Chapter 129: The First Emperor of the Ages!
After the butcher returned home with the meat.
I feel a little dizzy in my head.
He knew it was normal.
But it also means that his time is running out.
He exhaled and ran to the tank, where he lifted the wooden lid and inside were dozens of lifeless fish.
The fish's eyes are all silvery-white, terrifying and terrifying.
He took the fish out, put them in a large pot, boiled them with waste water and crushed them into a meat foam.
Spread it into grease on the pork fan.
It was then chopped up and sent to several families in very good condition.
These families are closely related to several clan families, and in the final analysis, they are the doglegs of the nobility.
After the delivery, the butcher became more and more in a trance.
He knew his time was almost up.
The butcher leaned a little weakly against the wall and gradually slid down.
As an old Qin man, he used to be full of enthusiasm, but since he came here, he has always been a little suspicious.
The aristocratic family is in power, and the common people are all fish and meat, when will they have a bright day.
Even if he sacrificed himself like this, could he really make Great Qin the prosperous scene they said he was?
Originally, he was a little unconvinced.
But after seeing the eldest son in the past two days.
He suddenly understood that Da Qin was not just a person's Da Qin.
It took five hundred years for Great Qin to reunify the world.
Why can't it take another hundred years to create a peaceful and prosperous world!
Even if the First Emperor couldn't do it, with these efforts, Gongzi would do it sooner or later.
And these people are destined to be the most conspicuous and dazzling names on the monument erected that day!
The butcher smiled, his vision blurring as he sat down completely.
In the haze, he suddenly saw a peasant woman carrying a basket of vegetables to several households.
The woman passed by and saw a weakened butcher in the alley.
She didn't come forward to ask, but nodded respectfully.
Then he walked towards the next household with a resolute face!
……
Lujiang County, outside Yugan County.
Ying Xuan came here with four hundred people.
Further south are Yuzhang County and Minzhong County!
Yuzhang County is the original Yangyue, Yu Yue and Wu Yue!
Minzhong County is Ouyue and Minyue after being pacified.
In fact, these two places are closely related to Chu because of their location in the north.
The clansmen among them are not only Yue people.
In particular, Yuzhang County surrendered without even much resistance when the army attacked.
Ying Xuan and the others did not stay, and after a short rest, they went directly south and entered Minzhong County.
Along the way, Ying Xuan said little.
As a result, hundreds of people were also silent, and the ranks were very dull.
Zhang Liang knew why Ying Xuan was like this.
After stepping into the Minyue range.
The crowd dismounted again to rest.
Ahead is the border of Minzhong County, which can be regarded as stepping into the war zone.
In the future, there may be a small group of Yue people at any time, and everyone must maintain good energy.
Ying Xuan stood on a boulder and looked north.
He thought about it all the way, and finally understood something about why the first emperor had made five tours in history.
Such a large country, as the first to bring it together.
Whether he himself has doubts.
Perhaps he is not only for fun, but also to supervise and inspect these local forces.
He can only feel at ease if he sees the situation on the ground with his own eyes and then makes arrangements for the transfer of officials.
Perhaps this is why those people are afraid of the First Emperor.
At this time, Zhang Liang walked up.
"Childe is worried! The Temptation Solution? ”
Ying Xuan didn't reply, but asked rhetorically.
"From the Zhou Dynasty to the present, the clan family has been passed down from generation to generation!"
"Not only is it everywhere in the world, but it also monopolizes the entire class."
"It's like a beam stuck in a canal, not up or down!"
Ying Xuan looked into the distance and frowned.
"You and I can see that it is these aristocratic tumors that are blocking the unification of Great Qin and the formation of cohesion!"
"How could the First Emperor not know? Want true centralization! How can it be achieved with them? ”
"Why did you leave the army behind when they crossed the border?"
Ying Xuan couldn't figure it out.
Zhang Liang did not give an answer.
