I’m The King Chapter 1057: : East and west (fifty)


Meng Tian glanced at Zhongli, and said calmly: "Just know it in your heart, now is not the time to deal with him. Besides, this matter has to be viewed from both sides."

"Fleeing in front of the battle, abandoning the main general, my general has not produced such a general in so many years!" Zhong Li said coldly: "Meng Tian, ​​you are leading an old soldier, and you actually excuse him?"

Meng Tian smiled: "Now is not the time. But when Yu does this kind of thing, he must be very panic in his heart. He must be suspicious, and there is a possibility that there will be a catastrophe. Where is he now? , in Shannan County, if we move him now, what if he doesn't do anything, keeps running away with his cavalry or surrenders? Then Shannan County will be over, if Shannan County is lost again, He Lanxiong can go straight to nine Yuan, do we have enough troops to defend Jiuyuan now? So Shannan County is now an iron gate, guarding our backyard. Qianqibing saved Qin Bing's vitality. When the overall situation is stable, he will be transferred back and calmly find another excuse to deal with him."

Zhong Li was silent for a while, then nodded, "You are right. But when I think about it, I feel tired."

"You've never done any dirty things in the Black Ice Terrace. What's that?" Meng Tian said with a cold smile. General, now our Daqin generals have suffered heavy losses, for someone like him, we should first use his talents and punish his crimes."

Zhong Li waved his hand, "But we don't need to talk about the matter of Yu anymore. After we go back, let's see how the king will deal with him! Meng Tian, ​​since you have decided to leave with me, then make preparations early. Lu Chao will come and hand over to you in three days."

"Are you in such a hurry?" Meng Tian asked.

"It's not that I'm in a hurry, it's that the king won't be able to wait for long!" Zhong Li's expression darkened.

The two were silent for a moment, Meng Tian filled the wine glass, raised it high above his head, bowed towards Xianyang, and drank it down with his neck raised, "Although I don't agree with the king, the king's life He has never really trusted me, but this does not prevent me from admiring him as the wisest monarch of Daqin for so many years.”

Looking at Zhongli, Meng Tian continued: "Although I have a lot of dissatisfaction in my heart, but for the sake of Daqin, I am willing to accept his arrangement and return to Xianyang. Whether it is life or death, the king will decide with one word. It is worth it." When the Great Qin is in crisis, I will not let our Great Qin have any more problems, Zhongli, don't worry, my subordinates will not cause trouble, I will let them accept this arrangement."

After listening to Meng Tian's words, Zhong Li stood up and bowed to Meng Tian.

In Anlu, the important town of Yuyang, Lu Chao looked at the dozens of generals standing in the tent, with a serious face. Just a day ago, he received a military report and a new appointment from Xianyang. Li Xin was defeated. The news shocked him. The destruction of the 100,000 troops meant that Qin would change from a strategic offensive to a strategic defense, and his army, which had penetrated into the Han territory, had to retreat.

Since he invaded the Han territory, he has been invincible all the way, beating the opposite Zeng Xianyi back again and again. Now in the whole Yuyang, only Yuyang City is still in Zeng Xianyi's hands. If it wasn’t for the two infantry troops from the Young Guards Corps of the Han Army arriving, maybe Yuyang City is his now too.

"Retreat? Why do you want to retreat?" Gou Yi shouted: "General, since General Li failed on the grassland road, we should move forward bravely and achieve greater victories to make up for the grassland road. The above losses. We took Yuyang with great difficulty, how could we give it up to others so easily!"

"Yes, General, there are only 30,000 to 40,000 Han troops in front of us, cheer up and take Yuyang City in one fell swoop, so as to comfort General Li's spirit in the sky!" All the generals in the tent echoed Gou Righteousness. Under the excellent form, at least on their battlefield, the form is extremely beneficial to them.

Lu Chao looked sullen and glanced at the crowd, "Bai Qi, tell me!"

Bai Qi took a step forward and said: "The general thinks that the general's decision to retreat is correct. Now is the best time for us to retreat. If we miss this opportunity, we may retreat in the future. Pay a higher price.”

Lu Chao raised his face slightly: "How do you say this?"

"General, we are in Yuyang now. It is true that we are superior in form, but it is not the case in reality. Luliang Mountain blocks our way into Hejian, and we cannot take down Yuyang City, nor can we threaten it. Tianhe County, more importantly, now we don't have the power to threaten Tianhe County, but we have to guard against where the enemy comes from. Now we go deep into the enemy's territory, and behind us, it is hard to say whether Zhao Guo is an enemy or a friend. Zhao Qi originally It's just a capricious temperament. Now he is besieged on all sides in the country, and the hostile forces in Zhao State are not small. If Zhao Qi is forced by these people and turns against us, and we are attacked by the enemy, then it will be uncomfortable. We must take advantage of it The Zhao people have not reacted yet, so they quickly withdraw their troops. At least, we have to control the Zhao country, and it is serious to get compensation from the Zhao country.”

Lu Chao nodded, "Gou Yi, did you hear that? What Bai Qi said is the truth. Only when you get the benefits can you get the benefits. No one will do it if you exchange the unknown benefits for the benefits that you can easily get." This kind of thing. In the next retreat, you and Bai Qi will unite the armies and retreat together. You will retreat all the way across the Yishui River and directly attack the State of Zhao. Open up a passage for me to Shanggu, Daijun, and Hedong. These places are connected together, and if General Li failed in the grassland, then we will include these places in Zhao State into our Daqin territory."

