In Xianyang in October, there is a strong chill in the air.

In addition to the chill, the residents of Xianyang were decorated with lights and their faces were filled with joy. Especially the children at home were even more happy and could eat sweet wheat candy.

The Qin State takes October as the beginning of the year, representing the beginning of the new year.

This fashion did not form a tradition of celebrating the Spring Festival in later generations, but people's days are still fun to celebrate the new year.

In Xianyang City, there was joy, but even though the Shaofu sent someone to arrange it carefully, the slightly solemn atmosphere here did not change at all.

"Xiong Qi rebelled and surrendered to Chu State, and Li Xin died in battle."

In the palace of the convention hall, Ying Zheng sat in the main seat, with no expression on his face, hiding his inner anger very well.

Only those who are extremely careful with Ying Zheng can discover the ruthless light flashing in Ying Zheng's eyes.

Wang Wan, Li Si, Wei Liao and a few trusted ministers knelt on both sides, with a serious expression and frowned at the news in their hands.

The messenger sent back by Meng Tian explained everything.

It turned out that Xiong Qi would really choose to betray Qin.

Li Si rubbed the bamboo slips in his hand and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Changping Jun Xiong Qi at least had the blood of the Chu royal family, but he didn't expect it to be so stupid. Today, the strategic situation of Qin's elimination of the six countries is becoming more and more obvious. Xiong Qi betrayed Qin at this time is like jumping off a big ship and boarding a decayed ship that is about to be silent.

That's right, in Li Si's mind, the State of Chu has long been corrupt and is not worthy of his loyalty to it.

"King, General Li died in battle, but the Qin army did not suffer any major losses. They just need to choose another chief general."

Li Si made a statement and broke the silence in the hall.

Xiong Qi served as the left prime minister for many years and had some more or less friendship with Wang Wan and others, but he was somewhat inconsistent with Li Si.

Li Si was born into a little official Cai. In front of Li Si, Xiong Qi always unconsciously showed a sense of superiority that only the nobles of Chu State had.

This made Li Si very unhappy. Because of this, the two people of Chu have almost no contact over the years.

"With Meng Tian's ability, there should be no problem in defending the defense line in Chenying." Wei Liao, the national magistrate, continued, "There are many vassals in Chu and cannot withstand long-term wars."

In the battle against Chu, Wei Liao tended to choose a safe way, choose Wang Jian, and commanded the superior forces to attack and destroy the Chu State. Now the Qin army is not good at going forward, so he hopes to ask Wang Jian to come out again.

Compared to when he first arrived in Qin, Wei Liao was no longer a rookie who had just entered the Qin court, but grew up to be a real military tactic. A real military tactician cannot just understand military tactics.

Wei Liao leaned towards Wang Jian, but would not say it. The Wang family's father and son made too much contribution and needed balance in the army. He would not recommend the Meng family. Not to mention that Meng Wu's old injury recurred and was recuperating, Wei Liao had to take the initiative to avoid suspicion just because Meng Tian was his recommender.

"The National Guard is right. As long as the war launched by the State of Chu is not good, the vassal below will put pressure on the King of Chu over a long time." Wang Wan understood that the battle to destroy Chu had to continue, and decisively cut off the friendship with Xiong Qi's colleagues, "I hope the king will continue to send troops to fight against rebellion."

Xiong Qi fled to Chu State, and Qin State had another reason to attack Chu State: to contain the rebels of Qin State.

"In addition to continuing to send troops, we have to send people to Qi State to stabilize King Jian of Qi."

Yao Jia, the director of the pedestrian department, touched the three-inch short beard under his chin, and his eyes kept turning.

Yao Jia's face was not good. If he hadn't been in the court and walked on the street, he would have attracted suspicion from the Qin officials. Han Fei wrote a letter saying that he was the son of the inner prison and had a rat. It is true.

Seeing that Ying Zheng had no intention of stopping him, several trusted ministers became more and more relaxed as they spoke, and soon formed a response plan.

