Saint Qin Batu

Chapter 121 Eight Years (Two in One)

"Have you heard? Yingzheng, the Prince of Qin, is already an innate master!"

"A congenital master? This kind of prince and grandson has a famous teacher to teach him and has inexhaustible resources. What's so special about becoming a congenital master?"

"Idiot, have you been living in a dream these two days? Do you know how old the prince is?"

"How old is it? I think it's more than 20."

"What are you in your 20s? Tell you, you're only nine years old!"

"What! Nine years old?"

Such a conversation is just a scene in a remote tavern.And similar dialogues continue to happen in every corner of the Seven Kingdoms.

However, in just one month, among the Seven Kingdoms, anyone who had any information channels knew the name of the genius of Prince Qin Yingzheng.

While Ying Zheng's talent shocked the people of the world, it undoubtedly also brought fear to the princes and ministers of the Eastern Six Kingdoms.Ever since, various countries sent a large wave of envoys to Qin to congratulate.Although it is embarrassing to do so, it is better than angering the future heir of Qin.

However, Ying Zheng, who is already well-known all over the world, is not as everyone imagined. Relying on his own fame, he recruits many customers, but instead stays behind closed doors, thanking no customers.

……

Qi State Linzi
"Uncle, it's basically confirmed now..." Tian Meng cupped his fists and said bitterly.

"Got it." Tian Jie stood with his hands behind his back, without any change on his face.

"Uncle, since we can be sure that the son Zheng of Qin we met that day is the real overlord, what should we do now?"

"Don't worry, no matter how famous he is, he is still just a child now. We still have time, and with Zhao, Han and Wei three kingdoms blocking Qin, we Qi still have a lot of time."

"only!"

"Go, you have to pay more attention to the farm affairs."

"only!"

……

Sinjeong, South Korea
The king of Han has been very grateful for sending an envoy that day, and Ji Wuye who made this suggestion was rewarded by the king of Han.

"General, don't we really need to tell King Han about this?" A man wearing a black mask looked at Ji Wuye gloomyly and asked.

"Hehe, if you tell the king at this time, the crown prince Yingzheng is the real overlord. What do you think the king will do with his temperament?"

"Naturally, he is obedient to the Qin State!"

"That's right, won't this general even have the chance to make suggestions in front of the king that day?" Ji Wuye grinned, revealing a row of snow-white teeth under his rough beard.

"Greetings, General..."

"Go, don't let anyone find out. The old man who opened the ground wants you to watch over him."

"Don't worry, General..."

……

Yan State Jicheng
In order to prepare for the war with Wei State, Yan Dan was sent back to Yan State by King Zhao as a hostage.

"Teacher, is Zheng'er really that powerful?" Yan Dan asked with a twinkle in his eyes as he stared at the black-robed man in front of him.

Six Fingers Heixia looked at Yan Dan and sighed inwardly.From Yan Dan's sincere eyes, Six Fingers Heixia understands that Yan Dan really regards Ying Zheng as his close friend.

However, with his own plan, Yandan will definitely become Yingzheng's opponent in the future.Brothers and friends who used to become enemies in the future, even immortal.Thinking about the future scene, the Black Man with Six Fingers felt a little unbearable.

"Dan'er, if one of you and Gong Zizheng had to die in the future, how would you choose?" Six Fingers Heixia asked kindly with a smile.

Yan Dan blinked, and replied with a smile: "Then Yan Dan will definitely give up the chance of life to Zheng'er."

"Why?"

"Because Zheng'er is Yandan's friend, he stabbed his friend in both sides. Isn't this what the teacher said about chivalry?"

Six Fingers Heixia froze for a moment, then nodded without changing his smile.

……

Time, like a white horse passing through the gap, cold and summer, in a hurry, quietly passed, eight years have passed in a blink of an eye.

In the past eight years, no matter whether it is the Yaodong Six Kingdoms or the Qin Kingdom, there has been a lot of trouble.

Eight years ago, Zhao, Qi and Chu joined forces to attack Wei.In desperation, King Wei sent Lord Xinling to lead the army.Lord Xinling, who was familiar with the situation of the army, retreated to advance, relying on the fortification of Yecheng, with a small number of troops withstood Zhao's [-] troops.With a small force of no more than [-], they first defeated the [-] army of Qi State, which had not fought for a long time.

