Chapter 562 Changping Jun
"King Qi, you are still indecisive at this time. You are such a waste."
While Qi was struggling, inside the palace of Chu, Changping Jun and Yan Dan looked very angry after receiving relevant information from Qi.
On the surface, the strength of Chu and Qin is not much different. Even as a defensive side, Chu has natural geographical advantages, but this is only superficial. Lord Changping suddenly emerged as the King of Chu, although there are many in Chu. People are loyal to him, including the three major armies.
But there are also many people who are against him. The former King of Chu also had many loyal subordinates. In normal times, Lord Changping would naturally have a way to slowly deal with these people, but at this stage, Lord Changping has nothing to do. A good way to deal with them, and at the same time, there is no more thought to deal with them.
After all, the threat of Qin was imminent. In public, Lord Changping naturally showed a confident look, but it was only on the surface. As the right prime minister of Qin, even if many of his rights were weakened by Ying Zheng in the later period, the same I still know a lot of Qin’s secrets.
After all, Changping Lord has a close relationship with the royal family of Qin. His defection caused an uproar in Qin. A large number of people were purged. The actions were no worse than Lu Buwei’s time. More importantly, this time it involved Fu Mr. Su.
Many people wanted to take this opportunity to add insult to injury to Fusu. The battle for the throne had never stopped. This was also one of the purposes of Lord Changping. It was probably the same as Yingzheng deliberately letting him escape. Yingzheng wanted to cause Chu State The turmoil of the Qin Dynasty, while Lord Changping wanted to cause turmoil in the Qin State.
However, it is a pity that Ying Zheng's prestige in the Qin State is too high. Changping Lord's escape did not cause much chaos at all. On the contrary, the chaos on the Chu State's side was much greater.
Lord Changping, who has been scheming in secret, is not as good as Ying Zheng in one thing, that is, he is upright and upright. Lord Changping's original reputation was not low, but after his conspiracy was exposed, the situation was completely different. No one likes conspirators. Even if cooperation is forced, there must be more or less other plans in mind.
"Confucianism." Changping Jun and Yan Dan mentioned Confucianism at the same time.
In fact, no one can persuade the King of Qi to send troops at this time, that is, the Confucians will come forward, but it is a pity that the Confucians will not participate in the battle between Qin and Chu, even if during this period, Yan Dan and Chang Ping Jun sent Many people, even Confucian Zhang Liang, wanted to help, but Confucianism did not agree.
For Confucians, it is not in their interest for Qi to join the war. On the contrary, it is in the interest of Confucianism if Qin unified the world. After all, this time is not to conquer the world, but to govern the world, and in governing the world, all the people The teachings of Zibai School are better than those of Confucianism.
And even if Qi is destroyed, it will not affect the interests of Confucianism.
Confucianism was unpopular during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Don’t the top Confucian leaders know that? Of course they knew it, but they just couldn’t change the Confucian philosophy. After all, if it changed, would it still be Confucianism?
"Is it true that Qinglong cannot be used?" Lord Changping asked in a deep voice after being silent for a while, staring at Yan Dan. Now for Lord Changping, there is only one chance to win the war, and that is the appearance of the Mohist organ Qinglong, the leader of the four spiritual beasts.
"There is no way yet." Yan Dan shook his head silently. If Qinglong, the mechanism, could be used, he would have used it on the battlefield of Yan State, so that Yan State would not be destroyed at all.
"It seems that the only solution for now is to delay the matter first."
If Lord Changping in the original work was confident of overthrowing Qin and unifying the world after trapping Qin's 200,000 troops, then Lord Changping now has no such idea at all. He now only hopes to rely on the depth of Chu. , dragged Qin into the quagmire of war, forcing Qin to withdraw its troops.
The Chu State, which has a vast territory and abundant resources, is very deep.
"Yeah." Yan Dan nodded in agreement.
"Master Zhang, you are so elegant."
After Shen Fei arrived at the Zhang Mansion in Xinzheng City, he saw Zhang Kaidi leisurely fishing by the pond of the residence. There was also a young and beautiful concubine beside him. I have to say that Kaikai Di enjoyed himself very much. Now, at such an old age, there are quite a few concubines, and they are all young and beautiful.
"It turns out that the Imperial Master is here. How rude." Zhang Zhangdi immediately put down the fishing rod in his hand, stood up, and waved the concubine beside him to leave.
"I wonder if the Imperial Master is here, what advice can you give me?" After everyone else left, Kaifangdi said.
"It's not about giving advice, I'm just here to give you a piece of advice. The empire is about to dominate the world, so it's better to put away some small thoughts, otherwise." Shen Fei said and showed a meaningful smile to Zhang Kai.
