Chapter 324: Surprise Meng Tian (First Update)

Xiao He has been gone for several months, and when Yinggao saw this Great Qin's left minister in Xianyang City again, Xiao He was already at least ten pounds thinner than before, but he looked energetic, obviously more capable than before.

But when Xiao He saw Yinggao again, the emperor who should have been resting in Xianyang City in the past few months in Xiao He's opinion, didn't seem to be as relaxed as he imagined, but had a somewhat melancholy look on his face.

This couldn't help but make Xiao He's heart chuckle for a moment, and said that he thought that Jun Shang would definitely be full of energy to meet the problem I brought back in Xianyang, but now it seems that it is not like that.

According to common sense, Liu Bang's major problem has also been solved, and there is basically no problem within Daqin, plus the test and production of stirrups and other weapons and equipment to deal with the Xiongnu have also to be put on the table, which can be regarded as on the right track, and through this period of time, Feng Qing's use of his other skills has become more and more proficient, but at the moment when all this is developing towards a good place, A few days before Xiao He came back, Meng Tian hurriedly returned to Xianyang City after being summoned by Yinggao, and the news he brought back really made Yinggao a little unhappy.

The news that Meng Tian brought back was naturally related to the Xiongnu, but of course there were more or less places related to Daqin.

By the time Meng Tian returned from Shangjun, the battle between the Xiongnu and Donghu had lasted for more than five months, and this time the news that Meng Tian personally brought back was finally not the same as before.

"Your Majesty, the battle between the Xiongnu and Donghu is rumored to have ended, the king of Donghu was killed by that Xiang Yu in the two armies, almost all the Donghu tribes fled to the north, and the Donghu warriors captured by the Xiongnu were countless......

When Meng Tian said the result of this battle, Yinggao's eyebrows were already tightly wrinkled, this result was not much unexpected to him, and what made him make this expression was the speed at which the result was transmitted to him.

"As far as I know, there are at least dozens of scouts in the territory of my Great Qin, why hasn't any news about this matter been transmitted to Xianyang City before, but only now that I know about it?"

Ying Gao said this, which is a bit of a reproach for Meng Tian.

But Meng Tian also knew that the Yinggao sitting in front of him now was no longer the same person as the Yinggao who went to Shangjun to tell him the strategy of dividing the troops, Yinggao at that time was just a son who did not have any real power in his hands, and now, the power of the entire Great Qin is in his hands, and his vision is no longer comparable to him at that time.

And Yinggao was unhappy because of this matter, Meng Tian didn't have a temper at all, the entire Shangjun and the Great Wall were under his own control, and everyone acted according to their own instructions, so no matter which part of the Xiongnu went wrong, he was duty-bound.

"Your Excellency doesn't know, my Great Qin has already sent nearly a hundred scouts to the various tribes of the Xiongnu when Toumanshan integrated the various tribes of the Xiongnu into one place, scattered among the various tribes of the Xiongnu, trying to find out the latest news of the Xiongnu, but since Mao Dun became the Shan Yu ...... of the Xiongnu."

Speaking of this, Meng Tian's brows were also tightened, he took a breath and looked at Yinggao, and saw that he was still like that, so he could only sigh, and said in his heart that it was a blessing or a curse, and that he couldn't avoid it, so he opened his mouth again.

"Since Mao Dun became the Xiongnu's Shan Yu, the news that the scouts of my Great Qin in the territory of the Xiongnu came back is getting less and less, and even Xiang Yu went to the Xiongnu such a major event, but also the leaders of the Huns' large and small tribes all knew about it before it was transmitted back to Shangjun, this time the Xiongnu and Donghu were at war, and I was also very concerned about the battle situation in Shangjun, and I didn't dare to lead the army out of the Great Wall until I returned this time, and I didn't know until I returned that I Daqin's scouts in the Xiongnu were left with only a few, and the rest were all discovered and cut off by that Maodun, Even the rest of them didn't dare to make any moves, so it led to the fact that my Great Qin couldn't learn about the Xiongnu in time. ”

Meng Tian is not the one who hides it, there is a problem with the scout, he really doesn't know if he doesn't say Yinggao, but he knows in his heart that if he does that, it will only make the problem bigger and bigger in the future.

