Battle for hegemony at the end of the Qin Dynasty in the military god system

Chapter 47 Meng Tian (1)

Although Yangzhou is a border land, the business of Yangzhou City is still very prosperous because Lu Buwei, the former prime minister of the Great Qin Dynasty, attached great importance to commerce and pioneered trade with the surrounding nomads.Jin Zi and the others followed Yan Jiu's subordinates all the way, and they were also surprised to see the trading scene of people coming and going. Jin Jin asked in puzzlement: "Aren't these nomads our enemies? Letting them enter the city for business will be no problem." ?"

Yan Jiu's subordinates replied: "My lord, since Lord Meng Tian conquered the Xiongnu, the surrounding nomads like the Xiongnu have become much more honest, and our inspection of entering the city is very strict. These nomads must enter the city. With the passport issued by our Daqin, we are not allowed to carry weapons, and the items to be traded can only be exchanged for cloth, daily necessities such as tea, ironware, grain and grass, etc. We are prohibited from exchanging items that are valuable to the enemy."

Jin Jin nodded. He didn't know much about business, so he felt that there was no problem with this approach, so he didn't ask any more questions. However, Sha Pojun appreciated this approach very much. I know the economy very well. Now Yangzhou’s approach not only greatly increases the income, but also alleviates the conflict between the nomads and the Great Qin. If it can continue to operate for a long time and assimilate these nomads, it will serve multiple purposes. The person who put forward such an opinion People are indeed talented.

Not long after, Jin Zi and others were led by Yan Jiu's subordinates to the Yangzhou Prison. Behind the Yangzhou Prison is the Yangzhou Yamen. The blue walls are covered with red paint, giving people a bloody feeling. Jin Zi and the others entered Yangzhou Prison following the steps of the jailers. After entering, they found that there was a screen wall inside the prison door, with the four characters of Yangzhou Prison engraved on it.After entering the prison gate, after turning a few turns, there is an aisle about one meter wide. On both sides of the aisle are two rows of low cells, where ordinary prisoners are held; Sha Pojun calmed down after being scolded, but Sha Pojun had never seen such a scene, and expressed sympathy for these prisoners living in the dark and damp prison, but he was not a saint, and would not make untimely actions out of sympathy.At the north end of the aisle, turn to the west at a right angle to the inner prison, which is dedicated to detaining death row criminals.Meng Tian was imprisoned in the deepest part of the prison, and a group of people went around and finally saw Meng Tian.

Sha Pojun and the others thought to themselves, luckily they robbed the imperial decree, if they came directly to the prison to rob the prisoners, they might not be able to find where Meng Tian is, and the commotion would be too loud.

The cell where Meng Tian lives is very high, and there is a small window on the high wall, from which there is a glimmer of light, like a glimmer of hope for the prisoners held here, the jailer introduced to Jin Jin that Meng Tian’s life This cell is the best one in the inner prison, with windows, and candles are often lit in the cell, and they also provide the best food, with low tables and stone beds covered with straw.

Jin Zi and the others looked into the cell, and saw a middle-aged man in ragged clothes and disheveled hair lying on the bed. There were several wine jugs scattered beside the stone bed, and some black steamed buns were eaten on the table.

Sha Pojun used his eyes to detect the middle-aged man
Character: Meng Tian

Occupation: Warrior

Skills: Ghost Scheme, Montessori Art of War, Cavalry Master (can train special arms: light cavalry outside the Great Wall), Montessori marksmanship, calmness, bravery

Sha Pojun was startled by Meng Tian's force, he must have been able to trap him here, he should have taken the initiative to go to jail.

Jin Jin pretended to be angry and said, "Do you still serve wine here?"

The jailer was so frightened that he quickly waved his hand and said, "How dare you give wine to General Meng, you little one! It was given to General Meng by the old acquaintances of General Meng in the army."

Jin Zi squinted at the jailer and asked, "So that's the case! Then do you know who they are?"

When the jailer heard that the officer in front of him actually pursued this matter, he knelt on the ground and cried, "I heard that Mr. Wang Li was here when I was on duty, so I don't know about the rest."

Seeing this, Jin Zi knew that the show should not go too far, so he waved his hands and said, "Let's forget about it, let's go see Meng Tian!" Then he pointed to the jailer and said, "Our conversation will be very confidential later, you know Where should you go!"

Hearing what Jin Zi said, the jailer resigned repeatedly as if he was receiving an amnesty.

Seeing the jailer walking away, Jin Zi called everyone into the cell. After entering, Jin Zi put down his vigilance and said with a smile, "How is my performance?"

Everyone gave their thumbs up and praised Jin Jin's acting skills. Meng Tian saw that this group of people had been busy chatting after they came in, and couldn't help coughing a few times.

Jin Zi slapped his head and shouted, "Forget about business!"

Sha Pojun ordered Xie Feng and Zhou Tong to guard the door, Wang Li finally let go of his guard, cried and hugged Meng Tian, ​​and shouted: "Brother Meng! Look at me! I'm Wang Li!" About to erase the camouflage, Meng Tian held Wang Li down.

Meng Tian said calmly: "As soon as you enter the door, I know it's you. This disguise is very strong. Even I can tell you by intuition. If you erase it now, how can you get out later?"

Wang Li nodded, and then said in a trembling voice, "Brother Meng, I went to Xianyang to meet Hu Hai."

Meng Tian didn't speak, just listened quietly.

Wang Li continued: "Hu Hai's situation is not good either. Great Qin is now completely controlled by the Yin-Yang faction, and Hu Hai is just their puppet controlling Qin. Brother Meng, you and the Meng family have all been killed."

When Meng Tian heard the tears, he couldn't help but shed tears, he grabbed Wang Li with trembling hands, choked up and said nothing.

Seeing the sadness of the familiar man in front of him, Wang Li felt even more heartbroken, tears streaming down his face.

Sha Pojun urged: "General Meng, Wang Li, now is not the time to talk about the past, these things can be discussed after we go out!"

Seeing that Wang Li was not in good condition, Li Shiqi stepped forward to support Wang Li and said to Meng Tian, ​​"General Meng, we are here this time to rescue you!" In front of Meng Tian.

Meng Tian grabbed the imperial decree, and after reading it, he cried loudly: "I, Meng Tian, ​​have committed a serious crime. I started from Lintao, went to Liaodong to build the Great Wall, and dug ditches for more than [-] miles. It is impossible not to dig out the ground veins during this time. This is my crime. ah!"

Li Shiqi knew that now was not the time for Meng Tian to blame himself, so he shouted loudly: "Do you know how Qin Shihuang died! Do you know how Fusu died! Do you know how many pillars of Great Qin died!"

Meng Tian stared at Li Shiqi in a daze, Li Shiqi saw that Meng Tian had reacted, and continued, "They all died at the hands of Hu Hai! Hu Hai killed all his brothers and sisters, including the baby who was still in the swaddle. The heads of Daqin Dongliang in Hu Hai's hands can be piled up into a [-]-meter-high Jingguan, are you so eager to join them now?"

Meng Tian looked at Li Shiqi in disbelief. At this moment, Wang Li shouted eagerly: "Your Highness Hu Hai can't help himself, you all know that!"

Meng Tian looked at Wang Li again.

Li Shiqi replied in a low voice: "It is true that Hu Hai is a pawn in the hands of the Yin-Yang faction, and he did not become a pawn of the Yin-Yang faction willingly, but because of his greed for life and fear of death, these people all died."

Wang Li sat paralyzed on the ground and didn't reply for a while, Meng Tian was also shocked by the information they revealed, he was full of anger, he didn't expect the Yin Yang faction to dare to be so unscrupulous.
