My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Chapter 353 The Chu army marches north, pulling the whole world into the water!

"Xiao'er, where's the fish?"

As soon as he returned home, Ying Chengyu saw Mrs. Han with an expectant face and a wooden pick in her hand.

There was a blazing bonfire burning in the yard, with a wooden stand set up on top and condiments placed next to it.

It can be said that everything is ready, all we need is fresh fish!

Ying Chengyu smiled awkwardly and said: "Fish..."

"I asked Mr. Changping to take him away, hahaha~"

"I don't want to eat fish today, but I want to eat rabbit!"

Ying Chengyu held up ten hares with both hands, as if he was afraid that Mrs. Han wouldn't see them.

Mrs. Han was slightly startled, then smiled: "The roasted rabbit is also excellent."

Ying Chengyu chuckled and said, "Yes, yes, I think so too!"

Handing the rabbit to Han Xun, who was suppressing a smile, Ying Chengyu sat down by the campfire and quickly changed the subject: "Mr. Changping wants to invite you to Chu."

Mrs. Han raised her eyebrows: "He has a lot on his mind."

Ying Chengyu going to Chu is definitely a good thing for Xiong Qi.

But it is difficult for Ying Chengyu to benefit.

Ying Chengyu nodded and said, "My son rejected him."

"In addition, Lord Changping also intends to exchange the magistrate of Yueyang County for the magistrate of Anling County."

Mrs. Han said without hesitation: "Mr. Changping is already preparing to enter Chu."

"Just to see whether the king agrees with this advice, we can know what the king really thinks about Lord Changping's move."

Anling City is a border city between Qin and Chu, and it is close to the upper reaches of Yingshui River. You can go down to Shouchun along Yingshui River.

Whether it is to carry out smuggling between Qin and Chu, launch a surprise attack on Shouchun City, or turn against the enemy and become an outpost of the Chu Kingdom, this place is the best choice.

Xiong Qi was obviously uneasy in asking for the position of county magistrate of Anlingcheng in such a hurry.

Ying Chengxiao smiled and said: "So I told you not to care about your attitude, just go and find Brother Wang for advice."

"It would be a good thing if he could be exchanged for the position of Yueyang County Magistrate."

Mrs. Han smiled happily: "Very good!"

"My son is wise!"

Ying Chengxuan smiled sheepishly and said, "Mr. Changping has never concealed it. It is not commendable for me to make such a decision."

Mrs. Han said seriously: "You don't need to explain it clearly to Mr. Changping. You can see what Mr. Changping wants. This is already progress!"

Ying Chengyu:? ? ?

Concubine, I suspect you are scolding me!

Mrs. Han smiled and said, "It's okay."

"None of these things have anything to do with you or me."

Taking the processed rabbit from Han Xun's hand, Mrs. Han put it on the wooden stick with great interest: "What I want to do most now is to taste the rabbit that my son hunted by himself!"

Ying Chengyu also smiled: "I will often go to the Weishui River in the future. There will be many opportunities to eat fish."

"But such plump hares are rare!"

With a smile on her face, Mrs. Han did not expose Ying Chengyun, but changed the subject thoughtfully: "I have borrowed more than three million yuan."

"You can start doing what you want to do."

Ying Chengyu handed over his hands in surprise: "Thank you, concubine!"

The next day.

Dozens of knights rushed out of Chang'an Jun's Mansion.

Nearly 10,000 landless and propertyless people from Guizhou gathered openly and openly towards Chang'an Township from Daliang City, Fushi County and Tunliu County.

The local Guizhou leaders in Chang'an Township who were in the slack period were also mobilized by Ying Chengyu.

This winter, Chang'an Township is in full swing!

Compared with the whole world, Chang'an Township is more like a paradise.

Just two months after the King of Chu died violently, the King of Chu passed away for no reason!

After eradicating all competitors in the country, Young Master Fu Chu successfully ascended the throne and became king!

Young Master Ning Chu's move to usurp the throne once again dragged down the already collapsed etiquette and music.

