When people were in Qin, the advantage was mine

Chapter 10 Right and wrong, merit and demerit are all temporary illusions

……

"Don't you see, the water of the great river comes up from the sky, rushing to the sea and never returning."

"Don't you see, Gaotang Mingjing is sad and white hair, the morning is like blue silk and the evening turns into snow..."

Outside Hangu Pass, Xinling Lord Wei Wuji, who was deploying the marching front, received the message from Xianyang, or in other words, everyone received it.

However, they don't understand.

The war was about to begin. The Qin State did not gather troops to send letters to Guguan, nor did it send envoys to sue for peace. Instead, it sent poems to everyone in such a ostentatious manner?

Could it be that Ying Chen wanted everyone to retreat just because of his literary talents?
"General, what does he mean?"

In the large tent, Lord Xinling was sitting at the head of the table, and his followers were sitting below. After reading the poem from Ying Chen, none of them understood it.

"The bright mirror in the high hall has sad white hair, the morning is like blue silk and it turns into snow at dusk..." Mr. Xinling looked at the poem in his hand with a smile on his face.

"This Luoyang Lord is living a clear life."

Fame and wealth are just fleeting. I think he was once as high-spirited and outstanding as Ying Chen. Now he is attracting the attention of the seven countries. But he is already old. Even if he has the ability, how long can he live?

Time flies by, and I don’t know when he will have gray hair...

"Ying Chen is only a little boy. He must be afraid of your Majesty and wants to use this to please Your Majesty, thinking he is seeking peace."

Zhu Hai was the number one horse boy in Lord Xinling's account and was also the deputy sect leader of the Pijia Sect. Zhu Hai didn't bother to say anything.

As soon as this statement came out, everyone immediately responded.

"Indeed, it's just because of his status as the Qin royal family that he has such a reputation, so it's not worth mentioning."

"His military achievements must have been based on the remnants of his past. Otherwise, where did so many military wizards come from in this world? And they all came from his Qin country? It's a joke."

"After Bai Qi's death, the state of Qin was reduced to such a situation. It could only rely on a small child to support the situation. It's really getting better and better as time goes by. If Meng Ao dies again, there will probably be no one left in the state of Qin, right?"

"That's right..."

"..."

Listening to everyone's echoing comments, Lord Xinling did not express his position.

A war is imminent. At this time, it is better not to attack them.

To be honest, if Ying Chen accepts the challenge, he may not have much of the reputation he has accumulated throughout his life. After all, losing both sides is the best outcome he can deduce.

As for the external claims of conquering Hangu Pass and carving up the Qin Dynasty?Stop making trouble. Unless the Qin State makes a major mistake, with the current strength of the Six Nations, even without Ying Chen, they have little hope.

This time he was willing to obey King Wei's call to send troops because Qin's Guanzhong Canal was very costly. Half of Qin's supplies had already been invested. This was the best time to attack Qin!
Originally, he was still thinking about how to rally the coalition forces with the Three Jin Alliance as the core and delay the fight with the Qin State, but he never expected that the Qin State would actually send troops first!He also headed towards the Kingdom of Wei, giving King Wei a reason to send troops!

How can such a God-given opportunity be wasted so easily?

After a while, only Lord Xinling and a few people close to him were left in the big tent.

"General, Lord Luoyang is not someone who likes poetry."

Hou Ying, the grandson of Xinlingjun's good friend Hou Ying, said with a solemn expression.

Lord Xinling was stunned, "What do you mean?"

"General, I have been to Xianyang before and met the Luoyang Lord of the Qin State several times. What I said just now is that the Luoyang Lord is not worthy of his name and is actually empty talk." Hou Ying said.

"This man is well versed in the military tactics used by Lord Wu An in the past, and he has a very deep mind. At least I cannot understand him at all."

"That's because you are blind." Zhu Hai snorted coldly.

Hou Ying was not annoyed and continued: "What I admire most is that in the court of Qin, this Lord of Luoyang has no enemies!"

