Chapter 2 The Triumph Return

The capital of Qi State, Linzi, and the palace of Qi State.

The Queen, King Jian of Qi and Empress Xusheng of the Prime Minister were here, and were discussing how to leave the envoys to come to Qin to congratulate him.

"This Qin Yiren is really amazing. He not only wiped out millions of Huns, but also destroyed Lin Hu, Loulan, Lou Fan, Hunxie, and Xiushu. Even the Qiang, the old enemy who had been in trouble for hundreds of years, was destroyed by him. Well, that's not all, he also conquered the Western Regions." The queen sighed with emotion and told everything Qin Yiren did.

"Yes, this Qin Yiren is really a talent." King Jian of Qi also sighed and said, "At the time, he held the ceremonial ceremony of typing talents in Handan and won the first place. I thought he had a false reputation but was just a quick-witted person. Now I think about it, how ridiculous I am."

At that time, when Qin Yiren won the world's number one scholar, although he was famous all over the world, many people did not take him seriously, such as Ju Xin, thinking that he was just a good-mouthed person. In the Warring States Period, there were too many famous scholars who had to look for quick-talking. For example, Mencius, no one took Qin Yiren seriously.

"I know this Qin Yiren is really a talented person." Hou Sheng was proud and looked very sensible. Although he was boasting, he had to say that he was not all boasting, because he had worked with Qin Yiren several times and was very happy.

"Qin Yiren has expanded the land for thousands of miles, and Qin has a wider territory, more numerous people, more abundant resources, and more powerful Qin's strength. More importantly, Qin has no worries and can move eastward with all his might, and the world's general trend will change!" The Queen is worthy of being a famous queen, and has a unique vision. She has seen Qin become stronger and will make the world's general trend change drastically.

"At this time when Qin Yiren was in charge, Da Qi must prepare a generous gift, send envoys to Qin, and congratulate the King of Qin." The queen immediately made a decision and said, "The Qin and Qi are far apart, and there is no dispute over interests, so you must make good friends."

"No." King Jian of Qi and Housheng accepted the order in unison.

The capital of Yan State, Ji City, and Yan State Palace.

King Xi of Yan and a group of ministers were present. They all looked surprised and had deep eyebrows.

"This Qin Yiren is really amazing. He is so good at fighting. He has won so many victories, which has made Qin expand the land thousands of miles." King Xi of Yan couldn't help but suck cold Zi, and said with a look of fear: "This is really amazing. Qin has obtained so many horses from the mouth of the land. Qin will be even more powerful. How should the Great Yan deal with it?"

Qin Yiren launched troops to fight. It took a year and a half and achieved great results. The national strength of Qin has been greatly improved, and the threat to Yan State is even greater. It is impossible to be afraid of King Xi of Yan.

"Your Majesty, Da Yan is far away from Qin. Even if Qin wants to deal with Da Yan, it will take some years. We have time to plan, and this is not the most urgent matter." A minister immediately said: "The most urgent matter for Da Yan at the moment is to send envoys to Qin and congratulate the King of Qin."

"Yes, lord." The ministers immediately agreed.

"This congratulation is inevitable." King Xi of Yan focused his head and said, "Last time we asked Qin for help and asked Qin to send troops to help me fight Donghu. Although Qin did not send troops, he only sent an envoy to Donghu, but it made Donghu a lot of money and not disturb our borders. Before we could thank the King of Qin for his good intentions, we prepared a heavy gift, and it must be heavy."

Qin State is very far apart from Donghu, and it is impossible to send troops to attack Donghu. However, after receiving a request from King Xi of Yan, King Zhao of Qin still sent an envoy to Donghu to intimidate Donghu. Donghu was very scared and dared not disturb the Yan border again.

At that time, Qin Yiren had just wiped out millions of the Huns. The Qin State's military power was in full swing, and Donghu had to be afraid.

The capital of Chu State, Ying, Chu State Palace, Chao Hall.

King Kaoli of Chu wore a crown and a robe, sitting upright on the throne, brows were deeply locked and worried.

Not only King Kaollie of Chu was worried, but also ministers like Chunshen, who were not worried?

Nothing else, it was just because Qin Yiren was in charge, which had a particularly strong impact on Chu State. King Kaoli, who had always been proud of his great land and wealth, could no longer rest assured.

Among the seven Warring States, Chu was the most vast, with the largest population and the most abundant resources. In terms of overall strength, it was definitely the first in the seven Warring States countries, surpassing Qin. Although the Chu family controlled the national affairs and made a good Chu state split and each of them did their own affairs, they could not defeat Qin, but their strength was beyond doubt.

In the past, although Chu could not defeat Qin, it relied on its vast territory and strategic depth to retreat. For example, Bai Qi captured the old capital of Chu and burned the royal tomb of Chu. However, Chu could move far away and avoid Qin's troops. Although the losses were heavy, Chu was still Chu.

What is the reason? The reason is that although Qin State is strong, its overall strength is not as strong as Chu State. It can only severely damage Chu State, but cannot destroy Chu State, and it cannot fundamentally pose a threat to Chu State.

In history, Qin Shihuang ranked the destruction of Chu very far behind, and this is the reason. If Qin Shihuang had destroyed Chu as soon as he came, instead of being behind, Qin would not have been able to destroy Chu at all. Qin Shihuang could destroy Chu, so it would be possible to destroy Chu when Qin Shihuang could destroy several countries. With stronger strength, it would be possible to destroy Chu.

