When I was in Qin Dynasty, I lost contact with the wave

Chapter 450 Zhang Ji: No one wants me to leave my newlywed wife and concubine to go to the battlefield!

([-] words, two chapters in one)

"Wei Zhuang is the last descendant of the Zheng Kingdom?"

The news revealed by Han Wangan made everyone in Zhangtai Palace look askance.

The State of Zheng, a vassal state with the surname Ji that had been extinct for 130 years, had long been annihilated under the wheel of history, but the impact that the State of Zheng had on the world was indelible.

The founding king of the state of Zheng was Ji You, younger brother of King Xuan of Zhou, who was enfeoffed near the capital, Haojing.

Zheng Zhuanggong deliberately pampered his younger brother, Gong Shuduan, and then eradicated him in one fell swoop, consolidating his power and status. He also used his great talents to strengthen the country, making Zheng the first country to dominate the heroes. .

If that were the case, Zheng's influence on the world would not be indelible, and the name Zheng Zhuanggong would not become the unforgettable first overlord among the princes.

And everything is due to one arrow!
During the Battle of Suige, Zhu Dan, the official of the State of Zheng, fought bravely. He drove his car straight towards the hood of King Huan of Zhou's chariot, and he bent his bow and arrow and hit King Huan of Zhou's left shoulder!
This arrow completely cut off the dignity of the Emperor of Zhou, and also penetrated the curtain surrounding Zhou's strong-willed nature. It channeled all the ambitions of the princes and opened the prelude to the age of great strife.

And another reason why the name Zheng Zhuanggong is still often mentioned is that Zheng Guoneng under the rule of Zheng Zhuanggong rose to become the source of power for the hegemony of the world.

The source of this power involves another one that has been passed down for thousands of years or even longer, and even involves Dayu of that year - Canglong Qisu

And because of this illusory speculation, since Zheng Zhuanggong, various countries have frequently fought against each other, and no one has forgotten to look for the seven copper boxes that inherit the secrets of Canglong Qisu.

Later, the copper box fell into the hands of the seven great countries among the princes of the world. For a while, the seven countries ruled the roost and destroyed other countries one after another.

However, although there is one for each of the seven copper boxes and seven countries, everyone speculates that South Korea, the weakest, is the country closest to the secret of Canglong Qisu.

After all, Zheng Guo, which had been passed down for more than 400 years, died in the hands of South Korea.

And everyone knows that when the three families divided Jin, Han Xiangduangui wrote a letter to Han Kangzi. When dividing the land, he must ask for Chenggao, a poor land that does not grow crops. He showed his ambition to destroy Zheng Guo. Zheng Guo perished in his hands.

People in the world have also heard that the reason why South Korea once rose to become what people call "Strong Korea" is because it has mastered part of the secrets of Canglong Qisu.

And this Wei Zhuang is actually a descendant of Zheng Guo?

For a moment, everyone was unsettled and had their own thoughts. Their eyes all fell on Han Wangan's fat body. Those sharp eyes made Han Wangan feel a little uncomfortable.

"Ahem, since the Spring and Autumn Period, various countries have attacked and destroyed the country without eradicating its sacrifices. The same is naturally true for South Korea. However, at that time, the Zheng Kingdom was first destroyed, and South Korea moved its capital to Zheng. Therefore, they were on guard against the Zheng royal family and put them under house arrest in the old Zheng Wang Palace. That is, in today's cold palace in South Korea."

King Ansan of Han smiled and explained, but what kind of people are the people present? Can they not understand that South Korea actually wants to get the secret of Canglong Qisu from the Zheng royal family?
But 130 years have passed, and the royal family of Zheng has been tortured again and again, and only Wei Zhuang is left. Knowing that the other party was rescued by Gui Guzi and taught him the knowledge of Gui Gu, but did not kill him, not only because of watching For the sake of Guiguzi, he couldn't bear to kill this descendant of Zheng Guo who might know the secret of Canglong Qisu.

Everyone seemed to be listening to a story, while listening to Han Wangan tell stories about Zheng Guo, Canglong Qisu and Weizhuang while eating the court food given by Yingzheng.

Although Luo Wang was quite anxious when delivering this information, and Ying Zheng also seemed a little anxious when he summoned everyone to Zhangtai Palace to discuss matters, that anxiety also dissipated when Ying Zheng's drunkenness and sleepiness gradually disappeared.

So what if Wei Zhuang supported Lord Hengyang as King of Han?
In other words, does South Korea still have the power to fight?

The reason why South Korea has been able to survive in these years is the elite army controlled by Ji Wuye and his Yemu members, followed by the army of Xueyi Castle and the elite army called the White Armor Army.

The former collapsed and became rogues, bandits, or defected to other countries, while the latter defected to Qin along with Bai Jin after being hit hard.

