Daqin: Assist Zulong at the beginning and become a public enemy

Chapter 363 Arrangements After Victory
Chapter 363 Arrangements After Victory
When Ying Gang and others safely returned to the city of Xingyang, the busy people in the city suddenly became excited.

Everyone gathered around Ying Gang and others, cheering for the team that had returned from victory.The crowd was so crowded that there were countless people who burned incense and worshiped the Taoist priests and those who carried the pots to lift the oats, and the scene was very lively.

Faced with the love and affection of the people under his rule, Ying Gang has to show some special skills, such as saluting the people immediately, or getting off his horse to help the white-haired old man kneeling by the roadside, and having some harmless small talk with a few naughty children. It was a joke, and the people present were so excited that they tearfully said that they were lucky in this life to meet such a good son as Ying Gang.

Finally, we reached the city gate amidst the singing of praises from all the people.

Wang Bi, Han Xin, Xin Sheng and others will all rush to the city gate in advance to greet Ying Gang.

The reason why he put on such a high profile is not only because Ying Gang is the prince, the most beloved son of His Majesty the Emperor.

At the same time, it is also because he dared to lead the cavalry to chase down the enemy at the most dangerous time, and maximize the victory of the Qin army.

This spirit of brave sacrifice deserves their admiration.

What's more, this time chasing and killing Ying Gang defeated Long Qie and others, only 2000 people actually beheaded tens of thousands of enemy troops.

And the damage on my own side is almost negligible.

Such a big victory is one of the few in the history of the Qin State. If measured by the reward system of the Qin Army, each of these soldiers who followed Ying Gang to the expedition could obtain a promotion to the fifth or sixth rank of title.

Such a good thing made all the soldiers of the Qin army have nothing but envy in their eyes.

"Congratulations, young master, on his triumphant return!"

Several people bowed respectfully.

Ying just got off his horse, looked at the people in front of him and said with a smile: "You generals, this really beats me."

Wang Ben sighed: "If there is no son, how can we vent our indignation? Now that the enemy army has been completely wiped out, there is no possibility of marching in the short term. As soon as the drought eases, our army will be able to go east immediately." Destroy the six countries in one go and reunify."

Han Xin and Xin Sheng also nodded in agreement.

"That's right." Ying Gang agreed.

They exchanged greetings for a while, Wang Ben stepped aside and said to Ying Gang, "Master, you are tired all the way, please go to the city early to rest."

Ying Gang did not refuse, and slowly entered the city with two thousand cavalry.

In the battle of Xingyang, although the Qin army won, it could only be regarded as a tragic victory.

Because of Wei Bao, all the cities in the Sanchuan area were severely damaged. As the most critical outpost for the Qin army to go east, repairing this place is the Qin army's top priority.

The severe drought in Guanzhong is becoming more and more serious. According to the news, even the water in the Wei River will bottom out. If this situation continues, all crops in the entire Guanzhong land may die this year.

Since the disaster relief began, all the major granaries in the Guanzhong area have been released.

But for millions of people, the daily consumption of food and grass is an extremely scary figure.

In order to save food, Ying Zheng, who originally wanted to hurry up and go east, had to slow down.

Fortunately, the land in the middle of Shu is still stable, otherwise the Qin army would really be beaten back to its original shape by the severe drought.

It was not easy for Ying Gang to return to the city.

After finally entering the city amidst the praises of all the people, and after arranging the deployment of the army, Wang Ben and others held a banquet in the mansion to welcome Ying Gang and celebrate this great victory by the way. After all the nutritious cutscenes were over, Ying Gang was relieved until the civil and military officials of Qin State whose mouths were dry from the flattering had almost finished.

Wang Ben, Han Xin, Zhong Limei, and Xin Sheng were left alone to learn about the big and small things that happened in the past few days.

Sitting down on the main seat in the hall, Ying Gang first breathed a long sigh of relief, and then complained lazily: "I'm exhausted. I must simplify these etiquette procedures for welcoming people and sending them off in the future. And the common people, Don’t have tens of thousands of people come to greet you every time. It’s not just a waste of time, but the people are also wasting their time.”

Wang Ben and the others, who also don't like vain and superficial manners, nodded their heads deeply, and Han Xin apologized with a smile: "My lord, please forgive me. I also know that my lord is a free and easy person and doesn't like these red tapes. I didn't organize it beforehand." The civil and military officials and the people of the city went out to greet him, but after the news of the young master's triumphant return came back, the people spontaneously went out of the city to welcome the young master's triumphant return, and I couldn't stop it, so I had no choice but to let them go."

"Sir, this is why the people love you." Xin Sheng flattered.

"That's ridiculous. All soldiers use their lives. I, the ministers of the Great Qin Dynasty, are not greedy for money in literature, and are not afraid of death in military affairs. I, Ying Gang, am just following the glory." Ying Gang said hypocritically and modestly, then sat up straight and asked: "Everyone , Have the Huns done anything new in the past few days?"

"Since Peng Yue's class division, we have been watching the situation there. From the current point of view, it seems that the Huns have no intention of changing their strategy, and they are still surrounding Handan."

Ying just nodded, and asked again: "Where's Daliang? Is there any news about Wei Bao and the others?"

"Of course there is. We are staring at this old neighbor and dare not relax."

Wang Ben said, and then added: "Since he and Chen Yu were defeated by us, they fled back without any shame, and because of their differences in opinions, there were some rifts after they returned. According to what we found out News, they seemed to be in a situation where they were wary of each other.”

Ying Gang heard a smile on his lips.

"The Kingdom of Wei is the most important part of our eastward journey. If we cannot destroy the Kingdom of Wei, our army will not be able to enter the Central Plains smoothly. Therefore, before destroying the other countries, we must first destroy the Kingdom of Wei. From now on, carefully Search for all the information on the Wei state, and if there is indeed an irreparable rift between Chen Yu and Wei Bao, we will pour fuel on them and let them kill each other completely."

"good idea."

"My son, right now I have only tens of thousands of soldiers left in Xingyang. If the nations make a comeback, we must bear the brunt of it. In my opinion, we should first explain the situation to His Majesty, and ask His Majesty to dispatch soldiers to come!"

Ying just shook his head: "You can also find an extremely serious problem from this fight. Why did the enemy's strength not match ours, but caused us so much damage?"

When several people heard the words, they all fell into deep thought. It was Han Xin who was the first to notice the problem, and replied, "There are a lot of people."

Win just nodded.

"Although the imperial army is strong, but because there are too many places to defend, it is impossible to deploy too many soldiers at one time. Therefore, we use around [-] troops each time, while the enemy troops often come in hundreds of thousands. Even if They are weaker than us, but a tiger is no match for a pack of wolves, and if things go on like this, our elite soldiers will not be able to stand it. Therefore, I plan to recruit and train soldiers here in Xingyang."

"This……"

Several of them are warriors on the battlefield. Hearing what Yinggang said, they all fell into deep thought.
