Chapter 887 - Most of them are defenseless

In the middle of the moon, the night was thick, and the glowing light of the fire reflected the panicked faces of the refugees.

Looking back at the back of the rushing car, you can still see the huge shadow of the city and the light of candles one after another. Brushing aside the white hair that was scattered in the wind, Li Si felt sad in his heart.

"If you're not careful, you'll lose all the games......"

As the right prime minister of Great Qin, Li Si has lived in the city for thirty-nine years, but he never thought that he would escape from Xianyang in such an embarrassing way......

was able to break out under the siege of Lang Wei, thanks to the desperate battle of the doorman, and Li Si's desperate killing of Zhao Gao's stand-in, and let people hold his head, shouting "Zhao Gao's rebellion has been ambushed", and won some Lang Wei to hesitate.

Only then did he break out of a siege in Xianyang.

After all, Li Si is not a general with experience in a hundred battles, and Zhao Gaozhi's strategy has disrupted the deployment, so it is a little difficult to counterattack, but it is not difficult to escape from Xianyang.

Because everyone knows that Xianyang has no outer Guo......

Li Si stroked his cheeks and secretly rejoiced: "Fortunately, someone invited Cheng Xianyang back then, but was rejected by the First Emperor!" ”

I remember that more than 30 years ago, Li Sihuai learned the imperial art from Xun Qing, and when he entered the Qin State, the most shocking thing was not the solidity of Cuihan, nor the fertile field of Guanzhong, but Xianyang, a city with a wealth of power and wealth in the world, and there was no outer Guo city wall......

Out of Miyagi, Lilu leads directly to the wilderness farmland, without any defense, how confident this is!

Most of them are defenseless, this is the rule of the countries from Yin Zhou to Spring and Autumn: in ancient times, the Son of Heaven guarded Siyi; The Son of Heaven is humble and guards the princes. The princes were in their neighborhood; The princes are humble and keep in the four realms. Be vigilant against the borders of the Quartet, make friends with neighboring countries in all directions, and the people of the country will live and work in peace and contentment on their own land, and the agricultural work in spring, summer and autumn will be harvested, so that there will be no internal worries and no external troubles, and the national capital will be used to increase and repair the city wall.

The real reason for this may be that the capital will always siphon the population of the country, and as the number of residents increases, the early construction of the city wall will limit the development of the capital.

But not every country can stick to the end, for example, Li Si's hometown of Chu, when it was strong, it was extremely confident, controlling a series of vassal states such as Chen, Cai, and Xu, guarding the four neighbors, and taking Fangcheng as the city and Hanshui as the pool, guarding the four borders.

But as the threat of Wu to Chu became more and more great, Nangwa, the ruler of Chu, began to worry and surrendered to Chengying.

After the Spring and Autumn Period, new countries such as Tian Qi and Wei gave up the old rules that most cities were defenseless, and they longed for the higher the city, the better.

The only one who persevered was the Qin State.

Since Qin Xiaogong moved the capital and made Shang Ying build the inner city of Xianyang, the city has expanded more than ten times, almost every ten years, it has to be in the periphery of a circle, and even across the Weishui, the new palace room has been repaired to Shanglin, but there has been no outer Guo.

On the one hand, the geographical advantage of the unique heaven is one thing, because of the city of Huawei, the practice of the river as the pool, and the plug of the Kuihan, which makes people daunting.

On the other hand, it is the self-confidence of the Qin kings of the past dynasties - under the leadership of Kuang Zhang, the Six Kingdoms once broke through the Hangu Pass, but they stopped there, and the Chu State even hit Lantian and was driven back by the Qin people......

After Qin Shi Huang was proclaimed emperor, some ministers proposed to cultivate Wai Guo, but the first emperor refused.

The First Emperor said: "When the Six Kingdoms jointly attacked Qin, Xianyang did not need a city, let alone unify it today? No more foreign enemies? ”

"If you can't defend it, the city will be useless; Takefu, the dry city of the country! Zhu Qing, the million-dollar head of Xianyang, as well as the children of the good family, Lang Weicaishi, every man with a sword is the Guo wall of Xianyang! ”

Zu Long is so confident and domineering.

It's a pity that the First Emperor never dreamed that the enemy of Great Qin was not outside the four levels, but in the Xianyang Palace......

