Chapter 423: Everything is ready
The thorns on top of the autumn festival were quickly diluted by the harvest in October. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
And just when the people in Guanzhong were cheering for the harvest, a strange army was slowly marching towards Xianyang from the north.
Wherever they passed, even the busy people would always stop what they were doing and stare at it for a long time.
If it weren't for the front of this army, a somewhat old military flag, with the big word "Qin" on it, people might still think that it was a barbarian army.
Near Xianyang, no, it should be said that the entire army in Guanzhong was almost carefully cultivated by the empire. Not to mention the experience of a hundred battles, armor and weapons are also the best in the empire.
However, the army in front of him, which is about 7,000 people, is not full of armor. Even the Changge at hand, many of them have collapsed.
When there were still four or five miles away from Xianyang City, a scout cavalry of more than 300 people blocked the way of this army.
"Excuse me, you are the general's subordinates!"
The captain at the head, although he did not dismount, his tone was quite polite, after all, although the people in front of him were strange, but the people who could be near the imperial capital were all good at fighting, so there was no need to offend.
"I haven't been back for three years, and you can't even recognize the general!" The first man in blood-colored armor, but somewhat unkempt, shouted.
The lieutenant of the scout was even more surprised, and couldn't help but look at the person in front of him carefully.
"Well, the physiognomy is somewhat familiar. However, looking at the fierce appearance, how can it look like a steppe man, well, the horse is also very similar! ”
"Bang!"
Just as the captain was thinking, a blood-colored halberd came out of nowhere, and he suddenly picked the captain off his horse.
"A little lieutenant, in front of this general, dared not even get off the horse! According to the military regulations of Daqin, you are already going to die! The unkempt sweat looked at the lieutenant and said with a sneer.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
The lieutenant turned over, and just thought about theorizing, but was interrupted by the sound of horses' hooves. A cavalry of 200 men also rushed here.
Seeing the three big characters of "Heaven and Song", Du Wei trembled, and he couldn't care about the previous embarrassment, so he immediately stood up and saluted from a distance.
"Phew!"
Song Fan, who was in silver armor, gently flicked the horse's head, looked at the man in front of him, and couldn't help but show a smile.
"Your Majesty is waiting for you, hurry back to the palace!"
Jun Jiuyou also showed a long-lost smile, looked down at his somewhat dirty armor, and said, "It's better to take a shower first!" ”
An hour later, Jun Jiuyou, who had been bathing, put on the armor that had been wiped clean, and stood respectfully in front of Ying Zheng.
"Hehe, you look like a Huns." Ying Zheng looked at Jun Jiuyou, who had changed a lot in front of him, and quipped.
"Hehe, Your Majesty, it's no wonder I'm not to blame." Jun Jiuyou also showed some yellowed teeth, and said with a smile: "That wild place, it's too hot during the day, but it can freeze to death at night. Fortunately, His Majesty summoned me, otherwise, I don't know how long I would have to live there again! ”
"What is the situation in the north?" Ying Zheng didn't continue to joke with Jun Jiuyou, put away his smile, and asked a little seriously.
"Fortunately, I didn't lose my life!" Jun Jiuyu bowed heavily and said.
"Tell me about it."
"There were more than 8,000 people in the headquarters of the last general, and within three years, there were eleven major battles and thirty-three small battles, and a total of more than 100,000 people were annihilated in the grassland. A total of more than 30 tribes of all sizes were destroyed, and more than 800 people were killed in the headquarters! ”
In the past three years, Jun Jiuyou has led more than 8,000 Heavenly Exhaustion Army, taking advantage of the time when the grassland is ownerless, and is wantonly rampant. It's almost a god to kill a god, and a demon to kill a demon. The nomadic tribes on the steppe were completely killed.
Until the end, the steppe tribes had no choice, and they were no opponent at all. We can only unite and fight against the Heavenly End Army together.
And most of the more than 800 people who lost were lost in these last few battles.
"Very good, in this way, at least for more than ten years, I will have no worries in the northern part of Great Qin!" Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction.
Listening to Ying Zheng's tone, Jun Jiuyou suddenly showed a look of surprise, and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, is the plan about to start?" ”
"The internal troubles have subsided, and Baiyue in the south has been brought under the command of the empire. With Wang Jian here, I don't worry about what problems Baiyue will have.
To the north, the steppe people no longer have the strength to go south. After two or three years, Wang Ben's new cavalry should attack the grassland!
The road of the empire has been basically paved by me, and it depends on Fusu's ......
"Then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ...... there," Jun Jiuyou showed a little inquiry.
"You don't have to tell him just yet. I don't know if there is a chance of surviving. Telling him will make him uneasy. Ying Zheng waved his hand and said.
"Whoa!"
"Go, you need to prepare as soon as possible, my time is running out. When the time comes, I will have you stationed in Lishan in the name of protecting the tomb. Perhaps I will use your power again. ”
"The last general, never give up!" Jun Jiuyou and Song Fan knelt down at the same time, and said with a hint of determination in their tones.
……
In Hu Hai's bedroom, the injured Hu Hai can only barely sit up now.
"Squeak!"
The heavy hall door was pushed open, and Zhao Gao walked in with an ugly face.
"How's it going, teacher?" Hu Hai, who was in pain, looked at Zhao Gao anxiously and asked.
Zhao Gao shook his head and said, "The information of the assassin can't be found at all......"
"Sure enough......" Hu Hai's eyes suddenly lost their brilliance. With the teacher's ability, how can the forces that have developed in the past few years not be able to find out any news! ”
"Sure enough, all this is a conspiracy of the father and son!" The strong sense of crisis made Hu Hai smash the pillow at the head of the bed angrily. The sharp pain made his already resentful face even more distorted.
Zhao Gao picked up the pillow, put it back on Hu Hai's bedside, and said, "Childe is still alive, there is still a chance!" ”
"Gongzi Lu and the others are just our tricks. Moreover, the five-year deadline is approaching, and our opportunities are approaching. ”
"That's right! Teacher, you're right! Hu Hai clenched his hand, his face turned a little colder, "We have worked hard for so many years, we must not give up in vain!" ”
"It's good that Childe can think like this!"
The night of the autumn night has a hint of coolness.
The moon god in the yin and yang stronghold, as usual, raised his head and looked at the stars in the sky. However, suddenly her expression changed.
"The emperor star is dark, your one, it's going to be bad......" beside the moon god, Concubine Yan saw it more truly than the moon god. And there is also a hint of unknown color in her eyes.
