Qin Palace.

In the Xianyang Palace, the important ministers discussed the court, and officials from all over the country submitted the invitations one after another, except for the daily discussions, which were basically the same as usual.

However, no one mentioned the rebellion of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, to be precise, they never knew that such a thing had happened.

After the ministers finished their invitations, the First Emperor's eyes were blazing, he glanced at the ministers, his eyes swept over them, and suddenly, the atmosphere fell into a dead silence.

Everyone didn't know why His Majesty was silent, and why he stared at them so deadly, could it be that they had just said something wrong?!

At this time, the First Emperor suddenly asked, "Don't you have anything else to tell me?" ”

When asked about this, everyone was stunned, other things? Haven't they all been presented in the morning recital, everything they want to say is in it, what else do they have to say?!

Everyone bowed their heads and said nothing, all looking at each other, I don't know what the meaning of His Majesty's words is?

Just as they were thinking, they heard the First Emperor say, "Meng Yi, tell you what happened?" ”

"Whoa!"

Meng Yi moved a step sideways, then walked to the central position, saluted first, and then said: "Recently, I received a secret report that there was a rebellion in Xingyang, Jiujiang, Suiyang and other places, led by Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, who gathered people from all over the country and rebelled, and now they have occupied several counties of the empire. ”

"Among them, the land of Xingyang, I won't say it, and you adults also understand the importance of this place."

Wow--!!

After hearing this, there was an uproar at the scene, and everyone was shocked and shocked, they didn't even hear any news about such a big event, and it was a big event like a rebellion.

"Your Majesty, when such a big event happened, why didn't the court hear a single rumor?" Right Prime Minister Feng Qujian asked, and his words also expressed the doubts in the hearts of many people.

If it was really a rebellion, there was already news from Xingyang, and it was impossible for the imperial court not to understand the situation, or in other words, the news was wrong, and the rebellion of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang was simply a fictitious thing.

"Because they blocked the news and suppressed all the uprisings and rebellions, I sent several waves of spies, but no one returned, and then I sent people to infiltrate Xingyang to know that this place had already been occupied by the rebels." The First Emperor explained.

They also understood.

Ancient times were not as advanced as modern times, with advanced communication technology, and at that time, the news was blocked, and it was very simple to block the bad news.

"Xingyang is the granary of the world, and now it is occupied by the rebels, isn't it dangerous." Feng Qujian said.

"Feng Xiang's worries are not necessary, because the food problem has been resolved, and now we have to consider the matter of counterinsurgency." The First Emperor said.

As soon as these words came out, countless pairs of eyes immediately attracted to look at Meng Yi, and the food problem was solved? !

It's impossible! Not to mention their food problem, just counting the grain and grass of the levy army, the grain and grass of the 200,000 army is definitely not a small amount.

Now the Xingyang granary is controlled by people, and there is a shortage of grain and grass in the local government warehouses, and even if you want to buy it, you can't sell it.

Even if the Meng family is the richest man in the empire, so what?! If you have money, you can't sell it, even if Meng Yi has the ability, he can still conjure it out of thin air, and he is not a god.

Everyone stared at each other, as if to say, how can it be solved?! Unless Meng Yi is really a god, obviously, the answer is no.

The First Emperor signaled everyone to be quiet, and after everyone was silent, he said: "Don't wait for worry, the yield of rice planted by Meng Yi on the mountain can reach 80 stone per mu, which is enough to solve the problem of grain and grass for the army within half a year." ”

Wow!!

There was another boiling noise, and the yield per mu was eighty stones?! Is this too good to blow? Is this how cowhide is blown into the sky?

At this moment, someone finally stood up and said sharply: "This is absolutely impossible, the yield per mu in a good year is only twenty stones, even in the year of Xingyang Ruixue, the yield per mu is only thirty stones." Eighty per mu? It's a ridiculous thing in the world. ”

This person is in charge of the storage of grain, gold and jade, and his official position is to govern the internal history of corn, and he knows very well what the grain is doing in the world, and even the grain output in each place can be as good as a treasure.

And it's not to say that I don't believe in the internal history of Zhisu, but anyone with a little common sense will not believe it.

The picture of everyone's questioning is familiar, especially when the first emperor sees it, it is exactly the same as his original self, and in the end, he still chooses to believe in Meng Yi.

With his understanding of Meng Yi, if Meng Yi hadn't been completely sure, otherwise, he wouldn't have said such a thing.

Of course, believing is believing, but whether the reality is really like this, he still has no way to know, but as Meng Yi said, only when the harvest comes, can it be seen.

At this time, Meng Yi stretched out five fingers and said, "In five days, if you don't believe it, you can go to the mountain and watch for yourself." ”

"If I can't solve the problem of food and grass for the army to travel, naturally apologize, as for whether I have over-boasted, I will judge for myself at that time, for now, you should not discuss the strategy of the thief, instead of questioning whether I am lying?" Meng Yi said.

