The Great Wei Empire in the Warring States Period

Chapter 179



Chapter 179

Ying Quliang nodded slightly and asked: "Does the Great Liangzao want to send troops to attack Yiqu?"

"That's right!" Wei Yang replied.

Ying Quliang pondered for a while and asked: "Can the Great Liangzao lead troops to fight?"

Wei Yang smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I have studied military tactics for several years from my teacher, so I know a little about marching and fighting, so leading troops to fight is not a problem. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely succeed in conquering Yiqu!"

Gan Long stood up and objected: "It's easy for the Great Liangzao to say that, but you have never fought a war. Do you think you can fight a war? I think it's better to build the Great Wall to resist the invasion of Yiqu."

Gan Long's student Du Zhi also stood up and supported: "Your Majesty, what the senior doctor said is very right. It's better to build the Great Wall."

A group of ministers of the royal family also stood up to support the senior doctor's opinion, but Ying Quliang did not favor the people of the royal family, but asked Daoman: "General Daoman, do you think we should conquer Yiqu?"

Daoman stood up and said: "Yiqu Yiqu! Qin's biggest worry! If Qin wants to conquer the Central Plains in the future, it must solve this worry. I think Qin should attack Yiqu first! In this way, Qin's northern border can be peaceful, and then we can send troops to capture the Shangyu land of Chu. In this way, Qin's inevitable safety is also guaranteed! As long as we wait for the opportunity to change the world, we will send troops to Wei to regain the lost land! "

Yingquliang did not agree immediately, and asked Zhang Wu: "Zhang Wu, how is the training of the new army?" Zhang Wu replied: "Your Majesty, 100,000 new troops have been trained! Just waiting for your order, even if we meet the Wei army, we will not be at a disadvantage! I think we should attack Yiqu immediately! Also test the combat effectiveness of the new army!"

"Okay! This time, Daoman will be the main general of the expedition to Yiqu, and Zhang Wu will be the deputy general, leading 50,000 troops to attack Yiqu!" Yingquliang agreed.

When Wei Yang heard that the king agreed to his campaign, he continued, "Your Majesty, I think this campaign should go out of Wushi Pass and attack all the way to the capital of Yiqiu!"

Gan Longshai said with a smile, "Da Liangzao, do you think the Yiqiu people are fools? You should know that Yiqiu also has more than 100,000 soldiers, and almost all the people in the country are soldiers. If they could attack the capital, Duke Wen of Jin would have attacked it long ago! If he couldn't, do you think our Qin army can? And the land over there has no value..."

Ying Quliang interrupted, "Enough, stop arguing! This campaign is mainly to conquer Yiqiu State, there is no need to attack the city! Just teach them a lesson. "

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Just after leaving the court, a man quietly came to a tavern on the street and arrived at a side room. There was a man waiting there for a long time. The man in the room said, "The emperor has something to do."

Another man said, "The princes are rebellious."

"What's going on?"

"The Qin army has decided to attack Yiqiu."

"Really! Keep an eye on their movements!"

"Yes!"

"By the way, is there anything else?"

"Oh! Shang Yang seems to be very interested in the Shangyu land of Chu. It is estimated that he will definitely capture the Shangyu land of Chu after defeating Yiqiu."

"Yes! I see. This is your reward."

"Thank you!"

Daliang Palace

Wei Lang was eating according to the health preservation content in the "Tao Te Ching". In the past, his meals had to have the four flavors of sour, sweet, spicy and pungent. Now, in order to live longer, he has started to eat light food.

Wei Lang picked up a piece of fern and put it in his mouth. The bland taste made people lose their appetite, but Wei Lang ate it with relish.

Hui Shi, who was eating at the same table with him, smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are becoming more and more frugal now."

"Nothing else, just understand the way to keep healthy!" Wei Lang took a sip of wine and said.

Report~ "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to see you."

"Please come in!" Wei Ling picked up another steamed radish and ate it with meat sauce.

Wei Shen walked in and bowed, then took out a secret letter and said, "Father, a secret report from the State of Qin. According to my spies, the State of Qin may take action against Yiqiu in the next few days."

"Oh." Wei Ling took it with one hand, and after singing, he handed it to Hui Shi, and then continued to eat his radish.

Hui Shi read it and said immediately: "Your Majesty, we should be prepared for defense if Qin attacks Yiqu. You should know that the west of Yiqu is Shangjun of Wei. I think we should order Shangjun to prepare to prevent Qin from using it as a pretext to attack Guo!"

"Well! The Prime Minister will handle this matter."

"Yes, sir!"

Lantian Camp

After several years of training, the 100,000 new Qin troops are no longer the same as before. This army is all wearing armor, holding swords, and wearing hard bows on their waists. It is no problem to fight ten with one.

Daoman continued to train the army with a flag in his hand. Wei Yang was inspecting the camp. When he saw Daoman, he walked over and asked: "Brother Daoman, how is the army training? Do you think this army can fight the Wei army head-on?"

Daoman replied: "The army has been trained."

"However, it may not be possible to fight the Wei army head-on." Daoman shook his head.

Wei Yang was unhappy and said seriously: "Brother Daoman, you know, this army has been training for nearly ten years, how could it not be able to confront the Wei army head-on!"

Daoman smiled and asked back: "Brother Wei Yang, although our army is training, is the Wei army not training?"

Wei Yang was speechless for a moment, and then changed the subject and said: "However, although Brother Daoman did not capture a city or a place when attacking Wei this time, he also killed 3,000 heads. What do you think of the combat effectiveness of the Wei army in Guanzhong County?"

"The Wei army in Guanzhong County is very strong. The main reason why I was able to defeat the Wei army was by night attack. If it was a real head-on confrontation, I am afraid I might not win." Daoman replied.

Wei Yang was already extremely dissatisfied with Daoman in his heart. You know, this army was also trained by him personally, how could it not be able to confront the Wei army head-on! But on the surface, he said: "Brother Daoman should have some confidence. The Wei army is just like this."

Daoman still replied: "The main thing is that the Wei army did not send any generals here. If we meet Wei General Long Jia, I am afraid we will not be so lucky."

Just after he finished speaking, he found that Wei Yang had left long ago. Daoman was relieved. He planned to live in seclusion in the mountains after the crusade against Yiqu was over.

A Qin army was secretly leaving Wushi Pass and attacking all the Yiqu camps stationed nearby at night. The leading general ordered: "Kill them all without leaving a single person alive! This sneak attack not only requires us to clear the small camps of Yiqu, but also to explore the terrain of Yiqu."

"Keep moving forward!"

Just as this Qin army of more than 500 people continued to move forward, they were discovered by several Yiqu cavalrymen. While the Qin army was not paying attention to them, the two of them hurriedly fled and reported.

When the Qin army heard the noise, they were about to chase after the Yiqu people, but they had already fled. A soldier who had just fought was also quite scared. He whispered, "Centurion, let's retreat. The enemy has discovered us."

As soon as the soldier spoke, the centurion chopped off his head with a sword, and then scolded everyone, "Anyone who dares to disturb the morale of the army will be killed without mercy! Don't be afraid, keep moving forward! Be sure to explore the terrain of Yiqu!"

In the tent

After receiving the report from his subordinates, the Yiqu chief immediately ordered, "Get ready for the battle. I will personally lead 300 people to encircle and suppress this group of ignorant Qin soldiers!"
