Chapter 604: Loach-like Characters (First Update)

Xiao He's suggestion at this time is to let Yinggao adopt the same method as the relics to lose Jia, Antiochus III is the monarch of Seleucus, if he has been in Seleucus, it is indeed a very significant hidden danger, but if he is not in Seleuc, but is promoted by Yinggao into Xianyang City, then Seleu is a group of dragons without a leader, even if he has any back-up and arrangements before, these will be greatly discounted with his departure.

Meng Yi thought about it, and also expressed support for Xiao He's suggestion.

In fact, what Xiao He said, Ying Gao had already thought about it a long time ago, and indeed, transferring Antiochus III to the realm of Great Qin would definitely solve a lot of possibilities.

But Ying Gao always felt that Antiochus III would not be so stupid, he knew that the relics were captured by Daqin and taken to Xianyang City, and he would not be unaware of the result after his surrender, so once he really left a back hand on the territory of Seleuc, it was not something that could be solved by just bringing him here.

But judging from the current situation, it was obvious that it was more dangerous to leave him in Seleucus, and after a period of consideration, Yinggao decided to adopt Xiao He's advice and escort the Seleu monarch Antiochus III and his main generals to the territory of Great Qin first, and then talk about it. After all, that would be conducive to Han Xin and Meng Tian's follow-up operations after conquering Seleus, such as disbanding the Seleus soldiers and taking over the Seleu city.

On the same day, Yinggao wrote a letter to Han Xin and Meng Tian, informing them that they would immediately send Antiochus III and others to Daqin, and that their safety on the way must be guaranteed.

This time and again, Ying Gao knew that when Antiochus III really arrived in the territory of Great Qin, it was estimated that it would be a few months later, but the distance of this era was so far, there was only so much he could do, if there was really any change in this, after all, the sergeants in the hands of Han Xin and Meng Tian did not have any losses, and Ying Gao believed that the two of them would still be able to cope with it.

The news that Seleu was broken by Great Qin was not made public by Yinggao in the territory of Great Qin, but it became a shocking news in the territory around Seleucus, especially Antiochus III would directly surrender to Great Qin, which is quite a strange thing in the eyes of many people, almost everyone thought that even if Seleu was destroyed, it would have to make Great Qin's 300,000 army pay a lot of price, such a result was something they didn't expect at all.

This includes Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng, who have safely moved their soldiers and civilians to the new city.

Since they escaped, things were really just as the two of them had imagined, Daqin's cavalry did not chase them at all, but occupied the city abandoned by them as soon as possible, which made them unhurriedly follow the escape route that Zhao Hu had planned for them before to the city that Zhao Hu actually controlled, and they were almost unaware of it along the way.

After settling in the city, their greatest attention was focused on the battle between Great Qin and Seleuc, and the result they were most afraid of was that Seleucus was not destroyed by Great Qin, if Antiochus III really won this battle, both of them knew how miserable the outcome would be once they were known by Antiochus III.

But in the end, Zhao Hutan heard the ending, although Seleu was also destroyed by Great Qin, but it was not something they could understand.

"Antiochus III has already surrendered? This is not in line with the fact that I have been in contact with Antiochus III several times before, he only lost less than 100,000 men, why did he surrender? ”

Zhao Cheng was obviously the most shocked by this news, their affairs have always been in contact with Antiochus III, what kind of person Antiochus III is, he definitely knows, such a result, he is a little unbelievable.

"They clashed with Daqin's cavalry three times, and both times they were almost killed by Daqin's cavalry without blood, and only one raid barely ended up in a close situation, and the siege equipment used by Daqin made the Seleucus gate almost breached, it is estimated that under such circumstances, Antiochus III already knew that they had no chance of winning against Daqin, so they surrendered, after all, Seleucus still has a lot of people and soldiers, which is different from them sending troops to attack other forces!"

Zhao Hu almost got first-hand news, so he still has a very objective view of this matter, not only him, but almost all the monarchs of other dynasties also see this way after experiencing a short shock after getting the news.

After the two of them finished expressing their opinions, they both looked at Hu Hai, only to see that Hu Hai still didn't know what to think, and only after a long time did he open his mouth.

"Having said that, but Antiochus III's surrender is still quite strange, although this person values his soldiers and his own people very much, but according to Seleucus's military strength, he has obviously not completely finished the struggle that he can do, among them, I am afraid that there will be some other reasons, we first observe the situation of Seleucus, and then say anything else, we must not let Han Xin or Antiochus III know where we are."

After Hu Hai said this, he discussed with Zhao Cheng and Zhao Hu about the development direction of their city, and then gave up.

Just when Han Xin and Meng Tian were in full swing to start their inventory of the Seleu territory, in a distant place where they simply did not have the time and energy to notice, a small power with only one city in a territory was wiped out by a small force that had just emerged around it, and that small force also changed from only owning one city to owning two cities.

This kind of thing always happens several times a year in this land, and now is the time when Seleucus has just been destroyed by Great Qin, and it is also a good time for various forces to expand their territory, so this incident did not cause any waves in this land.

After Antiochus III surrendered, Han Xin and Meng Tian made very urgent inquiries about him, and one of the most important things was naturally where Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng and others were.

