Zhao Gao looked at the letter and was stunned for a moment, then he began to read:
"Your Majesty, we will attack Xinzheng City in South Korea today, and we will prepare to attack Xinzheng in the near future!..."
"According to the king's order, the nobles' grain was distributed to the people, and more than 3,000 nobles were killed. The effect was very good. At this time, the people along the way lined the streets to welcome... captured more than 70,000 people, set up prisoner of war camps, and built carriage tracks..."
"Hiss~"
"Hahaha, okay! South Korea will be included in our Daqin map soon!"
"That's it for the first battle. Our country of Qin has risen!"
“……”
All the officials were very excited at this time. Haven't they been waiting for this day for so many years?
Nowadays, the living standards of Da Qin have improved. People no longer starve to death. They are protected from illness. The cultural level is also improving. The people are living happily. It can be said that it is an unprecedented prosperous era.
It can be said that there is a lack of status at this time, the status of the Seven Overlords of the Warring States Period.
After ten years of preparation for this, there was no shortage of soldiers, food, equipment, or money, just waiting for the war to begin.
"quiet!"
When Ying Zheng on the high platform was chatting with all the officials.
"I have ordered Wang Jian to besiege and not attack Xinzheng for the time being. We will make plans in a few days. Now we have to build the carriage tracks and the school first."
"promise."
The officials were very curious, why were they not planning to capture the nearby Korean capital?
But no one came out to refute.
Everyone knows that once Ying Zheng decides something, it cannot be changed, and he will naturally have his own plans for doing so, so just follow it.
Wei Liaozi stood at the head of the officials. After hearing Ying Zheng's order, he thought for a while. He seemed to have thought of something and glanced at Ying Zheng without saying a word.
"Do you have anything else to do, ministers?"
Ying Zheng looked at the ministers below.
All the officials shook their heads slightly.
"Retreat!"
Seeing nothing happened, Zhao Gao made a duck voice.
"Farewell, Your Majesty!"
After the court, all the officials walked out of the palace while discussing.
Wei Liaozi stood alone outside the palace as if waiting for something.
After a while, Zhao Gao walked to Wei Liaozi and bowed: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister, your Majesty has invited me."
Wei Liaozi nodded and followed Zhao Gao.
After a while, the two of them came to the secret room. Zhao Gao said: "The king is already waiting inside, and I will leave first."
Zhao Gao left wisely and would not inquire about or even think about things that he did not want to hear. This is why he is now the closest person to Ying Zheng.
When Wei Liaozi walked in, he saw Ying Zheng standing in front of the table, looking at the sand table on the table with Lu Buwei and Huan Jue.
At this time, Lu Buwei had lost his haggard look and became energetic.
As a master, Lu Buwei's cultivation of the Secret of Immortality is naturally much easier than that of a person who does not know martial arts. Although it is difficult to practice the Secret of Immortality, it still shows some effect.
"Meet the king."
Ying Zheng nodded: "The Prime Minister is here and I have something to discuss with you."
"Today, the two people under Chang'an received news that the food supplies from the six countries have been almost purchased, so I am ready to attack the six countries!" Ying Zhengshou said straight to the point.
Wei Liaozi was stunned for a moment, and then he understood why Ying Zheng was not in a hurry to capture Xinzheng, South Korea today. It turned out that everything was ready, and he was just waiting for a reason to attack other countries.
"Which country are you planning to attack first?"
Ying Zheng pointed at Handan of Zhao State with the wooden stick in his hand, and said with some excitement: "I am going to attack Zhao State first."
Capturing the State of Zhao was Ying Zheng's obsession. If it weren't for Li Mu's presence, he would have suffered too much if he started a war rashly, otherwise he would have started attacking the State of Zhao long ago.
Wei Liaozi nodded in agreement: "The throat of South Korea is already in our hands. If the six countries want to unite Zonglianheng, they must enter Hangu Pass from South Korea. This is a battleground."
