Chapter 503: Nearly 40, but the passion remains
March, the seventh year of Taichu.
Qin's food and baggage have been replenished.
After several months of rest, it is now a complete army with high morale.
As for the State of Qi, it had indeed sent more troops to Sun Wu.
However, those troops are still on their way.
As for Li Shimin, things were pretty much as expected.
Including the newly recruited soldiers and the troops of the feudal lords, the total army was about 700,000.
The Qin-Yan war reached this level.
Anyone with talent can see that the real decisive battle is coming.
This battle will determine who will be the future overlord of all nations.
If Yan defeats Qin, it can take the opportunity to ally with Feng and drive Qin out of Jin territory.
If Qin defeated Yan, Qin's territory would be expanded again.
The growth of its national strength will be difficult to stop.
At this moment, the whole world and all nations are paying attention to this battle.
Inside Xianyang city.
Daji ordered all court departments to put aside everything they were doing for the time being.
Make every effort to produce weapons, armor, shields, arrows and other supplies needed for war.
Every day, food, fodder, armor and other supplies were shipped from Xianyang or other towns to Yan territory.
Even though the war did not spread to the Qin mainland.
However, everyone inside and outside Xianyang City, from the literati and officials to the common people, was contributing to this battle.
For example, donating money and food, which are mostly spontaneous behaviors.
For a time, the whole Qin government and the people worked together.
It's like fighting a great war.
As a result, Ying Yuan's army did not have to worry about shortages of supplies and other items at all.
The so-called war is actually a competition of overall national strength.
At this moment, the operation of the Qin state machinery and its overall national strength were clearly displayed to the world.
It shocked the world.
Inside the Xuanzheng Hall.
After Daji heard what Heshen said about the situation in the Ministry of Revenue.
Also let out a long sigh.
He stared at Qin Yan's feng shui map for a long time and was speechless.
I don’t know how long it took.
He Shen seemed to see her worry and said comfortingly:
"Your Majesty, you don't need to worry too much. Your Majesty has never lost a battle since he took command of the army."
Daji nodded and said, "Of course I know that Your Majesty is brave and unparalleled, but I am always worried."
"Even when Your Majesty was on the grassland expedition, I have never felt as uneasy as I do today."
At this time, the voices of Ying Ying, Ying Chuan, Ying Ye, Ying Wu, Ying Hua and Ying Ruoyi were heard outside the hall.
In the blink of an eye, even the youngest, Ying Hua and Ying Ruoyi, are already four years old.
As for Ying Ying and Ying Chuan, they are both thirteen years old.
Hearing the noises of the brothers and sisters playing and making noise, Daji was not angry.
Instead, he came to the front of the palace gate and looked at a few children following Ying Ying, wandering around or playing.
At this moment, He Shen was standing behind Daji. He looked at the princes and princesses and could not help but flatter them and said:
"Your Majesty, the eldest prince Yingchuan is both talented in civil and military affairs, and the brothers are harmonious. This is a blessing for the royal family and the country of Qin!"
Hearing this, Daji smiled and said, "Your Majesty said that what he admires most is your mouth. I have witnessed it today."
"It was just a few naughty kids playing pranks, but you turned it into a blessing for the country."
He Shen smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Majesty, I firmly believe that with Prince Chuan here, our Great Qin will prosper for at least another thirty years."
Daji shook her head and said, "Okay, don't say such things anymore in the future."
After a pause, she continued, "Chuan'er is almost fourteen years old now. It's time for him to be conferred a title."
"Time flies so fast. It has been seventeen years since Your Majesty ascended the throne."
"And Your Majesty has already reached the age of forty."
In this era, no matter who you are, when you reach the age of forty, your health starts to decline.
Some people even start to call themselves "old man" at this age.
When Daji said those words, she was lamenting the ruthlessness of time, and also lamenting that even her husband, the unparalleled hero in her mind, had passed away.
You will get old one day too.
As long as you are human, it is always unavoidable.
After hearing that, even He Shen became serious and said:
"I can only blame my Great Qin for having such a weak foundation at the beginning."
"Otherwise, with your majesty's wisdom and intelligence, I'm afraid you would have pacified the world long ago."
Daji sighed and said, "If Your Majesty were still at the same age as when he fought against the tyrant Xiang Yu of Chu."
"Perhaps I won't be so worried."
"In short, after your majesty returns victorious this time, don't let your majesty lead the army to war again."
"Your Majesty has worked hard for many years. It's time to take a break."
It's not so much worry.
On the contrary, Daji felt sorry for Ying Yuan.
Since becoming the Emperor of Qin.
Ying Yuan seemed to be either making plans or on the way to doing things.
Even during the more leisurely time in the Zhaixing Tower.
She believed that Ying Yuan was still using the world as a chessboard to make his moves.
My mind and body hardly had any rest.
Now, Ying Yuan has grown a beard and has white hair, and his physical strength has reached its peak.
After the summit, it’s time to head down the mountain.
Daji doesn't want the hero to grow old.
It is enough to let the world remember the glorious and brilliant first half of Qin Emperor Ying Yuan's life.
If you suffer a major defeat due to physical reasons, what will the world say?