In short, it is thanks to this system that Li Si was able to escape by luck, the military equipment in Guanzhong is concentrated in Ziwu Pass and Lantian, Xianyang is empty, and now there are rumors in the city, and there is a mess, and the pursuers sent by Zhao Gao have not been able to catch up with Li Si.

By the time dawn, everyone had rushed to Du Ting, and the pavilion chief rubbed his eyes when he heard the sound and went out to check, but was subdued by Li Si's cronies.

During the interval between drinking water, as soon as he counted the number of people, Li Si found that in addition to his son Li Yu and others, dozens of servants, there were also three sons, generals and Kundi, who joined his plot, and a group of cronies and former officials, all of whom looked terrified, because they were not like Li Si, who had been secretly arranging for their children to go out of the city a few days ago, and everyone's family members were still staying in Xianyang City, and they were worried at the moment.

"Right Prime Minister, what can I do about it now?"

The prince's generals were so desperate that their wives and concubines and their young children were left in the city, and the generals now regretted their participation in the coup.

His fellow brother, who married the son of the Korean son of Jizi in his early years, after the death of the princess who was not accustomed to the climate of the Central Plains, the son who married the young daughter of Li Si was much calmer, and he broke everyone's illusions:

"Zhao Gao is vicious and His Majesty has no family affection in his heart, if we return, we will be killed, and Xianyang will never return."

"Where should we go, woman?"

Li Si naturally had already prepared a way back.

The old guy asked the servant to help him comb his hair, pretended to be calm, and looked to the west: "Go to the ruined hill!" ”

Waste Hill is the nearest county to the west of Xianyang, away from Duting, but forty miles of road, the gallop road is flat, and the car can be reached for half a day.

Although Xianyang has no outer Guo, but its surrounding counties and towns are good, it can also be said that in the grand plan of Qin Shi Huang, the waste hill is Xianyang Xiguo......

"The abolition of the hill order is the old man's hand, it can be trusted, let's go there and take refuge for a while!"

After that, the old man quickly climbed into the car, and let people take several fast horses from Du Ting and give them to his son Li Yu and two servants.

"Ru crossed Weishui to the south, tried to bypass Lantian, and went to Yaoguan to inform the Marquis of Wuzhong: The people of Xianyang have been looking south to Wang Shi for a long time, but the puppet emperor and Zhao thieves have noticed that the Lishan prisoners may not be able to launch on time, but the old man has done his best to make Xianyang chaotic and ......the armaments are empty."

"Now Si seized the waste hill of the west gate of Xianyang, gathered 10,000 people, raised the banner of righteousness, and carried the pot to carry the pulp to welcome the king! Don't miss the opportunity and don't come again, please Marquis Wu Zhong, quickly attack the king of Lantian and leave the army! ”

……

"Wei Zhaojun, I was sold by the prime minister!"

In Wangyi Palace, Hu Hai heard what happened last night, and was suddenly awakened from a night hangover.

The dignified and right-hand minister rebelled against themselves? Hu Hai only felt in a trance, he looked at the wine bottle in his hand, he was almost unsteady on his feet, and then he thought that he had almost handed over the talisman that dispatched the Lishan prisoners to the old horseman, and he was even more afraid.

Then he was furious: "What a Lisi, Haoshou old thief!" In vain, he was the minister of the first emperor and the head of the hundred officials, and he did the same thing as the Feng family, colluding with the black thieves and wanting to harm the Great Qin Sheji, if I let him arrest him back, he would be exterminated by his three clans, and he would die with five punishments! β€œβ€

"As for those Lang Wei who failed to arrest and let Li Si go, the car will be split immediately to set an example!"

Zhao Gao also regretted Li Si's false claim that Zhao Gao was dead, so that some Lang Wei released water to let the old guy escape from Xianyang, Zhao Gao was also very regretful, and immediately said:

"Your Majesty, Li Si has taken advantage of the chaos to run west, and he should immediately ask the internal Shi Bao general to arrest the Wei Wei Army, but the most important thing to worry about now is whether there are still his henchmen in Xianyang City......"

"That's right." Hu Hai gritted his teeth: "Those officials who ran away from the old thief, their families were all arrested, and the protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials who were related to Li Si were all imprisoned!" ”

As a result, Xianyang's prison may not be able to fit in.