There are priorities, and unconsciously, they seem to have deviated from the direction, and the immediate urgency is to quell the rebellion, not to question Meng Yi.

Even if he can't do it, he will take responsibility when the time comes, and there is no need for others to worry about it.

"Mengxiang's words are reasonable, and it is the best policy to think of counterinsurgency tactics at the moment." Feng Qujian said.

"But now that General Meng is gone, it is difficult for the empire to have a general who can bear the heavy responsibility, and who should the imperial court appoint to be in charge?" Someone said.

At the mention of Meng Tian, Meng Yi's body was stunned, he was particularly sensitive to these two words, every time he mentioned it, his heart would beat suddenly, and an invisible anger would rise.

But he was still suppressed by Meng Yi, and this anger should not be released here, but to kill the people of the Xiao organization.

If there was still a trace of kindness in the past Meng Yi, now Meng Yi has already abandoned this kindness, as long as he meets the people of the Xiao Organization, Meng Yi will cut them mercilessly, regardless of whether they have been wronged or not.

The current Meng Yi is like a madness, biting the enemy and not letting go, even if he is killed, he will never let go.

Feng Quji said: "Your Majesty, the old minister recommended Meng Yi, and they all said that the generals and tigers, whether it is the old general Meng Fu or the great general Meng Tian, are all hot-blooded men of the empire, fighting on the battlefield for the empire and killing countless enemies. The minister thought that Meng Xiang's military talent would not be much inferior to General Meng Tian. ”

Previously, the battle between Qin and the Xiongnu was enough to prove Meng Yi's military talent, and the Macedonian formation he invented broke the Xiongnu's cavalry and played a key role in reversing the victory of the empire.

Feng Quji's words entered the heart of the First Emperor, long before, the First Emperor and Meng Yi had already had a secret discussion, and they also agreed that Meng Yi would personally take command of the discussion.

Both of them knew about it, and now they brought it to the court again, and their purpose was nothing more than two, one was to see if the courtiers really had a strategy to deal with the enemy; The second is to know who opposes Meng Yi and who supports him.

Everyone knows Meng Yi's military talent, in the first battle of the Huns, it can be said that the world was shocked, but I didn't expect that the Great Qin Empire would have another young general, which is really amazing.

If he is the one who comes out, the rebels will naturally not be a problem.

And to take down the rebellious people, naturally he does not want Meng Yi to go on the expedition, therefore, through this incident, at least let the First Emperor see some of the situation clearly, it is impossible to deny it completely, and the rebels hidden in the court can also be locked in a general range.

Therefore, Meng Yi and the First Emperor sang a double reed above the court.

Sure enough, as they expected, there are voices of support and opposition in the DPRK and China, and among the opponents, there are several people who insist on disagreeing with Meng Yi taking command, at least Yingzheng basically has a scope of investigation, no longer looking for a needle in a haystack as before, without any targeting.

……

In the end, the First Emperor made a ruling, saying: "More than half of the ministers in the court agreed that Meng Yi would be in charge, and it was difficult to disobey the will of the ministers, so I decided that Meng Yi would send troops to fight against the rebels of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang." ”

After he gave the order, Ying Zheng said again: "Meng Yi stepped forward to listen to the order. ”

"Obey the order."

"From now on, I will make you the generalissimo of Pingdong, lead an army of 200,000, and vow to recapture the lost counties of the empire." The First Emperor said.

"Whoa! The minister should live up to expectations. ”

"Very good, but the ugly words I also have to talk about the front, if you can't put down the rebellion, don't come back, just sacrifice your life for the country." The First Emperor said.

"There is no need for Your Majesty to say more, if you really can't quell the rebellion, even if you don't say it, the minister will not have the face to come back alive." Meng Yi said solemnly.

"Do you dare to make a military order?"

"Why don't you dare?"

"Okay, if you are defeated, I will not only kill you, but also punish your nine clans."

It is no wonder that the First Emperor made such a vicious military order, he hated those betrayers the most, and he said that he was for the people of the world, but in fact it was his own selfish desires, and the world fell into the flames of poisonous war.

Meng Yi is also bloody, he took the pen, signed the military order, cut his fingers with a knife, and pressed his fingerprints on it.

……

After retiring from the court, Meng Yi returned to the mansion to prepare for the Eastern Expedition, and the imperial court was also preparing for this matter.

On the other side, the disappearance soon spread to Xingyang, and Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were also very nervous when they learned that the imperial court was going to crusade against them, and ordered everyone to enter a battle state.

Everything is as it seems, but secretly there is a surge inside.

……

Five days later, Meng Yi's appointed time came, and on this day, many people in Xianyang City gathered on the West Mountain, because the rice planted by the Meng family was ripe, and they came to see if it was really as Meng Yi boasted.

Early in the morning, the mountain is crowded with people, so it is not lively.

At this time, I heard someone shouting: "The people of the Meng family are here, look and see." ”
