Chapter 741: Enlistment
There are many mizusawa near Xutai County, Donghae County, with dense reeds and streams.
If you are not a local, once you leave the main road and strayed into the swamp, it is easy to lose your way and eventually die in this water.
It's a great place to hide.
On a flat land surrounded by reeds, there is a small settlement.
"I heard that the emperor has sent Zhao Tuo to Baiyue to take charge!"
Jing Ju, who returned from the outside world, announced the news, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"It seems that the Qin army's invasion of Baiyue this time is really heavy casualties. Otherwise, the Dog Emperor would not have sent Zhao Tuo to the south. Hahaha, okay, those Yue people barbarians performed really well this time, and they gave the Qin people a hard lesson! ”
Someone cheered.
Xutai County is located near Huaishui, a long distance away from the Baiyue battlefield in the south.
Although the news of the defeat of the Qin army in Baiyue came to the news, under the deliberate blockade of the government, no one knew what the specific battle situation was.
They only heard that the Qin army had been defeated.
But no one can say exactly how they were defeated and how many people died.
Now, as the emperor officially sent Zhao Tuo, the marquis of martial arts, to the south, and at the same time issued an edict for all counties to recruit soldiers and transport grain again, it was obvious that a signal was expressed.
The Qin army was defeated miserably.
And it's a very miserable kind.
Otherwise, the emperor would not let Zhao Tuo go out, and he would have to recruit troops again.
"Brother. I found someone to hear the news from the county government, and it is said that the Qin army is going to recruit 10,000 people in Donghai County this time. plus the other counties. It is estimated that the total number of Qin people in this conscription is about 100,000, so from this point of view, they failed miserably, and at least tens of thousands of people died. Maybe 100,000 people! ”
In the lobby of the house, Jing Ju said excitedly.
A cheer rang out.
Those who can follow the Jing brothers all the way to the present are basically loyal to the Chu State, and they have the most bitter hatred for the Qin people, and they are naturally happy to hear this kind of news.
Some people even shouted: "It's better for all the Qin army to die, and let Baiyue become the cemetery of the Qin people." ”
Jing Tong on the main seat was not as excited as these people, but he had a calm face and a gloomy face.
Jing Ju noticed his brother's appearance and asked, "The Qin army's defeat in Yuedi is a great joy for us, and my brother doesn't seem to be happy?" ”
Jing Tong sighed: "Most of the Qin troops who conquered Yue are our Chu people. Do you say that there are many Qin people in Guanzhong? ”
The laughter in the room stopped abruptly, and everyone looked at each other.
This time, the Qin army recruited soldiers from the south of the Great River, from Han, Wei, Qi, Chu and Guanzhong.
Most of them are Chu people, and among the 200,000 troops, there are at least more than 100,000. As for the real Qin people in Guanzhong, maybe there are only twenty or thirty thousand.
Therefore, the Qin army was defeated in Yuedi, and it was really their Chu people who died the most.
"The Qin people are vicious!"
"The Dog Emperor's expedition to Baiyue may be to let our Chu people die in Yuedi, he wants to use this way to shed the blood of our Chu people!"
Everyone reacted and scolded, and the joy just now disappeared in an instant.
Some people even published conspiracy theories, saying that the emperors of Qin often fought wars in recent years, just to shed the blood of their six countries to weaken the anti-Qin forces.
A young man scoffed: "What does it mean to laugh and scold for a while?" Instead of spending time here, you should seize the good opportunity in front of you to do a great thing. ”
The young man's voice was loud, and it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Xiang Ji, what do you want to do?"
Jing Ju asked curiously.
Xiang Ji just turned 18 this year.
He is not very old, but his courage is very amazing, and he is known as the strength to carry the crown, which is terrifying.
Coupled with the reputation of his father, Zu Zhonglie, and the Xiang clan who initiated the uprising, Xiang Ji has a lot of status in this small anti-Qin force.
As soon as he spoke, everyone looked sideways.
Facing Jing Ju's inquiry, Xiang Ji raised his eyebrows and said loudly: "What are you doing?" Now that the Qin people were defeated in Baiyue, the emperor sent Zhao Tuo south to lead the army, away from Guanzhong Qin. This is our chance, just find an opportunity to launch a blow, and we can kill Zhao Tuo! Remove a great evil for the righteous people of our six nations! ”
Everyone was shocked.
Assassinate Zhao Tuo?
"Xiang Ji, do you want to emulate Zhang Liang's assassination?"
Jing Ju was shocked: "It can't be successful!" Zhao Tuo is a general of the Qin army, and this time he went south, at least thousands of guards followed, and it was impossible to give you a chance. When he arrives in the army, there are hundreds of thousands of troops to protect him, and you want to assassinate him? Utter nonsense! ”
Xiang Sheng, who was sitting next to Xiang Ji, was full of surprise, glared at Xiang Ji and said, "Ah Ji, don't do stupid things!" ”
Even Jing Tong, who has always been calm, frowned and said: "Ji'er, Zhang Liang took the risk of assassination before, and it is said that he only injured one of the guards, and the emperor is fine. In the end, Gongsun Xin and those righteous soldiers who assassinated were captured and killed by the Qin people, and even your Xiang clan was annihilated, and even the Korean and Qianqi who were far away in Haidong were implicated. Assassination is not feasible. ”
Xiang Ji shook his head and said, "Uncle Jing, don't just look at Zhang Liang. Don't you hear about the former dictatorship and Nie Zheng? ”
Specialized.
