The sky was bright, a person sat on the boulder to rest, holding a long sword, his eyes were full of vigilance, the open space around him was completely occupied by a sword hand, last night's accident really made people break out in a cold sweat, if it wasn't prepared in advance, the outcome was unpredictable.

The chamberlain Zhao Gao squatted aside and whispered something, Ying Zheng shook his head, "It shouldn't be, even if someone wants to assassinate, they can't predict the itinerary!" ”

A group of people rushed over, vaguely heard the screams behind them, did not dare to stop, protected Yingzheng and rushed forward, after dawn found a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, Zhao Gao ordered several people to return to check.

The chamberlain returned, bowed forward and told what he saw, Zhao Gao nodded again and again, the seven chamberlains who stayed in the rear were all killed, and there were traces of fighting on the ground, and the corpse of the man in black was also found, but he couldn't judge the identity, but it was certain that these people were not Qin.

There are special marks tattooed on the Qin people's bodies, according to different identities, the patterns of the pierced parts are completely different, and the marks have also become status symbols, Zhao Gao nodded, and the person quickly retreated to the side, and then trotted all the way to report to the King of Qin, Zhao Gao insisted that this matter was not accidental, it must be someone in Xianyang City who wanted to harm Yingzheng, as for the identities of those killers, there were not a few people in the six countries of the East who made a living in Qin.

Ying Zheng frowned slightly, all parties in Xianyang City gathered, many of them secretly supported Cheng Jiao's side, this is understandable, the Ying clan launched a civil strife, and the rest of the tribes were attached on the surface and did not move, most of them had to sit and watch the changes, of course, there were six eastern countries, among which Han, Wei, and Qi had been destroyed by Zhao, and the death of the country was only the slightest hatred for Qin, and the forces in Xianyang City were not small, but how could a little news of leaving the city be known, and the entire Xianyang City seemed to be the only queen mother except for the inner servants around him, no, absolutely not.

"King, it's a little strange, the corpse of the other party was also found on the hillside, and the horseshoe prints are also new."

"In this way, in addition to these people, there is a group of people, no matter who it is, as long as it is beneficial to me, it is completely unnecessary, how long is it to travel from the camp?"

"Two hours."

"Let's go!"

The Qin army battalion

Lü Buwei stroked his beard, and a group of generals gathered below, and the army was stationed in the important place of Chencang, and the dangerous places on both sides were all occupied by the Qin army, and the rebel army also occupied the high place and formed a confrontation with the army led by Lü Buwei.

"Xiangguo, if you don't send troops again, it is inevitable that some people in Xianyang City will say that Xiangguo's people have bad intentions."

Lu Buwei smiled indifferently, "This prime minister was entrusted by the previous king, and he didn't dare to be careless for Qin, the chaotic army was big, and he would definitely not raise troops before he was absolutely sure!" ”

Meng Tian said: "Lord Xiangguo, can you reveal the mystery in it, so that the army and soldiers can rest assured." "The army has been stationed for many days and has not been fighting, the barracks have long been dissatisfied, Meng Tian is also confused as a general, in the past, the Qin army must be directly killed with a thunderous momentum, without giving the other party any chance to fight back, although the number of rebels is limited in numbers, if it is a head-on battle, it can be won with absolute certainty.

"Why did the generals follow the prime minister to quell the rebellion, instead of following the rebels?"

"Lord Xiangguo can't trust us people, and everyone will be punished for the rebellion." The person who spoke was Wang Qian, with amazing force, and the big gun in his hand had the courage of ten thousand people, and he was angry in the face of Lu Buwei's questioning.

Meng Tian said with a smile: "Today's king is the prince set up by the previous king, the name is right, and he is also a wise and decisive master, the chaotic army is chaotic after all, no matter what reason prevaricates, after a long time, the people will see the facts clearly." ”

Lu Buwei nodded, "Yes, at the beginning of the rebellion, the momentum of the rebel army was amazing, although the number of people was small and the combat power was strong, now it is different, after two years of melee, there is only one force left in the east, with a force of nearly 400,000, and the same is true in the west, with a force of nearly 200,000, and the rate of the prime minister is only 300,000. ”

"It's not the way to go on like this!"

Lu Buwei laughed, "General Wang, don't be anxious, the battlefield is like a game of chess, no matter how it is laid out in the early stage, the final decisive battle will inevitably lead to a victory." ”

Wang Jian sat back in his place, compared to Meng Tian is more calm, Lu Buwei has already planned, the chaotic army keeps expanding its troops to enhance its own strength, but unfortunately it always ignores one point, the rear is originally a barren land, the annual food output is limited, and it can't be compared with the control of the city around Xianyang City.

The Great Tent of the Eastern Rebellion

There is a mess outside the camp tent, there is a shortage of food in the army, the village has almost been looted, and the new grain this year is also unable to maintain hundreds of thousands of food, "Noisy, no matter how noisy it is, Lao Tzu will pull it out and cut it!" ”

The main general was furious, several people walked out quickly, and several military camp generals came to urge food, and they couldn't help but be anxious if they didn't see the food delivered for a few days, especially the new army, the army's morale was not stable, and it was inevitable that things would change if it went on like this.

"Go back first, and the food will be distributed to the battalions soon!"

"Okay, just wait a few more days."

Everyone on the periphery left, a few people returned, the atmosphere in the big tent eased a lot, and the man stretched out his hand, "Is there any movement on the side of the thief?" ”

"Still building fortifications and holding on."

