Money is just a number for noble people. The dowry is just a different way of marrying, and letting voluntarily decide whether to change the sea boat. The innocent princesses who understand this truth chattered again, not knowing how many disasters this evil institution, which would later be called the "Eastern Mediterranean Company", brought to the ancient Indian people, the Seleucid people, the ancient Egyptian people, the ancient Greek people....

Xiong Jing had some understanding of this, but this was a war and he had no choice. War was a confrontation of spiritual power, and it was also a pile of military material. If overseas resources were not used to support this protracted war, the State of Chu would inevitably fail. However, even if the last Indian died, the State of Chu would never surrender! He believed that the State of Qin would eventually collapse, just like in history, and the country was destroyed just because of the nine hundred soldiers who raised their arms and shouted.

There is always a huge difference in behavior between those who can see history clearly and those who cannot see history clearly. When the lights of the Daliang Palace were on, Wei Zeng, the King of Wei in the little bedroom, did not feel good at all: In the afternoon, Lin Jiao, the commander of Daliang, actually insulted him in public. It is outrageous! He is the king and the lord of a country. If he is stupid, he will be misleading by his subjects. The king will always be wise.

"Come here!" Wei Zeng raised his eyebrows and his face turned heavy. "Take Lin Jiao down to me and imprison him in court."

"You must not!" The servant Wei Xi was shocked. Lin Jiao was the chief general of the 100,000 Wei army, and taking down the chief general Wei army would inevitably lead to chaos.

"The king is wise!" Wu Ying, the doctor who slandered, was very happy when he saw the king. "I heard that the king of Qin did not save Daliang because of Lin Jiao."

"What does it mean?" Wei Zeng was puzzled. He stopped Wei Xi who was about to speak, wanting to hear what Wu Ying said.

"Don't you know?" Wu Ying pretended to be surprised. "That day, the Chu army's boat troops landed on the shore. It would be fine if Lin Jiao did not rescue the Qin army, but he also killed a Qin army captain and set fire to the floating bridge. Yang Duanhe fled back to Daliang and had informed the King of Qin about this, and the King of Qin was angry!"

"Ah——!" Wei Zeng's surprise seemed to vomit from his throat, and his eyes burst. "Is this really a matter?! Is this really a matter?"

"King, the battlefield was in chaos that day. General Lin Jiao killed the Qin army's school because..." Wei Xi was still explaining, and Wei Zeng's wine lord threw it on his face. "Why don't you report to me?! Did you accept Lin Jiao's bribes and help him deceive me?"

"I dare not, I must not!" Wei Xi knew what the king was angry about, and the king hated others to deceive him the most. "I think this is just a trivial matter, so I did not report it to the king."

"A trivial matter? The King of Qin is angry!" Wu Ying added fire to the side. Seeing Wei Zeng staring at him, he quickly stopped the sound.

"Let Lin Jiao go to Luoyang to ask the Qin people for help!" Wei Zeng took a deep breath. Of course, he was not stupid, but he needed long sleeves to deal with Qin and Chu. His sleeves were not long, and he would naturally be scolded as stupid.

"King..." Wei Xi understood what the king meant, and asked Lin Jiao to go to Luoyang to send people to his head. "The King of Qin did not save Daliang. It took time to summon the army, and the King of Qin did not want the millet to be obtained by the Chu State."

"Ran Lianpo is sieging the city day and night!" Wei Zeng sighed. The sound of the catapult hitting the city wall could be heard throughout the beam. This monotonous sound made people restless and couldn't even sleep.

"King, Chu State wants only half of the city to the north, and it is necessary to destroy our Wei State!" Wei Xi advised again, "If the Chu people get this half of the city, they can help me stop the Qin army from attacking..."

"Daliang is the capital of our country of Wei, and it is the land of the country. How can we say that half of the city will be given? I don't allow it!" Wei Zeng roared. "It is said that I will go to Luoyang to ask the King of Qin to help!"

After Wei Zeng finished speaking, he threw a talisman at the messenger. At this time, he realized that Lin Jiao had no command of the army in the outer city, and it was not appropriate for the generals of the royal city to go. After thinking about it, he said, "The defenders of the outer city will be led by Yu Tu from today."

The king made such arrangements, Wei Xi, who wanted to persuade him, finally endured it and did not persuade him again. Wu Ying, who was slandering, knew that Lin Jiao would probably go but never return this time, and he stopped talking. That night, Lin Jiao, who received the king's order, took his entourage out of the city with his entourage.

Zhao Zheng, the King of Qin who fled from Daliang, was in Luoyang. He was not timid, but he had seen a lot of conspiracies and tricks when he grew up in the Zhigong Palace. When he learned that the State Wei Huan Qi had an affair with Xiang Yan, he seemed a little panicked. That day, he arrived in Luoyang and saw the strong and tall walls of Luoyang City, he finally calmed down. At this time, the news of Ao Cang being attacked came again. Ao Cang was the largest granary in Guandong. The Qin army went east along the river and ate Ao Cang's corn.

Ao Cang was occupied by a great deal. It was impossible for soldiers to fight on hunger. Once the Mengwu Army was exhausted from food and fodder, there was no other way except to withdraw its troops. It was easy to advance, but withdrawing troops was not that simple, especially the Chu army cut off the floating bridge that returned to the west.

In response to this, Li Xin, who arrived from Biyang, suggested that Zhao Zheng save Daliang first, Daliang save him, and Meng Wu's hundreds of thousands of troops also rescued him. It was not as difficult as he imagined to be blocked by blocking the waterway and then building a pontoon bridge.