It also makes many careerists unable to help but come forward.

If King Han of Chu is not the biological son of King Kaolie of Chu, this lame reason can support the usurpation of the throne.

Then Wang Jian of Qi and Wang Xi of Yan, who were also born outside, must be the biological sons of the late king?

Zhao Taizi Qian's mother remarried several times, so Zhao Taizi Qian may not necessarily be Zhao Wangyan's son!

There are undercurrents starting to emerge at the top levels of various countries.

However, the King of Chu quickly quelled the internal strife in Chu, married Zhao and deepened the Chu-Zhao alliance, and other actions, which caused a great change in the world situation.

For a time, a tense atmosphere enveloped the world.

The war is about to start!

……

In the eleventh year of the Qin Dynasty, it was February 1st.

Xianyang Palace, Imperial Study Room.

All the ministers gathered here, all with serious expressions on their faces.

Because the cloud of war has once again enveloped the sky over Da Qin!

On the high platform, Ying Zheng asked in a deep voice:

"Zhu State Yan of Chu led an army of 50,000 people to the north and stationed in Xiangcheng."

"Chu Zuo Yinhuan led an army of 30,000 people to the north and settled in Shangcai."

"My dear friends, what do you think our Great Qin should do?"

Qu Huan's troops and Xiang Yan's troops combined 80,000 troops and marched north to the Qin-Chu border.

Is this a large force?

Compared with the battle last year, the size of this army was not even a partial division.

Is this force considered small?

In the Battle of Yiyang, which allowed Qin to control the dangers of Wei and Han and successfully move eastward from the Central Plains, Qin and South Korea sent only this number of troops.

If Chu had more troops, Ying Zheng would not need to be embarrassed and could directly decide to send troops.

If the Chu State's troops were smaller, Ying Zheng would not need to be embarrassed, and Chen Cheng and other cities could recruit troops on the spot to complete the defense.

However, the strength of Chu State's troops gathered on the border this time was at a level that was neither high nor low.

Wei Liao said in a deep voice: "I thought that we should recruit one hundred thousand troops to strengthen the defense of Chen City."

"Now that our great Qin has gained the navy of Wei, we can use the Ying River as a basis."

"If we are not invincible, we should not give up the Yingshui line." "Besides, the north of Yingshui is a fertile land with abundant grain production. If the Chu army goes north to seize Yingchuan, Dangjun and other counties, Qin will be weak and Chu will be strong! "

Zhongyuan is really delicious!

Even in Guanzhong where the Zhengguo Canal was built, its grain output was still not as good as that of the Central Plains.

Only by truly mastering the Central Plains region can Great Qin obtain enough nutrients to support the continuous advancement of this war beast.

For Great Qin, this is a strategic location that cannot be lost unless it cannot be defeated!

Wei Zhuang then spoke: "I believe that while we are increasing our troops in Chencheng to be on guard against Chu, we cannot relax our guard against Zhao."

"The hatred between Qin and Zhao is far away!"

"In recent years, whenever our country, Qin Dynasty, fights foreign wars, Zhao will always help the enemy."

"And the reason why Chu State dared to increase troops on the border must be because it has reached an alliance with Zhao State."

"In my opinion, the State of Zhao will soon increase its troops on the border, forcing us, Great Qin, to increase our troops to counter it."

"And according to King Zhao's temperament, if our border with Qin is empty, Zhao will not hesitate to tear up the alliance and brazenly send troops to seize several cities!"

Han Cang couldn't help but retorted: "Prime Minister Wei, Lieutenant Guo, do you two know what time it is now?"

"In a few days it will be time for spring plowing!"

"You two want to recruit 160,000 troops to fight at such a critical time?!"

"So much manpower has been diverted away, who will cultivate those acres!"

"How much fertile land will be wasted or even abandoned this year!"

The addition of 160,000 troops to the Qin-Chu border and Qin-Zhao border not only means that 160,000 young men have been taken away.

