Chapter 167 Yan Dan! City in the Clouds! The King of Qin’s edict!
Li You shook his head and replied respectfully: "I am not asking for your forgiveness for my father. I am apologizing only as a filial son."
"after all."
"My nephew knows my uncle. If my father had not done something truly unforgivable, my uncle, as a former close friend, would definitely not be so indifferent."
Hearing Li You's words, Han Fei smiled and said, "I still say the same thing. Li Si is Li Si, and you are you."
"You get up."
"Since you are here today, let's drink together."
Li You stood up slowly: "Thank you, uncle."
"Okay, no need to talk about anything else today, let's drink."
"We will set off for Yunzhong tomorrow." Zhao Feng smiled faintly.
Zhao Feng had no intention of doing anything about the bad things Li Si did.
In short, it all depends on Han Fei himself.
"Using Yunzhong as the main camp will deter the State of Yan and the State of Wei."
"Your Majesty has great talent and strategy. Setting up the camp in the clouds is truly a win-win situation." Han Fei said with emotion.
"Yes, it does have a deterrent effect."
“But once we have complete control over Zhao, when Qin raises its army to destroy Wei again, I’m afraid it won’t be my camp’s turn, and the Lantian camp probably won’t be there either,” Zhao Feng said with a smile.
"The Lantian camp has destroyed two countries in succession, and even produced a general like you. If Lantian continues to go on expeditions, how can the generals of the Beijiang and Hangu camps just sit there and watch?"
"So."
'Just be content. 'Han Fei couldn't help but tease.
"I want Wu'an's name to be true."
"Then we must fight for it."
"If we don't fight, it won't be beneficial for the military officials." Zhao Feng smiled.
Now he was only one step away from reaching the pinnacle of military officials.
"you're right."
"No matter what, you have to fight for it."
"This time, the credit for governing Zhao was earned through my efforts."
"Speaking of which."
"This is also for the king's sake of weighing the pros and cons. Wang Wan and his men may be too powerful in the court." Han Fei said with a smile.
"Speaking of which."
"When I was in Xianyang, I once said some bad things about Wang Wan and his men in front of Your Majesty."
"It was also after that that the king arranged for Hu Hai to take charge of government affairs." Zhao Feng said with a wicked smile.
Upon hearing this.
Han Fei also looked at him strangely: "You guy, if Wang Wan and the others knew about this, they would be so angry that they would die."
"Besides, these old foxes should be able to guess it."
"Aren't you afraid of their revenge?"
Zhao Feng sneered: "Revenge?"
"Come on if you can."
"After all, they recruited me themselves."
"At the beginning, I had no hatred against them, but they kept targeting me. If I don't retaliate, then I am still a man?"
Han Fei smiled and raised his wine bottle: "I like your character, fearless of everything. Come on, drink."
"Haha." Zhao Feng laughed and raised the wine cup to drink with him.
Li You on the side watched quietly, feeling a little envious as he saw Zhao Feng and Han Fei chatting and laughing happily.
…
Yan State.
Jicheng.
"Your Majesty."
"We just received information from Qin."
"The King of Qin issued another decree to establish a large camp, and this new camp is called Wu'an Camp. The general who commands this camp is none other than Zhao Feng, who destroyed Zhao." A minister from Yan said loudly.
"Zhao Feng."
"Twenty-year-old Guard Commander, General."
"My great enemy, Dayan."
"Why was this child not born in our Great Yan, but born in Qin?" A look of disappointment appeared on the face of King Yan.
Now that Zhao and Han have been destroyed, with the destruction of these two countries,
The most feared was undoubtedly the State of Wei, but the second was the State of Yan.
certainly.
Zhao Feng's reputation spread throughout the world along with his military achievements and became known to everyone in the world.
A twenty-year-old general.
This is even more terrifying than Bai Qi back then.
"Where is the new camp of the Qin army set up?" asked the King of Yan.
"Return to the King."
