Chapter Seventy-Five: Morning Dew
The autumn wind blew, the trumpet sounded, and the thick sound spread throughout the city and beyond.
After more than 20 years, the Korean military flag has finally been planted on this land again.
In the land of Hanoi, at this moment, the Qin army has all retreated, and the passage for the coalition army to march has been opened.
From Yedi to Hanoi, from Daliang to Xingkou, through Xinzheng to Chenggao, the Qin army was scattered, it was difficult to effectively block, the troops of the Five Nations Alliance gathered from all over the place, and finally gathered in Yewang.
100,000 Baijia troops were stationed in Yewang, and it was almost winter at the moment, Bai Yifei was standing on the high wall, and there was a bustling sound in his ears.
He held a wine bottle in his hand, a pot of wine on the city wall, and the faint sound of sacrifice words from the altar in the distance.
All countries joined forces, sacrificed to the emperor, crusaded against the tyrannical Qin, and made an alliance with blood.
As the crown prince of South Korea, Han An is a participant in this collaboration. In order to expand his influence among the princes, he actively participated in this alliance.
However, Bai Yifei was not interested, looking at the scenery in the distance and tasting the wine in the cup.
"Master Hou is really interested!"
A somewhat flirtatious voice made Bai Yifei's eyes shift from the beautiful scenery in front of him to the other side.
"General Zhao is done?"
Zhao's army attacked the city, Bai Yifei didn't see Zhao Shuang's shadow, and now that he suddenly appeared, Bai Yifei couldn't help but joke.
As a man in the night, Bai Yiwei knows very well how important the power in the darkness is. The intelligence of the clothed guest, in the world of the seven countries, there has recently been another force hidden in the shadows.
This force was newly created, but it was extremely hidden, and intelligence showed that its leader was Zhao Shuang in front of him.
"The scenery in front of Hou Ye is not very good, why is he so fascinated?"
The army rises, the killing is booming, the mountains and rivers are discolored, and everything in front of you is shrouded in a slaughter.
The blood-coloured, freshly slaughtered land, looks so ominous.
"For hundreds of years, blood and killing were the norm in this world, and they were naturally beautiful."
Bai Yifei said a word, which made Zhao Shuang stunned.
This Hou Ye, drinking blood like elixir, really made Zhao Shuang a little dumbfounded.
"Spring is born and autumn is killed, and there are always four times. Hou Ye was immersed in the solemnity of the autumn killing, but don't forget, after that, there was the scene of the destruction of everything in winter. β
Bai Yifei turned his head, and Zhao Shuang's meaningful words echoed in his ears, and he smiled slightly.
"Ben Hou recently heard an interesting rumor."
After the oath, it is the time for the coalition forces to march and the time to divide the troops, and such a big movement can no longer be hidden, no matter how secret it is.
"Pang Xuan wants to lead a partial division and make a detour to attack Qin?"
"That's right!"
Zhao Shuang didn't have to hide it, because soon, the generals of all countries would know.
Bai Yifei smiled and lifted the wine bottle in his hand.
"This is the secret you've been hiding?"
"Now this secret no longer needs to be hidden."
Zhao Shuang's cheerfulness made Bai Yifei pick up the wine bottle and take a sip of wine and ask a question.
"Just, why is there no South Korea?"
Zhao Shuang smiled and did not answer. Bai Yifei saw it in his eyes, and soon felt a little bored and smiled slightly.
"Yes, South Korea's national elementary school has a small capital. Pang Xuan told him in advance, and King Han would hesitate, and in the end it was more likely to maintain the current situation, but there would be a little more possibility of leaking. β
"After all, it is the most stable to follow the main forces of the alliance of all countries."
Although Bai Yifei was laughing, there was a little more disdain in his tone.
"South Korea can participate in the five-nation alliance today, and he will be able to serve Qin again in the future."
Bai Yifei drank all the wine in the cup, his eyes were stagnant, and the face on his face became very serious.
"The combination is only for profit, among the five countries, there are few like Pang Xuan, who are bent on destroying Qin. The general should know this, and Pang Xuan should also know it. β
Although Pang Xuan was on the altar at this time, he was surrounded by thousands of people. And Bai Yifei is standing alone on the wall.
In a way, Pang Xuan is the most outlier of the crowd. And Bai Yifei is the one who stands with the vast majority of people.
The princes of the past dynasties joined forces to attack the Qin State, but they were all blocked in Hangu. The last time Hangu Pass was broken was decades ago, when the Qi general Kuang Zhang led the allied forces of various countries to attack Qin.
But at that time, the state of Qi was in full swing, and the emperor of Qin, and the military strength of all countries, and the authority of Zhou Tianzi, were successful. And now the strength of the coalition is far from what it was back then.
No one would have thought that they would really be able to break through Hangu and destroy the Qin State. It's more about wanting to get practical benefits in this war.
Cities, grain, wealth, and population, these are what the princes value most, not an ethereal slogan to destroy Qin.
"If you know you can't do it, you're a hero."
Hearing Zhao Shuang's words, Bai Yifei felt ridiculous in his heart. He looked at Zhao Shuang in surprise, as if he was a little incredulous, and the wine bottle in his hand almost fell to the ground.
"I never thought I would hear this from General Zhao."
Zhao Shuang showed a smile on his face, looked at Bai Yifei, and asked.
"What kind of person will Ben be in the eyes of the Hou Ye?"
"Mencius said that there was no righteous war in the Spring and Autumn Period. But people at that time didn't know what real purgatory was. In the world of the Warring States, the princes attacked each other, and in each war, tens of thousands of people were killed and injured at every turn, and lives were fleeting, like morning dew. The order established by King Wu and Lu Shang in the past has long since disappeared today. β
"Confucius was bent on resuming the Zhou ritual and wanted to clarify this turbid world, but the times continued to move forward and slipped into the abyss."
Zhao Shuang has seen Bai Yifei with many faces, but today's pair surprised him a little.
In other words, Zhao Shuang never thought that he could hear these words from Bai Yifei's mouth.
But what does that have to do with the question he just asked?
Bai Yifei's eyes are far-reaching, and he has been looking into the distance. After a long time, he detached himself from the emotion just now, recovered his coldness, and seemed to realize his gaffe.
"Today, you and I both said something that shouldn't have been said. But I want to say more. β
"The world has been immersed in darkness for too long, and perhaps there will really be someone in the future who will sweep away this turbid world and re-establish order."
Bai Yifei looked at Zhao Shuang and smiled.
"If there really is that day, General Zhao will definitely be able to see it."
Zhao Shuang muttered softly, how did Bai Yifei sound like he was hurting him.
"How do I seem to have heard that?"
When Zhao Shuang came back to his senses, Bai Yifei's figure was already far away, one hand dropped the wine bottle, and both hands were behind.
"No matter how clever the strategy is, it will eventually turn into the simplest battle of strength."
"Victory and defeat, strength and weakness, the simplest contest."
"If Pang Xuan's strategy is successful, he will not be able to spare Pu Han. Now LΓΌ Buwei has sent 10,000 elites to garrison, which is not easy to obtain. β
"Ben Hou is here, I wish General Zhao a victory."
