Chapter 273: The World Is One

When the news of Xiang Yu's death came, the Chu people were all sad, and in Wucheng, Jiangdong, hundreds of disabled old soldiers were killed by themselves. Xiang Yu's death also frustrated the only reliance of the Chu people, and the remaining fighting spirit quickly dissolved. On the ground of thousands of miles, the cavalry of the Qin State galloped vertically and horizontally, the Heishui battle flag fluttered in the wind, and the county magistrates who passed through were all neck with seals, and went out of the city to surrender.

The only one who encountered resistance was Pengcheng, the royal city of Chu State, and Yu Qi defended the city to the death, and a southward army with a high city pool deeper than Mengshi swirled. Meng Shi ordered the army to besiege Pengcheng, and sent someone to inform him of Xiang Yu's death, and the army in the city was suddenly in turmoil, and the people were panicked.

Yu Qi swore not to surrender, and killed the envoy sent by the Qin State to persuade him to surrender, so that all the men in the city put on armor and went into battle, swearing to live and die with Pengcheng.

But Yu Qi's loyalty to Xiang Yu did not infect his subordinates, Xiang Yu was dead, and the originally united Chu army was suddenly disheartened, and the generals began to plan for their own way out.

Accompanying Yu Qi, an old guy, to defend the city was undoubtedly self-defeating, and the generals led by the general Cao Qi suddenly attacked, tied up Yu Qi, who was patrolling the city defense, and ordered the city gate to be opened to welcome the Qin army.

Meng Shi saw that the gate of Pengcheng suddenly opened, and the head of the city shouted surrender, although he suspected that he was deceitful, but he also knew that the opportunity could not be lost, so he immediately ordered three thousand horses, flew into the city, and quickly took over the defense of the palace of the king of Chu. Soon, a large force of infantry poured in, occupied various important places, disarmed the Chu soldiers, and expelled them back to the camp and imprisoned.

When he saw Yu Qi being tied up with anger on his face, Meng Shi was so frightened that his jaw was about to fall, and he hurriedly stepped forward to loosen his tie. Others may not know the relationship between Han Xin and this old man who is not amazing, how can he, as Han Xin's confidant, not know, to know that this can be his boss's father-in-law, the future lord of the country, Han Xin is the most protective of his shortcomings, if he knows that he abuses this old man so much, wouldn't he be good-looking.

Meng Shi served tea and apologized, but Yu Qi didn't eat it, and still scolded there, wanting to die to become loyal and famous. Meng Shi apologized at first, but the leader of the dog blood who was scolded by him couldn't help but get angry. He is also a short-tempered person, and when the bull's temper comes up, he immediately becomes angry. Let people take the filthy cloth, as long as Yu Qi scolds with his mouth, he will stuff it into his mouth, and then pull it out when it is quiet, and then scold and stuff it. After doing this a few times, Yu Qi didn't dare to scold, so he had to stare at Meng Shi fiercely with his eyes.

After getting the news of Pengcheng's success, Han Xin, who had just finished the war and was resting in place, immediately rushed to Pengcheng with his personal guards.

After arriving in Pengcheng, Han Xin did not rush into the city, but unexpectedly set up a palace outside the city, and all things big and small were handled in the palace. Emperor Qin's puzzling attitude also caused a lot of speculation, and there were rumors with ulterior motives that the Qin army was ready to slaughter the city to vent his anger, so Emperor Qin refused to enter the city.

Just when the city was panicking, the rumors were quickly dismantled, and in the early morning of the fifth day, the people of Pengcheng were surprised to find that there were countless more chariots outside their city.

In fact, strictly speaking, these vehicles are not really tanks. According to the Zhou system, a military chariot drawn by four horses was called a ride, and it was equipped with a royal hand and two crossbowmen. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the strength of each vassal state was mostly described by the number of "multiplication", for example, the Qi State was known as the country of ten thousand times, and the second-class Lu State was the country of a thousand times.

And this chariot is obviously a makeshift patchwork, many of them are brand new, and they look extraordinary, but in fact, anyone with a discerning eye knows that they are fragile and fancy. But apparently the Qin army did not intend to put these "shows" into the battlefield.

In order to fulfill his promise to Yu Miaoyi to marry her "with the gift of Empress Qiancheng", Han Xin urgently transferred a large number of old chariots from Qi and the Central Plains, and at the same time, the military camps in various places started work day and night, so he drove out the "Qiancheng" in just five days.

When the mighty convoy drove into the city, the whole Pengcheng was boiling. The people's fears were swept away and turned into great celebrations. Chu people are so good at rhetoric, and they have a romantic spirit in their bones, which will give birth to the great poet Qu Yuan. Originally, the Qin State was a synonym for conquest in their eyes, but now it has a little more tenderness. On the battlefield, the Qin people did not conquer the hearts of the Chu people through swords and halberds, but let Han Xin achieve it in such a way.

The huge welcoming procession sailed to the Yu Mansion in the city, but the Yu relatives who were confined to the mansion closed the door, making Han Xin, the dignified emperor, eat a closed door. Han Xin was unmoved, and ordered the convoy to surround Yufu, constantly blowing and playing music, while Han Xin stood outside the door in person, regardless of his identity.

