Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 256 The Arrival of the Secret Envoy of Chu State (Part [-])

Above the main hall of Xianyang Palace, the quiet fallen leaves can be heard.The emperors and ministers of the Great Qin Empire have some understanding of the current situation, but at the same time they are a little confused.

Because recently, on the land of the Central Plains, there have been many swords and soldiers, and the killing has continued.Between countries, conflicts broke out, and a huge purge was brewing.

In this purge, none of the countries above the Central Plains can be an exception.

……

Although the three counties in Liaodong were far away from the Great Qin Empire, Hu Hai never relaxed his surveillance on the three counties in Liaodong.Among the merchants in the three counties of Liaodong, there are the most Qin people, and among the employees of each Qin merchant, there are secret scouts sent by Hu Hai.

In addition to dispatching merchants, eyeliners, scouts, and spies, as long as they can be dispatched, Qin II will not miss a single one.

The news they sent back from various channels was very timely, and the changes in the three counties of Liaodong were naturally very clear to the court of the Great Qin Empire.

Especially Hu Hai, the Emperor of Qin, knew that Liu Ji, King of Liaodong, was once the final victor.Now Xiao He, Han Xin and others have all gathered.

His fear of Liu Ji has never been lower than Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.

Hu Hai had his own account of the threat from the three counties of Liaodong: First, Liu Ji, the king of Liaodong, was a heroic talent. Although he was still far away from threatening the Great Qin Empire, there was only one land in the Central Plains, and Qin and Liaodong would meet sooner or later.

Secondly, Xiao He has a great talent as a prime minister, and Han Signal is called a soldier, and he is invincible in every battle.Together with Zhang Liang, who has not yet appeared, and strategizing, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away.

Coupled with Liu Ji's kingly talents, a strong cohesion will surely be formed, so that the three counties of Liaodong will rise like flying above the land of the Central Plains.

Hu Hai knew that everything has its pros and cons, and the strength of the three counties in Liaodong was first of all detrimental to the four kingdoms of Yan, Zhao, Chu and Qi.If the four countries want to contain the Liaodong Kingdom, they will inevitably ease the pressure on the Great Qin Empire, which will greatly benefit the recasting of the Great Qin Empire.

Third, the strength of the three counties in Liaodong will become the main force in the struggle for the world.In this way, the three counties of Liaodong and Western Chu will inevitably be in the same situation.

Yanzhao, Qichu and the three counties of Liaodong are enemies. This will definitely make the situation of the Great Qin Empire better.In this pattern, the Great Qin Empire can have both sides.

Therefore, Hu Hai was afraid of Liu Ji, but he let it go without interfering.Because Qin Emperor Hu Hai knew that the Great Qin Empire would only benefit from the growth of the three counties in Liaodong.

This is exactly the case at present, with the three counties of Liaodong joining Han Xin, earth-shaking changes will take place.Because of the existence of Han Xin, the Liaodong army will completely embark on a road of regularization.

The three counties in eastern Liaodong are powerful, and the ones who feel the greatest threat are Yan Guo and Zhao Guo.

The Great Qin Empire is the enemy of the whole world, and with the three counties of Liaodong as the leader, it attracts the attention of the world.Daqin was able to fight his way through the layers of blockades.

……

Wei Liao and the others knew that Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, would attack Wang Tianrong. This meant that the most powerful state of Chu was about to declare war on all the countries in the world.

For a moment, the quiet fallen leaves could be heard on the entire Xianyang Palace Hall, and the officials were speechless for a long time.

……

After being silent for a long time, Hu Hai lightly tapped on the emperor's case with his fingers: "The world is in chaos, and it started from then on. The Great Qin Empire, as the protagonist, cannot be avoided."

"Prime Minister, you and Zhi Li Neishi will be responsible for the collection of food and grass in various places. Make sure that the people will not starve to death and the army will have surplus food!"

