Chapter 167: Qin Shi Huang's Charisma
Of the 100 million people, not even half of them participated in this war, and most of them are still eating and waiting to die.
"We all subconsciously thought that after the advent of the national war system, everyone would be crazy about lifespan, but it doesn't seem to be the case, the Qin people are not crazy because of the reward, but because of Qin Shi Huang."
King Xiong stared at the First Emperor Benji in his hand with complicated eyes.
I didn't realize this problem before, but now I suddenly found out.
A word came to mind.
Charisma.
If you can, you really want to travel to ancient times, meet this legendary emperor of the ages, and feel why the Qin people are so crazy and fascinated by him.
The only thing to be thankful for is that the Bear Kingdom did not participate in this battle, and during this time, due to the war, not only did not lose national strength, but received several rewards.
The number of people killed in the Bear Country has reached 95 million, and as long as you casually destroy a small force, you can get a reward of 100 million people.
With that in mind.
The bear king clenched his fists, and the will that had been lost in his heart rose again.
He is not a person who admits defeat so easily, and vows to compete with Qin Shi Huang.
……
A few days later, Daqin.
Ying Zheng sat in the imperial study, leaning against an ancient tree, squinting slightly, listening to Meng Yi and Zhang Han's reports.
"More than seven million people, beaten and beaten to the ground by my two million old Qin people, from now on, who will dare to compete with my Great Qin?"
Zhang Han clenched his fists.
The whole person was trembling with excitement.
Although I guessed the outcome of this battle, I still couldn't hide my excitement.
Since Daqin did not have a traverser, and all parties would have the intention to isolate the news when the forces developed, he only vaguely knew the other party's technology, and he was not too sure.
So, this result is both expected and unexpected.
"Compared to the fourth son, the ninth prince is stronger, 20,000 people, 20,000 people, stopping the army of six million, it's terrible." Meng Yi looked at the secret letter in his hand, and couldn't help but feel a little numb.
If you ask yourself, if he is Yingtian, he will definitely not be able to do this step.
When he first learned the news, he didn't believe it in his heart, and after several inquiries, he was sure that it was true.
"Before this, I just wanted Sakura to rescue Lao Jiu, but now, with them joining forces, maybe they can really fight evenly."
Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly and muttered thoughtfully.
This time, Yingtian completely exceeded his expectations.
I guessed that this kid would develop very scary in the West, but this speed of development is really terrifying.
Turning his head to look at the west, he couldn't help but feel a little longing in his heart.
Father and son hadn't seen each other for eight years.
"The Ninth Prince is indeed strong."
Zhang Han nodded without hesitation.
Yinggao is indeed very good, but compared with Yingtian, it is still a few points worse.
That's when it happened.
In the sky, unconsciously, a few snowflakes fell.
"Winter is here again."
Ying Zheng's gaze moved to the sky and said lightly.
For other forces, this is undoubtedly a disaster, but for Great Qin, it is not only not a disaster, but a rare opportunity.
In winter, the Qin people will not be affected too much, and the enemy army will be affected, and under the advantages of one another, the enemy can be destroyed at a smaller cost.
"What's going on over there with Wang Qian? Has there been any news lately? ”
Ying Zheng asked after nodding slightly.
Daqin seems to have infinite scenery, but in fact, it is a little difficult.
Go to war!
That is, Yingtian doesn't need the support of the army there, otherwise I'm afraid I can't bear it.
It is true that Great Qin is powerful, but it is not a joke to fight against all the people in the world by himself.
"The Peacock Dynasty has a total of seven giant cities, and in the past three months, Wang Jian has captured one giant city again, and he has gained a firm foothold." Zhang Han said respectfully.
Well?
Meng Yi was stunned for a moment, and doubts flashed on his face.
That's too fast, isn't it?
The Peacock Empire is not a small force, there are millions or even tens of millions of people in any city, and it is impossible to attack it so easily.
"The reason why it was so fast was because Ashoka deliberately retreated most of his men, and I guess he wanted to lure Wang Jian and the others to the imperial city, and then fight to the death."
Zhang Han saw the doubt in Meng Yi's eyes and added.
As he spoke, a deep worry appeared in his eyes.