"Follow the order!" Bai Qi and Gou Yi embraced the order together.

"Before I left, I destroyed everything that could be destroyed in Yuyang County. The houses were burned, and the city walls were demolished. Especially the mine in Anlu, I destroyed and sealed it up." Lu Chao stood up eagerly: "Isn't Gao Yuan very good at making money? I want to see what you can come up with to fill this vacancy this time."

"That person, do you want to kill him?" Bai Qi whispered.

Looking at Bai Qi for a while, Lu Chao suddenly laughed: "Bai Qi, you killed the Zhao people in Changping, right? These Yuyang people, of course, can't be killed, all of them are left to me , These people want to eat, live, and live, and these big burdens are left to Gao Yuan, doesn’t he love the people like a son, doesn’t he hide wealth from the people? Well, let him have a headache this time!”

Listening to Lu Chao's murderous words, all the generals in the tent laughed. This time they entered Yuyang, and they grabbed a lot of money. Just as Lu Chao said, the people of Han are indeed very rich. But now the wealth is theirs.

"General, Bai Qi and I will each unite the army, are you going to leave early?" Gou Yi stepped forward and asked.

"I have received the king's edict, ordering me to rush to Daliang of Wei State immediately, where I will take over the position of General Meng Tian." Lu Chao stood up.

There was a moment of silence in the house, and after a short period of silence, there was a burst of cheers. Lu Chao's succession to Meng Tian meant that Lu Chao's position would be taken to another level. The generals will naturally go up.

Looking at the cheering generals, Lu Chao's face was not happy. He had a piece of news, but he didn't tell all the generals clearly, that is, King Qin Wulie was about to die.

The pillar of Zhitian is about to fall, and recalling Meng Tian is nothing more than preparing for what happens next, but how can he tell these people about this? They may not be able to hold their breath.

"Let's take action!" Lu Chao stood up, "Don't procrastinate."

In Yuyang City, Du Shenghao waved his fists and roared at Yang Dasha. Yang Dasha's face was covered with veins and scars were throbbing constantly, looking extremely hideous and terrifying. On the other side, Zeng Xian sat in a corner without saying a word, while Guan Bo, the commander of the Second Young Guard Army, stood between Du Shenghao and Yang Dasha, fearing that Yang Dasha would be impulsive and punch the skinny man. The governor of Yuyang was knocked down, with Yang Dasha's vigor, it is possible to send the governor directly to the west.

Now in Yuyang County, Du Shenghao is the leader in political affairs, but Yang Dasha is respected in military affairs. All military operations must be counted by Yang Dasha nodding.

In the past two days, there have been many wars in Yuyang County, and the Qin army has been raging everywhere, looting, and setting fires. According to the scouts sent out, basically all the surrounding areas of Yuyang have been robbed, and one village after another Burned down, one town after another was razed, and the people had no homes and no food to eat.

"Being an official does not make decisions for the people, and a soldier does not fight for the country, what use are you for?" Du Shenghao roared, his thin arms fluttering, his fingers almost poking Yang Dasha's nose, "Wave after wave of information shows that the Qin army is retreating. This is their last madness. They are harming the people, the people of my big man, but you ordered the army not to go out of the city to fight and chase. What do you want to do? I want to join you in this book."

Yang Dasha had a sullen face, he knew who the enemy he faced was very clear, this was an opponent that even the king attached great importance to, the general Naba of the Han army died at the hands of this person, apart from Feng Fayong, This is the highest ranking general of the Han army that has been killed in these years. He and Lu Chao's army also fought against each other outside the Mashaping Canyon. Although he won this battle, the fighting power of the Qin army is that of Yang Dasha The most tenacious team I have ever met in 2019.

Facing such an opponent, how dare Yang Dasha be careless. Although he is called Dasha, he is not really stupid. If there is no trap waiting for him behind Lu Chao's last madness, then he will It's not that the road is too fast.

"Are you done scolding?" He looked at the panting Du Shenghao.

"It's still far away. If you don't send troops for a day, I will scold you for a day. You eat the food provided by the people of Yuyang County for nothing, but hide in the city and dare not fight the enemy. You are in vain. Skin." Du Shenghao snorted.

"Okay, since you're tired, let's take a break before scolding." Yang Dasha turned his head to look at Guan Bo and Zeng Xianyi with a cold face: "Without my order, one soldier and one Death is not allowed to leave Yuyang County."

Fifty miles away from Yuyang County, Lu Chao watched another wave of scouts rushing towards him.

"Is there still no movement in Yuyang County?"

"Back to the general, no! No soldier has ever left the city." The sentinel said loudly.

Lu Chao couldn't hide the disappointment on his face, "It is said that Yang Da is irritable and impulsive, and it seems that it is just an appearance. This person is much more difficult to deal with than outsiders think. It is a pity. When I left, I gave them a hard meal, I never thought that this guy would not be fooled. Forget it, tell Bai Qi, Gou Yi, retreat!" (to be continued)
