Chapter 489: Speech Barrier (Second Update)

Long before leaving, Han Xin had already realized that there would definitely be a big problem in the language after arriving in the Peacock Dynasty, but it would definitely be unreasonable to send someone to learn the language in advance, so doing it would make Daqin's plan reveal in advance, so in the end, Han Xin didn't think of how Qi Yi could solve this problem, he had the intention to take a few leaders of various schools to go out with them, but one was that those leaders were not in place yet.

The two are that their group is a bit too dangerous in the early stage, and even the sergeants under their command don't know if they can protect it, let alone the scholars, although Yinggao let these scholars go to the Peacock Dynasty, but for their safety issues, they also repeatedly told Han Xin in the letter, and now the problem is that they can't understand what people say, even if there are scholars, it's basically in vain.

"Although there is a little incomprehensible in words, but naturally there are other ways for them to tell us what we need, when I just arrived in the Xiongnu, although I found some people who know some Xiongnu languages to lead, but I really don't understand the language of the Xiongnu, in this regard, I should be a lot stronger than the general."

Han Xin thought about it, and said that what Xiang Yu said was really reasonable, when Xiang Yu first arrived in the Xiongnu, it must not be incomprehensible to the language of the Huns, although because the Xiongnu admired the culture and life of Daqin very much, many people with high status of the Huns could speak some words of Daqin, but on how to balance the two languages, how to communicate with each other in the case of language barriers, Xiang Yu really had more say than Han Xin.

"Okay, since Shan Yu can solve this problem of language barrier, this matter is still very reliable, let's set up camp here for the time being, and send a competent person to the village to take a look while resting, and see if we can loot a man from the Mauryan Empire into their camp without knowing it!"

After deciding this matter with Xiang Yu, after Xiang Yu ordered his men to set up camp to rest, Han Xin immediately returned to his vanguard camp.

That night, Han Xin not only sent a team composed of three Great Qin elite cavalry to let them go to the village in front of them to loot and bring back a person, but also sent a person to turn over and go back to the other side of the mountain range to inform Lu Jia of the situation here, he knew that when Lu Jia learned about the situation here, he would write a letter to Yinggao to report their situation here.

Because of the peculiarity of the geographical location between the Mauryan Dynasty and Great Qin, if you want to send the news back as quickly as possible, the only way to do it is through the three passages below the mountain range.

But even so, Han Xin also knew that when Yinggao received their first news, they Yinggao had already fought with the main force of the Mauryan Dynasty, and at that time, he could only wait until the war had a temporary result before he could continue to report to Yinggao, otherwise if he would be sent back halfway through the words, Han Xin also understood that with Yinggao's temperament, if he did this, it was estimated that he would be beaten half to death by Yinggao when he went back.

Lu Jia would always stay at the other end of the mountain range, either taking the initiative to collect it, or waiting for news from Han Xin and Xiang Yu, and then send the news to Daqin.

Lu Jia was an extremely intelligent person, and he understood that although the environment on this large barren land was definitely incomparable with the other counties of Great Qin, it would definitely become a very important area of Great Qin in the end, carrying the role of an important path from Xianyang to the Peacock Dynasty.

Because in this era, there will almost certainly be casualties on the sea, so the land route is the way that everyone is most willing to take, after Han Xin and Xiang Yu left, Lu Jia wrote a letter as soon as possible, on the one hand, Han Xin and Xiang Yu set off smoothly, and found out that there should be no enemy as soon as they went out and told Yinggao.

On the other hand, it is a rather bold suggestion to Yinggao, that is, to build a straight road from Xianyang City to Bashu, and then to this mountain range, although this may be a big project, will consume a lot of manpower and material resources, but this will become a project that will benefit the present and the future.

Especially after Daqin took down the Peacock Dynasty, if you want to let the news between Daqin and the Peacock Dynasty go through, a straight road is very necessary, especially now that there are almost straight roads from Xianyang City to all important counties, if this matter is done, it is not very abrupt.

Counting the days, Yinggao knew that the three-way army should have all gone, Yinggao felt that he should usher in a period of anxious waiting, but it didn't take long for him to find that Lu Jia had disappointed him, and the city proved that the people who dared to take the initiative to invite Ying to explore the barren land were not good at stubble, at least their minds would not be idle.

Building a straight road from Xianyang to Bashu and then to the mountains of the barren land is really something that Yinggao had never thought of before.

Ying Gao didn't expect it, and it didn't mean that this matter wouldn't work, but in the last year or so, almost all of his energy was focused on the Peacock Dynasty, for Daqin, that is, if there is nothing to pay attention to, whether there is news of Hu Hai, and other things are carried out step by step according to Qin law under the supervision of Xiao He.

And Lu Jia's proposal, so that Yinggao has some new ideas, before I didn't expect to explore that barren land, the land of Bashu has always been ignored by Yinggao, it stands to reason that it is already a very remote place, Shu Road is difficult, although the land is very rich, but the roads are different, so the population there is not very large.

Not only that, Xianyang City has straight roads to many places, but there are really no straight roads to Bashu, because Yinggao builds straight roads, which are determined according to the number of people who can radiate, so that places like Bashu can really only lean back.

But now it's different, now half of the barren land has to be owned by Great Qin, and in the future, waves of troops and other things will pass through Bashu to the Peacock Dynasty.

After taking the Peacock Dynasty, some of the specialties and populations there will definitely migrate to the land of Daqin through there, although I don't know how long it will take to get the results of Han Xin and Xiang Yu's battles, but they are also idle, and it is not impossible to do this, at least the straight road from Xianyang City to Bashu is still not effortless, and it is enough to rely on the people who serve in the counties and counties along the way.

