Chapter 354: Uprisings are all over the Great Qin Domain
"What! It's all reversed?! ”
Ziying, who was eating, drinking, and having fun in the wine pond meat forest, still knew everything, after all, the rebel teams from all over the country had already occupied most of the empire, and there were two teams with the greatest momentum.
These two teams are the old Chu army led by Xiang Yu, and the other is the mountain bandits and thieves led by Liu Bang.
Don't look at Liu Bang as a ragtag army, but his skills in controlling people are really good, and under his command, this ragtag army has become a powerful existence among many rebel armies.
Ziying hurriedly put on the dragon robe and came to the main hall with a solemn expression. In the past two years, he has been indulging in wine all day long, his sturdy figure has long been out of shape, the former young man has become a greasy uncle, and his strength has also decreased a lot.
"The rebel armies from all over the country have hit Xianyang City, why don't you report to me quickly?" Ziying looked at the silent courtiers under his knees.
"Your Majesty, where is the minister who waits not to report, but dare not report it, those who report bad news are all killed."
An old minister said that he didn't have much time anyway, and he admitted that he was killed at the risk of death.
Looking at the group of ministers who bowed their heads and were silent, with fearful faces, the cloudy and uncertain Ziying said: "A group of waste, I have a dog and know how to guard the door?" I have raised you bunch of wine bags and rice bags, and the rebels have all hit your doorstep, and you still don't take measures, do you want to watch the iron hooves of the rebels step over you? ”
At this time, Ziying has not yet discovered his own problems, where is their problem, but he himself has blocked the way of speech.
No one dares to tell the truth, only to say some nice words to prevaricate him, and over time, the courtiers will flatter and slap the horse, and the empire will cease to exist.
And Ziying also tasted the bitter fruit, which is the end of him ignoring the government and indulging in wine all day long.
"Your Majesty, the immediate urgency is not who is responsible for pursuing us, but how to control the enemy is the first thing."
"Yes, yes, this matter will be settled with you after the rebellion is quelled, and if you have made a contribution to quelling the rebellion, I may be able to forgive your sins when I am in a good mood." Ziying said.
He is used to being alone, and he is extremely distrustful of others, which has caused him to know how to control people.
At this critical moment, Ziying said some threatening words, which inevitably chilled people's hearts, although their hearts were already cold, but they still hoped that Ziying could repent.
Obviously, they were wrong, very wrong.
"Tell me, who can put down the rebellion?"
Ziying looked at the ministers below, his eyes swept over them, his eyes were a little majestic, he was not angry, and no one dared to look at him.
His subordinates are all a group of wine bags and rice bags, if you want to talk about conspiracy and trickery, they are good at playing with power, but if you want to lead troops to fight, a group of literati who are powerless and afraid of even killing chickens are afraid that they will be cut down by the enemy in less than a round after going into battle.
After Ziying finished speaking, no one answered, which was embarrassing.
"In the dignified empire, doesn't there even have a person who can lead troops to fight?" Ziying shouted.
He could lead troops to fight, but as an emperor, how could he do such a reckless thing? I am the Ninety-Five, how did I touch which weapons?! This is simply a blasphemy against oneself.
Everyone was silent, not because they didn't speak, but because they really couldn't think of anyone they could use.
Catching ducks on the shelves also depends on the score, and it is impossible to lead troops to fight without experience.
Commanding tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, where is it just talking, but having enough courage and command ability, and there are really few people who can do this, looking at the court.
Just when Ziying thought that there was no one, a general came forward at this time, and he saluted: "Back to Your Majesty." Chancellor is willing to give it a try. ”
The appearance of this person broke the deadlock, and everyone turned their eyes on him, and Ziying was also a little surprised.
If he hadn't taken the initiative to stand up, he would have almost forgotten that there was such a person in the empire.
"Zhang Han!!"
This person is Zhang Han, the personal guard who protected Gongzi Fusu in the past, and later Fusu lost power, Zhang Han was snubbed by the empire, and Ziying did not kill him as soon as he ascended the throne, not because he didn't want to kill, but because he forgot about this person completely.
If it was a normal time, Ziying might really kill him, but now is the time to employ people, and it seems that no one else can take on this important task except him.
However, Ziying is suspicious by nature, so naturally he will not fully trust him, after all, Zhang Han is a person who supports Su, so in order to prevent him from defecting to the enemy army, it is impossible for Ziying to hand over the regular army of Daqin into his hands.
It was necessary to think of a way to prevent him and not to hand over the main forces to him.
Ziying didn't rush to agree to him, but asked, "Zhang Han, you took the initiative to ask Ying, but what is the best way to quell the rebellion?" ”
Zhang Han said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Miao Ce doesn't have it, but the minister is confident that he will defeat the rebels." ”
He didn't promise to go to Haikou, he knew that even if he said that the sky was falling, Ziying would not return to me and believe in himself, and this little self-knowledge was still there.
