Chapter 518: Hu Hai in Action (First Update)
Fusu, Liu Wei and others are still very excited about the great success of Daqin, especially Fusu, after all, Sima Xinna built warships and recruited soldiers on his land, so such a huge victory obviously has his share of credit.
But in the past year or so, in addition to helping Liu Wei and Sun Qian put the development of Guilin County and Xiang County on the right track, Fusu has always had a thorn in his heart, that is, his younger brother Hu Hai.
Although he has been searching hard, he has never had any news, as if he has evaporated from the world, and he is still sending people to find it, and he has almost searched for all the hidden places in these three counties several times, but there is still no news of Hu Hai, and Hu Hai's matter has become an unsolved case in Daqin.
And the real situation is naturally not that Hu Hai really rose in the day and evaporated from the world, but that the place designed by the South Vietnamese people decades ago to save their lives is too hidden for ordinary soldiers to find.
And on weekdays, they all rely on a master Zhao Hu to deliver news, although the news in and out is a little slower, but Zhao Cheng and Hu Hai are quite safe to hide here.
The reason why they didn't make any action at all for more than a year was that they were actually waiting for the news of Daqin's attack on the Peacock Dynasty, and now, this news was finally sent in by Zhao Hu.
"Are you saying that this matter is the same as we predicted before, and Great Qin really attacked the land of the Peacock Dynasty?"
As soon as Zhao Hu entered this very secret place, he directly found Zhao Cheng and informed him of the news that had spread in the Great Qin Realm, of course, Hu Hai had already inquired and rushed over After hearing the news, Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng couldn't hide the excitement in their eyes, and they all asked again.
After panting and taking a sip of water, Zhao Hu took a breath evenly, and then opened his mouth to explain the cause and effect of what he had heard about this matter.
"According to the edict issued by the Great Qin Dynasty, since Han Xin, Sima Xin and Peng Yue's three-way army rushed to the Peacock Dynasty, in fact, there has been news back to Xianyang City, they are almost in a situation in the Peacock Dynasty, almost without tasting defeat, in just a few months they captured the capital of the Peacock Dynasty, and captured the monarch of the Peacock Dynasty alive, and at this time they are being imprisoned in the prison of Daqin, because this is the news sent by the Emperor of Great Qin himself, So there should be no doubt that this is true! ”
Listening to Zhao Hu's words, Zhao Cheng couldn't help but sigh slightly, and then said, "Isn't the territory of the Peacock Dynasty comparable to that of Great Qin?" Why was it so easily taken by the combined forces of Great Qin and the Xiongnu? I'm afraid this is not a good thing for us and others, the people and army of the Mauryan Dynasty must be extremely weak, otherwise how can this be? ”
Zhao Cheng originally hoped that although Great Qin won, it would be a miserable victory, even if the Peacock Dynasty was taken by Great Qin, but the anti-Qin forces were still very rampant, only in that case, if a few of them arrived in the Peacock Dynasty before they could make a difference, if the people of the Peacock Dynasty let the Great Qin's army be scared like a cat and a puppy, they couldn't do anything immediately when they arrived, right?
But Hu Hai's eyes rolled slightly, but his face did not have the same decadence as Zhao Cheng, he looked at Zhao Hu and almost asked, "What kind of achievements have these three armies made?" Besides, how did the land of the Peacock Empire, Daqin and the Xiongnu divide, have you ever found out the news? ”
The two things that Hu Hai asked were not in the notice issued by Yinggao, but Zhao Hu was also a master of intelligence work for many years, and about this war, almost everything that could be found out, whether he believed it was true or not, he had already found out about it.
And these two things, he did hear some rumors from the mouths of those who were good believers.
