Chapter 455: The Fall of Yanzhou City, the Domineering Genghis Khan
Wei Zhongxian told Daji everything Xin Qiji had done in recent days.
The latter believed that if Xin Qiji stayed in Yanyun, he would make greater contributions to the court.
"Let him recruit his own troops and if he needs anything, we will do our best to satisfy him."
Upon hearing this, Wei Zhongxian bowed and said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty."
As the saying goes, loyal ministers are revealed in times of turmoil, and strong grass is revealed in times of strong wind.
Being able to achieve this level at such a critical moment, especially behind enemy lines, is already very impressive.
The Qin Dynasty has never treated loyal ministers unfairly.
Wei Zhongxian sent the backbone of the East Factory to the Yanyun area to issue an imperial edict.
at the same time.
On top of Shangzhou City.
Temujin smiled at Qin Hui beside him and said:
"We were able to capture Shangzhou without bloodshed. You have made a great contribution. Tell me, what reward do you want?"
The strategy adopted by the bigwigs in the court was to advance step by step cautiously.
There were probably more than 10,000 defenders in Shangzhou.
With Qin Hui's arrival for peace talks, all the defenders of Shangzhou had withdrawn.
If we follow Temujin's normal attacking methods.
To capture this city, we will have to sacrifice at least 20,000 soldiers.
But now, because Qin Hui was determined to seek peace, Temujin occupied the city without any effort.
Qin Hui said humbly, "This city represents my sincerity. What do you think?"
Temujin nodded and said, "Your sincerity is good, but compared to Xianyang, this place is still not worth mentioning."
Qin Hui couldn't help but feel nervous, frowning slightly and saying, "Xianyang is the capital of the Qin Dynasty. I'm afraid it will be difficult to give it up."
"If you intend to take it by force, then this peace talk will be meaningless."
"You can take over the sixteen states without bloodshed. Why not? When the Emperor Qin returns, he won't be able to do anything about it."
"If you want Xianyang, I'm afraid the Qin people will not agree and will fight you to the bitter end."
Hearing this.
Temujin was not in a hurry to answer him.
Instead, he suddenly looked at a large eagle flying over the top of the city wall, and took the longbow carried by his follower.
He drew the bow and shot the arrow in one go.
The next moment.
As the arrow shot out, the eagle fell heavily to the ground.
In a short while, soldiers from other tribes came out of the city and took the eagle away.
Temujin handed the crossbow to his attendant and slowly spoke to Qin Hui behind him:
"How do you think I compare to the Qin Emperor Ying Yuan?"
Qin Hui hesitated for a moment, then pretended to be flattering and said, "You are an outstanding warrior, and you have ruled the grasslands. Your achievements surpass those of the ancient sages. You have expanded the territory abroad and established the grassland alliance at home."
"How can your contributions be compared to those of the Qin Emperor? In my opinion, you are a hundred times more powerful than the Qin Emperor!"
He doesn't blush when he lies.
But Temujin blushed.
He really felt ashamed.
Among all the monarchs in the world, who dares to say that his achievements are greater than Ying Yuan?
Among all the emperors of various countries, so far, only Ying Yuan has been called "the greatest emperor of all time" by the world!
You know, the Qin State was really weak before.
Other countries can defeat Qin by sending any general.
However, it has only been over ten years since Ying Yuan took control of the real power.
The Qin State seemed to be turned upside down.
Even though Temujin was very arrogant, he did not dare to compare himself with Ying Yuan.
Therefore, his next words surprised Qin Hui.
"You don't have to flatter me deliberately. I know very well that I am not as good as Ying Yuan in both civil and military affairs."
"Even though I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, I feel a sense of fear when I stand in front of him."
"So... before Ying Yuan returns, I must not only take over the Sixteen States, but also Xianyang."
"Otherwise, I really don't have the confidence to fight Ying Yuan."
Ever since the last Qin State Domination Conference ended.
Temujin seemed to have a shadow over Ying Yuan.
This was also the first time that the grassland overlord felt such fear towards a person.
Qin Hui understood the hidden meaning in his words and asked cautiously, "I wonder what exactly you want?"
Temujin smiled and said, "I want it, and I've already told you, Xianyang, and all the lands of Qin..."
"It will all become my land."
As soon as these words were spoken.
Qin Hui was horrified. "Don't tell me you don't want to agree to Qin's request for peace?"
"What good will this do you? It will only increase the casualties of your soldiers."
"Isn't it enough for you to take over the sixteen states without bloodshed?"
"You, the people of the grassland, will all be able to live on this land..."
Temujin interrupted him forcefully.
"Without bloodshed...it's really tempting."
"But for me, whether you are here or not, the sixteen states will still belong to me."
"Including every inch of your Great Qin land, I will conquer it!"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Qin Hui frowned deeply.
He never imagined that things would turn out like this today.
"Aren't you worried about going to war with the Emperor of Qin?"
Qin Hui still had a glimmer of hope.
If we can delay the offensive of the alien race.
Wait for Ying Yuan's return, then the alien races will have nothing to fear.
The premise is that foreign races must not be allowed to reach Xianyang.
Temujin laughed and said, "The only way to get rid of fear in your heart is to defeat it!"
"I will defeat Ying Yuan fairly and squarely, so you don't need to worry about it."
