Chapter 2932 Wang Mang: Is Qin Zheng Qin Shihuang?


    Chapter 2929 Wang Mang: Is Qin Zheng Qin Shihuang?


    Ashina Yixin''s crazy assassination made Wei, Song, Ming and Wu a very troubled country. They all wanted to solve this problem, but they could not lock in their position. In desperation, they could only increase their pursuit of Ashina Yixin.


    Under the joint pursuit of many masters from the four countries of Wei, Song, Ming and Wu, Ashina Yixin, who had no way to go to the earth, had to escape into the Qin territory to avoid the pursuit, but was also targeted by Susano.


    Although Ashina Yixin hated the tyranny of the Han people, she also knew that the Qin Dynasty was the overlord of the Han people, and the number of masters was even more than that of the four kingdoms of Wei, Song, Ming and Wu, so naturally she did not dare to provoke them easily.


    He had never committed a case in the Qin territory before. If it were not forbidden to do so, he would not have fled to the Qin ruling area and encountered the former Japanese general, the most powerful general in Yingzhou, Susano.


    Although Ashina Ichizu can fight against the great master Cao Qiudao in a short period of time, compared with Susanono, who can defeat the great master above level, the strength gap is still too big, and he will naturally be defeated by Susanonono in the end.


    Susano naturally couldn''t bear to kill a hero like Ashina Yixin. It was only his responsibility to take action, so he finally chose to capture it alive.


    After learning about Ashina Yixin''s deeds, Qin Zheng, the governor of Yingzhou, also felt that Ashina Yixin was a talent and had excellent character, so he wanted to persuade him to serve the Qin Dynasty.


    After several repeated persuasions by Qin Zheng and many repeated persuasions by Susano, Ashina Yixin dispelled his hostility to the Qin Dynasty. After truly understanding the power of the Han countries, he also realized that the Han rule in Yingzhou could not be overthrown.


    The Han people could no longer leave after they tasted the sweetness in Yingzhou. Even if they overturned one of them, they would soon be replaced by the other. It is of little significance in essence. Moreover, the major forces in Yingzhou are also deeply bound to the Han people.


    Since you are destined to be unable to beat it, it is better to join the initiative.


    This is also the true thoughts of the doves such as Susano, Tsukido, and Kenshin Uesugi.


    After witnessing the rule of the Qin Dynasty on Yingzhou with his own eyes, it was indeed not as brutal as the four kingdoms of Wei, Song, Wu and Ming. After gradually understanding the mentality of the doves, he decided to surrender to the Qin, the strongest among all forces, and Ai Ming, led by him, also surrendered to the Qin Dynasty.


    Although Ai Mingzhong suffered heavy losses under the encirclement of the Wei, Song and Ming dynasties, due to the continuous trouble, it also made him famous in the Green Forest River and Lake, and he easily added many new members, so his strength was still not weak.


    Of course, the most important point is the surrender of Ai Mingzhong, which greatly reduced the resistance of the Yingzhou civilians to the rule of the Qin Dynasty.


    After all, Ashinazhong has a very high reputation in Yingzhou, and represents justice and justice in the hearts of many civilians. Even they surrendered to the Qin Dynasty, which in a certain sense also shows that the Qin Dynasty is more popular.


    Ashina Ichi-xin and Ashina''s surrender to the Qin Dynasty also made the remnants of Japan headed by Toyotomi Hideyoshi furious. They were not thinking that they would arouse the vigilance of the Han people, so they did not take action, but instead watched Ashina Ichi-xin struggle.


    It was not until Ashina was determined to surrender to the Qin Dynasty that Toyotomi Hideyoshi and others regretted it because they missed not only a general, but also the hearts of a large number of people at the bottom.


    There are actually not a few local people like Ashina Ichizu, Maeda Kyoji, Shimazu Tada, and Shimazu Tadaetsu, who really surrendered to the Qin Dynasty. However, the personnel components are too mixed and it is difficult to distinguish the loyalty and treacherous among them, so most of them are still under investigation.


    On the other hand, Wang Mang did not have as many concerns as the Qin Dynasty. As long as he came from Yingzhou, he would dare to accept anyone who defected to him. This time he would choose to send troops to Jiuzhou. In addition to being forced by Jin Qing to expand his territory, another reason is to recruit talents from Yingzhou.


