Chapter 344: I have some influence in the Qin State!

Because the front line was fighting, the pace of Su Xuan and others seemed very slow, and Su Xuan had no intention of participating in the Chu State war.

Shouchun City was not the earliest capital of the Chu State.

Even, the Chu State had only moved into this capital for a few years.

All of this had to start from the last vertical alliance of the five Shandong states in the sixth year of the Qin King Zheng.

Following Ying Zheng's succession, Lu Lu Buwei held power, and he continued to adopt the policy of befriending distant states and attacking nearby ones. In just five years, he attacked the Wei State four times, the Han State three times, and the Zhao State once. North of the Yellow River, he occupied the Shangdang Commandery of the Han State, rebuilt the Taiyuan Commandery, cut off the connection between the Yan, Zhao, Wei, and Han states, and strategically created a flanking encirclement situation against the Zhao, Wei, and Han states.

To break the unfavorable situation and seek survival, the Shandong states tried their best in the sixth year of the Qin King Zheng to form a five-state alliance of Zhao, Wei, Han, Yan, and Chu, commanded by the Zhao general Pang Nuan to attack the Qin State.

Originally, the Lord of Lord Xinling was also prepared to participate in this battle.

But the Qin State also noticed the actions between the five Shandong states, and ultimately, used the power of the Net to assassinate the Lord of Lord Xinling before the vertical alliance. Therefore, this battle did not have the participation of the Lord of Lord Xinling.

But without the Lord of Lord Xinling, the Lord of Lord Chunshen, who was also one of the four lords of the Warring States, participated in it.

Lord Lord Chunshen, Huang Huang Xie, was the Lingyin of the Chu State, with a noble status. The Chu King at that time, who was the father of Lord Lord Changping, King King Kaolie of Chu, was able to escape from the Qin State and return to succeed as king with his help, so he was extremely trusted by the Chu King.

Unfortunately, having trust was useless.

Among the four lords of the Warring States, the most capable was the Lord of Lord Xinling.

The fourth vertical alliance hosted by the Lord of Lord Xinling in the past, although ultimately because of the Qin State's counter-espionage, the Lord of Lord Xinling had his military power taken away, but from the result, that vertical alliance was barely considered successful, and the vertical alliance army gave the Qin State a great defeat.

And the fifth vertical alliance, although the vertical alliance army initially gained some advantages, ultimately lost to the Qin State.

As a loser, one naturally had to pay a price.

The price was that the several states participating in the vertical alliance were successively subjected to fierce retaliation by the Qin State in the following years. The Chu State, also because of the Qin State's retaliation, had to move its capital to this Shouchun City.

A few years after moving to Shouchun City, King King Kaolie of Chu passed away from illness. Not long after he died, Lord Lord Chunshen was also ambushed and killed by Li Qu Yuan.

And today, it had not even been ten years since the Chu State moved its capital.

This new capital of the Chu State was also about to meet its end.

Because Su Xuan intentionally controlled the pace of the journey.

When Su Xuan and the three arrived near Shouchun, it happened to be when Wang Xuan Jian's army broke through Shouchun City.

Watching those Chu State nobles being treated like livestock, under the escort of the Qin army, walking out of Shouchun City one after another.

Han Xin, who was mingling in the crowd watching, had his eyes flickering slightly.

"Why, is it uncomfortable?"

Su Xuan turned his head and glanced at Han Xin, because strictly speaking, Han Xin was also a Chu State person. Witnessing the destruction of the Chu State, it was inevitable that he would feel a bit uncomfortable.

"No, I am rejoicing in one thing now!"

Han Xin's voice was very calm, stating his inner feelings without a ripple.

"Fortunately, I didn't join the army like the young people in the village!"

Han Xin admired his own eye more and more.

After the Qin State attacked Chu, many young people in the Chu State, including many fellow villagers in their village, joined the army to defend the Chu State, but Han Xin saw that the Qin State was powerful and the Chu State could not be defeated. Joining the army at this time would only be rushing to death.

So, even though many people in the village pointed at him and despised him, he never paid attention to it.

Isn't it good to be alive?

There were plenty of opportunities to make contributions, but now was definitely not the best opportunity.

After seeing the destruction of the Chu State, Han Xin felt some relief.

Yan Fei, hearing Han Xin's words, could not help but glance at Han Xin. It had to be said that Han Xin was a bit special, but this specialness made it hard for people to look up to him; on the contrary, it made people despise him.

To be able to speak so frankly about being afraid of death and loving ease was also a skill.

I really don't know why Lord Master Xuantian would value this person so much.

"Sect Master, are we just going to enter the city like this?"

Han Xin only knew about the Yin-Yang School and did not know what kind of influence the Yin-Yang School had. Seeing Su Xuan was going to take him into Shouchun City, he could not help but ask.

The Qin State had just broken through Shouchun City. At this time, it was expected that they should be counting the prisoners of the Chu State.

If they broke in rashly, would they not be treated as rebels of the Chu State?

Han Xin was a bit worried.

"Rest assured, I have some influence in the Qin State!"

Su Xuan said faintly.

Then, he took Han Xin and Yan Fei and walked toward Shouchun City.

Wang Xuan Jian's army, after breaking through Shouchun City, was stationed in Shouchun City. They strictly guarded this capital of the Chu State to prevent any changes, and at the same time, prohibited the people in the city from going out. This was to prevent some nobles or wealthy merchants from taking the opportunity to escape.

Ordinary people were fine.

People like wealthy merchants and nobles all needed to be moved to Xianyang.

Just because these people had power, influence, and money, if left alone, they could raise a large group of people to rebel at any time. These people were the most unstable elements and needed to be strictly guarded.

Seeing Su Xuan and the three intending to enter the city at this time, Qin soldiers immediately came up to question them, and their attitude was not good.

Han Xin felt a bit panicked when he heard the other party's questioning.

But immediately after, he found that his anxiety was superfluous. After Su Xuan took out a token, the soldier who was questioning Su Xuan and others immediately bowed respectfully to Su Xuan.

Afterward, higher-level generals came.

When Su Xuan proposed to see General Wang Xuan Jian, the other party readily agreed.

These scenes made Han Xin more and more curious about Su Xuan's influence in the Qin State.

It seemed that this Sect Master's influence was truly not small.

In the palace of Shouchun City.

Wang Xuan Jian's central army camp was moved here. As for the many royal family members of the Chu State, with the fall of Shouchun City, they had become prisoners and would be escorted to Xianyang like the monarchs and ministers of the destroyed states.

When Han Xin followed Su Xuan here, he saw an old man with gray hair and beard.

"Old General Wang, long time no see!"

Su Xuan greeted Wang Xuan Jian. He knew Wang Xuan Jian and had met him several times. Although they were not close friends, they could still talk.

"Why does Mr. Su have time to come to this Chu State?"

Wang Xuan Jian was different from Wang Ben. When Wang Ben first saw Su Xuan, his attitude was arrogant and indifferent. Wang Xuan Jian was not; he even showed some smiles and chatted with Su Xuan.

"Some private matters, so I came to the Chu State."

Su Xuan said, and praised Wang Xuan Jian: "It's just that as soon as I arrived in Shouchun, I saw the scene of Old General Wang breaking the city and destroying Chu. Counting the Chu State destroyed this time, Old General Wang has successively destroyed three states."

"This kind of merit has already surpassed that of the Martial Lord Bai Qi in the past!"