"It's a bit whimsical that you don't even have a strategy and want me to put the army in your hands with peace of mind." Ziying said.
Zhang Han was silent, he had already guessed this kind of result, something to be expected.
Seeing that he was silent, Ziying was a little embarrassed, at the moment he really couldn't find anyone else, this Zhang Han had held an important position in the army, and he was still relatively proficient in marching and fighting.
But how can he prevent a rebellion?
After thinking about it for a while, Ziying gave birth to a plan in his heart, and said: "Okay, I will give you 70,000 troops, if you really have the ability to quell the rebellion, I will give you another 100,000, if you are only talking about it, then you should come and see you." ”
Zhang Han was stunned, would Ziying put 70,000 troops into his hands so easily? He expressed skepticism.
Not to mention Zhang Han, others also said that when Ziying became so easy to speak, the army was the last guarantee in his hands, where would he hand it over easily?!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!!"
Be thankful despite the skepticism.
Ziying said: "It will take some time to gather 70,000 troops, please wait for a few days for General Zhang Han." ”
"Ready?"
The ready-made army still needs to be gathered, and Zhang Han has a faint bad feeling in his heart, not only for him, but also for others.
Ziying is so generous, it is really the first time in the world.
"But the rebels will arrive in Xianyang in just a few days, and the sooner they send troops to suppress it, the better chance of victory."
"It's okay, I believe in General Zhang Han's strength." Ziying said with a smile.
"Okay."
Although Zhang Han was also very helpless, he had no choice but to let him go, but there was something faintly bad in his heart.
……
A few days later.
Ziying really gathered 70,000 troops, but it was just ......
The 70,000 people he gathered were not regular soldiers, to be precise, they couldn't even be called soldiers, because the men and horses he gathered were prisoners in the prisons of the Qin State and people who were serving forced labor.
They were summoned, and if they were able to win the battle, they were relieved of their sins and of servitude.
Under such conditions, 70,000 people were barely gathered.
When Zhang Han saw that this group of soldiers was not soldiers, it was an army of people and non-people, and he seemed to have 10,000 grass and mud horses galloping wildly in his heart.
He wanted to charge for Ziying, but Ziying didn't trust him at all, not only did he not trust. Instead, they used prisoners and people to fool themselves.
If Zhang Han had been furious before, he would have left angrily, but he promised the First Emperor that even if he died in battle, he would guard the land of Great Qin from being violated.
It was a promise between him and the First Emperor, and a trust between men and men, and the promise that could be made despite the death of the First Emperor must be fulfilled.
It's just that in Ziying's opinion, Zhang Han has other plans, but it is also, Zhang Han is a person who helps Su, and everyone will think so, and Zhang Han is not surprised.
"Your Majesty, these 70,000 troops ...... Is it also ......?"
Some people really can't stand it, and can't help but feel sorry for Zhang Han, when is it, Ziying still cherishes the power in his hands, and the urgency to let go is to clear the rebellion, how can a group of people and prisoners defeat the rebels.
However, Ziying disagreed, and said: "Only in this way can we show General Zhang Han's military talent, and if I can defeat the rebels with these things, I can rest assured that the military power will be in his hands, isn't it?" ”
Ziying's words made everyone else have nothing to say, and if you think about it carefully, it does make some sense, but after thinking about it, many people are still upset about Zhang Han.
And Zhang Han said: "Please let go of Your Majesty, and the ministers should go all out to clear the rebels and keep the territory of Great Qin from being invaded by foreign thieves." ”
"Okay, well, General Zhang Han has this determination, I am very pleased, since this is the case, then you can send troops, the rebel army should be sooner rather than later." Ziying said.
Listening to the meaning of his words, it seemed that he was looking forward to Zhang Han's death, but he didn't realize that once Zhang Han died, there would really be no one available in the empire.
Ziying never trusted others, and in his eyes, everyone was unusable.
And the reason why he is so conceited is that he only believes in himself, and as long as he is alive, he can turn the tide.
Zhang Liang saw Ziying's point, and he was sure that Ziying would definitely be defeated.
No matter how strong a person's strength is, after all, he can't withstand the power of everyone, two fists are hard to beat four hands, he doesn't understand the cooperation, he doesn't understand the trust, this kind of person can't live long.
"Obey!!"
After Zhang Han should go down, it is to officially rectify the army, and this group of loose people can easily be used as cannon fodder when they arrive at the scene.
Since Ziying can't believe himself, then he will prove it to him.
……
At the same time, Liu Bang's army arrived in Hanzhong first, and in a short time, it was already impassable in Xianyangwei.
Hao Jian, who has restored his original name, not to mention that he really has the appearance of an emperor, but he still shouldn't look like a ruffian.
Zhang Han stood on the city gate, saw that the rebels had arrived, and said: "Open the city gate and face the battle!" ”