After Meng Tian's words, Yinggao did not get angry as Meng Tian had imagined before, but lowered his head and pondered for a while before looking at Meng Tian again.

"This matter should have nothing to do with the general, the general should not blame himself, but when I found out about this situation earlier and transmitted it back to Xianyang, I will come up with a way to deal with it, that Xiang Yu arrived in the Xiongnu, plus Mao Dun is a very strict person, he will definitely not let a large number of Daqin scouts appear in the territory of the Xiongnu, so it is reasonable to clear my Daqin's scouts, after the general returns, I will send a team of secret law team to the general, specifically responsible for obtaining information from the Xiongnu and passing it back to Daqin, what does the general think?"

"Meng Tian, thank you!"

Meng Tian understood that Ying Gao really didn't blame him much this time, but after equipping him with the elite of the secret law team, if the information of the Huns could not be passed back, Meng Tian knew that his situation would be really a little bad.

Later, according to Meng Tian's introduction, after this battle, Donghu was afraid that they would not be able to form a force to compete with the Xiongnu in the next ten years, and they were directly chased by the Huns to a barren land further north than Donghu's previous territory, and many of the horses and pastures of the Donghu people before were returned to the Xiongnu.

Although Meng Tian didn't say what this meant. But Yinggao understands that if this is really the case, the survival pressure of the Huns will be greatly reduced, and the source of food will be more sufficient, plus the capture of a very large number of Donghu women, this time the number of children born to the Huns in the next few years will also increase, in short, this war brought the Huns endless benefits.

If Mao Dun can wait for more than ten years, Ying Gao believes that the Xiongnu will definitely become the enemy of Great Qin at that time, the kind that cannot be destroyed, but Ying Gao knows in his heart that although Mao Dun is young, he may not be able to wait for that time, and Xiang Yu next to him will definitely not let him wait until that time.

For Meng Tian, Ying Gao didn't ask too much for him, after all, if the current strength of the Xiongnu is insufficient, you can't let Meng Tian take less than 100,000 troops out of the Great Wall to destroy the Xiongnu, it's simply unrealistic.

Yinggao knows that between Daqin and the Xiongnu now, the most important thing to sit in Diaoyutai is himself, if the offensive of the Xiongnu side is in full swing makes him anxious, then he will be brought to the rhythm of others, Yinggao has to do is to maintain his rhythm, and then quietly wait for the day when Mao Dun and Xiang Yu can't hold their breath.

Meng Tian ended this report to Yinggao, not only was he not blamed by Yinggao, but also got fifty elites in the secret law team, which made Meng Tian still feel very surprised to return to Xianyang this time, but he didn't expect that the surprise that Yinggao really wanted to give him hadn't come up with.

The day before Meng Tian was about to return to Shangjun, Yinggao took him alone to an armory in Xianyang City, accompanied by Zhang Kai.

For Zhang Kai, Meng Tian, who has been guarding in Shangjun, is not too familiar, and he is also confused about Ying Gaoneng personally taking him to the armory, and he didn't understand what was going on at all, until Zhang Kai took out a set of armor and weapons from some corners of the armory.

What kind of person is Meng Tian, that is the task of fighting with the Huns in Shangjun, what kind of armor the Huns use, what kind of weapons they use, Meng Tian is very clear.

So when he saw the long swords and Qin crossbows that Zhang Kai took out, a string was plucked in his heart.

"Your Majesty, this is ......"

"Before I sent the general back a set of weapons and armor used by the Huns, this time it was studied quite thoroughly, so this set of equipment was produced, whether the weight or length of the weapons, all in order to restrain the Huns' weapons manufacturing, Daqin's cavalry is almost all in Shangjun, the general should first bring back several sets of equipment to test, if it can really suppress the Hun equipment, then send back the news, I will rush out of 50,000 sets one after another, so that the elite cavalry in Shangjun are all equipped with this kind of weapons, Once there is a war with the Xiongnu, so that my soldiers of Great Qin will not have so many casualties. ”

Ying Gao's words were an understatement, but Meng Tian was not a novice who didn't understand anything, of course he knew how much effort Ying Gao needed to consume in this short sentence he just said.

