The following is the text of the novel (author: Huaxia Jiuzhou) provided for you, please enjoy!

Although I have crossed many mountains and rivers along the way, it is the first time I have seen such a steep terrain like the river in front of me. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

On both sides of the galloping river, there are steep cliffs with strange rocks more than ten zhang high. The swift river constantly washes the cliffs on both sides, splashes the fluffy and confused white mist, and flashes a confused luster in the sun.

This should be a picturesque beauty, but only thinking about how to build the road and how to cross the big river, but there is no appreciation at all.

The remaining dozen or so brothers of Longwei Mansion have already explored upstream and downstream along the river shoreline, wanting to see if they can find a shoal to cross this big river directly, so that there is a place to build a wooden bridge, right?

None of this matters, the important thing is that the avenue must turn from here. It doesn't matter if you bend, the important thing is that you don't know how many brothers will be buried in this barren place.

The rushing river suddenly seemed to have begun to show a hint of redness.

"General, General!"

An urgent call came from the mountainside behind him.

Meng Kuo turned his head and saw Captain Huben Chen Xian sweating profusely and crawling over.

A bad premonition instantly surfaced in my heart.

"Will... General, the brother of the Dragon Guard Mansion back... It's back. Meng Kuo strode up to the panting Chen Xian.

"All back?" Helping Chen Xian up, Meng Kuo raised his eyebrows and asked in a deep voice.

"Those who went upstream to explore the path have not come back, and the brothers who went to the downstream to explore the path have all returned......" Speaking of this, Chen Xian's words came to an abrupt end.

Meng Kuo's heart tightened.

"The two brothers were bitten by poisonous insects, and they were already halfway through... It's already not going to work. Chen Xian's voice was low.

At this moment, the camp at the foot of the mountain suddenly boiled.

Meng Kuo and Chen Xian glanced at each other, pulled their feet and ran down the mountain.

Haven't arrived at camp yet. Fang Tao, another tiger lieutenant, hurried out. When Lao Yuan saw Meng Kuo, he shouted loudly: "General, there is a messenger from Shu County!" ”

Hearing that it was just a messenger, Meng Kuo's heart that had been holding on suddenly relaxed.

……

"Leader the army and return to Shu County!"

It was a simple letter, and there was even a large ink stain on the edge of the letter. Looking down at the ink stains, the wide pupils shrank. In the lower right corner of the newspaper is a small bright red stamp.

The generals above the rank of captain of Daqin may not be able to write, but there will definitely be no one who does not know this little seal letter.

This is the seal that Emperor Daqin II carried with him. Except for the seal hanging around the emperor's waist, it is absolutely impossible for there to be a second party such a seal in this world.

The letter in the lower right corner has clearly told Meng Kuo that this seemingly simple letter was written by Emperor Hu Hai of Great Qin.

The scribbled handwriting shows that the emperor's mood must have fluctuated greatly when he wrote these six words. The big ink stain on the edge of the letter. It can be clearly seen that this is the ink stain caused by throwing down the brush after writing.

Then this fluctuation will definitely not be joy, but anger.

The messenger who delivered the letter was a person from the Chengfu of Shu County, and he galloped for two days and one night in a row to catch up with Meng Kuo. Have gone down to rest. Meng Kuo already knew that this letter, which could be said to be an edict, was actually transferred from Longxi to Shu County, and then the messenger hurriedly relayed it all the way to this hand.

The matter is so urgent, obviously there is a situation that I don't know.

Early the next morning. The remaining army of less than 50,000 people marched south, and set off along the avenue paved by countless robes and bodies, and began to return to Shu County.

Four days later, Meng Kuo's army returning to Shu County encountered the five guards of the Longwei Mansion who had traveled south from Xianyang and wore golden waist plates.

"Meng Kuo, bring all the remains of the dead Tiger Ben Army and the people back to me quickly, the remains of a fallen warrior are missing, I want your head!"

A few words, but it made Meng Kuo's whole body cold.

Especially when Meng Kuo learned that these five guards of the Longwei Mansion, who were always by the emperor's side, had been on the road for seven days and seven nights in a row, and galloped south from Xianyang all the way down to deliver the edict, Meng Kuo knew that he might have misunderstood the emperor's meaning.

Meng Kuo is not too stupid after all, but he thinks right.

The letter that Hu Hai received in the Bagong that day was Hu Hai, who secretly reported the situation of the southward army of Mengkuo to Hu Hai in the charter of Shu County. Originally, as a county charter, there was no power to directly send the emperor to the emperor.

But. Hu Hai summoned the county guards, county lieutenants, and county supervisors of all counties in the world to gather in Xianyang to perform affairs, and after the daily affairs of each county were led by the county officials, the charter naturally had this power.

Shu County is responsible for the grain, grass and baggage of the lone army that goes south on this road. Every time a person carrying a heavy load returned, he brought back a part of the situation of the army going south. Originally, Mo Cheng, the county guard of Shu County, also knew about the situation of Mengkuo's army, but he always thought that it was the emperor's order. Therefore, Hu Hai did not mention Mo Cheng, so he would not question the emperor's will in any other way, but did his best to maintain the logistics and supply of Mengkuo's army.

Mo Cheng left Shu County and went to Xianyang with the county lieutenant and county supervisor. The logistical supply burden of Mengkuo's army fell on the head of the charter.

However, after the official in charge of escorting supplies returned this time, he inadvertently told the situation of the sharp reduction of Mengkuo's army. Coupled with the several dead soldiers of the Longwei Mansion who returned to Shu County with the heavy soldiers of Shu County, they made the charter feel the seriousness of the situation.

However, the original idea of the charter was only because the dead soldiers of the Longwei Mansion were damaged in the process of going south. And the weight of the Longwei Mansion in the emperor's heart is very clear. If he continued to pretend to be deaf and dumb, he was worried that he would find out if the emperor thoroughly investigated the damage of the dead in Longwei Mansion in the future, so the charter reported the situation he knew to Hu Hai in a red letter.

Naturally, he would not have thought about the consequences of his cowardice.

When Hu Hai saw the letter of the charter, he once again felt the stupidity of the Qin people. Silly and cute Qin people. At the same time, deep self-blame began to fill Hu Hai's body. He knew that the nearly 20,000 tiger soldiers and people who were buried in the land were just because of a hasty and vague order.

He only knew about the casualties of the Mengkuo army last month, but he didn't know that the exact casualty figure of the Mengkuo army was now almost more than 30,000.

His original intention was to let Meng Kuo lead an army of 50,000 tigers to explore the road, and then escort a few old people in the farm to see if they could find wild rice seeds of Vietnamese rice, bring them back to Daqin to cultivate them and plant them in Daqin, and build roads to prepare for the future.

This road construction was not the main purpose, and if it was not possible, he thought that Meng Kuo would report the difficulties to himself. And Meng Kuo has not had any news coming, and Hu Hai has always thought that Meng Kuo is going very well, but let Mo Cheng, the county guard of Shu County, be responsible for the logistics supply of Meng Kuo's army.

However, he never imagined that Mengkuo's 80,000-strong army would have been building roads for more than a year, building a strict road all the way south.
