"You estimate how many of the Parthian troops have reached the Western Regions." King Qin asked, looking at the map.

"Going back to the king, we don't know the specific figures, but they are based on the intelligence sent from the front line." Wang Jian said worriedly.

"The military strength is at least about 15,000. This may be just a forward force of the Parthian nation." Wang Jian continued.

Hearing this, King Qin frowned. I want to make King Qin even more worried about the emergence of the forward troops of the Parthian nation.

"My lord, this battle must be fought." Wei Liao stood by and said.

"However, financial pressure can't be beaten." Qin Wang said worriedly.

"But this battle has reached the point where it has to be fought." Wei Liao said.

"Yeah. My lord, the forward troops of the Parthian nation have appeared, and the situation is already in a state of having to fight. If the main force of the Parthian nation appears, this will be even worse for our situation." Wang Jian said worriedly.

"It's not that a widow doesn't want to fight. It's that Qin's financial problems have not solved Wen's problem." King Qin said while looking at the map.

"Zhao Gao." King Qin shouted loudly.

"Master," Zhao Gao said carefully.

"Go and invite the prime minister. It is impossible to fight without the prime minister's budget." King Qin ordered.

"Here." Zhao Gao agreed carefully. Then he left quickly.

"Whether this battle can be fought, how to fight it, depends on the prime minister's decision." King Qin said while looking at the map.

"Qin is currently financially tight, and you all know that without the Prime Minister's approval in the budget, I am afraid that this battle will be really difficult to fight." King Qin looked at the map and said worriedly.

"My lord, it seems to the minister that this battle must be fought." Wei Liao stood up and said at this time.

"En." King Qin nodded. Said that his views are consistent with Wei Liao's.

"My Qin army is expanding very quickly, but I am not clear about the surrounding situation. If there is an opponent like Qin in the Western Regions, then there will be a situation where the two tigers will fight. Qin can only defeat this fierce tiger. Only in order to stabilize the current situation in the Western Regions can the state of Qin's foundation in the Western Regions be stabilized. Otherwise, the State of Qin is likely to withdraw from the Western Regions." Wei Liao said solemnly.

"The State of Qin absolutely cannot withdraw from the Western Regions. The land occupied by the State of Qin is not so easy to withdraw." King Qin said decisively.

"Wang Jian, do you think Qin can stand firm in the Western Regions?" King Qin asked.

"This. Chen believes that there are still many things we don't understand." Wang Jian said worriedly.

"Don't understand?" King Qin was a little surprised.

"Yes, Lord, there are indeed many places that we don’t know yet. For example, we don’t know the specific location of the Parthian kingdom in the Western Regions, how many people are there, and how big it is. We don’t know these things. Plus the language. Different. It has made our understanding of the Western Regions more difficult." Wang Jian said worriedly.

"How can you be so ignorant of military affairs?" King Qin looked at Wang Jian displeased, the enemy had already arrived. But Qin's military didn't even know anything. Such ignorance made King Qin frown even more. Knowing nothing in front of the station would seriously cause Qin State to know nothing. This war may be defeated. This made King Qin feel inexplicably nervous.

"My lord, it's no wonder General Wang." Wei Liao said at this time when he stood up and relieved the siege.

"The situation in the Western Regions is not only unknown to the military, but many people don’t. The prime minister also expressed great concern about this a few days ago. The Foreign Affairs College was established and the Department of Foreign Languages ​​was set up specifically to solve this problem. Language problem." Wei Liao explained.

"Well, it seems that the widows have wrongly blamed the general." King Qin said to Wang Jian apologetically.

"Don't dare to be." Wang Jian even said.

"Is there any such problem?" King Qin asked again.

"My lord, there are many more?" Wei Liao said.

"We don't know what the opponent's tactics, equipment, and national strength are." Wei Liao said.

King Qin heard this. Stand still and don't know what to say. Nothing is known about the enemy's situation. This is something that Qin has never encountered in a war.

On the edge of the Weihe River.

"How do you feel now?" Yingyu asked Shangwen.

"En. It's much easier." Shang Wen said with a smile.

"It's good to relax like this," Shang Wen said.

"How about going back to before?" Yingyu asked.

"En." Shang Wen nodded.

"Shangwen Shangwen." Just when Yingyu was about to answer. Meng Yi's voice has been heard.

"What's the matter?" Shang Wen looked at Yingyu, then looked in the direction of Meng Yi.

"I don't know. There is an emergency call from the king, asking you to enter the palace as soon as possible to discuss." Meng Yi said anxiously.

"Didn't you reveal it?" Shang Wen asked again at this time.

"I heard that Zhao Guo seems to have something wrong with the Western Regions. I don't know what happened." Meng Yi said.

"Western Regions?" Shang Wen frowned and looked at Meng Yi as he said.

"Yes. Western Regions." Meng Yi said affirmatively.

