In the siege battle, the 600,000 army suffered nearly 100,000 casualties, but most of the dead were the bandit legions from all over the Western Regions that rushed to the front, and the number of casualties among the elite legions sent by the major lords was not large. Especially the Guards, except for the death of the great leader Gandalf in battle, only suffered less than a thousand casualties, it can be said that the vitality of the army under Sang Kun was not injured, and the strength on the surface was still more than that of the Qin army. For no other reason, their cavalry was nearly twice as large as the Qin army, and if they were to charge and kill on a frontal battlefield, it would be difficult for the Qin army to withstand such a surprise attack.

Sang Kun also knew where his advantages were, so he didn't choose to stay in Beijun City, otherwise his fate would likely be the fate of the Beijun City cavalry. The role of cavalry on the battlefield is more as a force and a sharp knife than as a main force, except when the number of cavalry reaches a level of terror.

"Great chief, the scouts found an army of Huns at the north gate, and the number should be more than fifty thousand. Haruki walked into the big tent, knelt in front of Sang Kun and said.

The Huns were not surprised at all when they came here, this place was less than a thousand miles away from the Huns' grassland, and since Yinting's little girl became the Hun Khan, their relationship with Daqin has been increasing day by day, and this time they know that they are here, and they must want to destroy themselves completely.

Sang Kun swallowed the fatty roast mutton in his mouth, and said to Haruki: "Don't worry about them, Yinting's little girl will not die to kill me, when I was in the Western Regions, she sent people to kill me more than once." I'll keep this account in mind for her, it's okay if he sends someone this time, let's give her a little bit of power, and when I conquer Daqin, I will kill and return to the grassland, and then I will turn this little slut into my slave." ”

Haruki also hated Yinting very much, because after he fled with Sangkun, all his family members were killed, just because they were Sangkun's people, and later Haruki learned that his youngest son was not dead, but he was trained to be the most loyal guard by Yinting's side, which made him uncomfortable than killing Haruki.

"What the big leader said is that the grassland is what an eagle-like character like the big leader should have, she Yinting is just a woman, why can she own the entire grassland by relying on her father?"

Sang Kun casually wiped his oily hands on the exotic beauty sitting beside him, and then said: "Haruki, don't worry, as my most loyal subordinate, when I return to the grassland, I will reward you with the most beautiful grassland on the grassland." ”

Haruki knelt down in front of Sang Kun again and said respectfully: "Great Chief, Haruki swears to follow the Great Leader to the death. ”

"Now we only need to defeat these Qin people, as long as we defeat them, then not only the grassland, but even the land of Great Qin will be ours. By the way, when will the 100,000 slaves that Lord Lord said arrive?"

Soon after Sangkun and the others set off on their crusade, the lord sent another army of slaves, and according to the distance, it was almost there.

"They have just crossed the Great Wall of Great Qin, and they should arrive in a day. ”

"Okay, the day after tomorrow, we will fight to the death with the Qin army. ”

With the support of 50,000 Hun cavalry, the Qin army in the Beijun city was full of confidence in the big battle with the Hu army. This time, inside and outside the city of Beijun, the combined strength of the two armies was nearly one million, far more than the number of people in the Battle of Changping, which could be said to have helped the Qin State to establish a victory in the world. Back then, Wu Anjun Bai Qi was able to win the 400,000 Zhao army, and today Meng Tian believes that he can also defeat the 500,000 Hu army.

There was no movement in the Hu people's camp for two consecutive days, Meng Tian and all the Qin army generals felt very strange, and they also sent scouts to find out the news, but the people around the Hu people's camp were seen dead and couldn't get close at all. Once someone was found approaching, they would shoot them with arrows regardless of whether they were friends or enemies, and the Qin army would stop sending people forward.

"Big brother, these Hu people are really interesting, they were still attacking the city with their lives two days ago, but there was no movement at all yesterday and today. Why, hearing about the arrival of the great general, these Hu people were frightened and didn't dare to come?" Wang Li, Meng Tian and other generals stood on the west city gate, looking at the Hu camp in the distance and said with a smile.

Du Hui said on the side: "That's not it, our army of Daqin is much more powerful than these miscellaneous soldiers, and they suffered a big loss the day before yesterday, it is estimated that they shrank in the nest and lick their wounds." ”

"Don't talk nonsense. Wang Li and Du Hui were joking, which made everyone's expressions lighter. The Hu camp in the distance stretches to the west, and the camp is almost the width of the entire Xicheng city wall, and the depth does not know how long, anyone who sees it will inevitably be a little timid in their hearts.

Meng Tian said to the people around him: "The terrain outside the city of Beijun is not suitable for attacks and ambushes, so Hu dared to set up camp directly under our city. This battle is not only a battle between us and Sang Kun, but also a battle between our Great Qin and the countries of the Western Regions, if this is defeated, then the Western Regions will also become our bag, on the contrary, if we lose, then the territory of Great Qin will be in danger, so we can't take it lightly. ”

"Father rest assured, as long as the Hu people dare to come, we will be able to let them come and go. Meng Tianci also said on the side.