For a whole day and a night, Han Xin did not move outside the door, not dripping water. This made Mengshi and the other Qin generals angry, and threatened to slaughter the city every day to vent their anger in order to repay the Chu people's insult to the emperor of Qin.

This made the nobles of the Chu State who moved the city frightened, and countless people entered the Yu Mansion from the back door every day to persuade them. Yu Qi was just a quick moment in the end, and he also knew in his heart that the Chu State was completely finished, and as long as he was attached to the Qin State, he could maintain the wealth and status of the family. It's just because of this anger in my heart, so I refused to bow my head and compromise, and today I saw that Han Xin had given enough sincerity, so I also went downhill, opened the door, and agreed to Han Xin's marriage proposal in front of him.

Han Xin, who had to return to the beautiful woman, immediately canonized Yu Miaoyi as the lady of Chi Guo, and was the queen of Yitong. His father Yu Qi is the Marquis of Xiayang, and his brother Yu is the internal history of the child, and many people in the clan have rewards. At the same time, he ordered that all officials in Chu should be pardoned for their crimes, and all old things should not be blamed.

Ji Bu, who was fighting the southern front, led the last army of Chu to retreat to Jiangdong in a hurry after hearing that Xiang Yu had died, and Peng Yue led his army to follow. In May, after joining Zhao Wuji's army in the south, he defeated the Chu army in the Battle of Jiashui. Most of the Chu army was dispersed, and Ji Bu saw that the general trend had gone, so he drew his sword and killed himself, and Jiangdong was peaceful.

Wu Rui, the king of Hengshan, saw that the Qin army's unification of the world was irresistible, so he asked for surrender and surrendered to a county. Han Xin happily promised, crowned him as the Marquis of Guiyi, and moved back to Xianyang to live for a long time. The king of Linjiang survived but refused to surrender, occupying the three counties of Nanjun, Changsha and Qianzhong in a vain attempt to split the land and rule it, but was broken by Peng Yue led by Peng Yue of the west, and died in the chaos, and the south was peaceful.

In September, Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue, saw that the Qin State was already prosperous, and there was no hope for him to cut the land. In addition, as I get older, I miss my homeland very much, so I beg to return to my hometown. Han Xin approved it, named him Bai Guihou, and allowed him to return to his hometown to guard the spirits of his parents.

At this point, the Qin Empire, which had fallen apart for five years, once again became a unified empire. Han Xin led a hundred officials to the east to enshrine Mount Tai, comforted the ancestors, respected the first emperor as Emperor Taizu, and Han Xin inherited the Ying family in the name of his heir.

In December of the second year of Daxing, there was heavy snow in northern Xinjiang, and countless livestock froze to death. In order to survive, a large number of Lou Fu and Xiongnu tribes went south to plunder the border people of Qin State privately, and the people in Qin State were suddenly angry. In the name of the army's heart, Li Zuoche wrote a letter requesting the elimination of the two kingdoms of Loufu and the Xiongnu in one fell swoop, and he was allowed to do so.

In February of the following year, the Qin State launched a large-scale northern expedition in the name of the breach of contract by the Lou Annoying Xiongnu. The general Wang Jing rode 80,000 horses, went out of Shangjun, and attacked the Xiongnu through Jiuyuan County; General Zhao Yi led 40,000 light horses, out of the upper valley, and swept from the north to the west; Han Xin personally led the 120,000 Chinese army, went out of Yanmen, and attacked Lou Fu in a big way.

Han Xin's army fought several battles with Kun Mo, the king of Lou Fu, and Lou Fu was defeated, and Kun Mo led the remnants of the army to flee north in a hurry, but was stopped by Zhao Yi's department. After a big battle, the whole army of Lou Fu was annihilated, Kun Mo lost his trace in the chaos, his life and death were unknown, and Lou Fu was destroyed.

The Xiongnu saw that the Qin army could not resist it, so they led their troops to move north to Beihai, completely abandoning the grassland that had survived for hundreds of years. The Qin State has obtained the grassland, in order to effectively control such a piece of land that is not easy to garrison, Han Xin set up a metropolitan protectorate in Longcheng, with a garrison of 60,000 troops, with Wang Jing as the metropolitan protector and Zhao Yi as the capital protector of the Chinese army. He also moved more than 100,000 people from the Kwantung region to the north to enrich the local population.

In March of the fourth year, the military exploits of Liaodong led by the great Shang Xin drama broke the country built by Han Guang, the king of Yan, and the army went thousands of miles south to get the land of Haidong, and set it up as the two counties of Lelang and Fuyu. Han Xin sent 5,000 boatmen to explore the east by sea ship, and half a month later saw a large island, the inhabitants of which were ignorant and unopened, and there were more than ten small countries. Seeing the Qin army floating on the sea, they were immediately frightened, and they all turned around and ran.

After the Qin army landed, they returned to the east and easily captured a city. He also sent people to ask for help from the country, and obtained 30,000 reinforcements, so he destroyed more than ten countries built by the Turen, and the Qin State set up two counties of Pinghai and Haidong here.

At this point, the world has returned to one, the soldiers have gradually stopped, and the four seas have been leveled.

In the forty-ninth year of Daxing, the emperor died, and the crown prince Han Che succeeded to the throne.
