Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 151
"This letter is from the second son Xiang Yan sent from the front line. What does Da Sima think?" Inside the palace where the King of Chu was burdened, the serious King of Chu faced a man standing in the hall with his body covered. The military general in uniform asked.

This person is Jing Qi, the royal family of the Chu State. After the Great Sima Jingchang was ambushed and killed on the border of Qi and Chu, he succeeded the Great Sima of the Chu State.From the fact that he can be directly questioned by Ling Chu alone in Ling Chu's bedroom, it can be seen that this person is someone the King of Chu trusts very much.

Ever since Jing Qi read the letter handed to him by King Chu, he kept frowning, not knowing how to reply.

It's not that Jing Qi is not decisive enough. On the contrary, as one of the few generals in the Chu royal family, Jing Qi has always been known for his decisiveness in killing and attacking. However, Xiang Yan held this letter in his hand as if he was holding a ball of hot candles. Fire general, do not know how to answer.

In the final analysis, there are only two rumors spread by the state of Qin in Chu, one is loyalty to Xiang Yan, and this rumor has been self-defeating since Xiang Yan moved all her descendants to Shouchun City.

In Xiang Yan's letter to the King of Chu, what was written was Xiang Yan's response to the second rumor raised by the King of Chu.

"It has been said that the king wanted to confiscate the country and the soldiers of the various tribes, and Yan thought that this must be a trick of the Qin people, intending to destabilize our country in Great Chu.

I heard that all the princes and patriarchs gathered in Shouchun, and there is a tendency to connect with each other. However, Yan thought that this is also an opportunity for us to conquer Chu. The Lord will be at the feet of the king, but all the armies are under me, the king will do it in reality, the world is like a rainbow, so my big Chu is not invincible. "

Xiang Yan's strategy can be said to be the opposite. Didn't you, Qin State, spread a rumor that the king wanted to seize the army of the lord and the tribe? It happened that this rumor attracted almost all the lords and clan leaders to Shouchun. We must jointly put pressure on the king of Chu.

Then the king can take this opportunity to directly kill all the lords and patriarchs in Shouchun, and then send people to take over the fiefdoms of these people.

To be honest, King Chu of Chu was very moved by this proposal. The comprehensive strength of Chu State is not much worse than that of Qin State. However, due to the special political system of Chu State, there are too many large and small lords in Chu State. , it can be said that it is not an exaggeration.

If you can take this opportunity to abolish all the lords, then you can ignore these domestic conflicts against Chu and concentrate on fighting the Qin army.

Nowadays, these lords don't have any troops in their hands, which is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"I believe that this matter still needs to be discussed in the long run, and we must not act rashly." After a long silence, Jing Qi looked at the ready-to-movement and said slowly: "Slaughtering all the princes, among the clan...?"

Jing Qi's words immediately made Ling Chu feel a little discouraged.

After all, it is not right for negative Chu to win the country, even now many respected elders in the royal family of Chu have some criticisms about negative Chu.

If so many princes of the royal family were killed again, I am afraid that no one in the Chu royal family would stand by him.

The reason why Lu Chu was able to become King of Chu was firstly because of the support of Xiang Yan and other generals, and secondly because of the support of the royal family.Most of the employees are in the hands of the royal family and nobles.

If he loses the support of the royal family, even if he suppresses it with iron and blood, who can he trust without the clan?

In this era, the strongest bond is the clan ties.

Xiang Yan's strategy can indeed gather the power of the whole country in the shortest time, and fight against Qin without any reservations, but King Chu of Chu has never been able to make this determination.

He was afraid that after abandoning the clan, the state of Chu would eventually become like the state of Jin, where the scholar-bureaucrats ruled and eventually fell apart.

"Qi, there is a plan, which can solve the current crisis without killing." When Ling Chu was at a loss, he spoke again.

"What's Da Sima's plan, tell me quickly." Like a drowning man, Ling Chu immediately asked when he heard that Jing Qi had other plans.

"All the princes and patriarchs are worried about their deployment and not their own. The king can also push it forward, and send all the princes and patriarchs into the army to command their own troops, under the command of General Xiang Yan.

In this way, the princes will be speechless. "

Jing Qi slowly said that this was the only way he could think of, the only way to stop these people from talking without attacking them.

After hearing this, the King of Chu frowned slightly. Jing Qi's plan could indeed calm down the restlessness in the capital of Chu, but he always felt that there was something wrong with this plan.

However, if Xiang Yan's plan cannot be used at this time, this is the only choice.

"Make an order, follow your policy." The King of Chu said this in a low voice, he didn't know what would happen if such a group of nobles were thrown into the army, but he had to do so under the current situation .

The king of Chu's order spread to the palace, and the people who were most excited were the big and small lords.

Going to the front line can directly control your own army, as long as the army is in your own hands, you can't care about other things.

And in their view, going to the front line at this time is not dangerous at all. It has been almost a year, and the Qin army has not moved south on a large scale. It is clear that Qin does not want a decisive battle.

Within a few days, the nobles and nobles who originally gathered in Shouchun City basically ran away. Those who chased each other rushed to the front line with their families and guards. The servants went forward in a mighty manner.

Compared with the tranquility of Shouchun City, Xiang Yan has a few more strands of white hair these days.After this group of nobles came to the front line, the entire camp of the Chu army was in a state of chaos.

Just this day, a group of nobles found Xiang Yan on the grounds that the food was not good enough and the residence was too rough. His deployment left the line of defense and ran to the nearby mountains to hunt.

It turns out that although none of these people has many deployments, there are only a few thousand if there are more than [-] to [-], but the status of each of them is no less than that of Xiang Yan.

Although the king of Chu ordered Xiang Yan to lead this group of people, but if you think about it, when such a group of people gathered in Shouchun, even the king of Chu would have a headache, so how could he take Xiang Yan, a general, in his eyes.

In Xiang Yan's eyes, this group of people didn't fight at all, but seemed to come to the front line to play.

After Xiang Yan heard the report, she was furious and punched Shuai case.

"Why is your majesty so unwise!" Xiang Yan thought to himself.

Although sending these people to the front line temporarily stabilized the domestic situation, but such a group of dudes came to lead the army, it was tantamount to playing with fire, and if they were not careful, they would ignite themselves.
