Chapter 80 The Return of the Generals
"Your Majesty Yingming!"
The important officials in the court of Chu State hurriedly flattered and said, Qu Boyong was full of sadness when he saw it, and only Chu King Xiong Huai felt the benefit.
People from the three major families of the Chu state, like Qu Boyong, felt sad in their hearts. The state of Chu was no longer the state of Chu in the period of King Wei of Chu.
The state of Chu is already declining, and it can only be supported by the three families of the Qu family, the Zhao family, and the Jing family in Chu.
The rest of these so-called important officials of the imperial court could not be counted on at all.
But the king can't see this yet. When will the Chu country become truly powerful, and will no longer be strong outside and in the middle, is it really necessary to carry out a comprehensive bone scraping treatment like the Qin country?
But at this time, Qu Boyong's heart was full of worries, not only about the fate of Chu, but also about his own son.
Since this period of time, Qu Boyong has never seen his second son, Qu Yuan.
It was only after he sent someone to investigate that he found out that his son actually disappeared for no apparent reason after he took his sweetheart to the border between Qin and Chu near Wuguan some time ago.
Qu Boyong knew in his heart that his son Qu Yuan had probably been kidnapped by the soldiers of the Qin army wandering nearby.
As for saying that his son Qu Yuan was killed Qu Boyong 10,000 do not believe, Qu Boyong knows Qu Yuan's intelligence.
Once his life is in danger and he cannot resist, Qu Yuan will definitely reveal his family background.
At that time, both the generals of the Qin army and the soldiers of the Qin army will not hurt Qu Yuan because of their existence as a general of the Chu state, so as to gain leverage for the future negotiations between the Qin state and the Chu state.
"General Qu, according to the old general's opinion, who should send troops to go there this time?"
"Wang Ling, the defender of Wuguan, is a tough opponent. With 70,000 soldiers of the Qin army and Wuguan Tianmo, if the generals are incompetent, I am afraid that the 300,000 army will not be able to help Wang Ling!"
King Xiong Huai of Chu said that as the lord of a country, he is naturally very interested in Wuguan, which was originally the territory of Chu State, and he has a lot of understanding. Naturally, he knows that Wangling is not easy to deal with.
"Back to the king, this time, the old minister is willing to lead the troops to go out in person!"
Qu Boyong said, this statement directly caused an uproar in the court of Chu.
"The old general is no good, the old general is the pillar of the country, how can you move it lightly?"
"As a veteran of the three dynasties, the old general has devoted himself to my Chu country. Now that he is old, how can a few people have the heart to let the old general wear armor again?"
Xiong Huai hurriedly said that although Xiong Huai was a little dull and stupid, he still knew who was really kind to him in the courtroom.
It is definitely Qu Boyong, the leader of the Qu family, a branch of the Chu royal family, and they are all from their own family, so it also makes Chu King Xiong Huai trust the Qu family.
"Reporting to the king, it seems that Wang Ling, the guardian of Wuguan, does not have many brilliant records in the Qin army, but he is a warrior who has risen step by step with military merit."
"And there are 70,000 soldiers of the Qin army in hand, and the old minister sent people to spy on Wang Ling's intelligence before, and found that this person is fighting steadily and steadily. If he is not sure of winning, he will not lead the army to attack!
"In the past, the battle seemed to be extremely rigid, but once you seize the opportunity, you will launch a thunderous strike to directly defeat the opponent. With this person sitting in Wuguan, it will be even more difficult for the Chu country to take down Wuguan!"
"Therefore, only the old minister takes command in person. As long as there is news from within Qin that the King of Qin is willing to cede the land, the old minister will lead an army of 300,000 elites to Wuguan and open up the passage to the north for our Chu country!"
Qu Boyong said, in fact, if possible, Qu Boyong is not willing to lead the army to go out in person, after all, his body is no longer allowed.
But it has to be like this. In fact, Qu Boyong has a better candidate in his heart - Jingjia Jingcui!
Thinking of this person, even Qu Boyong couldn't help sighing. The talent of this young man from the Jing family may have surpassed his own.
If Jing Cui led the army this time, and the State of Chu would not hold back and ensure sufficient and timely supplies of food, grass and ordnance, the State of Chu would have at least 80% confidence in winning Wuguan.
However, the name Jing Cui was taboo in the court of Chu State, and even Qu Boyong, an important official of the State of Chu, could not easily mention it.
Jing Cui's original exploits were indeed able to shine in the world, but helplessly committed one of the most taboo things of the king, that is, disrespecting the decree!
I think that the King of Chu ordered Jing Cui to lead the army of Chu State to return to Chu State many times, but Jing Cui still went his own way. Although he almost destroyed Qin State in the end, he also had the right to accept the orders of foreign monarchs.
But it also violated a taboo in the heart of the king no matter where he was.
Jingcui was almost beheaded after returning to the state of Chu. If the three major families of the state of Chu, headed by him, had not desperately pleaded for mercy, Jingcui, a world-famous young talent, would have perished.
But even so, Jing Cui returned to Jing's house after being deprived of his military service.
It seems to have fallen into depression, but as long as anyone with insight can see the shocking edge hidden under Jing Cui's incompetent appearance.
"Oh, okay, but the old general shouldn't be reluctant this time. You don't need to wear armor directly as before, you just need to be in command of the central army."
"Send an order to the Qin envoy, and the King of Qin's great ceremony, I, the State of Chu, will arrive as scheduled!"
Xiong Huai sighed and said, "If it wasn't necessary for the current situation, Xiong Huai really didn't want Qu Boyong, the pillar of the Chu State, to lead the army.
The order of the King of Chu was quickly transmitted to the post house after passing through the palace of the King of Chu, and the envoys of the Qin State set off from Yingdu on their way back to the State of Qin after receiving the reply from the King of Chu.
Not long after the Qin envoys left Yingdu, another group of people came out from the city gate of Yingdu, but they went in a different direction.
This group of people is Qu Boyong and others. This time, they got the tiger talisman issued by the King of Chu and went to the Chu army camp to mobilize the army.
...
Half a month later, the capital of Qin State - Xianyang City!
At this time, a burst of sand and dust suddenly rolled up from the left and right directions under the Xianyang city, and two groups of troops with hundreds of Qin army iron cavalry suddenly appeared from the left and right directions.
The two groups of troops were the general of Daqin, Ying Ji, who returned from the northern Xinjiang, and the first warrior of Daqin, Ying Hua, who returned from the land of Bashu, and the troops of Bashu's general Sima Cuo, who returned from the land of Bashu.
The two groups of people met directly under the city of Xianyang. Whether it was Sima Cuo, Ying Ji or Ying Hua, they couldn't help but show a vicissitudes of temperament, but the majesty of a general on the three did not diminish in the slightest.
The northern Xinjiang where Ying Ji and Ying Hua are stationed is not only to protect the safety of Daqin, but also to protect the safety of the Chinese nation.
Sima Cuo also wanted to defend against the alien races on the grasslands in the northwest. In the war against alien races all the year round, from a distance, you could feel a sturdy aura from the three of them, which made people daunting!
"Haha, General Sima, I haven't seen each other for many years since Xianyang parted, General Sima stay safe!"
