Chapter 207 I don't want to go north
"Hmph! These barbarians really overestimate their capabilities. They actually want to send a message to the Xiongnu Chanyu to send troops to attack our country, Great Qin!"
In the imperial study, Ying Zheng got the letter intercepted last night and became furious.
"Those guys are so shameless. They are obviously greedy, but they blame all the faults on me, Da Qin!"
Zhang Han was indignant when he learned the contents of the letter.
"Father, there is no need to be angry. Anyway, the Huns will be destroyed sooner or later. Now the arsenal has increased its manpower and they are working hard to make artillery and mines. In half a month, we can send troops to take down the Huns!"
Xiao Zhengtai sat closest to Ying Zheng, twirled her fingers and said casually.
According to his idea, not only the Xiongnu will be destroyed, but also the Donghu, Yueshi, and other countries in the Western Regions, including overseas, will be wiped out bit by bit. In the end, only Da Qin will be the only country left on the entire world map!
It's just that these words are too shocking to say now, so we can only take it step by step!
Moreover, if you want to go to sea, you must consider the safety factor. With the current shipbuilding technology, going to sea for long distances is basically a disaster!
"Most of the Xiongnu are grasslands, with endless plains and plains, and they are mostly cavalry. They are good at guerrilla warfare. It may not be easy to win them in one fell swoop!"
Although Ying Zheng was angry, the two countries had been at odds for many years, and he knew the situation of the Xiongnu very well, and knew that it was a hard nut to crack.
"Your Majesty, after the cannon is completed, I am willing to lead troops to the Xiongnu to eradicate these barbarians in one fell swoop!"
Wang Ben stood up and was the first to offer his hand.
"Your Majesty, I am also willing to lead troops there!"
General Kang Anping was not to be outdone and asked for orders.
"I am also willing to go!"
"There's also a minister...!"
All the generals stood up and asked for orders, wanting to lead their troops there.
They have all seen the power of artillery. As long as they have this powerful weapon, they can be said to be invincible and invincible. This is a great opportunity to make military achievements!
Furthermore, since those envoys entered Xianyang City, they began to humiliate the people. After entering the palace, they even made wild remarks and threatened His Majesty. They did not take Da Qin seriously at all. They all hated him with itch!
It's just for the sake of the overall plan that I have been holding back and not having an attack!
As long as His Majesty orders them to go to the battlefield, they will definitely vent their anger on the battlefield and kill the enemy without leaving any trace behind!
"You are all my ministers of Great Qin. Marquis Tongwu has rich battlefield experience. Logically speaking, I should send you to destroy the Xiongnu. But now that we have artillery, this thing is very powerful. As long as we make good use of it, we can save Great Qin."
Countless soldiers and generals...!"
Ever since Ying Zheng saw the power of artillery, he almost didn't sleep all night. He kept imagining in his mind the power of artillery on the battlefield, and the scene of the bombing of the Huns after they arrived.
The Qin Dynasty had just unified the six kingdoms and was developing at a rapid pace. It would be best to win with minimal casualties!
After hearing this, the generals who had just been invited remained silent.
It’s not that I don’t dare to go, it’s just that I don’t know anything about this new thing called artillery!
Of course, if His Majesty chooses anyone to be a general, they will also get familiar with the artillery in the shortest possible time!
"By the way, how is your artillery training going?"
Somehow, Ying Zheng suddenly changed the topic and asked with a slight smile on his face.
"Father, what do you mean? You don't want me to go, do you? I'm only six years old and still a baby!"
Looking at the smile on Ying Zheng's face, Xiao Zhengtai felt that he had malicious intentions, and a bad premonition arose spontaneously.
The flowers and plants in Xianyang City have just sprouted, and the beautiful scenery is waiting for him to enjoy.
He still has a lot of delicacies he wants to eat that he has yet to prepare.
There are also two beauties, Wan'er and Yu Ji. If he leaves, who will tease them... No, who will take care of them?
"If no one is more suitable than you, I really intend to send you there!"
The smile on Ying Zheng's face became even wider, with a hint of schadenfreude.
In fact, he just suddenly remembered this and asked about the progress. He had no other intention at all. It was because this kid was thinking divergently and thought he was going to be sent on an expedition!
However, after this reminder, he suddenly felt that it was not a bad idea to let him go.
He developed the artillery, and he also trained the artillery. He is definitely more proficient in the application and command of artillery than anyone else, and he can maximize the role of artillery!
Coupled with this kid's cleverness, it may be useful to deal with those elusive tricks of the Huns!
"You can pull him down. I am still young and cannot bear the heavy responsibility. It is better to let Tongwuhou go. Tongwuhou has rich experience in leading troops and will definitely be able to fight this battle well!"
"Otherwise, just assign General Meng. General Meng has guarded the border for many years and knows the Huns best. With the cooperation of artillery, he can fight this battle beautifully!"
"If that doesn't work, I will recommend Han Xin to be the leader of the Flying Eagles. This man has superb military strength and is able to command troops well. He is a rare talent!"
In order to make Ying Zheng give up this idea, Xiao Zhengtai ordered several people out at once.
There was no way, he really didn't want to go to the north.
In addition to the grassland being filled with cow dung, there are also super large mosquitoes at night. You have to be nervous when going to the toilet. If you are not careful, you will be...
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhengtai couldn't help but shudder!
How can it be comfortable to stay in the city?
Now he can come and go freely, and entering and leaving the palace depends on his mood.
In the other courtyard, there is Yu Ji rubbing her shoulders and legs, and in the newspaper office, there is Wang Wan, a heroic beauty, flirting with her. Even after returning to the palace, there are still a lot of maids and sisters to tease, it is simply a fairy-like life!
Who wants to go to the grassland and suffer that fate?
"Nonsense! Even if he can lead the Flying Eagles, he can't be the commander-in-chief and lead the troops on an expedition!"
Ying Zheng pretended to be angry and rolled his eyes at him.
"I'm not fooling around, everything I said is true!"
Xiao Zhengtai looked serious and raised her hands to assure her.
Han Xin was one of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty. He was regarded as a soldier immortal by later generations. He was the one mentioned by the unparalleled scholars in the country!
In history, he once defeated the Three Qin Dynasties, captured Wei, replaced and defeated Zhao, threatened Yan, attacked Qi in the east, and destroyed Chu in the south. He was an out-and-out hero!
If he hadn't seen that the old man wanted to send him to the war, he would have been reluctant to send Han Xin out!
"If I say no, I can't. Don't even think about using him to frustrate me! I will send you to the Huns!"
If this kid hadn't pushed it too far, maybe Ying Zheng would have thought more about it.
But this guy kept pushing things out, and even used Han Xin to fool him.
In the war between the two countries, if the personnel are improperly employed, the loss of hundreds of thousands of soldiers will be small. If the enemy succeeds and approaches Xianyang, the entire Qin Dynasty will be destroyed!
Even if this person is capable, he would not dare to directly let such an unknown person be the commander-in-chief!
Hum hum!
Chapter completed!
