Chapter 1071: East becomes West (64)

After the news of Li Xin's defeat and Wang Xiao's defeat was officially announced by the Qin court, the entire Qin State fell into silence. This was the biggest failure that Qin State had encountered in decades. The Qin State arsenal opened and began to arm the young and strong in Xianyang. On the streets, the soldiers who had just put on Qin's uniforms or those who only had weapons and did not even have unified clothing. Since the national mobilization order has not been issued, except for the surrounding areas of Xianyang, the rest of the Qin State were still waiting for Xianyang's orders nervously, but the entire country has entered an extremely tense atmosphere.

The atmosphere of the Xianyang is the huge palace of the Black Ice Platform. The Xuanyiwei, the personal army of King Wulie of Qin, surrounded the palace with three steps and five steps, and could walk up the steps without any obstacles and push open the heavy gate, but only a few people.

On the third day of the August 19th, it was a sad day for the people of Xianyang. Because on this day, the coffin of their military god Li Xin was escorted by a team of soldiers in the Han Dynasty and returned to Xianyang. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, this team of Han soldiers arrived at night. After handing over Li Xin's coffin outside the city, they were escorted by soldiers in the Qin Dynasty and left Xianyang.

When the sun rose from the east, Li Xin's coffin entered the city under the escort of Qin soldiers. The civil and military officials led by the fourth prince Ying Ying came out to welcome him. Ying Ying personally helped the coffin. Li Xin's coffin went straight into the Xianyang Palace and was carried to the huge palace of the Black Ice Platform, and placed in front of the bed of King Wulie of Qin.

King Wulie's body was completely collapsed, and he couldn't even sit up from the bed. Looking at the huge coffin placed in front of the bed, King Wulie was crying. He stretched out his hand and held the cold coffin, "Li Xin, it was me who harmed you. When Helanxiong successfully retreated from Dai County, I should follow your advice and give up this attack. It was me, with a lucky heart and let you continue to move forward. This led to today's bitter wine. I don't know if you were blaming me before you died, but I know that I didn't have enough time. Although Ying Ying was good, she was still far inferior to Gao Yuan. I think that in my lifetime, I will defeat Gao Yuan and leave him a situation that is easier to deal with!"

King Wulie of Qin who was muttering to himself wiped the tears from his face.

"Li Xin, you are stupid. Even if you reach that point, with your ability, it is not a problem for you to escape safely. Why don't you understand that you can be worth 100,000 soldiers alone? Why do you fight for your life for such a little hope? Why don't you escape? Even if the 100,000 troops are destroyed, but as long as you can come back, how big can we build another 100,000 soldiers!"

Ying Ying, who was kneeling aside, also said sadly: "Father, let's be mourning!"

King Wulie of Qin stared at the coffin, how could Ying Ying understand his relationship with Li Xin? Li Xin has been following King Wulie of Qin since he was a child. In that era of swords and swords, Li Xin was born and died again and again, and broke into a world with King Wulie of Qin and helped King Wulie of Qin ascend to the throne of Qin. In the first few years when King Wulie of Qin first ascended the throne, Li Xin led his troops outside to repel the attacks of other six countries against Qin, ensuring the stability of King Wulie of Qin. It was in these victories that Qin began to become stronger step by step. Li Xin, for King Wulie of Qin, was not only a subordinate, but also a brother who could trust his life and death.

"Your Majesty, the general has passed away for a long time, so it is better to be buried as soon as possible. All the details of the burial of the general have been prepared in the court. The fourth prince has also read it. Please let the general be buried with you!" Fan Sui took a step forward, knelt on the ground, and said.

"No hurry!" King Wulie of Qin shook his head gently, "I can't stand it for a few days, so I put the general's coffin here. After I die, I will be buried together, and then buried him next to my tomb."

"This..." Fan Sui was stunned for a moment." King..."

"No need to say anything more, this matter will be done like this." King Wulie of Qin waved his hand, "I still struggled to hold on, just to wait for Meng Tian to come back and wait for Mr. Li to come back."

"Yes!" Fan Sui lowered his head," said the Han army officer who sent General Li, saying that General Wang Xiao's body would be sent back later. How to deal with General Wang Xiao's funeral?"

King Wulie of Qin was silent for a moment and said, "After Wang Xiao comes back, he will find a place to bury him. The Wang family has been imprisoned now and all of them will be sent to Shannan County City."

"Master, is this too strict? Let's not talk about Wang Xiao's past merits and demerits, but in the end he died for the country!" Fan Sui raised his head and argued.

King Wulie of Qin ignored Fan Sui, but turned his head with some difficulty and looked at Ying Ying, "Wang Xiao is my great Qin family. This time, the only one who was imprisoned is Wang Xiao's immediate relative. After I die, you ascend to the throne. The first thing you do is to order Wang Xiao to be pardoned and buried him in a different place. Do you understand what I mean?"

