Chapter One Hundred and Fortieth Qin's King and Minister in a Bad Mood

Just when Zhao Dan was hoping that Xinling Jun would bring him a key victory, in the distant Xianyang Palace, Zhao Dan's opponent, King Ji of Qin, was also presiding on a high-level meeting of Qin.

To be honest, Qin Wang Ji's mood was not good at all at this time.

After all, there is really not much good news that has been heard by this Qin king over the past few days.

King Ji of Qin frowned. Although his face was old, his eyes were very sharp. He looked at several core ministers of Qin in front of him and said, "How can we solve the situation in Changping today?"

If it is based on the previous personality of King Ji of Qin, then King Ji of Qin should ask Fan Sui directly.

But today, King Ji of Qin did not do this because King Ji of Qin didn't want to ask.

At least I don't want to ask today.

The reason is very simple. Although Fan Sui's plan was there, it failed.

What King Ji of Qin disliked the most was failure.

Although it is indeed something that no one can think of Xinling Jun Wei Wuji's sudden killing of Jin Bi to seize power, failure is failure. Even if it is an incredible failure, it is failure in the final analysis.

This failure caused Qin Wang Ji's confidence in Fan Sui to begin to shake.

The older a person is, the less patience he has.

King Ji of Qin knew very well that his body was aging slowly and he didn't know when he would say goodbye to this world.

So King Ji of Qin was very anxious.

He was anxious to seize more land for Qin before his death, and he was anxious to defeat Zhao, the last powerful enemy, before his death.

He was even anxious to unify this land of China before his death!

Therefore, King Ji of Qin could not tolerate any failure, not even once!

Fan Sui's failure to win over Wei State undoubtedly touched the rebellious scales of King Ji of Qin, which made King Ji of Qin feel some dissatisfaction with Fan Sui.

After all, in the eyes of King Ji of Qin, you, Fan Sui, said "one county has changed one country". As a result, I believed it and gave you power to Fan Sui, so that you could do it without any scruples.

What's the result? As a result, you, Fan Sui, did not only fail to succeed, but also allowed Zhao Dan'er to get 100,000 reinforcements!

What a mess?

So King Ji of Qin felt very uncomfortable. This time, he deliberately did not ask Fan Sui first like before, but directly asked the ministers, which was a small warning to Fan Sui.

Of course, this is just a small warning. According to Qin Wang Ji's current temper, if he really loses trust in a person, the death period of this person will basically come.

Except for King Ji himself, there is no one in this world who must be loved by King Ji of Qin.

The only true love in the heart of this world's first king is his Qin State, his country and hegemony.

Now, King Ji of Qin is threatened, and he needs to defend his own hegemony and defeat Zhao Dan, a damn stumbling block.

He needs the help of his ministers.

King Ji of Qin slowly swept across the many ministers, hoping that someone could stand up and solve this problem for him.

However, what disappointed King Ji of Qin was that all the ministers of Qin who were swept by King Ji of Qin bowed their heads and did not dare to look at King Ji of Qin at all.

This is not because the ministers dare not take responsibility. In fact, the news that has been heard one after another in the past few days is not good news for Qin.

First of all, in Shangdang, although Bai Qi's attack achieved certain results and allowed the Qin army to see the dawn of victory, the situation was soon dragged down with Lian Po's tenacious response.

Although Bai Qi swore in his reply to Xianyang letter that he "winned immediately soon", when the Qin monarchs and ministers learned that Zhao Dan "sent all the whole country to Shangdang to fight against the Qin army", they understood that this war was probably hard to say.

Even if no one suspects that Wu'anjun will definitely bring back a victory for the Qin Dynasty, the problem is that until now, the casualties returned from the front line have reached a shocking level, and opposition voices have quietly appeared in the Qin political arena.

If the fight continues like this, the blood of the old Qin people will be dry!

Of course, such opposition voices are just spreading in secret at this moment, and no one dares to raise it openly.

Secondly, it is unfavorable news from the two southeastern counties of Qin State.

After the fall of Wancheng, the Chu State Grand Marshal Jingyang led 200,000 Chu troops to move south quickly. After more than a month of fierce siege, Deng City also fell into the hands of the Chu people.

The fall of Wancheng and Dengcheng means that two-thirds of Nanyang County has fallen into the hands of the Chu people, and it also means that the connection between the Nanjun of Qin State and the Guanzhong area in the south has been directly cut off!

Not only that, after capturing Dengcheng, the Chu army, whose morale was growing, continued to move southward and head straight to Yingdu. It was obviously decided to take back the old capital from the Qin people.

In addition, the Qin State suffered a severe blow in Wei State.

Qin Weiyan, who originally thought he was sure to win, jointly attacked Zhao Chu, but was shattered because of Xinling Jun who came out halfway.

Now Xinling Jun Xingye leads his army westward to Yewangcheng. Although Sima Geng, the garrison of Yewangcheng, has an army of 50,000, and aided 50,000 elite troops in his hands, can Sima Geng resist the famous Xinling Jun? No one can say well.

Of course, it doesn't mean there is no good news at all.

In the north, the Qin ally, Yan, was invincible and conquered the middle people of Zhao, Wu Sui, Wei and other cities.

Now the main force of Yan State has crossed the Tang River and is besieging Gucheng, an important town in the northern part of Zhao State. The letter written by the envoy of Yan State is also full of confidence in the letter written by the King of Yan, and the situation looks very good.

The problem is that Gucheng is still hundreds of miles away from the capital of Zhao State Handan. Even if Gucheng is captured, it will not be able to relieve near-thirst.

If the timeline is turned back for three months, then every minister here will be full of confidence in the victory of the Great Qin Empire in the Battle of Changping.

But at this time, the whole situation has become completely confusing. Almost all the seven heroes of the Warring States Period have been involved in this war. It is hard to say who wins and who loses.

It is because I can't say it well that I dare not say it.

At this time, if you don’t speak, you will be scolded at most, and everyone will be scolded together.

But if you say the wrong thing, it will be a head loss!

So after looking at Qin Wang Ji, he found that almost all the ministers of Qin were looking at their eyes and no one wanted to speak.

This made the anger in King Ji of Qin begin to rise a little.

King Ji of Qin waited for a while, but still no one spoke.

So King Ji of Qin finally couldn't bear it anymore and slapped the table with a "bang".
