The result of Wei Qian's battle was tragic.
More than a hundred dead soldiers, led by Wei Qian, launched a relentless charge.
They have a fatal belief...
Unfortunately, the outcome of the war will not be shaken just because the other party is determined to die.
They didn't even have decent armors. The armors sent by Lord Canghai were only about forty sets, most of which Wei Qian gave to his son.
They only have soft bows and bronze swords!
What they faced was the most elite and the only full-time army in the Qin Dynasty.
Their life-and-death counterattack did not arouse the fear of the old Qin people.
Wang Li gave orders and the flags waved!
The people of Lao Qin did not retreat even a step, without any fear in their eyes, and they all performed their duties.
Those who hold the shield hold the shield, those who hold the spear hold the spear, and those who hold the bow hold the bow.
Even if the enemy had already rushed in front of them, they did not make any other unnecessary movements or panic, but chose to trust their comrades.
Their eyes were cold and their actions were clean and decisive.
This is the most elite army in the Qin Dynasty, and possibly the most elite army in the world.
"Heaven..."
Wei Qian was very skilled and very strong. He rushed into the enemy's formation first, and after taking away the shieldman's buckler, he killed a Qin man with one sword.
After opening a hole, the dead soldiers surrounded Wei Qian and wanted to cause greater casualties to the Qin army.
But that's it, another shield hand came up to fight back with a shield.
Densely packed spears poked out, the shield hand stepped aside, and another Qin soldier came out with a bronze sword!
They were so strict that they didn't even take an extra step...
Wei Qian is still fighting bloody battles. He has killed three Qin soldiers. After all, as a leader, Wei Qian has armor on his body.
But the dead soldiers behind him had fallen down and died one after another.
They had already rushed in front of him, but he did not see any changes in the Qin army's formation.
Even the swords have been swung at the Qin people, and they continue to fight step by step, like robots...
Until the second before death, they were still doing what they were supposed to do.
They don't look like humans...
Like a tiger, like a wolf!
"The Qin of tigers and wolves! The Qin of tigers and wolves!"
Wei Qian roared and launched his final charge.
However, that’s it!
This is not a hot-blooded show, and it does not mean that you can move forward just by being determined to die.
His last ripple did not cause considerable damage to the Qin army.
An unknown Qin soldier's spear penetrated his throat. Wei Qian's eyes widened with anger and he stared at the other person's face intently.
Until the last moment, he could not see a trace of fear in the opponent's eyes, or the surprise of capturing the enemy's head.
The unknown Qin soldier just drew out his spear in a determined manner, continued to perform his task, and continued to strangle the remaining dead soldiers. He did not even look back at Wei Qian's body.
Because there will be colleagues who are responsible for calculating heads and cutting off Wei Qian's head.
Wei Qian was determined to die, and the soldiers he led were also dead soldiers.
But what about these Qin soldiers who opened the way for the king?
Not only that, they were selected from millions of Qin troops, had been on the battlefield for many years, and practiced day and night. They did not need to farm or grab credit.
No one will appropriate their credit. They receive the most generous rewards and eat the best food.
They had the best armor and the sharpest weapons, and their homes were well settled.
This is the direct bodyguard of the First Emperor!
It is their instinct to obey orders and have no distracting thoughts.
"A brave man!"
The war ended quickly.
Snap, very quickly...
The handover between the two armies took less than half an hour.
The enemy troops were completely wiped out, and the Qin army suffered a total of 110 casualties.
Twenty-three of them were killed, 80 were slightly injured, and seven were seriously injured.
On the contrary, Wang Li was cautious in front and wasted a lot of time.
"Catch them alive and separate them for interrogation!" Wang Li gave the order!
"Cut off his head and present it to the king!"
There were six prisoners alive, so Wang Li naturally wanted to interrogate them carefully.
The opponent saw the battle situation defeated and committed suicide with swords, but there were still a few prisoners who were knocked unconscious.
For Wang Li, this assassination was a close call. This army that only belonged to the imperial power was too powerful. Wang Li felt that they could end this assassination so quickly and concisely without even having to give orders. The battle takes even less time.
"General, they all committed suicide by taking poison..."
Wang Li, who was cleaning the battlefield, received bad news.
Not a single one was left alive.
Dead soldiers, dead soldiers!
If things don't work out, you'll die!
Wang Li didn't have many surprises. This assassination was expected. Now that the assassination was over, Wang Li felt relieved.
"In that case, let's go and report it!" Wang Li waved his hand and then looked towards the long and narrow mountain road.
The place chosen by these assassins is really good!
The road was narrow and crowded, and there were huge rocks blocking the way forward, as well as climbing rocks and taking dangerous paths to ambush him. If he hadn't noticed it, these more than 300 dead soldiers would have really brought great risks to the First Emperor.
This is a standard long and narrow terrain. No matter how many people there are, they can't get in for a while. The First Emperor fell into it, and it was like being dumped by the opponent.
