The Qin Dynasty in another world.
After the death of the previous emperor, he was posthumously named Zhaozong.
The new emperor ascended the throne and changed the reign title to Chengping.
Traitors bring disaster to the country, and the government and the country are in turmoil.
Early spring of March in the second year of Chengping.
The Great Chu raised an army of 600,000 to invade the Great Qin!
We made unstoppable progress all the way.
The Qin military god Meng Chuan died in battle!
Ye Fan, the Sword Saint of the Great Qin, died in battle!
Minister of War Wu Kun died in battle!
The unrivaled general Pan Mei died in battle!
Daqin...
In this battle, the Qin Dynasty suffered heavy losses both in the government and in the underworld.
At present, there are no more heavy troops to fight the enemy.
The country is about to be destroyed!
Right now, the Chu army is stationed outside Zhicheng.
The city will be attacked soon.
And Zhicheng is the last barrier of Xianyang!
The situation is precarious!
......
now.
Inside the Xianyang Palace.
Civil and military officials stood in rows, arguing endlessly:
"We can't win... We definitely can't win! If we move south, we'll just be hanging on for dear life! The only option now is to negotiate peace!"
"Peace talks? The Chu State and we are engaged in a war of nations! They are about to capture Zhicheng. Do you think they will agree to peace talks?"
"Fighting is not an option, not fighting is not an option, moving south is not an option, and negotiating peace is even less an option. Are we going to surrender?"
"It's over! Our Great Qin has been a nation for three hundred years, fighting for six generations, yet we never imagined that we would be destroyed in this day!"
“…”
Ying Yuan, sitting high on the dragon throne, looked at their endless quarrel and felt a little at a loss.
He is a history enthusiast and enjoys reading various historical novels.
In a dream, he traveled through time and became the new emperor of the Qin Dynasty.
Coincidentally, his predecessor was named Ying Yuan just like him.
Just when his soul was reborn as the emperor, and he felt that the beginning was a dream, and he was about to reap the long-lost sexual happiness...
He suddenly inherited the memories of his previous life and also noticed the civil and military officials.
Then he gradually fell into deep thought.
He was thinking about which way he should die that would look more decent...
This is not a dream start at all, it's hell!
At first glance, the left prime minister Qin Hui and the right prime minister Cai Jing were standing in the first place.
Yan Song, the Minister of Rites, and Li Linfu, the Minister of Personnel.
Minister of Revenue Heshen and Minister of Punishment Lai Junchen.
Censor Guo Kai and Minister of Works Sima Yi.
Since the Minister of War has died in battle, this position is currently vacant.
Oh my goodness, have we disturbed the lair of the traitor?
Of course, this is just for civil officials.
As for the military generals, Ying Yuan felt that it was a blessing for his predecessor to be able to ascend the throne alive and serve as emperor for two years.
The four generals were Zhao Kuo, Liu Yu, An Lushan, and Huo Guang.
And the rest of the generals...
It’s all tears if I talk too much.
As for the provincial governors, there is no need to mention them.
Dong Zhuo, the governor of Xiliang, Zhao Kuangyin, the governor of Henan, Wu Sangui, the king of Nanzhao, and Zhu Di, the king of Yan.
The latter two were kings of different surnames.
And the eunuchs around him...
Zhao Gao, Yu Huatian, Wei Zhongxian and others were not ordinary people.
Harem...
For the time being, everything is peaceful.
However, Empress Dowager Lu Zhi always planned to rule the country from behind the scenes.
How to play with this start?
Even if Zhuge Liang came, he could only watch helplessly, right?
The situation within the country can be left aside for now.
but!
at the moment!
The State of Chu is about to attack!
When I think of the fate of those kings who lost their country in previous history.
Ying Yuan instantly felt like he had thorns on his back, was sitting on pins and needles, and had something stuck in his throat!
“The main force of the Guochao army, numbering 400,000, was annihilated by the Chu State.
But the Chu army of 600,000 suffered only 200,000 casualties!
They still have an army of 400,000!
If Xianyang City is captured, I, the emperor, will be dead without a burial place!"
Ying Yuan was really powerless in the face of the current war situation.
There's no way to fight at all.
We can only wait for the country to be destroyed.
If we move south, I am afraid these treacherous ministers will be able to firmly control the country's affairs.
By that time, he, the emperor, would be just a puppet!
"Currently, there are only 150,000 soldiers in Xianyang City. If we don't move south, Xianyang will become the last line of defense.
There are only 50,000 defenders in Zhicheng, and reinforcements must be sent.
But the key question is, who should we send? One of the four generals?
I'm afraid if they were to take control of the military, I'd be the first one to be taken down, right?"
Ying Yuan thought secretly in his heart.
This is indeed the case.
The reason why his predecessor was able to ascend the throne alive and serve as emperor for two years was because he firmly held the power of 150,000 troops in Xianyang City.
Now, if the military power is divided up, I am afraid that I won’t even know how I died.
The death of the predecessor was also quite strange, it seemed that he was poisoned...
In short, when my predecessor came to Xianyang Palace, he felt dizzy and dizzy.
When he heard the ministers' constant quarrels and voices full of a sense of crisis, his head was swelling.
I wanted to close my eyes and rest for a while.
Unexpectedly, this time he was replaced by the current Ying Yuan.
"I can't lead the army in person and garrison Zhicheng, right?
If they move south, I'm afraid something might happen to these 150,000-strong army along the way.
By that time, I’m afraid I won’t even be able to decide my own life or death.”
In such a dangerous situation, Ying Yuan really had no idea what to do.
These ministers in front of me are all treacherous and cunning.
They only think about their own interests, how could they really care about the emperor?