Nie Zheng.
As soon as the names of these two assassins came out, Jing Tong raised his eyebrows slightly.
Zhuan Zhu was entrusted by the light of the prince of Wu to hide a dagger in the belly of the fish at the banquet and present it to the king of Wu. He took advantage of the unpreparedness of the king of Wu and assassinated him on the spot.
As for Nie Zheng, it is even more incredible, this person was entrusted by the South Korean Minister Yan Zhongzi to enter the mansion of Han Xiangxia alone. A person killed from the door, all the way to the house, and cut down dozens of guards and attendants in a row, and the assassin was tired of the Prime Minister's Mansion, which can be called the berserker version of the assassin.
Both of these Assassins did something earth-shattering, and their assassinations changed the tide of a country.
Now Xiang Ji cited the names of these two people to prove that assassination can be successful, and there are successful cases to be found.
When he saw that everyone was silent, he took advantage of the situation to tell his plan.
"This time, the Qin army recruited troops in various counties and counties, and Donghai County recruited 10,000 soldiers, which was an opportunity. We can buy the county lieutenant to change my name and surname, and I should be recruited into the army. Then I can blend in with the Qin people's southern expeditionary army, as long as I enter the army, Zhao Tuo's defense against his corporal will definitely be greatly reduced. ”
Xiang Jizhong's eyes widened, and his face was full of excitement.
According to his plan, if Zhao Tuo had the habit of patrolling the camp, he would just go to the military camp where he was. That item could burst out in an instant and assassinate Zhao Tuo on the spot when he was unprepared. In order to avenge the revenge of the Xiang clan, and at the same time, it can also remove a major disaster for the people of the Six Kingdoms.
Of course, the probability of assassination while patrolling the camp is very small. The possibility is similar to Zhao Tuo's sudden death.
Xiang Ji's real plan is to rely on his own bravery to make military exploits in the process of the Qin army's conquest of Vietnam.
He wanted to rely on his outstanding performance on the battlefield to climb up step by step, maybe he could be favored by Zhao Tuo and accepted as a personal guard, then he would have the opportunity to do it.
Even if you don't become a short soldier, it's not in a hurry.
Xiang Ji believed that he would definitely be able to make a name for himself in the Qin army, and it was very possible to get close to Zhao Tuo.
I am very confident in this book.
He was a tall man, brave and fierce, and he knew how to use military strategy, and he did not know how much better than those farmers who were digging in the mud.
As long as you join the army, it will be a matter of time before you stand out and be promoted, no one will doubt this.
After Xiang Ji's voice fell, everyone in the Xiang family immediately spoke out to stop him.
"A, don't be impulsive. Now that my Xiang clan has suffered a great disaster, only we have survived, and the Xiang clan is small, you must not easily put yourself in danger. Even if your plan succeeds and assassinates Zhao Tuo, what about yourself? ”
Xiang Sheng opened his mouth to comfort.
Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Tuo next to him also anxiously persuaded him.
Xiang Ji sneered: "My husband is inherently dead, and I would rather die from assassination than be accompanied by fish and shrimp in this water all day long." If the husband dies, he will die, so why be afraid! ”
Xiang Ji spoke sonorously and powerfully, showing the enthusiasm and courage of young people.
At the age of eighteen, and with hatred in his heart, he naturally does not take life and death in his heart.
He was ready to die.
Xiang Ji stared at Jing Tong with both eyes.
He has already decided that he will do this regardless of whether Jing Tongtong agrees or not.
Shrinking in this water with the smell of fishy earth wafting in the air is not his Xiang style, let alone the fate of Xiang's people.
He used to be young and was restrained by Jing Tong.
Now that Xiang Ji is eighteen years old, he is able to plan his destiny and do what he wants to do.
The eldest father, father, uncle, and the entire Xiang clan, young and old.
He wants revenge!
Jing Tong looked at the eloquent young man in front of him in a daze, and the pair of father and son with strong personalities in the past came to mind.
Xiang Yan.
Xiang Qu.
There is also the item in front of you.
Such a fierce personality is really in the same vein.
Judging from the appearance of the item, it is already unpersuadable.
Jing Tong still wanted to work hard, so he persuaded: "The Qin army was defeated in Yuedi, it can be seen that Baiyue is difficult to attack, even if you don't go to the draft, maybe Zhao Tuo will be defeated by the Yue people, and it is possible to die there." Why risk your own life? ”
Xiang Ji asked rhetorically: "Will Zhao Tuo be defeated by the Yue people?" Has he had a defeat since he became famous? ”
Jing Tong was silent.
It seems that Xiang Ji has studied Zhao Tuo's achievements in recent years and has a deep understanding of Zhao Tuo.
After a long time, Jing Tong sighed: "If you want to go, go ahead." ”
Xiang Ji smiled.
He glanced at the stunned crowd in the temple and burst out laughing.
"Gentlemen, just wait for the good news of my item!"
Third, it's a little later, so you can save it for tomorrow
