the Qin army was.
He persuaded King Qi to surrender.
King Jian of Qi saw Meng Wu leading 150,000 Qin troops and coming menacingly.
They hurriedly gathered 200,000 Qi troops in various parts of Qi State to block the Qin State army.
It was a pity that the Qi State army, which had been at ease for too long, was far from the Qin State army.
Even though the Qi army had more than 50,000 soldiers, they were still defeated.
This battle had caused the Qi Kingdom to suffer a huge defeat, with only 200,000 Qi troops left.
160,000 Qi soldiers were captured.
Only 30,000 to 40,000 Qi soldiers were injured.
With such a weak fighting will, the Qi Country could be considered the shame of the seven countries.
When Meng Wu's army arrived at Linzi City, the capital of Qi Country.
Qi Wangjian…
After being convinced by Prime Minister Hou Sheng, he led all the officials and generals out of the city to surrender to Meng Wu.
Therefore, Meng Wu did not even use a month to attack the capital of Qi State.
This could be said to be the fastest war in history to destroy a country.
P.S. I want everything, I want everything.
