Chapter 81: The Return of the Generals
"The king is wise!"
The important officials in the Chu court quickly flattered, and Qu Boyong was full of sorrow when he saw it, and only King Xiong Huai of Chu felt it helpful.
People like Qu Boyong, the three major families of Chu were sad in their hearts. Chu was no longer the Chu State during the reign of King Wei of Chu.
The State of Chu has become increasingly weak, and can only be supported by the three major families of Qu, Zhao and Jing families in Chu.
The other so-called important officials in the court could not count on them at all. They formed cliques for personal gain and placed family interests above the interests of the Chu State.
But the king still couldn't see these. When will the State of Chu become truly powerful and no longer be strong on the outside and the middle? Do you really need to carry out comprehensive bone scraping and cure poison like Qin?
However, at this time Qu Boyong's heart was filled with worries, not only about the fate of Chu, but also about his son.
Since Qu Boyong has never seen his second son Qu Yuan again.
I sent someone to inquire and found out that my son had actually gone missing some time ago, after taking his sweetheart to the border between Qin and Chu.
Qu Boyong knew in his heart that his son Qu Yuan had been kidnapped by the soldiers wandering nearby Qin soldiers.
As for the fact that his son Qu Yuan was killed, Qu Boyong did not believe that he did not believe that Qu Boyong knew Qu Yuan's intelligence.
Once he encounters life-threatening and cannot resist, Qu Yuan will definitely tell his family background.
At that time, both the Qin generals and the Qin soldiers would not hurt Qu Yuan because of their existence as a general of Chu, so as to gain bargaining chips for future negotiations between Qin and Chu.
"Gen. Qu, according to the advice of the veteran general, who should be sent to lead the troops this time?"
"Wuguan Guard Wang Ling is a difficult opponent. He holds 70,000 elite Qin army soldiers and the Wuguan Tianqian If the generals are incompetent, the 300,000 army will really not be able to do anything to Wang Ling!"
King Xiong Huai of Chu said that as the lord of a country, he was naturally very concerned about Wuguan, which was originally a territory of Chu, and he also had a lot of knowledge. He naturally knew that Wang Ling was difficult to deal with.
"Back to the king, this time, the old minister is willing to lead his troops to the expedition in person!"
Qu Boyong said that this statement caused a stir directly in the Chu court.
"The old general is not allowed. The old general is the pillar of the country. How can he move lightly?"
"As a veteran of the three dynasties, the veteran general has worked hard for our Chu State. Now that he is in high spirits this year, how can I bear to let the veteran general wear armor to fight again?"
Xiong Huai hurriedly said that although Xiong Huai was a little stupid and stupid, he still knew who the person he really was in the court.
He is definitely the leader of Qu family, the royal branch of Chu Kingdom, and he is all his own family, so King Xiong Huai of Chu trusts the Qu family more.
"Reporting to the king, Wang Ling, the guardian general of Wuguan, seems to have not had many brilliant achievements in the Qin army, but he is a powerful general who has been promoted step by step by step by step by step by step."
"And there are 70,000 elite Qin soldiers in their hands. The old minister sent someone to spy on Wang Ling's intelligence before and found that this person was fighting steadily. If he had no confidence in winning, he would never lead the army to take the initiative!"
"The battle once seemed extremely stiff, but once you catch the fighter plane, you will launch a thunder strike and directly defeat the opponent. With this person in Wuguan, I, the Chu State, will probably be extremely difficult to take down Wuguan!"
"Therefore, only the old minister took charge personally. As long as news comes from Qin State that the King of Qin is willing to cede land, the old minister will personally lead a 300,000 elite army to attack Wuguan to open a channel for our Chu State to go north!"
Qu Boyong said that in fact, if possible, Qu Boyong was unwilling to lead the army to fight in person, after all, his body was no longer allowed.
But I have to do this. In fact, Qu Boyong has another better candidate in his heart - Jingjia Jingcui!
Thinking of this person, even Qu Boyong couldn't help but sigh. The young hero of the Jing family probably had surpassed him.
If Jing Cui led his army to this time, and the Chu State would not delay its support and ensure sufficient and timely supply of food and grass and military weapons, the Chu State would at least 80% be sure to take down Wu Pass.
However, the name Jing Cui is a taboo in the Chu court, and even Qu Boyong, an important official in the Chu State, cannot be mentioned easily.
Jing Cui’s original merits could indeed shine on the world, but he had no choice but to violate the most taboo thing that the king was that he was against the will!
Thinking about the fact that King Chu ordered Jing Cui to lead the Chu army back to Chu State many times, Jing Cui still did his own thing. Although he almost destroyed Qin State in the end, he also had the right to be unacceptable to the orders of the outside king.
But it also violated a taboo in the king's heart no matter where he is.
When Jing Cui returned to Chu, she was almost beheaded. If it weren't for the three major families of Chu, led by him, who were desperately pleaded with mercy, Jing Cui, a famous young talent in the world, would have probably died.
But even so, after Jing Cui was deprived of military position, she returned to Jing's house and drank and had fun all day long, stayed at home, and no longer asked about anything about Chu.
It seems that he has been depressed and degenerate, but as long as a person with knowledge can see the astonishing edge hidden under Jing Cui's appearance now.
"Oh, okay, but the old general should not force himself this time. He doesn't need to wear armor and go into battle like before. He just needs to be in charge of the central army."
"I'll send the order to Qin envoy, and the Qin King's ceremony will be held as scheduled!"
Xiong Huai sighed and said, if the situation was not necessary, Xiong Huai really didn't want Qu Boyong, the pillar of Chu, to lead his troops to the expedition.
After passing through the Chu Palace, the orders of the King of Chu were quickly passed to the inn. After receiving the King of Chu's reply, the envoy of Qin set out from Yingdu on his way back to Qin.
Not long after the Qin envoys left Ying, another group of people came out of Yingdu’s city gate, but they were heading in different directions.
This group of people were Qu Boyong and others. This time, he received the tiger talisman issued by the King of Chu and went to the Chu army camp to mobilize the army, hoping to suppress the Wu Pass, and wait for the opportunity to seize the Wu Pass in one fell swoop!
...
Half a month later, the capital of Qin State - Xianyang City!
At this time, a wave of sand and dust suddenly rolled up from the left and right directions under Xianyang City, and two groups of people with hundreds of Qin cavalry suddenly came from the left and right directions.
These two groups of people were the headquarter carried by Ying Ji, General Ying Ji, who returned from the northern border after Ying Ji's orders, Ying Hua, the first warrior of Qin, and Sima Cuo, who returned from the land of Bashu.
Two groups of people gathered directly under the city of Xianyang. Whether it was Sima Cuo, Ying Ji, or Ying Hua, they could not help but show a vicissitudes of temperament, but the majesty of the generals in the three of them did not decrease at all.
The northern border where Ying Ji and Ying Hua stationed not only defended the security of the Qin Dynasty, but also defended the security of the Chinese nation.
Sima Cuo also wanted to resist the grassland aliens in the northwest direction. During the years of fighting with aliens, he could feel a strong and fierce aura from a distance from the three of them, which made people intimidated!
"Haha, General Sima, I haven't seen each other for many years after I parted in Xianyang. General Sima is fine!"