Given the current baggage transportation conditions and the location of granaries in the Qin Dynasty, nearly 400,000 civilian laborers are needed to transport food for these soldiers!

These corvees may be old people, adopted sons-in-law, or disabled people who are not good at fighting.

But at least they have the strength to farm!

Wei Zhuang shook his head: "It's just a temporary increase of 160,000 troops."

Just when Han Cang felt relieved, he heard Wei Zhuang continue: "Depending on the change of the situation, more troops may be added in the future."

"Please also ask Han Shangqing to prepare early."

Han Cang immediately became anxious: "Are you going to continue to increase the number of troops?"

"Last year, I and Da Qin fought for a year, which caused the fields to be barren and the grain harvest to be severely reduced."

"The grain reserves in our Great Qin treasury this year are just enough, and they cannot withstand a war at all!"

"Can we take a one-year truce?"

"Even if it's lobbying, bribery, or even ceding one or two cities in exchange for a year of peace, isn't it okay?"

"My Daqin granary is really unbearable!"

Han Cang's words were filled with sorrow and helplessness.

Han Cang wanted to point his finger at Wei Zhuang and Wei Liao's noses and curse them.

Still fighting?

What a fart!

You guys just don't know how expensive firewood and rice are!

We are out of food!

Wei Zhuang and Wei Liao were just about to explain to Ying Zheng when they heard Ying Zheng say in a deep voice: "Now that the Chu State is increasing its troops on the border, the request for war is false, but the threat is real."

"What he wants is to force us, the Qin Dynasty, to deploy young men to guard the border and prevent us from farming."

"I also think that Zhao State may increase its troops on the border to involve the young and strong men of Qin Dynasty."

"If I, the Qin Dynasty, show weakness, it will allow these two countries to seize our country's weakness."

"Not only will they not withdraw their troops, but they will become even more aggressive!"

If Chu and Zhao each sent 100,000 troops to garrison the border, Qin would have to send an additional 200,000 troops to garrison the border, and Qin's supply transportation lines would far exceed those of Chu.

Although this move has great disadvantages for all three countries.

However, the combined losses suffered by Chu and Zhao were not as great as those suffered by Qin alone.

If things go on like this, the national power of the three countries will naturally be drawn closer.

As for the two countries of Chu and Zhao who stationed troops on the border, wouldn't Qin follow suit and increase their troops?

Huh~

Then the coercion of Chu and Zhao will quickly turn into a strong attack to seize Qin's territory!

Wei Zhuang and Wei Liao both handed over their hands happily: "Your Majesty Mingjian!"

Han Cang frowned: "Aren't Chu and Zhao afraid of our great Qin taking the initiative to send troops?"

Wei Xiao asked quietly: "How much food does our Great Qin have?"

In one sentence, Han Cang was speechless.

Da Qin really doesn’t have much food left.

Today's Great Qin is like a tiger that has just experienced a life-and-death struggle.

The brocade hair is stained with blood, and shreds of flesh are stuffed between the teeth.

Everyone knows that it is not easy to mess with, but it is really tired and out of energy. It must rest for a while before it has the strength to face a new war!

Han Cang asked anxiously: "What is the solution to this strategy?"

"Can it be that our Great Qin can only be so involved by Chu and Zhao?"

Wei Liao said in a deep voice: "I think we can ask Qi and Yan to increase their troops on the border to threaten Zhao and Chu."

"In this way, Zhao and Chu not only need to increase their troops to guard against our Qin officers and soldiers, but also need to increase their troops to guard against our Qi and Yan officers and soldiers."

"Of course our country, the Qin Dynasty, will be depleted of its national strength because of the troops on the border."

"But the young men recruited by Zhao and Chu, and the grain and grass they consume will be no less than our Qin."

"In this way, there will be a check and balance!"

The two countries of Chu and Zhao used Yangmou.

Regardless of whether Qin sees through it or not, Qin must submit!

But while Qin surrendered, it could choose to make a bigger fuss and drag the whole world down.

Consume it!

The whole world is fighting to see who will be consumed first!