"Maybe the First Emperor has his own arrangements."
Ying Xuan frowned.
Yes, he was in such a hurry to come south, just to see why the Southern Expedition army had not pacified Baiyue.
How did the army of 500,000 be routed here several times?
Even according to history, after being reminded for the first time, this should not happen again!
If it continues like this.
The army could not return to the Central Plains and suppress these local nobles, and there were only 300,000 Qin troops left in the north.
Even if it is all handed over to Meng Tian, go north to attack the Xiongnu.
What to do with the Northwest Yueshi?
What to do with Donghu in the Northeast?
What's more, there is a Xiqiang to the west, will he take the opportunity to jump out and fall into the well?
No one knows!
If this continues, it is really possible for Maudun's strategy to succeed.
Ying Xuan's brows furrowed, he didn't believe it, the First Emperor was really so unwise? Can't see the dangers of these old nouveau riches?
Under the stone, Xiang Bo, Xiang Yu and others thought that even a tiger had a time to nap.
What's more, Daqin is like a giant beast, who dares to peep in this era.
Even the First Emperor would never have thought that this Mao Dun really had such courage!
They couldn't help but shake their heads, but fortunately Childe was very wise.
Even if Daqin really collapsed, in their current opinion, Gongzi would definitely become the strongest one.
After the rest, Ying Xuan held the doubts in his heart and set off again.
After a day, everyone finally came to the vicinity of Jieyang.
This is the forefront of the Eastern Route Army of the Southern Expedition.
It is also the army with the largest number of people in charge of Zhao Tuo.
It stands to reason that there are 300,000 people on this road, but the progress is so slow.
Ying Xuan wants to take a good look at whether it is the fault of the first emperor or the fault of the generals.
A small town ahead.
It's a town, it's more like a makeshift barracks.
If it weren't for some of the dilapidated wooden houses, it would have been inhabited.
The people of Yingxuan really regarded this as a camp built by the army.
A few kilometers from the camp.
Then a soldier stepped forward to stop him.
"Who's here in the front barracks? Reveal your identity now! ”
Ying Xuan couldn't help frowning when he looked at the soldiers who were dirty and bloodstained.
300,000 troops, is the attack still so embarrassing?
This look is the soldiers who have just been rotated after the battle, and before they have time to clean their clothes, they have been sent to guard the surrounding areas.
The forbidden army beside him stepped forward and took out the forbidden army talisman and handed it over.
"At the behest of His Majesty, come to support the Southern Expeditionary Army, and immediately order Zhao Tuo to come and greet him!"
The soldier looked at the rune he had never seen before, and was a little puzzled when he heard the other party's words.
Open your mouth and let the general come out to greet you?
What is the identity of these people.
But he was a little excited, if it was really the arrival of reinforcements, then they would be much easier!
The soldier turned and ran towards the barracks.
Xiang Yu on the side frowned at this moment.
"Why is the barracks of this 300,000-strong army so shabby?"
Ying Xuan also noticed that the 300,000 army, it stands to reason that its camp should be divided into dozens of endless small camps.
The barracks tent is set up in the center, and each barracks in each direction is equipped with different branches of the military.
In this way, you will not be afraid of the enemy's surprise attack.
But the camp in front of him not only does not have such a wide area, but even the guard tower built is much less.
Ying Xuan frowned, could it be that something went wrong again?
At this moment, the camp suddenly began to agitate.
Immediately after that, thousands of people poured out of the gate.
Although they are dirty, their momentum is not weak at all, and the person at the head is Zhao Tuo.
Ying Xuan and the others were about to step forward, but who knew that an arrow suddenly shot out from behind the other party.
Then Zhao Tuo questioned very vigilantly.
"Who the hell are you waiting for? Get your name now! ”
Xiang Yu stepped forward alone.
"We are here to support your Southern Expedition by the will of Your Majesty!"
Who knows, that Zhao Tuo laughed loudly.