"Continue to conduct repeated inspections to guard against other ambushes. I will summon your Majesty and set off!" Wang Li said seriously and ordered to continue repeated inspections according to the original plan and continue to conduct searches every half an hour.
The assassin climbed up from the cliff once, no one knows if there will be a second time.
Wang Li simply sent people to guard the cliffs. He directly sent soldiers to climb the cliffs on both sides to guard them to prevent any accidents from happening.
Wang Li would not relax his vigilance until the Emperor's troops arrived in the open area.
…
On the other side, the First Emperor's drive stopped for more than an hour.
Nuo Da's convoy stopped and moved, and Wang Li was cautious by nature, so the battle ended slowly. After the battle, Wang Li continued to survey, so it had already been two hours before the driving force started to move.
However, the entourage was not surprised at all, and even felt that Wang Li was faster.
I have been traveling through Guanzhong and it was very comfortable, but for those who have followed the First Emperor on more than one tour of the world, being assassinated after leaving Guanzhong is actually a common occurrence.
Most of the assassins were just like this assassination. They couldn't even see the First Emperor's command before they were discovered and killed by the pioneers.
They couldn't even force the First Emperor to stop his drive. They had all been completely dealt with before the First Emperor's drive stopped.
The assassination of the king and the killing of the king were intolerable to the kings of later generations, but to the First Emperor, it could only be regarded as an episode to lighten the mood.
"The front has been cleared. There are three hundred assassins. They have all been killed. We checked along the way and there are no other assassins."
"More than three hundred people, what a big deal!"
Li Si's eyebrows moved slightly, and his tolerance for the prefect of Dongjun had obviously reached its limit.
"The head of the assassin has been sent. Your Majesty would like to check it..."
"No need, continue on your journey!" The First Emperor waved his hand.
"Inform the soldiers to send all the assassins' heads!" Li Si's face showed a cold light.
"How much paper do you have there?" Li Si suddenly looked at Zhao Si.
"There are still quite a few, and Xianyang is already expanding production. It won't be long before civil and military officials will have no shortage of paper to use." Zhao Si, who was eating melon, looked at the cold-faced Li Si and realized Li Si's mood Not very good.
"The paper in your hand is temporarily useless, so just give it to me evenly." Li Si said in a deep voice.
"I'll take it if Mr. Li wants it. Besides, this is government property, so how can it be counted as mine? I'm just keeping it temporarily," Zhao Si said.
Li Si nodded, then looked at the First Emperor and bowed.
"Your Majesty, I would like to organize an arresting government with the main purpose of pacifying the weak, and draw portraits of all the dead men who were killed, and conduct a thorough investigation in Dongjun, from the county guard to the officials, and even to the homes of nobles. Once relevant traces are found, , regardless of the evidence, arrest them all before interrogating them." Li Si spoke sincerely.
The First Emperor smiled when he heard this.
"allow!"
"You are responsible for the promotion and replacement of officials, and Dun Ruo is responsible for the inspection of the Dongjun assassins!"
Li Si received a satisfactory answer. Dun Ruo was responsible for investigating and arresting people, while Li Si was responsible for replacing people and taking over the East County Government.
"Let's go..."
The First Emperor waved his hand.
Drive and set off.
Zhao Si and Li Si withdrew, Zhao Si drove for the king, and Li Si went to discuss cooperation matters with Dun Ruo.
The main driver is always Zhao Si, but the co-pilot changes frequently.
It started with Hu Hai and Meng Yi. After Hu Hai was kicked out of the cab by the First Emperor, Li Si and Meng Yi took turns as co-pilots.
As for Zhao Gao, he worked as a co-pilot for a day yesterday and has only been traveling for one day. Maybe the First Emperor remembered it? Maybe, in short, the number of times Zhao Gao served as a co-pilot can be ignored.
After driving for a long time, the road became narrower and narrower, and the rectangular convoy gradually turned into a straight line due to the road conditions.
In the end, it was so narrow that only a carriage could pass.
"This is really a dangerous place. No wonder the assassins want to set up an ambush here. In this kind of road condition, the front and rear cannot communicate. If they really want to ambush them, they might actually be able to make some noise." Zhao Si looked up at the dangerous place and sighed.
"Where is this?"
Li Si jumped on the carriage and looked at the steep rock walls and towering mountains on both sides.
“This mountain is not too high after all, the cliff is not too steep after all, the climb is not only strenuous, but the danger is not too great, the road is not too narrow, and can accommodate at least five or six people passing at the same time. It’s just that the frame has difficulty moving in it.” Li Si smiled.
Li Si's evaluation is very pertinent. After all, the official road can accommodate a six-horse carriage. How narrow and dangerous can it be?
In some places, there are some passes that can only be opened by one man!
Not to mention passing the bicycle frame, it is a terrifying experience for just one person.
In the land of Bashu, it is still difficult to build roads extending in all directions. There are still a large number of barbarians who refuse to submit to the king. Some barbarians even enjoy autonomy and do not have to perform corvee service. Why?