Then, he returned to Yecheng again, and dragged Zhao Guo's [-] troops in Yecheng with the force of the corner, and they couldn't get close.

However, unlike the suspended situation in the north, the south of Wei State is in danger.The person recommended by Wei Xianggong Sun Yi, Hou Shu defeated the Chu State and lost [-] troops.The state of Chu took advantage of the momentum and approached Daliang, the capital of the state of Wei, and Daliang was in a hurry.

In a fit of rage, the King of Wei dismissed Sun Yi, Prime Minister of Wei, completely.He also sent King Jingtian of Longyang to enter Chu to cede the land for peace.

However, what made Wei Wang angry was that just after Wei State ceded the land, there was a great chaos in Chu State.The son Xiong An questioned that Xiong Han, the son of King Chu, was not a son of the royal family.Tangled with dozens of old aristocrats of the Chu Kingdom, they gathered [-] troops in an attempt to seize the throne.However, Xiang You, the patriarch of the Xiang clan who was driven back in time, was strangled and killed, and the rebellion was wiped out, and the Xiang clan was also reused by the king of Chu.

On the other hand, Qin State, Yingzi Chu did not die of a sudden illness after three years on the throne as written in the history books.After securing his throne, Yingzi Chu immediately appointed the veteran Meng Ao as his commander, and went east to Hangu.

However, it is surprising.The soldiers under Meng Ao's command were not the well-known Lantian warriors of Qin State, but the overlord soldiers used to guard the pass.

Although the soldiers of the Bashang camp were slightly inferior to those of the Lantian camp, they were still elite.Under the leadership of Meng Ao, he is also invincible.

In the second year of King Qin, Meng Ao led an army of [-] to attack South Korea and captured Chenggao, Gong and other places. At the beginning of Qin State, Sanchuan County was established.

In the fourth year of King Qin, Meng Ao led an army of 37 to attack Zhao and captured [-] cities of Taiyuan, Yuci, Xincheng, and Langmeng.

In the seventh year of King Qin, Meng Ao led [-] troops to attack Wei, and his deputy Wang Yan (pronounced the same as the same pronunciation) led [-] troops to attack Shangdang.Meng Ao took Gaodu and Jicheng of the Wei State, and Wang He wiped out all the forces of the Shangdang Zhao State and established Taiyuan County.

In the eighth year of King Qin, Wei Wuji, Lord of Xinling, joined forces with Yan, Zhao, Han, Wei, and Chu to attack Qin.On the south bank of the Yellow River, he defeated Meng Ao, and his deputy Wang Lu died in battle.The Allied Forces of the Five Kingdoms took advantage of the victory to pursue, and the Qin army was defeated and retreated to Hangu, where they could not get out of Suoguan.After this battle, Wei Wuji, Lord of Xinling, became famous.

Inside Qin Prince's Mansion
Ying Zheng put away his heavy sword, and eight years passed in the blink of an eye, and Ying Zheng also grew from a naive child to an eight-foot-tall boy.The saber that used to be as tall as he was now only just reached his waist.

"His Royal Highness..." Behind Ying Zheng, a red-haired eunuch in black bowed to salute Ying Zheng, "The carriage is ready."

"Zhao Gao, has General Meng Ao returned yet?" Ying Zheng asked casually, wiping the sweat from his neck.

That's right, the red-haired eunuch behind Ying Zheng is Zhao Gao, the famous CRRC magistrate in the future.

Zhao Gao was sent by Yingzi Chu after Yingzheng was canonized as the prince.For Zhao Gao, Ying Zheng has always looked down on him.Ying Zheng is confident, as long as he is still alive, the little ambition in Zhao Gao's heart is nothing to worry about.In the last life, didn't I use the force of thunder to wipe out all Zhao Gao's forces in just a few days?

What's more, the current Zhao Gaofei not only does not have the power in the future, even his martial arts are not very high, but it is only in the late day after tomorrow.

In fact, when Zhao Gao first came here, he really had some small thoughts.He was sent by Yingzi Chu, named to take care of Yingzheng, but actually to monitor Yingzheng.In order to prevent Yingzheng from colluding with important officials in the court and posing a threat to Yingzichu's throne.

