My brother is the most handsome man in the Qin Dynasty

"stop fighting!"

Without raising his head or rolling his eyes, Ying Cheng looked at the map and said in a deep voice.

The generals who seemed to be about to fight in the next second were all silent, with dissatisfaction on their faces.

Wen has no first, Wu has no second.

Lian Po, a veteran with seniority, age and good record, could not convince the Qin warriors just by talking white teeth.

Ying Chengqiao drew a line on the map with his index finger. From Linji on the bank of the Yellow River to Daliang, which was restored as the capital of Wei, there were no mountains.

Conquer Linji and have a smooth journey.

With his index finger upside down, Ying Chengyu tapped Linji and looked up at the generals Zhao Tuo, Li Xin and Tu Sui who were leading the battle.

Point to Li Xin.

"Li Xin, if you come first, how long will it take to capture Linji?"

Under the gaze of the second emperor, Li Xin frowned in thought for a moment, then clasped his fists and replied:

"More than a month."

He originally wanted to say within half a month, but he changed his mind temporarily because he recalled that when he attacked Chu, he made a big statement, which caused 200,000 Qin troops to bury their bones. Longxi Marquis of Chu State was much more cautious this time.

But even so, some people still think it is arrogant.

"Ignorant boy! Zhao Kuo is second!"

A sneer, followed by an old sonorous voice.

"If you can conquer Linji in two months, I will give you my head!"

The veteran patted the table and mocked. He saw in Li Xin the shadow of Zhao Kuo who single-handedly sent Zhao Guo into the abyss.

After staying in the Chang'an Junfu for several years, his evaluation of the younger generation of Qin generals was the same as Li Mu's, with each generation being worse than the last.

"I told you that the Linji in front of you is comparable to Handan a few years after the Battle of Changping. Bai Qi said he was invincible, how are you compared to Bai Qi?"

The veteran knew that he shouldn't speak at this time unless the Second Emperor pointed his finger at him, but he really didn't want to see the mistakes of the Changping Battle happen again.

When the King of Zhao sent Zhao Kuo to take over the military power, if he insisted on his own opinion, he would say "The general will be outside, and the king's orders will not be accepted."

He may die from King Zhao's suspicion, but before he dies, at least Zhao will never be defeated, and those two hundred thousand sons will not be buried alive.

The veteran judged that if he really wanted to attack Linji at all costs.

The best case scenario is that it will be difficult to make further progress in half a year.

Judging from the battle situation just now, the Wei army guarding here is obviously well prepared and ready for a long battle.

The worst case scenario is that the entire Great Qin is dragged to death here.

The longer the stalemate in Linji continues, the more dangerous it becomes. Once the remnants of the Six Kingdoms discovered that the Qin army could be blocked and unable to advance even an inch, they lost their fear of Qin and united to reinforce Linji. At that time, instead of attacking Linji, they would retreat to Hangu.

The second emperor did not ask whether to fight or not, but directly asked Li Xin how long it would take to defeat him, which already showed his attitude.

The King of Qin was a hundred times more famous than the King of Zhao, and the veteran general could not just watch the second emperor make mistakes.

Li Xin suppressed his anger and looked at the second emperor. Seeing that the second emperor had no intention of stopping, he immediately responded with a sneer without showing any signs of weakness.

"If Wei Wuji hadn't stolen the talisman to save Zhao, Handan would have been destroyed countless times!"

He took a step closer to Lianpo and pressed forward:

"The captain himself said that if there were no reinforcements, Handan would not be able to defend it in the end!"

"cannot!"

The veteran always had something to say. When the women of Zhao State got married that year, few could find a man who was higher than the ideal.

No matter how united the Zhao State is, no matter how determined it is to fight to the death, it cannot rely on the weak old, weak, women and children to withstand the fierce tiger and wolf army of the Qin Dynasty.

The old but strong, promiscuous veteran had a cold look on his face and took a few steps forward, almost touching Li Xin's face.

