Meng Tian stood on top of the outer wall, observing the enemy situation outside the palace. He is responsible for the defense of the Qin Emperor's eastern tour, and has the important responsibility of escorting.

The terrain around here is dangerous, and there are many places where you can hide soldiers. These days, the shadows of those thieves outside the mountains have come to an end. However, in Meng Tian's opinion, this is just a bluff at most!

The guards around Emperor Qin are all Guanzhong disciples, who have been on the battlefield for a long time, are well-trained, and have a bit of thieves, and they are not easy to kill.

But even if he thinks so, Meng Tian can't do this. After all, the safety of Emperor Qin is the most important, and it is indeed the safest way to recruit soldiers from nearby counties to defend against the enemy.

"Lord Meng Tian, Captain Xu Rong has led 10,000 soldiers to escort him."

It was a young general who spoke, because he had meritorious service when he followed the prince to attack Shushan, and then followed the prince into Baiyue, killed a lot of enemies, and made great achievements to the general.

However, compared to these dazzling achievements, the identity of this general itself is the most eye-catching. He is the grandson of the military god Wang Jian and the son of the general Wang Ben, Wang Li!

The Meng clan and the Wang clan are the two most prominent gate lords in the Great Qin military family. The descendants of all generations have held important positions in the army and are trusted by the Qin Emperor.

Meng Tian and Wang Li are both the eldest sons of the two families, but they are opponents, but with Wang Li's achievements today, they are more than a step behind Meng Tian.

"Got it!" Meng Tian nodded and said, "Let Xu Rong lead the soldiers to be stationed on Pingpo two miles outside the palace." After settling down, he immediately commanded the army to eliminate the bandits. ”

"The last general obeys!"

Just after the king left, Li Si, the prime minister of Great Qin, suddenly couldn't believe it and walked up to the low wall.

"Lord Meng Tian, I don't know how the defense is arranged?" Li Si put his hands behind him, looked at the county soldiers who had stopped in the distance, and asked.

"It's been prepared."

Between the Montessori clan and Li Si, there has always been a disagreement between face and heart. However, it was not a hostility in position, but an inherent difference between the civil and military generals.

In this era, it is normal for civil officials to cultivate martial arts and military generals to practice literature. How can a general who commands the three armies be a reckless man who does not know how to write and ink and does not know the art of war? And the prime minister, who is at the top of the hundred officials and has a hundred courtesies, will not be a man on paper.

Li Sinai is in charge of the Legalists, and he is in the position of the prime minister of the Qin State, so many years, he has assisted the Qin Emperor and established the system of three princes and nine secretaries with centralized imperial power, in order to stabilize the foundation of the Great Qin.

In this system, the military is an important part, but it is definitely not the most important link.

This is the fundamental difference between the two.

In Meng Tian's view, the remnants of the Six Kingdoms have not been cleared, and the Northern Xiongnu have not been destroyed, but this Li Si has been clamoring to reduce the expenditure of the army. Without the suppression of the army, I don't know what the chaos would be like in this world.

The two argued many times, but neither could convince anyone. Normally, Li Si would not ask Meng Tian how to use his troops, so when he appeared on the city wall, Meng Tian was really a little surprised.

"Meng Tian, you have to be prepared." Li Si looked at the somewhat dim sky outside the city, with a trace of sadness on his face, and admonished.

"Prime Minister rest assured, the last general will definitely not let those thieves disturb the holy driver." Meng Tian said with an oath.

"The general thinks that some thieves are still worth such a lot of trouble?"

"What does the prime minister mean?" Meng Tian said with his hand, Li Si's words seemed to have another meaning?

Only, what did he want to say?

Li Si didn't continue, turned around, walked down the city wall with his hands in his hands, and said, "His Majesty the Emperor is in great danger, and the general must not be careful. Meng Tian recalled Li Si's words in his mind, and secretly said that this time he was indeed making a little fuss. Although summoning local soldiers to defend against the enemy is a common practice when the Holy Driver encounters thieves, it is .......

Meng Tian looked at the county soldiers who were camping, his brows did not wrinkle, and he said secretly: "It's not for these thieves, then for what?" ”

…….

In the midst of mountains and dense forests.

Zhao Xie was surrounded by Long and a number of important people, and at this moment they were discussing the specific assassination plan before leaving the palace map.

"Here is the structure of the palace." Zhao Xie spread out an old animal skin map, "This palace is built by my Zhao family, this map is the original drawing, after the tyrant destroyed Zhao, this palace has been repaired a lot, but the overall structure has not changed much." Xu Rong had already led his troops outside the palace, and he happened to catch them off guard tonight. ”

However, Meng Tian acted carefully and did not let General Xu Rong's men enter the palace. How are we going to open the gates? ”

Long asked.