"Please forgive Zhang for not understanding the meaning of the Imperial Master." Zhang Kai's expression did not seem to change at all.
"No, you know very well that Zhang Liang is very popular in Xiaoshengxian Manor in Songhai City. Don't say that you don't know about this. If you want to use Confucian power to fight against Qin, do you really think that Fu Nian and the others are Are you a fool? I think you are familiar with this sword." Shen Fei said as he showed his light sword.
The Hanguang Sword once belonged to Confucian Yan Lu, but now it is in the hands of Shen Fei. The meaning of this is very thought-provoking. It is impossible for the Confucian side to tell the story about Shen Fei getting the Hanguang Sword through threats. .
Zhang Kaidi immediately fell silent when he saw the Hanguang Sword in Shen Fei's hand.
"Qin and Chu are about to start a war. Some people had better be honest. Otherwise, don't blame me for killing them without teaching." Shen Fei said as he waved his right hand. A long sword appeared out of thin air under his feet, carrying him to the sky and leaving Zhang's house.
If Zhang Kaidi could remain calm before, then this moment was completely different. Shen Fei's sudden rise made his face change drastically, and his body trembled involuntarily.
"I don't know if I will have the opportunity to learn the real sword-controlling technique in the future." After Shen Fei flew away from Zhang's house on the long sword, he immediately used the Flying Thunder God Technique and returned to Lanxiu Villa. It was not a sword-controlling technique before, but a control technique. It looked very amazing, and it was only for those who could not understand it.
It was far from the real sword-controlling technique.
The reason why he went to Zhang Kaidi at this time was because the battle between Qin and Chu was about to begin, and he went to warn him. The same was true for showing a fake sword-controlling technique.
Zhang Kaidi in Korea, although he has no power now, the invisible power of the Zhang family is very amazing. The Zhang family has been the prime minister of Korea for five generations, a real old-fashioned family.
Although it seems that there are no masters, it is just an appearance. The Zhang family still hides some masters. Of course, this is actually nothing. The key is the intelligence network of the Zhang family.
In the original book, when Zhang Liang fought against Ba Linglong, he found the jade ring of Chang'an Jun Chengjiao within a few days and sent it to Zhang Liang.
This kind of execution ability would be very shocking even in the modern society with the Internet, let alone this era. Considering the situation carefully, it is really terrifying. This is the family.
The previous Xinzheng riots were undoubtedly helped by the family of the original Korea. The position of the Zhang family can be seen from Zhang Liang.
For Shen Fei, although he is not afraid of these people making trouble, if something happens, it will be very troublesome to suppress it. In this case, it is better to show his strength and suppress Zhang Kaidi. After all, for these families, they have no moral integrity for the existence of the family.
Zhang Kaidi was born in a Confucian family. Shen Fei naturally had no good impression of Confucianism. This school has a very important characteristic, that is, double standards, strict with others and lenient with oneself.
Zhang Kaidi has more than a dozen concubines, big and small, and they are all very different in age from him. He also calls it food, sex and nature.
Shen Fei naturally admires the real Confucian masters. Such people are naturally virtuous, but unfortunately, most Confucian disciples do not have such a level, they are just half-baked.
After Shen Fei's warning, the situation in Xinzheng City has indeed improved a lot. From this, we can know that Zhang Kaidi is indeed acting in secret.
However, Shen Fei is no longer paying attention to him at this time. He has come to one of the three battlefields between Qin and Chu, where the Qin's Golden Fire Cavalry is against the Tenglong Corps of the Xiang family of Chu.
These two troops are both cavalry.
Originally, according to Changping Jun's plan, it was to fight a defensive battle, but on the real battlefield, the so-called plan must be seen clearly. There is a saying that the general is not subject to the orders of the king when he is away.
The Tenglong Corps is mainly composed of cavalry, and is not good at defending the city. In addition, the existence of various mechanical beasts in Qin State now makes it difficult to defend the city, especially after Qin State invested a large number of siege equipment such as catapults of the Gongshu family.
"Xiang Yan of Chu State."
"Meng Tian of Qin State."
In the plains, the Golden Fire Cavalry and the Tenglong Corps, each with 200,000 people, confronted each other. Xiang Yan and Meng Tian drove their horses forward a few steps from their own formations, staring at each other.
"It seems that there is no single duel between generals in this era." Sitting on the high ground in the rear, overlooking the military formations of both sides in front, Shen Fei suddenly had such an idea in his mind.
"Xiang Yan, your head, we Meng family want it." Meng Tian shouted loudly to Xiang Yan.
