Speaking of the last war!

Xiang Yang, Chang Wu and others were a little embarrassed.

The generals lowered their heads in shame.

"The person who came here sent an envoy to Chang'an to inquire about the details of Chang'an, and then motivated Ye Qing to attack us!"

Looking at the direction of Chang'an, it was still blocked by distance at the beginning.

…………

Chang'an!

"New Lord, the second batch of Chu Yue's army has arrived in Lantian County!"

Guo Jia sent the collected information in time.

Ye Qing asked: "How many soldiers?"

"It is estimated to be 400,000. The coach of the team is Qu Chen, who is good at defending and has a conservative personality. Now in Jiaxiu Lantian County, I guess he wants to stand firm in Guanzhong of our Great Zhou based on the classics, and use defense as the offense, waiting for us to attack." Guo Jia analyzed:

"It is almost impossible to lure him to attack the city. There is also a counselor named Sun Tao around him. His ancestors were Sun Kong, the famous war god of Chu Yue Kingdom. The Sun family is best at strategy and military strategy.

The Qu family army originally guarded the Huai River area, and was responsible for the defense of South Korea and the East China Sea Kingdom.

The Huai River line has a flat terrain, and there are no mountains that can be used as passes.

It relies entirely on the construction of defense lines between the river and the cities. For more than ten years, the East China Sea Kingdom has not been able to advance in a state of progress and has firmly protected the northern border of the Chu Yue Kingdom.

So once Qu Chen and Sun were trapped in Lantian County and gained a firm foothold, it would be difficult to get it down in the future!”

Ye Qing smiled and said, "So, if we don't attack, we can maintain a long-term tacit understanding and peace with him!"

"Uh! Xinjun, it can be said that, but it would be better to pull this nail as soon as possible. Yijia's opinion, there will be a third army behind Chu Yue Kingdom, which should not be less than 300,000!" Guo Jia reminded:

"Actually, Jia is even more afraid that he will also build a pass in Lantian Valley. It will take too long to be detrimental to us."

Ye Qing nodded, of course.

If the Chu and Yue army could not be defeated earlier and drove out of Wu Pass.

The governance of the Great Zhou Dynasty would not be stable.

The morale of the military and the people will be in chaos.

Ye Qing's prestige will also be greatly frustrated.

"Lord, the envoy of Chu Yue State, request an audience!"

Zhang Yi walked in from outside.

"Sent from Qu Chen!" Ye Qing asked.

Zhang Yi nodded and replied: "That's right, it was sent by Qu Chen, the commander of the second batch of Chu Yue State's army."

"Kill!" Ye Qing said directly: "Send a team of cavalry out of the city and kill directly."

Zhang Yi was stunned!

Killed?

So capable.

When the two armies fought, they never killed the envoys.

"Is it inappropriate for the lord to do this?"

Now Zhang Yi is an official of the Ministry of Rites and still pays attention to etiquette.

Ye Qing said: "There is nothing wrong. Qu Chen is not qualified. Let the Emperor of Chu Yue send normal envoys to apologize. Otherwise, the number of envoys of Chu Yue will be killed as many as the envoys of Chu Yue comes, and there is no need to worry about so many!"

"I think the new king is right. Now that the two countries are going to war, Chu and Yue are trying to seize our Great Zhou, there is no need to treat them as normal, unless the other party is coming to seek surrender." Guo Jia said:

"On the contrary, Qu Chen sent an envoy with bad intentions.

First, we are here to inquire about our situation, and second, we are here to influence our people's and military morale. At that time, the spies of Chu Yue State in the city will take the opportunity to fan the flames and help Chu Yue State to be unfavorable to our Great Zhou!"

"I'll inform you and call everyone tonight. Let's hold a meeting to deal with Qu Chen's army of more than 400,000."

"promise!"

Outside the city!

The messenger Qu Chen, who was waiting to enter the city to inquire about the news, waited for the moment when the city gate opened, but the person who came out was not from the Ministry of Rites.

It's a cavalry team.

The cavalry charged forward, and before they could react, the Shuriken fell.

A group of Chu Yue people fell into a pool of blood.

There was only one soldier who was not dead, and he was stunned.

"Go back and tell Qu Chen that he has no qualifications to talk to our country's new king and ask Emperor Chu Yue to come here to apologize!"

After saying that, the soldiers picked up the heads of the messengers on the ground and threw them to the city.

The people on the city put their heads into visible wooden boxes and hung them on both sides of the city gate.

The soldier who survived by chance immediately fled to Lantian County.

"Damn it, Ye Qing, I really think that I am the emperor!"

"You dare to break the rules!"

Qu Chen really didn't expect that the Great Zhou dared to kill the envoy.

He did not give any face to Chu Yue.

"Master-in-law, don't be angry. This is Ye Qing's method of provoking generals." Sun Tao reminded.

Qu Chen sat back angrily and said, "I know it's a way to provoke the generals, but it's a pity that Ye Qing is too cunning and doesn't dare to enter the city. Now I can't even find out the situation in the city."

"Forget it, no matter how many guests are, wait for the new instructions sent back by the country!"

…………

at night!

Ye Qing gathered all the strategists.

He asked: "Now Qu Chen has arrived with the second batch of Chu Yue Kingdom. With the original troops, there are nearly 470,000 troops in Lantian County. Qu Chen intends to take defense as an offensive and wants to build a stable bridgehead first. What strategies do you have to defeat the enemy?"

Everyone already knew about this.

Li Ru first stood up and said, "In my opinion, take advantage of the spring rain and water rise, and break the dike and flood Lantian County!"

Another household plan.

Li Ru, you should be alone!

Everyone couldn't help but complain.

This is not bad for other countries, but this is the Great Zhou Dynasty.

It is also our territory to flood.

Fortunately, Li Bing is not here, otherwise he will fight you again.

Guo Jia said: "You want to decide to enter Bashui and then cause Bashui to rise, thereby impacting Lantian County. The main method is feasible, but the operation is a bit difficult!"

"Those who know me are filial piety!" Li Ru did not refute, but smiled.

"We have a catapult and can attack head-on. Since Qu Chen wants to defend, it means he is still a little afraid of fighting with us. After all, our cavalry has an advantage, so I think we can fight with Lantian County in a dignified manner." Xu Shu suggested.

With siege equipment, there is no need for the defense of the Chu Yue army.

Li Rudao: "When a catapult attack is undoubtedly used to attack the city, it will also destroy Lantian County. The people of the Great Zhou inside cannot survive. It is not as clean and neat as the water attack, and it can defeat its more than 400,000 troops in one fell swoop, which will save trouble!"

Ye Qing had a decision in his heart and looked at Shang Yang, Zhang Yi and others.

Shang Yang said: "It turns out that the water flooded Jing Tianzhi is just a big agreement, because it is the reservoir that is difficult to repair, and the disaster is all about the land outside the city of Nancheng County, which has a large economic loss.

It is very affordable, but if it is Yanlantian County, I think it is completely acceptable.

One is that Lantian County has a small population, and the other is that the land there is relatively barren. At worst, it will be rebuilt in the future and exempt the people from taxes for ten or eight years!"
