July 16, the second year of Chengping.
There was heavy rain in Weinan area.
Here, a classic battle that will be passed down to later generations is about to break out.
This is the Battle of Weinan.
at the moment.
The enemy troops were divided into two groups.
All the way to Weinan.
Attack Zhicheng all the way.
In this battle, not only the enemy and our armies are preparing for battle.
Even the imperial court was on edge.
Xuanzheng Hall.
Ever since learning that Cao Cao was going to have a decisive battle with the enemy, Ying Yuan has not had a good night's sleep.
He finally understood that in the short term, Cao Cao would not do anything to hold the emperor hostage to control the princes.
On the contrary, he wanted to defeat the enemy, so he had to fight a decisive battle with the enemy.
This was very puzzling to Ying Yuan.
When did Cao Cao become considered a loyal minister?
This battle must not be won.
With over a hundred thousand troops against hundreds of thousands of enemies, it is impossible to win even if you just use your brain.
As long as we are defeated, the enemy will be able to take Xianyang in one fell swoop.
By that time, the Qin Dynasty would have surely perished!
Ying Yuan was looking forward to the outcome of this war.
On the desk, there was a map between Zhicheng and Weinan.
Even when eating, Ying Yuan was staring at the drawing.
He calculated it thousands of times in his mind, but still couldn't figure out that Cao Cao had any chance of winning.
Right now, not only him, but almost all the dignitaries in the Qin State are paying attention to this battle.
noon.
When it was time for dinner, Ying Yuan had no appetite and was still staring at the map.
The emperor didn't eat, which made the eunuchs very worried.
Zhang Rang, Zhao Gao and others were stamping their feet anxiously in front of the Xuan Zheng Hall.
Your Majesty has not had a rest for several days, and now he doesn't even eat. If this continues, how can his body bear it?
A moment later.
Daji came here and brought some food and pastries.
She asked Zhao Gao, "How is your Majesty doing?"
Hearing this, the latter responded humbly, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty hasn't eaten all day. If this continues, I'm afraid his body won't be able to endure it."
It’s not that Ying Yuan doesn’t want to eat, it’s that he simply has no appetite.
Even in his dreams, he wanted to hear the news of Cao Cao's defeat.
In this situation, how can I have the appetite to eat?
However, in the eyes of others, this scene was an expression of concern for the country and the people.
For the sake of the war on the front, one can even lose his appetite.
How could such an emperor be a tyrant?
Daji nodded and said nothing, but ordered people to bring the cakes and food into the palace.
Then, she slowly came to Ying Yuan and said worriedly:
"Your Majesty, the war ahead won't be resolved in a day or two. You should eat something. Your health is paramount."
If Your Majesty falls, what will become of the Great Qin?"
In the entire harem, only Daji could communicate with Ying Yuan in this way.
"I can't eat."
Ying Yuan shook his head. He knew in his heart that Daji was thinking about her own health.
However, as long as the outcome of the battle on the front line remains undecided, he will always feel like there is a huge stone blocking his heart.
"Your Majesty, although we have over 100,000 men against 400,000, we are at a disadvantage. However, Minister Cao has many brave generals under his command, and we also have the unparalleled general you have appointed. We will definitely win this battle.
Aren't the troops from all over the country on their way here? Your Majesty, there's no need to worry too much."
Daji said earnestly.
In fact, everyone knows that if Cao Cao is defeated, the troops from all over the country who are coming to support the king may very likely turn against him or even do something extremely treasonous.
Therefore, the key to victory or failure in the overall situation still lies with Cao Cao.
However, if the Qin army waited until the reinforcements arrived and the enemy obtained food and supplies, the Qin army would have no choice but to passively take the beating.
If you're lucky, you can just redraw the national borders.
The lost homelands can never be taken back.
It can be said that once Cao Cao was defeated, all the actions taken by Ying Yuan before to confer the title of king would be ineffective.
Hearing the sound, he became even more depressed.
If Cao Cao had won that battle, he would probably have wanted to die.
"Go out, I want to be alone."
He doesn't even want to talk now.
We can only hope that Cao Cao's army will suffer a crushing defeat.
Seeing this, Daji didn't dare to stay here any longer.
After leaving Xuan Zheng Hall, she invited Zhao Feiyan and Zhen Ji.
Let them take turns going into the palace to persuade His Majesty to have his meal.
First, Zhao Feiyan returned empty-handed.
Finally, it’s Zhen Ji again.
When she stepped into the hall, she happened to see Ying Yuan's gaze fixed on the map.
He was now like a possessed man, with nothing else on his mind, and he didn't notice Zhen Ji coming.
She walked up to Ying Yuan and heard him muttering over and over again, "How can I win?"
Hearing this, Zhen Ji felt that he must be worried about the war on the front line.
In recent days, she has heard a lot about Ying Yuan.
Only then did I gradually realize that, in fact, the other party was not a tyrant at all.
Not only that, on the contrary, he is a capable king.
His previous stupidity was just to show off to the powerful officials in the court.
That is to say, it is to defame oneself and hide one's own shortcomings.
Only now did she realize how foolish her hesitant response that night was.
In my heart, I have been blaming myself for this matter.
"His Majesty..."
Zhen Ji spoke slowly.
Ying Yuan raised his head slightly, and when he saw the other person, he smiled bitterly and said, "You are here to persuade me too, right? I have no appetite."