Yang Duanhe, the defeated general, believed that Ao Cang should be recaptured first. Ao Cang's corn was not important, but it was very important to drive the Chu army back to the Honggou waters. The real blocking place was not only Daliang, but also Honggoukou must be blocked. The Chu army's boat troops were like a long spear, which could not only attack Ao Cang, but also attack Luoyang, and also cross Luoyang to directly attack Hangu Pass.

The two generals had different opinions and made sense. Wang Jian, who was recalled from Yecheng, did not say a word and did not make any statement. The right prime minister, Xiong Qi, advised Zhao Zheng to return to Xianyang early, and Luoyang was not safe. Twenty years ago, the Qin State destroyed the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, which was similar to the Qin army's occupation of Shangdang, and the Zhou people were not happy to be the Qin people, so the Zhou people died eastward.

Not all Zhou people died in the east. The poor and humble commoners could not withstand the cost of escape and could only continue to stay in Luoyang City. They were accustomed to the Zhou system and were naturally not used to the strict laws. The Qin State, which could only cultivate and fight throughout their lives, had resistance from time to time, and hatred accumulated.

In ancient times, the low average life expectancy was not the low average life expectancy of adults, but the high mortality rate under the age of fourteen. Twenty years is not enough to make a generation die. The Zhou people in Luoyang City still remembered the days more than 20 years ago. They had to wait for all of these people to die. The newly born Zhou people would think that their ancestors were Qin people for generations. Now, once they knew that the King of Qin was in Luoyang City, there might be an accident.

The ministers each had their own words. Zhao Zheng only asked how many soldiers were from each county every day, and ignored the rest. When he heard that the gathering of 150,000 troops had been held back, he finally summoned all the ministers after more than ten days of patience.

"I have decided to do it. The army will first take Ao Cang and then save Daliang. What do you think?" Luoyang's bedroom was old, and the beams and pillars had faded after some lacquered cases, and there were many rats here.

"The king is wise!" Yang Duanhe shouted, and the king finally adopted his suggestion.

"Report to the king, by the end of November, the river will be frozen, and the Jing people's warships are useless, so they will naturally withdraw their troops." Relying on being appreciated by the king, Li Xin still spoke out against it. "And Ao Cang cannot be pulled out for a few days. According to the detective cavalry, the Jing people have built bamboo frames south of the grain transport canal and built high walls..."

"It's impossible!" Yang Duanhe shook his head. "There is no loess south of the grain transport canal. The canal is a stone canal. How to build a high wall?"

"How can all the scout cavalry report like this?" Li Xin refuted. "In addition to the high walls, during the battle of Jiyi, the Jing people also had a rope net with an unbreakable spear and halberd. This net was high and our army could not break. The scout cavalry also reported that this rope net was erected south of the grain transport canal. Therefore, I think that if the attack on Ao Cang was insufficient, it would be insufficient."

"How many soldiers do you think you need?" Zhao Zheng was very impressed. He is now very modest.

"I think it is at least 200,000." Li Xin said. "Using the city guards of the Jing people, I think that if I die, I cannot take Ao Cang, and if I die, I cannot overthrow Xiang's army. The river is frozen, and the Jing people will retreat. Instead of dying in Ao Cang, it is better to break the siege of Daliang. This will not only save the army of Meng Wu, but also allow the King of Wei to not join forces with the Jing people."

The word He Zong moved Zhao Zheng. He pondered for a while and asked, "Do you think these 150,000 soldiers should save Daliang?"

"It's not true," Li Xin said. "The army that saved Daliang must not be less than 250,000, and it's better to be 300,000."

"The general is afraid of the Jing army like this!" Zhao Zheng was unhappy. He chose to attack Ao Cang because Ao Cang's Chu army was less than 100,000. If Daliang was saved, he would have to wait for more soldiers to assemble. He couldn't wait, so he wanted to order the Qin army to counterattack and return.

"King, the soldiers recruited this time are not as good as those of the previous elite soldiers!" Li Xin had to remind Zhao Zheng of this fact, "There are no sharp soldiers in the army, and there are fewer generals fighting fiercely. Now the strength of the Jing people has exceeded that of the Qin army..."

"How dare you praise the enemy?" Zhao Zheng could no longer suppress it. He could accept the defeat of the Qin army, but he could never accept that the Qin army was weaker than the Chu army.

According to Qin's laws, those who praised the enemy for fear of the public will be killed. Li Xin was panicked and bowed: "I dare not, but I just want to make the truth. The 150,000 army attacked Ao Cang, and I am afraid that I will not be able to win."

"You dare to say anything again!" Zhao Zheng became even more angry, but ultimately did not kill Li Xin.

"I have decided." Zhao Zheng said again: "Give Yang Qing as the general, and the army will attack the camp tomorrow to seize Ao Cang."

"King," when Yang Duanhe was about to shout 'respect and accept the order', Xiong Qi interrupted, "How should the King of Wei asks for help to restore him?"

"Let the King of Wei stay with you, wait for me to pull out Ao Cang, and then order the army to rescue him." After Zhao Zheng said that, he looked at Yang Duanhe, who had been ordered to be the general, and "I will restrict you from regaining Ao Cang within fifteen days!"

"I respectfully accept the order!" Yang Duanhe suddenly had cold sweat on his back, but to this point, he could only respectfully accept the order.

When Li Xin heard that Zhao Zheng ordered to take Ao Cang in the fifteenth day, he wanted to sigh but didn't dare, so he could only look down at the ground.
