After eating this fat hare, Zhao Cheng and Dahan walked out of the earth shrine overnight.

This is just a temporary foothold for them, because they are anxious to know the news in Xianyang City, the two of them did not go far after withdrawing, after finding this inaccessible earth temple, Zhao Chengcheng rested in this earth temple, and during the day the Han went to the surrounding area of Xianyang City to inquire about the news, fortunately, it didn't take too long, he heard Yinggao's decision.

The direction they went to, of course, was Xiangjun, although they had never been to Xiangjun, but Zhao Cheng also knew that the county governance of Xiangjun was very vast, and it was long and narrow, connected with Qianzhong County in the north, bordered by Yelang who had just been recovered by Yinggao in the west, and the east was not only connected to a large area of Guilin County, but also connected to Changsha County, which was a good place, and the south of Xiangjun, in addition to a large area of seawater, there was also the hinterland of South Vietnam that had not been explored by Daqin.

Such a complex terrain made Zhao Cheng believe that once he entered Nanjun, he would definitely be able to do something, and with the Huhai line, his goal finally had a similar start.

Here, Zhao Cheng is indeed rushing to Xiangjun, and no one really knows his route.

But he didn't know his route, but Yinggao knew that he would go to Xiangjun sooner or later, so Yinggao's first move was slightly earlier than Huhai's departure.

Another letter, a letter to Fusu in Nanhai County.

Because Guilin County and Xiang County were both fought by Fusu, Fusu left thousands of people and horses in both counties, and it was very clear in his previous report to Yinggao that these horses were to protect the county guards of the two counties established by Yinggao later.

But after receiving Yinggao's letter, Fusu was shocked by Hu Hai's appointment as the county guard of Xiangjun, Fusu thought that Yinggao would never give up his principles and let those sons in Xianyang City take up important positions in Daqin at will, but he didn't expect that it would not take long for Hu Hai to let a young man like Hu Hai and have a black history come to Xiangjun to serve as a county guard.

After reading Yinggao's letters, Fusu finally understood the reason, in which Yinggao asked Fusu to do his best to provide Hu Hai with some protection after Hu Hai arrived in Xiangjun, and more importantly, to observe what kind of people came into contact with Hu Hai.

Fusu knew at a glance that most of this was a problem, why did he want to see what kind of characters contacted Hu Hai, isn't that surveillance?

Although with such doubts, Fusu knew that there were such a wide range of rumors in Xianyang City, and Yinggao not only did not punish any of the sons of Daqin, but finally calmed down the rumors in Xianyang City by sending Hu Hai out, and it was interesting enough for the Ying clan to do so.

And to spy on Hu Hai, there must be a reason, Fusu believes that if Hu Hai is really fine, Yinggao will not find a head to kill him for no reason, let alone send him to a place like Xiangjun first and then deliberately rectify him, this Yinggao's style is simply inconsistent......

In the end, Fusu decided to go to Xiangjun to see it in person, and by the way, he praised his youngest brother, and of course, there was also a purpose to see what changes had happened in Hu Hai, which could attract Yinggao's attention.

By this time, Yinggao's seeds and chess pieces were basically scattered, and Nanhai County, Guilin County and Xiang County, three places previously occupied by the Nanyue tribe, became his next chess game.

The previous Yinggao once thought that he had the ability to expand the territory of Daqin outward, but after this rumor incident, and found out that immigration could not make Guilin and Xiangjun quickly catch up with other counties in Daqin, Yinggao finally understood more deeply a sentence that he thought he had reached before: If you want to go outside, you must first settle inside.

After the rumors in Xianyang City that were so easily spread, and the foreseeable fact that Guilin and Xiangjun would take at least a year or two to begin to take shape, Yinggao found that the interior of Daqin was really far from what he had imagined before.

And what Yinggao thought before was that he had built enough warships, collected enough, and the navy had detected the sea routes, and then he could go to sea to fight, which was really a bit too simple.

