Chapter 469: Enemies Meet
In early October of the fifth year of Taichu, Temujin died.
In the middle of the same month, the grassland forces were forced to hold on to Yanyun.
At this moment, in Xianyang city.
Daji and Yu Qian are worrying about the post-war reconstruction work.
With Ying Yuan's arrival, they all agreed that regaining the lost territory was only a matter of time.
Xuanzheng Hall.
Daji instructed the three guards:
"You must report the intelligence regarding the three grassland kingdoms to His Majesty promptly."
"If Your Majesty needs anything in retaking Yanyun, please report it back to Xianyang as quickly as possible."
"Also, tell Prince Yan about Concubine Xu as soon as possible."
Now that the lost territory is about to be recovered, she is worried that Prince of Yan Zhu Di will think that Xu Miaoyun and the others have met with an accident.
He will then do something irrational, which will affect Ying Yuan's plan to regain lost territory.
Wei Zhongxian bowed and said, "Your Majesty, do you need to let Your Majesty know more about Xin Qiji?"
In the battles against foreign races, Xin Qiji's effect was minimal, almost non-existent.
However, the spiritual power he brought to the entire Qin Dynasty is immeasurable.
If Ying Yuan knew about a person like him, he would definitely be able to make a big difference.
Therefore, Wei Zhongxian had to ask specifically.
Daji smiled and said, "Xin Qiji is a loyal man. It is only natural that His Majesty knows about him."
The Qin Dynasty is full of talented people, and it is impossible for Ying Yuan to remember everyone.
So, let him know that someone exists and what he does.
Definitely something to be proud of.
After a pause, Yu Qian on the side seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Seeing this, Daji said in a deep voice: "Master Yu, please feel free to say whatever you want to say."
Yu Qian bowed deeply and said, "I have said before that after repelling the foreign enemies, I will willingly accept punishment and face the consequences."
He was referring to the Qin Hui incident.
Daji frowned and said, "At present, our homeland has not been recovered yet, and we need to rely on you in many places. I will allow you to make up for the punishment."
Yu Qian was a great contributor to the Qin State.
If it weren't for his existence, Xianyang City would have been occupied by foreign races long ago.
It is neither reasonable nor moral for Daji to punish him.
After all, killing Qin Hui would have certain benefits for the situation at the time.
"I have already sent someone to report Qin Hui's situation to Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty can rescue Qin Hui while recovering our homeland."
"When Prime Minister Qin returns to the court, you will personally apologize to him."
That’s all Daji had to say.
Yu Qian naturally had nothing more to say.
At this time, the 300,000 elite cavalry under Ying Yuan's command had been chasing and attacking the grassland army.
They fought their way through the enemy lines and reached the city of Bingzhou in just a few days.
After careful discussion among Yue Fei and others, they planned to advance to Shuozhou from the direction of Daizhou.
At that time, we will divide our troops into two groups to recapture Yunzhou and Youzhou.
Drive the foreign races out of the Qin territory completely.
As he was preparing to march, Pan Feng received a message explaining the outcome of Qin Hui's capture.
He originally planned to tell Ying Yuan about this matter.
Unexpectedly, when the other party heard the word "Qin Hui", his eyes lit up instantly.
"I know that Prime Minister Qin is now imprisoned in Shuozhou. He is the Prime Minister of our Great Qin."
"He is the regent appointed by me, so we must rescue him."
Hearing this, Pan Feng was stunned. He thought that Ying Yuan already knew the whole story, so he nodded and said:
"I will personally lead a vanguard to attack the city and rescue Prime Minister Qin!"
In fact, until now, Ying Yuan is not quite clear about the plan between Qin Hui and Daji.
As for Qin Hui's imprisonment, he simply felt that Qin Hui failed in his attempt to surrender to the enemy and was instead killed by the enemy.
According to the folk rumors I heard in the past two days, Qin Hui controlled the government and the country and became a powerful and treacherous minister.
So, just for this reason, Ying Yuan has to save him.
Expelling foreigners is for the sake of China's orthodoxy and has nothing to do with the country's failure.
But the matter of Qin Hui...is closely related to the stupidity and failure of the country!
Must be saved!
"Your Majesty, you promised me long ago that I would lead the charge!"
Yue Fei on the side suddenly spoke.
Before the incident of Qin Hui, Ying Yuan had arranged him to be the main general in charge of attacking Shuozhou.
I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or what.
In short, Qin Hui and Yue Fei, the two enemies, are about to meet on the battlefield.
After much deliberation, Ying Yuan decided that Yue Fei was more prudent in fighting and decided to let him attack Shuozhou.
"When have I ever regretted a decision I made?"
So, Yue Fei led 80,000 light cavalry and rushed to Shuozhou first.
He marched very quickly and set up camp outside Shuozhou City in just about a day and a half.
Zhang Xian, one of Yue Fei's lieutenant generals, analyzed the current situation and frowned:
"Wanyan Aguda is in the city. If he wants to hold on to it, he will definitely threaten Prime Minister Qin's life. How can we rescue Prime Minister Qin then?"
Yue Fei fell silent.
He already had a plan in mind.
Inside Shuozhou City.
When Aguda learned that the Qin army had arrived, he was terrified.
"You said the Qin army is coming?"
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. The Qin army is far away in Bingzhou. It will take at least four or five days to march here."
"How could they have arrived so quickly?"
I thought I still had a few days of leisure time.
Unexpectedly, the Qin army attacked in the blink of an eye.
"Your Majesty, I have already found out that the commander-in-chief of the Qin army this time is a man named Yue Fei."