Zhao Xie smiled, pointed to the gate of the palace city, and said, "We don't need to open the city gate. Under the pretext of escorting, General Xu Rong marched in a hurry, deliberately disconnecting from the baggage troops behind. Therefore, it takes a day to arrive when there is food and grass. Tonight, the grain and grass of the 10,000-strong army need to leave the palace. So, this is the best chance. ”

Zhao Xie raised his head, looked around at the surrounding masters, and said, "Tonight, my subordinates will blend into General Xu Rong's team escorting grain and grass, and when the door is opened to get grain, they will take advantage of the situation." It only takes a moment. General Xu Rong's soldiers were able to rush into the palace. Through the chaos in the palace, the task of assassinating the tyrant fell to the heroes. ”

"In order to save the common people, it is incumbent on him to assassinate the tyrant and die and be killed." A group of masters shouted loudly, and the feeling of seeing death as home was vividly expressed.

"Zhao Xie on behalf of Zhao Guo, on behalf of the people of the Six Kingdoms, thank you!"

Zhao Xie saluted everyone.

"Childe, don't be polite." Long said.

"There is one more thing, I need to bother the dragon and general."

"Childe, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

"The stakes are high for tonight's assassination, just in case, I need the general to bring troops to the side." Zhao Xie's hand was another salute.

Long Ji paused, hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Don't give up." ”

"Thank you, General!"

Night.

Meng Tian was eating in the tent when he suddenly saw Wang Li hurriedly coming in.

The usual Wang Li is extremely polite, and he will definitely not be as reckless as he is now.

Meng Tian was not angry, but a bad premonition rose in his heart. "What's the matter?"

"Will... General, Xu Rong is the opposite! ”

"What!" Meng Tian was furious, Huo Ran stood up, kicked away the food table that was blocking him, and asked, "How is the situation now?" ”

"The rebels have taken control of a city gate. They came prepared, and our soldiers were caught off guard and suffered heavy losses. Several accompanying generals had already organized troops and horses to resist. The last general came to inform the general. ”

"Go and tell His Majesty the Emperor. In addition, with my warrant, gather the soldiers of the two families of the Mongol king. Remember, at all costs, you must guard the palace of His Majesty the Emperor. ”

"The last will obey." Wang Li took Meng Tian's token and galloped out of the tent.

In Meng Tian's heart, there was a hint of surprise. This Xu Rong was a veteran of Zhao Guo recommended by Gongzi Fusu!

However, he quickly suppressed the annoyance in his heart, walked out of the tent, and went to the front line.

The situation was worse than he had imagined. Xu Rong's raid was completely a carefully prepared conspiracy, taking advantage of the laxity of the guards in the palace, it suddenly struck, acted in an orderly manner, and was well-organized.

Meng Tian looked into the distance, and among the active and abnormal figures in the enemy's military array, there were clearly the figures of the six masters beside King Zhao back then.

In other words, Xu Rong had already colluded with the remnants of Zhao Guo beforehand, and was thinking about a deep layer of words, how much of this was the meaning of Gongzi Fusu?

Such an idea made Meng Tian shudder, but he immediately denied it. It is impossible for Gongzi Fusu to do this, if these people succeed in their rebellion, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will inherit the throne, and he will not do any good except for a heinous crime.

The main hall of the palace.

Compared with the monstrous chaos outside the palace, the palace is still breezy and the moon is cold, and it is very quiet.

At this time, the emperor was in front of the case, dealing with government affairs.

In the hearts of every Qin person, Emperor Qin is a great hero! Of course, Wang Li is no exception.

For Wang Li, the emperor in front of him is a saint who has no one in the ages. It was he who leveled the six countries, ruled the world, and ended thousands of years of turmoil. It was he who spread the glory of the Qin army all over the world, subdued the four yi, and made the name of China spread far and wide. It is he who leads the people of the empire to build a great empire that will last forever.

Being able to protect this emperor under the command of Emperor Qin is the highest honor for Wang Li.

Emperor Qin also seemed to notice Wang Li, put down the bamboo slip in his hand, and said, "It's Wang Li!" What happened? ”

"Your Majesty, Xu Rong is plotting rebellion, and he is leading the rebels to come at this moment. The last general came to tell him that for the sake of security, please move your majesty to the apse. Wang Li's voice was a little panicked.

"It's a little small, what's the fuss about. Wang Li, you take the guards around me to guard this palace! Emperor Qin said indifferently, and then, he picked up the bamboo slip again and looked at it again.

