Xiong Wuliang didn't even look back, and waved his hand directly, signaling to kill the Lantian guard.
forgive? Why forgive?
When the Qin people beheaded Xiong Wei and 80,000 Chu people, when they slaughtered all the Chu people in Danyang...did they show mercy?
The army marched long distances, from Danshui to Wuguan, and ran through the entire land of Danyang... They didn't even see any inhabited villages along the way! What does this mean? Represents the blood of Chu people! The blood of Chu people!
A few years ago, when the Qin army came with a great victory and broke into those villages unscrupulously, didn't those civilians beg for mercy?
King Chu Huai's plan to dominate... To be honest, Xiong Wuliang wasn't too concerned about it. Our Chu State’s army is actually here for revenge!
Xiong Wuliang has never been a virgin.
Blood debt must be paid with blood!
General Lantian was frightened to death - the young man in front of him looked young, but he was really merciless in killing people!
Twenty-seven thousand Qin garrison soldiers were all killed in the blink of an eye! There were even piles of Jingguan!
Seeing the bloody sword in the hand of the soldier raised high, he was about to cut it down mercilessly... General Lantian broke the defense and cried loudly: "Your Majesty, spare your life! I am not from Qin! I am from Ba!" "
Um?
Ba people?
A sudden thought occurred in Xiong Wu's conscience... Maybe this person was still useful.
"Wait a minute." Xiong Wuliang waved his hand, stopped the movement of his soldiers, and looked at the Ba Ren general who was kneeling on the ground with urine and feces flowing everywhere: "What's your name?"
The general seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, kowtowed like pounding garlic, and said like pouring beans from a bamboo tube: "Your Majesty, spare your life... The last general's name is Chuanyong, he is from Bashu, not Qin!"
"The general has always hated the Qin people deeply. However, the country has been ruined and the family has been destroyed, so he can only surrender and serve for a while... Now he is willing to abandon the dark side and surrender to the bright side!"
"Spare your life! Spare your life!"
Zhao Hua on the side also came forward and whispered in Xiong Wuliang's ear: "Your Majesty, please think twice, this person may be of great use."
Bashu is now also the territory of Qin - during the period of King Qin Huiwen, general Sima Cuo was sent down the river to capture Ba and Shu and incorporate them into Qin's territory.
Now the Bashu region has not been included in the territory of the Qin State for a long time, and it is not considered an orthodox Qin people. The Qin State also has an attitude of occupying and plundering the Bashu region. The Bashu region has a warm climate and sufficient rice, so the Qin State will The Bashu region is regarded as an endless granary.
The Qin people often collected a lot of grain and grass from Bashu to support the army in battle.
The Bashu people were miserable, but they could not resist. They could only send large ships and large ships of supplies to the hinterland of Longxi in the Qin State through [Bao Shui]... Even if they were to starve to death, they would never be short of the food and grass they handed over.
For example, it is a cold winter, and there is a shortage of food in various parts of the Qin State. In addition, we have to prepare for the possible invasion of South Korea and Wei in the coming spring... Empress Dowager Xuan collected a large amount of food and grass from the Bashu area.
As a result, the Ba people and Shu people who were not affected by the snow disaster now have many deaths from starvation.
Public dissatisfaction boiled.
In fact, after Qin destroyed Bashu, the resistance movement in Bashu and other places never stopped... In 316 BC, Qin destroyed the ancient Shu kingdom, and the land doubled in an instant, and the last king and prince of Shu who stubbornly resisted tragically became Killed by the Qin army.
Subsequently, the Qin people planned to implement the soft policy of "Shu people governing Shu" in the Bashu region.
According to the records in "Historical Records and Warring States Policy", the Qin people "derogated the king of Shu and changed his title to a marquis" - their intention was to turn the Bashu region into a 'vassal state' of the Qin State.
As a result, the Qin people established three "Shu lords" successively... All three Shu lords rebelled against Qin!
Grandma! You’re the same as my Maruyin, right?
In the end, the Qin State actually settled in Bengbu, and completely abandoned the policy of "Shu people ruling Shu", directly established Shu County in the Bashu area, and brought the Bashu area under the direct jurisdiction of the central government - directly parachuted officials from the Xianyang Central Committee, with high-pressure policies and iron-blooded tactics Governing Shu County.
It took several decades before the resistance movement of the Bashu people gradually subsided.
Such public discontent is boiling—perhaps it can be exploited in the future?
Zhao Hua said softly to Xiong Wuliang: "With the low status of the Ba people, he can actually secure the post of Lantian guard of the Qin State... This person must have a high status in Bashu, and staying here may be useful."
Xiong Wuliang's thoughts turned and he nodded slightly, then looked at Chuanyong coldly: "Since you are not from Qin, I will spare your life for the time being - if you dare to be presumptuous, you will be killed to sacrifice the flag."
Chuan Yong was overjoyed and kept kowtowing: "Your Majesty is generous! Your Majesty is generous! In the end, I will be devastated and repay your kindness of forgiveness!"
He is not a staunch die-hard to begin with - otherwise he would not obediently work for Qin. Nowadays, Xiong Wuliang and his Xionghu troops are so murderous that they have already frightened Chuanyong's courage. How can they dare to betray him again and again?
What's more - Lantian fell and 27,000 troops were overthrown... Even if he could return to the protection of Qin, he would never survive.
Qin's Law - Anyone who loses his army for no reason will die.
Since going back means death, Chuan Yong will have no choice but to be a dog for the Chu people from now on.
"Our army is going to attack Xianyang, you lead the way." Xiong Wuliang simply told Chuan Yong and returned to his sledge without looking back.
