In the magnificent palace of Fahrenheit City, the capital of the Maurya Dynasty, King Asoka sat on the throne and looked at the many ministers below, and asked calmly: "How are the preparations for war?"

After the words fell, a general replied: "All the food, grass and weapons are in place, and they will be fully dispatched within half a month."

Ashoka nodded and said: "A year ago, the Big Peacock suffered a setback. This time I will personally lead you to recover the lost glory!"

The battle with Qin a year ago failed, and it was a huge defeat. Only a few tens of thousands of the remaining soldiers of the 300,000-strong army fled back in embarrassment.

As the proud Peacock King, of course he could not accept this kind of failure, and immediately ordered the reorganization of the army again and went out in person to decide the outcome with Qin!

At this time, an official hesitated for a moment and said: "The Qin State is strong, but after the last loss, the number of available troops in the country is only about 300,000.

If the Qin people rely on the city to defend, it may be difficult to defeat them. Moreover, they also have a powerful weapon designed to restrain the war elephant army, so it is better to be fully prepared before sending troops."

Hearing this, the rest of the people also nodded slightly. With their current strength, it is indeed difficult to defeat this powerful opponent. If they want to win, they may need to use some other means.

"I have already considered this matter, Moshasa, you can tell me."

Ashoka looked at an old monk below and said.

The monk named Moshasa was the one who went to Qin to preach. He said respectfully: "Although Qin is strong, it also has many enemies. These are the forces we can rely on."

Everyone's expressions changed after hearing this, and they asked: "I wonder what the other forces you are referring to are?"

Upon hearing this, the former said straight to the point: "The Yuezhi and Qiang people in the West."

"Yue clan, Qiang clan..."

The ministers' minds were moved. They had heard about these two forces. They were both ethnic groups close to the Qin State and had certain fighting strength.

Regarding this matter, I have already negotiated with the envoys of the two tribes. They are willing to dedicate at least 200,000 troops to join us and attack Qin together.

As a result, we have half a million soldiers and horses, enough to defeat the Qin army under attack from two sides!"

After hearing this, many people's eyes lit up, this suggestion is indeed a good one.

At this time, a man stood up and asked: "Given the temperament of those barbarians, they would not send troops to help innocently. What conditions did they put forward?"

Hearing the question, Moshasa nodded and replied: "After occupying the Qin Kingdom, the Yuezhi and Qiang people need to divide one-third of the land and wealth."

A minister said sarcastically: "These guys are quite greedy."

You must know that even one-third of the land and resources are enough for these two groups to more than double their power.

However, he also knows that now that he really needs the other party's strength, he can only agree first, but whether he can get these benefits in the end depends on his own ability...

A month later, the troops of the Qiang and Yuezhi tribes were all ready. According to the agreement, the two tribes put together a total of 200,000 troops.

Their population is already limited, so being able to send out so many soldiers at once is indeed the limit.

As the horn of attack sounded, an army of 200,000 troops launched an attack on the western border of Qin at the same time. No one expected that the two originally peaceful forces would suddenly invade like crazy, and people were panicked for a while.

In Xianyang Palace, Fusu frowned as he read the battle reports from the front line. During this period, his attention was focused on the south. He did not expect that the Qiang and Yuezhi would suddenly launch such a large-scale war.

Nowadays, there are only about 100,000 soldiers and horses guarding the west. It is indeed very difficult to resist 200,000 elite soldiers. In this case, we cannot rush into war.

He pondered for a moment, and then said: "As for the difficulties that Da Qin is facing now, do you have any suggestions to deal with it?"

After hearing the question, Prime Minister Feng Quji cupped his hands and said: "After the alliance between the Qiang people and the Yuezhi, the enemy's strength can already threaten the Qin Dynasty. If the defense line is breached, it may even threaten the safety of the capital.

In my opinion, more troops need to be mobilized immediately (this chapter is not finished yet!)

Chapter 322: The Peacock attacks again, the coalition of three tribes!

Go and support.”

No matter at any time, the country's top priority is not to make any mistakes, and Xianyang itself is close to the west. If something goes wrong, it will definitely cause trouble.

Fusu nodded slightly when he heard this, then looked down and asked: "Lieutenant, I wonder how many soldiers Da Qin still has available now?"

Wei Liaozi, who was standing in the first row, replied: "Your Majesty, the Qin Dynasty still has about 200,000 available troops. Apart from the soldiers guarding various regions and the soldiers and horses still performing tasks, there are probably still more troops that can be mobilized at present.

There are about thirty thousand."

Hearing this, all the kings and ministers in the palace looked solemn. The reason why the army was so short of troops was mainly because Meng Tian led an army of 300,000 to guard the south.

These 300,000 troops already account for half of the troops of the Qin Dynasty today. If we want to resolve the crisis as soon as possible, we can only use part of the troops to suppress the unrest between the Qiang and Yue tribes.

However, as a result, the guards on the southern border will undoubtedly be greatly weakened. If the Maurya Dynasty invades at this critical moment, I am afraid...

Thinking of this, he suddenly fell into a dilemma. Seeing many courtiers arguing endlessly, he could only wave his hands and said: "I will make my own decision on this matter. All my dear friends can wait for orders."

After hearing this, everyone stopped talking and resigned one after another...

Two days later, in the courtyard of Yangzhai City, Ye Zhang looked at the familiar figure in front of him and smiled: "Your Majesty has so many things to do, how come you have time to come to my place?"

He had already noticed it when the other party arrived in front of the house, so he came to the yard in advance.

Fusu walked up to Ye Zhang, slightly cupped his hands and asked, "How is the Imperial Master doing recently?"

Hearing this, Ye Zhang replied: "Everything is fine. Your Majesty is worried about me. Come in and sit down."

As he spoke, he introduced the other party into the hall.

Fusu then entered the hall, and without saying anything else, he took out the battle report from his sleeve and handed it to him.

Ye Zhang raised his hand and took it, read it carefully, then raised his eyebrows and said with a serious face: "I didn't expect those guys to collude together. It's really not easy to handle."

Fusu continued: "After years of fighting, the Qin Dynasty's vitality has not yet recovered, and now it is encountering such a situation. I don't have a solution that has both ends, so I came to disturb the imperial master. Please don't blame me."

Ye Zhang nodded and said: "It is your duty to protect your family and the country. Since your Majesty is here in person, you must have a plan in mind, so please make it clear..."
