Qin asked

There is no doubt that for Han Feizi, Yingzheng is determined to win. After all, South Korea is really weak. The entire country is not as large as a county in Qin State. It has become afraid of the powerful Qin State to the point of flattery. It can be said that the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period exist in name only.

Logically speaking, for this kind of opponent, Ying Zheng didn't need to say any nonsense at all. If he threatened Han Wang directly, the other party would definitely send Han Feizi over. Is it important to save face?

However, at this moment, Ying Zheng's plan was disrupted by a bad news - Meng Ao died.

Meng Ao left very suddenly, everyone thought that Meng Ao was just taking a nap, it was Meng Tian who first noticed something was wrong, when he stepped forward to check, Meng Ao was not breathing.

After confirming that it was not assassination or poisoning, Meng Tian finally accepted his grandfather's death. He took over everything in the army with a tough attitude, and then quickly blocked the news, so that his most trusted Ping could report to Ying as quickly as possible. The government notified this matter.

Ying Zheng was silent for a long time after receiving the news. He was ready for Meng Tian to die on the battlefield, but he never thought that the other party would retreat from the stage of the Warring States Period in such a posture. In desperation, Ying Zheng could only let Meng Tian withdraw temporarily. On the front line, as for the threat to South Korea, it is naturally impossible to talk about it.

Although it was a pity not to get Han Feizi, he couldn't let the corpse of Qin's general rot outside.

At the same time, Yingzheng set his sights on the imperial court. Meng Ao, as the first general to stand on the position of Yingzheng, is of great significance. His departure is definitely a huge blow to Yingzheng, although It is said that now Yingzheng has completely controlled the court, but after experiencing several regime crises, Yingzheng undoubtedly has a huge obsession with military power, not to mention his goal is the whole world, which requires more generals .

Wei Liao is a good choice as a staff officer, but what he is good at is strategic goals on a large scale, and small-scale battles like sieges still need someone else to do it.

However, talents like military commanders need a lot of practice. Not everyone is like Wei Liao and Sun Wu who can write handed down military books as well. Yingzheng thoroughly researched the eighteen generations of the civil and military ancestors of the Qin Dynasty, but he couldn't find a credible and capable general.

Although Mo Dou is full of Wang Jian, but at most he can only give guiding instructions to Yingzheng, such as: "Your Majesty, look at this man, the No. 18 grandson of King Zhou Ling, who is the No. [-] grandson of Prince Jin. good."

Ying Zheng raised his face from the pile of bamboo slips, and looked at Mo Dou in confusion. What did he hear just now? It seemed that Mo Dou, who cared the least about family background, recommended a general to him because of someone's blood?

Mo Dou also seemed to know how strange what he said just now, he smiled coyly, but still firmly pushed the bamboo slip in his hand towards Ying Zheng, God knows how long he had been looking for a name like Wang Jian in so many bamboo slips—like this Ethnic genealogy cannot be transferred to paper in a short time.

Ying Zheng silently stared at the name on the bamboo slips. Wang Jian seemed to have a little impression. He heard that the other party loved military books since he was a child. He could give it a try. The most important thing was that Mo Dou specifically mentioned him...

Ying Zheng picked up a pen and added Wang Jian's name to the paper. At this time, the paper was filled with more than a dozen names. That's right, Ying Zheng is now casting a wide net to catch big fish. Recommendations from others will always involve Interests, I personally pick one by one, not to mention the low efficiency, the key is that Ying Zheng himself has never been on the battlefield, he is only a theoretical giant, so he is not sure if the person he picks out will be just a show. Compared with the above methods, it is more effective and intuitive to directly throw one's brains on the battlefield, and it is clear whether it is a mule or a horse.

……

Meng Tian returned to Xianyang a few days ago. After fighting on the battlefield for many years, he has completely faded away from his youthful innocence. His face was full of travel and dust because he sent his grandfather's body back day and night. When he was stopped by soldiers at the gate of the city for inspection It almost made the soldiers cry, but it was Ying Zheng who went out to greet them in person to ease the deadlock.

Then there was no more, Meng Ao passed away, and the whole family of the Meng family had to wear sackcloth and filial piety. In addition, Meng Tian had indeed stayed on the battlefield for too long, and it was time to come back to rest, so Ying Zheng was comforting the Meng family. After that, he focused all his attention on the new general.

Although it was a bit cruel, Ying Zheng had no choice, and the Meng family could only go into hibernation temporarily.

And Meng Tian is having a bad time recently.

After getting used to life on the battlefield, Meng Tian was quite uncomfortable with the current environment. At the moment when he needed the comfort of his relatives the most, his younger brother and mother had an obvious sense of unfamiliarity with him because of years of separation. Coupled with the fact that he was forced to idle, Meng Tian, ​​who had nowhere to vent his emotions, became increasingly irritable.

