Chapter 307 The front line and the court

In the tent, Su Yi was behind the commander's case, holding a volume of military books in his hand and watching them seriously.

Soon, the Qin generals entered one after another.

People were obviously emotional, and after they came in, they immediately lined up with each other, looking like they were waiting for arrangements.

Seeing this, Su Yi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, put down the bamboo slips and said, "What do you mean?"

"It's time for Mr. Su to issue an order." Peng Shuang said first.

Goldman Sachs said: "All the generals of our army have arrived and will be subject to the order of General Su."

Hearing this, Su Yi laughed and said, "When did I say I wanted to attack?"

"But Mr. Su!" A general was anxious: "Our army has been staying outside Puyang for eight months! Eight months, if you don't advance or retreat, you won't win in a battle. If you continue like this, our Qin State will be dragged down!"

His voice was very sad. Su Yi could understand his psychology, so he was not angry. Instead, he said: "How could I not know what General Yu said? But the time has not come, and the Qin army cannot move for the time being."

That's the case again.

Peng Shuang couldn't stand it anymore and said in a muffled voice: "I would like to ask whether Su Shuai had ever thought about fighting this war."

"Why did the general say this? Wang Ling is here. How dare I disobey the emperor's order?" Su Yi said directly.

"Since the emperor has a order, I will order you to command the three armies and attack Jin State, why did you delay the war?" Peng Shuang asked, "If you talk about military rank, he is no lower than Su Yi."

"What is delaying the war?" Su Yi asked back.

"You are now." Peng Shuangdao.

"No." Su Yi immediately refuted: "There are many ambushings on the defense line of the Jin army today, and a strong attack is actually the only way for the subordinates, and what I plan is not here."

"That can't be like this all the time. If I ask me, since the barriers of the Jin army are unbreakable, then attack Puyang City! With the courage of our Qin army soldiers, if we launch a sharp offensive, we will definitely be able to break the city!" Peng Shuang said again.

"What if the Jin army's defense line shrinks and we will surround our army?" Su Yi asked again.

Peng Shuang said without even thinking about it, "Then our soldiers are not afraid!"

Su Yi shook his head: "There is a lot of military tactics. The superiors attack the plan, and the subordinates attack the city."

How could Peng Shuang be able to argue with Su Yi? After hearing this, he made a moment of speech and then snorted angrily: "It's the same again!"

"Haha." Su Yi was not angry, and looked like he was smiling.

At this moment, a sudden thunder broke out outside, and then the sound of rain clicking on the camp tent sounded. Su Yi immediately looked up and walked out quickly.

I wondered why he suddenly became nervous. The generals looked at each other, and then out of curiosity, they all followed him and ran outside.

Outside the tent, the raindrops were not heavy, and it was drizzling. After Su Yi came out, he ignored the rain and looked at the ground calmly.

All the generals were behind him, and they were all confused.

Soon, due to the gathering of rain, some very small water flows appeared on the ground, which were slowly flowing down along the terrain.

"Water flows to the lower place." He suddenly murmured.

Isn't this nonsense? When all the generals heard it, they couldn't help but look at each other suspiciously again. Goldman Sachs said: "Ship Su, you are..."

Su Yi slightly raised his hand to stop him, then stretched out his palm, and the rain dripped into his palm, and said softly:

"This rain is too little..."

People looked at each other again, like monks, confused.

"Summer, summer... no, the time has not come yet..." Su Yi murmured, and after retracting his palm, he also turned around and looked around the generals for a week: "You all go back first, each performs their duties."

"This..." People showed reluctant expressions on their faces. Everyone came here, they originally wanted to suggest Su Yi to send troops, but now...

Seeing this, Su Yi said without hesitation: "This is my military order!"

"No...No!" The generals had no choice but to hold their fists and take the order. In the end, they all left here unwillingly.

Su Yi seemed to be waiting for the time, and this wait took eight months. As a commander, he had enough patience and perseverance to find a decisive battle.

But if he can do this, it doesn't mean that everyone else can do this.

Not to mention that the Qin generals on the front line became more and more anxious day by day, even in the rear, the capital of Qin State had already had some shocks.

There is no doubt that garrison 180,000 troops, spending countless money and food, without a single report on the battle for eight months, without making progress or retreating, how could such a thing not be impeached by people?

At the beginning, only a few ministers discussed the matter in front of the court, but as time went by, more and more ministers stood up. Now, they have almost become ministers in the court, and they all reported that Su Yi was not.

This is not their fault, because the Qin State is so in this situation, and Su Yi cannot fight like this.

The ministers' concerns, from the starting point, can be said to be good, but they have different opinions.

On this day, the Qin State held a meeting with the main hall.

The ministers started to discuss the war in Puyang again.

Yan Ming, the Minister of Rites, was the first to stand up. He first bowed to Xiao Yuan, gave a deep bow, and then said:

"King, I heard about the war in Puyang. General Su Yi stationed 180,000 troops. He did not fight in August, and did not advance or retreat. It was not the general who was doing this to waste money and food."

"That's right." Another minister stood up and said, "King, no matter what, General Su Yi should understand the current situation of our country. He still acted like this when his national strength was not as good as Jin. Isn't this exactly what King Jin wants?"

"The king handed over all our 180,000 Qin soldiers to Su Yi. His military power was in control and he looked at the Jin army. It was originally an enemy and we, but we were still safe in August. After judging their intentions, the king should observe."

"What does this mean?" Hearing this, Xiao Yuan finally looked at the minister with a calm face.

Seeing that his tone was not good, the minister couldn't help swallowing and said carefully: "I... I have no other intentions, but the situation of the battle here is really strange, so I dare not agree."

Xiao Yuan lost his voice again, but just narrowed his eyes slightly.

Then, the Minister of Revenue Zheng Shiwei stood up and said:

"Although our country has carried out a series of reforms under the rule of the king, the land and mu have not yet seen any real profits, and it still takes time to develop. Therefore, the stockpiling of food and grass is insufficient, and the national treasury is relatively empty, which is difficult to support military expenditure. This battle has been postponed in August. If this continues, in terms of national strength, I am afraid that our army will be defeated miserably..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Changqing also stood up and expressed his consent: "King, according to the current situation, although our country has formed an alliance with Liang Kingdom, the Liang army also shows signs of defeat. If this war continues, Qin Liang may not only not defeat Jin Kingdom, but will destroy himself..."

"As far as my beloved said, the battle to attack Jin is my wrong decision?" Xiao Yuan looked at him.