Although Ying Gao, Li Xin and others said that they were fighting, they were not far from Daqin, and with Daqin's transportation, they could arrive within a day, and it was not an exaggeration to say that they were fighting at their doorstep.
As long as there is danger, troops can be sent to increase the number of troops at any time.
But Wang Jian is different, he is too far away from Daqin, if there is an accident, he will not be able to reach it in a short time, and it will be too late to rescue.
Also, the supplies can't keep up.
Although logistics troops were dispatched and there were various supply depots along the way, it would be difficult to resupply them if they had fought for a long time and had exhausted the grain and grass.
Every time supplies are transported, they need to cross the Himalayas, which makes them extremely inefficient.
Coupled with the arrival of winter, the efficiency will be greatly reduced.
"Is there any movement about the Mauryan Empire?"
Ying Zheng nodded lightly and asked.
"Ashoka was very cautious and blocked all the news, without any clues leaking, just knowing that he did seem to be sending troops to the Empire of Rest."
Zhang Han said helplessly.
Since the Buddha was captured by Ying Bing, there has been a lot of news about the Mauryan Dynasty, and since Ashoka has no time-travelers around him, it is difficult to find out about him.
After all, in the enemy's territory, it is not so simple for spies to hide their figures, and they can easily be exposed.
"The news should be true, the Mauryan Empire is most likely attacking the Rest Empire." Ying Zheng's eyes fell on the map, and he estimated the distance traveled in his heart.
Judging from the distance, the Mauryan Empire should be close to meeting the Rest Empire.
Oddly enough, there has been no news coming out.
There are many small countries among them, and if a big war breaks out, there will be news.
"Have you ever gotten any news that the Rest Empire has appeared on the border of my Great Qin, or any clues or something?" After Ying Zheng pondered for a moment, a trace of doubt flashed in his deep eyes.
For some reason, a hint of bad premonition arose.
I always feel that the Rest Empire will be changed.
Zhang Han shook his head slightly, indicating that he had found nothing.
"Send more people out to find out as much as possible about the war between the Mauryan Empire and the Sabbatarian Empire, and don't forget the torture of Buddha and Huayu."
There was a hint of coldness in Ying Zheng's voice.
"Yes."
Zhang Han nodded immediately and agreed without hesitation.
I don't know why I did this, but I think there must be a reason, as a courtier, all you need to do is obey orders, and there are some things that you don't need to ask more.
"Your Majesty, the minister also got the news of the Peacock Dynasty Starry Sky Stone, the weapon made of this thing is extremely sharp, stronger than all the cold weapons that my Great Qin has now, fortunately, the output is not much, they only have three thousand sets of this equipment so far, but unfortunately it was strictly guarded by Ashoka and listed as the top secret, so they can't get a set out."
Zhang Han took out a palm-sized secret letter and respectfully handed it to Qin Shi Huang, his face flashing solemnly.
The reason why Daqin was able to maintain a complete victory record in several wars was fundamentally due to the development of iron-smelting technology.
And now that he learned that there was a Peacock Dynasty cold weapon that surpassed Great Qin, he was naturally very nervous.
This news is no longer a secret, it has been completely spread in later generations, and the Indian soil of later generations is not strong, and many secrets are public, and they can't be protected if they want to.
It's just that because Hua Yu and the Buddha didn't say it, Da Qin didn't know the news now.
"It's okay, it's only three thousand sets of equipment, it won't cause much damage, and it's been more than a year since they obtained this thing, judging from the output, the efficiency shouldn't be high, just make a wedding dress for my Daqin."
"However, I still have to remind Wang Jian and let him be careful to prevent fake news deliberately released by Emperor Ashoka."
"The Mauryan Empire has a large population, and it stands to reason that the production should not be so low."
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows, and a cold light appeared at the corner of his mouth.
On the contrary, I hope that these forces can get as many rewards as possible, and they will all end up in the hands of Great Qin anyway.
"That's true."
Meng Yi's eyes lit up, and he looked forward to it even more.
Want to see these rewards.
"Your Majesty, the spiritual spring and the spiritual rice have matured three more times, and the minister has ordered someone to preserve them." After Zhang Han sorted out his thoughts, he slowly spoke.
