Chapter 663 The eldest prince is an old gambler
"Your Majesty, I don't think we can wait any longer. If we don't gather our troops, it may really be too late."
In the conference hall of the Maurya Dynasty, a general in the army said that he has been worried every day for the past few days.
The eldest prince lowered his head and thought. He had also thought about what the general said many times.
But often when he has impulsive thoughts, he keeps telling himself that he must hold his breath at this moment.
Daqin is definitely a country with integrity and grace.
If they did not accept the surrender, surely the emissary would be returned.
It must be impossible to reject himself and kill the messenger again.
The reason why they didn't bring the envoy back must be because they had other plans.
If you can't hold your breath at this moment, it may ruin the event.
Because the eldest prince knows very well how powerful Daqin's army is.
Even if the army is gathered at this moment, it will not be the opponent of Daqin at all.
So he wanted to gamble, and bet this time to the end.
He also firmly believed that with Daqin's demeanor, it was absolutely impossible for them to slaughter casually after taking down the Maurya Dynasty.
"hold on.
The eldest prince spoke, and the remaining ministers stopped talking. They also knew that the most anxious person at the moment must be the new king.
Even he said so, as a subordinate, then just wait with the boss.
In the Great Qin Army, spies went to the Maurya Dynasty every day to find news.
At this moment, Da Qin is only three days away from the Maurya Dynasty, but there is still no movement from the Maurya Dynasty.
This made Han Xin a little interested, the new king of the Peacock Dynasty, there is something.
A few days ago, Daqin's spies had discovered the drastic changes that had taken place in the Maurya Dynasty, and Han Xin also knew that the Maurya Dynasty had changed to a new king.
"General, why don't you put me back, at least let me send the news back. If this continues, I'm really afraid that the king can't bear it."
This is already the emissary of the Maurya Dynasty, and it is the third time today to find Han Xin.
Of course, Han Xin's answer to him was still the same as before.
In the past few days, the treatment the apostle received in Daqin's army was not bad.
But he was really worried that his majesty couldn't help but fight Da Qin Yu to the death.
But he couldn't send the news back, and he couldn't leave.
He has approached Han Xin several times. This person is the coach of Daqin's expedition this time. Every time the envoy went to him, he received him politely.
He didn't have the airs of a military commander at all, but every time he refused the envoy's request, he was very straightforward, the kind that didn't need to be discussed at all.
This also caused headaches for the messengers of the Maurya Dynasty.
After yet another defeat, the Maurya envoy returned to his tent in frustration.
He believed that His Majesty and the others might have already known about the movements of the Great Qin army.
The Qin army on the opposite side is oppressive, and they have not heard from themselves for a long time. They must think too much, and normally they will definitely be ready to fight.
If that's the case, I'm afraid the surrender letter will lose its effect.
The envoy couldn't figure it out at all, what was Han Xin thinking at the moment?
If just according to their conversation a few days ago, the Great Qin coach wanted to deter them from the Maurya Dynasty, then his goal had actually been achieved.
Even if the messenger is put back now, it will not affect their plan.
And after putting yourself back, it will even have a better effect.
After all, in the past few days, I have visited Daqin's barracks all over again.
He should already have a bottom line in his mind about the current combat effectiveness of the Great Qin army.
If he brings this news back to the Maurya Dynasty, it will also have a great deterrent effect.
But it happened that this Daqin coach was detaining him, which made him very puzzled.
Those who had the same doubts as the envoys of the Maurya Dynasty were the generals of the Qin army.
They also asked Han Xin in private, did they just pretend to accept the surrender letter of the Maurya Dynasty?
But in fact, we still need to use troops.
It's just that Han Xin also gave them an answer, very clear, since he accepted the surrender letter of the Maurya Dynasty, it is naturally impossible to mercenary them.
The reason why their envoys were detained was indeed because they wanted to deter the Maurya Dynasty at the beginning.
It was only later that there was another reason.
Because Han Xin wanted to test the new king of the Peacock Dynasty.
In the face of the Qin army that is about to approach the city, it is still indifferent, which is not something ordinary people can do.
........
Two days later, the army led by Han Xin was less than a day away from the border of the Maurya Dynasty.
At this time, Han Xin suddenly ordered the army to camp in place.
The performance of the new king of the Peacock Dynasty surprised Han Xin.
He didn't expect that at this point, it was not just as simple as being able to hold his breath.
Han Xin can conclude that the new king of the Peacock Dynasty is definitely not a mediocre person.
In fact, from the moment the letter of surrender was delivered, the eldest prince knew that he had completely lost his initiative in front of Da Qin.
The power of life and death can only be handed over to Daqin. If at the last moment, he can't hold back, he chooses to go to war with Daqin.
It's meaningless at all. If their Peacock Dynasty is really capable of challenging Daqin, how can they be so humble.
Of course, the eldest prince is not sure whether Daqin will accept the surrender of their Maurya Dynasty.
If the bet is won, their Maurya Dynasty might have a chance.
Of course, if they lose the bet, it will bring them disaster.
And he, the king who made a wrong decision, will definitely become a sinner of the Maurya Dynasty, be nailed to the pillar of shame, and be infamous for thousands of years.
But he did it anyway, and Han Xin stopped outside the border of the Maurya Dynasty, and he was telling the eldest prince that he had made the right bet.
At this point, if Daqin's army continued to approach, it would not be a temptation.
At the same time, the spies of the Peacock Dynasty also brought the news of the Qin army camping on the border to the eldest prince.
Until this time, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If the other party has not stopped at this time, then he really has no other choice but to choose to resist.
"Prepare a generous gift. This king will go to the front line in person to meet Han Xin."
As soon as the eldest prince said these words, the faces of the ministers around him changed drastically.
"Your Majesty, no, if the other party has malicious intentions, the consequences will be disastrous."
"That's right, Your Majesty, our envoys haven't come back yet, and Daqin's attitude is still unclear. How can you easily take risks."
Faced with the persuasion of the subordinates, the eldest prince waved his hand to signal them not to say any more.
At this moment, he knew better than anyone else that since Qin Jun stopped at this time, he must have accepted their surrender.
Perhaps Han Xin, General Han, who beat the entire Maurya Dynasty so hard that he couldn't lift his head, is waiting for him.