    Wang Mang knew very well that the war was about talents, but even if the Sanhan Peninsula had been unified, there were not enough talents for him to drive it. Instead, Yingzhou, separated by a sea, had a talent density that was no less than that of the Central Plains.


    In fact, this is normal. The talents accumulated by Japan for thousands of years appeared on an island at the same time. How could the talent density be low?


    However, although Yingzhou has a large number of talents, its quality is much worse. Most of the attributes are between 50 and 80. Those who can reach 90 are already top talents, and those who have exceeded 100 are even rarer, let alone gold-level talents.


    But Wang Mang is not qualified to be picky, and he has no other choice. It is better to have Japanese people than not?


    Since he is destined to be unable to win in terms of quality, Wang Mang can only overtake in terms of quantity.


    After listening to Yuan Gai Suwen''s story, Wang Mang suppressed his anger and asked, "In that case, did you lose another time after the defeat of Toshiki Castle because you met Ashina Yixin and were injured even more? "


    Although Wang Mang made sufficient preparations before traveling through time, he really had no impression of Ashina Yixin, who didn''t play games much, so he just thought that this was a buried local figure and did not have much fear in his heart.


    "Uh, that''s not..."


    Yuan Gaisuwen showed an embarrassment. After hesitating for a while, he still truthfully explained the other miserable defeat he experienced after Renjicheng''s defeat.


    In short, although the injured Ashigasubuki was defeated by Ashina Yixin, it also became a cover for the retreat of the defeated army. However, after the war, he thought of a trick to lure the enemy and wanted to turn the tide.


    Yun Gaisuwen deliberately chose the public. He was seriously injured due to the previous war and the morale of the army was turbulent. He wanted to show the enemy''s weakness and lure the Qin army to attack, but he joined forces with the Japanese general Shibata Katsuya to set up an ambush.


    That''s right, it was the one who was burned by Wu Qi in the war against Japan, and Urato Castle and 100,000 troops were destroyed by the head of the Oda family.


    Even Wu Qi thought that Shibata Katsuya was dead, but in fact the fire did not burn Shibata Katsuya. He noticed something was wrong in advance, but he could no longer stop the Qin army''s fire attack. He could only escape from Puyuan City with a small number of confidants, which avoided the fate of being burned to death. As for Shibata Katsuya, who escaped from the queen of the world, why didn’t he defect to Toyotomi Hideyoshi? Instead, he followed Wang Mang with a far-reaching look? The reason is actually very simple, these two people have a deep holiday.


    I don’t know if it is the inertia of history. These two people are mortal enemies in the original history. Shibata Katsuya even preferred to ignite explosives and commit suicide after being defeated in the Battle of Kushita than to surrender to Tengjin Hideyoshi.


    The two people''s holidays in this life are still quite good, but the real reason why Shibata Katsuya chose Wang Mang was that after the fall of Japan, Toyotomi Hideyoshi''s attitude towards the Han people was too weak, which made him unable to see the hope of restoring the country, so he chose Wang Mang by looking far away.


    Shibata Katsuya was not Wang Mang who surrendered to alone. After learning that he surrendered to Wang Mang, some people who were also dissatisfied with the Tomoeshi Hideyoshi also came to surrender, such as Guoxin Jushi, the Three Grand Duke of the Hundred Lands, etc. This also made Shibata Katsuya the leader of the Japanese military generals under Wang Mang.


    Although Wang Mang only had a bigger place in the three Hans, as he officially occupied Kitajiuzhou, his command could already be divided into four major factions: Han, Korean, Japanese, and foreign tribes.


    The first three are naturally divided according to their own tribes, and the last foreign tribes are all foreign tribes except the three Japanese tribes of the Han Dynasty.


    Although Shibata Katsuya was the leader of the Japanese clan, Yoshigasubuki was also a leader in the Korean clan. He came to seek cooperation on his own initiative, so Shibata Katsuya was naturally not easy to refuse.


    Shibata Katsuya had never dealt with Qin Zheng before, so he didn''t know how powerful Qin Zheng was. Although Yoshigai Suwen''s plan was a bit concealed, it was still very feasible. Besides, even if it was seen through, at least he would not be defeated.