Meng Tian didn't speak, and now he was worried not only about the war outside Beijun City, but also about the court inside Xianyang City. Now that His Majesty the Emperor is in poor health, Xu Fu, who was sent to find the elixir of life, has not heard from him for a long time, and I am afraid that the emperor's body will not last long. Although Fusu is the eldest son of the emperor, now that he is not in Xianyang City, it is difficult for Fusu to rely on himself and Hu Hai, who has the backing of Zhao Gao and Li Si.

So Meng Tian wants to have a decisive battle with the Hu people, but now he is short of time and can't fight a long battle with the Hu people here.

"Send the order down, pay close attention to the movements of the Hu people, and tell me as soon as there is any movement. "Ninth

Zhao Gao led the imperial doctor out of Yingzheng's dormitory, and Yingzheng drank the medicine and lay down on the couch to rest. "How is Your Majesty's health?" Zhao Gao led the Imperial Physician to a relatively remote place and asked him.

Now Zhao Gao's power is much greater than that of a CRRC government order, and many ministers in the court have been bought by him, and the imperial doctor does not dare to offend Zhao Gao.

"Back to Lord Zhao, His Majesty's body is a little weak, it should be caused by fatigue, as long as you insist on taking medicine, there should be no problem. The Imperial Physician replied respectfully standing behind Zhao Gao.

Zhao Gao turned around, and he said, "That's not what I asked, I want to know how long you can live according to Your Majesty's current situation?"

The imperial doctor was taken aback by Zhao Gao's words, and if he talked about such a thing in the palace, it would be a big crime to kill his head if he was not careful. "This ......" the imperial doctor was resigned, and his face was embarrassed.

Zhao Gao snorted, shook out a cloth bag from his sleeve, and threw it in front of the imperial doctor. "Don't worry, I'm not a ruthless person, and I will give generous gifts to those who have helped me. For those who are not willing to go the same way with me, I will 'repay' him well. Doctor Wang, don't let me down. ”

Imperial Physician Wang was so frightened by Zhao Gao's words that he knelt directly on the ground, and he said: "Lord Zhao Mingjian, the villain doesn't dare to answer this question of the adult, and he doesn't know how to answer it. ”

"Oh, how do you say?"

Imperial Physician Wang knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty's body is not very good, and it is not to that point. The lord asked me how long His Majesty could hold on, and this villain really didn't know, according to the pulse, His Majesty's body should be fine if it lasted another year or two. ”

"One or two years, one or two ......years" Zhao Gao recited several times for a year or two, with this or two years, I am afraid that Meng Tian has already destroyed the Hu people in the north and returned to Xianyang City, and when the time comes, it will be even more difficult for Hu Hai to take the throne.

"Get up first, don't worry, I don't think I heard what you said today. Zhao Gao asked Imperial Physician Wang to stand up, and then picked up the money bag and put it in Imperial Physician Wang's hand. "As long as you do what I say, there will be glory and wealth in the future. ”

Imperial Physician Wang took the money bag that Zhao Gao put in his hand with trembling hands, and the sweat on his forehead kept dripping. "Villain...... The villain is only Lord Zhao. ”

After sending off the imperial physician, Zhao Gao had nothing to do in the palace, and left the palace and asked his subordinates to drive him straight to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Li Si was studying and raising food and grass for the war in Northern Xinjiang in his own house, and suddenly heard that Zhao Gao had arrived, so he hurriedly put down the bamboo slips in his hand and got up to greet him.

"Why is Lord Zhao free to come to my mansion today?" Li Si looked at Zhao Gao's face with a smile on his face, and asked inexplicably.

Zhao Gao and Li Si entered the room and sat down, Li Si asked his subordinates to serve tea to the two of them and drove them all away.

After Zhao Gao sat down, he said to Li Si: "Prime Minister, I came to you today because I want to discuss something with my lord, this matter is related to the future of you and me, so I have to come." ”

"But what about Gongzi Hu Hai?" Without Zhao Gao saying it, Li Si could guess what he wanted to say.

Zhao Gao shook his head, he said: "Actually, this matter has nothing to do with Gongzi Hu Hai, I came to the prime minister to think of a way, can you transfer Fusu from Xianyang." ”

"Let Fusu leave Xianyang?" asked Li Si.

Zhao Gao looked at Li Si, he thought for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty's physical condition must be clear to the Prime Minister right now, if, I mean, if Your Majesty really returns to heaven one day, then he will definitely choose Fusu as the heir to the throne, then what we have been planning for so long will not come to naught." So I was thinking, it's better to take advantage of the fact that Meng Tian is not in Xianyang, and most of the generals follow him on the expedition, and now is the best time for us to expel Fusu from Xianyang. ”

"Lord Zhao seems to have forgotten that there is also Meng Yi's group of Wenchen, who probably won't agree to drive Fusu out of Xianyang City. Now in the court, although the prime minister can issue an edict instead of His Majesty, it must also be approved by Meng Yi and others. I'm afraid that what Lord Zhao said is not so easy. Li Si shook his head, Zhao Gao's idea is indeed good, but it is difficult to succeed.

Zhao Gao took a sip of tea, and then said: "That's why I came to find the Prime Minister, I already have a way in my heart, and then the Prime Minister only needs to cooperate with me to implement it." A smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Gao's mouth.
