Chapter 153: The Great Army Enters the City

The five ditches outside the south gate of Chengwu City, which were two zhang wide and more than one zhang deep, were soon filled in by tens of thousands of Chengwu people who poured out, creating a smooth road more than 100 zhang wide. The soldiers of the Jiuyuan Army, who fell off their horses and fell unconscious, or fell asleep, were carried into the city one after another!

Including those cavalrymen of the Jiuyuan Army who were still insisting on themselves on horseback, they were also carried off their horses one after another!

They couldn't get off the horse by themselves, the inner thighs and the farts and thighs that had been bumping on the horse's back were already bloody and fleshy, and the trousers on their bodies were soaked with blood and completely stuck with the blurred flesh!

Without the help of others, these cavalrymen of the Jiuyuan Army, who had been galloping for two days and three nights without sleep, would not be able to dismount themselves except for going to the toilet and even eating!

Meng Tian, who was standing in front of the battle, no people dared to help, from the banner of the word "Meng" flying behind him, these people also knew who this middle-aged general who was still standing like a mountain and sitting on horseback even though he was dusty and exhausted!

After seeing Hu Hai in military uniform walking from a distance, Meng Tian's tense face finally softened, and he couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief!

Although the unbroken Chengwu City had already made Meng Tian let go of his worries, the mountains of corpses under Chengwu City, the broken city walls, and the gunpowder smoke and bloody breath in the air all told Meng Tian what kind of great battles Chengwu City had experienced before!

At this moment, Hu Hai was really safe and sound, and the last bit of worry in Meng Tian's heart was finally let go!

Suddenly relaxed, Meng Tian suddenly rushed to the darkness in front of him, and a wave of dizziness rushed over the mountains. Extreme exhaustion fills every corner of the body! The body that was originally sitting upright on horseback shook twice before finally settling down!

I'm getting old after all!

Looking at the young and handsome little emperor who was walking like a fly, Meng Tian's eyes flashed with relief!

Ever since he got Hu Hai's letter that he wanted to lure Xiang Liang's army to come with this Chengwu as a bait, Meng Tian's mind has been in extreme tension!

At that time, even if Meng Tian had a thousand, ten thousand reasons to disagree with Hu Hai's actions, it would be useless! Because he is too far away from the emperor's place!

By the time the letter of his dissuasion was reported to Dawu, I was afraid that Xiang Liang's army had already arrived!

Meng Tian knows the urgency of the matter! He wants to know more about the situation facing Daqin today than Hu Hai! The rebellions in various parts of Great Qin and the Xiongnu barbarians in the north who are about to move, these have not yet been put in Meng Tian's eyes!

This is not only confidence in Daqin's current strength! What's more, now Hu Hai has begun to actually control the huge Great Qin! And as long as Hu Hai is still there, no matter what the grievances between his Meng clan and the Li clan are, or the disagreement with the Wang clan because of the Jiuyuan Army, and even some contradictions within the Great Qin Ying clan, they will never be exposed, which will really affect the normal operation of Great Qin!

However, if Hu Hai was really captured or killed by Xiang Liangsheng in this Chengwu City! Then Meng Tian is sure of one thing, that is, the original harmonious Great Qin will fall apart in an instant!

For the sake of the throne, the hidden contradictions between the Meng clan and the Li clan, the Wang clan and the rest of the various families and nobles in Guanzhong will explode in an instant!

The most important thing is that Meng Tian knows one thing very well, that is, if you want to talk about the most powerful family nobles in Guanzhong, it must be the clan dominated by the Ying family, but, on the other hand, among the various families and nobles in Guanzhong, the weakest strength is also the Ying clan who is a royal family!

All the strength of the Win clan is tied to the emperor!

If the emperor is here, the winning clan is dominant, and it is as stable as Mount Tai! Emperor Xu, the Great Qin Rebellion, then the Wen cannot enter the court as an official, and the martial arts cannot enlist to lead the army, the Ying clan will immediately become the weakest one among the many families and nobles in the Great Qin Pass!

At that time, for the sake of the throne, the nobles of the various families in the Great Qin Pass would inevitably make a mess, and everyone wanted to have the merit of the dragon! Daqin is falling apart, I'm afraid it's just around the corner!

Ask yourself, Meng Tian himself knows that if that time comes, the Meng clan will inevitably elect someone who is more inclined to his own clan's Ying bloodline to inherit the throne for the benefit of his own clan.

Come to think of it, the Li family, the Wang family, and the rest of the nobles will be the same!!

At that time, the deeds that the First Emperor had painstakingly built would be gone!

This is what Meng Tian, who grew up with the First Emperor since he was a child, would never want to see it no matter what!

"Meng Aiqing! Meng Aiqing! ”

The young emperor's delighted voice came from afar, waking Meng Tian up from his contemplation!

Seeing the haggard face of the happy young emperor, the gunpowder smoke on his body, and the dirty boots, Meng Tian's full of complaints and dissatisfaction dissipated in an instant!

He knew very well why the little emperor acted like this!

What he did was not to wipe out the biggest rebel force that is now raging in the territory of Great Qin in one fell swoop! The idea is good, but the consequences of acting in a hurry are equally severe!

But what else can he say now?

Meng Tian regained his mind and struggled to turn over from his horse and salute Hu Hai!

As soon as his body moved, Meng Tian found that his entire lower body had completely lost consciousness, and then he fell down towards Ma Xun in front of him!

