The ruler of the past was like a stray dog today, without any dignity.
Ying Zheng sat upright on his throne, expressionlessly watching him swallow a few large steamed buns. He had eaten so fast that his head was stuck in his throat.
The King of Wei clutched his throat, and Ying Zheng turned his head to signal for him to do so. The eunuchs hurriedly brought the water over, and the King of Wei drank it, feeling a little better.
"Eat slowly. There's no hurry."
The King of Wei stopped chewing on his steamed bun and stared at the ground in front of him, his hands involuntarily tightening.
Finally, he put down the steamed bun and said in a low voice,""King Qin, I have lost to you. Daliang City had fallen, and the Kingdom of Wei had fallen into the hands of the King of Qin. I have no other request, but that the King of Qin can treat the people of Wei well. In this way, I can die in peace.”
The King of Wei spoke in a tragic manner, like a hero in his twilight years, making one's heart ache.
Some of the surrounding people were moved when they heard this. The King of Wei was still so considerate of his people before he died? From the looks of it, he was a king who loved his people like his own children.
But Ying Zheng stood up with an indifferent expression and said,""What a good way to retreat in order to advance. If you really think about the people in the country, you should have already known that Daliang would fall when it was flooded, and Wei would eventually fall into my hands. At that time, you should come out and surrender. But you didn't. Instead, you waited for three months. When countless people starved to death and the city's reserves were used up, you walked out. King of Wei, how can I believe your words? Most of the food in the city's granary went to the palace. You've been enjoying it for three months, but when have you ever seen the people in the city starving to the point of eating their own kind?”
The King of Wei trembled. As Ying Zheng continued, his body gradually became hunched, and sweat rolled down his forehead.
"King Qin, I, I am not…"
"Enough, zhen doesn't want to see a shameless person like you. You don't have to worry about the livelihood of the people of Wei. Now, this world belonged to Great Qin, and the people here were Great Qin's people. I will naturally take good care of you. Go to the underworld to find your ancestors and repent!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Ben dragged the King of Wei away. Not long after, a scream was heard. The King of Wei had already been executed on the spot and his head was separated from his body.
"Wang Ben, rescue the civilians in Daliang City and make sure they are properly settled. Stay here and guard this place to prevent other countries from taking advantage of the situation. Return to court!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Wang Ben accepted the order and sent the boats into the river to rescue the civilians.
After that, Wang Ben led his army and stationed them around Daliang City to guard against any possible attack from Chu. Ying Zheng, on the other hand, led a portion of his troops and set off on the road back to Xianyang.
……
About half a month later, Ying Zheng's team returned to Xianyang City.
And this half a month was a torturous time for Yan Qi and the other countries. The Yan Qi alliance had already formed, and they were working together to defend against Wang Jian and Xin Sheng's attacks.
Following Ying Zheng's orders, Wang Jian and Wang Jian stayed in the territory of the Yan Kingdom and trained their army day and night, making the Yan Kingdom feel as if they were sitting on pins and needles. The King of Yan sent spies to report day and night.
When the news of the Wei Kingdom being annexed reached the Yan Kingdom, the King of Yan was stunned on the spot as if he had been struck by lightning.
After a long time, he sighed and looked at the sky.""Heavens, why didn't you take over the State of Qin?! The King of Qin was ambitious and set off endless wars, causing misery and suffering. Why did he still let him live? In March, they broke through Daliang and annexed Wei. Now that the Qin country had vast territory and strong troops, how could they resist?”
The King of Yan was filled with grief and indignation. He thought that the Wei Kingdom would be able to stop the Qin army's attack with the help of the endless water network in Daliang and delay the Qin army within the territory of the Wei Kingdom. However, he did not expect that the once indestructible Daliang Kingdom would be conquered by the Qin army in three months, and it did not cost a single soldier.
It was the Endless Water Net that had destroyed Daliang.
The city wall could not withstand the long soak and eventually collapsed. All the food reserves were exhausted. If the King of Wei did not surrender, he would eventually be destroyed by the Qin country.
Now that the Wei Country was in the hands of the Qin Country, didn't that mean that the Qin Country could transfer their army at any time to attack the Yan Country?
Qi Country had 200,000 troops in Yan Country. Including the troops he sent out, there was a total of 500,000 troops.
How could a 500,000 strong army defend against a million strong army from the Qin Country?
He was worried and had no other choice.
Elsewhere, King Qi was equally vexed. He had never thought that in less than a year, the State of Qin would destroy the Three Kingdoms. Earlier, when Qin sent people to win over Qi, he had already noticed that there was a problem.
However, he could not find the problem, so he had a good relationship with the Qin country.
But now that he saw the Qin country take down one country after another, he panicked.
"Alliance with the Yan Country, but how can 500,000 troops guarantee the safety of the Yan Country? How could he guarantee the safety of Qi State? Sigh, how should the Prime Minister face the Qin country now? Why don't you learn from Qin and recruit soldiers from all over the world?”
"Your Majesty, the Qi Kingdom has a population of over five million. How can we gather a million soldiers? It was better to deal with Qin country first and then think of another way. The State of Qin's attack speed was seriously too fast.”
"First? Good, good, good. I'll leave this matter to the prime minister.”
King Qi rejoiced. Finally, someone had stepped forward to come up with a plan.
Prime Minister Hou Sheng had a conflicted expression. Was this the meaning of pushing the sh * t basin onto his head? However, it was just right!