"Yes!" Nodding in agreement, the expressions of Ziying and Yingling changed.

They are father and son, and they are both the three princes and nine ministers of the Great Qin Empire.In addition to being unavailable in the current Great Qin Empire, this also has the kindness of Hu Hai.

It's just that this kindness is too great for them to repay.

……

The courtiers of the Great Qin Empire have all left, and each has busy affairs. In the huge Xianyang Palace, only Hu Hai and Han Tan are left.

For a moment, the atmosphere froze.Just when Hu Hai was about to speak, there was a sound of horseshoes outside the palace, and Kui Ye, the secret envoy stationed in Chu State, returned home and entered the palace urgently.

"Your Majesty, the secret envoy of the State of Chu seeks an audience—" the old servant Han Tan looked respectful.

Glancing at Han Tan, Hu Hai waved his hand and said, "Bi—"

……

"Your Majesty has an order: Pass—" Han Tan stood in the porch and announced loudly.

"Chen Lu Wen pays homage to His Majesty, Your Majesty Wannian—" Lu Wen hurried into the palace and bowed deeply to Hu Hai.

Hu Hai glanced at Lu Wen, and waved his hand casually: "Ai Qing is seated, Han Tan is going to eat rice wine—"

"Yes--"

……

Secret envoys came all the way west, trekking across mountains and rivers.Hu Hai knew that these people were the hardest ones, and the Great Qin Empire had the same food and drink, and there was no shortage of meals.

"Gudong, gudong, gudong..."

After drinking the rice wine in the big bowl in three consecutive gulps, Lu Wen gulped down a tripod of soup cakes.Just now he bowed deeply to Hu Hai, and said: "Peng Yue, General of Qi State, defeated Ji Yin and defeated Xiao Gongjiao..."

This news hit Hu Hai's heart, because the excitement generated by some long discussions disappeared completely, and suddenly there was a trace of surprise.

Qi Guo's move was unimaginable. Suddenly, Hu Hai couldn't think of what the Qi Wang Tianrong was planning?

Now Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, led his army northward, and it was the time of life and death for Qi.At this time, Qi Wang Tianrong did not gather all his troops to fight against Xiang Yu.

But at this time, let Peng Yue attack Jiyin.

This made Hu Hai puzzled, because Qi's national strength simply could not destroy Western Chu in one battle.

After a pause, Hu Hai asked, "Qi and Chu, how do you react to this matter?"

Hearing this, Mi used his sleeves to wipe off the grease from the corner of his mouth, and said: "There was no response, from the beginning to the end of the war. Neither Xichu nor Qi State made a sound, nor did they send reinforcements!"

Hu Hai and Han Tan looked at each other with puzzled eyes.Even if he is familiar with the direction of most things, he can't do everything in detail.

In Hu Hai's memory, he didn't have a big impression of Peng Yue, and most of them were tied to Liu Jikong.He only remembered that Peng Yue was the first to invent guerrilla warfare, and he was the one who could still become a vassal king after his rise.

After contemplating for a long time, Hu Hai ordered decisively: "Show Hangu Pass, the general guarding Wuguan, guard strictly, keep the appearance as usual, and report the military situation at any time!"

"Yes—" the old servant Han Tan strode away.

Then Hu Hai stared at Lu Wen and said, "Immediately return to Pengcheng from Xiaodao, and report Chu State's reaction to this battle in time!"

"Yes!" Nodding in agreement, Lu Wen strode away.

……

At this moment, Hu Hai suddenly felt heavy pressure.He knew in his heart that the Great Qin Empire was recovering rapidly, and as long as the Great Qin Empire did not give up on the Central Plains, a decisive battle between the Great Qin Empire and the countries in the Central Plains would happen sooner or later.

At this moment, Hu Hai hopes that this kind of decisive battle will happen as late as possible.In this way, the Great Qin Empire can recover more.

After the Qin army's elite soldiers left Hangu Pass, the chances of winning were better.
