Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 413 Controversy over the Hengshan Kingdom Court
If Hu Hai breaks through Linjiang, what will happen to our army?

There is a reason for Xiang Yu to ask this question. He knows that any concession, any transaction is just a division of interests.

But at this time of carve-up, a bottom line must be maintained, and this bottom line must never be touched.

And Linjiang is such a bottom line!
Linjiang is too close to Hanzhong County, once it is breached by Hu Hai.This means that Linjiang has truly become the land of Great Qin, and it is absolutely impossible to subsidize the growth of the enemy's strength.

Therefore, this bottom line must not be surpassed!
Linjiang is different from Jiujiang. After all, even if Hu Hai breaks through six counties and defeats King Yingbu of Jiujiang, he can't directly occupy Jiujiang.

What Hu Hai did in Jiujiang and other places, in the final analysis, is only temporarily beneficial to Qin, but undoubtedly more beneficial to Western Chu.

Because of this, Xiang Yu would be lukewarm for a while, just sit and watch Hu Hai mess around.

"will not!"

At this time, Fan Zeng's cloudy eyes showed a trace of solemnity: "Hu Hai is a smart person, he knows where the bottom line is, and he knows even more that the current Great Qin is not the Great Qin of the First Emperor!"

"Based on the old man's observation of this person, he will definitely agree to the alliance, and even give up attacking Linjiang. Your Majesty, don't worry!"

Fan Zeng knew in his heart that Hu Hai, the Second Emperor of Qin, was a hero, a tyrant who rose suddenly, and such a person would never be used by personal hatred and feelings.

There is no family affection in their eyes, nor love for their children, life is very monotonous, and only their own power and country are in their eyes.

Such people, Fan Zeng has only seen two people so far, one is Liaodong King Liu Ji, and the other is Hu Hai.Even in his eyes, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, couldn't do this.

Fan Zeng knew in his heart that Xiang Yu was good at everything, but he was too affectionate with his children.Hu Hai and Liu Ji can't compete with Xiang Yu militarily, but in terms of the political foresight and calmness of these two people, this is Xiang Yu's biggest disadvantage.

Therefore, he believed that Qin Emperor Hu Hai and Liaodong King Liu Ji were the greatest enemies of Western Chu.

"General, the envoys of the Chu Army sent a letter, Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu, wants to make an alliance with His Majesty—" Hearing Lin Feng's words, Wang Ben's expression changed slightly.

At this moment, his heart was full of joy. Wang Ben knew that the Great Qin Empire could not hold on for long.Not only is the emptiness in the pass, but even the defenders of the major passes have been replaced by city guards.

He knew what Hu Hai was thinking. The city guards were only responsible for maintaining law and order, but for war.They are not trained or equipped for a war.

Moreover, the major granaries in Xianyang began to be in a hurry, and the Xianyang court was even more stretched and complained.

Under such circumstances, if the Great Qin Empire continued to fight this war, even without a strong attack from Western Chu, the Great Qin Empire would collapse internally.

Thoughts flickered in his mind, Wang Ben pondered for a moment: "Send a message to His Majesty through the Black Ice Terrace, convey this news to His Majesty, and at the same time warn the three armies, prepare to fight to the death—"

"Yes!" Nodding in agreement, Lin Feng turned and walked out of the hall.

Regarding Wang Ben's decision, Lin Feng didn't have the slightest doubt. He knew that Wang Ben would not directly state his position on this matter.

After all, Qin II Hu Hai is the emperor and the only master of the Great Qin Empire.

And he also knew that such a major event was not something he could question.

Watching Lin Feng leave, Tong Wu Hou Wang Ben was also slightly surprised.After all, no one expected that Hu Hai, the Second Emperor of Qin, would really shake the general trend of the world.

At this moment, he was full of curiosity about Hu Hai!

"Your Majesty, the Qin army has sent a letter of war—" At this moment, when the wind was raging in the world, a voice rang out from the court hall of Hengshan Kingdom.

This sound was like thunder from the ground, causing ripples on the court hall of Hengshan Kingdom.What Qin Emperor Hu Hai did in Jiujiang Kingdom has long been known throughout the world.

Under the circumstances, Hengshan King Wu Rui naturally couldn't sit still, after all, in Hengshan Kingdom, it was basically equivalent to absolute emptiness.

Even if the Qin army had already fought the King of Jiujiang in Jiujiang State, and its strength was consumed, it could not be less than that of Hengshan State.

At this moment, Wu Rui regretted very much in his heart. He shouldn't have listened to Mei Yan's words and sent the main force into Nanyang County, so that he put himself in an embarrassing situation.

"Father, now the [-]-household Hou Meiyan has rebelled and accepted the enfeoffment of Qin II and became the king of Huainan, while Yingbu, the king of Jiujiang, has become a bereaved dog."

There was seriousness in Wu Chen's eyes. He knew that the current Hengshan Kingdom was in jeopardy. Not only was the pro-Emperor Hu Hai as a threat, but also the Jiujiang King Yingbu was watching.

If Mei Yun occupied Jiujiang County, it would not be impossible for Yingbo to jump over the wall in a hurry and order the army to enter Hengshan.

"The current Hengshan Kingdom is in danger of being overthrown. My son thought that he should immediately mobilize the army from Nanyang County and return to Hengshan, so as to make peace with Huainan Wang Meiyan at the same time, and help each other."

"We are negotiating with the Qin army. Only in this way can the Hengshan Kingdom have a chance to continue for a long time!"

Among the courtiers of Hengshan Kingdom, Prince Wu Chen was undoubtedly a well-informed figure.He knew in his heart that even though Jiujiang Wang Yingbu and Wu Rui were Weng's son-in-law, all of these were unreliable under the benefit of others.

Instead of always guarding against being bitten by Yingbo, it is better to abandon Yingbo directly and fulfill Huainan Wang Meizhen.After all, Mei Yan ran away from Hengshan Kingdom, and she would never easily turn against Hengshan Kingdom under moral principles.

As long as it is negotiating with Qin II, let the road be opened for the Qin army to pass, and take this opportunity to mobilize the army from Nanyang County to Hengshan.

In this way, the danger of Hengshan's overthrow will be resolved immediately.

"Although the prince's words are good, but the Jiujiang Wang Yingbu and Wang Shang are Weng's son-in-law. Now the Jiujiang king is in great trouble. If he doesn't save him, he will lose his morality and make the world laugh at him."

Li Wei, Prime Minister of Hengshan Kingdom, bowed deeply to Hengshan King Wu Rui, without looking at Wu Chen, and said: "What's more, the Great Qin Empire and Hengshan Kingdom are mortal enemies, and they will never die. If the Qin army is allowed to leave, once Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, is dissatisfied .At that time, Hengshan will be in great trouble."

"One hundred thousand Hou Meiyan betrayed the king, and the crime cannot be punished. The old minister thought that it was absolutely impossible to make peace with Meiyan!"

Prince Wu Chen and Prime Minister Li Wei disagreed, so that the court fell silent and no one spoke for a while.

They all knew that at this time it was obvious that the prince and the prime minister were at odds, and if they expressed their position at this time, they would definitely offend another person.

Moreover, these two people are not simple people, one is the person in power at the moment, and the other is the heir of Hengshan Kingdom.

It is not an easy matter to choose anyone!
