In the Qin Dynasty, the Tiger of the Empire

Chapter 126 The war is over
"Is it sad?"

Ying Zifei smiled bitterly and said: "Perhaps this is the fate of him and all the successful and famous generals."

"When the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog is cooked; when the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden."

He stared at Wang Xi and said in a leisurely tone, "Old General, is that the truth?"

Wang Xi was silent for a long time. Then he stood up and knelt down, and he calmed down.

"I really want to know, how much of his charm has been acquired from the domineering killing method you learned?"

Ying Zifei handed the Chiyou sword to Wang Xi and said, "I don't have the ability to lead troops, so it's hard to see the momentum of Wu'an Jun's troops."

"Learn from him, change is mine. This sword nourishes my domineering power. General, you can take a look."

Wang Xi took the Chiyou sword, grasped the hilt, and then slowly pulled it out.

The pervasive sharp aura spread in Wang Xi's perception, and when the sword was half drawn, Wang Xi put it back into the sheath.

After exhaling a little, he handed the Chiyou sword to Ying Zifei and said, "It will not tarnish his reputation."

Ying Zifei bowed politely, put away his sword and knelt down. Wang Qi looked at the boy, then touched the imperial edict on the table and said, "So, is this my last battle?"

"No," Ying Zifei shook his head and said seriously, "The king's intention is that the establishment of the Military Affairs Council will start with the old general and General Meng Ao, and it will be finalized from now on."

"The killing of soldiers is incompatible with politics. The struggle between civil and military has existed in the past and will continue to exist in the future."

"The Grand Council is a prison, but it is also a shield for protection."

Wang Xi listened carefully and understood what Ying Zifei meant. Those who are so successful that they threaten the ruler will be suspected by the ruler, and the Military Affairs Council is a way out.

Entering the Grand Council seemed to be a prominent position, but in fact it meant leaving the army, which provided more buffer space between the king and the generals.

If a general left his troops, the King of Qin would have a way to transfer them and integrate the army to reassure all parties.

"Is it safe now?" Wang Xi shook his head and sighed. He didn't think it was safe now.

Ying Zifei also shook his head and said, "The king has already done this. If someone really wants to die, then let him do it."

"Old General, the battlefield is dangerous, and so are the political disputes in the court."

"Fame, wealth and status will only lead to the dead body, whoever wins will win the family and the name."

"A general's battlefield is not only on the battlefield, but also in the court."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xi remained silent and put away the royal edict. He understood what Ying Zifei meant and also understood Wu'an Jun's helplessness.

Perhaps in the future, he will also take this path.

"Send the order, send troops immediately, and attack South Korea."

Wang Qi gave the order and the army immediately took action. Ying Zifei stood up and took his leave.

Looking at Ying Zifei's back, Wang Qi turned his gaze towards the direction of Xianyang City.

"What a Ying Zifei!"

"What a great Qin King Ying Zheng!"

"Hahaha……"

He laughed heartily, all the knots in his heart were swept away, and his aura was released, as if he saw Bai Qi, the Marquis of Wu'an, giving him orders.

It’s not Wu Anjun who is wrong!
It wasn’t King Zhaoxiang of Qin who was wrong!
What is wrong is rights and interests.

From the moment it was born, it was destined that generation after generation would fall on this bloody road until death.

……

The wind blew up the dust and also blew up Ji Wuye's thoughts.

The coalition forces were defeated and he retreated in time, but now he was stopped by Wang Jian's troops.

Wang Jian and Ying Zifei stood side by side and watched Ji Wuye's camp. After watching for a while, Ying Zifei said, "General Wang, we will take away your credit this time."

Hearing this, Wang Jian shook his head and said, "After fighting till now, my army is almost at its limit, and so is Qin."

He didn't mind Ying Zifei's next plan. As a steady general, he knew that what Qin needed next was a period of calm, rather than an aggressive march eastward to force other countries to unite.

"Then leave the Modao Army behind. Please lead the troops to Nanyang and stop Bai Yifei."

Wang Jian already knew Ying Zifei's plan, nodded, and turned to leave.

The army was divided into two, Wang Jian's troops left, and Ji Wuye also discovered the situation. Just as he was about to set out, Mo Ya came to report that Ying Zifei had arrived.

Ji Wuye brought his people here, and seeing Ying Zifei sitting casually, he looked at him with a scrutinizing look.

"General Ji Wuye, I'm here to complete the deal between us."

Ying Zifei threw a jar of wine to Ji Wuye. After Ji Wuye took it, he was still extremely vigilant and said in a cold voice: "Seeing me at this time, you must have some plan for South Korea."

