Chapter 521: This is not a battle to invade the Six Kingdoms, it is a battle to defend the Qin soil, and a battle to liberate the Qin people
The first year of the second emperor, March 3.
Qin banned alcohol, and the spring breeze could not wake up, so it was only slightly cold.
Winter has just passed the cold spring, and the grass and trees are not human.
The soldiers, who were recruited a winter in advance, are finally about to set foot on the real battlefield after a quarter of training with good food and drink.
The red sun brings warmth that is better than nothing. On the military field, 200,000 soldiers saluted the figures on the wooden platform, their eyes burning. The combination of cold weapons and the lazy and unhot weather can't make them flinch even a little.
The conscription that the civil and military officials thought was inappropriate was not an inappropriate question for these low-ranking soldiers who returned home to enlist in the army for the people, and were not up to the rank of the first rank of the Duke of Qin, it was not an inappropriate question, but a life-saving grace and a life-saving grace for the family.
There was no honeycomb coal, no rations from the imperial court, and no money that would not be worse after the imperial court gave the rations, and in the past winter, I don't know how many people would die in the cold and freeze hard.
Faint? Bah! There is no better king than the Second Emperor.
Two years ago, Xianyang's most ruthless curse - Ruzi Wang Brother, has now become the highest praise. Parents of children who receive this compliment, laughter can disperse clouds hundreds of miles away.
The eyes of the 200,000 soldiers were wide open, looking at the silver figure that shone in the sun. Although their eyes were almost split, they just wanted to see the dignity of the second emperor. But only the first few rows of soldiers can realize this wish, there are too many people.
Fan Er stood in the eighth column of the second row, and before joining the army, he was a very ordinary citizen of Xianyang City. In order to be able to stand here and see the second emperor with his own eyes, it all depends on him having a good sister who is married to a centurion.
Seeing the true face of the second emperor, he was very excited, His Majesty was a little weaker than he thought. Through the lines of the all-silver armor, it can be seen that His Majesty does not have the tiger's back like other generals.
But, it's so beautiful......
The eight-foot-tall second emperor was not angry and self-imposing, and under the backdrop of sonorous silver armor, his originally handsome and yin face became heroic and masculine, and he walked with great strides, like a god.
Fan Er stared at the face of the second emperor seriously, and wanted to keep this heroic and masculine face firmly in his mind. If you have the life to come back alive, you will go to the old carpenter of Dongfeng with the best craftsmanship in the west of the city to carve it out, and go home to replace the wooden tablet that my father spent ten yuan to find a scholar to write.
Fan Er thought that kowtowing to His Majesty's wood carving and thanking them could better express their family's gratitude than looking at a wooden plaque with only His Majesty's honorific name written on it, although it was still far less.
Seeing that the silver-armored god smiled, his lips moved slightly, and he raised a large horn to his mouth.
Fan Er was in good spirits, and he was about to hear the Second Emperor speak with his own ears.
This winter, when the generals in the barracks gave lectures in front of the large army, they all held a loudspeaker, and Fan Er was very familiar with this object.
"It's been a winter of chaos outside the border, and the dog's brains have been beaten, and Qichu, Zhao and Wei have all returned to the country one by one. As soon as I woke up, there was only one Guanzhong left in the Great Qin Empire, and this was the most terrible nightmare I had ever had. My brother Shi Huang ruled the world, and the great rivers and mountains that he defeated will not be lost in my hands. At midnight, I couldn't sleep for a long time. I'm worried, I'm afraid, the restoration of the Six Kingdoms to the west, the Great Qin Empire, do you have to die in the hands of my Yingcheng Chan? ”
Fan Erya gritted tighter, and his five fingers, which were red from the cold, turned white from vigorously clenching the cold barrel.
The 200,000 Qin soldiers were silent, looking at their king in silence, but their breathing was slightly heavy. Two hundred thousand snorts and mouths gathered together like a precursor to a storm.
"This is a national disaster.
"In history, there has never been a country that has been besieged by the whole world and has not died. With the people in a corner of Guanzhong, and the enemies of the six countries and people of the six countries who are ten times the land of Guanzhong, I can't see the slightest chance of winning. ”
The voice of the second emperor has always been very flat.
