Several days later.
Zhangtai Palace.
"How is it? Has anything happened at the border recently?”
Ying Zheng looked at Li Si and asked.
" Yes, Your Majesty." Li Si cupped his hands." The border is peaceful."”
"I was wondering how an outsider would dare to invade Great Qin; it was all Ying Yun's wild guesses.”
Huhai said disdainfully.
Zhao Gao looked at Ying Zheng and said," Although Young Master Ying Yun is ranked first on the Intelligence Ranking, he is not an immortal after all. He is in Xianyang. How could he know that there are foreign invaders at the border?"”
"Even if there is an invasion, there will be news from the border, so Your Majesty need not worry.”
Ying Zheng frowned, then said in a low voice,""It seems that Zhen was worrying too much."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Feng Quji holding a bamboo slip and walking in quickly.
"Your Majesty, something bad has happened. The Great Yue Clan has sent 100,000 cavalrymen to invade Great Qin.”
"Longxi Defender General Li Xin has sent an urgent message requesting Your Majesty to send reinforcements.”
"What?"
Hearing this, everyone, including Ying Zheng, was shocked.
"Show me the document.”
Hearing this, Feng Quji immediately handed the document to Ying Zheng.
After Ying Zheng received the bamboo slip, he quickly opened it and glanced at it, frowning immediately.
"It's actually true."
Putting down the document in his hand, Ying Zheng's face instantly turned grave.
"Yun Ren is in Xianyang, he can already guess that there will be a war at the border. Is he an immortal?”
Li Si cupped his hands." Your Majesty, Young Master Yingyun isn't a god. It's just that he's very perceptive and has the ability to strategize. He's capable of winning thousands of miles."”
"Also, has Your Majesty forgotten that Young Master Ying Yun has the ability to predict the future?”
Hearing this, Ying Zheng's eyes narrowed.
At this moment, he remembered that when the ranking was announced, it said that Ying Yun was resourceful, could predict the future, and could strategize and win thousands of miles.
At first, he did not believe it.
However, as more and more things happened, Ying Yun's ability was gradually revealed. He finally believed that this ranking was real.
Especially this time, none of them believed that there would be a war.
But now, the Great Yue Clan's 100,000 cavalry had already begun to attack Longxi.
This meant that Ying Yun's prediction was accurate.
"I really regret not listening to him. Such a big matter was actually not investigated.”
"Men, kill all the scouts at the border.”
Seeing Ying Zheng getting angry, Zhao Gao and Huhai hurriedly lowered their heads.
Just now, the two of them had said that Ying Yun was talking nonsense.
Now that the other party's words had come true, if the two of them continued to talk, it would be troublesome if Ying Zheng got angry and punished them for their crimes.
Originally, they were looking for an opportunity to alienate Ying Zheng from Ying Yun.
Who knew that Ying Yun's words would come true every time.
Actually, they were not the only ones panicking at the moment. Li Si was also a little scared.
After all, Ying Yun had already made Ying Zheng cautious.
He didn't warn them and even said that the border was peaceful.
"Prime Minister Li."
Hearing Ying Zheng call him, Li Si's entire body jolted as he hurriedly cupped his hands and said,""Your subject is here."
Ying Zheng stared at him and asked,""Now tell me, what should I do?”
Li Si cupped his hands and said," I didn't think that the Great Yue Clan would dare to invade Great Qin. Since that's the case, we can only send troops to support Li Xin."”
Ying Zheng frowned and said," In the battle of Chengfu years ago, Li Xin was defeated by Xiang Yan and lost two hundred thousand soldiers of our Qin army. Now, one hundred thousand cavalrymen of the Great Yue Clan are attacking us. I'm afraid that he is no match for them."”
" Your Majesty," Li Si cupped his hands and said," Li Xin was defeated in the battle with Cheng Fu back then mainly because Xiang Yan was resourceful and Li Xin was slightly inferior.”
"Now that the Great Yue Clan has invaded Great Qin, there is no second Xiang Yan, so I believe that Li Xin can withstand the Great Yue Clan's attack.”
