Chapter 944: Return to Xianyang
Gao Yuan and Hehua came out of the cave, and Yun Yao immediately greeted them and said, "How is it, have you found it?" "Although Yun Yao doesn't know anything about prehistoric civilizations and the like, she can generally understand that the reason why Gao Yuan and Hehua came to the Bailing Clan's residence is to find a powerful weapon that can deal with Chi You.
The entrance to the cave was always open, and Yun Yao had been standing at the mouth of the cave, but the bottom of the cave was too deep, so Yun Yao could only see the light in the cave, but what happened to him, what Gao Yuan and Hehua said, but it was unknown.
Gao Yuan smiled, nodded, and said, "Don't worry, you've found it." β
When Yun Yao heard this, she also put her mind at ease and said, "That's good, let's go back to the camp." β
In fact, this time the trip to the Bailing tribe's garrison was very smooth, so after returning to the camp, Gao Yuan ordered that the men and horses rest in the valley for three days, and then return to Xianyang.
The climate in the valley is warm, and after the overall migration of the Bailing tribe, there are a lot of animals inhabiting here, the camp is built on a small river, the swimming fish in the river are delicious and the meat is fresh, so it is very comfortable to live in the valley. The other soldiers rested in the valley to hunt and fish, and their lives were good, but the plateau and Hehua had no intention of playing, and they had stayed in the camp for the past few days, discussing the plan after returning to Xianyang, and now the information they got was that Chiyou had officially fused with Han Teng's body, and although Chiyou who got the body was not as powerful and terrible as the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou in the battle, it must not be underestimated. So after returning to Xianyang, should Gao Yuan concentrate on handling internal affairs and wait for the situation in Guanzhong to stabilize before taking action, or should he immediately prepare to send troops to directly attack the Jiuli tribe as soon as he returns to Xianyang.
No matter which choice it is, it is not very suitable, because the current rule of the plateau in the Guanzhong region is not stable, and this time the plateau came to the station of the Bailing clan despite the opposition of all officials, which is not the right decision, and if the army is sent to attack the Jiuli tribe at this time, it is not the right time. What's more, now even the location of the Jiuli tribe's residence is not clear. But if you stay in Xianyang and deal with internal affairs, it will take at least a year or so for the plateau to stabilize its rule in the Guanzhong region and be able to launch a large-scale military operation, and during this time, it is still unknown what Chiyou will do and what he will do. Therefore, the two men deliberated for three days, but did not come up with a clear result.
In the end, He Hua said: "I really can't discuss a result now, let's wait until I return to Xianyang, anyway, Chiyou has already obtained the body, and we will come out this time, at least four months, during this time, Chiyou will definitely take action, maybe we don't have to choose, Chiyou will help us make a decision." Also, didn't Sang Qingti join us on behalf of the Sang, Tu Yong, and Jiang Li tribes of the Jiuli tribe? I don't know if there will be any changes after Chiyou gets the body, if they still come down as scheduled, you can also listen to their opinions. β
Gao Yuan also nodded and said, "You're right, it's better to wait until you return to Xianyang, and then it depends on the situation, anyway, we will set off tomorrow, so let's rest a little earlier today." β
At this time, He Hua said: "Gao Yuan, it has been almost ten years since we came to this era, right?" β
Gao Yuan calculated in his heart, it was really almost ten years, so he had to feel that time passed so fast, and so long had passed unconsciously.
He Hua said again: "If we defeat Chiyou, will you go back?" β
This question has been asked by Hehua before, but whether he returned to modern society at that time was still an ethereal thing, so Gao Yuan did not go to his heart, but Gao Yuan knew that in Hehua's heart, he had always been thinking about returning to modern society, and now returning to modern society is a really feasible thing, and it is really in front of the two of them.
Gao Yuan thought about it for a while, and finally shook his head and said, "No, I won't go back, because in this era, I have too many things that I can't let go, and I can't leave them all behind." β
He Hua nodded, in fact, Gao Yuan's answer was not surprising, excluding other factors, if you return to modern society, Gao Yuan is at most an excellent agent, maybe after serving for a few years, you can change to a stable position and live a peaceful life, but that's all, and then live a dull life, but in this era, Gao Yuan is already a king with most of China's territory, and there is a great possibility to unify the whole country and start a new history. The contrast between the two eras is indeed too great, so if it were Hehua, I am afraid that I would not be willing to return to modern society.
