Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

In the Palace of the King of Chu, all the people who really control the Chu Kingdom are gathered here. At the moment of life and death, they can no longer care about the previous unhappiness between each other, the so-called personal grudges, and family grudges. At this time, the Qin army is about to attack the border with a large army. Under the threat of death and destruction, it is nothing. At this time, they gather here just to stop Qin and preserve everything they have now.

Amidst a burst of noise, King Chu walked into the hall. With the arrival of King Chu, the atmosphere in the entire hall became quiet. However, these people's eyes were not directed at another person beside King Chu, a middle-aged man. .

He was the Ling Yin of the Chu State and also the official of the Chu State. He was called Fu Chu. During the power struggle in the Chu State over the years, because of the support of the Chu State's official family, he gradually rose to the position of the Ling Yin of the Chu State. , against the king's uncle Li Yuan who had the support of the Empress Dowager Li, together with the king's uncle Li Yuan and the general Xiang Yan, they were called the three giants in private discussions among the Chu people.

Now that the Qin army is pressing down on the country, the Chu government naturally has a sense of distrust towards the outsider Li Yuan. Only by bearing the cud can they gain their approval, because they all know that if Qin attacks and annihilates If they lose the Chu State, they, who are rich because of their blood, will lose everything. Therefore, it is impossible for them to betray the Chu State, and it is impossible for them to betray the Chu State.

"According to reliable information, the Qin State will dispatch 600,000 troops this time, led by General Wang Jian, to attack our Chu State on a front line of nearly a thousand miles from Daliang to Nanjun." After everyone saw the King of Chu, , Negi Chu crossed Li Yuan and said.

"Six hundred thousand troops?" Hearing this number, the hall suddenly exploded. The number of six hundred thousand is really too huge, especially for the Qin army. What does the six hundred thousand Qin army represent? They know very well, according to The combat power of the Chu army cannot match this 600,000-strong army. It is absolutely impossible without a million-strong army. But can the Chu army mobilize a million-strong army?

According to the population of the Chu State, it may be possible to do so, but according to the national power of the Chu State, it cannot support such a huge military force. Not to mention anything else, the mere consumption of food is enough to bring down the Chu State. The amount of food a person consumes in just one day is an astronomical figure.

Sending an army of 600,000 troops to conquer other countries consumes resources that only the Qin State, which has now conquered the four kingdoms of Yan, Zhao, Han and Wei, can do this. Even the Chu State, which has a vast territory and abundant resources, cannot do it.

"Don't panic, everyone. Although this is bad news, there is also good news." Zhe Chu raised his palm and then pressed it down to draw everyone's attention back.

"Is there any good news?" Everyone couldn't help but be startled when they heard what Fu Chu said. Is there any good news in this situation?

Seeing that he had successfully drawn everyone's attention back, Fu Chu even smiled and said: "The Qin State leader is General Wang Jian, not Grand Master Yang Ming. Isn't this good news?"

It's not Yang Ming, but Wang Jian. Is this good news? That doesn't sound like a problem.

Wang Jian's strength may not be weaker than that of Yang Ming, but when it comes to the pressure on the battlefield, Wang Jian is far inferior to Yang Ming. After all, although Wang Jian has the record of breaking the beam and destroying Wei, he is not as powerful as Yang Ming. The military achievements of defeating the most powerful legion of the Six Kingdoms in one day, Zhao's side cavalry, and Yang Ming's devastating attack on Yan and Zhao may be similar, but in terms of impact on people's hearts, they are Much worse.

In the minds of Chu people, Wang Jian can definitely be regarded as a famous general, but he is still a human being, but Yang Ming is different. The most elite legion of Chu State was wiped out by Yang Ming in half a day. The legends about Yang Ming over the years are enough for the Chu people to classify Yang Ming as a god or demon.

Especially during the Battle of Jicheng, Chu State also received some rumors. Among those rumors, there was a terrifying legend that Yang Ming defeated Jicheng with one strike, defeated the metal giant with two strikes, and shot down the Azure Dragon with three strikes. In the end, Incarnate as a divine dragon, these rumors are more lethal among the Chu people who are more superstitious than other countries.

In the perception of these Chu people, Yang Ming's terror can only be compared to that of Bai Qi, the god of death back then.

Thinking about it this way, the good news mentioned by Zhe Chu is not untenable.

"The Qin army's attack is something we cannot choose. After all, Qin's aggressive nature has been recognized by everyone in the world. We can't change anything. All we can do is fight desperately. Is it possible that we want to attack Zhao?" King Han, can't you go out of the city and surrender? We are born rich and noble, how can we accept the order of slaves." Xiang Chu said, his voice was not loud, and he was not impassioned, but in the ears of everyone in the hall, it was very powerful. Provocative.

Yes, in the Chu State, people like them were born rich, so how could they live the life of slaves.

