Hu Hai was summoned to Li Xin at the Suzaku Army camp in Brownstone.

Even after the cabinet issued a notice that the Son of Heaven had stopped in Handan City on his way to the north, Hu Hai did not live in the Dune Palace where the First Emperor had died, as most people thought, nor did he enter the residence prepared for him by Shou Luoyi of Handan County, but still stopped in the Suzaku Army camp in Brownstone.

At the same time, all the villages in the vicinity of Handan Iron Yard for dozens of miles were also relocated to other places by Hu Hai's edict. After the surrounding people were relocated, the Handan Iron Yard and its surrounding dozens of miles were set up as military forbidden places by Hu Hai's edict. 20,000 Vermilion Bird Army and 10,000 Xuanwu Army were stationed around Handan Iron Field.

Li Xin traveled all the way south from Heilongjiang County to Handan to meet Hu Hai.

From the 53rd year of the Great Qin calendar to leave Xianyang to lead the Pingyi army to the present, Li Xin has been in Heilongjiang County for six full years. This is also the first time in the past six years that Li Xin has met Hu Hai, the Holy Son of Heaven who gave him the second spring.

Of course, it's not that Li Xin doesn't want to meet Hu Hai, and it's not because of inconvenient transportation, the five galloping roads from Jicheng have now been repaired to Heilongjiang, and they are no longer as difficult as before. The key is that the distance between Heilongjiang County and Xianyang and Guanzhong is too far. Even if the road is repaired, even if there are horses to travel, it is impossible to rush from Heilongjiang City to Xianyang City for several months.

Months of hard work, back and forth, more than half a year has passed.

As the commander of the Pingyi Army, it is not that the army cannot function without Li Xin, but that the Pingyi Army has basically not stopped the process of exploring northward in the past six years. Although the dispatch was all scout squads, there were no large armies advancing. However, Li Xin, as the chief general of the Pingyi Army, can be said to be the busiest and hardest general among the fourteen legions of Great Qin.

At the beginning of June, the Guilin Army and the South China Sea Fleet marched westward and swept through the indigenous people of the Indochina Peninsula, while the Jiuyuan Army and the Pingyi Army also marched north from Heilongjiang County, the easternmost county and Jiuyuan County, the westernmost part of Northern Qin.

The task of Feng Zheng and Yu Zi was to sweep the Indochina Peninsula, to be precise, to explore the way, and clean up the natives on the Indochina Peninsula by the way, so as to facilitate the migration of the people of Great Qin; The task of Shima and Li Xin was to completely sweep away the natives of the Siberian Plain further north of the Great Qin and find suitable places for the people to set up settlements and even cities.

Access to Siberia is obviously time-limited.

Hu Hai chose the June day. The time given to Shima and Li Shin to go north was only four months at most. By the end of August at the latest, the Pingyi Army and the Jiuyuan Army that entered the Siberian Plain would have to go back, no matter how far they had penetrated into the Siberian Plain.

If winter comes early, then both Shibu and Li Xin must leave the Siberian Plain and return to Jiuyuan and Heilongjiang before the heavy snow falls.

This is an edict that Hu Hai ordered Hei Bingtai to give to the two of them before Shima and Li Xin set off for Jiuyuan and Heilongjiang. It was also the most severely worded edict.

How terrible the winter in the Siberian plains, especially after the snowfall, is clear to all the people of Daqin. Hu Hai didn't want his two legions of hundreds of thousands of troops to be frozen to death on the Siberian plain.

Shima and Li Xin naturally did not dare to disobey Hu Hai's orders. Therefore, when the snow on the Siberian Plain had just begun to fall, the army had already led the army to return south.

Li Xin had returned to Heilongjiang County a month and a half earlier, and then rushed to Handan to meet with him in accordance with Hu Hai's edict. As for Shima, he had already led the army to arrive at the Jiuyuan Fortress more than twenty days ago.

The big tent of brownstone has now become a temporary camp for Hu Hai.

"Old minister Li Xin, see His Majesty the Holy Son of Heaven! Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live! ”

Li Xin, whose face was covered with dust and frost, walked into the big tent under the leadership of Long Yu, and saw Hu Hai, who was leaning over to check the giant map of Daqin with his back to the tent door, kneeling on one knee and shouting with a slight trill.

Although it's just a back. Although the person with his back to him was just wearing an ordinary black robe. But Li Xin seemed to suddenly see the majestic back he had seen many years ago when he was young.

Then the two backs blended together perfectly in an instant. The original feeling of gratitude and awe in Li Xin's confidence suddenly increased a few different feelings of familiarity and closeness.

Hu Hai, who was lying on the map, didn't reply when he heard Li Xin's shouting, and said with a slight smile: "Li Aiqing, come, paste the map drawn by Aiqing on the north this time, and paste it for me to see." ”

There is a bit of easy-going closeness and affection in the words.

If there were someone else in this big tent at this moment, then I would definitely think that the two of them met often, and often so. to be so casual. I'm afraid no one would have thought that the two of them hadn't seen each other for six years.

As for Li Xin, who was kneeling on one knee, when he heard Hu Hai's words, he obviously lost his mind for a moment.

Stationed in Heilongjiang County for six years, he did not meet the Holy Son of Heaven Hu Hai, the Supreme Second Emperor of Great Qin, for six years. If Li Xin is not a little worried, then it can only be said that Li Xin's nerves are too big and his head is lacking tendons.