"Your Majesty's will?"
"Your Majesty is really like a god, before leaving, he specially instructed me and Ren Huan, saying that someone would pretend to be reinforcements to come to the test!"
"There are really such aristocrats who eat inside and out, rebelling behind their backs!"
Xiang Yu was puzzled.
At this time, behind Zhao Tuo, a man suddenly spoke.
"I know him!"
"He's from the Jiujiang Xiang clan! It's called Xiang Yu! ”
Zhao Tuo suddenly snorted coldly.
"Sure enough! You and other despicable villains will only make some moves behind the back of the Great Qin Iron Horse! ”
"I advise you not to set your minds on our army!"
"We 300,000 people were ordered by the emperor before we came!"
"No matter what war occurs in the country, we will not participate, just to completely pacify Baiyue!"
Zhao Tuo looked at Xiang Yu coldly.
"But if you dare to take the lead in provoking us, then I can't say that my army of 300,000 must first turn around and clean up the tumor of you!"
Xiang Yu was even more confused.
What does it mean at this time.
At this moment, a cold voice came out.
"Zhao Tuo!"
Suddenly, Zhao Tuo's arrogant face immediately froze.
He blinked, and couldn't help but reach forward.
The familiar voice and familiar face made him slow down for a while before he reacted.
Xiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, this person recognized the son.
The next second.
"Phew! Wait for the crumbs! Dare to hold the eldest son hostage! ”
"Today, if the old man doesn't die, he will be sorry for the people of Daqin!"
Zhao Tuo was furious!
"Soldiers! Kill this group of people who only know how to fight in the nest and eat things outside the inside! ”
Seeing thousands of soldiers, they raised their spears and were about to rush.
Ying Xuan, who was stunned for a few breaths, immediately walked to the front and stopped everyone!
"Bold! Zhao Tuo! ”
"Are you going to do the opposite?"
But Zhao Tuo didn't listen, and rushed to take the lead.
In an instant, two hundred forbidden troops rushed straight up.
The guard crossbow is wound, and the escort formation is launched around Yingxuan.
The remaining two hundred Xiang clan disciples also gathered together to prepare for the battle.
At this moment, after seeing the familiar black armor of the forbidden army, Zhao Tuo immediately waved his hand again and stopped.
Then he dismounted and galloped, and a terrible cry rang out.
"Childe! You're here! ”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
This guy is really vigilant.
Under the leadership of Zhao Tuo, Ying Xuan and the others entered the somewhat dirty military camp.
"Childe, it's not that the last general doesn't believe you!"
"It's true that before I came, Your Majesty had personally explained it!"
"Don't trust anyone, all those who come to support after that are the enemy!"
"When the time comes, there may even be chaos in the country! But we are not allowed to care! ”
Ying Xuan frowned, what does this mean.
But at the moment, he hadn't thought so much, and his attention was drawn to the entire barracks.
In the whole of Jieyang, there are thirty small camps in front of the periphery.
In the middle are ten large camps.
It is arranged in a zigzag pattern.
On both sides of the road were not camps like the Huaiyang Army.
Rather, they are wooden houses, most of which are newly built.
It stands to reason that the army that wants to keep moving forward should not waste time building such wooden houses.
Ying Xuan frowned, could it be that this Baiyue has been defeated several times, is it really because of the generals?
Are they passively avoiding war?
But when he passed by the door of one of the wooden houses, he saw a seriously wounded soldier lying in it.
The wound was definitely new.
Suddenly, Ying Xuan fell into doubt.
Zhao Tuo introduced the situation of the war while knocking on the side.
"Now that the two sides are in a stalemate near Longchuan, the last general really didn't expect that you would come to support in person!"
"Even if it's only four hundred, that's reinforcements!"
Zhao Tuo showed no dislike at all.
But everyone knows that he means to ask if there are any reinforcements behind!
Finally, a group of people came to the tent of the army.
