General Qin

Chapter 25

King Qin got up and drew his sword, blood spattered three steps.

Bright red flowers bloomed on the Bronze King's Table.

Jing Ke's body fell heavily to the ground, and the two Langwei warriors who had been prepared for a long time rushed to the case and restrained Jing Ke who fell to the ground.

"The car cracked."

King Qin's voice was as cold as frost.

"only."

Lang Wei dragged Jing Ke out of the palace alone, picked up the dagger that Zhao Tuo had dropped on the ground, and looked at the young man in front of him curiously.

Zhao Tuo was kneeling on the ground, his body upright, his eyes very calm.

What should be said and what should be done, he has said and done.

Everything else will be decided by the king of the case.

Behind him, there was the roar of Qin's ministers.

"Your Majesty, Yanxi and Yandan dare to send assassins to commit murder, they should wipe out the Yan Kingdom!"

"Destroy the country of Yan and overthrow its state!"

...

In the midst of the anger, King Qin had already sat on the emperor's couch again. He ignored the noisy officials in the palace and looked directly at Zhao Tuo who was facing the case.

"You speak the world, who taught you."

His voice was indifferent, making it impossible to judge the emotions contained in it.

Zhao Tuo responded, "I report to you, Your Majesty. No one taught me, but I learned from what I saw and heard."

"This minister is the grandson of the Pingyang Lord in the past. He was born in the family of Zhongming Dingshi since he was a child, so he has learned the history of the princes from his master."

"In my view, the feudal lords have been fighting for years, and the common people have suffered heavy casualties. The reason is that there are too many kings in the world, and each of them wants to conquer other countries and expand their own territory. This leads to endless wars."

"If there is only one king in the world, only one voice, and only one country for the common people, then naturally there will be no more wars, and the common people can truly settle down, live and work in peace and prosperity. Therefore, I don't want to do assassination with Jing Ke. I hope that the king can rule the world and let the people of the world find peace."

This is Zhao Tuo's sincere words.

He finally broke with Jing Ke, not just to save his own life.

Coming from later generations, he knows exactly how important a unified country is.

Within Liuhe, the land of the emperor.

It crosses quicksand in the west and ends in Beihu in the south.

There is the East China Sea in the east, and Daxia in the north.

Wherever there are people, there are all ministers.

Not only the expansion of territory, but also the fact that all the people in the world can gather together under the leadership of one voice, and its strength will far exceed that of the past.

Zhao Tuo knew that, judging from the current general situation, even if King Qin was really assassinated, Qin would probably be able to unify and successfully annex the six countries.

It's just that it will take more time, and I don't know how long it will take to complete this great cause of unification.

But, time is running out!

Zhao Tuo knew very well that on the grasslands in the north, dark clouds were gathering.

The tribe named Xiongnu is becoming stronger and stronger. They not only own the vast northern grasslands, but also occupy the Henan land north of Guanzhong. Even the Northern Great Wall built by King Zhao Wuling is also under the control of those nomads.

Yinshan, Yangshan, Beijia...

Surrounded by mountains and rivers, there are thousands of miles of fertile fields.

The Xiongnu occupying here will become stronger and stronger, and they will destroy the Donghu, expel the Yuezhi, conquer the countries in the Western Regions, and establish a huge grassland empire in the near future.

Then, they will turn their attention to the south, the land of China.

In the previous life, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty was trapped in Baishan Mountain, humiliated and begged for mercy.

The princess of the Han family went north to Hudi and devoted herself to begging for peace.

The bloody battle between the Han and the Hungarians lasted for a hundred years before they felt elated.

Among them, I don't know how many people died and how much blood was shed.

This was the situation formed after Meng Tian drove the Xiongnu to the north and severely damaged it, and the Han family quickly unified China.

If the king of Qin is killed, the unification war will continue to be delayed, and the Henan land cannot be recaptured in time to hit the Xiongnu hard.

Then the Huns will be stronger than the original history.

Can a divided China withstand the mighty Xiongnu Empire?

Zhao Tuo didn't dare to think about it, nor did he dare to try it.

So even if he dies here, he still has to stop Jing Ke.

King Qin cannot die!

Qin Shihuang must unify the world!

King Qin stared deeply at Zhao Tuo.

The theory of great unification has been around for a long time. Whether it is Confucianism, Legalism, Taoism, Mohism, etc., there are actually theories related to the great unification, but they are different from each other.

This kind of theory itself is not unusual. If the words just now were said by an old man who is familiar with everything in the world, such as Wei Liao and Li Si, King Qin would not be too surprised.

But it was a young man who said this, and his age was not much different from Fusu's.

Thinking of Fusu, King Qin couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

It's amazing how different people are at the same age but with such a huge difference in knowledge.

Thoughts surged in King Qin's heart, but his face remained calm. He said calmly: "But Qin and Zhao have been enemies for generations. Back then, Lord Wu'an killed hundreds of thousands of Zhao people. Today, the widow has even destroyed your country of Zhao and even the people he killed. , there are relatives of you. As a descendant of the Zhao clan, don't you hate it at all?"