South Korea's last remaining reliance was the Royal City Guards and the Royal Armor Guards, two elite units guarding the Royal City. However, these two elites were nearly wiped out due to the rebellion launched by Wei Zhuang. So what kind of combat power does South Korea have? ?
Such a South Korea can be destroyed with a population of [-]!
Moreover, it is rare for Qin to have such a justifiable reason when it encounters a war of annihilation.

As the vassal king Han Wangan who accepted the imperial seal from Qin, he went to Qin to attend the evening ceremony of his son-in-law, but was usurped by domestic rebels. In order to protect the interests of his subjects, the Qin army openly sent troops to South Korea to quell the civil strife for King Han. Is there any more legitimate reason than this one?
As for the food issue, although the Zhengguoqu Canal has just been completed and its value has not yet been truly reflected, the wheat on the ground in Guanzhong is already ripe at this moment, and it is just in time for harvesting!
The food problem has been solved, and there is a reason to send troops. The only question that Ying Zheng has to worry about now is who will hand over the victory of destroying the country?
Ying Zheng was not so kind as to destroy Korea and then return it to King An of Han. The vassal states were just the land that was collected into the pocket, and the land that became the direct jurisdiction of the Qin State was what he really took.

As one of the few who succeeded in destroying the country, Ying Zheng also needed to consider the many factors involved such as qualifications, favors and other factors.

"One thing does not bother the two masters, why not bother Mr. to go this time, and simply solve the Korean matter completely."

After thinking about it again and again, Ying Zheng ordered Zhang Ji's general.

Although Zhang Ji had just gotten married and it was somewhat unreasonable to issue an order to go out on the expedition the next day, it was, after all, a contribution to the destruction of the country!
Which is more important, the destruction of the country or the romance with a beautiful woman... Forget it, this person might really choose the latter.

But this is also one of the reasons why Ying Zheng chose Zhang Ji.

Of course, the most important reason why Ying Zheng chose Zhang Ji also included the desire to check and balance the military's power, but the person Ying Zheng targeted was Zhang Ji, who was given the opportunity to destroy the country.

Wang Ji nodded, and looked at each other with Meng Ao and Wang Jian.

"My lord, second my proposal!"

"Chen Meng Ao, second!"

"My lord, Wang Jian, second my proposal!"

Although they were all envious of this feat of destroying the country, the three Qin generals still agreed with Ying Zheng's choice.

It wasn't because of everyone's daily friendship that they recognized Zhang Ji to take the credit of destroying the country, but because everyone didn't want to take advantage of Zhang Ji in vain.

South Korea's civil strife and decline can almost be said to have been planned by Zhang Ji before he entered the Qin Dynasty as an official.With Zhang Ji's many back-ups deployed in South Korea, no matter which general sends troops, to put it harshly, a dog can win.

But taking down this country-destroying feat also means accepting a favor from Zhang Ji, and it is a huge favor, which can almost make a family do their best for Zhang Ji.

In order to avoid this situation, everyone was willing to take a step back, and Ying Zheng was more inclined to choose Zhang Ji to balance the power of the court.

Yingzheng can still figure out which one is more detrimental to the balance of power in the court, between taking a share of the credit for destroying the country and a full assistance with a general of Qin and his family behind him.

Furthermore, Zhang Ji is not obsessed with power and merit, and he has no ambitions, but this does not mean that he will not be criticized by others in the name of "great achievements" in the future, and this is also for Zhang Ji's own benefit.

Ying Zheng believed that Zhang Ji could understand his kindness, but Ying Zheng was soon disappointed.

Zhang Ji raised his right hand and said weakly under the subtle gazes of everyone: "No one asked me if I was willing to leave my newlywed wife and concubine to attack South Korea?"

"roll!"

The veins on Ying Zheng's forehead popped out, and he couldn't help but threw the inkstone on the desk hard at Zhang Ji, but it didn't hit him.

As soon as Zhang Ji stretched out his hand, he firmly caught the dry black inkstone held by the other party, and put the inkstone into his sleeve with a smile, saluted and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"

Yingzheng's eyelids twitched, and the veins on the back of his hands couldn't help but twitch.

What he just threw out was the Yanji Wujin Inkstone!
"The Meishan Mountain in Yanji produces stones such as black gold, and there are also gold stars that are very good in making inkstones, so they are quite valuable, but there are very few good ones, so they are not known to the world."

The ordinary Yanjiwu Jinyan could not be bought at a price of a thousand dollars, not to mention that the one he just threw out was a high-quality Yanjiwu Jinyan, a gift from the envoy of the Yan Kingdom a few days ago.

The veins on the back of Yingzheng's hands bulged out of anger, and he wanted to throw something more, but he thought it would be cheaper for him, so he couldn't help shouting angrily: "Where is Habayashi Wei!"

"Shoot this guy out with sticks!"

The Yulin guards looked at each other and used the sticks in their hands to drive Zhang Ji away, dumbfounded.