Zhao Tuo still wanted to be tempted, so he blinked his eyes and asked carefully.
"Childe is here, but does Your Majesty know? Do you have any other orders or reinforcements? ”
At this time, Ying Xuan was already trembling angrily.
"Reinforcements?"
"Do you still have the face to send reinforcements?"
"A whole army of 300,000! The attack on Baiyue has not only been months without progress! ”
"And several routs!"
"Now these barracks can only hold a maximum of 200,000 people!"
"Where are the remaining 100,000 soldiers?"
"And the hundreds of thousands of officials and slaves of the Six Kingdoms who accompanied the army?"
"All dead on the battlefield?"
"Zhao Tuo! You know what a defeat! But it's the crime of killing the head! ”
This burst of scolding directly frightened Zhao Tuo.
He explained with his mouth open crying.
"Childe! Wronged! ”
"Where did the army of 300,000 come from! Hundreds of thousands of officials and slaves! ”
"When I went south, I was given the order that there were only 70,000 soldiers! Hundreds of thousands of slaves from the Six Kingdoms! ”
"Ren Huan in the west is not much better than me!"
"Your Majesty's death order! Relying on these soldiers, Baiyue must be pacified. ”
"To the southwest, at least defeat South Vietnam!"
"The last general is careful! From Ouyue to this point, there has never been a defeat! ”
"That Ren Huan is also terrified, for fear that the soldiers will suffer too many casualties and not enough troops!"
"We are fighting while gathering the local displaced people, so that we can advance here little by little!"
"If there is an army that Childe said!"
"Don't talk about South Vietnam! It's Xiou! The last general has already beaten you! ”
Zhao Tuo's words immediately stunned everyone.
Ying Xuan's eyes widened.
"Seventy thousand soldiers? Hundreds of thousands of official slaves? ”
"How is that possible? The news of Xianyang, the Southern Expedition of 450,000 troops, hundreds of thousands of slaves! It has almost exhausted Great Qin's national strength! ”
"Once these soldiers are defeated, it will be difficult for Daqin to stabilize the country!"
Zhao Tuo also answered.
"Yes! If that's the case, it's hard to deter the country! ”
"How could Your Majesty do this!"
Ying Xuan was stunned suddenly.
Oh, yes! And who would really do that?
Unless he wants to see with his own eyes, what kind of scene is the uprising and rebellion in various parts of Great Qin!
Ying Xuan froze suddenly, he remembered what Zhao Tuo had just said.
"No matter what chaos occurs in the country, they are not allowed to take care of it!"
In addition, the Jiujiang rebellion could last for several months.
During this period, Xianyang got the news, but Baiyue retreated several times.
Ying Xuan's eyes narrowed unconsciously, all these things were connected, and the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became.
He and Zhang Liang on the side couldn't help but glance at each other.
Zhang Liang is already numb in the scalp.
His trembling hands subconsciously pinched his chin.
"This is a big game of chess!"
Ying Xuan's hairs stood on end.
Great Qin has an army of 800,000 that can be called upon at any time.
There are 300,000 in the north who have not moved, guarding against the north.
But the first emperor of the previous year in order to cut down Yue, obviously recruited 500,000 old Qin people with strong combat power!
But now you tell me that there are only 100,000 real Qin soldiers in the land of Baiyue?
Where are the remaining 300,000 soldiers?
Wrong! And the 200,000 strongest standing army in Guanzhong is also gone!
Ying Xuan couldn't stop swallowing his saliva.
I just feel that the whole person is wrong.
He and Zhang Liang looked at each other again for a long time.
Finally, Ying Xuan suddenly laughed.
"Haha! Hahaha! Good! What a game of chess! ”
"What an emperor through the ages!"
He finally understood!
Mao Dun wants the Central Plains!
Why doesn't Yingzheng want the royal court?
Don't want the whole world as far as your eyes can see?
Big Chapter! And also!