"Meng Tian of the Meng family, haha, it seems that the Meng family has no successor. A yellow-haired boy dares to speak wildly." Xiang Yan seemed to look down on Meng Tian very much, but this was not surprising. The Xiang family of Chu State has always been very arrogant.
You can see it from Xiang Yu later. At this time, Xiang Yan was the general of Chu. In terms of status, only Wang Jian in Qin was on par with him. Meng Tian's status was a little worse.
"I hope you can still laugh later." Meng Tian said with a wave of his hand. The Golden Fire Cavalry immediately began to charge, and Meng Tian himself slowly retreated under the protection of the guards.
Meng Tian was not a general who charged, so he naturally would not lead the charge.
"Kill."
The first contact between the two sides was not the Golden Fire Cavalry and the Tenglong Legion, but the mechanical beasts of both sides. In order to support Chu this time, the Mohist School obviously spent a lot of money and dispatched a large number of mechanical white tigers. There were mechanical beasts of the Mohist School in the three major battlefields.
The ordinary soldiers of both sides tacitly did not approach the range of the mechanical beasts.
"You can start."
After retreating to the high ground behind, Meng Tian immediately ordered the catapults on one side to start. The catapults improved by the Gongshu family were no longer as heavy and difficult to move as before, and now their mobility has greatly increased. At the same time, the hidden mechanical beasts also began to move out. Meng Tian had been showing weakness to the enemy before, but now he showed his fangs.
"Xiang Yan is really just a name for nothing."
Shen Fei knew the outcome of this war before it even started. Perhaps from Xiang Yan's point of view, it was a 50-50 chance. Considering the strength of the commander, there was still a chance of winning. However, from Shen Fei's point of view, he was totally overthinking it. Meng Tian's wisdom was no less than his, and the number of mechanical beasts in Qin was even greater than that of Chu.
The Mohists were simply courting death by competing with Qin in the number of mechanical beasts. Coupled with the long-range attack of the catapults, the Tenglong Corps suffered heavy losses under the multi-pronged approach.
"He was also forced to do so." Meng Tian rarely spoke the truth for Xiang Yan.
Xiang Yan was indeed forced to launch this plain war because although Chu's defense strategy of relying on the city wall was good, it underestimated the strength of Qin.
When Ying Zheng attacked the four countries of Han, Zhao, Wei and Yan, he did not use all his strength at all and hid a lot of mechanical beasts. This time, when attacking Chu, all the hidden strength was taken out. After all, after the demise of Chu, the Central Plains was basically unified.
Under the command of Wang Jian, a peerless general, and with a military force far superior to that of the enemy, the Qin army was unstoppable at the beginning of this war, and the city walls could not stop the Qin army's attack at all.
"Long Qie, this outfit is really eye-catching."
On the battlefield, there is a very conspicuous place, that is, the person wearing red armor and riding a red horse. This is simply telling the enemy that he is a senior general. The Golden Fire Cavalry will naturally not fail to see it. A large number of soldiers rushed to the enemy. Killing ordinary enemies and officers on the battlefield is completely different from military merit.
However, Long Qie was not jealous. The long spear in his hand was waved like a dragon out of the sea. One blow would take the life of a soldier. For a time, he was invincible.
"The invasion of Fenghuo Linshan is like fire. Goodbye." After holding off Long Qie, Shen Fei immediately waved his right hand, and a long spear in the hand of a soldier on the side appeared in his hand. The powerful true energy covered the long spear, and then lifted it up more than ten meters, and threw the long spear in his hand towards Long Qie from a high position.
He came to this battlefield to find Long Qie. Although with the current strength of the Qin State, it doesn't matter even if Xiang Shaoyu gathers Fenghuo Linshan later, but Shen Fei wants to see if Chu Nan Gong will show up after killing Long Qie.
The long spear wrapped in black true energy, like a black meteor, pierced through Long Qie's body from the front and top of his chest after Long Qie picked up a Qin soldier with a spear, and nailed him and the red horse under him firmly to the ground with a spear.
"General Long Qie." The sudden change made the people of the Tenglong Legion change their faces, but the Golden Fire Cavalry looked happy.
The two Golden Fire Cavalry immediately took the opportunity to pierce Long Qie's body with their long spears almost at the same time, making Long Qie swallow the last words he wanted to say.
Then the two of them exerted force at the same time to lift up Long Jue's body, and turned around and ran to the rear. The other Golden Fire Cavalry stepped forward to block the soldiers of the Tenglong Legion who wanted to take back Long Jue's body. The body of a general was an important military achievement and naturally could not be allowed to be taken back by the enemy.