"Alright, then this one will send a hundred thousand troops to support him. If he loses again, this one will take his head.”
Last time, when Li Xin was defeated, Ying Zheng wanted to kill him.
However, considering that the other party had made contributions, he demoted Li Xin to Longxi to guard.
Ganquan Palace.
Ying Yun and Zhuge Liang were playing chess in the room as usual.
At this moment, a messenger pigeon flew in from outside and landed on the chess table.
"Looks like something has happened again."
Zhuge Liang waved his feather fan and smiled.
Ying Yun grabbed the messenger pigeon and took off the letter from its leg to read.
"The Great Yue Clan has indeed sent out their troops."
Hearing this, Zhuge Liang was not surprised. Instead, he asked,""Then what do you think the outcome of this battle will be?”
After Ying Yun put away the letter, he said," The Great Yue Clan's opposition to Great Qin is like throwing an egg at a rock. However, since they dare to send out their troops, it means that they have something to rely on.”
"It's just that I don't know what they are relying on.”
"Could it be that the Xiongnu allied with them, which gave them the confidence to invade Great Qin?”
Ying Yun paused briefly. If that was the case, it was indeed possible.
After all, the Xiongnu had always been a threat to Great Qin, and with their Flying Cavalry, they dared to go against Great Qin.
"Yun."
At this moment, a voice sounded from outside.
Ying Zheng walked in with Li Si.
Seeing Ying Zheng's arrival, Ying Yun was a little confused. He had just come here a few days ago, so why was he here now?
Although he was puzzled, Ying Yun still hurriedly stood up and bowed.
"Your son greets Imperial Father."
" No wonder you are ranked first on the Intelligence Ranking." Ying Zheng stared at him and said," You were right. Something really happened at the border."”
"The Great Yue Clan sent 100,000 cavalry to invade Longxi. Li Xin sent people to Xianyang to ask for help.”
Ying Yun said," The Great Yue Clan dared to invade Great Qin. It's like throwing an egg at a rock, so Imperial Father doesn't have to worry."”
"You mean, we will win this battle?" asked Ying Zheng, raising his eyebrows.”
Ying Yun said," In terms of strength, our Great Qin is several times stronger than the Great Yue Clan. If we were to face them head-on, the Great Yue Clan would be nothing to worry about.”
"However, your son surmises that since the Great Yue Clan dared to invade Great Qin, they must have something backing them up.”
" Young Master Ying Yun is right," Li Si said." The Great Yue Clan's strength is far inferior to Great Qin's.”
"Now that they dare to invade Great Qin, they definitely have something to rely on.”
Ying Zheng turned to Li Si and asked,""Then Prime Minister Li, tell me, what does the Great Yue Clan rely on?”
"This…"
Li Si was speechless." I don't know about that."”
Ying Zheng gave a cold snort and turned his gaze to Ying Yun.
"Yun, do you know?"
"In my opinion, the Great Yue Clan should be relying on the Xiongnu. It's very likely that they've already joined forces."”
"Xiongnu?"
Ying Zheng frowned, and then a pensive look appeared on his face.
The Xiongnu had always been a hidden threat to Great Qin. He had sent troops to encircle and suppress the Xiongnu many times, but he had never succeeded.
Helpless, they could only build the Great Wall to resist.
If the Xiongnu allied with the Great Yue Clan, they would be a threat to Great Qin.
"Then do you think that Great Qin will be able to win this war?”Ying Zheng asked.
If he were to fight against the Great Yue Clan, he was confident that he would win.
But if the Xiongnu participated, the outcome would be unknown.
"If it's just against the Da Yue Clan, we can definitely win, but if the Xiongnu participate, then it's hard to say."”
"After all, they have the Flying Cavalry, ranked fourth on the Army Rankings.”
Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng's face turned grave.
Then, he looked at Li Si and said," Pass on my orders. Keep a close eye on the Xiongnu people's every move. Once they send out troops, inform me immediately."”
