Wang Jian responded, and then stood up.

Yingzheng asked, "Do you know, Aiqing, what is the reason why you came here today?"

"I don't dare to speculate on what the king thinks in his heart. If there is a need, you will give me an order, and you will not hesitate to put your heart and brains to the ground!"

Wang Jian said solemnly.

A smile appeared on the corner of Ying Zheng's mouth, and he said, "I came to you today mainly for one thing."

Wang Jian cupped his hands and said, "Please give me your orders, Your Majesty!"

Ying Zheng took two steps ahead, and then said: "Now Han, Zhao, and Wei have all become part of the Great Qin, and the Yan Kingdom is also in the pocket of the widow, and it is easy to get.

In addition, there are only two countries left, Qi and Chu.Among them, Chu State is the most difficult to deal with.However, if the land of Chu is also captured, then the unification of the Great Qin will not be far away.

So the widow decided to send troops to attack Chu in half a year. I wonder if Qing is willing to lead the army? "

Ying Zheng looked at each other and asked a question.

Hearing the question, Wang Jian didn't hesitate at all, just knelt down on one knee, and responded, "The last general is willing to be driven by the king, to expand the territory and build an inexhaustible achievement!"

"Haha, good! Aiqing is worthy of being the number one general of the Qin Dynasty!"

Ying Zheng was obviously in a very good mood at this time.

After a word of praise, he then asked: "Qing once led 30 sharp soldiers to defeat the State of Zhao. I wonder how many troops will be needed to attack the State of Chu?"

Wang Jian thought for a while after hearing the words, and then replied: "Your Majesty, Chu is a powerful country with a larger land area and population than Zhao. If we want to win steadily, we need an army of 60!"

Hearing this, the former raised his eyebrows, and the smile on his face restrained a little, and he said, "60? It's too much."

60 is not a small number. Even if Qin Guobing is in full swing, it is difficult to produce so many soldiers and horses now.

You must know that the Qin State has successively occupied Han, Zhao, Wei, and most of the land of Yan State.With the expansion of the land, it is natural to continuously send troops to various places to guard, otherwise problems will easily arise.

In addition, soldiers must be mobilized to guard the frontier to guard against the Yuezhi and Qiang people in the west and the Huns in the north.Moreover, the Lishan mausoleum is also being stepped up for construction, and a lot of manpower and material resources have been requisitioned.

Gathering an army of 60 under such circumstances would definitely be a very stressful thing...

Ying Zheng frowned and thought for a while, then said: "60 is impossible, I can send 30 soldiers to participate in this war."

Wang Jian's complexion changed slightly, and he said seriously: "Your Majesty, 30 is really too little. Based on the general's understanding of Chu, if he wants to capture it, he needs at least 50!"

Ying Zheng said expressionlessly: "I will give you 30 soldiers at most."

"Your Majesty, 35 yuan..."

Wang Jian still wanted to fight for it, but was interrupted directly by Ying Zheng.

"Don't bargain with the widow, just say 35 is 35!"

Seeing his king's resolute expression, Wang Jian also knew that he couldn't persuade him.

Then he took a step back, knelt on the ground, and said, "If there are only 35 soldiers, then I beg your pardon, there is nothing you can do!"

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "Are you blackmailing me?"

Wang Jian kowtowed and said, "The last general dare not!"

"Whenever we go out to battle, many soldiers will die in battle. Thinking about the end of the war will hurt your heart. I don't intend to offend the king, but I just hope that the sons who accompanied me to Chu this time will be able to do more. A few people came back alive!"

To be honest, he didn't want to disobey the other party's wishes unless he had to.But this matter is no small matter, Chu State is still very strong, and it must not be taken lightly.

Wang Jian has always been cautious in using troops, and likes to seek victory while maintaining stability.If there are only 35 people, he does not have much confidence in defeating Chu.

Even if he really wins, it must be a tragic victory. I don't know how many soldiers will be bloodied on the battlefield, shrouded in horse leather.

This is what Wang Jian does not want to see.

For this reason, he would rather risk being punished than raise objections.

Hearing these words, Ying Zheng's face became even more gloomy, but he didn't reprimand him, but just watched quietly.

Wang Jian didn't dare to say more, and still maintained the posture of prostration. For a while, both sides fell silent, and the air fell into silence.

After a few breaths, Ying Zheng flicked his sleeves, turned around and said indifferently: "Since that's the case, Gu won't force you, go down."

"promise."

Wang Jian didn't say anything more, and he backed out with a sigh in his heart.

He knew that no matter how much he persuaded him at this time, it would be useless. The great victories filled his heart with confidence.

But the reality will not change because of people's thoughts. As a top general, he knows the strength of Chu State very well.

If the other party clears up all the foundations of the family, at least 40 troops can be assembled. In addition, it also has a vast land area and many passes. If it is defended wholeheartedly, it will be difficult to take it down.

According to his judgment, sending 60 troops can secure victory, and the loss will not be too great. 50 can also win, but it will be more difficult.And if it is lower than this number, then the chances of winning will be greatly reduced.

It's just that the current Yingzheng is in high spirits, and he can't listen to these words. Only when he hits a wall will he look back and reflect on himself.

Seeing the other party's respectful exit from the hall, Ying Zheng couldn't help but snorted coldly. In his opinion, the other party was just drifting away, and he didn't take himself seriously because of his great achievements.

Daqin is full of talented people. Could it be that without Wang Jian, he can't beat the stick?

Meng Tian, ​​Li Xin, Yang Duanhe, these are all first-class generals, and each of them can play their own role.

This time he sent Li Xin and Wang Ben to the Yan Kingdom, and he also wanted to focus on training each other. If they can perform better in this war, they will definitely be reused.

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng's expression changed, and an idea popped up in his mind.

"How about, let Li Xin try in the battle of extermination..."

While Ying Zheng was thinking about attacking Chu, such a scene was happening in an exquisite courtyard in Danyang City in Chu.

A beautiful and noble woman was sitting on a stool, looking at a small shoe that had just been made in her hand, with a happy smile on her face.

This person is Concubine Yan.

And next to her was a toddler.

This child is less than one year old, with a pair of beautiful big eyes that are bright and jewel-like, with exquisite facial features and fair and delicate skin, making it look cuter than a porcelain doll.

If you observe carefully, you will find that her eyebrows and small nose are somewhat similar to Ye Chen.

The girl was learning to walk with great interest, and she was still babbling as if she was talking about something, but because she was too young, she couldn't speak clearly for the time being.
