Chapter 228: The Mercenary Corps at the End of Qin (Fourth Update)

March of the sixth year of Emperor Daqin II.

Tian Rong, who proclaimed himself the king of Qi, openly erected a banner against Chu. began to look for helpers and allies among the powerful people of various countries who were dissatisfied with Xiang Yu.

As Emperor Yi's paper on Xiang Xiang spread all over the world, Tian Rong became more and more uneasy. He knew that Xiang Yu, a ferocious beast, was about to recover.

And he bore the brunt of it!

Even with Chen Yu and Zhao Guo, Tian Rong was still uneasy, and the pride of sweeping the land of Sanqi and proclaiming himself the king of Qi could not calm him down.

The reputation of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, is too loud, and it is the prestige established by one war after another since Huiji raised his army. At this moment, the Qi State is still too weak to contend with at all.

In desperation, Qi Wang Tianrong had to speed up his search for allies. Because he knows that alliances between countries are sometimes as fragile as a piece of paper.

Once Xiang Yu's army is killed, Chen Yu and Zhao Wangxie will immediately turn against each other. Just in case, Tian Rong had to pull more allies to increase his momentum.

……

"Brother Wang, Emperor Yi issued a document to discuss Xiang Yu, and Xiang Yu is about to send troops." A trace of worry flashed in Tian Rong's eyes: "At present, the strength of Qi State is insufficient, except for Chen Yu and Zhao State, who do you think can be allied?" ”

Tian Rong thought about it seriously: "Your Majesty, my brother thinks Peng Yue is feasible!" ”

"Peng Yue?"

Hearing this, Tian Rong fell silent for a moment, and he heard something about Peng Yue: "Brother Wang, Peng Yue has a lot of relationship with the King of Liaodong, is it really available?" ”

The corners of Tian Heng's mouth twitched: "Your Majesty, at the moment, I have no choice in the Qi Kingdom!" ”

"Hmm!"

Nodding, Tian Rong walked back and forth on the main hall, and after a long time, he stopped in vain: "Brother Wang, this matter will be handed over to you!" ”

"Yui!" Nodding in response, Tian Heng turned around and strode away.

Tian Heng had to be anxious, and he was clear about Qidi's situation. He knew that the territory of Qi was remote and vast, and no one could destroy it in one battle.

However, the strength of the Chu State shocked the world and was ambitious for the Central Plains. Xiang Yu is so strong, no prince can turn a blind eye.

That's why he left in a hurry. The alliance must be large enough, and only in this way can Xiang Yu be prevented from going north.

……

When the anti-Qin forces in the world were swarming up, there was a large lake and swamp north of Changyi, east of Chengyang in Dongjun County, and south of Zhangxian County in Xue County.

The people of the time called it Junozawa!

In the last years of the First Emperor, the conscription was heavy, and there were strong men who took risks. Peng Yue is one of them, gathering fisherman brothers and dying in the giant wilderness.

Peng Yue was a person with an extremely stable personality, and at that time, Chen Shi raised troops in Daze Township, and the Kanto region responded. Everyone under his command was about to move, but Peng Yue sat still and watched.

In the chaos of the world, there are as many rebels as stars. However, Peng Yue, who had a strength in his hand, hibernated in Juyeze, watched for a year, and was not moved by the outside world at all.

In December of the second year of the second year, Wei was proclaimed king, and Wei was the revival of Wang Zheng, and Peng Yue did not go to attach. Half a year later, Zhang Han defeated the alliance of Wei, Qi, and Chu, Wei committed suicide, and Peng Yue did not move.

It was not until the end of the third year of the Second Dynasty that Xiang Yu defeated the Qin army in Julu, completely annihilated the king and left the army, Zhang Han's army retreated, and the Great Qin Empire was declining.

At this point, I have joined the ranks of the competition!

In the middle of Konozawa, there is an island above the water. This is Peng Yue's base, and it is also the foundation for the existence of tens of thousands of troops.

At this moment, in a stone pavilion on the isolated island, Peng Yue frowned. The development of the general trend of the world was somewhat unexpected by him. The Great Qin Empire was defeated but not dead, and the land of Qi and Zhao had a change.

This sudden change made Peng Yue feel in a trance. He still remembered the first time Tian Rong looked for him and asked him to attack Tian An, the king of Jibei, with a lot of money.

Driven by the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, he agreed to Tian Rong, but did not go in person, but only sent 20,000 troops to help.

Three days ago, Tian Heng sent a letter. This left him in a trance and didn't know what to do.

Peng Yue doesn't know much about the general trend of the world. But he has an extraordinary understanding of the gains and losses. Because of this, he has always been on the sidelines.

The Six Kingdoms returned to oppose Qin, and he was neither willing to attach to Chu nor help Qin. The Wei dynasty was revived, and Peng Yue also had reservations about the revived clan kingship.

Peng Yue is a person from a lower class and does not have any family background. He knows that only by relying on his own strength can he pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages, and win the wealth and glory of life.

Because of this, Peng Yue has always been an armed force that operates independently. It is not fixed to be subordinate to any kingdom, but only to the strength that can give it the greatest benefit.

If Hu Hai knew this, he would definitely be surprised by the development, Peng Yue's behavior was like a mercenary in later generations.

A mercenary is a professional soldier who is employed by and fights for any country or nation regardless of the interests of the country and all its consequences.

And what Peng Yue did, as well as the soldiers under his command, fit the characteristics of all mercenaries.

Where the interests are, is the direction of action, this is Peng Yue's life principle. And this sentence is also the supreme creed of mercenaries in later generations.

"The General's Seal!" Looking at the boxy talisman seal in the copper box, Peng Yue smiled coldly: "King Qi, it's really a good plan!" ”

"Go and tell Tian Heng, Lao Tzu took it, and after three days, send troops to help Yin!"

"Yui!" His cronies nodded in agreement and strode away.

Thinking about it, Peng Yue held the general's seal letter tightly, and his hands trembled slightly. The general's seal in his hand made him wake up like an initiation.

Suddenly, I had a different understanding of the general trend of the world. Peng Yue knew that there was no free lunch in the world, and if he wanted to get the seal of the general of Qi State, he had to send troops to help Yin.

has been waiting and seeing, taking his own interests as a foothold, and after some analysis of the stakes, Peng Yue suddenly knew that it was time to make a move.

Peng Yue had already thought clearly, all the countries in the Central Plains were fighting hard, and he had missed opportunities again and again, and now he must not miss them in the end.

He is burdened with the ambitions of his brothers, and he must give it a go, and only in this way can he be worthy of the followers of tens of thousands of fishermen.

On this afternoon of clear skies, Peng Yue, who was dormant like an invisible man, accepted the general seal of Tian Rong, the king of Qi, and decided to step out of Juyeze.

At this moment, Tian Rong was still rejoicing, thinking that he had released a fierce horse, but he didn't know that he had released a vicious wolf who had a clear understanding of the general trend of the world.

The world is unpredictable, and it is impermanent. Sometimes that's the case, often in the chaotic world, there will be earth-shattering ghosts.

The originator of guerrilla warfare, the most powerful mercenary group of this era, has completely stepped onto the stage of history.

Make up for one more, Hongta Mountain still owes one more.
