Chapter 635 Xiong Qi Finally Returns Home! The General Returns Triumphantly? First, I Will Reward You with a Set of Jade Belts and Golden Hooks!

As Ying Chengjiao's family soldiers spread Ying Chengjiao's words around, the noise in Xianyang City gradually dissipated, replaced by pairs of stunned eyes.

After a few breaths, a deliberately suppressed whisper came out:

"More than 280,000 beheaded, more than 150,000 merits? Did I hear it wrong just now!"

"I also heard this. With the courage of Chang'an Jun, it is possible for him to lead our Qin warriors to win such a hearty victory, but our Qin only sent 20,000 troops in this battle, and the main force is the Qi army! That is the Qi army that any country in the world can send troops to humiliate!"

"Is this a matter of how much you have gained? The Chu State is dead! As powerful as the Chu State is, it has already died. In the hands of Chang'an Jun!"

"Counting the gains in this battle, Chang'an Jun may have captured more enemy heads than Wu'an Jun in the past! As for the number of countries destroyed, Chang'an Jun's number of destroyed countries is even more than Wu'an Jun can catch up with!"

"I don't know whether Chang'an Jun has gained more or Wu'an Jun has gained more. I only know that Chang'an Jun is only 21, just 21 years old!"

The whispers gradually evolved into noisy sounds, and finally evolved into a deafening noise with the blessing of more than 200,000 people!

Even the court officials who had already heard the battle report of Ying Chengjiao were a little dazed.

The gains of each battle of Judu, Xiapicheng, Pengcheng, Helucheng, and Hangou were not amazing, at least they did not exceed the court officials' imagination of Ying Chengjiao.

But when the battles were added together, it formed a thrilling number!

It also set the end of the Chu State!

Seeing the people in the city getting more and more excited, Mi Chen closed his eyes with complicated eyes, and Li Si bowed without hesitation:

"Congratulations to Chang'an Jun! Congratulations to the king! Congratulations to Daqin!"

Seeing this, other court officials with different thoughts hurriedly bowed:

"Congratulations to Chang'an Jun! Congratulations to the king! Congratulations to Daqin!"

Led by the court officials on the city, more than 200,000 people from Xianyang who came to welcome the triumphant army roared excitedly:

"Congratulations to Chang'an Jun! Congratulations to the king! Congratulations to Daqin!"

Although the noisy and chaotic shouts of more than 200,000 people were difficult to hear, they were deafening!

Listening to the praises and congratulations of the ministers and people, Ying Zheng couldn't help but smile.

When Ying Zheng took power in the past, he once reported to the ancestors in the ancestral temple that Ying Zheng would definitely continue the will of the ancestors to go east, lead the people of Qin to go east through Hangu Pass, and conquer a large territory to announce it to the ancestors!

It has only been four years since then.

Ying Chengjiao not only led the army to go east through Hangu Pass, but also led the people of Qin to attack all the way to the east of the sea, expanding the territory of Qin from the westernmost part of the world to the easternmost part of the world!

The oath that Ying Zheng made in the ancestral temple in the past has now been fulfilled in excess!

And all this is because of Ying Chengjiao's endless conquests!

Ying Zheng wanted to hold back his excitement, but he couldn't help it at all!

Ying Zheng laughed uncontrollably: "I am very pleased!"

"Pass my order!"

"Send the captives! Send the captives!"

Ying Chengqi shouted loudly:

"Send the captives! Send the captives!"

The carriage shook and moved forward along the cracks between the army formations.

Jing Yue, who was wearing gorgeous clothes but had his hands trapped by shackles, was pulled by the carriage to Xianyang City.

Looking up, Jing Yue saw familiar faces.

Jing Yue used to be the Sima Ling of the Great Qin Bus. Although he was not an important official of the Great Qin, he was qualified to stand behind those faces and welcome the triumphant soldiers.

But today, Jing Yue has become a prisoner. He can no longer stand on the top of the city to welcome the triumphant soldiers. Instead, he has become a prisoner of war who is "welcomed"!