"Moreover, you don't need to panic too much. An army of 600,000 is not easy to mobilize. The Qin army came from afar and attacked Chu State from a battlefield nearly a thousand miles away. How many troops can Wang Jian really mobilize directly? "Nie Chu continued.

"No matter how many Qin troops come, as long as we can defeat the main force of the Qin army under Wang Jian in the first round of battle, we can shake the Qin army's offensive across the board. As for how to fight specifically, that is the general's business. I can do it What we do is to take out the last piece of grain in the granary and use it as military rations, melt the last piece of iron in the house and cast it into a weapon, and activate the most satisfactory slaves around us to turn them into our soldiers." Negative. Chu said his determination.

With negative consequences to incite people's hearts, the next specific strategic and tactical arrangements will be arranged by Xiang Yan, the current general of Chu State.

While the front hall of the Chu Palace was filled with high-spirited fighting spirit, there was another kind of tranquility in the east hall of the harem of the Chu Palace.

"I've always been curious, Li Wu, why have you stayed in Chu Palace for so long? If it's because of Luo Wang's order, the current leader of Luo Wang can no longer control you. If it's because of men, you've wasted so long in Chu Palace. Is it worth it? A woman's best years are only more than ten years, and you are already over thirty years old." As the Queen Mother of Chu, Li Yanyan sat on the big seat, in front of her, It was none other than the former snare killer and Xianyang courtesan, now the confidant of the Queen Mother of Chu State, Li Wu.

As time goes by, and the time spent in the Chu Palace becomes longer and longer, Li Wu seems to be changing quietly. Li Wu used to be beautiful, but because the snare attribute on her body is too heavy, Li Wu's body seems to be changing quietly. Wu always had a spooky and ghostly feeling, and now Li Wu is also quiet and noble. If it weren't for the fierceness inadvertently revealed between her eyebrows, everyone would probably think of her as a female official who has lived in the palace for a long time.

"I'm just doing it for myself." Faced with Queen Mother Li's question, Li Wu gave her own answer.

"Just for yourself?" Queen Mother Li asked in surprise.

"I want to prove my worth. There are too many people around him, so I don't have to squeeze through. Besides, even if I squeeze through, what does it matter? Beside him, there are all the disciples of the Yin Yang family, and Dong There are famous ladies in the county, including the seductress from Baiyue, the courtesan from the brothel, and even the Hu girl. If I become one of them, I will just disappear among everyone." Li Wu said.

The Yang family is too big, and Li Wu is not willing to be just an ordinary one, or even an inconspicuous one. She wants to prove her worth. Only in this way can she find her place in that family.

"So, how do you want to prove your worth? With the Aijia?" Queen Mother Li looked at Li Wu. She knew Li Wu's details from the beginning, but she still didn't understand Li Wu's purpose. , to be more precise, she knew it but didn't believe it, because the persuasiveness of that reason seemed to be very limited.

"If you only want Canglong Qisu, the Ai family can give it to you now. It is said that whoever masters Canglong Qisu can gain the power to control the world, but in the eyes of the Ai family, it is nothing more than that." Empress Dowager Li said.

"The seven kingdoms all control the Canglong Qisu, but no one can control the world. In the end, only weapons can control the world. As for the Canglong Qisu, don't you see that four points have already been included in the Qin Kingdom?" Empress Dowager Li said leisurely, A useless box, she really didn't know why there were so many legends about it.

"I know the Queen Mother is generous, but this Canglong Qisu is not my ultimate goal." Li Wu said with a smile, after getting along with people for a long time, they always have feelings. Besides, Queen Mother Li is actually quite nice and not overbearing. , and don’t have any bad hobbies, so after getting along with each other for these years, Li Wu and Queen Mother Li still have a deep relationship.

"Then what is your purpose?" Queen Mother Li asked curiously. Because of some things back then, she got in touch with Yang Ming, who was leading the army to attack Chu.

After so many years, Queen Mother Li was often worried that Yang Ming would take advantage of her previous cooperation and do something more egregious, such as betraying Chu's interests.

Fortunately, over the years, Yang Ming seemed to have forgotten the Chu Kingdom. Apart from the occasional contact through Li Wu, there was no other contact. This made Queen Mother Li feel relieved and uneasy, but at the same time she couldn't help but feel a little resentful. For Yang Ming, She doesn't take herself too seriously. After all, she is also the queen mother of a country. Doesn't she have any use value?

"At least I have to take you back, Queen Mother Li." Li Wu joked.

"You, you can say anything. I am the Queen Mother of Chu, how can I..." Queen Mother Li shook her head and said, ever since she was sent to the Chu Palace, she had no choice.

What happened to the Queen Mother? Is the Queen Mother very noble? There have been many empress dowagers who have perished in the past few years, and they may not be able to remain high and mighty. Didn't you see that the empress dowager of Zhao has committed suicide? Li Wu thought in her heart.