Especially when seeing Wei Liao during condolences.

Wei Liao came here with Ying Zheng, and Meng Ao, as a hero of Qin, is absolutely obliged to follow Ying Zheng to appear in the mourning hall, even though he has never even seen Meng Ao's face, But Wei Liao and Meng Tian still had friendship.

But in Meng Tian's eyes, there is indeed another scene. Time has passed and the situation has changed. The passers-by in front of the camp before are now the celebrities in front of King Qin. It is impossible to say that Meng Tian doesn't care. Although he knows this is wrong, Meng Tian just can't bear He always resented Wei Liao.

Meng Tian's hostility is obvious. He is the eldest son of the Meng family and a representative of the Qin family's aristocratic family, so the atmosphere at this moment has begun to become subtle. Some diehards who have long been dissatisfied with the emerging foreign powers are gradually approaching Meng Tian, ​​and there is a faint tendency to form a group .

This made Ying Zheng and Mo Dou on one side couldn't help frowning. This was definitely not what they wanted to see. Mo Dou was inconvenient to say more, but Ying Zheng could, so he turned to Wei Liao and asked, "Liao and Mo Dou Did Tian ever have a festival?"

Wei Liao cast a glance at Meng Tian in a refined manner, and said calmly, "Not at all."

"Then why is Tian so displeased with you?"

Wei Liao pondered for a while, regretfully said: "I don't know, maybe let me talk with General Meng alone and we can find out."

talk alone...

Ying Zheng hesitated for a moment, but still agreed, even if Wei Liao planned to join forces with Meng Tian, ​​it would be better than Meng Tian joining forces with aristocratic families, otherwise Ying Zheng would have to consider whether to give up Meng Tian.

Under Ying Zheng's arrangement, Wei Liao soon got a chance to be alone with Meng Tian. Facing Meng Tian's sullen expression, Wei Liao didn't care, and went straight to the point: "General Meng, don't be upset, Liao is innocent too." of."

Meng Tian opened his eyes wide, with a strange expression on his face, to be honest, he didn't understand Wei Liao's words just now: "Innocent what?"

"What Liao means is that Liao didn't want to be the captain of the country," Wei Liao repeated clearly, as if afraid that Meng Tian hadn't heard clearly, "Liao doesn't want to be the captain of the country."

Meng Tian: ...Can he expose the case to this guy's face?Can a person not be so white lotus!

Meng Tian got up abruptly, if he had time to listen to the other party showing off, he might as well go back and preside over his grandfather's mourning hall!

"Liao is telling the truth. The King of Qin has a strong face. He will use any means to achieve his goals. He is tolerant, but he has no benevolence. He is not a master." Wei Liao casually stroked the corner of his clothes and said softly, "Leave earlier. most appropriate."

Although he was quite resentful towards Ying Zheng's abandonment, Meng Tian was still loyal to Ying Zheng. Hearing Wei Liao's words, his brows were raised upright: "Shut up!"

However, Wei Liao didn't listen at all, he continued: "However, the ink fountain has a strange face, which is quite complementary to the King of Qin. As for the others, I can't see through it at the moment."

Meng Tian had already rolled up his sleeves. He approached Wei Liao, grabbed Wei Liao's neck with his left hand, and punched Wei Liao's stomach with his right fist. He had already decided to beat this guy up first, and then throw him out Meng Mansion, even if the king wants to reprimand him, he will admit it.

However, his plan did not succeed, Wei Liao clasped the arms around his neck with both hands, and then exerted force suddenly, a big man weighing nearly 150 catties was thrown onto the desk in front of him, and Meng Tian was smashed to pieces , was captured under Wei Liao's hands.

"As for General Meng, he is a loyal and brave minister from the looks of him. He got his name because of this, but he also lost his life because of it. But since you know that Mo Dou, maybe that's not the case."

Meng Tian couldn't struggle, he held back his temper and asked Wei Liao, "What exactly do you want to say?"

Wei Liao looked down at Meng Tian: "General, would you like to listen to Liao patiently?"

Meng Tian was silent for a while, then nodded, he couldn't beat him, he couldn't speak, what else could he do...

Wei Liao let go of Meng Tian in satisfaction, and he took out a map from his sleeve, which was densely covered with marks, he pointed to a place and said slowly: "General, are you afraid that there will be a rising star in a few years, and that the king will abandon you?" Why not? Liao has found a new opponent for the general."

……

Meng Tian looked at the words Xiongnu on the map, and really couldn't help but want to ask the other party: What is the matter you said about the previous appearance? !
