The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 364: Joint Attack on Wei (It's so hard to name the leader 555 plus more)

Ying Zheng smiled at Nian Duan and said, "Okay, Nian'er, are you relieved now?"

"You are just too serious. It's just a little kid's play."

Nian Duan did not answer, but threw herself into Ying Zheng's arms and kissed the corner of his mouth: "I will not disturb the king from handling government affairs for now. I will take my leave for now."

Ying Zheng nodded and said, "Go back and have a good rest. The baby is almost full term. Don't be busy anymore. A few things won't hurt in a few days."

Nian Duan smiled and nodded.

After Nian Duan left, Ying Zheng remembered that Duan Mu Rong stayed here. Ying Zheng shook his head. He was probably afraid that Yi Er and Hua Er would quarrel again, so he let Duan Mu Rong watch over her.

When Ying Hua returned to Yunmeng Palace in the evening, Mi Yun naturally knew what had happened today. After checking the sachet, he found that there was indeed nothing wrong with it, so he returned it to Ying Hua and asked him to wear it well.

Come to think of it, given Nian Duan's character, it is impossible for him to do anything stupid in front of the king.

Mi Yun was in a very complicated mood. Even she couldn't help but admire Nian Duan's character.

She also understood why the king loved Nian Duan so much. Although she was not stunningly beautiful and was old, the king still loved her very much and was even obsessed with her.

Such character is truly one in a million.

Nian Duan personally handled both of her births without any reservations. He is truly a kind-hearted doctor with high moral standards who always puts kindness first.

Thinking that Nian Duan was the king's first woman and gave birth to his first child, but had never asked for any status, Mi Yun felt even more complicated.

I told Ying Hua to get along well with Ying Yi in the future and to respect Nian Duan, who is a truly respectable person.

Ying Zheng didn't know about Mi Yun's psychological changes, but he had always known Nian Duan.

It was the elder sister’s character that fascinated him the most; her kindness, benevolence, intelligence, gentleness, and sparkling soul were so intoxicating that he could never stop wanting more.

Nian Duan is his most shining treasure.

She was like the bright moon emitting a faint fluorescence. When he was with her, she could even temporarily dispel his dark soul and make him brighter.

However, this is only temporary. Although light is precious, the world is ultimately shrouded in darkness, and he is the deepest darkness.

The monster of power cannot be saved by light, because that is the monster's voluntary downfall.

All power monsters are the same.

Just like now, King Kaolie of Chu sighed and reluctantly agreed to Ying Zheng's request.

King Kaolie of Chu was ruthless and decided to beat him to death!
Anyway, with Qin attracting pressure from the north, Wei is currently frightened and afraid of Qin like a tiger, so it will inevitably focus its energy on Qin. Chu should take this opportunity to eat up more of Wei!
Qin and Chu raised their armies to attack Wei!
The war has begun again.

Even though the State of Wei was well prepared and King Jingmin of Wei tried his best to defend, he was still completely unable to stop the attack.

After the Chu State took action, the Qin State followed suit, and at the call of Ying Zheng, the Qi State, led by Tian Dan, took advantage of the situation to rob.

The Qin State sent 50,000 troops to attack Pu, Yan, Shouyuan and other places south of the Pu River.

The State of Chu dispatched 150,000 troops and divided them into two groups. One group attacked the southeastern part, including Yu, Huling, Dang, Xiao, and Xiang; the other group attacked the southwest part, including Wuyang, Shangcai, and Zhaoling, which were important to the State of Qin.

The State of Qi sent 50,000 troops to attack the cities of Ren and Hu.

For a time, the State of Wei was attacked from all sides, and was caught in a dilemma and had no help from above or below.

In recent years, the State of Wei has lost a quarter of its land, and has been in constant war and defeat year after year. It can be said that it is exhausted and has no power to fight back against the joint attack of the three countries. How can a patient who is kicked in a circle be better?

This time, the Qin Dynasty completely broke through the connection between Wei and Zhao, and captured the last bit of land and city bordering the two countries.

The land of Daqin was already connected with that of Qi.

After paying a heavy price, the State of Chu finally captured the city that Ying Zheng requested and handed it over to the State of Qin.

The victory achieved by the State of Chu was also great, and it almost captured an entire county.

But the price paid was also high, with more than 40,000 people killed or injured.

King Kaolie of Chu was too greedy this time. He thought that even a broken ship still had three pounds of nails. After all, Wei occupied the most fertile land. When Wei was pushed to its limit, the resistance it erupted into was still very strong.

Moreover, Ying Zheng secretly sent someone to tell King Wei in advance that this time the Qin State would only take the Pu River and Lishan Mountain, which was not much. You don't have to worry about the Qin State, but it's better to guard against the Chu State.

It must have been Chu that took action first, followed by Qin.

The good reputation that he has always cultivated is now of great use. Over the years, Ying Zheng has been trustworthy and will always fulfill his promises once they are made. Even though King Jingmin of Wei did not dare to believe him completely, he still paid more attention to the State of Chu.

As expected, the State of Chu launched a large-scale attack first. King Jingmin of Wei defended it with all his might. Although he was also on guard against the State of Qin, he knew he could not prevent it, so he did not fight hard at all. He gave up the cities that the State of Qin wanted, but only set up strict defenses along the Ji River to prevent the State of Qin from making further advances.

After the Qin Dynasty completed its strategic goals at lightning speed, it indeed stopped moving forward.

While King Jingmin of Wei felt relieved, he also used most of his military forces to deal with the State of Chu. As for the State of Qi, no matter how poor the State of Wei was, it would not be Qi's turn to bully it. It would be difficult for Qi to achieve any major results if it could only defend itself.

Qi is not a big problem. Even if it is robbed, it can be easily taken back. Chu still poses the biggest threat.

This also led to Chu feeling that Wei was too difficult to defeat. It was clearly a siege by three countries, so why was it so difficult to defeat? Shouldn't it be a crushing defeat?
But things have come to this point, there is no turning back, and sending out 150,000 troops is no joke!

The State of Chu finally achieved its strategic goal, and the gains were really huge and very gratifying.

But the loss really made King Kaolie of Chu feel a little suffocated.

The loss of soldiers last year and this year is enough to cause serious damage to the State of Chu.

Fortunately, more than two months of fierce fighting finally ended. Qi State also made some achievements and captured Rencheng. Wei State also endured it temporarily. He had no choice but to endure it.

The world can finally be peaceful for a while.

Changping Jun was still responsible for handing over the city to Daqin. Changping Jun was full of expectations that Qin and Chu would finally reconcile, and hoped that he could return to Daqin.

As a result, the person who came to take charge of the handover with him was Chang Wenjun.

In order to show his friendly relations with the State of Chu, Ying Zheng promoted Chang Wenjun to the position of vice-prime minister, and all his original duties were handed over to Chang Wenjun.

Seeing Chang Wenjun unable to suppress the corners of his mouth, Chang Pingjun felt very disappointed. Well, I never thought that Chang Wenjun is this kind of person!
We are family, how can you treat me like this!
I worked hard and was busy all the time to make a wedding dress for you!

But Changping Jun did not gain nothing. Although Ying Zheng never mentioned it, let alone invited him to Qin, he made contributions to the friendship between the two countries after all. Ying Zheng ordered Changwen Jun to bring a thousand gold coins and a hundred carts of treasures as gifts.

King Kaolie of Chu also realized that it would be easier to deal with Qin if he had such an acquaintance in Qin.

It was considered a consolation that Changping Jun was appointed as Zuo Yin.