Now, the success of Qin Yiren's war has made Qin's country wider, more population, and more abundant resources. In a word, the overall strength of Qin's country has increased dramatically, which is similar to that of Qin Shihuang's destruction of Chu in history, and has posed a huge threat to Chu.

If Qin used troops to Chu at this time, it would no longer be a heavy blow, but could destroy Chu. This is the biggest crisis that Chu has faced since the history of Chu. King Kaoli of Chu must be anxious, and ministers like Chunshen Jun must be worried.

"Qin Yiren launched troops to fight this time and conquered large tracts of land. He got a lot of mouths and more horses. This is a disaster for the Great Chu, not a blessing for the Great Chu. The Great Chu is facing an unprecedented crisis. You all tell me what to do about it?" King Kaoli of Chu was also a shrewd person. He knew very well how much Qin Yiren's expedition would improve the national strength of Qin, which put the State of Chu in an unprecedented crisis.

The ministers, you look at me, I look at you, and I answered speechlessly.

If it were in the past, they would have said that this was not the same thing. No matter how strong Qin is, he would not be able to do anything to Chu. Who said that Chu is vast? If you can't defeat Qin, will you still run away?

Now, they dare not say that. With Qin's current national strength, Qin will chase him wherever he runs, and will never give up until he destroys Chu.

"Mr. Chunshen, do you have something to say?" King Kaolio saw the ministers pursing their lips tightly, afraid of making a sound, and knew that they were helpless and had to ask Mr. Chunshen.

Chunshenjun was a fool. He was able to become the Lingyin because he was a child of the Huang family of the aristocratic family and had a good personal relationship with King Kaollie of Chu, not because he had extraordinary talents.

At this time, Chunshen Jun was helpless and said, "Your Majesty, you should give congratulations to Qin. As for the plan to safeguard the Chu, we still have some time to plan slowly."

Upon hearing this, a trace of disappointment flashed in King Kaoli's eyes and said, "That's all. This time, the gifts you have prepared must be heavy, and heavy. Well, you must be humble and do not anger the King of Qin."

He was very worried and repeatedly reminded him, fearing that one would be bad and anger King Zhao of Qin to cause a huge disaster for Chu State.

The capital of Zhao State, Handan, Zhao State Palace.

King Zhao Xiaocheng stood in a daze, feeling like he was overwhelmed and regretted: "This Qin Yiren is really amazing. If I had known this, I would have killed him back then."

Qin Yiren was once the hostage to Zhao and was a prisoner of King Xiaocheng of Zhao. It was easy for him to kill Qin Yiren. However, he was afraid of angering Qin State, so he left Qin Yiren's life. Now, he thought about it, and he regretted it very much, but unfortunately, there is no regret in the world to buy.

Hexi Corridor, a small square plate.

Qin Yiren led the Qin army back and set foot on the small square plate. He left the Western Regions and entered the Hexi land.

As soon as he arrived here, Qin Yiren turned his eyes and his light burst into flames. He saw that the small square plate had changed drastically, and a newly built city stood here.

This city covers an area of ​​more than ten miles. Although it is a newly built city, it is very solid. The three words "Yumen Pass" are written on the city gate.

More importantly, the merchants come in and out here are very lively and have begun to show prosperity.

"They built the city." Meng Wu was very surprised.

Before leading the army to fight the west, Qin Yiren asked Wang Wan to build a city here for merchants. Unexpectedly, Wang Wan built the city in just half a year, which was really surprising.

"This city is very important. Before entering the Western Regions, it will be replenished here and rested here when returning to the Central Plains. When we conquered the Western Regions, the Western Regions will no longer harm merchants. The number of merchants in the Western Regions has increased. I believe that in a while, this place will be more lively and prosperous." Huangshi Gong saw it and was very happy.

This is very reasonable. Qin Yiren and others conquered the Western Regions and made the Western Regions surrender. The business environment has changed greatly, and the number of merchants in the Central Plains entering the Western Regions has increased dramatically. This Yumen Pass is an extremely important supply city. Although it is newly built, it is reasonable to have such a atmosphere.

The Qin army rested for a while at Yumen Pass and set off.

Along the way, Qin Yiren discovered that the Hexi Corridor had changed a lot. The Hexi Corridor was originally very desolate and few people were interested in it. Except for the alien races such as Lin Hu, Loulan, Loufan, Hunxie and Xiu Tu, only a few merchants arrived. Now, they would encounter merchants from time to time, and these merchants looked happy to return with a full load.

This was greatly improved by the conquering actions of the Qin army. At the same time, it was also closely related to the Qin State's construction of a city in Hexi. According to Fan Sui's suggestion, the Qin State built four cities of Jiuquan, Wuwei, Zhangye and Dunhuang in the Hexi Corridor, which can be used to control the land of Hexi and serve as a supply base for merchants. The golden trade route of the Hexi Corridor will not be able to gradually become prosperous.

"From this perspective, it will take a few more time to open up the 'Silk Road'. This is a good thing, a great thing. At that time, Zheng'er can go west along the Silk Road and conquer Europe." A glimmer flashed in Qin Yiren's eyes, and he was very excited.
