Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

Chapter 1034: The First Emperor in the World Must Endure Humiliation

After arranging everything, Chu Ning went to rest.

Soon, a pigeon message was sent towards the capital of Chu State.

After this great victory, of course we have to go back and report the victory, and also report our next moves.

The next afternoon, Chu Ning led a team of white horse cavalry and quickly headed towards the State of Wei.

This time, he did not do it secretly like before, but openly.

He just wanted Ying Zheng to know where he was going!

Sure enough, Ying Zheng received the news in the evening.

Hecheng.

"What? Chu Ning led his men out of the city and headed towards the State of Wei?"

Ying Zheng's face turned gloomy when he received the news.

Now Chu Ning is not hiding at all, and is actually taking his people away openly, as if he is afraid that the Qin army won't know.

"Come here, invite all the generals to come to discuss the matter!"

Ying Zhen clenched his hands tightly. He was unwilling to let Chu Ning leave like this, nor was he willing to fail like this.

If he returned with the news of defeat, how would the people of Qin and the people of the world view him?

Three quarters of an hour later, all the generals gathered!

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" Everyone bowed and saluted.

Ying Zheng said in a cold voice: "I have received news that Chu Ning has left with 500 cavalrymen. What do you think?"

As soon as this was said, the scene was completely silent.

Everyone knew what the emperor meant by asking this question.

Doesn't this mean you still want to attack?

But now the morale of the Qin army is low, and they do not have an advantage in terms of numbers of troops. How can they capture Yucheng?

No one dared to answer, and they could only look at Wang Jian who was at the front.

Now the only one who can persuade the emperor is General Wang Jian!

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Wang Jian sighed and could only take the initiative to stand up and frowned:

"Your Majesty, I know Chu Ning very well. He has his own calculations for everything he does."

"He left with such fanfare this time, maybe he wants to plot against our army again."

As soon as these words were spoken, Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows and a hint of hesitation flashed across his face.

Although he knew that Chu Ning was unlikely to have any plans under the current circumstances, he had been plotted against so many times that he had to be cautious.

If it were someone else, he would definitely not hesitate.

But this is Chu Ning, the Chu Ning who made him suffer several losses in a row.

Who can guarantee that Chu Ning has no plan?

While thinking, Wang Jian continued, "Your Majesty, our army lost most of the siege equipment in this battle. If we want to attack the city again, we must first replenish the siege equipment."

"Otherwise, if we rashly attack the city, we will suffer heavy losses, which will not be worth the loss."

"Besides, our army's morale is currently low, and our infantry reinforcements have not yet arrived. It is too hasty to attack the city now."

"Your Majesty, please think again!"

Seeing this, all the generals stood up, saluted, and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty, please think twice!"

Ying Zheng was left speechless by what everyone said, a look of helplessness appeared on his face.

Although he wanted to give it a try, the generals under him had lost their enthusiasm.

After three defeats in three battles, not only did the soldiers lose their morale, but the generals also lost their morale.

In addition, almost all the siege equipment was lost. If we attack the city again at this moment, we will only pay with our lives.

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng sighed and said, "Forget it. Since the generals think it is not appropriate to fight any further, then let's stop now!"

"Send an order, Wang Jian command all the troops here to build siege equipment in case of emergency."

"If the Chu army has not attacked, do not attack rashly before receiving my order!"

"Prime Minister Zhang, please follow me back to the capital!"

"We obey your order!" Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

What they were most worried about was that Ying Zheng would launch an attack regardless of the consequences, which would only cause heavy losses to the Qin army.

Fortunately, Ying Zheng finally held back.

At this time, Ying Zheng stood up, looked towards the direction of Wei State, and sneered: "Although I can no longer deal with Chu Ning, I believe that Wei State will definitely deal with him!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

In this battle, the Qin Dynasty was completely defeated and he had to admit defeat.

However, he did not want to let Chu Ning go, but instead planned to go back and force the Wei Emperor Cao De to take action against Chu Ning.

If this plan succeeds, the Wei army will definitely be able to kill Chu Ning.

By then, the State of Chu would surely avenge Chu Ning and go to war with the State of Wei.

With Wei's current strength, it will certainly be difficult to deal with Chu and the Han Dynasty. By then, Qin can take the opportunity to seize Wei's cities.

Why not do a good thing that kills three birds with one stone?

There was no need for him to continue to dwell on this.

If you lose, you have to admit it!

But as long as he is still around, he will never bow his head, and he will try every means to kill Chu Ning.

That night, Ying Zheng's carriage set out back to Yangcheng.

Two days later, Chu Ning's pigeon letter arrived at the capital of Chu State.

The King of Chu was overjoyed when he received the news, and immediately summoned the Grand Tutor and the Prime Minister to discuss the matter.

The Chu State Imperial Palace, the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The Grand Tutor and Prime Minister Yang Wende came in at the same time: "Your Majesty!"

The King of Chu took Chu Ning's victory report and said excitedly, "My dear ministers, a great victory, a great victory on the front line!"

As he spoke, Zhao Ming handed the victory report to the Grand Tutor.

After reading it, the Grand Tutor was very excited. He handed it to Yang Wende and said excitedly: "Great, great, this battle killed 30,000 Qin troops, and almost killed Ying Zheng!"

After reading it, Yang Wende was so excited that he trembled all over: "Your Highness the Crown Prince has won three battles and three victories, and has killed more than 70,000 Qin soldiers. It is really a blessing for our dynasty!"

"In this case, the morale of the Qin army must be low at the moment, and they dare not attack Yucheng in the short term. Our dynasty can take this opportunity to send people to govern Yan land properly."

As the prime minister, Yang Wende looks at things in the long term.

Although the Qin army is now defeated and dares not launch an attack in the short term, it does not mean that the Qin army will not attack forever.

If the Qin army was given a chance to recuperate, once preparations for the siege were complete, they would certainly attack Yucheng.

What's more, the person guarding Hecheng this time is Wang Jian, the general of Qin State, and his ability is no less than Bai Qi.

The State of Chu still needs to prepare countermeasures in advance!

The King of Chu nodded slightly upon hearing this and said with a smile: "The Prime Minister is right. The Crown Prince also thinks that our dynasty should send people to manage Yan to ensure that there are no problems on the front line!"

"Now that our dynasty is short of officials, I'm afraid we'll have to trouble the Prime Minister to go there in person."

Yang Wende was slightly stunned when he heard this, but then he reacted and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness the Crown Prince still has a long-term vision!"

After a pause, he straightened his face and said in a deep voice: "For the sake of Chu's eternal hegemony, I will definitely help Your Majesty to stabilize Yan even if I have to sacrifice my old bones!"

The conquered territory naturally needs to be stabilized, and the only reliable and powerful person in the court is him, the prime minister.

The King of Chu laughed and said, "I knew that the Prime Minister would not refuse. Don't worry, in a year at most, when Yan is stable and our imperial examinations are completed, I will send officials to take care of Yan!"

After saying this, he looked outside the palace with some worry, and sighed, "I just don't know what the result will be when the prince goes to Wei this time."

Although there are 50,000 cavalry over there, that is the territory of Wei State. If a real fight breaks out, it is still unknown who will win and who will lose.

Besides, Chu Ning’s purpose is to save people.

I'm afraid this trip will be full of crises!