The plainness of clear water does not make the soldiers emotional, but it can make them hear the real situation from their words and know how dangerous it is at present.
The 200,000 soldiers remained silent.
The vast majority of them had fought in wars, and in the Qin State, where all the people were soldiers, it was difficult to find an adult man among the common people who had not served in the military.
They knew that what the Second Emperor said was right, and Qin's unification of the world was also broken by each and fought one by one, rather than directly starting a full-scale war with the Six Kingdoms.
One-on-one, Qin Guozi was invincible after his rise.
One-to-many, the Qin State was blocked in Hangu Pass by the Five-Nation Alliance several times and could not be held.
"There are two options at the moment.
"1. According to Shouhan Valley, there are 100,000 soldiers left in Hangu, and they can't get in, so let's live behind closed doors.
"Second, go east and invade the Six Kingdoms."
The deafening, but extremely flat sound, disappeared for a moment.
Approaching the high platform, leaning against the back door, Fan Er, who was standing in the eighth column of the second row, saw the second emperor take down the loudspeaker with his own eyes and took a deep breath.
If it had been two months earlier, it would have been a white fog.
The extremely beautiful second emperor raised the trumpet again, his face was serious, and he spit out two words tepidly and without emotion.
"Destroy the country, extinguish the species."
Fan Er's face was unconvinced, and he saw that the robes around him were also unconvinced.
He didn't believe in the destruction of the country and the extinction of the species.
Ten years of invincibility have established absolute self-confidence for the Qin people, and the Qin people firmly believe that on the battlefield, they are invincible.
Standing in the front row were the generals of Great Qin.
Meng Tian, who has the heaviest prestige at present, and after Wang Qian, who has become the first person in the Great Qin military, stood under the stage with a loudspeaker, and shouted at the stage:
"The armies of the six countries are all grass mustard, which enemy is the army of the Great Qin Tiger and Wolf!"
This sentence entered the hearts of the Qin soldiers who had been training for a winter, and the weather was cold, but their blood was not cold.
General Meng Tian is their mouthpiece.
"There are 30 million people in the world, how many people is there in my Qin country? How many soldiers can you recruit? When Wang Jian broke Chu, he mobilized the strength of the country and sent 600,000 troops, and I counted 400,000 more for you. A million soldiers are fighting abroad, and they need at least 20 million stone grain a year, where can I find it for you? Even if the food and grass are safe, you Meng Tian may be better than tens of millions of people if you lead a million troops? ”
The second emperor's thunderous response made the soldiers frown again. They feel that something is wrong, but they don't feel that something is wrong.
The mouth spoke again for the general Meng Tian.
"Your Majesty is very wrong.
"It is important to know that at this time, the world is not ten years ago, and the land of the Central Plains is divided into seven countries. Now there is only one country in the world, and that is my Great Qin Empire!
"The Six Kingdoms have long been in the past, and all the people in the world are my Great Qin people, and they are all Qin people.
"The remnants of the six nations invaded my land and strengthened my people. In the past winter, my people of Daqin instinctively enjoyed the warmth, peace and joy brought by honeycomb coal at home. Now he is persecuted by gangsters, and he is on the frozen ground with blood, and he will not be able to see his eyes.
"The Qin people everywhere have long been looking forward to Wang Shi to save them. Behind His Majesty, there are not millions of Qin troops, but 30 million Qin people. Under the whole world, it is not the Qin soil, and the shore of the land is also the Qin people.
"This is not a war of aggression against the Six Kingdoms, a battle to defend the Qin soil, and a battle to liberate the Qin people."
The morale of the 200,000 soldiers was great, and they nodded involuntarily, and shouted in unison:
"Color!"
The word "liberation" is a word they can hear every day in the past winter.
Fan Er, whose eyes had been fixed on the face of the Second Emperor, seemed to see the Second Emperor smile.
The smile appeared for less than a second, and it was fleeting.
Even Fan Er himself wasn't sure if he really saw it or if he was hallucinating.