Although this matter is just a reason for Daqin to destroy Seleuc, this matter is indeed a matter that Daqin is very concerned about now.

After all, Hu Hai is Yinggao's younger brother, in this era, he has the pure bloodline of the first emperor, if he blindly goes against Yinggao, if he becomes big all of a sudden, Daqin Ke will not be able to control him.

"What? When we attacked before, it was Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng and others who abandoned the city and fled? Why were you Seleucians in the city taken away by the two of them? They have only been in your Seleuc realm for such a short time, how can they have such appeal? ”

Hearing Antiochus III actually say that it was Hu Hai who ran away from the city he was going to attack before, Han Xin and Meng Tian felt as if they had been punched in their hearts, so that Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng ran away under their noses.

But what Antiochus III said, Han Xin didn't think it was very credible at first, so he asked the above question.

"The thirty or forty thousand horses in that city were brought over after they gathered from the territory of the Mauryan Dynasty, and the people in the city were all high-ranking castes who were not willing to live in the Peacock Dynasty under the rule of Great Qin, and it was very normal for them to follow them now, in the final analysis, I and that Hu Hai were just a cooperative relationship, that city, even if I lent it to Hu Hai, but I didn't expect them to escape when you attacked."

In this case, Antiochus III naturally has nothing to hide about Hu Hai, after all, that is the matter that Daqin focuses on, and if he wants to cover for other things, it is the best way to tell the truth about such a matter.

"And do you know where they will flee?"

"If I had known in advance that they had other places to go, I would not have given this city to him with confidence, according to what they said, they went from Daqin to the Mauryan Dynasty and then came to the territory of our Seleucus in a short period of time, and they didn't know anything about this chaotic place before, so I decided that they would not have any other places to go, as for where they fled to, I really can't estimate, I have also sent a team of people to find out before, But it was as if they had disappeared, and they didn't even find out where they went. ”

These words were obviously not made up by Antiochus III, Han Xin and Meng Tian knew it, because the sudden escape of the previous city made Antiochus III not arrange the defense at all, which led to the hasty attack of the first battle, and it was difficult to get back after heavy losses.

After learning these news, Han Xin and Meng Tian suddenly felt that it was really not an accident that the Great Qin people couldn't catch Hu Hai repeatedly, but just as Yinggao had said before, Hu Hai really had some abilities that few people might not have, and this time even Antiochus III was fooled by him, when the Seleucus was fine, he and Zhao Cheng stayed here for a long time, and when they really encountered difficulties, and this difficulty was brought by him, he actually ran away.

Han Xin knew that in such a place, even if you have thirty or fifty thousand men and horses, you will definitely not survive if you don't settle down, so during this time, Hu Hai must have accomplished something behind Antiochus III's back, which requires him to check slowly, and he secretly decided in his heart that Hu Hai must be found out in the process of taking over Seleucus, otherwise, even if this attack on Seleu is so successful, it is still very flawed for him.

After saying these things, Antiochus III was already keenly aware that a large part of Han Xin and Meng Tian's energy had been attracted by Hu Hai, and he knew that this would be very helpful for what he was going to accomplish next.

In the first few months of occupying Seleuc, Han Xin and Meng Tian disbanded the surviving army of Seleu on the spot, scattered more than 100,000 people and scattered them into various cities, obviously, according to their ideas, these people will slowly accept the laws of Great Qin and become the people of Great Qin like the people of the Mauryan Dynasty before, this is just a matter of time.

At the same time, Han Xin and Meng Tian had been searching for places where Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng might go. Until I received the first reply from Inco.

Seeing that Yinggao asked them to send Antiochus III and all his cronies to Daqin, Han Xin and Meng Tian were all slightly relieved, although they were a little uncertain about who was Antiochus III's real cronies, but in their opinion, if Antiochus III went to Daqin by himself, their hidden dangers would basically be extinguished, the snake would not be headless, Antiochus III was gone, and Seleu would not have any difficulty for them.

For Daqin's expeditionary force, everything seemed to be going very smoothly, but Hu Hai's whereabouts were not found for a long time, and after Antiochus III and several of his generals were sent to Xianyang City in Daqin, the progress of the annexation of Seleu was very fast, and Han Xin and Meng Tian both thought that they only had a few more months, and they could leave here after Yinggao's next instructions.

And Yinggao, a few months later, finally met the legendary Antiochus III, and at the same time sent the news that Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng had escaped this time, and it was under the noses of Han Xin and Meng Tian.

"Hu Hai, this guy is really a slippery loach, he can adapt to such an unfamiliar environment so quickly, and at the same time he can leave a way out for himself, which is really not to be underestimated!"

After reading Han Xin's letter and personally asking Antiochus III about the party, Ying Gao couldn't help but sigh for a while, even he didn't know why, he always had a premonition in his heart, if he couldn't catch Hu Hai earlier, this guy would definitely cause more trouble to himself and Daqin in the future, but the matter has come to this point, and Ying Gao has no good way to do it except to urge Han Xin and Meng Tian more.

Such a situation can't help but make Ying Gao sigh, now that Daqin's stall is already so big, if there are really few people who can stand up no matter where they are, things will really not be easy to do.
