Chapter 1008: Success in the East and Success in the West (I)
In the second year after the founding of the Han Dynasty, the entire continent suddenly fell into a strange silence. Last year, the mainland was full of wars and civil war in Qi. Han and Chu intervened unexpectedly, but the Han army won because it had been planned for a long time. Once the two sides clashed, After that, the Han army relied on its superior strength to sweep almost the entire Qi State, and defeated Qi's general Qu Wan and fled. Even Judu, which was finally obtained, was lost to the Han army, and was even abandoned within the territory of Qi State. He defeated Bian Rang's lone army of more than 20,000 men.
Because of the strength of the Han army, the Qi and Chu armies, who were originally enemies, joined forces. Bian Yang led the Chu army to guard the Zhangjiadian area, which was mostly mountainous. Bian Yang, who was born in the Liao people, did have a lot of experience in fighting in mountainous areas. Meng Chong's Nanye forcefully He was blocked in Zhangjiadian District and could not advance even an inch. As the Chu reinforcements arrived in Linyi and continuously launched attacks on Judu, Meng Chong was distracted and his troops were scattered, making him unable to break Bianli's impregnable defense.
On the other side, the newly formed First Army faced Tian Jingwen, and |you|you|xiao|said|updated|new|fastest|..| did not take any advantage at all. Tian Jingwen centered on Pinglu City , built a defense zone with a radius of more than fifty miles. Because of the existence of Bian Yang, Tian Jingwen had a surplus of troops, so that this defense zone did not fall behind in the face of the Han army's attack, and was as good as Meng Chong. Second, the newly formed First Army had to be constantly on guard against the Chu army in Linyi attacking the native Kunzhou, so the war situation in Qi suddenly came to a stalemate.
However, after Bai Yucheng entered Linzi, he gradually gained the trust of Prince Tian and King Qi, while Wei Zhiwen stayed in Gaotang. The implementation of the Han State's land policy here caused the people in other areas of Qi to continue to move there. After fleeing and recuperating for half a year, the people's livelihood, which was originally in decline, has gained some momentum of vigorous development.
Gao Yuan would never use Bai Yucheng's chess pieces until the last moment. If he didn't use them, he would kill them with one blow.
Another big battlefield on the mainland, the Battle of Qin and Zhao, also ceased after last year's shocking battle. The murder of 50,000 Zhao army prisoners by the Qin army once caused huge waves in the Zhao Kingdom, but under the power of the imperial court Under the suppression of the Qin army's demonstrations, there was soon no sound, and the two sides maintained a strange state of no war and no peace.
The Zhao State became a laughing stock on the mainland during this war, because the general they reused, Jing Rufeng, was later proven to be a spy of the Qin State. It was precisely because of this person's cooperation that the 100,000 Zhao army was defeated. He was brought to death and ultimately contributed to this great defeat. After Jing Rufeng returned to Qin, he was named Zhongyibo by King Wulie of Qin and served as deputy lieutenant. He was extremely prominent for a while. The traitor who was spurned by the Qin State has now become the A hero admired by all the people of the country.
But Jing Rufeng was beautiful on the outside, but he was in great pain on the inside. He re-established a family in the State of Zhao and gave birth to two more sons. After the incident was exposed, all his family members in Handan were arrested and imprisoned. However, the Zhao State court later moved to the State of Qin. Under pressure, his family had to be released, and the State of Qin sent a special envoy to welcome Jing Rufeng's family back to Qin.
But on the way, something unexpected happened. None of Jing Rufeng's family returned to Xianyang alive. It was not that someone murdered them, but that they committed suicide.
Jing Rufeng's wife is from Zhao, and his son has lived in Handan since he was a child. Naturally, he considers himself Zhao. However, the reality is so cruel. Their father buried 100,000 Zhao troops in the Great Plains of Guanzhong before leaving the city. On that day, although no one dared to attack them under the protection of the soldiers, the scolding was enough to make them feel ashamed.
The suicide of Jing Rufeng's family was an unprecedented blow to him. After this incident, Jing Rufeng resigned from his official position and left Xianyang alone regardless of King Wulie of Qin's request to stay, never knowing where he ended up.
The Qin army that attacked Wei changed its commander. Lu Chao, an old acquaintance of Gao Yuan, returned to the position. Ying Ying was transferred back to Xianyang to follow the government. After taking office, Lu Chao was so low-key that it was hard to believe that he was the former one. That iron-blooded coach.
With a snap, a black stone in Gao Yuan's hand fell on the chessboard, and the two beauties opposite made a noise at the same time, with dissatisfied looks in their two pairs of beautiful big eyes.
The one facing Gao Yuan was Ye Jing'er, and the one sitting on the side watching the battle with a big belly and occasionally attacking Gao Yuan was Ning Xin, who was already pregnant with Liujia.
"What's wrong?" Gao Yuan looked at the two of them and asked in surprise.
Ye Jing'er sighed, "Brother Gao, your mind is not on this chessboard at all. It's better to forget it and not play any more. See for yourself, as soon as this sunspot falls, you will move your big chess piece." One of the two original eyes of the dragon was killed, and the whole dragon is dead. Fortunately, Xin'er has done so many wonderful tricks for you before."