The man snorted coldly, "The cowardly mouse generation is just an ignorant business traveler, I don't know what method was used to get the reuse of the previous king, and it is really funny to snub us of the Win clan." ”

When it comes to the deceased first king, a person's face is obviously unbearable, not someone else, Ying Zheng's half-brother Cheng Jiao, when the prince lost, even so the Ying clan is still on Cheng Jiao's side, the reason is very simple, bloodline, the old Qin people pay the most attention to blood, Zhao Ji is always Zhao people, the identity is even more embarrassing, and even some people began to doubt whether Ying Zheng was really from the first king, of course, a qiē just suspected that it could not be tested at all.

"The first king is in love, Lü Buwei knows how to grasp people's hearts the most, and he will be deceived in the end, fortunately, your uncles have clear eyes and see Lü Buwei's ambitions, and Cheng Jiao is here to thank the first king!"

Cheng Jiao bowed and saluted, and everyone hurriedly got up to salute back, the most critical thing to start a war this time is precisely the weakness in front of him, the prince of Qin, if there is no Cheng Jiao in hand, so the army is completely reduced to rebellion, and the old Qin people hate it the most.

"At this time, in the name of the son, we should contact the Western Clan, and the east and west will work together to capture the camp of the Lu thieves in one fell swoop, and enter Xianyang to assist the Ming Lord in the great cause of rejuvenating Qin!"

"That makes sense, what does Childe think?"

"Cheng Jiao writes immediately!"

Someone sent pen and ink, Cheng Jiao is very knowledgeable, once followed the old Shangqing to read, quickly finished, and when the pen and ink were dry, it was handed to the person who was the leader, and the person nodded again and again, "The words are earnest, reasonable, come and send them to Xiying quickly." ”

The rebel army west camp

The situation is almost the same, several generals gathered to discuss the method of raising grain, and the direction leading to Xianyang was completely occupied by Lü Buwei's camp, as for the original barren area of Ba County, the people mostly hid in the deep mountains, the land harvest was limited, and of course, there was one point, the mysterious Ba Chamber of Commerce, the terrifying mysterious strength also made the rebel army dare not fight the idea of Ba County.

"There are only two roads that are feasible, one is to open the Xianyang access road, and the other is to enter the deep mountains of Ba County."

The main general shook his head again and again, "The Xianyang passage is impregnable and difficult to overcome, and as for the deep mountains of Ba County, it is better to be less troublesome if you don't return!" ”

"It's better to go to Dongying, if the grain and grass are sufficient, borrow grain temporarily."

"It works!"

"Absolutely not!" The main general slapped the table, "What kind of thing is he, how can the title be compared with this general, but it is just relying on Gongzi Chengjiao to achieve something in the end, if he really fights, he may not be Lao Tzu's opponent!" The lord's eyes were round, and he was also qualified to succeed to the throne of the prince in terms of identity, but unfortunately he failed in the big test at the beginning, and he was not convinced, and then the opportunity of civil strife swallowed more than ten chaotic troops to form the camp in front of him.

"Having said that, heroes don't suffer immediate losses, if they want to succeed, they should solve their urgent needs first!"

The man's face sank, the facts were in front of him, there was no room for quibbles, the matter of grain and grass was not solved for a day, the 200,000 army was in danger of annihilation at all times, and his own death was small, and he could not see the people of the Ying clan throwing their heads and spilling blood to beat the world and be manipulated by outsiders, among which the sharp point was Lu Buwei.

Qin Zizhao King began to vigorously use foreign ministers, the so-called foreign ministers are talented people from the six countries in the East, Lü Buwei was born to defend the country is not a Qin person, that is, an outsider, and is in the position of Xiangguo, as for the position of Shang and the general, Meng Shu is in charge, although Meng Shi has been in Qin for decades, he is also not an old Qin person, who is Shangqing! Cai Ze, he is not a Qin person, the three powerful ministers of the Qin State are all outsiders, how can the people of the Ying clan not be angry, under the slogan of excluding thieves and rejuvenating Qin, they don't know that the old Qin people have responded, so there is today's chaos.

A sound of footsteps approached, and the soldier ran in quickly, "General, a messenger from the Eastern Battalion!" ”

"Dongying, please!"

Everyone got up, the relationship between the east and west two battalions is extremely delicate, and the same slogan of eliminating thieves and defending Qin, it is much easier for Dongying to have Chengjiao to do things, and the master of the chaotic army will have the potential to coerce the son to order everyone, and the people in Xiying are unwilling to obey the command of Dongying, and now why is the messenger coming.

After a short time, the soldier walked in with the messenger, and the man stepped forward, "Childe's secret letter, please take a look at the general!" ”

Everyone in the camp looked at each other, mentioning Gongzi Chengjiao suddenly became a little more interested, a qiē completely because the two brothers fought for the throne, they all wanted to know what was written in the secret letter, since it is a secret letter will not be known to outsiders, the Lord will be careful to open, words are earnest, expressing the desire of the Win Bian people for Xingqin, after several generations of efforts to have today's momentum, a qiē is the credit of the Win clan, now the thief is in charge, since the thief should go all out to comfort the soul of the ancestors, meet together to send troops, after the success of the meritorious reward land, city!

"The old Qin people are undefeated, please reply to Gongzi and raise troops together in three days!" After speaking, he picked up the pen and ink and wrote a few sentences and stamped them with his own big seal, which is equivalent to having a covenant, and there is an agreement between each other that they can send troops with peace of mind.

The messenger left, and one said: "General, are you really going to send troops?" ”

The main general sneered, "The east camp is strong, Lu Buwei will inevitably put the main force on the east side, if this battle is successful, the strength of the east camp will be greatly reduced, if it is defeated, as long as the benefits are enough." After speaking, he let out a sneer, and didn't take Dongying and his party in his eyes at all, Cheng Jiao was just a yellow-mouthed child, and as for those rabble, there was no need to worry.
