Chapter 499: Hu Hai's Crisis
The birth of the child made Li Chen ecstatic, but the birth of the same child also reminded Li Chen that he was no longer a passer-by in this world. Li Chen knew very well in his heart that if Daqin fell into the hands of Hu Hai, what would become of everything he had worked so hard to manage.
"I will sweep away the darkness and gloom." Li Chen secretly made up his mind in his heart.
Even with the birth of a child, Li Chen only accompanied Yingyue for one night. Xianyang's crisis is imminent, Hu Hai is a mad dog, and no one knows what kind of things he will do when he is angry.
It was dawn, and Li Chen gently wanted to pull out the hand that was being held by Ying Yue.
"Are you awake?" Looking at each other, Li Chen asked softly.
"Well, are you going back to Xianyang?" Ying Yue asked, her voice still a little weak.
"Yes, I'll be back in a few days to pick you up and take you into town." Li Chen got up and said proudly.
"You ......"
"Be careful." Ying Yue hesitated for a moment, but she didn't know what to say.
After having a child, Ying Yue's mind seems to be more sensitive. She is not a heroine galloping on the battlefield, just a wife who wants to reunite with her family.
"Rest assured, rest assured." Li Chen said with relief.
Since learning of Hu Hai's rebellion, Li Chen's heart seems to be shrouded in a layer of haze. This is the case in the history of the previous life, the first emperor died inexplicably, and then Hu Hai sent Fusu back to the West with a cup of poisonous wine, all of which were brutally killed by all his brothers and sisters.
The wheels of history are rolling, the small trend can be changed, and the big trend is irreversible, Li Chen doesn't know whether Hu Hai's behavior is a big trend or a small trend. In the future, the history of Great Qin will return to the previous life, or write a new history.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa."
At the moment when Li Chen stepped out of the temple gate, three crisp cries sounded. A long-lost smile leaked from Li Chen's face, as if the gloom in his heart had been shattered.
At this moment, he firmly believes that man will conquer the sky.
"Point troops, send troops to Xianyang, and crusade against rebellion." Li Chen's eyes were cold, and he said in a cold tone.
At this time, Li Chen had already sentenced Hu Hai to death in his heart. In any case, once Xianyang is taken, then no matter what, Li Chen will not give Hu Hai any life. Only an enemy who is completely dead is a good enemy.
Li Chen's subordinates are all cavalry, and after a night of repair, the soldiers are also full of energy, and everyone is holding back from the bottom of their hearts, and now they are like wolf cubs screaming, full of energy to the extreme.
In about an hour, the army under Li Chen's command had been prepared. Even the 3,000 soldiers who Liu Bang brought out of the city, everyone returned to Xianyang together. Li Chen led the army all the way along the newly built avenue towards Xianyang, and did not hide or shy away from Hu Hai's spies along the way.
Li Chen just wanted to tell Hu Hai generously, I, Li Chen, am here, wash my neck and wait.
The news that Li Chen had led a large army back to Xianyang quickly spread to the city, which made Hu Hai in the city panic. Although in terms of troops, Hu Hai's strength is half a pound and eight taels of Li Chen's current strength, and he is not angry. Moreover, after Feng Zheng's training, his soldiers can barely be regarded as well-trained elite soldiers.
However, compared with well-trained elite soldiers and veterans of many battles, there is more than one level of difference between the two. Whether it is in terms of the quality of the soldiers or the weapons and equipment, the army under Li Chen's command and Hu Hai's army are not at the same level, if they go out of the city to fight, Li Chen is sure that he will completely defeat Hu Hai within one day.
Of course, war is not only so simple, the right time and place are indispensable. In this battle, there is no interest in both sides, Li Chen occupies the people, and Hu Hai occupies the advantage. Although the soldiers under Li Chen's command were elite, they were all cavalry, and they did not carry siege weapons during the long journey. Although the soldiers under Hu Hai's command were far inferior to Li Chen, they had the advantage of Xianyang City.
In Xianyang City, Hu Hai was naturally very nervous when he heard the news of Li Chen's return. Li Chen came too fast, and this speed was far beyond their expectations. In desperation, Hu Hai could only hurry up to arrange the defense of Xianyang City, and ordered his generals to defend it strictly.
"Father, how did Li Chen come back so quickly, this was completely unexpected by us. Now Fusu is still in the city, and the internal troubles in the city have not been resolved, and this external trouble has come. This should be, how is it good. Hearing that Li Chen was coming, Hu Hai was completely panicked, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
The speed of Li Chen's return was twice as fast as Zhao Gao expected. This made Zhao Gao's whole plan completely messed up, originally in his plan they had enough time to capture Fusu alive, win the moon to threaten Li Chen, and even take the palace before Li Chen returned to help. And now, Li Chen's sudden return has completely messed up their plans.
Zhao Gao pondered for a moment and said, "Although the speed of Li Chen's return was beyond our expectations, according to the spies' returns, they were all cavalry, and they didn't carry any siege equipment. Even if they come to the city to make it temporarily, they can only make simple equipment such as ladders, as long as we stick to the city, they won't be able to attack it for a while. ”
Hearing Zhao Gao's words, Hu Hai's mood did not relax for a moment, only to hear a basin of cold water poured down by Feng Zai.
"Zhao Gong, don't forget, Fusu is still in the city. And at this time, there are still about 5,000 soldiers and horses under his command, if he takes advantage of the strong attack outside the city, Fusu leads the troops to suddenly seize the city, I am afraid that this Xianyang City may also miss. Feng Zheng said in a cold voice.
"Father, General Feng is right, Fusu is like a knife hanging around my neck, if I don't get rid of Hu Hai for a day, my heart will not be stable for a day." Hu Hai said worriedly.
"The remnants of the soldiers and horses in this city are quite complicated, and no one can mobilize them except Fusu. If you want to ensure the safety of Xianyang, you must not let Fusu stay in the city. Feng Zheng said.
"Childe, do you have to kill Fusu?" Zhao Gao asked with a serious face.
Hu Hai gritted his teeth and replied, "You have to kill." ”
"What if you want to be infamous through the ages?" Zhao Gao asked solemnly.
"Father, what you and I are doing now is that we can't wash it even if we jump into the Yellow River. If you can sit in that position, it will be infamous for the ages. Hu Hai said firmly.
"In that case, I'll arrange the matter."
"Chen Sheng, you can handle this matter." Zhao Gao said, called Chen Sheng to his side, and whispered softly.
"Order, Zhao Gong rest assured, I will definitely do it properly at this time." Chen Sheng gave up his order and left.
"Zhao Gong, do you really want to do this?" Feng Zai asked.
Obviously, Feng Zheng was also clear about what Zhao Gao had ordered Chen Sheng to do just now.
"Time does not wait for me, only in this way can Fusu be forced out." Zhao Gao said lightly.