"This. It's difficult." Shang Wen said.

"No matter what, let's go." Meng Yi urged.

"En. Okay." Shang Wen nodded.

"Slow down, don't worry." Ying Yu asked on the side.

"En." Shang Wen nodded looking at Yingyu. Then follow Meng Yi towards Xianyang Palace.

"You said. What will happen to the Western Regions?" Shang Wen asked Meng Yi. Meng Yi just shook his head.

"I don't know. If there is a war, then the situation is not good." Meng Yi said worriedly.

"Fighting?" Shang Wen asked while looking at Meng Yi.

"I just guessed." Meng Yi said.

"Guess, there is a basis for that, and talk about your basis." Shang Wen said.

"My basis is the military report that appeared a few days ago. They said they were attacked by an army of unknown circumstances in the Western Regions." Meng Yi said.

"Isn't this an ordinary thing?" Shang Wen said.

"It seems ordinary, but it is not ordinary." Meng Yi said with experience.

"I don't know the specific situation. Maybe there are situations that we don't know." Meng Yi said.

"No matter what happens. We have to calculate with the worst plan. Only in this way can we adapt." Shang Wen said.

"Yes. If there is a war, we won't have a penny to pay for this war. This is a big blow for us." Meng Yi said worriedly.

"En. Fighting is money, and the material resources and manpower that money can use are the biggest. The problem is that if the Western Regions fight again, we must delay the development of the market plan that we can't allow. If this is really the case, I I really don't know what to do." Shang Wen said with great thought.

"En." Meng Yi glanced at Shang Wen. I know what Shang Wen is worried about. Shang Wen's mind at this time was more worried.

Inside the Xianyang Palace.

"Is the prime minister here?" King Qin asked.

"My lord, not yet." Wei Liao replied.

"En." King Qin nodded. Then walk back and forth. Shangwen and Meng Yi quickly walked towards the side hall.

"The prime minister, you are here. The king has urged it several times." An inmate cautiously said after seeing Shang Wen.

"Oh. Thanks a lot." Shang Wen said. Then stepped forward quickly with Meng Yi.

"My lord, the prime minister is here." A servant cautiously reported.

"Please," Qin Wang said, waving his arm.

The waiter carefully withdrew.

"The minister pays homage to the king." Shang Wen and Meng Yi saluted.

"Forget it. Wang Jian, tell them about the situation." King Qin said.

"This is a transcript. Our frontline troops in the Western Regions explored the bodies of enemies that we encountered. These enemies are different from the Western Regions. They have standard clothing and weapons. We preliminarily concluded that it may be the army of the Parthian nation as the prime minister said. About 15,000 people." Wang Jian said.

"En." Shang Wen looked at the transcript and listened to Wang Jian's introduction. Meng Yi also checked the telegram report provided by Wang Jian.

"Fifteen thousand people?" Meng Yi looked at Wang Jian in surprise.

"Yes. There are about 15,000 people. We judge that this may be the forward troops of the Parthian nation. They are testing us. We have to be prepared for the war, very kind, and the war will suddenly break out." Wang Jian said.

"This." Shang Wen looked at Wang Jian.

"Does the prime minister have any questions?" Wang Jian asked.

"Does the general want to go to war?" Shang Wen asked.

"Yes. The prime minister. There is only going to war. The opponent has already sent troops to attack. The situation in the entire Western Regions is very bad." Wang Jian said.

"Especially in terms of trade, the existence of the Parthian nation poses a great threat to Qin." Wang Jian said.

"At present, Qin State Finance can't come up with this amount of money." Shang Wen said.

"This." Wang Jian waved his hands when he heard this, and then looked at King Qin. It seems to signal to King Qin that you figure it out.

"This money must be available. Qin must not lose the Western Regions." King Qin said while looking at the map. The words of King Qin seemed to tell Shang Wen that the money had to be taken out anyway, and the war of Qin State was about to be settled.

"The Kingdom of Peace." Shang Wen said while looking at the map.

"Qin State is going to control the entire Western Regions. Or it is going to enter Central Asia." Shang Wen said.

"Central Asia." Wang Jian said while looking at Shang Wen.

"En. If this war is really to be fought, the Qin army may advance a lot, and marching into Central Asia is an inevitable result." Shang Wen said.

"En. The prime minister is also in favor of this battle?" King Qin asked Shangwen.

"En." Shang Wen shook his head, then nodded.

"Why is the prime minister like this?" King Qin said, looking at Shang Wen's painful expression.

"My lord, this battle may happen sooner or later, but this battle was fought too fast. It exceeded my expectations, not just this." Shang Wen looked at the map embarrassedly.

"It's more about Qin's finances. Finances can't support such a big battle." Shang Wen said with a wry smile.

"What the prime minister meant was that you had such a plan a long time ago?" King Qin asked Shangwen as he looked at him.

"En." Shang Wen nodded. Everyone was surprised.
