Chapter 210: Yan State is in fear!
Just this one sentence.
Ying Zheng understood immediately.
"You said that this was done by Yan Dan?" Ying Zheng raised the corner of his mouth.
"Besides him, I can't think of anyone else."
"After all, although the King of Yan is not a wise ruler, he is not stupid either."
"Although the assassination attempt may seem to cause chaos in the Qin Dynasty, the price would be the destruction of his Yan State. He definitely doesn't dare to take that gamble."
"On the contrary, his son Ji Dan is arrogant and thinks he can make Yan State strong, but his own ability is not enough."
"He wants to prove himself, and he wants to prove that he can protect the State of Yan, so it is not surprising that he planned this move." Zhao Feng said with a faint smile.
Jing Ke assassinated Qin.
Except for the memories of the previous life.
It also comes from the understanding of Yan Dan.
It may be recorded in history that Yan Dan assassinated Qin Shi Huang in order to save the State of Yan.
But in the final analysis.
He made a bad move.
"Think of it this way."
"This Ji Dan is indeed capable of doing such a thing."
"But your evaluation of him is quite fair."
"Self-righteous and arrogant." Ying Zheng smiled.
Zhao Feng raised his eyebrows and said jokingly, "Your Majesty, you should thank Yan Dan very much. If it weren't for him, my Great Qin wouldn't have had this legitimate opportunity to fight."
"The Wu'an Camp is guarding Yunzhong City. We cannot let go of this opportunity."
"tomorrow."
"I will set off for Yunzhong City and catch the State of Yan off guard." Zhao Feng immediately asked Ying Zheng for orders.
"We are leaving now?"
Seeing Zhao Feng asking for permission to go to Yunzhong so quickly, Ying Zheng was also stunned.
The assassination attempt just happened today, so even if we want to declare war on the State of Yan, it will take time.
Isn't Zhao Feng too impatient? "The troops are coming back at lightning speed." Zhao Feng said immediately.
"But you have been rushing here for days, don't you want to have a good rest before leaving?" Ying Zheng said with some concern.
Just because of Zhao Feng's act of saving the emperor today, Ying Zheng would definitely treat him with respect even if Zhao Feng was not his son.
Hearing this.
Zhao Feng glanced up and down at Ying Zheng with a smile on his face.
"What are you looking at?" Ying Zheng asked unhappily.
"I am not as weak as the king."
"It's just a journey of a few days and nights. I don't know how many times I have experienced this on the battlefield." Zhao Feng joked.
"You kid."
Ying Zheng was also somewhat helpless after hearing these words.
"Speed is the essence of war."
"I will set out tomorrow. It would be best if we could mobilize the army against Yan before the news reaches Yan's Jicheng."
"Hit them by surprise."
"This time, I will take credit for destroying a country." Zhao Feng said with a smile.
"As long as you can destroy the Kingdom of Yan, I will promote you to a higher rank."
"When you reach the twentieth rank, I will appoint you as a national lieutenant."
At this moment.
Ying Zheng spoke to Zhao Feng without any hesitation.
Hearing this.
Zhao Feng's expression also changed slightly.
He also didn't expect Ying Zheng to be so direct.
"It seems that my efforts to return this time were all right. I wonder how grateful the King of Qin is to me now."
"He is the supreme commander of the country and the chief of the military officials. He has made such a promise."
"Very good."
"I was promoted to a higher rank today. I am already at level 18. If I can be promoted two more levels, I will be crowned a national lieutenant."
“That’s great.”
Zhao Feng was full of excitement at this moment.
Then.
Zhao Feng had no intention of refusing: "Your Majesty, please do not break your promise. It would be disrespectful for me to refuse the honor of the national lieutenant in the future."
"As long as you can make more achievements, I will never go back on my word." Ying Zheng said with a smile.
What he likes is Zhao Feng's true nature.
He showed passion and greed for this authority.
But there is no compromise and no hypocrisy.
"Then I will remember it." Zhao Feng said with a smile.
"Do you still have that pill?"
Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Feng again and asked, with a bit of heat in his eyes.
Obviously.
Ying Zheng also enjoyed the elixir refined by Zhao Feng.
For him, a king who spent all day on government affairs, the refreshing pill was especially helpful to him.
"have."
Zhao Feng smiled.
He groped directly from his arms.
Then he took out five bottles of pills.