"If South Korea suffers, it will not benefit me."

Ying Zifei motioned Ji Wuye to sit down, and Ji Wuye sat down casually. At this time, Ying Zifei smiled and said: "General, you think highly of me and the strength of Qin at this time."

"Although there are plans, the wounds are hard to destroy."

Hearing this, Ji Wuye felt a little relieved, as he knew that Ying Zifei was telling the truth.

"Tell me, what are you going to do?" Ji Wuye asked.

"I want the general's troops to fight against my Modao Army here for a while. Please also write a letter to Bai Yifei and ask him to slow down."

Ying Zifei's words made Ji Wuye's eyebrows jump, as if he had thought of something. He stood up in surprise and said angrily: "You want to go straight into Xinzheng."

"Yes," Ying Zifei nodded directly and admitted: "Wang Jian's troops have already gone to stop Bai Yifei, and Wang Xi of the Qin army is now marching into Xinzheng."

Ji Wuye's face changed drastically, and he asked in shock and anger: "Are you going to destroy South Korea?"

"No," Ying Zifei shook his head and said seriously, "The Qin army does not have that ability now, and Qin will not destroy South Korea at this time, because once there is such a trend, the scattered coalition forces will definitely gather again."

"General Ji, do you think I and the Qin court would do this?"

After hearing this, Ji Wuye thought about it for a while and had to admit that Ying Zifei was right.

Even if Qin could destroy Han at this time, although the achievement would be great, the consequences would also be serious. Qin at this time could not afford another major war.

Thinking of this, Ji Wuye's face looked much better and he asked, "What is your purpose?"

"Weaken South Korea." Ying Zifei said, looking at Ji Wuye and smiling: "By the way, complete the deal with the general. After all, our cooperation is pretty good."

Ji Wuye just felt extremely uncomfortable. How crazy it was to laugh and talk about weakening South Korea in front of him.

Taking a deep breath, Ji Wuye said with a cold look: "How can I be sure that you won't push your luck?" After taking a sip of wine, Ying Zifei said slowly: "I, the old general of Qin, Wang Xi, need a dignified exit."

"After the troops approached Xinzheng, Han paid compensation and ceded several cities. Wang Zhi withdrew his troops under a pretext. Although Han was hurt, it was not worried."

As he spoke, he looked at Ji Wuye and said, "After the coalition forces were defeated, General Ji Wuye of Han fought hard against the Qin army, but he was unable to reinforce Xinzheng. However, he brought back most of his Han army, so he deserves great credit."

"Bai Yifei fought hard against Wang Jian's army and prevented Wang Jian from joining forces with Wang Xi, which also made a great contribution."

Ji Wuye was silent, with a hint of fear and excitement in his heart.

What is frightening is that Ying Zifei's plan has hit the bottom line. Other countries will not unite just because South Korea is hurt. It will just be a matter of ceding territory and paying compensation. They are all used to it.

Ji Wuye was also moved. He understood that if Ying Zifei's plan was really carried out, Zhang Kaidi in Xinzheng would be the person in charge.

Cede land and pay compensation, whoever gets involved in this will be despised. Even if the Zhang family has a high prestige in the Kingdom of Han, Zhang Kaidi must bear this disaster for the King of Han.

With this flaw, we will have a better chance of winning when targeting Zhang Kaidi in the future.

Ying Zifei did not urge him, but drank quietly. After a long while, Ji Wuye finally spoke, his voice a little hoarse: "I agree."

In his desire for power, Ji Wuye chose to cooperate. Ying Zifei smiled and drank the wine in the jar.

"I heard that the general's night has enveloped South Korea. I look forward to our next cooperation."

Ying Zifei turned and left. Ji Wuye looked at his back and continued to remain silent.

"The weak really can't choose their own destiny."

Mo Ya witnessed this brief meeting, and these words were lingering in his mind.

He looked at Ji Wuye's silence and felt inexplicably sad.

Maybe Ji Wuye got what he wanted, but in Ying Zifei's eyes, what Ji Wuye got was also an alternative form of charity from Ying Zifei.

……

Lu Buwei threatened Chu, Meng Ao threatened Zhao and Wei. Apart from the fact that Yan was far away, Qin was unable to send troops to threaten it. When Wang Qi's army reached the city of Xinzheng in Han, the whole world was shocked.

The defeat of the coalition forces was a foregone conclusion, but such a rout still left many people in a daze.