"The new camp of the Qin army is called Wu'an Camp, and it is located in Yunzhong City." The Yan minister who spoke earlier said with a serious expression.
"What?"
"Cloud City?"
The King of Yan's face suddenly changed. He naturally knew where Yunzhong City was located. It was the border of his Yan State and had once been a border town of Zhao State.
"The King of Qin has set up a large camp in Yunzhong City. He is clearly...clearly...targeting our Great Yan." The King of Yan's face turned pale, and he already felt a strong sense of uneasiness at this moment.
"Your Majesty, don't worry."
"Qin has no reason to send troops to our Great Yan. Qin has already accepted the misunderstandings with us in the past. If they send troops to our Great Yan, it will be without a legitimate reason and the whole world will punish them together."
A Yan minister immediately spoke up.
"I second the motion."
"No need to worry about Qin."
"I feel that although the new Qin army camp in Yunzhong is adjacent to our Great Yan, it is closer to the State of Wei."
"This move will undoubtedly deter the State of Wei."
"Your Majesty, don't worry."
"Qin and Yan are still allies. They will never betray us like that."
"Please be at ease, Your Majesty..."
One by one, the ministers of Yan tried to persuade the King of Yan to feel at ease.
certainly.
These words may be true or false. Perhaps there are people from Qin lurking in Yan State, and there are also people who do not want to make enemies with Qin for their own interests.
Listening to the words of the courtiers, even though he was extremely uneasy in his heart, the King of Yan nodded and said: "You are right, the Qin State set up a camp in Yunzhong mainly to deal with the Wei State, and it has nothing to do with our Great Yan."
"General Qing Qin."
King Yan suddenly shouted.
"I am here."
The first of the military officials stood up.
"Zhao Feng is in command of the camp in Yunzhong, and we in Great Yan should celebrate for him."
"You go to Yunzhong City in person and deliver a congratulatory gift to Zhao Feng on my behalf."
"Express the congratulations of our Great Yan." King Yan said immediately.
"I obey the imperial edict." Qing Qin replied immediately.
Now the State of Yan.
There are not many who can do it.
If there is.
Qing Qin was one of them. He was the first general of Yan State. The second was naturally Le Cheng, who once surrendered to Zhao and then returned to Yan.
Obviously.
Although Le Cheng has regained the military power, he still will not use the traitor too much.
"King Qin."
"Qin."
"As long as we make sure they have no legitimate reason to do so, Dayan can be saved."
"But we still need to send people to Qi and Chu."
"If the Qin State really dares to take the risk and launch an attack on our Great Yan, as long as the Qi and Chu States send troops to help, our Great Yan will be able to be preserved." The King of Yan thought secretly in his heart.
As a king.
Although he is not a man of great talent, he is mediocre.
Naturally, he also knew the way to form an alliance.
This time, as long as Qin can't find a legitimate reason to attack Yan, if Qin dares to mobilize troops, they can unite with the Yan State to resist Qin.
After the court was dismissed.
The bedroom of Prince Yan.
"Father."
"Your son requests to see you."
Yan Dan's voice rang out outside the palace.
Hearing Yan Dan's voice, King Yan showed a hint of disgust on his face, but he still had some reservations and said, "Announce."
"The king has ordered that the crown prince be summoned to the palace for an audience."
The monk serving on the side spoke immediately.
Yan Dan immediately strode into the hall and bowed: "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, Father."
"Didn't I ask you to reflect on your mistakes behind closed doors? What are you doing here?" King Yan frowned.
"I heard that Ying Zheng has set up a new Qin camp in Yunzhong. Isn't your father worried about this?"
"Yunzhong borders Great Yan and is a frontier city. If a large camp is set up in Yunzhong, it will have a force of 100,000. If Qin attacks Great Yan, what should Great Qin do?"
"The Qin army is very powerful. Our Great Yan is no match for it."
"Father, you should consider this early."
Yan Dan said with a worried look on his face.
"You don't need to worry about this matter."
"Back off."
King Yan frowned, waved his hand and scolded.