Yinggao knew that if he didn't make every county under his rule an impregnable existence, he really couldn't attack others with confidence.

Not to mention anything else, every border of Great Qin must at least be as strong as the Great Wall of Shangjun, only in this way can you have the confidence and confidence to send out the army under your command.

Because once the battle is defeated, it is not only a matter of losing troops and losing troops, but also a great possibility of attracting the enemy, and if that happens, it will be quite embarrassing.

Ying Gao, who was standing alone in front of Daqin's map, sighed deeply after thinking of this, he was determined to come step by step first, waiting for the people who were ambushed in Xianyang City before, whether he was Zhao Cheng or not, after being destroyed by himself.

Fusu, Liu Wei, Hu Hai, the three bright or dark lines, although each has its own merits, but Yinggao believes that in the end, these arrangements will never be in vain.

What he has to do now is to wait, of course, for the further development of Great Qin, and for the people of Great Qin to reach a new height of their belief in themselves.

The two successive patrols made Yinggao understand the lives of many people outside Xianyang City, and he knew that he should retreat for a while, where was Daqin, and Yinggao's heart was more or less total.

Of course, there is another important reason, that is, the Peacock Empire, which should have been very powerful before in Yinggao's memory, should be going downhill at present, and the speed is not slow.

Moreover, the so-called Peacock Dynasty is not his ultimate goal in the depths of Yinggao's heart, but just a transit station and a whetstone to verify the strength of Great Qin, so it is still very necessary to accumulate steadily.

Just as Yinggao was studying how to increase the population of Great Qin in the Xianyang Palace to deal with the military service problems caused by the wars he might launch in the future, a small piece of news reached Xianyang.

The news was sent by Meng Tian from Shangjun, and the content was very simple, that is, Xiang Yu, who had been recuperating and recuperating before, and had barely made any moves, suddenly launched a surprise attack on Donghu and the Yue clan at the same time not long ago, especially the alien Yue clan that had been standing on the northern grassland before, after Xiang Yu's surprise attack, his vitality was greatly damaged, and he directly retreated to a place further north, and the environment and conditions were more harsh.

As a result, almost all of the most beautiful plains outside the Great Wall in the north of Great Qin were owned by the Xiongnu under Xiang Yu. This has never been seen in the history of the northern grasslands, but now, because of a young man from the southeast county of the Central Plains, it has appeared.

After getting the news, Yinggao did not disagree, he summoned Han Xin, Meng Yi and other generals to him, handed them Meng Tian's recital, and then waited for their speeches.

This matter is big or small for Daqin, because of the previous fiasco, the number of young and middle-aged men of the Xiongnu has decreased sharply, and it will be absolutely difficult to form a force that can compete with Daqin's cavalry in a few years.

Another point is that according to the previous report of the scouts lurking in the depths of the Xiongnu in Great Qin, Xiang Yu also formulated a lot of rules and policies on the territory of the Xiongnu after he sat firmly in the position of the Xiongnu.

Although there was no earth-shattering new policy implemented by Yinggao in Daqin, it also made a considerable change to the system and habits of the Xiongnu people in a short period of time.

The most important point is that the arbitrary possession, sale and killing of slaves have been completely prohibited by Xiang Yu, and they are not very forceful means.

Xiang Yu imitated the way of the Central Plains territory, and the slaves possessed by the Xiongnu tribes were uniformly distributed to the Huns' household registration, although the Huns' household registration system was not as perfect as Daqin, but Xiang Yu began to consciously establish this system as early as when he had just become the Xiongnu Shan Yu.

After giving the slave household registration, Xiang Yu stipulated that people who did not have land and tribes could be hired to become servants of others, which not only solved the fact that the previous Huns always killed slaves in their own families, which led to the fact that the Donghu people and the Yue people hated the Huns, but also allowed some Xiongnu tribal leaders and nobles to continue to have servants in their mansions.

