Until the end of the day, when the sun was rising, there was no news from the pursuers.

The northern and southern armies of Xianyang were already less than five miles away from Xianyang. After Yingwen entered the palace and reported the location of the army to me, he built a defense on the spot in case of accidents.

It was almost noon, Li Jie rushed into the Xianyang Palace, and said in shock: "Your Majesty, the people who pursued Bai Tou reported that Bai Tou did not catch up, but he encountered a miscellaneous army composed of Qianshou and slaves in Yangling, about a thousand people, galloping towards Xianyang. The first banner is the word 'white'. ”

When I heard this, I felt more and more uneasy. Bai Throw lost Bai Wei, the most important chess piece, but he would not be stupid enough to use this improvised patchwork of more than a thousand miscellaneous troops to attack Xianyang, what did he want to do?

At this time, Li Si and the others were already concentrated in the Xianyang Palace, and everyone couldn't guess the intention of throwing it in vain for a while.

Feng Quji took the initiative to speak: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that everything should be changed with the same. It can make the army stand by in case the rebels move away from the mountain! ”

I nodded: "Hold on and wait for the enemy to arrive." I'd like to see what tricks this white throw can play! ”

It was only at the time of the unit that the rebels arrived in Xianyang, stopped when they were five miles away from the northern and southern armies, and did not take the initiative to attack.

The city of Xianyang has been under martial law since the arrival of the northern and southern armies, and no one is allowed to move, let alone enter or leave the city gates.

"Have you heard, there are rebels who want to attack Xianyang!"

"Huh? Impossible, who would dare to cause chaos in the hinterland of my Great Qin? ”

"It's hard to say, I heard that it was because His Majesty moved the land of those nobles and cut their military merits!"

"Humph! These nobles ride on our heads all day long, and want me to say, Your Majesty has done a good job! It's time to kill their majesty! ”

……

For a time, rumors spread in Xianyang.

The two armies were in a stalemate until the next morning, and neither of them made a rash move.

Just when Ying Yan felt a little uneasy, he only heard a shout from the leader of the enemy formation: "Fusu is tyrannical, and he should be established Huhai!" My Bai clan has been blessed by the King of Qin for generations, and now it is for the Great Qin Society! Rush with me! ”

The enemy, led by the man in charge, launched a fierce attack on the northern and southern armies.

As soon as Ying's spirit was lifted, he immediately ordered the soldiers to fire a volley of arrows, and when the enemy approached, the soldiers rushed out with a shout and fought with the enemy.

These miscellaneous armies were no match for well-trained soldiers, and under the onslaught of the Qin army, their decline gradually appeared, and there were slowly signs of defeat.

At this time, in the Xianyang Palace, everyone was anxiously waiting for the results of the battle.

Suddenly, a shout sounded, and it was so close! Looking up, billowing smoke was rising everywhere in Xianyang City.

Before Li Jie's figure was seen, his voice had already come in: "Your Majesty, rebels have suddenly appeared in the Fang City in the city, and they have now broken through the barrier of the Fang City and are gathering towards Xianyang Palace!" ”

Everyone in the hall was shocked when they heard this, and they panicked, and someone hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, the rebels are so close, for the sake of Your Majesty's safety, it is better to retreat to the harem for a while!" ”

Seeing that everyone was panicking, I frowned and shouted, "What are you panicking about!" I, Daqin, built a country by war, what are the few thieves to fear! ”

As soon as I finished speaking, several burning sacks were thrown into the square in front of the palace through the palace wall.

There was another commotion among the crowds, and even Li Si opened his mouth to persuade: "Your Majesty, let's stay away for the time being, the thief has a stone-throwing device, in case he hurts His Majesty, what should I do with Daqin!" ”

Looking at the chaos in the hall, I slowly got up, and the voices of the people gradually stopped.

When the palace was quiet, I said in a deep voice: "When I founded the Great Qin Dynasty, I was just raising horses for Zhou Tianzi!" In the west, there are righteous canals that often plunder, and in the east, there are six countries eyeing each other. Even so, I, Great Qin, still dominate the world! Have all these princes forgotten? Could it be that in just more than ten years of peace and tranquility, I have made Daqin a weak country that is afraid of war and enemies? ”

"If you are afraid, retreat to the harem and take refuge. I'm here, and I'm not going to take a step back! I want to see the thieves perish! ”

The officials in the palace are all former ministers who have personally experienced Yingzheng's journey from the King of Qin to the emperor step by step, and now when they hear my loud words, they instantly ignite the ambition of following Yingzheng to unify the world!