    With this idea in mind, Shibata Katsuya decided to cooperate with Yoon Gaisuwen to implement the plan to lure the enemy, but he did not expect that he could not only fail to plot against Qin Zheng, but was ambushed by Qin Zheng, and the casualties were even greater than those in the previous battle, with nearly 8,000 casualties.


    Yuan Gai Suwen first fell into Qin Zheng''s counter-espionage plan, and then fell into a series of plans, which made Wang Mang so angry that he couldn''t speak.


    You should know that since the march and occupation of Beijiuzhou, Wang Mang''s army has suffered less than 1,000 casualties, while Yuan Gaisuwen''s two consecutive defeats have caused him to lose a total of 11,000 troops.


    The total strength of North Korea was only 160,000, and it lost one-sixteenth of the loss at once. How could Wang Mang not feel distressed? At the same time, his fear of Qin Zheng reached its peak, and even reached the level second only to Ying Hao.


    At first, Wang Mang didn''t take Qin Zheng seriously, thinking that the other party was just a capable family, but he came from an excellent family. However, after learning about Qin Zheng''s specific experience, he realized that Qin Zheng was far from as simple as it appeared.


    Ying Wen''s adopted son joined the army at the age of 18 and rarely suffered defeat. His achievements cannot be said to be top-notch, but they are definitely not bad, but the most important thing is to repay his political achievements.


    Qin Zheng served as the governor of Jingzhou, Yongzhou, and Yingzhou, three states. During his tenure, these three states had their own problems, but he not only solved them, but also each state was governed in an orderly manner, especially Yongzhou and Yingzhou.


    During Qin Zheng''s tenure as the governor of Yongzhou, Li Tang had not been destroyed yet, and Li Shimin was even more active in all kinds of moves, but Qin Zheng was able to resist with each other.


    As for the position of governor of Yingzhou, it is even more of a hot potato. After all, Yingzhou has so many forces and complex situations. Even Wang Mang does not have 100% confidence to cope with it, but Qin Zheng is dealing with it like a fish in water.


    There are not many such political response capabilities in history, so even Wang Mang has to doubt Qin Zheng''s identity.


    Could it be that Qin Zheng is really a sage of Qin Shihuang? Wang Mang said in his heart.


    There are three reasons why Wang Mang never regarded Qin Zheng as the First Emperor:


    First, although there are not many people named Zheng, there are not none;


    Second, among the indigenous people of this era, there were indeed many buried talents, such as: Ashina Ichixin, etc.;


    Third, he didn''t think that a person like Qin Shihuang would surrender to anyone.


    Among these three reasons, the third point is the most important, but this is actually Wang Mang''s inherent thinking. From the bottom of his heart, he did not think that Qin Shihuang would surrender to anyone, so naturally he would not ignore this aspect.


    But in fact, Wang Mang only needs to think about this aspect and know that the biggest reason why Ying Zheng was able to become the First Emperor was because he was the eldest son of King Zhuangxiang. Without this identity, no matter how strong Ying Zheng''s personal ability is, he would never be able to become Qin Shihuang.


    Qin Zheng was Ying Zheng who lost the right to inherit. His father in this life was not King Zhuangxiang, but Ying Wen''s younger brother. Although he was Ying Wen''s adopted son, Ying Wen had his own son and Ying Hao also had his own son, so Qin Zheng did not have any qualifications to inherit in the legal system.


    Reality is often so cruel, without the support of the law. Even Qin Shihuang could only be content with oneself and be honest as a minister.


    After realizing that Qin Zheng might be the empress of Qin Shi Huang, Wang Mang knew that Jiuzhou might not be that easy to fight. Even if Qin Zheng did not have any strong generals under his command now, he would have to put all his strength to deal with it seriously. After all, Qin Shi Huang deserves such treatment.


    Wang Mang is looking forward to it. If he can defeat or even kill Qin Zheng in the next battle, I wonder if Ying Hao''s expression will be ugly.


    As soon as he thought of this, Wang Mang was about to summon all his civil and military personnel to discuss ways to deal with Qin Zheng.