"Father."
"Are you really going to sit back and watch?"
"I have a great plan that can completely solve the threat to Qin. As long as my father agrees, I will implement it immediately." Yan Dan said seriously, seeming to be very confident about the plan he mentioned.
Listening to Yan Dan's words, King Yan had no intention of paying any attention to them.
How could he not know his son's abilities and personality? "That's enough."
"I want you to go back and reflect on your mistakes behind closed doors."
"From now on, you are not allowed to enter the palace without my order."
King Yan waved his hand and scolded coldly.
After saying.
Prince Yan didn't even want to pay attention to Yan Dan, and just picked up the memorial and started reviewing it.
At first, Yan Dan tried his best to persuade the King of Yan to attack Zhao and seize the city. The King of Yan believed him, but he also repeatedly warned Yan Dan that if he encountered the Qin army, he must not have any friction with them.
But what is the result?
Yan Dan was stubborn and self-willed, and he insisted on fighting the Qin army, but he was defeated miserably, and his Yan State paid a greater price.
Now the national strength of Yan State was depleted and the people were full of resentment. The King of Yan blamed all this on Yan Dan.
If it weren't for the fact that they had just been through a battlefield and couldn't make any big moves, the King of Yan would have wanted to depose Yan Dan directly.
"Father, your son..." Yan Dan's face was full of reluctance and he wanted to say something.
"roll."
Yan Dan shouted angrily and threw the bamboo slips on the table.
Seeing this, Yan Dan retreated with a look of reluctance on his face.
Prince's Mansion.
"Your Highness, what's going on?"
"Does the king agree with the prince's plan?"
A retainer of Yan Dan asked respectfully.
"My father is old-fashioned and fears Qin like a tiger. He even sent me away before I could even tell him about my plan."
"If this continues, my Great Yan will perish." Yan Dan said angrily.
You can see.
He was also full of dissatisfaction with King Yan.
In his opinion, he is the only one who can save the State of Yan today, no one else can.
"Your Majesty, you don't understand the prince's heart."
The retainer also said with a look of resentment.
"My father will not listen, but for the survival of Great Yan, this prince has to do it."
"If we do nothing and watch the Qin State continue to grow, sooner or later our Great Yan will be destroyed by the Qin State."
"Have you done what I asked you to do?" Yan Dan asked seriously.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty."
"My subordinates have already secretly recruited people and are secretly training death squads."
“It will take a year or two to see results.”
The doorman replied immediately.
"Apart from the assassins, keep an eye on Fan Yuqi."
"We must not let him leave Yan State, and we must not let him die." Yan Dan said in a very serious tone.
"Prince."
"There is something I don't understand." The man at the door looked puzzled.
"Speak." Yan Dan said.
"Why do you value Fan Yuqi so much?"
"He is just a general who defected from the Qin State. He is not very capable and does not deserve the prince's kindness over the years." The person at the door said in confusion.
"indeed."
"If we only talk about his ability, he is not worthy of this prince's support."
"But he is the one Ying Zheng wants."
"It will definitely play a big role at the critical moment." Yan Dan sneered.
"The King of Qin did issue a warrant for the arrest of Fan Yuqi, saying that whoever captures him will be rewarded handsomely. This warrant has never been issued in all these years."
"What exactly did Fan Yuqi do to make the King of Qin hate him so much?" the retainer asked again in confusion.
Yan Dan smiled faintly, but did not say clearly: "You will know later."
In his heart, Yan Dan sneered: "Ying Zheng, you are incompetent after all. Dong'er fell in love with you, but you didn't protect her. This Fan Yuqi is the one who harmed Dong'er. Don't worry, I will definitely take his life, and the same goes for your life."
…
City in the Clouds! Not far outside the city.
A military camp is under construction, with barracks, training grounds, and various training facilities.
certainly.
This military camp was built on the basis of the original Zhaobian Camp.
certainly.
Of course it needs to be expanded, otherwise it would be impossible to accommodate a hundred thousand troops to garrison there.