When he was captured, Jing Yue struggled hard.

When he returned to Qin, Jing Yue cursed along the way.

But when he really saw his former colleagues standing on the city gate tower, Jing Yue's eyes seemed to be pierced by needles. He lowered his head in panic and even used his shackled hands to clumsily move his hair, trying to cover his face with his hair to prevent his former colleagues from seeing his current panic and desolation.

However, the fact is that the eyes of the Qin monarchs and ministers did not stay on Jing Yue for even a breath.

Everyone's eyes were looking down at the five-horse carriage driving in the front.

The former king's carriage had its roof and rear board removed, and was carrying a huge coffin.

In the coffin with the lid open, the corpse of King Qi of Chu, who had been simply embalmed, looked particularly dazzling!

Looking down at the familiar face that had worked with them for several years or even decades, many of the Chu foreign relatives could not bear to tilt their heads, and Han Cang and other old ministers sighed in a complicated voice.

"It's been less than a year since we last met, but we've already met in different ways!"

"I used to serve under him and was promoted by him, but today, he has... Alas~"

"Xiong Qi resolutely returned to Chu, which not only greatly damaged the strength of our Chu relatives and made them distrusted by the king, but also harmed his own life and even caused the demise of Chu! How stupid! How absurd!"

"Is the throne really that tempting? Can't Xiong Qi learn from Chang'an Jun!"

"Alas~ This person is gone after all, and we should call him King Qi of Chu."

The respected person who was once second only to one person and above ten thousand people in the Qin Dynasty, walked out of Xianyang City last year on a horse with a high attitude.

Today, he was dragged back to Xianyang City in a bleak and miserable coffin.

All the officials of the Qin Dynasty had complicated feelings in their hearts, and finally converged into the same idea.

Served it right!

After the prisoners and spoils were handed over and ears piled up like a mountain, Ying Zheng moved his gaze away from Xiong Qi and spoke loudly: "Order!"

"Drink!"

"Hold a banquet to celebrate the victory and reward the whole army!"

After a pause, Ying Zheng looked around at all the soldiers outside the city and said softly: "Welcome home."

As Ying Zheng, he shouldn't say such words.

He shouldn't say such words in this situation.

But Ying Zheng said it, and ordered the ministers to spread this sentence to the ears of all the victorious soldiers.

The Qin soldiers were a little puzzled.

I haven't reached home yet. Is the king asking me to go to dinner or go home?

But the soldiers from Qi and Chu were stunned and their eyes were red.

No matter why they came, they left their homeland and hometown and became strangers in Xianyang City.

Now, Ying Zheng told them.

This place will be their home in the future!

A broken roar rose from the triumphant army:

"Thank you, Your Majesty!!!"

Ying Zheng smiled gently: "Send the generals into the palace for a banquet."

"Send Prince Chengjiao of Chang'an to serve me."

"Return to the palace!"

Ying Chengjiao's heart was beating fast, but he could only bow: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Instructing Wang Jian to take the soldiers to the palace for the banquet, Ying Chengjiao turned over and dismounted, and stepped into Xianyang City with heavy steps, and saw Ying Zheng had quickened his pace to the city gate.

With a determined heart, Ying Chengjiao lifted the curtain of the five-horse carriage, got into the carriage, and then grinned with a flattering smile: "Look, big brother!"

Grabbing the corner of the cloak, Ying Chengjiao showed his cloak to Ying Zheng: "Snow-white!"

"Not damaged at all!"

"Not even a trace of blood!"

This is the cloak that the palace maids of Helu Palace washed for ten days and was hidden in a box during the whole journey back. It was not put on by Ying Chengjiao until he set out on the expedition.

It is completely different from the cloaks Ying Chengjiao wore in the previous expeditions!

Ying Zheng glanced at the cloak and nodded slightly:

"Hmm."

Ying Chengjiao's smile froze, and he quickly patted the armor on his body: "Look, brother!"

"Brand new!"

"Not even a scratch!"

Ying Zheng glanced at the armor and nodded slightly:

"Hmm."