"It's not just the officials." Zhao Gao raised his voice: "As far as the minister knows, the three of Gongzi will Lu Kundi also participated in the rebellion!" ”

Hu Hai nodded: "Although he is my brother, he is the same as Gongzi Gao, he has a suspicious heart, Daqin has a system, Gongzi violates the law, and he is guilty of the same crime as the common people, and he must be treated as a sinner." ”

"There is one more thing to say, please say!"

Zhao Gao said: "Your Majesty is the young son of the first emperor, and the princes are all the emperor's brothers, and the ministers are also the first emperor's place." From the beginning of His Majesty's establishment, the princes, princesses and ministers were all dissatisfied, and often despised His Majesty. ”

"The black thief called His Majesty a puppet emperor in the south, and the one who was in charge was someone else. So the sons of the group had a different heart and wanted to help the black thief in exchange for the throne. He and the ministers are more married, there are Gongzi Gao and Feng's rebellion, after the Gongzi Gao is punished, everyone in the group is in danger, more and more colluded with the ministers, want to sell His Majesty, His Majesty is too merciful, has not been deeply studied, now there is Gongzi will Lu and Li Si matter......"

"Now although Li Thief and the three sons are running, there are still six or seven sons, and ten princesses are staying in Xianyang, and the enemy is currently changing, and it will change again at any time. Thinking about this, the minister often trembled, fearing that it would not end, and today he would not dare to avoid the punishment of the axe, and would rather bear the infamy of dividing flesh and blood, but also ask His Majesty for his life. ”

Zhao Gao bowed down and said the most terrifying of the secret covenants that the Chu people negotiated with their brothers:

Destroy the Qin Sect!

"Please follow Li Si out to the three clans, and force the sons and daughters to go to Lishan to be martyred for the first emperor, so that Xianyang will have no internal worries!"

Hu Hai was shocked: "Kill all your brothers and sisters? This, this is probably ......"

Although he is the only son of his mother, he has always been favored by his father and emperor, and he is unique, and he does not have much family affection with the children born to other concubines of the first emperor, but after all, he is a flesh and blood connected by the same vein, and his blood is thicker than water......

"Has Your Majesty forgotten the teachings of the First Emperor?" Zhao Gao followed the guidance and said in Hu Hai's ear:

"The Son of Heaven is ruthless!"

"The Son of Heaven has no relatives!"

"The party of the concubine and the lady prince is formed and wants the death of the king, and if the king does not die, it is not important. Love is not hatred, but also the death of the king. ”

"It is still not credible for a husband to be close to his wife and his son, let alone a brother or sister?"

"Those sons and princesses often hate Your Majesty for treating them harshly, and everyone looks forward to Your Majesty's death!"

Hu Hai was stunned, yes, isn't this what his father once taught him?

The emperor has no family affection, brothers and sisters, all are burdens.

In a hundred battles a day, all those who threaten themselves must be killed!

Zhao Gao replied: "When Lu Huan killed his brother Lu Yingong, did he hesitate? ”

"Did Jin Chong hesitate when he killed Jin Huaigong and took his nephew's wife?"

"If Your Majesty doesn't do it again, they will be in trouble!"

The rebels are getting closer and closer to Xianyang, and Hu Hai has already been hit, indulging in wine and advocating excellence in Wangyi Palace all day long, so as to anesthetize himself and panic all day long.

And now, the blows are one after the other: the black man has entered the customs, the chief minister has suddenly betrayed, and the three brothers want to kill themselves.

"Smack."

"Smack."

Last night's wine had not yet fully woken up, and there seemed to be auditory hallucinations in my ears.

Hu Hai heard it, heard it, it was the footsteps of destruction, all brushed, and it was outside the door!

The brothers and sisters around him quietly put their hands on the dagger, wanting to cut off their heads and sacrifice them first......

"Haha, alone, alone, haha......"

He suddenly howled and cried: "Father, you are in Huhai, do you love me or harm me?" ”

The crying gradually stopped, Hu Hai's feet staggered, and his eyes were bloodshot.

It was the fear of destruction.

And madness!

Raising the copper bottle, he poured another sip of wine, and with enough courage, Hu Hai held the cold jade seal on the case with both hands, and covered it heavily on a white silk.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"
