Chapter 246

Under the heavens, only the officials of Qin Guo could do this.

Because since the Shang Yang Reforms, Qin Guo had been trained by Shang Yang into a huge war machine. Even the daily lives of ordinary people were regulated and restricted by laws, let alone those Qin officials.

However, the more this was the case, the more vigilant Han Fei became. Qin Guo had always been profit-driven; doing such things was definitely not out of good intentions!

"Of course Qin Guo would not provide relief to Han Guo for no reason, but what if it were providing relief to its own people?" Su Xuan looked at Han Fei and said indifferently: "When this area is occupied by Qin Guo, it is already considered Qin Guo's territory, and the people within the territory are also the people of Qin Guo!"

"Haven't you noticed that when they get grain, they smile so happily?"

"Being a citizen of Han Guo or a citizen of Qin Guo, for the lowest-class people, there is actually no difference. What they seek is just to survive."

Han Fei's expression changed drastically. He finally realized Qin Guo's purpose.

"Qin Guo intends to destroy Han Guo and eliminate the resistance of the Han Guo people!"

"Did you guess it?" Su Xuan said, "Unfortunately, it's too late!"

"Currently, you can't do anything. You can only watch Han Guo perish!"

The cold words came from Su Xuan's mouth and fell into Han Fei's ears.

Han Fei and Wei Zhuang were both shocked. They originally thought that this time Qin Guo was just like in previous years, taking advantage of Han Guo's crisis to come and plunder. They did not expect that Qin Guo's purpose from the beginning was to destroy Han Guo.

Han Guo would be destroyed by Qin Guo; Han Fei had never thought of such a thing.

Although Han Guo was weak and Qin Guo was strong, this gap was not insurmountable.

Qin Guo was strong because of the Shang Yang Reforms. If Han Guo's reforms were carried out thoroughly, it could also become stronger step by step.

Although Han Guo did not have much land, it still had one advantage, which was that it had enough people. If they followed the Shang Yang Reforms of Qin Guo back then and trained these people to be soldiers, even if they faced Qin Guo, they could still fight.

Han Fei thought very beautifully, and it was precisely because he thought very beautifully that he dared to speak wildly back then, saying that he wanted ninety-nine percent of the world of the Seven States.

However, now, he found he was wrong.

Qin Guo did not intend to give Han Guo any time to develop and grow, and was prepared to destroy Han Guo in one battle.

After knowing Qin Guo's purpose, Han Fei's mood was very bad. He could only force himself to be stubborn and said: "Qin Guo wants to destroy Han Guo, it is not as easy as you imagine. Han Guo still has the strength to fight!"

"Yes, it only has the strength to fight one battle." Su Xuan replied, "And this battle is already over."

"You probably don't know yet, Han Guo's one-hundred-thousand border army has already been routed. Even if your Crown Prince gathered a large amount of grain from wealthy merchants and nobles through plunder, even if the grain was abundant, they are not the opponents of the Qin Guo army. Now, they are being chased and killed by Wang Yi's army, and many remnants are retreating toward Xinzheng."

"Besides, even Xinzheng is not as safe as you imagine."

Su Xuan told Han Fei the latest military report.

Han Fei and Wei Zhuang were shocked. They thought of a possibility.

Yes!

Xinzheng is indeed not as safe as imagined.

Because that is... the headquarters of the Night Curtain.

Since the Night Curtain, under Su Xuan's instigation, incited Ji Yihu to manipulate grain prices, causing grain prices in Han Guo to skyrocket and people to live in misery, then, this time Qin Guo intends to destroy Han, how could the Night Curtain stand by?

I am afraid that when he and Wei Zhuang left Xinzheng to borrow grain from Wei Guo, the Night Curtain had already taken new actions.