Ying Chengjiao smiled awkwardly and sat on the couch, saying apologetically: "I know you are short of people."

"So I invited eleven great Confucian scholars, seven hundred Confucian scholars, and the children of many Confucian families to return to Qin."

"These Confucian scholars are different from Those pedantic Confucian scholars are all practical Confucian scholars who can kill enemies on horseback and govern the people on foot."

"Especially the hundreds of children of the Bu family, they are all very good teachers."

"I have asked those children of the Bu family to study the Qin Law. When they have learned it, they can become law officials and then train more talents for my Qin!"

Ying Zheng finally changed color and glared at him: "You still have the nerve to say that!"

Ying Chengjiao hurriedly explained: "Brother, I really didn't think it through in this battle. I accidentally destroyed the Chu State and ruined the whole plan of my Qin State. scheming."

"But it's not my fault!"

"Who would have thought that Chu was so weak and stubborn!"

"I can't just watch the Chu army defend the north of the Huai River because I'm afraid of Chu's demise, and not be able to command them!"

Ying Zheng shouted angrily: "You bastard, do you really think you're wrong here? !"

Ying Chengjiao was slightly startled and blinked: "Otherwise?"

Ying Zheng said in a deep voice: "War is dangerous and ever-changing."

"I and all my ministers have never thought that war will be completely in accordance with The plan of our Great Qin has been developed, and we never thought that the world would be destroyed one by one by our Great Qin in accordance with our Great Qin's plan. "

"The demise of Chu has destroyed our Great Qin's plan and made our Great Qin feel more difficult."

"But the opportunity to destroy a country is so rare. My brother seized the opportunity to destroy the country in this war. I am so happy that I can't wait to get angry about it!"

Ying Chengjiao's destruction of Chu was indeed far beyond Ying Zheng's expectations, smashing the overall strategy arranged by Ying Zheng and causing huge troubles for Ying Zheng and the Great Qin.

But Ying Zheng did not get angry with Ying Chengjiao for this.

War is not a game of house.

Other countries are not lambs to be slaughtered!

If the overall strategy becomes a shackle that binds the generals, how can these shackled generals bring victory to the Great Qin again and again!

Ying Zheng said angrily: "But why do you act recklessly after the war?"

"War belongs to the generals, and diplomacy belongs to the court!"

"My Great Qin has already negotiated with Qi. On the basis of the original remuneration, we will add one million stones of grain and a lot of silk, salt and other things. Qi just asks you to return home quickly without taking away Qi soldiers."

"You actually took away many Qi talents and 50,000 Qi elite soldiers!"

"Do you know how people in the world will look at you!"

Ying Chengjiao hurriedly asked: "Has Qi sent out the additional grain and remuneration it promised?"

Ying Zheng:...

Ying Zheng laughed in anger: "I am worried about your reputation, but you are talking to me about compensation?"

"Think about it, you boy, how dare Qi break the contract!"

Ying Chengjiao breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

"It just so happens that the grain sent by Qi is used to feed the soldiers and horses transported back from Qi."

"As for my reputation?"

"It doesn't matter!"

Finding that Ying Zheng was not angry about the war to destroy Chu, Ying Chengjiao's heart suddenly became agitated: "If I had known that my elder brother had such thoughts, why would I have withdrawn my troops!"

"It just so happens that I was still the left prime minister of Qi at that time!"

"I can recruit soldiers from Chu on the spot, and then lead the coalition army to the north!"

"Even if I have very few soldiers, I still have a chance to destroy Qi."

"In this way, the problem that my Great Qin is worried about the expansion of Qi due to the demise of Chu will be solved!"

Ying Zheng: ...

Leading the soldiers of Qi, eating the food of Qi, and holding the position of left prime minister of Qi, to destroy Qi?

I am worried about your reputation.

But you turned around and came up with such a shameless method?

Ying Zheng's cold voice burst out from his teeth: "Boy!"

While speaking, Ying Zheng's hand had already touched his jade belt and golden hook!