"The reinforcements were not there on the first day. Before the reinforcements arrived, Wang Ling led 300,000 Qin troops to surround Handan for two years!

"Handan will definitely be defeated, but that will be at least two years later! How can you have the courage to think that you can defeat Linji in more than a month?"

Without waiting for Li Xin's answer, the veteran turned around and bowed.

"Your Majesty! This time we have to fight the rebellion with great speed. We want to show that the Qin Dynasty is unstoppable and the rebels should be afraid of themselves. They must not be trapped in Linji!" Ying Cheng frowned and moved his fingers around Linji on the map, drawing a curve.

Where that curve passes, there are mountains and rivers.

Abandoning Linji not only gave up a city, but also gave up the main road connecting the city.

"I know what you mean, but marching like this will get twice the result with half the effort."

"His Majesty!"

"No need to say anything more."

Shaking his head and interrupting the veteran general's speech, the second emperor met everyone's eyes amid the joy of Li Xin, Tu Sui, Zhao Tuo and other radical generals, stretched out three fingers, and said seriously:

"The remaining months are too long. I only give you three days. Is there anyone who can defeat Linji? Whoever defeats Linji will be credited with the first victory in quelling the rebellion."

Li Xin's proud expression froze.

[Three three three? Three days? ? ]

Tu Sui's eyes widened, he choked on his saliva, coughed repeatedly, and was speechless.

Three days? Even a radical like him thinks it's too radical!

Only the young general Zhao Tuo, when he heard the word "First Merit", his blood surged up and his face turned red as he tried his best to prove himself.

Feeling that God had given him a great responsibility, he clasped his fists and bowed his head, saying with great excitement:

"Mojiang Ke! Ah!"

Before he finished speaking, the young general who was kicked hard and lying on the ground turned back angrily and roared:

"Ren Xiao!"

If Ren Xiao hadn't been the junior general's superior, led the young general, and taught the young general, the young general would not greet him with his mouth, but with his fists and feet.

Ren Xiao, who had not regained his legs yet, did not even look at the young general and said in a deep voice:

"If your Majesty must destroy Linji, you have a plan.

"We are driving a wedge between Wei Jiu and Zhou Shi. We are clamoring to hear that Zhou Shi has all the power, but he spreads the news in Daliang that Zhou Shi is staying behind closed doors and intends to establish himself as the King of Wei."

Those who are older in the field will stop at that point.

Qin's alienation tactics were used many times. In the Battle of Changping, Zhao Kuo was replaced by Lian Po, and in the Battle of Handan, Li Mu was killed.

If Linji cannot be solved, then Zhoushi who guards Linji will be solved.

The veteran Lian Po felt sad, but he had to admit that this was a good strategy.

"Lian Po seconded the proposal."

Meng Tian thought for a while, then stepped out of the queue and cupped his fists.

"Meng Tian seconded the proposal."

Tu Sui, who keeps coughing, befriends Ren Xiao.

"Ahem, Tu Sui, cough, Tu Sui second the motion."

"..."

Within the big tent, voices of support arose one after another. Radicals and conservatives reached an agreement. This pre-war meeting seemed to be coming to an end.

When no one spoke again, the second emperor shook his head.

"I don't agree. It's a long way to Daliang and I can't afford to wait.

"If none of you can defeat the city in three days, then this achievement belongs to me. Don't say that I steal your military merit."

All the generals looked at each other.

They knew that the Second Emperor was no layman in fighting the war.

On the contrary, with the Second Emperor's record, being a general is more than enough.

It has been less than half a year since the first battle between the Xiongnu and the Huns, and all the generals have long known the details.

The two emperors were good at trickery, surprise, and running attacks with their troops.

The battlefield is in the desert, and he is a well-deserved famous general.

But three days is too short, right?

Besides, siege warfare is not a field battle.

The tricks of attacking in the east and the cavalry in armor are useless here.

From ancient times to the present, siege warfare is the most unscrupulous. As long as you can't alienate people's hearts, you can only fight hard.