Under such a policy, after another year of fermentation, the effect was soon revealed, and many low-level people who were about to be unable to mix in Donghu fled to the territory of the Xiongnu after learning that the slaves of the Xiongnu had become legal residents and that there was such a thing as remuneration.

And Xiang Yu also accepts all the orders for such immigrants, as long as you come, I will give you a legal status in the Xiongnu.

After a period of time, Donghu and Yueshi naturally realized the huge hidden dangers brought to them by the Xiongnu's policy, once this situation did not improve, the population of the Xiongnu would grow like a snowball.

And the strength of the grassland is undoubtedly the size of the population, so Donghu and Yueshi began to find fault with the Xiongnu at every turn, but Xiang Yu was unmoved for a long time, until he suddenly sent troops in one night, almost exhausted the strength of the Xiongnu, and when attacking the stronger Yueshi, he was personally in command, with his own 10,000 Qin soldiers as the vanguard, and the cavalry of the Yueshi was almost powerless to fight back.

"Your Majesty, if you continue to do so in this situation, I'm afraid that the ambition of the feather wolf must be in my Great Qin, so you must guard against it!"

After reading it, Meng Yi's face was covered with gloom at that time, obviously such a change was completely unexpected by him, he never expected that the Huns, who had just been greatly injured, would show such a strong combat effectiveness under Xiang Yu's hands.

Meng Tian's introduction to the causes and consequences of this battle is quite detailed, so when he looks at his report, he basically knows that Xiang Yu must not have been idle in the past two years, but he is just a real person who does not show his face.

Moreover, Meng Tian also mentioned that almost all of the Xiongnu cavalry were equipped with stirrups, and it was precisely for this reason that they were able to achieve an overwhelming advantage in the battle with the Yueshi cavalry.

It is also the overwhelming superiority of the cavalry under the command of Xiang Yu mentioned by Meng Tian in the enemy, which made Meng Yi's heart have a very big sense of distress, as the captain of Daqin, although Yinggao is still in charge of key issues, such as the construction and conscription of Daqin warships that are in full swing in the south, but Meng Yi has never relaxed his attention to Daqin's military deployment, especially the enemies outside the Great Wall, after all, they are almost the only visible enemies of Daqin.

"General Han Xin, what do you think of this?"

Regarding Meng Yi's statement, Ying Gao just nodded slightly, and turned to ask Han Xin, Ying Gao knew that Han Xin had been to Shangjun once because of the previous trapping of Zhang Liang, and he had not stayed there for a long time.

With Han Xin's mind, he would definitely spare no effort to understand some of the situation of the Xiongnu during that time, so Ying Gao asked Han Xin at this time, naturally hoping that he would say something different.

Han Xin looked at Yinggao, then at Meng Yi, and put aside the battle report that he had just read for a short time in his hand, and then slowly opened his mouth.

"I don't know if you have ever thought that the current Huns and the previous Huns, although the Huns are still fighting the Huns, but the leaders have been replaced by Xiang Yu, Xiang Yu and Mao Dun, naturally there is a great difference, and this difference, in my opinion, will also affect the changes of the Huns."

"What's changed?"

As soon as Han Xin's opening remarks came out, Ying Gao knew that there was a play, his brother-in-law had been cultivated for so long, and he was obviously no longer like before, looking at the problem only on the surface, according to Han Xin, the matter of the Huns, in the final analysis, it was Xiang Yu's matter, this statement, Ying Gao undoubtedly agreed very much.

"When the Xiongnu were in charge of Mao Dun, they didn't have any other thoughts in their hearts except occupation and slaughter, at that time, they were like a flood beast for my Great Qin, and they could only use the way of killing to fight hard with it, in order to keep the safety of my Great Qin, but now the Xiongnu, under the governance of Xiang Yu, seems to have a tendency to develop towards the system of my Great Qin, so it ...... My Great Qin's strategy can also be changed accordingly, so as not to cause fearless casualties. ”