"Admiral."
"The camp has been under construction for more than a month."
"Now the basic barracks are almost built."
Tu Sui reported respectfully.
There was also Zhang Han beside Tu Sui.
"Have all the elite soldiers from my main camp arrived?" Zhao Feng asked.
"We have already reached the clouds." Tu Sui replied respectfully.
"Call all the elite soldiers to assemble on the parade ground." Zhao Feng said, and went straight to the reviewing platform on the parade ground.
"I will obey your orders."
Tu Sui and Zhang Han responded immediately.
Then.
The sound of assembly drums was heard in the military camp.
I saw many elite soldiers gathered in various parts of the camp towards the training ground.
On the stage of selecting generals.
Zhao Feng looked at the gathered warriors with a smile on his face.
"Military life is still suitable for me."
"A man must fight and kill on the battlefield." Zhao Feng also felt a heroic spirit in his heart.
Although he felt a sense of peace after returning home, Zhao Feng had already gotten used to it after more than four years of military life.
When all the warriors gathered.
"The general is coming to the military camp."
"Where are the Great Qin warriors?"
Tu Sui stood up and shouted loudly.
"See you, General."
All the warriors shouted in unison.
There was fanaticism in his tone.
For the elite soldiers in the main camp under Zhao Feng's command, Zhao Feng is undoubtedly the soul of the army.
Every soldier followed Zhao Feng to fight their way out of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. In the army, they only obeyed Zhao Feng.
Now that their general has become a general, they feel that this is what he should do. Moreover, let alone a general, in their hearts, Zhao Feng is even capable of being a lieutenant.
"I have been on leave for two months, and my brothers are still as powerful as ever."
"I am proud of all of you brothers." Zhao Feng raised his hand and said loudly.
"I will follow the general till death."
"I will follow the general till death..."
Waves of loud shouts once again resounded through the void clouds.
"I'm back this time."
"I believe all of you brothers have received the news that I have been promoted to the rank of Guard Commander, and I am also honored as the General."
"I command a large camp, and I have three commanders under my command."
"I command the camp, named Wu'an Camp." Zhao Feng said majestically.
"Congratulations, General."
Congratulations rang out again throughout the training ground.
"Tu Sui, Zhang Han." Zhao Feng took out a royal edict and shouted in a powerful voice.
"I will be here in the end."
Although they had received the message from their lord a long time ago, they were naturally very excited as they were about to be promoted to commander-in-chief.
"The King of Qin's edict."
"Generals Tu Sui and Zhang Han have fought for the country and have made great contributions. Now that the Wu'an camp has just been established, we urgently need talented generals to lead the troops."
"Recommended by General Zhao Feng."
"Appoint Tu Sui as the chief general, commanding the first main camp of Wu'an, and promoted by two ranks."
"Appoint Zhang Han as the commander-in-chief, commanding the second main camp of Wu'an, and promoting him by two ranks."
Zhao Sheng announced in a powerful voice.
"I thank the king for his grace."
The two generals shouted excitedly, their faces filled with excitement.
For them.
This is undoubtedly their moment of glory.
certainly.
They became even more grateful to Zhao Feng and more loyal to him.
They knew that if they had not followed Zhao Feng, they would never have been able to reach such a status at such a young age, and the position of commander-in-chief would have been impossible for them.
"Li You."
After announcing the appointments of the two, Zhao Feng spoke again in a majestic voice.
"I will be here in the end."
Li You was also wearing a military uniform. Of course, he had never been to the battlefield and did not have any military aura.
But at this moment, he was still a little nervous about being crowned as a general.
Compared to governing a county, he was still a little nervous when he came to the army this time.
After all, this is completely different from where they are used to dealing with things.
"The King of Qin's edict."
"Li You, the governor of Beidi County, is a man of both civil and military talents, and has the talent of a general. Now, I appoint Li You as the commander-in-chief of the third main camp of Wu'an." Zhao Feng announced in a powerful voice.