"I heard that this battle was mainly played by Xiang Yu and Han Xin, they from the Great Qin just opened up the territory named the Western Regions by the Great Qin Emperor to the Mauryan Dynasty, found that the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty was not very far away from the Western Regions, so they did not wait for Sima Xin and Peng Yue, they began to storm the capital, and in the end it turned out to be more than less, and took the capital of the Peacock Dynasty without waiting for Sima Xin and Peng Yue to arrive, as for how the territory is distributed, no one knows very clearly, I only know that the Western Regions gave half of the Huns, and the land of the Mauryan Empire is also one of the three, but I don't know where it is Daqin, where is the Huns, and I also heard that the emperor of Daqin only sent some officials from the Western Regions, but did not send officials to the Mauryan Dynasty, and now Han Xin and Xiang Yu have returned, and only Sima Xin and Peng Yue and others in the Peacock Dynasty are stationed with soldiers and horses. ”
After Zhao Hu said these news, Hu Hai fell into contemplation, obviously, he was analyzing the current form of the Peacock Dynasty through these news, he and Zhao Cheng have been nesting for too long in this place that can almost be regarded as a bird not, although there is no worry about eating and drinking here, and his wife Qi Yi is here to accompany him, but let Hu Hai live in such a place for a lifetime, he will never be reconciled.
From the moment he came out of Daqin's Xianyang City, the only thing he thought about was to set up his own door, and then completely defeat his brother, Yinggao, who had snatched the position of emperor from his hands, and finally take back everything that should have belonged to him.
When it comes to understanding Yinggao, Zhao Cheng knows that he is still inferior to Hu Hai, and after getting along with Hu Hai for so long, Zhao Cheng found that Hu Hai is really a young man with ideas, so he saw that Hu Hai fell into contemplation after listening to Zhao Hu's report, and Zhao Cheng did not interrupt him.
"Han Xin and Xiang Yu's team played a very big role, and the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty was very close to the Western Regions...... Han Xin and Xiang Yu have already returned to Daqin? ”
Hu Hai repeated these words several times, obviously he wanted to get something here, his brows were tightly furrowed, Zhao Cheng and Zhao Hu were already a little sleepy, especially Zhao Hu, who was already very tired, seeing that Hu Hai didn't say something for a long time, he was about to sit in his place and fall asleep.
But at this moment, Hu Hai suddenly stopped repeating that sentence, but said something else.
"In that case, I'm afraid it will be useful to prepare the ship secretly before I wait!"
This sentence, Hu Hai said that it was quite excited, and directly woke up the drowsy Zhao Hu, Zhao Cheng also widened his eyes after hearing it, looked at Hu Hai and asked, "Why is this?" Didn't you say before that it was very risky to go to sea by ship, so it was better to wait until the road from the barren land to the Mauryan Dynasty was opened and I would go from there? ”
It is true that they originally prepared the ship just in case, but now Hu Hai said that they were going to sail to the Peacock Dynasty by boat, which was a bit too risky in Zhao Cheng's opinion.
"It's true that it's a lot safer to walk from that barren land, but sir, have you ever thought that now that Daqin has found that the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty is very close to that barren land, the emperor of Daqin directly began to take the lead in developing that area, and sent officials, if we forcibly pass through there, not to mention that there are no items such as inspection and other items, even if there is, once an official who served in Xianyang City in the early years recognizes Mr. or Hu Hai, what awaits me is the end of being beheaded in Xianyang City."
Hu Hai said this sentence quite firmly, because he thought he still knew about Yinggao.
"But this is also an adventure, and taking a boat is also an adventure, why don't we take the land route, if we are really pursued by the officials of Great Qin, then half of it is the territory of the Xiongnu, how can we be captured so easily?"
Obviously, Zhao Cheng still has a lot of scruples about taking a boat, after all, when the wind and waves come, no matter how powerful you are, you will end up in the belly of the fish, and this kind of psychological pressure is unbearable for ordinary people.