At such a time when he learned that Han Xin and Xiang Yu had set off smoothly and that there would be no war for the time being, Yinggao still found Xiao He and Meng Yi after some arguments of his own, and told him that he wanted to build a straight road from Xianyang to Bashu.

Xiao He and Meng Yi are still very supportive of this matter, not to mention anything else, when the First Emperor was in power, the conscription of the people of Daqin was already so heavy, isn't it still that the straight road should be repaired, the imperial mausoleum should be repaired, and the palace should be repaired? At that time, no official dared to stand up and say no, and Yinggao's proposal with a serious purpose naturally did not dare to come out to refute.

Anyone who knows Yinggao knows that in the current Great Qin Dynasty, if anyone stands up for the sake of being famous and argues unreasonably, it is estimated that he is the only one who will build the straight road from Xianyang City to the land of Bashu.

Therefore, on the third day after Lu Jia's news was delivered to Xianyang City, the order to build a straight road between Xianyang City and Bashu was issued from Xianyang City, because at present, Daqin has reduced a lot of forced labor policies, and such a project has not caused much trouble among the people.

It's just that there are some scholars with a little bit of brains who talk privately while drinking, saying that it is estimated that Daqin's battle against the Mauryan Empire is still very smooth, otherwise the emperor would not be in such a hurry to build a straight road, although it may take at least a year for this straight road to be completely repaired, but after it is repaired, it is self-evident for the convenience of the land of Bashu.

Yinggao, who was waiting for the news of the war, was undoubtedly a little irritable, so he had to find an outlet to vent his mentality, and now, the construction of the Inspector Straight Road has become his compulsory course, and he even went to the outskirts of Xianyang City in person on the first day of construction, which made the officials of the Inspector very cautious, for fear that what he did there was wrong, so that the emperor would find out, but it was a matter of losing his head.

At this time, Xiang Yu and Han Xin, who were involved in Yinggao's heart, although there was no danger at all, they also encountered a big problem.

After sending a three-person team to arrest the local people, Han Xin and Xiang Yu have been discussing various possibilities and how they should deal with them.

In this kind of discussion, Xiang Yu knew that he could no longer make a statement like when he was in the court of the Huns, because if he wanted to really win this large-scale war at the lowest cost, he must consider the three-way army at the same time as Yinggao thought.

According to their previous estimates, the biggest possibility is that they are now on the border of the Mauryan Dynasty, like the Yelang of Great Qin, and the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty should be in the center of the entire dynasty, so if the two of them want to attract the attention of the people in the capital, they have to create a little momentum in several places on their border.

But a few days later, the three-man team actually brought back a citizen of the Mauryan Empire, but it made their plans a little confusing.

After seeing this guy from the Peacock Dynasty, Han Xin and Xiang Yu both frowned, because Xiang Yu knew that the appearance of the Huns and the Great Qin people was slightly different, but it was just a little different in appearance, to put it bluntly, it was caused by the difference in the dietary structure of the Huns and the Central Plains.

But the people of the Peacock Dynasty in front of them were not only different in appearance, from their figure to their skin color, he was very different from the Great Qin people, so that Han Xin and Xiang Yu looked at him as if they had seen some unknown creature, and they looked at each other several times, and then they came to their senses, and when they came to their senses, this person had already fainted from being frightened by them.

"How did you get this person back, and did you alarm others?"

After discovering that the appearance of the people of the Peacock Dynasty and the people of the Great Qin Dynasty was so different, Han Xin directly asked such a sentence, nothing else, that is, the target of the three-person team he sent out was really a bit conspicuous, in case he met with the people of the Peacock Dynasty, people would basically know that he didn't know about us at all, and according to common sense, they would definitely inform their local officials of this matter, so they would not be far from being exposed.

"This person has been observed by us for a long time, I am afraid that he does not have any family members, and does not communicate with other people much, and often goes around the village, and I waited until I caught him in one night, when no one else knew about it."

After listening to the answers of the people under their command, Han Xin and Xiang Yucai were all relieved, and they were ready to start interrogating this guy who seemed to be an ordinary person of the Peacock Dynasty.

Because Xiang Yu had already boasted about Haikou in front of Han Xin before, Han Xin consciously withdrew from this matter, but handed it all over to Xiang Yu.

After Xiang Yu woke up this person, he opened his mouth, and what he said was really a lot of things that he couldn't understand, not the dialect of any place in the Central Plains of Great Qin, nor the language of the Huns, let alone the language of Yueshi and Donghu, and it was 108,000 miles away from those.

This kind of interrogation is undoubtedly a big project, Han Xin waited outside for more than an hour, but what Xiang Yu was waiting for was Xiang Yu's suggestion that he go back to his big tent first and sleep a little, and then come back after dawn tomorrow, as soon as Han Xin heard this, he could only go to sleep according to Xiang Yu's suggestion.

Early the next morning, Han Xin still came to Xiang Yu's big tent early, but at this time Xiang Yu was already asleep in the big tent, according to Xiang Yu's guards, Xiang Yu had been interrogating the people of the Peacock Dynasty who had been captured last night, and he couldn't sleep until an hour ago.

Han Xin knew that Xiang Yu was the soul of this army, and staying up late in such a harsh climate would definitely have a great impact on his body, so he did not wake Xiang Yu up immediately, but waited for Xiang Yu to wake up while learning from Xiang Yu's lieutenant general about the situation of the people of the Peacock Dynasty.

At this time, it was another half a day, and Xiang Yu, who had made up for sleep, finally woke up, he obviously didn't know about Han Xin's arrival, but got up as soon as possible and wanted to ask his guards to call Han Xin.