Meng Tian's sudden fall suddenly made everyone exclaim in unison! The guards who followed behind Meng Tian were the same as those soldiers of the Jiuyuan Army, they were also at the end of the crossbow, barely supporting and not fainting, and when they saw the general falling, they wanted to turn over and dismount to catch Meng Tian in a hurry.

"Puff puff!"

With a few muffled sounds, several of Meng Tian's personal guards immediately fell to the ground!

Meng Tian was the fastest moving Long Xuan by Hu Hai's side, and ran to Meng Tian's landing place at the moment he landed, at this time it was impossible for Long Xuan to pick up Meng Tian, if he wanted to pick it up, it was very likely that the two of them would fall to the ground together! That is probably not much better than Meng Tian falling directly to the ground! In desperation, Long Xuan fell directly to the ground and cushioned where Meng Tian landed!

Meng Tianzai's body that fell to the ground slammed into Long Xuan's body on the ground!

Long Xuan, who was pressed by Meng Tiansheng's body, involuntarily snorted in pain!

Meng Tian's sudden fall to the ground frightened Hu Hai into the sky.

The tragic situation of the soldiers of the Jiuyuan Army who fainted on the ground just now, Hu Hai has already seen it! And Meng Tian, who took the lead and galloped with these soldiers, naturally couldn't be much better! Meng Tian is a great general, yes, but he is not an iron man!

What's more, Meng Tian was much older than those young Jiuyuan soldiers!

Now, Xiang Liang's army didn't eat it, they all ran away! Looking at the appearance of these cavalry of the Jiuyuan Army, in such a fierce world, it is definitely impossible for a horse to support them to gallop to this Chengwu City without sleep!

But now these cavalry of the Jiuyuan Army are all one person and one horse, so the answer is self-evident! How many horses did Meng Tian lose along the way? How many elite soldiers of the Jiuyuan Army were lost along the way?

Hu Hai doesn't know yet!

If Meng Tian made a mistake at this time, then his plan to take a risk this time was really "stealing chickens and not losing a handful of rice", and he lost his wife and lost his soldiers!

Fortunately, Long Xuan moved fast enough and acted as a human cushion on the ground!

"Meng Aiqing? Meng Aiqing? A few dragon guards who were following Hu Hai hurriedly said that Meng Tian was lifted from Long Xuan's body and placed on a stretcher that had been prepared a long time ago! Hu Hai knelt on one leg and called softly.

"The old minister has seen Your Majesty!"

Meng Tian was a little prostrated because he was too tired and exposed to the sun, and he had already woken up again after he fell! Hearing Hu Hai's shout, he struggled to lie on the stretcher and hissed!

"Meng Aiqing doesn't have to be polite! No need to be polite! ”

"Bring all the soldiers of the Jiuyuan Army into the city, so that they can be saved!" Seeing that Meng Tian was fine, Hu Hai's heart relaxed, and he hurriedly ordered loudly! After speaking, he turned his head and said to Meng Tian: "Meng Aiqing has a good rest first, and then I will talk about it tomorrow!" ”

Meng Tian had already seen that Hu Hai was okay at this moment, and the big stone in his heart had landed, although there were still many doubts in his heart, he still nodded, stopped speaking, and fell asleep after a while!

As all the soldiers and horses of the Jiuyuan Army were brought into the city, the originally crowded Chengwu City suddenly became even more crowded!

When Meng Tian saw Hu Hai again, it was already night!

When Long Xuan came in to report to Meng Tian and asked to see him, Hu Hai really checked the results of the soldiers of the Jiuyuan Army and the soldiers of the Qin Army who had just been counted in the battle to defend the city! And, of course, the counted casualties of the Xiangliang rebels!

Meng Tian's army in Julu totaled nearly 200,000 people! Among them, the captured Li Zuoche army had a total of 160,000 people! Removing some old and weak in the middle, Meng Tian just got a strong army of 120,000 people from Li Zuoche!

Although these sturdies have only been trained for a month!

The Jiuyuan Army, which followed Meng Tian to the north to Julu to quell Li Zuoche's rebellion, had a total of more than 80,000 people! Among them, there were 40,000 cavalry and 40,000 foot soldiers! In a battle with Li Zuoche, the Jiuyuan Army lost more than 20,000 people! Meng Tian obeyed Hu Hai's orders and stationed 5,000 Yuan troops in the three official warehouses of Linzi, Jiaodong and Langya! Therefore, Meng Tian was in Julu's army of nearly 200,000, and there were only 40,000 Jiuyuan troops!

Then, Meng Tian obeyed Hu Hai's order to go south from Julu! Before heading south, Meng Tian followed Hu Hai's edict and left 20,000 troops in Julu, 30,000 in Linzi, and 30,000 in Handan!

The 80,000 troops stationed in the three places are basically the soldiers of the Jiuyuan Army as leading generals at all levels! All are led by Pang Ai, the grandson of Pang Tong, who is now the county guard of Julu!

Of course, one of the biggest reasons why so many soldiers are left in these three places is to cooperate with the Win 2 who has now tracked down the ghost-faced dead soldiers from the Jixia School Palace all the way to Handan!

Zhao Xie, who was rescued, colluded with the Jixia School Palace, which suddenly appeared and hid in the shadows with many dead soldiers, how could Hu Hai ignore it?