During this time, while all the people of Daqin were soldiers, they did not slack off the development of other industries.
Whether it's light or heavy industry, it's all on the right track.
"Take it all out, use it for reward, and then pass on my order, if a soldier wants to exchange his military merits for spiritual rice but is obstructed, he will be killed directly, and there is no need to tell me."
"This thing is very precious at present, but in the next few days, it will be everywhere, and it will be stored worthless, and it can be used to really play a role."
Ying Zheng sat up straight and commanded firmly.
Where there are people, there will be conflicts of interest, even if it is Daqin, it is not exempt from vulgarity.
If you want to know with your toes, someone will make it difficult.
Now, the price of a grain of spiritual rice has been fried to 10,000 Qin and a half taels, and it is still priceless!
It has been ordered many times, but since ancient times, wealth has moved people's hearts, and there are always people who take risks for the sake of profit.
"Please also rest assured that Your Majesty has issued a military order, if anyone dares to do anything from it, they will directly raze the three clans." Zhang Han nodded and said very decisively.
Daqin is united in his heart, but it is difficult to guarantee the appearance of two pillar worms, which is nothing unusual.
After the two of them reported the news of the recent events in the 36 counties, they did not stay here and slowly retreated.
Ying Zheng sat alone in the courtyard, stretched out his hand to wipe away the snowflakes that fell from the table, and then took out the fold and opened the desk for review.
As the core of the entire Great Qin, he had too many things to do personally.
At this moment, if you want to say who is the most desperate among the forces in the world, it is definitely Ashoka.
Rest in peace in the Empire, outside the Imperial City.
Ashoka stood at the end of the horizon, looking blankly at the city tower in the distance, his eyes were full of incredulity, and the whole person was stunned and completely stunned.
Two months ago, in order to ensure the smooth progress of this battle, he personally rushed to the front line and drove the expedition in person, with the purpose of taking down the Rest Empire in one fell swoop.
When he arrived at the border of the Rest Empire a few days ago, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, he did not encounter any obstacles along the way, it was completely unimpeded, and there was no decent resistance in the village except for the old, weak, sick and disabled.
With this bad premonition, he arrived at the imperial city of the Resting Empire.
After coming here, I found that the huge imperial city had long been empty.
Creak!
Emperor Ashoka took two steps forward, stretched out his hand to push open the city gate, and looked at the deserted streets, his eyes dazed and intensified.
I have imagined countless possibilities, but I never imagined that this is the result.
"Who can tell this king, what is the situation, the Rest Empire can still put on wings and fly?" Ashoka's voice was like ten thousand years of ice, his pupils were red, and he roared like madness.
More than a dozen generals followed behind, silent, and none of them dared to speak.
I don't know what happened, and I didn't get the news that the Rest Empire was gone.
"What are you doing here? Check, you must find out for me, where the Rest Empire has gone, if you can't find out, this king will ask you! ”
Ashoka was mad and roared wildly.
In particular, he happened to learn the result of the war between Great Qin and the Eighteen Small States yesterday.
Now, destroying the Empire of Sabbath is the last way out.
If this project cannot be completed, I am afraid that it will really be over.
Great Qin has at least four million elite soldiers and strong generals, and it also has such a powerful railway network, which is not at all something that the Mauryan Dynasty can fight against.
"Waste, a group of waste things, nearly 10 million people have migrated, but they haven't gotten a little news, what is the use of asking you for this group of waste?"
King Ashoka kicked the general next to him in the stomach and roared hysterically.
At this moment, in the live broadcast room of the Rest Empire, billions of netizens gathered, all of whom were stunned, and their faces were full of incredulity.
Stunned, he looked at the traverser of the Resting Empire.
A few days ago, someone noticed that he was taken away from the Imperial City of the Rest Empire, and he didn't know what he was doing at the time, but with the news that came out in recent days, he faintly guessed some truth.
: The Mauryan Dynasty retreated all its troops and horses and did not fight with Wang Jian head-on, I felt that something was wrong at that time, and at this time, it was clear that it was avoiding and not fighting, and was concentrating its forces to attack the Rest Empire
:, I'm laughing to death, doesn't that mean that the layout of Ashoka during this period is all wasted?
