The next day, Jia Zhu entered the territory of Dongjun.
"Dongjun, the old place of the Wei State, in the fifth year of the First Emperor's reign, he sent General Meng Ao to attack Wei. He located Suanzao, Yan, Xu, Changping, Yongqiu, and Shanyang City, and captured twenty cities. At the beginning, Dongjun was established. "Li Si said, pointing to the map.
Zhao Si nodded and compared the current map with the previous map.
The Dongjun of the Qin Dynasty was probably around Puyang, located in the Central Plains region, including northeastern Henan and western Shandong.
"Central Plains..." Zhao Si sighed deeply, thinking secretly in his heart.
Chen Sheng is from Yangcheng.
Wu Guang was from Yangxia.
Chen Ping, a native of Yangwu.
All three are from the Central Plains...
Zhao Si firmly believes that the First Emperor intends to put him on the shelf. Now Zhao Si can be considered to be in a high position and close to the king. However, he is a returnee and has no connections in Da Qin. He has no followers, let alone trustworthy and capable. manpower at his disposal.
The only ones who could be trusted and used safely were the crew members who returned with him. However, most of the crew members were burdened with the big plan of opening up the sea, and most of them could not be used by Zhao Si. Zhao Si was also marked as a talented person who had come from humble beginnings during the turn of the Qin and Han Dynasties.
Zhao Si's historical knowledge was not very good. He had seen the birthplaces of these celebrities, but he did not remember them carefully. Fortunately, there were no entertainment activities in Daqin. He really remembered these things as things. After several months of effort, he also It can be retrieved.
Now Zhao Si is not a novice who has just traveled through time. After returning to Qin, he has read a lot of books and can understand the maps of Da Qin. Now he can also compare the existing maps of Da Qin with the modern maps of later generations.
Chen Sheng, Wu Guang and Chen Ping, all three are located in the Central Plains, the old land of Wei.
After leaving Guanzhong and arriving at Dongjun, the first stop of the great tour of the world was undoubtedly the old land of Wei.
These three named people seem to be in the bag.
"If I remember correctly, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang are still farmers now... As for Chen Ping, should he be nibbling brother now?"
Of these three people, Chen Ping must have come from a noble family, but they have also declined terribly.
Nowadays, Chen Ping has not married and started a business. He relies on his brother Uncle Chen to finance his study abroad. Uncle Chen's wife is dissatisfied because Uncle Chen has been taking care of his brother-in-law Chen Ping while Chen Ping is not engaged in production. Therefore, he feels resentful.
Chen Ping was a handsome man. Someone once asked Chen Ping: "How come you are so strong despite your poor family?" Chen Ping's sister-in-law was disgusted that Chen Ping did not participate in the family's production and labor, and replied: "I just eat some rotten vegetables." That’s all, it’s better not to have such a brother-in-law.”
Uncle Chen heard this and was so angry that he drove her away and abandoned her.
As for Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, it is no longer possible to examine whether Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were of noble origin, and there are different opinions in later generations.
Zhao Si prefers that both of them are of noble blood, but when it comes to Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, there is not much left.
Chen Sheng, Wu Guang and Chen Ping were all people from the old Wei Dynasty to be precise, so Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were able to play together.
Chen Ping was also from the old Wei Dynasty, so he defected directly to Chen Sheng and Wu Guang after the uprising, then to Xiang Yu, and finally to Liu Bang.
The First Emperor was touring the land of Wei, and these three people were the ones Zhao Si planned to win over along the way.
The three of them are now humble, and history has proven their qualifications.
What Zhao Si wanted to implement was the imperial relocation order, which was specifically targeted at big nobles. His family background was so good that Zhao Si himself did not dare to use it.
Chen Ping was suitable for making suggestions, gathering intelligence and conducting secret investigations. As for Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, he was the one who carried out the execution with a knife.
"In this way, the sentence "Princes and Generals are Ning Ning"... I'm afraid it will never appear again." Zhao Si felt a little regretful in his heart. This sentence really means a lot to the history of China.
"But wielding a sword to attack those nobles and nobles who rely on blood inheritance without learning or skills to destroy the local government and corrupt the government, isn't it just like the princes and generals?"
But the first stop is Dongjun.
"The road here is narrow and can only accommodate one carriage. It is blocked by strange rocks. It is difficult to summon so many strong men at once, and it is difficult to move the manpower. The prefect of Dongjun poured water on the fire, but it is still difficult to break..." Li Si Pointing to the official road where the strange stone is located on the map, he opened his mouth.
Zhao Si nodded and looked at the map mark. There were rock walls on both sides. A big stone was stuck there. It was impossible for people to get in too much, so they had to find a bunch of strong men to solve it.
The prefect of Dongjun County is also a loser. Such a big mess happened under his own rule. He knew that he would probably be held accountable, so he hurriedly tried to make amends. However, this guy couldn't even recruit enough strong men and didn't even know where to start. Collect everywhere.
In desperation, water and fire could not break it, but it further proved the miraculous power of the strange stone and aggravated the rumors.
"However, there are many strong soldiers accompanying them, so it is not difficult to move away. It's just that this place is dangerous and suitable for setting up an ambush." Zhao Si expressed his own evaluation.
…
On the other side, Wang Li carefully inspected the roads along the way, especially the narrow road where the strange rocks were located.
