The Jagged Empire of Daqin

The bet is a bit high, if you lose, you lose everything, and all your vitality is wiped out.

As for whether to consider the participation of the Great Qi Empire, Ying Chang has also considered it, and does not think that the Qi Empire has the courage to send troops to the Jin Empire, because the Qi Empire is rich and rich, but the combat effectiveness of the army is appallingly low, there is no way, The Qi Empire puts more emphasis on business than military, and the status of generals and soldiers is very low. First-rank military officers are not as powerful as third-rank civil officials, and the military power of the Qi Empire is basically controlled by civil officials.

"This is the only way..." Ying Chang sighed helplessly.

"Your Majesty..."

Many ministers were ready to move, wanting to tell the pros and cons, but Ying Chang stretched out his hand and interrupted abruptly: "You don't need to say more, I have always believed that human affairs are governed by the destiny, and at present, this is the only way to get Daqin out of the predicament!"

"You may say that once I lose the bet, my Daqin will fall into a more difficult predicament, but you must know that once my Daqin adopts the strategy of truce and self-cultivation, I will be completely led by the nose, because this way, It simply cannot withstand external blows!"

"Let me give you an analogy. For example, my Daqin cultivated for four or five years, and my national power has gradually increased, but what if the Jin Empire sends troops again? Even if I, Daqin, win in the end, but the four or five years of cultivation will bring great benefits. The national strength of the country will definitely be emptied, so what's the point of our Daqin's self-cultivation?"

"You may also say that the Jin Empire is also suffering. They also need to recuperate and have no extra energy to attack our Great Qin. If some of you think so, I can tell you clearly that the Jin Empire does not need the Qin Empire. The Jin Empire has a vast territory and a large population. There are so many, they must recover faster than us!"

In the end, Ying Chang chose to take a gamble. If he didn’t gamble, he would never succeed. Even if the Jin Empire showed mercy and refused to fight the Qin Empire, the Qi Empire would never allow the Qin Empire to recuperate for a long time. Because the Qi Empire just wanted a half-dead Qin Empire, so as to ensure the safety of their western part of the Qi Empire.

All the ministers fell silent, frowning slightly, thinking about what Ying Chang said just now. This matter is not a trivial matter. They can't make up their minds for a while, and they are also under pressure. Fortunately, they supported His Majesty at the beginning. If they lost the bet, they would regret it and hate themselves for not dissuading His Majesty back then.

If they don't support, and Ying Chang forcefully issued the order, they will feel ashamed and regret why they didn't support Ying Chang when they win the bet. If they lose the bet, they still hate themselves for not admonishing His Majesty to death. Abandon this will.

Dilemma, not knowing what to do, is talking about them now.

Yang Ze slowly got up from the ground, saluted with his body wet, and said with a very solemn face: "Chen, I would like to support Your Majesty, even if I die nine times, I don't regret it!"

Jia Luo didn't hesitate anymore, and got up from the ground, shook the water stains on his body, bent over with a very solemn expression, and said: "I support your Majesty's decision, and I have never regretted nine deaths!"

Chang Zifei also stood up, but he didn't speak. Of course he didn't need to speak. He was the one who proposed the plan. Isn't it a slap in the face to object?Slapping yourself in the face is small, but hitting Ying Chang's face is big.

The three elders all stood up to express their support, and the other ministers no longer hesitated. They got up from the ground one after another and shouted in unison: "Your minister waits for a second opinion!"

As for those generals who also stood up, but they just saluted and did not make a statement, because this kind of thing is not about the generals at all. Rising from the heart.

"Chang Xiangxiang!" Ying Chang snorted softly.

Chang Zifei took a step forward with a solemn expression, only to hear Ying Chang say in a deep voice: "The left general Yang Long and the right general Yang Hu ordered the left general to lead [-] Yang's troops to Yangguan, and the right general to lead [-] Yang's troops." To attack Nanyang, only [-] troops are left to garrison Xiguan!"

"what?"