It was placed directly on the imperial desk in front of Ying Zheng.
"They are all refreshing pills." Zhao Feng said with a smile.
"It's enough for me." Ying Zheng smiled with satisfaction.
At this time!
"Your Majesty."
"Your Highness Li Si requests an audience."
Li Si's voice sounded outside the hall.
"Enter."
Ying Zheng said majestically.
The gentle smile he had just shown towards Zhao Feng became majestic again.
The palace door opened.
Li Si walked in slowly.
As he walked in, the palace door closed.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you." Li Si bowed to Ying Zheng.
"Stand up."
Ying Zheng raised his hand.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Si stood up straight and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, all the rebels of Yan State have been pierced by thousands of arrows and killed. No one survived. The main culprits Qin Wuyang and Jing Ke were all beheaded and their bodies were thrown into a mass grave."
“Well done.”
Ying Zheng nodded. He was naturally not surprised by this result.
"Has the news spread?" Ying Zheng asked again.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty."
"The news has spread, and the people of the city are furious."
"The people's hearts can be used, and the military's hearts are even more useful." Li Si said immediately.
"Check it out."
"Why were weapons brought into the palace?"
"All those involved have been dealt with."
Ying Zheng said coldly to Li Si.
Such a big thing happened this time.
Naturally, it cannot be determined so easily, and naturally, those involved cannot be tolerated.
Even if they did it unintentionally, they will definitely be severely punished.
After all, it was their negligence that almost caused Ying Zheng to lose his life.
These are the responsibilities of the Guards and they cannot avoid them.
"I understand." Li Si accepted the order respectfully.
"If there is nothing else, please leave."
Ying Zheng waved his hand.
He also wanted to take this opportunity to have a good talk with his son.
Having just survived a disaster, Ying Zheng was a little dazed at the moment. Apart from Zhao Feng, Ying Zheng didn't trust anyone at all.
"Admiral."
Li Si turned his attention to Zhao Feng.
"What's the matter, Chief Justice?" Zhao Feng smiled slightly.
For Li Si.
He was just a minister in the same court and they did not have a close relationship.
And because of Han Fei's relationship, Zhao Feng kept his distance from Li Si.
After all, his past methods were too disgraceful.
For his own selfish reasons, he wanted to kill his former best friend and classmate.
If you make close friends with such a person, you never know when he will cheat you.
"I wonder if Li Youke is okay?"
"I haven't heard from him in more than a year." Li Si said with some concern.
Li Si was naturally very concerned about his only son.
"He's good."
"Now I have established myself in the military."
Zhao Feng replied calmly.
I didn't deliberately add anything.
After all, Li You was not promoted based on his military merits. If he wants to gain a firm foothold, he needs to gain the trust of his main officers and soldiers, which is still a long way to go.
"That's good. That's good."
"Thank you for your care, General."
Li Si bowed to Zhao Feng.
Then he bowed to Ying Zheng and said, "I'll take my leave."
Wait until he left the main hall of Zhangtai Palace.
"What do you think of Li Si?"
Ying Zheng asked slowly.
"He has outstanding abilities, but is eccentric and selfish. He can be a minister in the same palace, but not a close friend." Zhao Feng said without hesitation.
I heard Zhao Feng say these five sentences in a row.
Ying Zheng was also a little surprised: "How do you know Li Si so well?"
"Haha." Zhao Feng smiled, and then said: "Extraordinary talent."
Ying Zheng did not blame Zhao Feng for his casual attitude. He looked outside the palace and said thoughtfully, "Li Si!"
"I won't mention my true nature as a human being."
"But he is a good subject."
"If it weren't for Li Si, it would have been difficult for me to control the situation in the court. Moreover, his ability is indeed outstanding."
"I like power and fame, but I am loyal to me."
"It is precisely because of loyalty that I can satisfy him no matter what he wants."
"Even if I let Li You serve as the commander of one side in the army, after all, this is the first time Li Si has asked me for help in so many years, and I can't refuse."
"You understand, don't you?"
Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Fengdao with some anticipation.
These are the words from my heart.
Ying Zheng never told anyone else except Zhao Feng.
"Of course I understand."
"Otherwise, Li You won't be able to stay in the army for more than a month." Zhao Feng smiled faintly.
The purpose of the King of Qin in arranging Li You was, firstly, to monitor and prevent the entire Wu'an camp from falling into his one-man show, and secondly, to make Li Si work harder for him.
