Guard of His Majesty the First Emperor

Chapter 57, The Horse Stepping on the Yellow Sand

Xia Wuju was wondering if he should tell Ying Zheng that Lu Buwei was looking for him.Although I don't know how Lu Buwei noticed it, but with his keenness, if Ying Zheng is a little more cautious here, things that were not sure will be sure.

"Miraculous doctor Xia, what are you doing here?" Someone suddenly called out.

Xia Wuju looked up, only to find that it was thousands and thousands.

"Why are you so lazy?" Xia Wuju asked, "Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on Li Si?"

Wan Qianbai straightened his face and said, "I just saw you, at Xiangbang's place."

Xia Wuju's face turned pale, and he asked, "Did you see it?"

"What did Xiangbang say to you?" Wan Qianbai "flyed" from the beam to Xia Wuju's side.

"It's nothing. Don't ask any more." Xia Wuju said, "You should go to Li Si's place quickly. There is no one in Xiangbang's house right now, but the security will be stricter after a while."

"Don't worry about that, I'll be fine!" Wan Qianbai was very confident, "You don't have to hide it from me, I know everything about the king. Are you going to tell the king what you did?"

"Why, do you have another opinion?" Xia Wuju felt that it would be better for one more person to think of a way with him than to think by himself.

"You should tell the king about this! If you don't tell the king, it will be hard to hide it when he comes back in the future." Who this "he" is is self-evident.

"Let me think again!"

......

After thinking about it all night, Xia Wuju finally figured it out, it's better for him to be frank.Just in case is better than being caught off guard.

Figured it out, Xia Wuju should also enter the palace.

"Miraculous Doctor Xia, Your Majesty is looking for you." When the medicine hut was ready to go to find Ying Zheng, the palace servants beside Ying Zheng came over.

"I'll go right away, you go back first!" Xia Wuju said.

-

"Xia Wuju, come and help me see!" Seeing Xia Wuju, Ying Zheng hastily pulled him to his side.

Xia Wuju was a little confused, what was this formation going to do?

Ying Zheng pulled him over to look at the map.

"Look here, this is the border of my Great Qin, which is adjacent to South Korea." Ying Zheng said, "You should have been to this place, right?"

Xia Wuju nodded and said: "I have been here before." He still doesn't know why he was asked to see here.

"The widow has read from ancient books that this piece of land is no better than other places, where a horse cannot walk on it. Since you have read it, is it true?" Ying Zheng asked.

"..." Xia Wuju thought about it for a long time, and said, "It's true in my memory, and there is no other reason, it's just because the land here is wet, and people can sink their feet when they go up. .”

"If that's the case, we can easily retreat from the enemy." Ying Zheng said with excitement on his face.

If it is really feasible, then there will be double happiness soon: the first happiness will win the army and kill the prestige of the five countries; the second happiness will only have a relationship with Ying Zheng himself, and Arthur will come back soon.

Although he didn't know what Yingzheng was thinking, Xia Wuju still said, "Your Majesty, although that place is the border of our Great Qin Dynasty, it is very close to South Korea. If you know it, I'm afraid they will know it too."

"It's okay, and I didn't want to let the soldiers of the five countries be fooled into attacking." Ying Zheng said, "I, Daqin, will never retreat. Attacking is always the best defense."

Xia Wuju nodded his head half-understood, he didn't care about these things, and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to report."

"you say!"

"The minister was taken away by Xiangbang yesterday."

"Take it away?" Ying Zheng was surprised at first, and then furious, "You belong to the widow, yet Lu Buwei took you away blatantly. Is he going to challenge the widow openly?"

Xia Wuju said, "That's probably not the meaning. Xiangbang just asked the minister some questions."

"What's the problem?" Ying Zheng asked, frowning.

"Xiangbang was asking about your relationship with the queen, and he also mentioned Arthur." It was already very clear at this point, Xia Wuju didn't say it directly, he thought Ying Zheng should understand.

"So he really guessed it?" Ying Zheng felt a little embarrassed, "No wonder he persuaded the widow to find some beauties to enter the palace."

"Your Majesty, don't worry for the time being. I told Xiangbang about your physical condition. For the sake of your health, Xiangbang won't find someone for you again." up.

"That would be the best!" Ying Zheng said, "You did a good job this time. But remember, behave more naturally in front of Lu Buwei, and let him affirm your words. As for Arthur, the widow will From an arrangement."

"No!" Xia Wuju's tone of voice was a little brisk.

......

On the border of Daqin, in Wang Jian's army tent.

"The king's order in Xianyang City has come." Wang Jian looked at the people under him and said.

Now in the army, Wang Jian is the commander-in-chief, Wang Jian's son Wang Ben is the general on the right, and Arthur, the king's favorite, is the general on the left. The three of them cooperate tacitly and get along well.

Arthur has never read military books or delved into the art of war, but he is not ignorant of warfare. Sometimes his ideas are more flexible, and sometimes his ideas are more appreciated by Wang Jian than Wang Ben's.

This time the situation was reported back to Xianyang because Arthur came up with a solution.

"Your Majesty said that this matter is feasible, so let us decide for ourselves." Wang Jian directly stated the general idea of ​​Ying Zheng's will, "It's just that Arthur, please tell everyone your thoughts. I just listened to your ideas. It doesn't count." .”

Arthur nodded and said: "The soldiers of the Great Qin and the soldiers of the Five Kingdoms are not far away, but they are deadlocked because of the road that is impossible for horses. In the long run, no matter how powerful our Great Qin is, the rear will not be able to compare with those of the Five Kingdoms." Food and grass are plentiful. If you can't defend, then you can only attack."

As Arthur was talking, Wang Ben interrupted him: "General Zuo is right, but the road is short, but after the trek, how can my soldiers from the Great Qin fight against the powerful armies of the Five Kingdoms? After all, horses can't travel."

Arthur smiled and said: "Don't worry, General Right. Since I brought up this matter, I have thought about how to make the horses walk. Although the land is wet, it is not a swamp after all, and the horse's hooves will not sink deeply." Wouldn’t it be better if sandbags were tied to the horse’s hooves?”

This idea is good, but if the horse is tied with sandbags in addition to the horseshoe, will it affect the horse's walking?If so, the gain outweighs the loss.

Wang Ben raised this question again.

Arthur said: "That's why I said to take a small team to test the experiment. If it works, we won't have to stay here for long."

Everyone felt that Arthur's idea was very feasible.It's just that who will go is still up for debate.After all, Arthur's status is special, he was sent by the king himself, so there should be no mistakes for him.

The same is true of Wang Jian's thinking, so he did not directly agree to Arthur's request, but said that the matter will be discussed later.Arthur could only agree.

The author has something to say: It is purely fabricated. I have never experienced wars, let alone ancient wars, and I don’t know how to write them at all.But if you think about it, ancient wars depended entirely on people, and it must have been very cruel. I can't write it out, so just take a look at it.