"I thank the king for his grace."
"I will not let the king down." Li You accepted the order respectfully.
certainly.
The elite soldiers on the parade ground looked at Li You, a new face who had been transferred from a county magistrate to a soldier, and many of them looked at him with contempt.
However, this was a solemn moment for Zhao Feng, so naturally no one dared to comment.
But when the moment comes to actually take charge of the army, whether he can truly command a main camp is Li You's own business.
After all.
He got into the main business by relying on his connections.
If you don't prove yourself through military achievements, you are bound to not convince others.
The army always admires strong people, and Li You is undoubtedly not one of them.
"today."
"The three commanders of my Wu'an camp are all standing."
"Under the commander."
"Those who hear your name, step out." Zhao Feng took out another royal edict.
Then.
He said loudly: "Wei Quan, Liu Wang, Luo Hua, Zhuang Wei."
…
Zhao Feng read out the names one by one.
All the generals whose names were called stood up with excitement on their faces.
The person who was conferred the title this time was a deputy general.
Commanding an army of 50,000 is even more important than being a general.
Without a doubt.
Wei Quan and other old subordinates who had followed Zhao Feng for many years naturally came up, and they had not done anything without merit, because they had made great military achievements, and all their promotions had traces to follow and were based on military achievements.
Even if some people are dissatisfied, they have no reason to do so.
Three words are enough to stop them.
Military merit system! Three main camps and six deputy generals.
Four of them were old subordinates recommended by Zhao Feng, and two were arranged by Ying Zheng himself.
No matter how much he trusted Zhao Feng, Ying Zheng would naturally arrange people for him in the army.
Just like Li You, he was also arranged by Ying Zheng. If the entire Wuan camp was completely controlled by Zhao Feng, it would not be beneficial to the royal power. Although he was trusted, he must be under the royal power.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Thank you, General."
Many deputy generals shouted their thanks.
Zhao Feng did not hesitate and spoke again: "Where is Kuai Pu, the former commander of the Central Army?"
"I will be here in the end."
Kuai Pu, who once served as the Sima of the main army, stood up.
He also bowed and worshipped with a serious expression.
"The King of Qin's edict."
"Appoint Kuai Pu as the military commander of the main camp, responsible for supervising military discipline and recording military achievements."
"I am directly under the command of General Zhao Feng and the Grand Secretary Liao."
Zhao Feng said in a powerful voice.
"Your Majesty, I thank you for your great grace." Kuai Pu bowed with an excited look on his face.
Although he was originally in Zhao Feng's army, his duties were different. He was the Sima of the Central Army, responsible for all matters related to military exploits, supervision, and military discipline.
But his promotion was naturally also due to Zhao Feng. If it weren't for Zhao Feng, he would not have the opportunity to become the Sima of the central army in the camp.
This position is comparable to that of a commander.
certainly.
In addition to being ordered by Zhao Feng, he is also ordered by the Shaofu. This is the uniqueness of the Sima of the Central Army, and it is the core of the King of Qin's control over the entire army.
"Under the deputy general, many brothers were promoted according to their military merits."
"The general will read it out later."
After reading out all the royal edicts, Zhao Feng spoke slowly.
At this time! "Admiral."
"You returned home to get married after taking a leave of absence, but your brothers have never had the chance to drink the General's wedding wine."
A brave warrior shouted at the top of his lungs.
As soon as these words fell.
It immediately attracted a lot of attention.
"Attending a wedding."
"Attending a wedding."
…
All the warriors on the training ground shouted excitedly.
Hearing this.
Zhao Feng had a smile on his face and waved his hand immediately.
The training ground finally became quiet.
"How can I, brothers?"
"rest assured."
"When I returned today, I had already asked people to prepare enough fine wine."
"Brothers, drink as much as you like."
"Besides the wine, there is also plenty of meat."
"Today I celebrate with all my brothers."
Zhao Feng waved his hand and laughed.
"The general is mighty."
"mighty……"
…