Ying Ying and Fan Sui's bodies were shocked, and they looked at King Wulie of Qin incredibly. King Wulie of Qin had a wry smile on his lips: "I'm going to die, a dying person, not afraid of others saying I'm stupid or harsh, but you are different, Ying Ying, you are different from me. I have been in power for decades and have always ruled by Iron Bowl. After you ascend the throne, you must be polite. As long as no one challenges your royal power and rule, those who can tolerate should try to tolerate it as much as possible until you feel that I can control the court."

"Son understand!" Ying Ying said in tears.

"Zhou Yu and Tan Feng control the 100,000 army. These two have no foundation in the Qin Dynasty. All the generals under their command are our Qin army generals. They do not have the ability to influence the affairs of our Qin Dynasty, so they can only rely on you closely and rely on the royal power of our Qin Dynasty to show their backs. Therefore, these two people can trust. Lu Chao needs no need to say that you have worked with him for a long time. This person has a deep gap with the King of Han Gao Yuan. Here, it is not only Gao Yuan who uses his mother to seize it.

The contradiction of getting Shannan County and causing him to be imprisoned is that Lu Chao doesn't want a person he has looked down upon since childhood to be above him. Therefore, what Lu Chao wants most is to lift Gao Yuan off the horse and step on it hard. Lu Chao is above the military. After years of hardship, he has become quite mature. Although he cannot compare with Li Xin's overall view or Meng Tian's calmness, he is no less than these two people in the use of tactics, and can also be reused."

"I remember it."

"These two troops are the current force of the Great Qin Dynasty. In the year you come back, you have been firmly in control of the 30,000 Xuanyi Guards in Xianyang. Remember, this army must not leave Xianyang. I have sent Mr. Li to negotiate with the Han Kingdom. I think this time, we will have to accept many humiliating conditions. Weiying, remember, agree to all of them, endure humiliation, and lie on firewood and taste gall. I don't need me to teach you again. It will take at least ten years to revive my Great Qin and train a powerful army before we can leave Hangu Pass again."

"yes!"

"Zhongli can be trusted."

"The chief assistant Fan Sui can ask for a big deal."

"For the outside world, I will try my best to support Zhao Qi in the fight against the Han Kingdom. King Huai of Chu will definitely be afraid of Gao Yuan this time, so in a short period of time, I may fight against us. If he dares to move, then you will not move. Once you move, you will beat Chu State so that you will never dare to look west again. But you remember Ying Ying, your general strategy is to join Chu and Zhao to fight against the Han Kingdom. Because although King Huai of Chu is incompetent, Huang Xie, Qu Chong and others under his command are all very good talents. They will see the real threat of the Han Kingdom. Now any of us is no longer able to deal with the Han Kingdom alone, but if we join forces, it is stronger than the Han Kingdom."

"The son will keep this in mind."

"There are never eternal friends between countries. The interests are in harmony and the interests are in harmony. If the interests are contrary, the weapons will be in conflict. You can ask Mr. Fan Xiang and Mr. Li for more advice on how to grasp the degree in the intervening situation."

"Father, Mr. Li has formulated a national policy for my Great Qin. My son thinks it is very problematic." Ying Ying mustered up the courage, "The Jiang family has only supported the Han Dynasty for many years. The Han Dynasty has reached such a point now. If it were our Great Qin, then what?"

Hearing Ying Ying's words, King Wulie of Qin raised his hand and gently waved it, "You are wrong. The power of the Jiang family is related to the special environment in which the Han Dynasty is located. If we follow the same gourd, we are afraid that the tiger will not become a dog. The strategy of governing the country and the outline of the country should not be shaken easily. Don't look at others' good things, just think that you can do it well, remember that Luo is the best one."

Listening to King Wulie of Qin, although Ying Ying was a little dissatisfied, he did not dare to argue.

"You all go down and remember what I said today."

Everyone kowtowed and silently withdrew from the black ice platform. Standing on the high steps outside the black ice platform, Fan Sui looked at Ying Ying with some concern: "The fourth prince, the words of the king just now are the most wise sayings. The governing strategy formulated by Mr. Li of the Qin Dynasty has been for decades. From top to bottom, it has already formed its own system, and it is inconsistent and cannot be moved easily. It can be activated by touching it!"

"Mr. Fan, I remember you are not a student of Li!" Ying Ying looked at Fan Sui angrily.

"It is precisely because of this that I can see more clearly that the Jiang Family Quan and Gao Yuan's style will not work in our Qin Dynasty." Fan Sui sighed and said, "The best one is suitable for us. We cannot learn the Four Princes and the Han Dynasty style. We can only find another way to make our country stronger."

Ying Ying nodded, took a few steps down, and suddenly turned around: "Suang Fan, what will the father arrange for him after General Meng comes back?"

Fan Sui looked at Ying Ying deeply, and a strange look flashed in his eyes, "How dare the ministers guess the king's thoughts?"

Looking at Fan Sui's hurried back, Ying Ying already understood the truth that Fan Sui did not tell. (To be continued.)