This is what Zhao Feng thought.
only.
Zhao Feng was still wrong.
The second reason why Li Si continued to work hard for the Qin Dynasty was indeed this.
But the first surveillance does not exist.
Ying Zheng had never thought about it at all.
certainly.
Even if it was real surveillance, it would be useless.
Zhao Feng's reputation in the Wu'an camp is not something that can be influenced by a main general and some deputy generals.
As long as Zhao Feng wants.
As long as Zhao Feng says a word, these 300,000 soldiers will fight for him. He, Zhao Feng, is the soul of the army.
After hearing what Zhao Feng said.
Ying Zheng also showed a trace of relief on his face: "I knew you would understand."
Then.
Ying Zheng picked up a memorial from the imperial desk and handed it to Zhao Feng: "Take a look at this memorial."
Zhao Feng took it.
One look.
"Any information about the treatment of the Wei soldiers who surrendered?"
Zhao Feng just took a glance and immediately understood.
"What do you think?" Ying Zheng asked.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"It depends on how the king wants to deal with it, whether to use thundering means or gentle means." Zhao Feng closed the memorial and replied.
"The State of Wei no longer exists. If it does not affect the national strength of our Great Qin, we can naturally adopt gentle measures." Ying Zheng replied immediately.
"If you want to use gentle means, you can adopt the folk version of the criminal army method." Zhao Feng smiled.
"Can the method of criminal army still be used among the people?" Ying Zheng was a little surprised.
"The reason why the prisoners worked so hard for the Qin Dynasty was because the Qin Dynasty gave them hope. They no longer had to be slaves forever, and they had the hope of living again and the hope of returning home."
"same."
"The same is true for these surrendered soldiers among the people."
"Even if they are reduced to slaves, as long as they work hard for our Great Qin, for example, after working for five years, their slavery can be pardoned and they can be allowed to return home and reunite with their families."
"For example, if they have made contributions to the Qin Dynasty, such as repairs, city building, and road repairs, they can be rewarded. If they complete the work well, they can be pardoned and return home in less than five years."
"Something like that."
"As long as you give them hope, they will do their best."
"If they become slaves forever, they will definitely not be very satisfied." Zhao Feng said slowly.
Hear this.
There was also a hint of surprise on Ying Zheng's face.
"I listen to what Han Fei said."
"When you were in Wei, you planned the construction of the new city and even proposed to use work in lieu of relief."
"In addition to commanding troops, you are also extremely capable in government affairs." Ying Zheng praised.
"This is just Han Fei's nonsense."
"I am only good at commanding troops." Zhao Feng replied immediately, very modestly.
Ying Zheng smiled and said, "I have taken note of the method for dealing with surrendered soldiers."
"I will announce this matter to the court in a few days and ask them to draw up a charter so that these surrendered soldiers can be fully utilized by the Qin Empire. Even if they cannot go to the battlefield, they must be fully utilized by the Qin Empire."
For this.
Ying Zheng has already made up his mind.
Although I can't go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
But there are too many areas where Daqin needs manpower.
Chidao.
city.
The Northern Great Wall.
There are too many of these.
"Is there anything else, my king?"
"If not, then I will go back home and prepare first." Zhao Feng asked with a smile.
"Are you so anxious?" Ying Zheng said helplessly.
If other people could stay with me for such a long time, it would be such an honor, but this kid doesn't even want to stay.
"Time is urgent. If it weren't for the fact that my personal guards need to rest, I would have set off overnight." Zhao Feng smiled.
And at this time.
There were footsteps outside the hall.
"Your Majesty."
"Madam Mi, Madam Hu, and all the ladies in the palace want to see you."
Zhao Gao's hoarse voice sounded outside the palace.
Hearing this.
Ying Zheng frowned slightly.
"Your Majesty."
"All your concubines have come to care about you." Zhao Feng teased.
"Care?" Ying Zheng sneered, "Perhaps some of them would rather die alone."
"If Gu Ruoruo dies, they will have a chance."
Hear this.
Zhao Feng waved his hands repeatedly: "Your Majesty, please don't tell me too much. I don't want to hear what I should know and what I shouldn't know."
"You little brat..."
Seeing Zhao Feng's indifferent and self-protective look, Ying Zheng was amused: "He has the same personality as your father-in-law. After all, he is my father-in-law and was deeply influenced by him."
but.