However, Zhao Gao is also a smart person.Ying Zheng's talent, even when he was still in the deep palace, he had already heard about it.After arriving at the Prince's Mansion, Zhao Gao even witnessed Ying Zheng's cultivation base soaring like a rocket.In just four years, Yingzheng has reached the peak of foundation establishment from the early stage of foundation establishment.

In Zhao Gao's view, at the age of 13, Ying Zheng stepped into the peak of innate talent, and he was simply an unprecedented genius.Moreover, in private, Zhao Gao even found a man in black sneaking into the prince's room many times.Zhao Gao understood that the prince might already have a force that cannot be underestimated in private.

With such a master, how could the selfish Zhao Gao follow Ying Zichu's arrangement?Although Zhao Gao did not confess to Ying Zheng, he never actually reported valuable information to Ying Zichu.

"Return to Your Highness, General Meng Ao has already returned to the country. If I think about it today, I will report to the court." Zhao Gao bowed his head and replied respectfully.

"Prepare some gifts. After the court meeting, the crown prince will pay homage to General Meng."

"Here!"

……

Above the main hall of the Qin Kingdom, the atmosphere was a bit dignified.A month ago, General Meng Ao was defeated and retreated to Hangu Pass, and the allied forces of the five countries totaled more than [-] men, approaching Xianyang.It caused rumors to spread in the court, and people were panicked for a while.It was not until the coalition forces dispersed ten days ago that the situation improved slightly.

Since the new king Yingzi Chu came to the throne, he has been reusing the meaning of Yaodong, among which Meng Ao is the most important.This naturally aroused the dissatisfaction and worry of the Chu and Qin factions. They attacked Meng Ao more than once, but they were stopped by the Prime Minister Lu Buwei.

Yes, ever since Lu Buwei cooperated with the old Qin faction that day, everyone thought that Lu Buwei would become a member of the Qin faction.

But when Ying Zichu decided to conquer the six eastern countries for the first time, the Qin and Chu factions were arguing endlessly over who should be in command, and even when Sima Jun, the head of the old Qin faction, was about to overwhelm Xiong Quan, Lu Buwei recommended Meng Ao.

There was never a famous general in the Chu family, and Lu Buwei's action undoubtedly helped the Chu family a great favor.If I can't get it, you can't get it either.Therefore, Meng Ao, who was famous in the court but not very powerful, took command and set off.

With Meng Ao's victories again and again, his prestige in the court rose like a rocket.And because of Meng Ao's prosperity, those who recommended Meng Ao naturally became the Bole in the hearts of Yaodong people.

Lu Buwei quickly integrated the extremely scattered Yaodong faction, and even promoted the people of the Yaodong faction with the help of the power in his hands.Over the past few years, in the court hall of Qin State, there has been a faint three-legged confrontation.

But now, Meng Ao has lost, and it can even be said that he lost miserably.Of the [-] troops, [-] were killed, more than [-] were captured, and more than [-] were scattered.Less than [-] returned intact, and the deputy commander Wang Lu even died in battle.This battle can be said to be Qin's first defeat in more than [-] years.

Everyone knew that when Meng Ao came back, people from the Qin and Chu factions would tacitly work together to suppress him, so as to lower Xiangguo Lu Buwei's momentum.Faintly, the hall began to smell bloody.

Ying Zichu, who was sitting at the top of the main hall, glanced at Lu Buwei, Sima Jun, and Xiong Quan, and finally said, "Chuan Meng Ao."

"Bring it on to General Meng Ao!"

After a while, Meng Ao in military uniform walked into the court hall.

"Meng Ao, the general of the defeated army, pay homage to the king!" Meng Ao knelt down on one knee and said with shame on his face.

"General Meng." Ying Zichu sighed slightly in his heart, and said calmly.

Ying Zichu really likes Meng Ao, a fierce general who is loyal and good at fighting.It is not that Yingzi Chu has not considered using the Yaodong line to counter the Qin and Chu lines.

It's just that the people in the Yaodong Department are complex and extremely scattered, and it will take a lot of energy to integrate them. Ying Zichu has been hesitating in his heart.

Just when Ying Zichu made up his mind to reuse the Yaodong Department, Lu Buwei took the lead.It can be said that almost all the people of the Yaodong lineage in the court have received the favor of Lu Buwei to some extent.Obviously, it is almost impossible for the Yaodong faction that has already damaged Lu Buwei's brand to become the previous "Royal Party".

