Da Qin: Confucianism, Dharma and Taoism

Outside the city of Yingdu, there was a swarm of Qin troops, with shouts of killing and drums blaring.

The city of Yingdu was also filled with smoke, and two thousand Qin troops led by Shejian were struggling to attack the city gate.

Under the internal and external attacks of the Qin army, coupled with the insufficient number of the Chu army, it was difficult to defend no matter how strong the city was.

Decades ago, Bai Qi, Lord of Wu'an, led an army to attack the capital of the Chu State. However, now that Ying was recaptured by the Chu Army in less than ten days, it was about to be captured again by the Qin Army.

In the palace of Lord Changping in Yingdu City, the Chu general Yingbu and the peasant hero Tian Guang were all persuading:

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid Yingdu can't stand it any longer. Please make your decision as soon as possible!"

"Your Majesty, if it is too late for us to leave Yingdu now, if Li Xin's army really waits to surround Yingdu, we may not be able to escape."

The two of them talked earnestly and persuaded Mr. Changping to leave here.

Mr. Changping"Zero 20" was unwilling to accept it. He murmured and asked:"Is it true that you can't hold on? This is an opportunity, the best opportunity"

"If we can keep Li Xin's army under Yingdu City and wait until General Xiang Yan's army arrives, Qin will suffer heavy losses."

"This is our last chance and the last chance for Chu State."

There is no reason why Lord Changping should not panic at this time. In fact, the development and result of the matter are completely different from what he expected.

According to Lord Changping's idea, the best result of his betrayal this time is that all of Li Xin's 300,000 troops will be defeated. The army was annihilated.

If this is really done, it will be a great shock to the Qin State, which will make the Qin State shake its muscles and bones. Li Xin will also be finished, and even Changan Lord will definitely be implicated.

Of course Changping Jun yourself also understands that it is very difficult to achieve this result. After all, Li Xin is not a fool. If he encounters danger, he will lead his army to escape.

But the next best thing is to let the 300,000 troops suffer heavy losses and let Li Xin Xin will no longer have the opportunity to lead the army.

In this case, there is a high possibility that the internal court struggle in the Qin State will involve Chang'an Lord.

Because Li Xin is Chang'an Lord's person, Chang'an Lord cannot look at Li Xin like this Completely finished, that is the military general that Chang'an Jun has invested in for nearly ten years.

As the former prime minister of the Qin State, Changping Jun knows the internal affairs of the Qin State very well, and he can clearly see that there will inevitably be conflicts between the brothers Ying Zheng and Ying Wei. The conflict.

It was not a conflict between brothers, but a conflict between the king and his ministers.

That's why he came up with this trick, just to stimulate this conflict. No matter who wins in the end is Ying Zheng or Ying Wei, For the Qin State, it was an internal fight that seriously damaged the vitality of the state.

When Qin was fighting within the country, the Chu State had the opportunity to develop. Changping Lord believed that he could correct the mistakes of the Chu State with his own ability, thus forming a relationship with the Qin State. The confrontation between the north and the south.

Yes, even the optimistic Lord Changping never thought about the Chu State counterattacking the Qin State. His only idea was to let Qin and Chu confront each other and prevent the Chu State from being destroyed in his lifetime.

As for what will happen in the future In this way, it depends on the wisdom of future generations.

But Changping Jun never expected that the current result was the last thing he wanted to see.

Although Li Xin's army suffered losses, with tens of thousands of casualties, Compared with the total number of 300,000 people, the casualties of these tens of thousands of people are acceptable.

On the contrary, for the Qin State, it is a great achievement that Li Xin can do this despite his betrayal. I'm afraid Li Xin needs to be reused even more.

But what should I do?

Lord Changping is also at a loss now.

You must know that the King of Chu has not abdicated yet, and the King of Chu is still alive.

What if Lord Changping returns to Chu with the reputation of a great victory over Qin? country, he could use this reputation and his own status to rise to power with the help of the nobles of the Chu Kingdom.

But he did not do this at this time. If he wanted to win the current King of Chu, it would be unfair and unjust.

And the most important thing is that after this, Qin State will definitely retaliate against Chu State and will definitely destroy Chu State, and he, the betrayed former Qin State Prime Minister, must be one of the people Qin State must kill.

It can be said that today's Changping Lord He has reached a dead end. Even if he leaves Yingdu today, he will inevitably die.

How can Lord Changping be willing to do this?

At this time, Lord Changping felt quite regretful. Why did he have the greed for power in the first place, and was in conflict with the Chu State? The nobles made contact.

Now it can be said that he has been completely attacked by these Chu nobles. Even if he wants to retreat, he has no way to retreat.

Lord Changping now wants to sacrifice all the Chu troops in the capital of Ying. He also wanted to block Li Xin's army. This was his only chance to survive.

However, Yingbu's words shattered the last hope of Lord Changping:"Your Majesty, don't hesitate any longer. Even if you stay here in Yingdu for one more hour, I'm afraid your life will be in danger!"

Seeing Yingbu's expression, Wanting to maintain his attitude of leaving, Mr. Changping finally stopped thinking.

He tried to calm down, knowing that even if the future was a dead end, he would go on. What if something happened in the future that gave him a way to survive?

And just like Yingbu said, if he forcibly stayed in Yingdu at this time, it would be a real dead end, and there would be no future.

Thinking of this, Mr. Changping no longer hesitated and said to Yingbu and Tian Guang:"Okay, please also ask General Yingbu and Tian Xiakui to take me away." Mr. Changping

's martial arts is almost equivalent to no one, and at this moment he can only rely on With the protection of Yingbu and Tian Guang, he left Yingdu.

Yingbu did not hesitate and immediately went to order his own soldiers.

Tian Guang also found some elite farm disciples, and the two parties joined together and took Lord Changping to evacuate to the opposite city gate where Li Xin was attacking.

At this time, Yingdu was already in chaos, and no one knew about Changping Jun's departure. The elite Chu soldiers thought that the Changping army was behind them, and they were still fighting hard.

Before leaving, Lord Changping gave his last order:"Light all the food and grass in the city and light as many houses as possible. I will make the capital of Ying completely barren!"

This order of Lord Changping can be said to be quite spicy. You must know that Ying There are many old Chu people in the capital who have helped him before.

But at this time, in order to cause trouble to the Qin army, even if it was just to disgust the Qin army, Lord Changping did not care about the old people of Chu who supported him, and even set fire to their residences.

Yingbu didn't think there was anything wrong with this order. It is said that kindness does not control the army. In order to win, sometimes he has to do some very ruthless things.

An hour later, there was a burst of cheers at the city gate of Yingdu, and Li Xin's army, with the cooperation of Shejian, broke through the city gate.

Tens of thousands of Qin troops invaded the city, but the elite Chu soldiers who sneaked into the capital of Ying still resisted tenaciously, but in the end they were completely wiped out by the Qin troops.

But the fire that broke out before Lord Changping left also filled the interior of Yingdu with black smoke billowing and flames raging into the sky. Amidst the raging fire and the cries of killing, there were only the wails of the people crying in pain.

This old capital of Chu State, which was relatively well-preserved, turned into almost a ruin in the hands of Changping Jun, a native of Chu State.

When Ying Wei led the march to Yingdu, he saw such a scene..