After the words fell, the officials were shocked, Yang Ze couldn't help frowning and said: "Your Majesty, is it too rash to attack Nanyang?"

"If you want to gamble, you can bet big. If you don't break, you can't stand. If you break the boat, you will win!" Ying Chang said in a deep voice with a firm attitude.

"My minister draws up the decree immediately!" Chang Zifei replied with a solemn expression, then took a blank piece of paper beside Ying Chang, and began to scribble it with a pen.

Seeing this, Yang Ze fell silent helplessly.

The handsome tent became quiet again like this, and the downpour outside seemed to lighten up, and the sound of the rain could not be heard.

When the rain stopped and the smoke began to rise, a large pot was set up in the Yangguan camp, and the soldiers took out dry tree trunks to light a fire. Meat, grain and meat are cooked together.

There were also soldiers who lit a fire to dry their wet clothes. For a while, the Yangguan camp was full of shirtless people, and the women lit a fire in the camp to dry their clothes.

After Chang Zifei drew up the decree, Ying Chang took out the seal of Emperor Qin and stamped it on. Although it was not an imperial decree of gold silk and satin, it was just a piece of plain white paper, but with the seal of Emperor Qin on it, the value of the white paper skyrocketed. He often sent scouts to pass the letter to Xiguan.

According to the distance from here to Xiguan, the fast horses are rushing and rushing all night. It is estimated that they will arrive at Xiguan in half a month. Of course, if there is only one scout and one horse, it will definitely not be delivered in half a month. The scouts will change people and horses at the post station. of.

Three o'clock in the afternoon!

After a short rest, Ying Chang and the others felt much better. After the old Qin people in the Yangguan camp were full of food and drink, Ying Chang ordered to assemble.

Nearly [-] old Qin people learned about the assembly, and hurriedly stood in line. The old Qin people really wanted to stand in order, but overall, it was a mess, no different from a mob, but no one said a word about it, because they said That's bullshit.

More than [-] regular soldiers stood in front of the general's platform with tired faces, and the rest of the old Qin people stood behind them. A soldier with one arm, this soldier kept his head down, swaying left and right from time to time and looked around, as if there was someone beside him.

This person is Wang Dong. After a battle, there are only three people left in a thousand remnants, but he is the only one who is 'unscathed'. The other two remnants have old wounds and new wounds. Down is a problem.

Chapter 176 Huben General Wang Dong!

After winning the second wave of defensive battle, he was both happy and sad, and he was full of guilt. Because of him, a thousand remnants were basically dead, and his brothers were all dead. Sometimes, Wang Dong wanted to commit suicide. Go down to accompany the brothers, but he reached an agreement with the brothers before going into battle.

The agreement is that if anyone survives, they will visit their family members on their behalf and say sorry to them.

With heavy responsibilities on his shoulders, Wang Dong didn't want to let them down.

step...step...

There was a sound of treading water, and everyone saw Ying Chang leading a hundred officials walking towards this side. At this point, the old Qin people and soldiers knelt down on one knee, and shouted respectfully and devoutly: "We pay homage to Your Majesty. , Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Ying Chang's eyes were bright and energetic, and he strode towards the general platform with strides, while the rest of the officials walked towards Wang Dong and saluted Wang Dong to express their respect. Wang Dong looked at the ministers standing next to him, and saw the ministers Saluting to myself, I couldn't help being flattered and uncomfortable.

But even though he was uncomfortable all over, his heart was still full of excitement and emotion.

Worth it!

Everything you do is worth it!

Standing on the general's platform, Ying Chang looked around at everyone, then raised his hand and said: "All the generals are flat!"

Once you enter the barracks, you are a soldier of the Great Qin Dynasty!

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

All the soldiers thanked one after another, the voices were jumbled, there were the childish voices of children, the vicissitudes of old people, the soft voices of women, and the shouts of soldiers from the regular army of the Great Qin Dynasty. , looking intently at the Great Qin Emperor Yingchang on the general platform.