Although Great Qin is said to be a country governed by law, as long as there is a day when the Great Qin Emperor exists, then it will still be ruled by man. Rule. It also represents the emperor's personal preferences and likes and dislikes, and determines whether any minister in the court or anyone in Great Qin will rise to prominence or fall into hell.

As the commander of the first army with heavy troops. Among the more than ten legions of Great Qin, Li Xin alone has not been recalled to Xianyang for six years. For the rest of Xianyang, where even the main general of the White Tiger Army, who was stationed in Shache City, the westernmost part of Great Qin, personally led the army to Xianyang in the battle for the name "Royal" three years ago, only Li Xin's Pingyi Army was the ranking battle in which the adjutant general Gan Mao led an army of 10,000 to participate.

As for Li Xin himself, at that time he was personally leading the army to encircle and suppress the natives near Lake Baikal.

Suddenly summoned by Hu Hai this time, it is impossible to say that Li Xin is not a little worried. After all, Li Xin knew very well that it was completely Hu Hai's grace that he could lead an army, and if Hu Hai hadn't given him the opportunity, then he could only be a Longxi general if he did more in his life.

Because of this, at this moment, Hu Hai was not pretentious at all, and was completely easy-going and close from the heart, which instantly reassured the apprehensive Li Xin.

If Hu Hai deliberately treated him with courtesy or affection, then it is estimated that Li Xin would be even more apprehensive.

"The last will obey!"

Li Xin put away the stirring thoughts in his heart, took out the map drawn from his arms, and then handed it to Long Hong, who was standing on the side, and Long Hong pasted it on the giant map of Daqin in front of Hu Hai.

After a while, the map of Daqin, which was originally blank above Heilongjiang County, became vivid.

Rivers, mountains, and lakes are clearly marked. In particular, Lake Baikal and the Baikal Mountains, which originate on the western shore of Lake Baikal, are of great interest to Huhai, and there are as many as three tributaries that eventually empties into the Lena River in the Arctic Ocean.

However, this newly pasted mini-map is a little different, that is, there are dots in some key parts.

That little point Hu Hai knew that it was not a river, but a place marked by the Mo craftsmen who followed Li Xin and thought it was suitable as a settlement or even a city building point.

"Li Aiqing, can you bring back all those natives?"

"Back to Your Majesty, because there have been scouts who have already marked the places where the indigenous people live in various places, so this time the army palace in the north captured nearly 50,000 indigenous people of all ethnic groups, and all of them have been brought back to Heilongjiang City."

"Good. Now that I've returned this time, Li Aiqing will accompany me on a journey. Xianyang, you haven't returned for several years. It's time to go back and see your relatives in Fuchu. ”

"Your Majesty...... Minister, obey the order! ”

When Li Xin heard Hu Hai's words, his heart sank suddenly, is the Holy Son of Heaven going to remove himself from the position of the commander of the army? Although he was worried, Li Xin knew that there was basically no possibility of changing the things decided by the emperor.

"Where do you want to go?" Hu Hai looked at Li Xin, who was lost and depressed, and said with a smile, "I asked you to go back to Xianyang for the New Year, and then I have important tasks to hand over to you to level the army." ”

"Huh!? Old minister, thank Your Majesty the Holy Son of Heaven for your grace! ”

When Li Xin heard Hu Hai's words, his old face suddenly became hot, and he hurriedly bowed down and said.

"Du Teng's kid has been in the Western Regions long enough, and after a year, you will move the Pingyi Army west to take over the White Tiger Army's garrison in the Western Regions. As for the defense of Heilongjiang and other northeastern counties, they will all be handed over to Xu Chuang's Qinglong Army. ”

Hu Hai's eyes followed the map, but his mouth had already solved the doubts in Li Xin's heart.

Of course, Hu Hai didn't say it, it was good for the 100,000 troops of the Pingyi Army to move westward, but it was definitely not to replace Du Teng's White Tiger Army stationed in the Western Regions County.

……

On November 20, the 59th year of the Great Qin calendar, Hu Hai, the second emperor of Great Qin, the Holy Son of Heaven, under the escort of the Pingyi general Li Xin, left Handan County in a light car and entered Julu County, and hundreds of thousands of people in Julu County spontaneously gathered on both sides of the avenue to welcome the Holy Son of Heaven of Great Qin.

After staying in Julu for two days, Hu Hai turned to Taiyuan, preparing to return from Taiyuan to Shangdang, Hedong and finally to Xianyang from Hanguguan. Because the people are so enthusiastic, Hu Hai is full of empty alleys everywhere he goes. In order to be able to catch a glimpse of the Son of Heaven, countless people helped the old and the young to travel hundreds of miles from the neighboring counties that Huhai would not pass through.

In the end, for the sake of Hu Hai's safety, the 100,000 soldiers of the construction corps who were building the Yellow River embankment in Shangdang put down the tools in their hands and temporarily acted as a pro-army of the emperor.

This helpless move was unexpected, allowing Hu Hai to collect the 100,000 Chu troops of the construction corps. This was a gain that Hu Hai had never expected, after all, the construction corps that was not equipped with weapons was originally used to maintain order, just because Hu Hai did not want to mobilize the nearby Vermilion Bird Army and Xuanwu Army.

On December 25, the 59th year of the Great Qin calendar, five days before Chinese New Year's Eve, when the snowflakes were falling, when Hu Hai returned from his northern tour and entered Xianyang City, he suddenly found that the people of Xianyang, who were crowded with people, did not know when they had already braved the cold wind and spontaneously waited quietly on both sides of the street. Just to welcome him back.

There is a cloud of historical data: what the people want, nothing more than that! (To be continued)