"Fame is not my wish, and the imperial hometown is beyond expectation!"

"What a bunch of vulgar people who only care about fame and wealth!"

Zhang Ji was disheartened by the Habayashi guard behind him with a stick, and couldn't help but turned around and complained to Zhangtai Palace. For a while, even the three generals Wang Yu, Meng Ao, and Wang Jian almost broke their respective positions. The qi-nourishing kung fu gave birth to the urge to beat up Zhang Ji violently.

Just as he was talking, Zhang Ji, who had been driven outside the gate of Zhangtai Palace, suddenly received a solid stick on his butt.

Zhang Ji glared at the owner of the stick. It was Tu Sui who was on duty in the Yulin Army today.

"How dare you, kid, to take advantage of me? Where are you going to hit me? Do you dare to attack me?"

Zhang Ji grabbed Tu Sui by the collar, as if Tu Sui didn't give a reason, he beat up the captain of the Habayashi Army who was regarded as a high-ranking and powerful captain on the spot.

Although Ying Zheng asked the Yu Lin Army to beat Zhang Ji with sticks, the Yu Lin Army were all soldiers led by Zhang Ji. As soldiers on duty in the palace, they all knew how close the relationship between Ying Zheng and Zhang Ji was in private. This messy stick strike was more like annoyance at a friend who got cheap and behaved.

Therefore, no one of the Yulin Guards actually hit Zhang Ji with a stick. The Yulin Guards who can guard Zhangtai Palace where Ying Zheng specializes in handling government affairs are all human beings, and they have the speed in their hands. , the sticks seemed to be swung out. In fact, none of the sticks fell on Zhang Ji, and they all stopped suddenly when they were about to hit Zhang Ji.

And this fellow Tu Sui actually gave him a stick in the ass, with a lot of vigor!

"General, cough! Your Majesty!"

Tu Sui glanced at his head slightly, and motioned Zhang Ji to look at the gate of Zhangtai Palace. Ying Zheng, dressed in a black royal robe, was standing in front of the gate with a murderous look in his hand, holding a potter's wheel sword, and he was about to give someone a blow. The posture of the sword.

"Okay, I guess you still have some conscience."

Zhang Ji patted Tu Sui on the shoulder and immediately kicked Tu Sui on the butt.

Zhang Ji, who has practiced Heng Lian's hard skills to this level, his physical fitness is naturally not inferior at all even if he encounters the armored sect who specializes in external skills. He also used his kick with enough force to knock Tu Sui to the ground. The dog ate shit, and then he patted the non-existent dust in his hands with satisfaction, hummed a little tune and turned around to leave.

Several Habayashi soldiers behind looked at each other in blank dismay, and continued to follow behind Zhang Ji, waving the sticks in their hands.

"The general's temperament is really..."

Tu Sui, who was helped up by Yu Linwei, smiled bitterly and shook his head. He seemed to be very troubled by his general's temperament. He secretly glanced at Ying Zheng, who was standing at the gate of Zhangtai Palace with his sword in hand, and saw Ying Zheng nodded lightly. Then he turned back to Zhangtai Palace and breathed a sigh of relief.

He just went a little too far.

The fight between Ying Zheng, the king of Qin, and Zhang Ji, who is also a teacher and friend, is a matter between only the two of them, and it is definitely not something that Tu Sui can intervene.

And the stick Tu Sui had just reminded Zhang Ji that Ying Zheng had raised his sword and glared at the gate of Zhangtai Palace would make Ying Zheng think too much.

A captain of the Yulin Army secretly reminded the courtiers that King Qin wanted to deal with in front of King Qin. Although it was not a big deal in terms of the relationship between Ying Zheng and Zhang Ji, it would affect Tu Sui's feelings in Ying Zheng's heart to some extent. impression points.

That's why Zhang Ji made that kick!
Tu Sui patted the footprints on his butt. Although his general wanted to help him, he always felt that his general's kick had some intention of retaliating for his stick.

Although... his stick also contained some feelings of envy and resentment towards a guy who was blessed but didn't know how to be blessed, and who boasted that he didn't care about fame and wealth.

Of course, Zhang Ji later realized that Tu Sui's blow with the stick was definitely intentional.However, he is a person who avenges any grudges on the spot and never holds a grudge.

Therefore, after Zhang Ji returned home, he immediately announced that he would kick Tu Sui out of the list of generals who accompanied him in the conquest of South Korea.

It wasn't until Tu Sui came to the door with a heavy gift to make amends, and Zhang Ji gave him another stick, that Zhang Ji graciously forgave Tu Sui, and added him to the list of generals who went to the expedition.

However, after Tu Sui gave a big gift, many people came to visit him with even richer gifts.

Hehe, no one with a discerning eye would think that Zhang Ji was taking advantage of his temper to take revenge on his subordinates, but that he planned to give Tu Sui a chance to make meritorious deeds, and that was why he did this.