"Now the Qin State is too powerful to crush every country. They must unite vertically and horizontally to have a chance of winning. But this is the time the king is waiting for! Only then will there be enough reason to attack all countries."
"With Li Mu's military talent, it is natural to see that the king is waiting for him, but he must jump in!"
"Coupled with the fact that other countries will be short of food once the war starts, this war has become very easy!"
Ying Zheng smiled slightly and said: "The secret chess game on Zhao's side has been started. The evidence of Li Mu's rebellion will be sent to Zhao Wangqian at the beginning of the war. Once Li Mu is dismissed, the morale of the army will definitely be unstable, and Zhao will be destroyed." Far."
Wei Liaozi agreed very much. Li Mu is the military soul of Zhao State. Without Li Mu, Zhao State would be like losing its arm.
Then I thought that there were other countries, and after thinking for a while, I made a judgment: "The military of Wei at this time is not as good as before, and it can be crushed away."
"The king of Qi is weak and incompetent, his queen mother is in power, and there is a queen who is prime minister with some rights. If these two are dealt with, it is really possible that Qi will be persuaded to surrender before Wei and Zhao are destroyed."
"As for Chu State, I advocate consumption first. They don't have much food supply. It will take a while to attack Chu State in one go when their morale is low."
Wei Liaozi said bluntly: "Your Majesty, the prerequisite for attacking Chu is that the officials of the Chu clan of Qin must handle it well."
A large part of the Qin State were officials of the Chu family, headed by the Queen Mother Huayang. Even Ying Zheng's concubine Mi Hua gave birth to the eldest son Fusu.
Mihua belongs to the Chu State, and the eldest son Fusu can be said to have half of the blood of the Chu people.
Ying Zheng naturally knew what he was worried about and said solemnly: "No one can stop the pace of unifying the six countries. Anyone who stops will die."
In Ying Zheng's eyes, no one can stop his determination to dominate the world, including these Chu people.
Once a general achieves great success, even if a few people die to complete the great cause of unification, he will still sacrifice these people.
Ying Zheng continued: "However, we can leave some remnants and drive them to the Sui Dynasty next door and let them fend for themselves. This is the bottom line for me."
Wei Liaozi and Lu Buwei are both smart people. They know that Ying Zheng cannot cause trouble for himself because these Chu people saved some remnants, so why do they do this?
Is it to set up a bigger game?
"Huanjue, I will give you 200,000 troops to attack Chu. Use them as much as possible. They don't have much food and grass. Over time, there will be chaos!"
"The last general takes command!"
Huan Jue stood up and accepted the order with clasped fists.
"Prime Minister, you have about half a month to prepare your troops, horses, food, supplies and logistics."
"promise"
……
Ying Zheng set his sights on Lu Buwei, looked at the energetic old man, and said with a smile:
"Father Zhong, I received news a few days ago that the Sui Dynasty has begun to conquer Goguryeo. I want you to go there to cultivate your own power secretly! You will play a big role in the future."
Lu Buwei nodded, looked at each other with Wei Liaozi and looked at Ying Zheng thoughtfully.
The Chu people rushed to the Sui Dynasty and left them to fend for themselves. It would be better to let them develop. But wouldn't they become troubles in the future?
Could it be that he was paving the way for the eldest son Fusu?
Both of them had some vague guesses in their minds, and Fusu was the only explanation.
Ying Zheng laughed loudly: "Prime Minister, I want to ask you to become Fusu's teacher and start learning some strategies for governing the country."
Hearing this, Wei Liaozi stood up and saluted without saying a word: "Thanks to your majesty's kindness, I will fulfill my mission!"
At this time, Wei Liaozi felt a little excited. Ying Zheng's abnormal behavior today seemed to be to pave the way for Fusu. If Fusu succeeded to the throne in the future, he would become the emperor's master. The more he thought about it, the more excited he became.