Soon Ying Zheng came to his senses.
"Enter."
Ying Zheng shouted outside the palace.
The palace door opened.
A dozen graceful women in palace costumes rushed into the hall.
As soon as you come in.
Suddenly, a sad atmosphere came over me.
"Is the king alright?"
"I heard that the king was assassinated, and I was really worried."
"Woo woo, I hope your Majesty is alright. I was scared to death."
"Those damn assassins actually tried to assassinate the king..."
“Your Majesty…”
The concubines were chattering and some even had tears in their eyes, seeming to be extremely sad.
See this scene.
Zhao Feng couldn't help laughing, but he was still holding it back.
He glanced at Ying Zheng out of the corner of his eye.
His face was also very dark at this moment.
"I will take my leave now."
Zhao Feng slowly stood up, clasped his fists towards Ying Zheng, and turned around to walk out of the hall.
Watching Zhao Feng leaving.
Ying Zheng shook his head helplessly.
But looking at the crying concubines in front of him, Ying Zheng waved his hand and said coldly: "Okay."
"I'm not dead yet!"
This sound fell.
The crying of these concubines stopped abruptly.
"I am worried about the king."
"It would be best if the king is alright."
"yes."
"I'm glad that the King is alright..."
All the concubines spoke up one after another.
Look at them like this.
Ying Zheng didn't say anything else.
Occupy this position.
Hypocritical.
Too many.
In the entire harem.
None of these concubines were truly in love; they were all brought in through marriage, all for power.
In the whole world, the only person who has a friendship with Ying Zheng is Xia Dong'er.
And Zhao Feng.
After leaving Zhangtai Palace.
Zhao Gao came forward immediately.
"General, you saved me with your sword today. I really admire you."
"If it weren't for the general, the king would be in real danger."
Zhao Gao said this in a respectful tone.
"It is the duty of a minister."
"Lord Zhao, there is no need to do this." Zhao Feng said calmly.
After saying.
Zhao Feng strode away.
Looking at Zhao Feng’s back.
There was an inexplicable flash in Zhao Gao's eyes: "What a pity! It would be great if he could be used by Master Hu Hai."
"With his help, Fusu has nothing to fear." - Wangfu!
"father in law."
"What do you think about today?"
After leaving the palace, Zhao Feng came to the prince's mansion.
"Fortunately you arrived in time, otherwise the king would be in danger."
"That assassin was very skilled. If it weren't for your sword, the king would have been injured."
"Afterwards, the Royal Guards also checked and found that the dagger was highly poisonous, and it would kill instantly if it came into contact with blood."
Wang Jian also spoke with a tone of fear.
"Yan State, this time it's over."
"father in law."
"Tomorrow I will set off and return to the clouds."
"Yan'er and the others are coming back soon, so please take good care of them, father-in-law." Zhao Feng said again.
"You're leaving tomorrow?" Wang Jian was stunned. He didn't expect Zhao Feng to leave so quickly.
"Before the news reaches Yan State, we should attack immediately."
"We can catch Yan State off guard." Zhao Feng sneered.
Wang Jian thought for a moment and nodded: "Does the king agree?"
"nature."
Zhao Feng nodded.
"Go ahead."
"I am in charge of Xianyang City." Wang Jian said immediately.
"Thank you, father-in-law." Zhao Feng immediately bowed.
After returning to the mansion.
"Han Chenyan." Zhao Feng shouted.
"My lord." Han Chenyan came quickly.
"Send a letter via wild geese, asking Zhang Han to lead his cavalry to attack Yan."
"Let Tu Sui and Li You provide support."
"Kill the Yan State by surprise."
Zhao Feng shouted coldly.
"Yes." Han Chenyan retreated immediately.
"The wild goose carries the letter."
"It will take three days."
"No matter how fast your Yan country's secret soldiers are, they can never be faster than wild geese."
"This time, I will take the credit for destroying the country."
"Nineteenth level of nobility, the honor of a national lieutenant."
"I must have it." Zhao Feng's eyes were filled with a burning look.
For him.
This is the foundation for becoming stronger.
"There are two more levels of nobility."
"And the honor of the national lieutenant."
"If you count strictly, there is still one throne."
"This is a title of honor."
"I want all of these."
Zhao Feng thought to himself.