No matter how hard he stretched his hips, Wang Li had read military books and knew which places were dangerous and which places were suitable for setting up ambushes.
The First Emperor drove thousands of soldiers into his entourage. If the remnants of the Six Kingdoms did not rebel, it would be impossible to put the First Emperor in danger through a competition in military deployment.
The prefect of Dongjun had wine bags and rice bags, and they could only get a few hundred dead soldiers. After all, Dongjun was not very far from Guanzhong, and besides the prefect of Dongjun, Dongjun was not without other officials.
And if they were far away from the Chu land in Guanzhong and colluded with each other, the Xiang family could skillfully train private soldiers, but the number would not be much larger, and it would be impossible to defeat the First Emperor's carriage by attacking rashly.
Wang Li knew very well that the so-called assassination of the king and the killing of the king were nothing more than a small gain.
And with a small Bo Da, the numerical disadvantage must be made up from other places.
This area was suitable for setting up an ambush. Wang Lidu carefully inspected it, and sent soldiers to the emperor's command every hour to conduct repeated inspections.
If no abnormality is found once or twice, then do it three times, four times, five times, five times, or six times until the Emperor's drive passes smoothly.
He is not a military genius, but he can still use stupid methods.
"Dad...there are too many scouts..."
Wei Ji looked at his father, his eyes full of hesitation.
Based on the other party's persistent exploration, even if his father took a hidden path and climbed rocks to set up an ambush, it wouldn't take long for his father to be discovered.
This is sending death...
Death without any possibility of success.
"It's noon now..." Wei Qian looked at his son Wei Ji and smiled.
"If I don't go, King Qin will be able to pass smoothly after removing the boulder. At night, he can pass through this section of the road and rush to the palace. From then on, it will be a smooth journey." Wei Qian shook his head.
After all, this is the Central Plains area. After passing here, there are basically no conditions for ambush.
Wei Qian knew very well that he was going to die here, and he could not succeed in the assassination. The general who opened the way was extremely cautious, and the search was repetitive. There was no way that he could hide his intention to assassinate the First Emperor here.
All he had to do was delay time. Once an ambush was discovered, the First Emperor's troops would inevitably stop in a safe area and wait until the danger ahead was resolved before continuing.
This back and forth, coupled with the huge rocks blocking the road, delayed a lot of time. The First Emperor's motorcade could not reach the palace where it could rest before night came.
And on this road, the only place suitable for tens of thousands of people to stop and rest is the waterfall valley.
The terrain is open and there is running water...
Only in this way can his son take advantage of the opportunity.
"Go and wait..." Wei Qian looked at his son.
"Be careful, don't be impatient. After my assassination failed, the King of Qin must have been wary. I'm afraid he won't easily come in and out, attracting people's attention. Ying Zheng likes to create suspicions, so we must carefully distinguish them. The clothes of Zhao Gao and Meng Yi Do you remember the crown clearly?" Wei Qian asked seriously.
"Remember clearly!" Wei Ji nodded.
"good!"
"Later I will lead the dead men to climb the rock and take the dangerous road. You and the strong men will hide behind the waterfall. When the Emperor of the Qin Dynasty stops, you go out at night. Don't encourage others and go straight to the King of Qin's army!" Wei Qian said After that, without giving his son a chance to speak again, he led the three hundred dead soldiers and left holding the gun.
Because they had to climb rocks and take dangerous roads to set up ambush, they did not wear armor. Everyone was dressed in strong clothes, holding Qin swords, carrying soft bows on their backs, biting linen cloth in their mouths, and began to climb the cliffs without saying a word.
Wei Ji held two hammers and was wearing full armor... looking at the remaining elite dead soldiers behind him.
There are more than twenty people in total, all of them are carefully selected strong men, and everyone is wearing armor and holding a hammer.
I made the hammer myself, and the armor was given to me by Cang Haijun.
Looking at his father's leaving figure, Wei Ji knew that this would be the last time he and his father would see each other.
Wei Qian's assassination was just a cover-up, delaying the First Emperor's drive until he had to stop in the valley.
Once you go, you will never come back.
And Wei Ji also knew very well in his heart that no matter whether the assassination was successful or not, he would still be alive or dead.
He only has more than twenty people...
Even if he could successfully assassinate the First Emperor, he would not be able to escape death in the midst of thousands of troops.
"Clean the traces!"
"Walk!"
Wei Ji looked gloomy and spoke in a deep voice.
Wei Ji is not afraid of death!
When he was very young, he and his father witnessed the tragedies in the world, and the hatred for the subjugation of the country and the annihilation of the species took root from an early age.
He had a reason to die!
There is no room for compromise!
He just didn't want to live up to the opportunity his father had created for him with his life.
"Zhao Zheng, the maid girl!"
Wei Ji cursed and led more than 20 strong men straight to the valley.
He only hoped that Ying Zheng could get out of the car when he stopped, so that he could determine the carriage where the First Emperor was.
Of course, this possibility is slim.
"Zhao Gao!"
Wei Ji murmured!
King Zhao Gao has served as his attendant, and has received great favor. Wherever he is, he must be driven by the King of Qin!
This is what Wei Qian told Wei Ji.
Compared with the blind selection of one out of nine, it is obvious that the probability of success will be higher if the person who drives the car can tell the difference.
And he only has this chance!
It's his father who gave him the chance to buy with his life!
