On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Chapter 503 Entering the Qin State

Above the river, Lin Zhenxian was wearing armor and helmet, and his energetic face under the helmet was full of fortitude and excitement.

The eagle longs for the blue sky, and the soldier longs for the battlefield.

For this old man who has fought all his life, nothing makes him happier than going to the battlefield.

Lin Zhenxian stood on the bow of the huge wooden boat, letting the cool spring breeze blow on his face.

He touched the side of the ship and said to the fat man behind him, "Little Fatty, look at this big ship. It's great. When will Daqian have such a high-level warship? Hehehe, Zhen'er always surprises me."

Fatty Wang couldn't stay idle at home, so he followed Lin Zhenxian on the raid.

But he was seasick and looked very bad these past two days. When he heard Lin Zhenxian's words, he waved his hands and said, "Grandpa Lin, I really can't stand this broken boat. It rocks back and forth. I've lost so much weight in just a few days."

"You wouldn't be able to see the weight you've lost even if you lost three times that much. Just hold on for another day and we'll reach Taiyuan tomorrow night. Then we can head north and capture Dingxiang."

The fat man also had his own unique views on warfare: "Grandpa Lin, how about I lead a cavalry team to launch a surprise attack on Wuyuan? That way, we can attack from three directions. I don't believe that Northern Yan will not be destroyed!"

"Nonsense!" Lin Zhenxian shouted angrily, "Do you think the Northern Yan cavalry are all good-for-nothings? If we were to launch a surprise attack on their capital, our cavalry wouldn't even be enough to fill their teeth."

"They are just good-for-nothings..." the fat man muttered.

Lin Zhenxian said, "Northern Yan has always relied on cavalry to win. This is their strength. You were lucky to defeat the Northern Yan heavy cavalry last time. Otherwise, you would still be alive? Stop talking nonsense. You will not be allowed to act alone this time. If you dare to act recklessly, you will be punished by military law!"

"Yes."

Although the fat man always had some problems in his head, he still didn't dare to challenge Lin Zhenxian.

Because in the military camp, Lin Zhenxian is the absolute authority. If the fat man really did something unforgivable, he would definitely be beheaded. Unlike Lin Zhen, he would not consider the relationship.

Twenty large ships slowly passed by, attracting the Korean people to stop and watch. They didn't know what they were doing or what was happening. They were just curious why there were such large ships in the world, which were even taller than their city walls.

Because Shangguan Moxuan's granddaughter married Lin Zhenxian's grandson, the relationship between Qin and Qian was very delicate. When the large ship arrived at the Qin border, it was stopped by the Qin garrison as expected.

They were also scared because they had never seen such a big ship.

On the watchtower, the Qin soldier on guard looked shocked and ordered the soldiers behind him, "Pull up the chains immediately and prevent them from entering. I'll go find the commander!"

"Yes!"

This matter is too big, and a sergeant alone cannot make the decision. After all, no one knows where these large ships are going and whether they will pose a threat to the Qin State.

On the bank of the Fen River in Taiyuan County, a military camp stood, and the sergeant ran hurriedly into the large tent in the middle.

Several generals, the Marshal, and a white-haired old man were chatting happily inside when the sergeant reported, "General! Twenty large ships from Hanoi are attempting to pass through our border. They have been intercepted by me and await your decision."

Shangguan Moxuan stroked his beard and laughed, "Haha, what was I saying? This relative is quite impatient. It's only been a few days, and he's already here."

"In your opinion, sir, should we let them go?" Qin Wenchang, the great general of the Qin State, asked while sitting in the main seat.

"Let them go. Their target is Northern Yan. Last year, Northern Yan took advantage of the Qian Kingdom's southward march to fight Southern Chu to launch a surprise attack on their rear. This time, they are probably seeking revenge."

"Sir, I have one thing I don't understand," Qin Wenchang said. "I can see that Lin Zhenxian intends to attack Northern Yan from both sides this time, but how can he be so sure of success? Even we have to give way to Northern Yan's heavy cavalry. How can we resist the Qian Kingdom's troops coming by boat? Isn't this just courting death?"

"Hahahaha, Wenchang, I don't understand cavalry, but I do understand Lin Zhenxian. He's a madman born for war. If he wasn't sure of victory, he wouldn't have sent his troops on such a long expedition through our Qin territory. Just wait and see, Northern Yan is doomed to fail this time."

Qin Wenchang was obviously a little unconvinced.

He was a veteran who had fought hundreds of battles, but even so, he wasn't sure of victory against the Northern Yan heavy cavalry. Even if Lin Zhenxian were a god descended from heaven, he wouldn't be able to gain any advantage against the heavy cavalry.

The war in the south is tense, and Yanmen Pass will be even more difficult to break through. At that time, the Qian Kingdom will have only one end.

That would mean a complete failure, and perhaps even a decisive attack from Northern Yan.

Why would Lin Zhenxian, who always planned before taking action, choose to attack Beiyan first?

Shangguan Moxuan said, "Wenchang, don't think about it. We can't guess what Lin Zhenxian is thinking."

Qin Wenchang pondered for a moment and said, "Sir, I'm worried that if Lin Zhenxian really takes over Northern Yan, then his next target... won't it be our Qin?"

If it were in the past, Qin Wenchang would definitely not worry about the invasion of Qian State.

Not to mention whether they have the strength or not, even if they do, there are Northern Yan and Han in between. Unless they annex them first, they can threaten Qin.

But now, the State of Qian first defeated Southern Chu and forced it to cede all the territory north of the Yangtze River, and now it is attacking Northern Yan. Once the territory of Northern Yan becomes the territory of the State of Qian, then the State of Qin and the State of Qian will become neighboring countries.

At that time...it would be hard to say whether to attack Han or Qin first.

Shangguan Moxuan's expression also turned grim. He thought for a moment and said, "Wenchang, in your opinion, if the Qian Kingdom were to invade Great Qin, what are our chances of success?"

"Sir, if Lin Zhenxian were in command, the chances of winning would probably be less than 30%."

"In that case, what do we have to worry about?"

"What do you mean, sir?"

"If you can't defeat them, just surrender. Do you still want to harm the people of our Great Qin? Although the current Qian Kingdom has a woman as its emperor, her military and political skills are no less than those of Murong Qian. She is extremely kind to the people and has strict laws. If Qin can be annexed by the Qian Kingdom, I think it would be a good thing. When I was in the Qian Kingdom, I often heard people say that the world has been divided for too long, and the people have suffered terribly from the war. If we can unify it, I will lead the charge."

Qin Wenchang nodded. He felt that although these words sounded unpretentious and even somewhat vulgar, they carried a simple and passionate sense of family and country, which was thought-provoking.

"Sir, who said that?"

"Lin Zhen, grandson of Lin Zhenxian."

"The one who married your granddaughter?"

"Yes, this boy is definitely not an ordinary person. He is the emperor's husband in name only, but in reality he is the real controller of the Qian Kingdom. Thanks to his reforms, the Qian Kingdom has rapidly recovered. Not to mention the twenty giant ships in Hanoi, they were designed and built by him. In addition, the Qian Kingdom now collects tribute from Southern Chu every year, and the people live very well. And don't forget, this boy had a record of defeating 100,000 with only 5,000 troops last year."
