Surabaya-gun, Daze Township......

After a month of torrential rains, Surabaya has long become a land of waterlogging.

Daze Township is located dozens of miles away from Qi County, and Xue County, is the west of the Great River, the southern Xinjiang counties of the empire go north to Yuyang, must pass through. Thousands of miles of galloping road, traversing the north and south, like a long dragon.

Every year, the empire would conscripted to go to the frontier to defend the frontier, adapt to the geographical environment of the front, receive training, and develop fighting skills.

Their soldiers are not regular troops, but they have adapted to the battlefield in advance, and once the situation changes, the empire will recruit troops, and they will immediately go to the battlefield without the need for training.

Due to the heavy rain, many places were flooded, and their journey was slow, and there were still nearly 2,000 miles to Yuyang.

Ten days have passed since the 40-day deadline given by the imperial court, but they are still wandering in Surabaya, unable to move forward.

Although Daze Township is close to the road, the road ahead is muddy and potholes, and many places are blocked by floods.

This team of 50 people in Qi County is trapped in Daze Township and is at a loss.

Chen Sheng is a native of Qi County, Surabaya, and his family has been poor since he was a child, and he makes a living by helping the gentry plough the fields.

Because of the suffering of class oppression, he knows that it is difficult for him to come out of his humble background.

Although now that the new policy of the imperial court has been issued, he also has his own farmland, but his heart is not satisfied with this.

In Chen Sheng's view, he was also born as a human being, why should others be born with fine clothes and food, calling for wind and rain?

I am also a human being, why do I have to work day and night, plowing the fields and working, and my ancestors have been nested in the loess for generations?

However, the current situation is also, Daqin is like the sky, what can he do?

With the increasing number of soldiers coming from all over the country in the past few days, there have been thousands of soldiers encamped in Daze Township.

"Brother Chen, what are you thinking?"

Chen Sheng, who was originally pondering, was suddenly interrupted from his thoughts.

Looking at several tun chiefs from all over the camp in the camp, Chen Sheng smiled and said, "Brother Wu Guang, I'm just thinking that if the heavy rain keeps stopping, if I wait too long, I am afraid that I will be punished." ”

Hearing Chen Sheng's words, the others all fell silent, their faces solemn.

According to the law of Great Qin, although the bad weather has been postponed for ten days, looking at this ghost weather, I am afraid that I will definitely not be able to catch up with Yuyang on the 50th.

Within 20 days of overdue, a fine of shield, and a fine within 30 days of overdue, this is just a ruin of wealth and disaster.

Nowadays, a wooden shield on the market in Daqin is only a hundred yuan, and a pair of leather armor is a thousand yuan.

Smashing pots and selling iron, they can still afford to pay for these.

If it is not extended for 30 days, it will be punished as a crime of dereliction of duty.

The soldiers are not guilty, and these commanders are all guilty of dereliction of duty.

The light sentence is three years of hard labor for the construction and repair of the city wall, and the heavy punishment is to be punished with death and exile to Lingnan.

When it comes to asking for sin, everyone has no change of color.

The atmosphere was relatively silent, no one spoke again, and one looked worried and anxious.

"Have you heard?"

He from Jiujiang is mysterious.

“？？？？”

Chen Sheng, Wu Guang and the two foreign commanders all looked confused.

"What?"

Several people spoke in unison.

"I heard that His Majesty has died?"

He He whispered, his face full of caution.

“……”

A few people looked at He with idiots on their faces, and thought what was the matter.

"Isn't that everyone knowing? The whole country mourns together, can't I just retire from the mourning clothes? ”

Wu Guang rolled his eyes angrily and said.

"I haven't finished talking yet, what is Brother Wu Guang anxious about?"

He He was also speechless.

"What do you mean?"

Chen Sheng said.

"I heard that the eldest son Fusu was dissatisfied with Gongzi Yu as the second emperor, so he ascended to the heights and shouted, gathered millions of garrisons from all over the country, gathered in Xianyang, and wanted to force the palace and claim the emperor with self-esteem."

He He kept his voice low, and said in a voice that only a few people could hear.

"Huh?"

Chen Sheng was a little surprised in his heart, he had also heard about this, but he didn't know such details, and the three thousand city defense troops in Qi County had also left.

