Saint Qin Batu

Chapter 289 Defeat
The howling north wind brought the first heavy snow in Qin.The original heavy Xianyang City has also become a world covered in silver.

After October, Qin Chuan in Sanbaili gained even more harvest than before.At this time, only two months have passed, and the joy of harvest has not yet passed.

And this auspicious white snow makes everyone yearn for the future life even more.

The six Yaodong kingdoms that were once powerful have disappeared one by one in the hands of the current king.And the huge dividends brought by the war made the old Qin people who were not afraid of death even more jealous.

However, in this beautiful world after the snow, a piece of news of Yan's defeat was transmitted back to Xianyang City.

On the huge court hall, inside the hollowed-out stone pillars, warm coals made this supposedly cold hall feel like a spring day.

The officials in thick fur coats had a fine layer of sweat on their heads.In the entire hall, there was a heavy sense of oppression.

And the source of this sense of oppression is naturally Ying Zheng who is sitting on top of the hall at this time.

"Snapped!"

The bamboo slips filled with military reports drew a beautiful parabola in the hall and landed in front of the clear water pool.

"The 20 elite were defeated by the 2 weak Yan army. [-] people were lost, who can tell the widow, who will bear such a record!"

Ying Zheng half-closed his eyes, and his stern face was covered with a thick layer of frost.

As a veteran of the court and a close friend of the commander Wang Jian, Meng Ao glanced lightly at the bamboo slips on the ground, cupped his hands, and saluted and said: "Your Majesty, the defeat of our army this time is really due to the Mohist organization. Wang Jian When the general was halfway across, he was attacked by Xuanwu, an underwater mechanism beast.

After landing, he was attacked by the main force of the Yan army, and the white tiger, an organ beast, assisted him.This defeat is not a crime of war. "

"That being said, General Wang Jian also has a lot of responsibility..." As soon as Meng Ao's words fell, Xiong Qi also stood up and confronted him tit for tat.

"Wang Jian has an army of 20 in his hands. Facing the weak Yan army, he underestimates the enemy and advances aggressively. Even if the Yan army receives great assistance from the Mohist family, he cannot shirk his responsibility."

Behind the bead curtain, Ying Zheng's expression didn't change at all.Slowly picked up a bamboo slip from the table again, and said: "This is the book of Wang Jian's blaming, everyone, do you have any objections?"

"The minister waits for the second opinion!"

A group of ministers, no matter they support Xiong Qi's Chu family, or Meng Ao's old Qin and Yaodong families, at this moment, they dare not disobey Ying Zheng.

What's more, Wang Jian had already lost a battle, and Ying Zheng just cut off his post of coach, which is really speechless.

After all the ministers finished expressing their views, Ying Zheng said again: "The three armies cannot be without a commander for a day. Order Wang Ben to go north to replace Wang Jian as commander. The division of Daliang will be replaced by deputy general Meng Wu."

"Here!" Wei Liao, who is a national lieutenant and nominally in charge of the national army, nodded and responded.

As for Xiong Qi, there is no objection to this decision.Today's Chu family is absolutely weak, not to mention, the famous generals in the court of Qin State are like swallows, and among the Chu family, no one can take on this important task.

"Go back!"

"Congratulations to the king!"

In the harem, Ying Zheng handled government affairs as usual.And below, it was Li Si who carefully taught Fu Su and Meng Yi.As for Meng Tian, ​​he has already gone to the front line of Qin and Chu.

After destroying Yan State, Qin State's next goal is Chu State.

Ying Zheng didn't pay much attention to what happened above the court.Even the defeat of the Yan Kingdom, Ying Zheng never took it to heart.

Although the State of Yan has achieved a certain victory this time, the combat effectiveness between the Yan Army and the Qin Army is not above the same level after all.

Moreover, because Yandan gave up the strong city for a sneak attack, he chose to fight the Qin army in the field.Even if it is a small victory, it will definitely be exhausted.As long as the Qin army can defeat the Yan army once, the Yan army that has lost its fighting spirit will surely become a lamb under the sword of the Qin army.

What really annoyed Ying Zheng was the Mo family who possessed all sorts of strange tricks.

Although the Mohist mechanism technique can bring Qin Jun, it is just a disease of ringworm and scabies, which cannot affect the overall situation.However, what Yingzheng was worried about was that the Mo family would become the vanguard of the anti-Qin forces in the future by virtue of the great reputation they had gained from fighting the Qin army at this time.

Moreover, because of Yingzheng's rare thoughts of benevolence and righteousness, Yandan in the future can justifiably call on the relics of the kingdoms as the prince of Yan, and this is the most troublesome.

"Li Si. What do you think of today's matter?" Ying Zheng, who was a little irritable, turned his gaze to Li Si who was aside, and couldn't help asking.

Li Si, who was teaching earnestly at the bottom, was taken aback for a moment, and then respectfully pleaded guilty to Ying Zheng: "Li Si is half to blame for General Wang Jian's defeat."

There was a hint of doubt between Ying Zheng's brows.

"what for?"

Li Si still lowered his head and paid homage: "Li Si knew that the mastermind behind Jing Ke's incident was Crown Prince Dan of Yan, but because of his own foolish tricks, he made Daqin leave such a disaster."

Li Si's sudden confession made Ying Zheng smile a little, but he scolded: "Don't talk about such useless things, you know what I mean."

"Here! I'm guilty." Li Si saluted again, and then said: "In my opinion, although the Yan army and the Mo family are now working together, the commander of the two is also Yan Dan. However, the Yan army is the master, and The Mohists are just guests."

Ying Zheng nodded and said, "Continue talking."

"Now my army of 20, although I have suffered some setbacks, it is still within the acceptable range for my Daqin Ruishi. In a frontal battle, the Yan army must have no chance of winning.

However, if our army defeats Yan Dan with an upright and upright army, the world will only remember the defeat of the Yan army and the defeat of the Yan country, but they will forget the defeat of the Mo family.Even if you talk about it, you will think that the weakness of the Yan army is not the fault of the Mohists. "

A gleam of light flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes, and his sitting body involuntarily leaned forward a little.

It has to be said that in Qin State, Zhao Gao is the best when it comes to observing words and expressions.But when trying to figure out his mind, Li Si was the most important.

A few short words happened to tickle Ying Zheng's heart.

"So, why?"

Li Si still bowed his head, showing no sign of joy because his strategy was about to be adopted by Ying Zheng.

"Back to the king, although Li Si is not a member of the military school, he also knows that soldiers face soldiers, and generals will face generals. The Mohist school is famous all over the world, and the leader is the Mohist mechanism. Defeating them will not only raise the prestige of our Great Qin, but also cause the Mohist School's prestige to plummet."

Ying Zheng leaned slightly, and sat up slowly again, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"The meaning of loving you, few people know!"