: Great Qin attacked the Mauryan Dynasty, and the Mauryan Dynasty attacked the Rest Empire, I'm curious where the Rest Empire is now, should I run over to attack Great Qin again, right?
: Fortunately, a brainless person like me didn't cross back, if I were a traverser, I'm afraid my pants would have to be cheated, and this intrigue is too terrible
: I finally understand what the art of war is, and it's the first time I've seen it so intuitively
While netizens were shocked by the move of the Rest Empire, they couldn't help but admire.
There has been speculation before that the Mauryan Empire might raid the Rest Empire.
They also wondered how the Resting Empire would choose, and many people thought that the Resting Empire might not be able to escape, but they didn't expect a trick to draw salary.
What makes netizens a little regretful is that there is no traverser who cannot witness Ashoka's face at this moment.
As netizens expected, Ashoka's face is not good-looking, and it can even be said to be extremely ugly.
Two days later, someone found out the ins and outs of the whole thing.
"When the Rest Empire left, it didn't take their traversers with them, so no news was leaked from beginning to end." Dindilia swallowed and spat, his face full of despair.
Don't talk about Ashoka, even they feel that the whole world is dark.
If you can't destroy the Rest Empire, you won't be rewarded, and you won't be the opponent of Great Qin.
"What about their traversers?"
Ashoka's face twitched.
"Ran away."
it!
Ashoka was completely insane.
He took two steps forward, kicked open the door of the Imperial Palace of Rest, and looked at the emptied treasury, and sat weakly on the sofa with despair on his face.
Rao is experienced in a hundred battles, and he doesn't know what to do at this moment.
This time, it's really desperate.
Especially when I think of the hinterland of the Peacock Dynasty, which is being attacked by Wang Qian, I feel more and more sad.
"You can't give up, Lord King, but if you do, what can we do? You have to pick yourself up and lead us down. ”
The bald general came to Ashoka's side and said worriedly.
The others also began to persuade themselves bitterly.
"It's over, it's over, it's all over, what else can I do? Our current strength, if we die to the death, we will fight with Wang Jian to lose both, and when the Great Qin reinforcements arrive, we will no longer have the strength to resist, and we are not Qin Shi Huang's opponent at all. ”
Ashoka sighed softly, and for a moment it seemed like he was dozens of years old.
He is not the kind of person who likes to be arrogant, but people's perseverance, no matter how strong they are, will eventually have a degree.
A series of blows, coupled with the huge pressure brought by Daqin, made him completely collapse.
"This"
The people next to him were speechless, and some of them couldn't speak.
I didn't know the true strength of Daqin before, and he could still raise the heart of resistance.
After this battle in the east, they completely learned about the national strength of Great Qin, and they were all silent.
The forces of Great Qin are no longer something that any force can resist alone.
"We should now figure out where the Rest Empire has gone." Hindiye stood up, looked around, and said meaningfully.
Everyone present fell into deep thought.
"Do you still need to think about it, the Anxi Empire must have taken a detour to Daqin, wanting to fish in troubled waters and profit from it." The bald general didn't think about it, and blurted out directly.
If it is not profitable to spend so much effort, unless the people of the Rest Empire are crazy.
"If the Rest Empire wants to attack Great Qin, why not relocate, it is completely possible to send a secret letter and ally with us."
Ashoka reached out and rubbed his aching temples, and a hoarse voice rang out.
Without waiting for everyone to ask questions, he changed his words and continued to speak,
"If my guess is correct, I'm afraid that the Rest Empire did not attack Great Qin, but ...... Went to the West! ”
The moment the words fell, a trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of everyone present.
Situated at the crossroads of East and West, the Rest Empire could attack both the West and the East.
It's just that everyone subconsciously thought that the Rest Empire would attack Great Qin, and didn't think about going west.
"There is also a war in the West, Yingtian is besieged by Macedonia and more than 30 small countries, this war he will definitely be unable to escape, but before he dies, he will definitely consume the power of the Western countries, and after the peace of the empire passes, he can obtain the maximum benefits."
Ashoka squinted slightly, and as he thought, his vision gradually widened.
The Mauryan Empire is gambling, but what about the Rest Empire?
Thank you brothers for the monthly pass, thank you so much!