When Gao Yuan watched intently, as Ye Jing'er said, he couldn't help but smile and threw the rest of the chess pieces in his hand into the chess jar, "We lost again, but it doesn't matter. There is a big difference in our chess skills. "
"Brother, your chess skills have improved a lot in the past year." Ye Jing'er shook her head and said, "You are completely absent-minded. Are you thinking about something?"
The smile on Gao Yuan's face gradually faded away, "The relationship between Qin and Zhao is too peaceful. It's too weird. It's hard for people to guess and understand. In the past few days, I've been feeling frightened, as if something big is about to happen." It happened, but I can’t find the sequence.”
"Tianci hasn't figured out the situation over there yet?"
"How easy is it to find out the situation in Qin?" Gao Yuan sighed: "Qin's system is completely different from ours. It is extremely difficult to sneak a few people there. But it is easy for their Black Ice Platform to dig intelligence from us. In the past six months, the Supervisory Office has arrested hundreds of spies from the Black Ice Platform, but you catch them here, and they send more."
"Who made your policy of governing the people so lenient, brother?" Ning Xin smiled and said: "If we learn from Qin's system of baojia and lianzuo, I guarantee that we can also govern the country like an iron barrel."
"This kind of "The court will be happy with this method, but the people will not. From the perspective of the short term, it is beneficial, but from the long term, the disadvantages far outweigh the advantages. I will not do it." Gao Yuan shook his head and said, "We should take a long-term view and not be blinded by the immediate benefits. Moreover, the national policies implemented by our Han country over the years have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. If we change them hastily, it will only arouse the dissatisfaction of the people and cause more trouble. Tianci has been trying hard to find out the intelligence of Qin, but there is very little that is really useful. Although some of them seem very important, I am afraid that many of them were deliberately leaked by the Qin people. It is a big project to confuse people and to distinguish the truth from the false."
"It's a pity that I can't help now!" Ning Xin stroked her belly and said softly.
"Come on, sister Xin'er, don't even think about it, just stay in the palace! Let the men do these things." Ye Jing'er hurriedly stopped her.
"What can only men do? I don't think so!" A crisp voice came from the parade ground. It was Helan Yan. She was riding on a horse, holding Mingzhi in her arms, and beside her, the three-year-old Zhiyuan was riding on a pony. At such a young age, he was already After riding properly, the two of them just came back from a circle and happened to hear Ye Jing'er's words.
"You can't listen to good words, but you heard what I just said!" Ye Jing'er waved her hand and scolded her with a smile: "Go ride your horse!" As Helanyan often took Gao Zhiyuan to ride horses, Ye Jing'er now let it go, and Gao Yuan also took a laissez-faire attitude, and it seemed that Gao Zhiyuan had learned something. Not only did he ride well now, but his body was also very strong.
Helanyan giggled: "I can do what men can do, and I can do what men can't do." After saying this, he whipped the horse whip lightly, and the horse sped forward. Seeing the two people speeding up, Ye Jing'er couldn't help but get anxious, and winked at He Weiyuan on the side. He Weiyuan immediately understood and ran over. If Zhiyuan fell down due to the speed of the horse, it would be no joke.
"Yanzi is right, at least she can give birth to children, which men can never do." Ning Xin teased on the side.
After hearing this, Gao Yuan couldn't help laughing even though he was worried at the moment.
"Are you worried about Qin's tricks?" Ye Jing'er asked.
"Yes, The war between Qin and Zhao had just ended, and Qin won a great victory, but it stopped fighting. After taking Hedong, it did not take any further action. This was not in line with Qin's habits. Moreover, Lu Chao in Wei was too quiet, so quiet that it made people worry. Something must be wrong when something is out of the ordinary!" Gao Yuan reached out and patted his head, "How can I not be worried?"
"Brother, are you worried that Qin will attack us?" Ye Jing'er put the chess pieces on the chessboard into the chess box one by one and closed the box.
"Yes, Zhao has collapsed after this battle, and I am afraid there will be no chance to recover. Now Qin The only enemies of the country are our Han and Chu. Maybe in the eyes of King Wulie of Qin, our Han is a soft persimmon compared to Chu. Moreover, this time, the 100,000-strong Zhao army was surrounded and annihilated, and Meng Tian's army also appeared. What does this mean? It means that Qin and Chu have reached some kind of agreement, and they want to work together to deal with our Han."
"Is it so serious?"
"The Chu people have already begun to compete with us for Qi, and Tianci has also heard some news from Chu, confirming that the Qin people's secret envoys have indeed been to Yingcheng, and not long after, Chu Taiwei Qu Zhong went to Qu Wan's place." Gao Yuan looked up, "Two powerful countries in the world, hehe, they look up to me, Gao Yuan. Chu people have already taken action, what are Qin people waiting for?"
The Qin people did not wait, Shannan County, Qin people have already taken action. Wang Xiao stood on a small hill, looking at the battlefield in the distance, the Shannan County Guard General Feng Fayong's central army flag surrounded by the Qin army, and laughed: "Feng's little boy, dare to compete with me, hahaha, today I will let you know the power of my Qin army!"