Continue to increase troops to the front line, send people to carry a lot of money to buy important officials of Qi.

During the discussion, the eunuchs in the palace came in to replace the charcoal fire, and the warmth in the hall became even stronger.

Ying Zheng picked up the bronze triangle cup and tasted the warm soup specially prepared by Xia Wuqi, a warm feeling rose from his heart.

Most of the gloom that was unfavorable to go out on the front line disappeared.

The core team of Qin when he unified the six countries, in terms of the entire Chinese history, his quality can undoubtedly rank among the top few.

The core leader Ying Zheng, the military strategist Wei Liao, Li Si, who provided advice, Wei Lin, Wang Wan, who arranged local logistics, Yao Jia, and Wang Jian, who led the troops to fight.

Behind the veteran Wang Jian, a large number of generals who are good at fighting followed closely.

Thinking of Wang Jian, a trace of complex and inexplicable emotions flashed through Ying Zheng's heart.

Wang Jian used his troops to win almost every battle and destroyed Zhao, Yan and Qin troops in succession, which suffered losses were much smaller than expected.

When the Qin army returned, Wang Ben followed the situation to attack the Wei Kingdom and attacked Daliang. The casualties were only a little more than those of attacking Han.

But in this way, the Wang family and his son made great contributions to destroying the Three Kingdoms in succession.

Ying Zheng did not have the idea of ​​hiding the birds and hiding the bows, but he had to take precautions in advance. Otherwise, when that day really came, it would harm the Wang family and his son.

With this idea, Ying Zheng made all his efforts to promote Li Xin as the leader of the attack on Chu.

When Li Xin came to power, Wang Jian could see clearly and followed the trend and proposed to return to Lao Pinyang to recover from his injuries.

If Wang Jian was still in Xianyang, Wang Jian must be missing in this discussion anyway.

"General Li died in battle, but failed to detect Xiong Qi's conspiracy, and he was eventually dereliction of duty and his title was removed."

After a long time, Ying Zheng put down the triangular bronze cup in his hand and slowly spoke, "I'll order Li Chao to lead 50,000 troops to go to Chen County to reinforce."

It seems that the king did not completely neglect the Li family.

Several ministers in the palace thought to themselves that Li Chao, as Li Xin's son, was working as a doctor in the palace. Li Chao led his army to the battlefield, and that he could avenge his father and make meritorious service, it would only take time for Li Xin to get back the title of Li Xin.

"The king is wise!" Li Si took the lead and said loudly.

Li Xin died in battle. According to the Qin military merits and titles, he would be punished if he had any mistakes. There was nothing to say. Ying Zheng specially ordered Li Chao to make merit on behalf of his father, giving him a huge opportunity to easily get the gratitude of the Li clan.

"The reinforcements have been confirmed, but the candidate for the chief general has not been decided yet. What are your ideas?"

Ying Zheng's eyes slowly swept across everyone and finally fell on Wei Liao.

The Qin State conquered the six countries, and the strategic design was handled by Wei Liao, and he almost never took any detours.

In Ying Zheng's mind, Wang Jian is a reassuring general, while Wei Liao is an admirable master of strategy.

Accompanied by Ying Zheng's gaze, everyone in the hall looked at Wei Liao.

After Wei served as the National Guard, he gradually improved his status as the National Guard and now he can discuss matters with all the ministers. There may be conflicts of interest between departments, but Wei Liao's ability was recognized by the Qin court.

Feeling Ying Zheng's gaze, Wei Liao's mind quickly thought. According to his true thoughts, he should recommend Wang Jian, and the Qin army would be invincible.

"It must be six hundred thousand."

Thinking of Wang Jian's insistence on asking for 600,000 troops, Wei Liao had a headache again.

"Are you insist on military considerations or consider Ying Zheng's inner thoughts?"

Wei Liao's heart was in a struggle.