"Being able to reject dissidents is considered a capable person; being able to turn enemies into friends is considered a righteous person. However, no one in the civil and military dynasties regards him as an enemy. Is this person really an ordinary person?"

"Your Majesty, even you can't do it, right?"

"How presumptuous! You kid, you actually have more ambition than others..." "Zhu Hai." Lord Xinling raised his hand to interrupt Zhu Hai who seemed to be angry.

"In this regard, I am indeed inferior to him."

Everyone in the world believes that Lord Xinling is benevolent and righteous. However, whether it is the court of Zhao State or the court of Wei State, there are many people who are hostile to him. Even after sending troops this time, the news reports he received have already been criticized by some. The intention is to commit rebellion, and there are not a few people who agree with it.

Even closer to home, there are not a few people with evil intentions in the coalition forces. It's just the general trend and everyone is cooperating with him on the surface.

If there is a chance, there will definitely be many people who want to bring him down.

But Ying Chen, in his position, there is an abyss between advancement and retreat.

"How does this relate to these two lines of his poem?" Lord Xinling asked.

A trace of fear flashed across Hou Ying's face, "Does Your Majesty still remember the Battle of Changping?"

Lord Xinling nodded. The siege of Handan after Changping was the highest achievement in his life until now. It was only then that the name of Lord Xinling was officially spread to the world.

"what happened?"

Seeing Hou Ying's somewhat blue face, Lord Xinling couldn't help but feel doubtful.

"Your Majesty, do you remember General Zhao Kuo?" Hou Ying said solemnly.

"Of course I remember." Lord Xinling became more and more confused. How could it be related to Zhao Kuo?

"Your Majesty, during the Changping disaster in the past, more than 240 surrendered soldiers of the Zhao Kingdom were trapped and killed, leaving only [-] children to return to Zhao. Among them, I know a few of them." Hou Ying lowered his head unconsciously.

"One of them once told me after drinking that the document of false surrender with General Zhao Kuo on Changping was written by Ying Chen, and General Zhao Kuo also died at the hands of Ying Chen!"

"As written in this poem, the water of the river comes up from the sky. I can't help but think that the Qin State built three dams on the river at Ying Chen's strong request a few years ago for water conservancy. Now that the flood season is approaching, if the Qin army Destroy the dike..."

Before Hou Ying finished speaking, Lord Xinling's face turned pale.

"He dares?!" Zhu Hai was shocked.

"A ten-year-old child dared to pretend to surrender more than [-] people from the Zhao Kingdom and killed them all in Changping. The blame for the crime afterwards rested solely on Wu'an Jun Bai Qi. Now, does he really dare not do it again?" Hou Ying said solemnly.

"Now the closest place to the dam is Pingyang. Pingyang's guard will be Wang Lu, the former Baiqi old man. Everyone in the Qin army knows that Wang Lu regards Ying Chen as his own son. Won't he bear such sins for Ying Chen? ?”

"Your Majesty, this poem is not a sentiment! It is a threat! It is also a notice!"

"That's enough!" Lord Xinling interrupted urgently.

"Never say it again!"

The coalition forces are at their peak at this time. If they hear that the disaster of the river is high, there will definitely be chaos!

Once the 50-strong army gets into trouble, no one can control it!

"Hurry up and ask someone to check the water level. Also, hurry up and check the condition of the dam." Lord Xinling said to Hou Ying.

"Don't tell anyone what happened today!"

"I understand!" Hou Ying bowed and quickly stood up and left the tent.

Looking at Lord Xinling's pale face, Zhu Hai felt puzzled, "Your Majesty, Luoyang is Ying Chen's fiefdom. If he really destroys the dike, Luoyang will also be affected. He..."

"He can do it!" Lord Xinling interrupted.

"Others may fear eternal infamy, but he is not afraid!"

"A hundred years will see birth, old age, sickness and death, a thousand years will see the change of dynasties, and a thousand years will see the stars change. Right and wrong, merit and demerit are all temporary and false, so why worry about other people's comments!"

"How can a person who can say such things care about the infamy?"

"Damn it! Madman! How could I meet such a madman!"