Compared with the cold weather outside, the inside of the sledge is really warm as spring.
Xiong Wuliang lowered the curtain of the sledge and poured some hot water to drink, which warmed his body that was stiff due to the cold wind.
Zhong Hua carefully gestured to the two soldiers around him. The two soldiers immediately understood and firmly 'protected' Chuan Yong, one on the left and the other on the right.
Chuan Yong did not dare to neglect and showed 100% enthusiasm. Under the supervision of two sergeants holding daggers, he honestly guided the Chu army...
Seven thousand elite soldiers were rushing towards Xianyang!
…
Qin State, Xianyang.
This winter was really not easy for the Qin State - Queen Mother Xuan and Wei Ran were so busy that they kicked the back of their heads.
Preparing food and grass, recruiting soldiers, solving the baggage problems of Bai Qi's 80,000-strong army, sending envoys to repeatedly argue with Han and Wei, and inquiring about the movements of the Han and Wei armies... Empress Dowager Xuan and Wei Ran were very busy!
Ying Ji, on the other hand, was relatively leisurely, just sitting in the palace, leaning his chin in a daze, and quietly looking at the distant palace wall every day.
He is waiting.
Waiting painfully.
Waiting for the young master to make Bai Qi, who can bring back Xiong Wuliang, who makes Yingji think about it day and night, and is unwilling to eat.
I hope you will return, I hope you will return...
I don’t want to eat and drink, and I don’t want to taste the food!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please come over." Just as Ying Ji's soul was wandering in the sky, a chamberlain came to deliver a message.
When Ying Ji heard the sound, he retracted his confused eyes, and his eyes became sharp again. He simply agreed, then got up and went to the Queen Mother Xuan's side.
But when Ying Ji entered the main hall, he saw Queen Mother Xuan and Wei Ran sitting together. The two seemed to be talking about something funny, so that Queen Mother Xuan was laughing so hard that she was so happy.
Ying Ji coughed lightly and cupped his hands: "I have met my mother and my uncle."
Queen Mother Xuan raised her head and greeted Ying Ji casually: "Ji'er is here, come here quickly."
Ying Ji walked over, and Queen Mother Xuan handed the former a letter and said with a smile: "Ji'er, open it and take a look."
"This is a letter written by Ying Zhuo to you."
The letter had clearly been opened... Ying Ji felt his blood boil for a moment, his temples were bulging, and he was extremely angry - Why did you two open the letter that Ying Zhuo wrote to me, Brother Wang, first? ?
In fact, the reason is very simple.
Ying Ji kept it secret about Xiong Wuliang for a long time, for two years! It was only in the end that there was no hope of recruiting, so he told the truth to the Empress Dowager Xuan... Of course, the Empress Dowager Xuan, who was in charge of power and arbitrariness in the world, smelled an unspeakable smell.
Ji'er wants to take charge personally. When the children grow up, they have their own ideas, right?
You have to watch this!
Since then, the guards around Ying Ji have changed again and again. Letters like this have to be handed over to Queen Mother Xuan and Wei Ran for inspection first... Ying Ji can't do anything but accept it angrily.
Think again about what Xiong Wuliang said in the wine shop - Empress Dowager Mi and Wei Ran will not let Ying Ji take charge easily...
Xiong Wuliang, everything is as expected...
Ying Ji felt really uncomfortable!
Suppressing all the emotions of grief and anger in his heart, Ying Ji's face did not show any strange color at all, and he slowly opened the letter sent by Ying Zhuo...
Ying Ji read the letter carefully, while Queen Mother Xuan, who had already read the contents of the letter, laughed softly and said, "This Ying Zhuo is really an outgoing girl."
"The last time I sent out the Black Ice Platform assassin, this little girl stopped him once."
"This time Qin and Chu are at war, Ying Zhuo actually wrote a letter and begged - saying that after Qin defeated Chu, he would not kill Quyang Hou Xiong Liang..."
"This little girl stayed in Mi Liang's mansion for more than half a year, sacrificing her life to protect Xiong Wuliang's life, and now she writes such a letter to beg for help... Judging from this, it is clear that she has fallen in love with that Marquis Qu Yang."
Wei Ran also smiled happily: "That's what my sister said."
Although Wei Ran had a bright smile on his face, he actually felt cruel in his heart - spare Xiong Wuliang's life?
Nonsense!
If Xiong Wuliang is really allowed to stay in Qin alive and become the prime minister of Qin, then what will I do?
Serving as a deputy to the damn Mi Liang child?
ridiculous!
The Qin army has an absolute advantage over the Chu army - after the beginning of spring, Bai Qi will definitely capture Xiong Wuliang and come back.
When the time comes, I will use some means at any cost to kill Xiong Wuliang on the road before he reaches Xianyang!
Empress Dowager Xuan was not aware of Wei Ran's cruel thoughts, but still smiled and said: "Since Princess Zhuo has such thoughts, then Xiong Wuliang is indeed an outstanding person..."
"After Baiqi captures Mi Liang in the spring of spring, we might as well promise the princess to Marquis Na Quyang - firstly, it will fulfill the princess's wish, which is a beautiful thing; secondly, it will also tie Xiong Wuliang firmly to our great Qin Dynasty. on top of the chariot.”
The more Empress Dowager Xuan thought about it, the happier she became -
yes! Why didn't I think of this move earlier?
After promising the princess to Xiong Wuliang, are you still worried that he will not work for me, Da Qin, in the future?
The smile on Wei Ran's face was stiff, and he kept saying yes.
Just at this moment, a loud shout came from outside the door: "Report... emergency military report from the front line!"
