Chapter 97 Chapter 9

The battle to attack Chu was led by two baby generals.Coach Li Xin and lieutenant Meng Tian are both vigorous young men in their early twenties.The two led an army each, and marched in parallel. Li Xin attacked Pingyu, and Meng Tian attacked Qiqi. On the Chu side, the famous general Xiang Yan took the command to fight against Qin.The famous general Xiang Yan is unknown to many people today, but when it comes to his grandson, it can be said that everyone knows, everyone knows.His grandson is Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu!Speaking of it, it can be regarded as a trick of good fortune. If Xiang Yu was born a few years earlier, and fought side by side with the master, with Xiang Yu's unrivaled courage, whether Qin could successfully destroy Chu is still unknown.

However, history has no assumptions, and Xiang Yan can't wait for little Xiang Yu to grow up.Qin Jun is currently planning to move out?Xiang Yan is worthy of being a famous general, and he has a plan in mind. He knows that the fighting power of the Chu army is not as good as that of the Qin army. He can only use the vast territory of Chu to lure the enemy in depth, prolong the battle line, consume the Qin army, and then take the opportunity to attack and win in one fell swoop. At the beginning of the war, the Qin army really played a triumphant song, and the two armies of Li Xin and Meng Tian won great victories.Li Xin attacked Yanying again, and conquered it easily, so he led his troops west, intending to join forces with Meng Tian in the city father.At this point, the Chu army had just come out with all their best, and pursued from behind. For three days and three nights without rest, they killed seven captains and countless soldiers died.The Qin army was defeated and had to retreat in embarrassment.

Suffering such a disastrous defeat, Yingzheng was furious, knowing that it was Li Xinbing's fault.It seemed that Wang Jian had to be the one to destroy Chu, so he drove himself to Pinyang, saw Xie Wang Jian, and said: "I don't use the general's strategy, Li Xinguo insulted the Qin army. Today I heard that Jing's soldiers are marching westward. Although the general is sick, he endures it alone." Abandon the widow!" Wang Jian's anger was still in his heart, and he said: "The old minister will stop the illness and rebel against the chaos, but the king will choose a good general."

Ying Zheng thanked again and said, "It's over, general, don't say anything again!" Ying Zheng said so much that Wang Jian had no room to refuse. Wang Jian knew that it was fun to show off, but he had to let it go as soon as it was good.Back then, the God of War Bai Qi was given to die by Du You because he refused to be the coach of the Qin Army.Nowadays, it is rare for Ying Zheng to come to the door in person, pleading guilty and apologizing, which gave him enough face.If he dares to resist the order again and refuses to follow, he will inevitably end up in the same end as Bai Qi.Wang Jian could only agree, saying: "Your Majesty must use ministers as a last resort, and there must be 600,000 people."

Ying Zheng agreed and said, "I want to listen to the general's advice." So he personally affixed the seal to Wang Jian and awarded 600,000 troops. Three days later, Wang Jian set off from Pinyang, and after a short distance, he was stopped by a group of men who shouted for Wang Jian to accept the order.All the attendants were suspicious, fearing something ominous, but Du Wang Jian said calmly, "It must be a great joy." As expected by Wang Jian, Yingzheng handed over 600,000 troops to Wang Jian, but he was not really relieved. In order to win over Wang Jian, he specially descended to Princess Huayang. married.Therefore, the soldiers were formed into the city, and brocade tents were set up in the center, and the ceremony of marriage between husband and wife was performed.

It is said that the emperor's daughter is not worried about getting married. On the other hand, Ying Zheng is anxious to marry his daughter, and the marriage is done in such a hurry.That Princess Huayang must not be more than sixteen years old, but Wang Jian is already an old man, such a marriage can be sighed. Wang Jian got a young and beautiful princess and became Ying Zheng's son-in-law, but he was not satisfied.When the army went out to fight, many people were invited to the Meitian house and garden.Ying Zheng wondered: "If the general returns successfully, the widow will share wealth with the general. Why worry about being poor?"

Wang Jian said: "As a great king and general, he will not be named a marquis if he has meritorious service. Therefore, as for the king's ministers, the ministers will promptly ask the garden for their children and grandchildren." Ying Zheng laughed, Xu Zhi. However, it's not over yet.Wang Jian sent troops to Hangu Pass, and sent envoys back to Xianyang five times, each time with the same request, asking Yingzheng to grant more beautiful fields and gardens, more, more. Lieutenant General Meng Wu couldn't stand it.Your old Wang family is also one of the most prominent families in Qin, but you, Wang Jian, are so brazen and greedy, as if you have never seen money in eight lifetimes, so what?So Zheng Se persuaded and said, "The general's begging for money is too much."

Wang Jian said: "Otherwise. Husband, King Qin, is timid and distrustful of people. Now that he is empty of the army of the Qin State, he is entrusted to me. I don't want to ask the fields and houses for his descendants to strengthen himself. Gu Ling Qin King sits and suspects me?" Only then did Meng Wu suddenly realize.High, really high.Corruption, corruption, and self-defilement, entrust the power to the king, so that he can feel at ease, and show that his love is only money and money, and he has no other heart.Meng Wu sighed, "The general's opinion is beyond anyone's reach."