He Hua said again: "Did you have a family in that era?" β
Gao Yuan said: "Of course there is, but you also know that those who do our job may die at any time, so my family should be able to face it calmly, and the state should also give some compensation." β
He Hua smiled and said, "That's right. β
Gao Yuan said again: "What about you? Are you going back? I remember you used to talk about it all the time, and you said it several times. β
He Hua was silent for a while, with a hint of dazed expression in his eyes, and said: "I always wanted to go back before, but now I can really go back, and I can't make up my mind, although I am not like you, there are so many things that I can't let go of in this era, but it is true that I don't say that I will throw it away, but I still have family and friends in that era, and I can't let it go, so I don't know how to choose." β
Gao Yuan smiled and said: "Since I don't know how to choose now, let's think slowly, anyway, there is still time, maybe when the time comes, you will make a choice, and maybe we can't defeat Chiyou, so we don't have to choose anything, so what we have to do now is to defeat Chiyou." β
He Hua said: "Also, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, let's talk about it then, the most important thing for us now is to defeat Chiyou, only by defeating Chiyou, can we say other things." β
ββββββββ the dividing lineβββββββββ the dividing lineββββββββ the next day, Takahara led the army out, left the valley and began the return journey. After nearly two months of travel, the group finally arrived in Jiuyuan County, entered the territory of the Han Kingdom, and completed this trip to the Bailing Clan's station.
Although there are still more than ten days away from Xianyang, it only took more than four months to travel this time, which is very fast, and the Gao Yuan group in Jiuyuan County also learned about the heavy things that have happened in the Guanzhong area in the past few months.
It turned out that during the period when Gao Yuan and Hehua left Xianyang, something really happened in the Guanzhong area. Three of the Yuanzhi clans of the Qin State raised their banners in rebellion, intending to overthrow Gao Yuan's rule in Guanzhong.
In fact, these three distant branch clans of the Qin State have been secretly gathering strength, wanting to raise their banners to resist the plateau, but the forces they can recruit are limited, and they have only gathered a few hundred people, and the most is not even a thousand people. On the one hand, this is because these three distant branches of the Qin State have no power in the first place, and their ability to call for them in Qin is limited, on the other hand, after the plateau enters the customs, the governance is still relatively appropriate, and the ordinary people will naturally not take the risk of rebellion, so in addition to the doormen raised by themselves, the others are just some local ruffians who are not lazy and unemployed.
With such a small force, it is simply impossible to resist the rule of the plateau in Guanzhong, or even to restore the Qin state. Originally, if Gao Yuan and Hehua were in Xianyang, these three distant branch clans of the Qin State would really not dare to act rashly, but Gao Yuan and Hehua left Xianyang at this time, but they felt that they had a glimmer of opportunity, thinking that they could drive other clans and clans of the original Qin State to launch together, and it might not be impossible to do it, so these three distant branch clans of the Qin State agreed on a good time, and at the same time raised the flag to rebel, and agreed to attack Xianyang first as the king.
However, although the plateau and Hehua are not in Xianyang, it does not mean that Xianyang is not prepared, because the Han State has long been accustomed to the situation that the plateau is not in the capital, so the administrative operation of Xianyang has always been very normal, and there is no delay because the plateau is not in Xianyang.
So after receiving the news, Li Yinghong immediately ordered to send troops to advance to quell the rebellion. As a result, before the army could be dispatched, a rebel army was defeated by the local garrison and fled into the mountains for refuge; There was also a rebel army that attacked the county seat, so it had to retreat to the manor of the Yuan branch clan of the leading Qin State to garrison; Only one rebel army captured a small city and raised a number of troops, totaling just over 2,000 men. The response of the other forces that the three of them hoped for was completely in vain. It's not that there are no other forces that want to rebel against the rule of the plateau, but they are all waiting to see the development of the situation after the three people raise the flag, but if the three of them are like this, who would dare to respond again.
As a result, after the Han army arrived, they wiped out these three rebellious forces without waste, and most of the leaders were captured, and only a few died on the battlefield. In addition, with the people of the accomplices and their family members, a total of more than 1,000 people were arrested.
Li Yinghong ordered that the main personnel of this rebellion, a total of more than 300 people, were all beheaded for public display, and the rest of the personnel were moved to the north for hard labor, because at this time, it was absolutely impossible to be soft, and it was necessary to use heavy repetitions to shock other people who were ready to move.
Sure enough, the resolute and resolute actions of the Han army, coupled with Li Yinghong's tough methods, did cause a lot of shock to other people who were watching, and many people were secretly glad that they had endured it for a while and did not follow up, otherwise they would have ended up like them, thus completely dispelling the idea of rebelling against the plateau.