"Sir, have you ever thought that the capital of the Peacock Dynasty is on the side close to the Western Regions, Xiang Yu and Han Xin found it first and attacked it, which is enough to show that when Xiang Yu and Han Xin attacked the capital, Sima Xin and Peng Yue had not yet arrived, and the territory of the Peacock Dynasty was almost the same as that of Great Qin, in such a short period of time, it was impossible for them to completely occupy the Mauryan Dynasty, so in my opinion, they must have attacked the capital and the surrounding cities, After capturing the monarch alive, he came back to hand over to the emperor of Great Qin, so that the territory of the place where he landed from the sea must not have been captured by Great Qin, and it will not be captured in the short term, because the strength of Great Qin is not enough to hold such a large Peacock Dynasty, so if I go to the Peacock Dynasty by boat, everywhere I go, I have not been captured by Daqin, and we are the appearance of the people of Great Qin, and then there will be a promising situation! ”
With such an in-depth explanation, Zhao Cheng and Zhao Hu understood Hu Hai's thoughts, and they both nodded slightly
Indeed, after arriving at the territory of the Peacock Dynasty, if they have been occupied by Great Qin, the survival situation of several of them will still be difficult, but if they arrive at a place that has not been occupied by Great Qin, their sense of existence will be very obvious, and there will be a lot of things they can do.
But it is undeniable that the ship they made by themselves is not much smaller than Daqin's warship, and the risk is still very large, which is also a problem they must consider.
"Have you ever thought that when you go to the Peacock Dynasty, you need a chart, but now we don't have a chart in our hands, how can we get it?" After thinking for a while, Zhao Cheng raised a realistic question again, if you go by land, it's okay to go wrong, at least there are southeast, northwest and northwest to distinguish it, but if you really go wrong on the sea, it will be over.
"This chart is the first hurdle we need to overcome, but this matter should still be handed over to Zhao Hu, Sima Xin left from Nanhai County before, someone in Nanhai County must know about this chart, and Emperor Daqin did not order the matter of the chart to be kept secret, and in the future, many people of Daqin will go to the Peacock Dynasty by sea, so this chart should not be difficult to get."
After finishing speaking, Hu Hai set his eyes on Zhao Hu, this matter can only be done by him, so his meaning is also crucial.
"It's not difficult to do this, Nanhai County is not far from here, but what Mr. means......"
Zhao Hu looked at Zhao Cheng as he spoke, after all, he was Zhao Cheng's subordinate, and Hu Hai and them were just a cooperative relationship, and it was Zhao Cheng who had to make the decision in the end.
This time, Zhao Cheng really thought about it for a long time, and then finally spoke: "What Hu Hai Gongzi said about this matter is indeed very reasonable, I have been hiding for so many years, I can't dodge anymore, this time, if it doesn't work, I will become benevolent!" ”
Finally, Zhao Cheng, who has always been cautious, also made this decision that seemed to be very risky, after saying this, his forehead was already sweating, and Hu Hai was also slightly relieved, he knew that this was another opportunity for himself to win, if he didn't succeed, I'm afraid his existence really didn't have much significance.
So, Zhao Hu, the big man, left their place again and began what he might be the last mission in this land, and Zhao Cheng and Hu Hai were not idle for a day, they knew that once they arrived at the territory of the Peacock Dynasty, there would be many unknown dangers waiting for them, everything was new to them, they had to prepare for all possible things in advance, otherwise they would be considered successful in reaching the Peacock Dynasty, and die in a place they don't know anything about.
Zhao Cheng and Hu Hai's plans, whether it is Fusu or Yinggao, do not know, although Fusu, Liu Wei, and Sun Qian have not stopped searching in the three counties of Lingnan, but they also know that if Hu Hai is really in a place that can be easily found by them, they probably have found Hu Hai a long time ago.
On this day, Fusu suddenly received a letter from Xianyang, the person who wrote the letter was naturally Yinggao, and this letter was different from before, it was an edict, not in the name of Yinggao personally, but in the name of Emperor Daqin.