It seems that in the eyes of this emperor, those rebels who leave the palace are not as important as the government affairs in their own hands.

"Yes, the last will obey." Wang Li's voice was excited, and Emperor Qin's words made him regain his confidence.

Wang Li stood up, clenched the sword at his waist, held his chest high, and walked out.

……

The shadow of the dense forest, the mountains at this time are particularly cold and terrifying.

But compared to the ecstatic Zhao Xie, these are nothing.

Anyone standing beside him can feel the joy that pervades him.

It is no wonder that the soldiers led by Xu Rong are killing more and more bravely, and from the top of the mountain, his soldiers will soon approach the palace of Emperor Qin.

As long as Xu Rong opens the way for the masters of the rivers and lakes hidden in the army, then in Zhao Xie's opinion, the plan to assassinate Ying Zheng has been successful for most of the time, how can he be unhappy.

"Childe, big things can be expected." The guards beside Gongzi Zhao Xie congratulated, "Zhao Guo is expected to return to the country." ”

Zhao Xie smiled and didn't speak, but his expression betrayed him.

"Zhao has a descendant like you, do you still expect to return to the country?"

A faint voice came, filling the woods, making it impossible to tell where the source of the sound was.

"Who?" The guards around Zhao Xie surrounded him in the middle, looking around vigilantly.

Zhao Gao's figure was like a ghost, and soon appeared in front of everyone.

"Are you a human or a ghost?" Zhao Xie asked.

Dressed in a black and red robe, with cold eyes and a pale face, in this dark night ancient forest, it is difficult not to wonder if the person in front of him is a person.

"Don't worry, I'm not a ghost." Zhao Gao sighed lightly, as if he was a little disappointed.

"What are you pretending to be a ghost for?" Zhao Xie shouted loudly, emboldening himself.

"Kill you!"

As soon as Zhao Gao's words fell, his figure disappeared in place like a ghost.

Under the moonlight, the figure flashed a few times, and the guards beside Zhao Xie all fell to the ground.

On the top of the empty cliff, only Zhao Xie and Zhao Gao were left.

Such a terrifying skill made Zhao Xie's face pale, and the joy just now disappeared without a trace.

"If you want to kill me, why don't you let go?" Zhao Xie said boldly, with the other party's skills, he has absolutely no power to resist.

"After all, you and I are of the same race, and before I want to kill you, I naturally want you to die. Lest under the Nine Springs, the ancestors of the Zhao Kingdom ask about it, and you are so unclear. Zhao Gao's face was filled with a hint of regret that should not belong to him.

"What! Since you are also a descendant of the Zhao Kingdom, why did you kill me? With your skills, if you join the assassination team, you will be able to succeed. Zhao Xie stretched out an olive branch, wanting to draw it to his side.

"Joke, I'm by Emperor Qin's side, holding the position of CRRC Commander. If you want to assassinate Yingzheng, there are more opportunities than you. Zhao Gao sneered disdainfully.

"You're Zhao Gao!" Zhao Xie finally understood the identity of the person in front of him at this time.

Zhao Gao ignored it, "Let's not say that Ying Zheng is surrounded by masters like clouds and has strict precautions, I don't have this kind of opportunity at all." Even if I can succeed, what good will it do to my Zhao Kingdom? ”

"No, this time is different. Ying Zheng is on the eastern tour, and there are always omissions in defense. I pretended to take refuge in Gongzi Fusu before, and used his connections to plant a lot of reinforcements in the empire. As long as you are willing to help me, the tyrant of Yingzheng will definitely die this time. Zhao Xie's eyes were fanatical, and he said.

"You still don't understand!" Zhao Gao sighed slightly, "You know that Yingzheng gave me an order before you started, what is it?" Capture Zhao Xie, the rebellious leader of Zhao Di! ”

"What!" Zhao Xie said incredulously.

"Yes! In other words, before you do it, Yingzheng has already been fully deployed. And you're just a puppet at his mercy. Zhao Gao quietly came to Zhao Xie's back and wrapped his arms around his neck.

"No, we still have a chance, as long as you're willing to help me!" Feeling that death was imminent, Zhao Xie hurriedly begged for mercy.

"Yingzheng has never given you and me any chance." A tear was left on Zhao Gao's face, and he said bitterly: "Because of your stupidity, Yingzheng will have a reason to carry out an unprecedented purge of Zhao Di." The foundation of the Zhao State is not there, and all I can do is to kill you, so as not to disgrace the ancestors of the Zhao State in front of the Qin army. (To be continued.) )