This is what he saw with his own eyes, and he was still very puzzled at the time, and then rumors came out from time to time.

"It's a secret, isn't it known to the whole world?"

Tong Zheman, another tun chief, didn't care and booed.

"What is known to the whole world? My brother served as a hundred generals in the Jiujiang County City Defense Army, so he learned that ordinary people can know? ”

He He looked like his self-esteem had been hit, his face was flushed, and he was a little anxious.

In this turbulent and brilliant era, respect is more important than finances and more important than life.

If you don't agree with each other, you draw your sword and fight for your life, and there are many people.

Otherwise, why would the Great Qin Empire have tens of thousands of prisoners every year?

"Isn't Baijiang amazing? It's a fart, my father is still the five hundred lord of the Cangwu County City Defense Army! When I left home, my father had been urgently requisitioned to defend Guilin. ”

Tong Zhe didn't care, and looked arrogant.

"What's wrong with Guilin? What happened to the Five Hundred Lords? My brother is still young, why can't he make contributions to the promotion of the five hundred lords in the future? Even two or five hundred lords are possible. ”

He He was very unconvinced, but the matter had come to this point, and he must not admit it.

Chen Sheng, Wu Guang and another tun chief, looking at the two of them arguing with interest, did not mean to persuade each other.

"You know, when did you hear about it? I heard my father say that there have been changes in the land of Baiyue, and the generals Meng Tian and Meng Yi have been killed in Xianyang because of their eldest son Fusu, and they have raised their banners to rebel and become kings. ”

"My father was ordered to defend the junction of Guilin, just to prevent the rebels of Baiyue from going north."

Tongzhe is like a proud rooster, looking at the dumb and speechless by himself, like a lost dog, and his heart is extremely happy.

At this moment, Qu Zhi, another tun chief who had not spoken, said: "What the two brothers said is true? ”

"What is the relationship between the five of us? Although they have only known each other for less than ten days, they have the friendship of comrades, and they are sworn brothers. ”

Tongzhe is very bold, giving people a look of righteousness.

Although He He did not speak, he also nodded solemnly.

"Brother Chen, if the wind is surging today, it is the time for heroes to emerge!"

Qu Zhi said meaningfully to Chen Sheng.

"Brother Qu Zhi, what do you mean?"

Chen Sheng asked knowingly, pretending to be stupid.

"Although the younger brother and the eldest brother hated to see each other late, they were like old friends at first sight, and the younger brother saw the eldest brother for the first time, and saw that the eldest brother had the aura of a tiger standing on the dragon plate, and the image of the golden dragon gathering the sun."

"The general trend of the world, together for a long time, must be divided, and for a long time, it must be united. The Qin people are brutal and unkind, and they have always taken pleasure in poisoning the people of our six countries. When the world gathers at this time, if a seven-foot man has no lofty ambitions, will he not live up to the righteous path of this world? ”

Qu Zhi always looks polite, everyone knows that he was born in the declining aristocratic Qu family of the Chu State, and the rest is not very clear.

"Brother Qu Zhi, you must not talk nonsense in the future! This is a monstrous disaster, a crime of extermination! ”

Chen Sheng looked bitter and said to Qu Zhi.

"Big brother, the world is ignorant and ignorant, and the birds know the ambition of the birds? All of you here are brothers, so when you rush to Yuyang and be punished, it is better to do two things endlessly, on the contrary, there is no way, and I can't say that a few of our brothers can also break out of the sky. ”

Qu Zhi's voice was full of bewilderment, as if it was an infinite magic sound.

Chen Sheng really wanted to shout when he heard it, brother, bosom friend!

But this kind of thing, just think about it in your heart, now that Great Qin is suddenly rising, Chen Sheng always feels that such a reckless rebellion is tantamount to suicide.

"Brother Qu Zhi, how can you be so confused? If this word comes out, don't say it's you, more than a thousand brothers in Daze Township will be connected! ”

"Don't talk nonsense again, otherwise the eldest brother will be angry."

Chen Sheng was extremely cautious and directly rejected Qu Zhi's proposal.

Although he is very good, he is not an idiot, unless Daqin reaches the time when the real country is overturned, he will never dare to think of this idea.