Originally, according to Meng Tian's idea, it was almost impossible for Great Qin to destroy the Xiongnu in the near future, especially when the Xiongnu had just destroyed Donghu, which was almost a northern grassland, and now what they could do was to guard the Great Wall, the lifeline of Great Qin.

And the reason for this is that before Meng Tian, it seems that because of the lack of troops, Great Qin has just experienced the lack of progress from the late period of the First Emperor, which caused almost the entire reaction of Great Qin, and then it took Yinggao a lot of effort to exterminate these anti-Qin forces one by one, the instability of the people's will and the loss of war, the lack of troops is certain, and it is not a problem that can be solved in a year and a half, so Meng Tianxin said that after he went back, he would use these personal hands in his current hands to defend the Great Wall, which would be considered a victory. Other thoughts will not be available for at least five years.

But as far as Yinggao's previous words, coupled with the few tangible objects that Zhang Kai handed to him, it seemed that a door was reopened for Meng Tian in an instant.

It turns out that this method can still be used to improve the combat effectiveness of my Great Qin Sergeant!

This was the only thought that Meng Tian had in his heart, and after that, he looked at these weapons and armor up and down, left and right, inside and out, several times, and then he was even more eager to put them on and go out to find a Hun cavalry to fight.

In Meng Tian's eyes, although these weapons and armor have not been tested in any war, Meng Tian almost dared to conclude that as long as he fought with the Hun cavalry, with the ability of those soldiers under his hands, plus a short period of time to familiarize himself with the use of these weapons, according to what Ying Gao said, if a 50,000-person Great Qin cavalry was equipped, it could be equivalent to at least 100,000 cavalry before.

What is this equivalent to, it is equivalent to Ying Gao directly sent a cavalry of 50,000 people to Meng Tian!

You know, this is cavalry, the most difficult to train in the world, Meng Tian still has a lot of elite soldiers in Shangjun, but those elite soldiers are infantry, fighting with the Huns, can only do some auxiliary work, this is not that Daqin does not have so many war horses, that is, these infantry do not have the talent and ability to become cavalry, it is like you have no wings, you can't fly in the sky, you can only be an infantry for a lifetime.

Therefore, Meng Tian really attached great importance to the more than 50,000 cavalry in advance, even if he lost dozens of them in a small-scale battle, it would make Meng Tian feel distressed and unable to sleep all night, and now, he can take a long breath for the time being.

In the end, Meng Tian grinned and took these weapons and armor, rode his horse and galloped towards Shangjun, which showed where his mind was.

"Your Majesty, why don't you talk about stirrups and show them to General Meng Tian, with stirrups, there are more than 50,000 cavalry in Shangjun, right?"

His own design made Meng Tian happy to be like this, and he was quite proud in his open heart, but he still had a little itch in his heart, because of his most proud design, stirrups. Yinggao didn't mention it to Meng Tian at all this time.

Zhang Kai knew that this stirrup would also be used on the cavalry of Shangjun sooner or later, since Meng Tian was clamoring that the cavalry was not enough, why didn't he hurry up and use this stirrup. What's more, there were already 30,000 ready-made stirrups in this library, and even Meng Tian was standing next to the box containing stirrups before, but unfortunately, he didn't see this artifact.

"The stirrup is my Great Qin's killer weapon, it can't be easily revealed unless it is absolutely necessary, you guy, if you open your mouth and close your mouth again, the word stirrup will be punished by you, how are the armor and weapons against the Huns made? Within three months, General Meng Tian will send someone to pick it up, and if you can't hand over the 50,000 pieces, I will punish you for a lifetime! ”

For such a simple person as Zhang Kai, this trick is still very effective, and when Zhang Kai heard it, he hurriedly said goodbye to Yinggao, and went to work on the 50,000 sets of equipment.