In the court hall, Meng Ao didn't get up, but still knelt, "The defeated general is ashamed of his majesty!"

"General, please get up, this battle is not the general's fault." Ying Zichu comforted him with a warm expression.

"Your Majesty!" Under the main hall, Gan Xing, the head of the old Qin family and the Gan family, came out and said with a little anger: "Meng Ao's loss of troops and generals should not be forgiven lightly. Your Majesty's words are not to offend those great Qin warriors who died in battle. So, who would dare to work for Daqin again in the future?"

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

As soon as Gan Xing said this, he immediately attracted the support of many people, including many people from the Chu family.

As the current head of the Yaodong faction, Prime Minister Lu Buwei frowned slightly.The people and forces of the Qin and Chu families launched an attack with great momentum.However, as Xiangguo, one of the three giants in the court, he couldn't say anything before Sima Jun and Xiong Quan spoke, otherwise he would lose his status.

Under Lu Buwei's signal, an old official from the Yaodong faction stood up, "Your Majesty! In my opinion, General Meng has made great contributions to our Great Qin. It would be really unfair to punish General Meng heavily for just one battle."

"That's right! According to military strategists, water is impermanent, and soldiers are impermanent. On the battlefield, how can there be a general who is victorious? If you lose because of this, and bury a general, this is the real loss of my Great Qin." Another The ministers of the Yaodong Department immediately went out to join the class.

Immediately, many people from Yaodong Department also stood up to support Meng Ao.It's just that the background of the Yaodong family is still a little bit worse after all.Under the cooperation of the two factions of Qin and Chu, there are obviously some deficiencies.

While the ministers were chattering, a tall figure stood up, "Father, my son thinks that General Meng should not be severely punished."

"Huh?" The hall was silent, and everyone looked at Ying Zheng.The Crown Prince Yingzheng, who rarely expressed his opinion, took the risk to protect Meng Ao today, what is his intention?

"Prince!" Sima Jun couldn't bear it first, and scolded in a low voice: "The one hundred thousand army has lost almost half of it, and they are still extremely elite pawns, how can they be lightly spared?"

"The enemy that General Meng fought was Lord Xinling of Wei State, and his soldiers were the elite of the five kingdoms, three times more than General Meng. This battle is not a crime of war. If General Meng is severely punished, I am afraid that in the future, the Great Qin Will the general run away without a fight, or surrender without a fight when he encounters such a dangerous situation?" Ying Zheng continued without changing his face.

"I, old Qin, don't say that I'm afraid of death!" Sima Jun's voice couldn't help but grow louder.

"Soldiers have to worry about life and death when they are fighting outside. If General Meng is severely punished now, wouldn't it add a lot of worries to him? How many people can win under the worries of the past and the future?"

"Prince!" Seeing that Ying Zheng still did not let go, Sima Jun suddenly became anxious.

"Father! My son thinks that the light punishment is immediate!" Ying Zheng bowed to Ying Zichu and said firmly.

Sima Jun was about to refute, but was stopped by Bai Lijun behind him.

Bai Lijun pointed his mouth lightly to the left, Sima Jun turned his head and saw Xiong Quan looking at him cheerfully.

"Huh!" Sima Jun waved his sleeves, but he didn't say much.

Seeing that Sima Jun and Xiong Quan didn't respond, Yingzi Chu, who had been thinking about how to save Meng Ao, was happy but also a little uneasy.

Sima Jun's behavior seemed normal to him.The fact that the old Qin clan supported the crown prince was already known by almost everyone in the court.However, why didn't Xiong Quan stand up, was it just to fight against Sima Jun?Also, in order to help Meng Ao, Ying Zheng did not hesitate to quarrel with Sima Jun, what was his intention?
PS: Thank you for your hard work, you have entered one thousand and two! O(∩_∩)O, but the author Jun still wants to ask for a recommendation ticket with the cheek.It is estimated that I will write a few chapters of foreshadowing for the next chapter, and then I will start writing the first battle of Ying Zheng's life.It is estimated that this volume will be written for a long time. After all, there are six countries to be destroyed, and Lu Buwei and other forces must be eradicated.Finally, I have to buy a little foreshadowing for the next volume of King's Landing.A rough estimate may take more than 100 chapters.Tomorrow the author will sort out his ideas and write a more detailed outline, so the update is estimated to be delayed, I hope everyone will forgive me.
