Detective Qingyu Guard seemed a little embarrassed: "Uh..."
"We didn't catch Gong Suncheng - when we went there, the guy had already run away."
Hong Shitou was a little surprised, but didn't say anything.
Whatever!
Just run away.
Although he failed to capture the enemy general, it was considered incomplete - but Gongsun Cheng, a mere Gongsun Cheng, could not afford to make any waste at this moment.
"It doesn't matter - let's arrest him," Hong Shitou said.
The captured Pseudo-Shu soldiers were tied together and squatted in an open space. Hong Shitou, Chuan Yong and Chuan Kai gathered together. After discussing in low voices for a while, Chuan Yong walked up to the Pseudo-Shu soldiers. , cleared his throat——
"Second and third sons, listen - I am Chuan Yong, the young leader of the Chuan clan, and I am also the deputy general of the Ba people's rebel army!"
"I know that you were all coerced by the Qin people, so you had no choice but to sacrifice your lives for the Qin people."
"Whoever helps the Qin people do evil things can be reported and will be heavily rewarded - the rest of the innocent people can be given some dry food and go home!"
"If anyone wants to take revenge on the Qin people, you can also pick up weapons and join the rebel army!"
The prisoners were boiling.
Thunderous cheers... There is nothing to report. They are all defenders in the city and have little chance to follow the Qin people to burn, kill and loot.
Some rebel soldiers stepped forward and untied the ropes for the prisoners.
Some were so happy that they received three days of dry food, kowtowed repeatedly to Chuan Yong, Hong Shitou and others, and left with endless gratitude.
There are also quite a few people who have long hated the domineering Qin people.
So he spontaneously rolled up his left sleeve and joined the rebel army.
Chenggu City was recaptured by the rebels, and his parents and family were rescued from the rule of the Qin people. Naturally, they had nothing to worry about... A large number of people signed up to join the rebel army, and Chuan Yong smiled from ear to ear.
Subsequently, the rebels posted recruitment notices inside and outside the Chenggu city wall.
Anyway, there are still many weapons, and Bashu is not a place short of food.
As long as you sign up, all the captured Qin standard weapons will be distributed and incorporated into the rebel army.
In just three days, the number of rebels had swelled to more than 5,000.
Although a considerable number of them are recruits without much training, this is the case in the cold weapon era - as long as there is enough courage, even a ragtag group of traffickers and stooges can still fight.
Hong Shitou, on the other hand, led a thousand rebel troops to the front of Baoshui.
Here is the main transportation link between Qin and Bashu.
The Qin State spent ten years repairing the river, turning an unknown river into a usable canal.
The embankments on both sides of the river stand high, the river surface is spacious and the water is clear.
Hong Shitou secretly sighed a pity in his heart, and then waved his hand: "dig!"
"All rivers and canals must be destroyed!"
"We have ten days to destroy as many rivers as possible!"
As we all know - it is much easier to destroy than to build.
The Qin people recruited countless people from Bashu and it took ten years to build the Baoshui Canal. It was vulnerable to the shovels and hoes of a thousand people.
Large swaths of levees were torn down and the river became meandering again.
If the Qin people wanted to transport troops to the Bashu region, they would have to travel overland and march through the mountains and forests with difficulty...
In just ten days, the Baoshui Canal had been destroyed to a great extent by the rebels... Hong Shitou could only comfort himself in his heart - when Chu controls the Bashu land in the future, if he wants to restore the canal, he can use a lot of cement.
It might be much easier to build it again.
…
Chenggu fell into the hands of the rebels! The canal is destroyed!
The rebels rested in place for ten days, recruited soldiers on the spot...and then marched south, fighting against the Qin army stranded in Shu!
The local puppet Shu army was disheartened and rushed to defect.
The land of Bashu is already in chaos!
The rebels of the Shu people also took the opportunity to launch a massive uprising, echoing the rebels of the Ba people, and achieved fruitful results.
Ying Yun, the nominal ruler of the land of Bashu, was greatly panicked and ordered his puppet Shu troops to fight the fire everywhere... but with little success.
Even many puppet Shu troops who had just been recruited, with the weapons and food and wages distributed by Ying Yun, turned around and defected to the Ba people or the Shu people's rebels.
Thousands of miles away, Bashu is in chaos!
A few days later, an explosive news came - Chen Ping, the Prime Minister of Shu, killed Ying Yun, the Marquis of Shu, and established himself as the Marquis of Shu. Then he raised the flag of rebellion and openly announced that he would break away from Qin's control, in order to win over the people and fight for power.
At this point, the original land of Bashu already had four forces——
The new Shu Hou Chen Ping basically took over the political legacy and bureaucratic system left by the pseudo-Shu Kingdom, and has the strongest overall strength.
The Ba people's rebel army was led by Chuanyong and Hong Shitou.
The Shu rebels are known for their toughness and good fighting skills.
Finally, there are the remaining Qin officers and soldiers stranded in the Bashu area due to the destruction of the canal.
Among them, the Ba People's Rebel Army and the Shu People's Rebel Army were tacit alliances with each other, and they still refused to recognize the position of Shuhou that Chen Ping took over. Even if you take your toes, you can understand that this Chen Ping is not an 'anti-Qin righteous man' at all.
It's just that seeing that Qin's rule is over, as a high-ranking official of the pseudo-Shu Kingdom, he is afraid of being liquidated.
In addition, it is necessary to take the opportunity to fight for power.
As a result, there was another big melee in the land of Bashu——
The Shu army under Chen Ping fought not only against the Qin soldiers, but also against the Ba and Shu rebels.
The Ba People's Rebel Army and the Shu People's Rebel Army echoed each other and jointly fought against Chen Ping.
The remaining troops of the Qin people were fishing in troubled waters, taking advantage of the turmoil in Bashu to take advantage of the opportunity to rob homes and homes to support themselves. At the same time, these remnants of the Qin State hated Chen Ping's betrayal more than they hated the two rebel armies of Bashu and Bashu - so they fought very actively against Chen Ping.
It's a big fight.
Countries all over the world were shocked by the chaos in Bashu - it was a pity that they were too far away from this fertile land.
The only two countries that had the opportunity to directly send troops to intervene in the situation in Bashu were Qin and Chu.
…
Dachu, the capital of Ying.
The new overlord, King Huai of Chu, seems to be a little more rounded in appearance.
People are in high spirits when happy events happen - King Huai of Chu has been really happy in the past few years.
In the past year alone, King Huai of Chu Yunmengze formed an alliance and ascended to the position of overlord.
Then came the decline of Yan and the cessation of Qin... Qi came to proclaim itself a vassal, and envoys from Wei and Han traveled closely to the capital of Ying.
Although the result has not yet been finalized - there is about a 80% chance that Wei and South Korea will eventually surrender to the overlord of Chu.
King Huai of Chu was very proud!
The great Chu opened up its territory, and its civil and military power shocked the world!
All come from my hands.
I am truly a wise king!
"Go to court!" the waiter outside the door shouted loudly.
King Chu Huai stood up with a blushing face, shook his sleeves, and then, with the support of two muscular palace maids, walked out of the screen and came to the main hall.
Dozens of ministers were already standing below. When they saw King Chu Huai appear, they all bowed and bowed: "I pay my respects to the overlord!"
