On behalf of the land,
The new Prince Zhao's mansion,
Zhao Dai Wang Jia stood in front of the map with a solemn expression.
Although Zhao Jia, the former Crown Prince, was finally crowned as the new King after Handan was breached, the heavy pressure of the Qin army made the new King unhappy.
Especially after the Yan Country was suddenly destroyed, without the cover of the Yan army, the flank of the Zhao army, which was already weak, was completely exposed in front of the Qin army.
If it was not for the need to take over Yan Changcheng to guard against the Xiongnu and other foreign races, Meng Tian's army would have already arrived at Daidi.
When he thought about how he had to face the brave and fearless Qin army that was several times his number, Zhao Jia couldn't help but shiver even though the sun was shining brightly.
"Did the envoy sent to the Qi Kingdom gain anything in Linzi?”
Zhao Jia asked after letting out a long sigh.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the envoy has indeed entered Qi Capital and was received by Qi Wangjian!”
"It's just that most of the Qi Country's courtiers consider themselves as allies of the Qin Country, and they don't think much of our words.”
The only remaining Great General of the State of Zhao, Yan Ju, laughed bitterly.
"Foolish!"
"The reason why the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, let Qi Kingdom off temporarily is that he has yet to digest the land of Han, Zhao, and Yan, and there is still Wei, Chu, and our army holding him back!”
"Once all of us are destroyed, ninety percent of the Central Plains will belong to the Violent Qin.”
Zhao Jia said angrily.
"Your Majesty, the logic is very simple, but the other party is stubborn and doesn't believe it. We are really powerless!”
"Moreover, the king of the Qi army knows that it has long been corrupted. Even if he agrees to send troops to support, it won't be of much use.”
Yan Ju said helplessly," It's General Xiang Yan of the Chu Country who sent people to support a batch of money, grain, and armaments. However, we need to first establish a relationship with the Wei Kingdom's dignitaries before we can send them over. Therefore, we still need time!"”
Zhao Jia sighed again.
Three kingdoms had already been destroyed by the Violent Qin, and the remaining vassal kingdoms still did not learn their lesson. They were either numbing themselves or adding fuel to the fire. What kind of pig teammates were these?
Xiang Yan did have some foresight, but unfortunately, he was only the Great General of Chu and not the King of Chu. Moreover, he was often ostracized by the other three major clans of Chu.
Could it be that the Barbarian Bao Qin, who was besieged by the six dynasties and almost defeated at Hangu Pass a few decades ago, was really going to dominate the world and no one could stop it?
"Great King, good news, good news!”
Just as Zhao Jia and Yan Ju were frowning and looking for a solution, Zhao Jia's personal eunuch suddenly rushed into the hall with a letter in his hand and said excitedly.
"What good news?"
Zhao Jia and Yan Ju turned around at the same time.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, after that Qin Prince Ying Che learned that the nobles of Yan had taken over all the treasuries of the various cities, he was furious and lost his composure. He ordered the Qin army to capture all the nobles of Ji City and throw them into prison.
All the wealthy families in Yan Land were indignant. The entire Yan Land was filled with complaints and anger.
This was a handwritten letter from Yan Yi, the former Great General of Yan Country. He said that he had already contacted the largest aristocratic families in Yan Land and gathered tens of thousands of remnants of the Yan army. They were willing to work together from the inside and outside to offer Ji City and Yan Land to the king!”
The eunuch was so excited that he gasped for breath.
"Is there really such a thing?"
Zhao Jia was overjoyed. She quickly snatched the silk book from the eunuch and read it carefully.
"That's right, this is indeed Yan Yi's handwriting. Also, this Great General Yan's seal cannot be faked.”
Yan Ju also came over excitedly and said with certainty.
"That's good!"
"Pass on my order. All the Zhao soldiers of the Dai Land should immediately prepare a week's worth of rations. At midnight, follow me out of the city and head straight for Ji City!”
Zhao Jia muttered to himself for a moment before speaking loudly.
"King, isn't it too risky?”
"If we go, the place will be completely empty!”
Yan Ju hesitated.
"Daidi only has a total of 30,000 troops. If they still hold back, even with Yan Yi's support, they might not be able to break through Ji City!”
"Don't forget, although the Qin army only has three thousand guards in Ji City, they are all elites who have been through hundreds of battles.”
"And that Young Master Bao Qin, Ying Che, although he is not familiar with government affairs and caused this chaos, he was able to break through the Yan Palace with less than a thousand cavalry.”
"Anyway, as long as we take down Ji City, we will be able to obtain a large amount of money and population.”
"If we don't take down Ji City to replenish our strength, we will die sooner or later!”
Zhao Jia said decisively.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"This general will go and arrange the expedition!”
Yan Ju thought about it and felt that this was indeed the last chance for Zhao. If they didn't act now, when the Qin army settled the internal strife in Yan, the 100,000 strong army would come together. Even if the 30,000 generation army was here, they wouldn't be able to hold on.
If the Dai Kingdom wanted to survive for a long time, they could only take Ji City by surprise attack, move a huge amount of population and wealth to Dai Land, and rely on the favorable terrain to build checkpoints to strengthen their defenses. Only then would they have a chance.
"Remember, tell the soldiers that as long as they take down Ji City, this king will allow them to disband the army for seven days!”
Zhao Jia gritted his teeth as he thought of his subordinates 'terrible performance against the Qin army.
"Yes, sir!"
Yan Ju's gaze turned cold, but he did not object.
This was indeed the only way to challenge the terrifyingly powerful Qin army.
As for the consequences, he would just push it to that Qin Young Master.
In any case, he had already thrown enough dirty water at Violent Qin. He did not care about a few more!
......
Ji City, Fei Xue Pavilion.
"This luring the snake out of its hole has really lured out all kinds of demons and monsters.”
"But this is also good. Clean it up in one go so that we won't be entangled in the future!”
"The great man said that we have to clean the house before we can welcome guests!”
Ying Che looked through the reports that the Black Ice Platform had sent over, and he had a new impression of Great Qin's military intelligence.
As expected of someone who could even kill Li Mu. Dunruo, this seemingly weak old fellow, was indeed quite extraordinary in his ability to spy on intelligence.
When Wang Jia's army was still several hundred li away from Ji City, the intelligence report from the Black Ice Platform had already reached his hands.
No wonder Great Qin was able to destroy the six countries in just ten years and create the first unified empire in history.
Ying Zheng's subordinates were really full of talents!
If it weren't for that idiot Huhai and Zhao Gao, who had wreaked havoc and wiped out all the virtuous officials and generals left behind by Ying Zheng, how could the once prosperous Great Qin collapse suddenly and benefit that hooligan Liu Bang?
The only regret was that due to many reasons, the Black Ice Platform's main infiltration range was in the various countries of the Central Plains. It was still very lacking in the Bai Yue, the steppe Xiongnu, and other tribes.
It seemed that he could only think of a way to build an intelligence network in the foreign tribes.
Ying Che thought to himself.
At this moment.
Ding!" Congratulations to the host for successfully activating a new check-in mission."
