An assassin from the State of Yan tried to assassinate the King of Qin.
This reason was enough for Great Qin to send troops to attack the Yan Country.
Today, the Great Qin Empire sent General Wang Jian to lead 200,000 troops to attack the Yan Country. Xin Sheng is the vanguard general.
As for the Yan Country, after learning that the assassination had failed, they were also shocked.
They sent envoys to seek help from Qi, Chu, and the other countries, while they worked together with Zhao Jia to form an army of 200,000 to resist the Qin army.
At that time, Qin had just destroyed Zhao, and the land of Zhao had already belonged to Qin. However, there were still many remnant forces in its territory that were resisting.
After the Qin army entered the Zhao territory, the local people were extremely uncooperative. There was even frequent harassment by guerrilla troops.
Unfortunately, the one leading the army this time was Great General Wang Jian.
As one of the Four Great Generals of the Warring States Period, Wang Jian's ability was unquestionable, so the progress of the Qin army was very smooth.
Both sides fought at Yi River.
The Qin army won.
……
Xianyang Palace. In the main hall.
Ying Zheng looked at the battle report in his hands with a calm expression.
Below, the officials stood on the left and right, all of them very excited.
Because the war with the Yan Country went very smoothly, the Yan and Dai allied forces blocked the Qin army at Yishui, but they were defeated by the army led by General Wang Jian.
Wang Jian once again showed off the might of Great Qin's cavalry to the world.
Once this war was publicized, the other countries would definitely be trembling in fear.
From the looks of it, unifying the six states was not a dream!
Right now, the Qin army was preparing for the battle and was waiting for further instructions from Xianyang.
Ying Zheng had to make the decision whether to pursue the victory or to take a short rest and advance steadily.
Great Qin was now the most powerful Kingdom in the world, but because of this, they had to be even more careful.
This was because the slightest mistake could cause the entire building to collapse.
Such a thing had happened many times in the past years.
At this moment, General Meng Tian stepped forward, bowed and said,"
"Your Majesty, the defeat of the Yan Country is no longer a cause for fear. I think we should take advantage of the victory to pursue and take down the Yan Country, adding another piece of land to our Great Qin!”
Ying Zheng was slightly moved.
However, he remained calm and waited.
As expected, Right Prime Minister Feng Quji stepped forward and raised a different opinion.
"Your Majesty. Our Great Qin has been using troops for several years and has achieved remarkable results. Now it has swallowed Han and Zhao. However, the hearts of the people in the two places were different and their foundations were unstable.”
"I think we should stop and stabilize the land of Han and Zhao. We should rest for a while and fight again next year!”
Civil officials and generals had completely different ways of thinking and two completely different answers.
All of them made sense and were not wrong.
Therefore, Meng Tian and Feng Quji did not argue with each other.
They knew that the other party was only in his position to plan for the government, and they were both right.
However, one could not have both fish and bear's paw. In this matter, one had to make a choice.
And the only one who decided how the empire should go was the one sitting at the head of the table.
King Ying Zheng of Qin.
At this moment, Ying Zheng was reading the battle report in his hands, pondering over Meng Tian and Feng Quji's words. For a moment, he felt a little troubled.
Thus, he knocked on the table and instructed the attendant beside him,"
"I'm a little hungry, so I asked Qin Jiang to send some food over.”
"Here."
Not long after, Qin Jiang came forward and brought food to Ying Zheng.
He was cautious and did not say a word. He lowered his head and did not look around at the things in the hall.
"Ahem. Now that the Yan Country's army had been defeated at Yi River, General Wang Jian and Xin Sheng had contributed. Yes, there was also Li Xin. The three of them deserve to be rewarded!"
Giving a dry cough, King Ying Zheng glanced at Qin Jiang and said.
Yan Country was defeated? So fast?
It was only right that he lost. The Great Qin's cavalry was invincible. How could the small Yan Country have the ability to resist the Qin?
However, it was a little too early to reward him for his defeat in Yishui. No matter what, he had to wait until Wang Jian took down the capital of the Yan Country.
Moreover, Crown Prince Dan's head hadn't even arrived yet. That would be Li Xin's great contribution. Wasn't Ying Zheng waiting for this achievement to give Li Xin a platform? What's the rush?
Take down the capital of Yan Country?
And the crown prince's head?
Suddenly, Ying Zheng made a decision.
"The Yan Country has just been defeated and is like a stray dog. Now, I order Wang Jian to pursue and attack.”
"If you can take Crown Prince Dan's head, I will reward you handsomely!”
Below, Meng Tian and Feng Quji looked at each other and bowed."
"Here."
But at this moment, Ying Zheng drank a bowl of soup from the table, looked at Qin Jiang with a kind expression, and said,"
"Qin Jiang, you've also contributed. I want to reward you as well."
"The newly built mansion in the east of the city will be yours. Hehe, speaking of which, this was also one of your rewards from that day.”
This time, not only Qin Jiang, but even the officials below were stunned.
"Your Majesty, this matter is inappropriate." One of them immediately stood up and pointed at Qin Jiang." This person is just serving tea and water. How can he get a mansion?" If Your Majesty doesn't give us a reason, how can we be convinced?”
Hiss ~ Which brother was so stubborn?
You're talking to the Ancestral Dragon like this. Are you complaining that there are too many heads on your head?
Qin Jiang couldn't help but glance at the guy who spoke.
He was a clown with a pointy mouth and monkey cheeks.
"Laozi's serving of food and daily life is closely related to the Ancestral Dragon's body. Only by eating well, sleeping well, and having a good body could one live a long life. I've contributed a lot!
Live a long life?
Ying Zheng's heart warmed up. He gave Qin Jiang a deep look, then snorted coldly, pointing at the guy who had just jumped out and rebuked,"
"Qin Jiang, from now on, I will eat and live, and my body will be healthy. Isn't this credit?？You harbored evil intentions. What crime do you deserve?"
"Men, drag him out and behead him!"
Thud.
The legs of that fellow who had "spoken up for justice" went soft, and he directly sat down in the main hall with a face of disbelief.
"Your Majesty, I, I am Chen Pi, the remonstrant.”
"Your Majesty allowed me to remonstrate with you. Everything I said was to remind Your Majesty not to forget to be a prominent monarch at all times.”
Qin Jiang curled his lips in disdain.
If you ask me, the remonstrant should be abolished. It was a thankless task. Some people used a chicken feather as an arrow and were extremely arrogant because they dared to scold the emperor.
If the sage had cursed, then all the children in the world would have been cursed by their parents into saints!
That made sense!
I'm wise, what does it have to do with you, a censor?
Do I need someone to remind me and insult me?
"Men, drag Chen Pi down and behead him!”Ying Zheng waved his hand, showing no room for doubt.
The ministers saw this and did not dare to say anything.
Only Left Prime Minister Li Si looked at Qin Jiang thoughtfully.
Previously, the king could not make a decision. After this child came, he suddenly decided to continue attacking the Yan Country.
Could this child actually influence the king to this extent?
But he didn't say or do anything.
Moreover, for the sake of a eunuch who served in the daily life, he wanted to kill a minister. No matter how he looked at it, it did not seem like a foolish thing that the king would do.
The only explanation was that this person called Qin Jiang had something extraordinary about him!
