"General, what should we do now?"
Knowing everything, the deputy general asked.
"Even if King Sushen runs away, he probably won't be able to get far. You personally lead the troops and chase them towards the north. You must capture King Sushen and the others. If they really resist, behead them on the spot!"
Just now, their general had held his head high and confidently led his army out of the city to fight.
Therefore, Meng Tian speculated that they must not have known that they would be defeated at that time, so King Sushen would never run away.
It was probably after the defeat of Su Shen's army that King Su Shen led his men to escape.
The king of a country is so pampered that his foot strength must be poor. He will definitely not be able to run far in such a short period of time. It is too late to catch up now!
Da Qin finally reached its current situation. He must not bring hidden dangers to Da Qin!
As long as we know the direction, we must recover all King Sushen and those important ministers!
"Yes! General, please rest assured!"
The deputy general accepted the order, shouldered his gun, and went to do it immediately.
Meng Tian led his men to clean up the battlefield.
At about ten minutes in the middle of the night, the deputy general and his men, accompanied by a group of ministers and King Sushen, came back slowly!
Like a defeated rooster, everyone walked back to their palace reluctantly with heavy steps and drooped heads!
"General, we have brought everyone back!"
The deputy general came to the big tent and reported to Meng Tian as if he was taking credit for his actions.
Meng Tian looked around and nodded, "Okay, find someone to take custody of him, and we will take him to Xianyang with other prisoners tomorrow!"
After the war in Sushen ended, soldiers were assigned to guard the area.
Even if their mission for this trip is completed, they can leave to return to Xianyang tomorrow and return to His Majesty!
Before they arrived in Xianyang, they sent someone to send news back to Xianyang in advance, which made Ying Zheng laugh out loud.
"Okay...! Haha! Meng Tian's sword is still young, and he successfully wiped out both Fu Yu and Su Shen in such a short period of time!"
When Ying Zheng received the news, he couldn't stop praising him in the court.
As Meng Tian's younger brother, Meng Yi naturally felt proud!
At the same time, I am even more grateful to Ying Feiyu.
Without the recommendation of His Highness the Crown Prince, it would have been impossible for my brother to get such a good job!
"well……!"
Ying Zheng smiled and sighed as if he suddenly remembered something.
"Meng Tian has already returned to the court with his troops, but there is still no news about the 300,000 troops heading west by boat!"
Calculating carefully, it has been more than a month since Han Xin left, but so far, there is no news at all, which makes Ying Zheng very anxious.
"Father, Fuyu is not too far from Xianyang, so it is relatively convenient to send news. However, the Maurya Dynasty is too far away from Xianyang, so it is very inconvenient to send news. It is normal that no news has been sent back at this time...!"
Ying Feiyu comforted him, "But father, don't worry, as long as they follow the route given by my son, they will be able to arrive smoothly. We just have to wait patiently!"
"Well! That's all we can do...!"
Ying Zheng responded and nodded, "When you go back to deliver supplies to the Western Expedition Army, you must remember to bring two telegraph machines with you. In this way, we can know the situation over there while sitting in Xianyang. !”
The craftsmen worked hard all night, and the first batch of telegraph machines were finally built.
Due to the small quantity, only a few units were released except for three provinces and six ministries.
Being able to send two sets to Han Xin and others shows how much Ying Zheng attaches importance to the Western Expedition!
"good!"
Ying Feiyu smiled and nodded.
The imperial court did not want to do the telegraph business, so all these matters were passed on to Ying Feiyu.
Ying Feiyu all passed it on to Ying Heng again, and he ended up in peace!
"Zhang Aiqing, Chun Aiqing, how are you preparing for the conferment of Zen on Mount Tai?"
After deciding on the Feng Chan, Ying Zheng ordered the two ministries to prepare.
After so long, I must be almost ready, so I asked.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. All the food and fodder have been prepared. We have also sent a message to the local officials and asked them to prepare it over there!"
Zhang Han responded with his hands raised.
Nowadays, all travel is by train, so there is no need to prepare too many things, as long as enough food for two days is enough.
When we get to the local area, local officials will naturally arrange all the food and accommodation!
"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Rites has also prepared the items needed for the sacrifice and is ready to go at any time!"
The Ministry of Revenue has no problem, and the Ministry of Rites has no problem. They don't have to pay anyway.
As for the preparations for the sacrifice, it is not just about having the money, but it can be prepared in minutes!
"Okay! Hahaha! Let Taishi Ling choose an auspicious day later, and then we'll set off!"
There was good news one after another today, and Ying Zheng was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.
…
The time for Feng Chan was set in half a month.
During this period, Meng Tian happened to lead his troops back to Xianyang.
Before entering the city, far away, I saw various factories standing outside the city, with large chimneys reaching into the sky, constantly emitting white smoke.
"Xianyang is really different from before!"
When Meng Tian left, this place was still a wasteland, and the grass was taller than the people.
Now it has completely changed. The factory is busy and the sound of various machines is endless!
When they arrived at the city gate, the defenders recognized the armor they were wearing at a glance, conducted a brief interrogation, and let them in!
After entering the city, Meng Tian felt even more emotional when looking at the bustling streets!
"General, Xianyang is so lively!"
The soldiers looked around and couldn't help but marvel at the bustling Xianyang City.
"Yes! In just a few years, Xianyang has developed so fast!"
"General, not only Xianyang, but also our Shang County has changed not a little bit. His Royal Highness is definitely responsible for all of this!"
The deputy general said happily.
"Yes! Without His Highness the Crown Prince, Daqin would not be able to develop as it is today! Without His Highness the Crown Prince, we would not have this opportunity to make meritorious deeds!"
Before Meng Tian led his troops to the expedition, he had already received a letter from his younger brother Meng Yi.
It clearly states how Ying Feiyu recommended him to be the commander-in-chief.
So Meng Tian is very grateful to Ying Feiyu!
He also didn't expect that the two only met for a period of time during the War of the Huns, and then had no contact with each other again.
Several years later, His Royal Highness still remembered him and gave him such a good opportunity!
"yes!"
The deputy general nodded in agreement.
Not only did he thank the prince, but he also wanted to thank General Meng Tian.
If it weren't for General Meng Tian's appreciation and promotion, he wouldn't be able to achieve what he has today!
The enemy forces around Da Qin have been wiped out. This time he returned to Xianyang to receive meritorious services and titles. In the future, he will stay in Xianyang as an official and be granted the title of wife and son.
"Send the order, please don't just wait and see. If you turn around and fall behind, their rewards will be lost!"
Meng Tian specifically turned around to explain.
"General, don't worry. Each of these monkey cubs is better than the last. It is absolutely impossible for them to fall behind!"
The deputy general responded with a smile and ordered someone to pass on the message.