Zhao Tuo looked calm.

"My lord, my parents did not die at the hands of the Qin people, but at the hands of King Zhao. There is no enmity between me and Qin."

"As for the Zongmiao Sheji, it's just like what I said to Jing Ke just now. I don't know how many princes and shrines in the world have lost their lives. Even the emperor of Zhou died that week. What is the Zongmiao of Zhao Guo in the face of this unified trend?"

A faint smile appeared on the corner of King Qin's mouth: "That's why you set fire on purpose and sued the adulterer at night, so that the widows can prepare for this assassination in advance."

"only."

"I believe that it will be much better for the king to unify the world than the melee of the princes."

Zhao Tuo's voice was clear and clear, echoing in the hall.

All the officials in the hall looked at the back of the kneeling young man in surprise.

This young man had already given them too many surprises today.

"This son's insight is so extraordinary, he will surely achieve something in the future."

Standing in front of the hall, Captain Qin Zhibang, Wei Liao stroked his white beard and sighed: "Li Changshi, you have discovered a good talent this time."

The elder Shi Lisi on the side also nodded in agreement, he originally thought that the young man came to the door to sue for adultery that night, just to save his life.

After all, Qin Fa has something to say, to accuse the adulterer of crime and get a reward.

But he didn't expect this young man to have such insight.

As King Qin's confidant, Li Si knew it very well.

King Qin's heart was moved by the young man in front of him.

"Wang Li, take him down now, there will be rewards and punishments for this matter."

"only."

Following the order from the king, Lang Wei and Wang Li who were waiting by the side stretched out their hands to Zhao Tuo.

Zhao Tuo saluted King Qin again, got up and walked out of the hall with Wang Li.

Wherever he passed, all the officials of Qin State paid attention to him and sent him off.

Put this young man's face deeply into his mind.

"Your Majesty, Yan Guo's conspiracy to assassinate is a heinous crime, and he should be punished!"

As soon as Zhao Tuo came out of the hall, all the officials in the hall spoke again to attack Yan.

The King of Qin glanced at the courtiers who were agitated, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The reason why he continued to rehearse the assassination of Qin after he knew that Jing Ke would carry out the assassination was not only because King Qin had the confidence to control everything.

It was because he wanted to make this an excuse to attack Yan.

When Jing Ke assassinated Qin, it was Yan who provoked him first!

If the state of Qin destroys Yan, it will be the King of Yan's own fault.

After this incident, the entire state of Qin will be filled with righteous indignation, the people's sentiments will be turbulent, and the destruction of Yan is bound to be won.

Wei, Chu, and Qi did not dare to support Yan under such circumstances.

In this matter, although the risk is great, the profit is also great.

Not to mention King Qin, this time he met a young man who made him fall in love.

King Qin's expression was solemn, and he declared in majestic words.

"Order the general to destroy Yan."

"My widow, I want Yan Dan's head!"

Angry, about the Xiongnu, a bunch of people insisted that the Huns did not get up, so I would like to ask when did the Henan land, Yangshan, Beijia, Gaoque and other places that Meng Tian drove the Huns to the north fall into the hands of the Huns 10 years later?

If it wasn't for the Xiongnu occupying these places when Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, who would Meng Tian fight ten years later? Whose territory is Meng Tian fighting for? Or is it said that the Huns were defeated after the unification of Qin?

According to works such as Huo Yinzhang's "Military History of the Qin Dynasty", Chen Xujing's "History of the Huns", Zhang Jinkui's "Empire of the Huns", all believe that it was captured by the Huns when Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, and the description of the Huns in the article is also based on the corresponding works. So have you questioned whether you have read the relevant works, or even read "Historical Records", and then criticize the author.

Timeline: Qin destroyed the six kingdoms (the Xiongnu occupied the false Gaoque area in the north of Diyang Mountain in Henan Province) - after the unification of Qin, Meng Tian drove the Xiongnu to the north (Touman was defeated by Qin, and moved north) - the end of Qin Dynasty (Modun rose to destroy Donghu, and went south again ), so the book said that it was when Touman was strong. If Qin Unification hadn't defeated it, wouldn't the Xiongnu under the leadership of Touman not be strong?

Huo Yinzhang "Military History of the Qin Dynasty": P106-107

Zhang Jinkui's The Hun Empire: P50-51

Chen Xujing's "History of the Huns": P182-183

"Historical Records Biography of the Xiongnu": Later Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, and the first emperor sent Meng Tian to attack the north with 100,000 people, and they all collected the land of Henan. Because the river is a fortress, forty-four county towns were built near the river, and moved to fill it. And the straight road, from Jiuyuan to Yunyang, because of the dangerous side mountains and valleys that can be repaired, it starts from Lintao to Liaodong for more than ten thousand li. He also crossed the river and occupied the north of Yangshan Mountain.