Yes, in just a dozen years of stable life, they have lost their fighting spirit. People are not afraid of hardships, they are afraid of comfort!

Only to hear the voices of the people are about to break through the roof of the Xianyang Palace: "I am willing to follow Your Majesty!" Swear not to give up! Great Qin 10,000 years! Your Majesty Long live! ”

Seeing everyone's performance, I nodded, and I still have some backbone!

"Li Jie, how much is the palace gate guard?"

"More than 300 people!"

"When will the reinforcements arrive?"

"Half an hour!"

"Li Si, what can be used for the income from the sale of farm tools that Gong gave you before?"

"It's being discussed, it's not yet decided."

"Li Jie, order two hundred and fifty people to stick to the palace wall. Fifty people were scattered all over the palace wall and issued an edict to the head of Xianyang Qian: Anyone who kills one enemy will be exempted from paying for one year! Whoever captures one person alive will be rewarded with ten gold! Those who sue the official will have ten stones of grain! ”

"By Your Majesty's orders!"

Not long after, the shouts of soldiers came from outside: "Emperor's edict!" Whoever kills one of his enemies ......"

Gradually, sporadic shouts from the rebels began to appear outside. Half an hour later, the cries of the people of Xianyang had already overshadowed the shouts of the rebels!

At the end of the day, Ying Yan and Li Jie entered the Xianyang Hall together.

"Your Majesty, all the 230 rebels in the city have been killed, Xianyang Qianshou has killed 100 people, and the soldiers have killed 130 people!"

"Your Majesty, more than 1,000 rebels outside the city have been killed, and the people who are the leaders have been killed and killed."

Everyone congratulated in unison: "Your Majesty is wise, Great Qin Wannian!" ”

I wasn't excited. Unexpectedly, Bai Tou hid more than 200 rebels in Xianyang City, and even carried stone-throwing tools, if it wasn't for the people of Xianyang, Xianyang Palace might really be breached.

"Can you identify the rebels in and out of the city?"

"Your Majesty, the rebels outside the city are all members of the Bai clan and their family slaves, and there are others who are coerced and coerced by the Bai clan."

"Your Majesty, the rebels in the city have entered Xianyang one after another since the beginning of this winter, pretending to be a grain team, and have been hiding until now."

Hearing Li Jie's words, I was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "I thought that there were so many grain teams in the city this winter, which was caused by the implementation of my national policy, but I didn't want it to be a thief. ”

Li Si said: "Your Majesty must not think like this. There are only more than 200 rebels, but the number of food teams coming and going in the city this winter has reached 1,000, which is really the work of Your Majesty! ”

Everyone agreed in unison.

I waved my hand to indicate that it wasn't the time to say that.

"Has the white throw ever been caught?"

"Identities have been verified one by one, and I haven't seen them!"

I frowned. If this person is not removed, sooner or later it will become a big disaster!

But where can he go? If you want to command the rebels, you must not be far from Xianyang, and at this time you probably know that the rebels are wiped out and can only flee.

I tapped lightly on the tabletop.

There is the Northern Army left behind in the north, the Qinling Mountains in the south, and the Southern Army and Hangu in the east, so he can only go west.

What is in the west? The Bai clan was almost wiped out, and he couldn't be stupid enough to wait for him to be arrested in Yixian. Further west is Rong Di's territory, and those who have betrayed the imperial court since ancient times will choose to cooperate with the barbarians to wait for the opportunity. It is basically impossible to escape the pursuit in the Central Plains, and the possibility of throwing Rong Di in vain is the greatest......

Wrong! Although Bai Throw rebelled, it has to be said that his prestige in the Qin army is still relatively high, and the reason is that he is ruthless, especially against barbarians. In the eyes of the barbarians, he can be described as a lot of crimes, and Rong Di can't tolerate him!

Then it's Ba Shu left. But what can he do when he goes to Bashu? It is a basin, and there are only two roads in and out of Hanzhong and Dajiang, which is tantamount to throwing yourself into a net.

I jerked my head up.

That's right! He's the Captain of the Protectors! There are still 50,000 Qin troops stationed in Bashu!

"Meng He, you immediately go to Hanzhong with my edict and tiger talisman, and secretly order the soldiers of Hanzhong County to secretly check the suspicious people who are going in the direction of Bashu, don't startle the snake!"