In Xinzheng, the King of Han was terrified. When he was sure that Ji Wuye's retreating troops were stopped by the Qin army and Xue Yihou was also stopped by the Qin general Wang Jian, he knew that there was no other way but to make peace.

The Prime Minister analyzed the overall situation and said that if they held on to Xinzheng, the Qin army would surely retreat. But how could the King of Han listen to him? He did not dare to gamble on that possibility.

After the court was dismissed, Zhang Kaidi, who had been appointed as the envoy, hunched over a bit.

When his grandson Zhang Liang heard about the King of Han's decision, he said angrily, "Grandfather, the Qin army is exhausted and will retreat in less than a month."

"Now that we are threatened, we dare not destroy South Korea, otherwise the coalition will rise up. How can the king make such a decision?"

After listening to his grandson's words, Zhang Kaidi felt a lot more relieved. At least, his grandson had such knowledge at such a young age, and he would definitely achieve something in the future.

"Zifang, remember, the Qin army must have made some preparations recently."

"Although Qin is doomed, there are people in Han who want to see your grandfather do this."

“And this is our greatest sorrow.”

Zhang Liang was stunned when he heard this, and then fell silent. Zhang Kaidi did not disturb him or continue to explain. These things were what his grandson Zhang Liang had to learn, since he was Zhang Kaidi's grandson.

Just when some people were hoping that Qin would conquer Han and provoke the coalition forces to rise again, Wang Qi withdrew his troops.

The Qin army withdrew from the Korean territory, carrying with them the indemnity that had emptied the Korean treasury and the Korean envoys who were going to Xianyang City to cede land and pay indemnity.

Ji Wuye came back, and Bai Yifei also came to Xinzheng.

A court meeting ended in chaos. After the court was dismissed, everyone looked at the great Korean general with open eyes and sighed silently.

Ji Wuye brought back most of the troops, and this is the credit. The defeat of the coalition alliance cannot be blamed on Ji Wuye. He retained some vitality of the State of Han, and this is the credit for the King of Han.

"South Korea's path lies in all directions."

The King of Han ceded land and paid compensation, and the King of Yan quickly sent envoys to Yan.

The people's hearts were scattered, and Zhao, Wei, and Chu had no choice but to accept defeat. If the stalemate continued, Qin only needed to use its power to change the situation.

No one wants to be the unlucky one, and this is the lament of the six countries.

After the war, the world calmed down. On the Qin side, after rewarding people according to their merits, King Ying Zheng of Qin once again centralized power and then began to recuperate.

For the Qin State, there were too many things to implement.

The kings of the six kingdoms also fell silent. Qin remained motionless. They breathed a sigh of relief and felt at ease.

Pang Nuan originally wanted to vent his anger on the State of Qi, but was stopped by the King of Zhao.

……

At Xiaoshengxianzhuang, after Han Fei finished reading the summary of the coalition war that was sent to him today, he got up and left the house, turning his gaze towards the direction of Korea, watching quietly.

"Are you confused?"

Xunzi walked into the courtyard, knelt down and asked.

Han Fei came back to his senses, bowed respectfully to his teacher, and said: "Teacher, among the six states in Shandong, Zhao is the most determined to resist Qin."

"This time, Qin State took advantage of the situation to force Zhao and Chu to seek profit. Han State is the weakest, but Qin State forced its troops to attack Xinzheng. This result obviously cannot achieve the effect that Qin State wants to establish its power in the world."

"If they want, they can still make either Zhao or Chu pay a heavy price, thus achieving the purpose of deterrence."

Xunzi nodded, and seeing Li Si coming in and bowing to him, he motioned Li Si to come over and sit down.

Li Si bowed to Han Fei again and then knelt down. Han Fei returned the bow and also knelt down.

"Li Si, can you explain your senior brother's doubts?"

Xunzi asked with a smile, and Li Si shook his head and said, "Teacher, I have some guesses, but I don't know whether they are right or wrong."

"Tell me"

Under the gazes of the two, Li Si said: "Excluding all possibilities, I think that the injury to South Korea this time was done intentionally by someone."

As he spoke, he looked at Han Fei and said, "Someone wants to give you a difficult problem. That person knows that after you have learned something, you will definitely return to Korea."

"This problem must be very difficult, so difficult that when Senior Brother solves the problem, he will help the person who planned it to achieve his desired goal."

Han Fei was stunned when he heard this. Xunzi smiled and said, "Li Si's words are also what I think."

Li Si bowed with a normal expression, but the curiosity and inquiry in his eyes subconsciously looked towards Han Fei.

Who could that person be?