With a solemn expression, Ying Chang raised his hands to make a composing gesture, bent down slightly, saluted nearly [-] old Qin people and three to four thousand great Qin soldiers, and said at the same time: "Yangguan is safe, and your contribution is indisputable." , I would like to thank you all!"

"Your Majesty, this is what we should do!"

"As an old Qin person, I have the responsibility to defend Great Qin!"

"We should thank Your Majesty. It was Your Majesty who led the Daqin warriors to resist the Jin dog. Are you right?"

"Yes! Long live Your Majesty! Long live Great Qin!"

The old Qin people and soldiers were both excited and moved, they clenched their fists and shouted.

"Defend Yangguan to the death! Defend Yangguan to the death!" Du Changjing raised his arms and shouted solemnly.

"Defend Yangguan to the death!"

"Defend Yangguan to the death!!"

In the blink of an eye, the passion of the old Qin people was ignited by Du Changjing. The voice was not neat at first, but then it became more and more tidy, and the voice became louder. cheers.

People are locked in, and people are dead!

I don't know if God was moved by the heart of the old Qin people who vowed to defend Yangguan to the death. A few rays of sunlight shone through the dark clouds, and a ray of sunlight happened to shine on Ying Chang, making Ying Chang even more eye-catching.

"Long live Great Qin! Long live Great Qin! Long live Great Qin!!"

Seeing that God seemed to have appeared, the old Qin people and the soldiers shouted even harder, and the fighting spirit and the will to die in their hearts climbed to the peak.

Ying Chang raised his hand at this time, signaling to be quiet. Seeing Ying Chang's gesture, everyone fell silent, only to see Ying Chang said loudly: "In this battle, I saw countless soldiers who fought bloody for the Great Qin, and I was very pleased. I was moved again, and the one who moved me the most was Wang Dong, the head of the Sixth Battalion and the Third Commander!"

"Your Majesty called me?"

Wang Dong, who was at the forefront of the stage, was taken aback for a moment, with a look of horror on his face, never expecting that Ying Chang would call him by his name in public.

Everyone looked at Wang Dong, and the old Qin people behind were stepping on their feet to see what His Majesty said Wang Dong looked like. Ying Chang also looked at Wang Dong. Prime Minister Chang Zifei walked up to Wang Dong Before the meeting, he gave a salute full of respect, and said with a smile on his face: "Wang Shichang, let's go up!"

"How can I, Wang Dong, He De, receive the gift from the Prime Minister!" Wang Dong was once again flattered, and quickly bowed his head to return the gift.

Chang Zifei straightened his face, and said with displeasure: "What are you talking about? You swear to defend Yangguan to the death, which is a great virtue, not to mention the truth, even a civil and military salute from all courts would be unreasonable." You should, remember, you are the pride of the people of Daqin, the pride of our officials, and the pride of Your Majesty!"

Wang Dong's eyes were red and moist, tears could not stop falling down, his heart was full of emotion.

Chang Zifei's expression softened a little, he patted Wang Dong's shoulder, and then raised his finger to point to the general platform, "Go, let the old Qin people see what Daqin's pride looks like!"

Wang Dong hastily wiped away his tears, wiped them again, and wiped them again. While wiping his tears, he walked towards the platform. Perhaps due to physical problems, Wang Dong staggered and swayed. Baiguan and Ying Chang were about to go help.

"Let me come!"

Ying Chang waved his hand to disperse all the officials who came forward to support him, supported Wang Dong's body with his own hands, and helped him onto the general platform, feeling the support from his back, Wang Dong's heart was moved like a torrent of water, and he couldn't do anything tidy.

The Ninth Five-Year Lord, the most honorable person in the Great Qin Empire actually supported him personally.

Not everyone can get this great honor.

Wang Dong was moved, and the old Qin people and soldiers were also moved and envious. Fighting for such a great Qin emperor, everything is worth it!

Among the thousands of troops, Yang Xiao looked at Ying Chang obsessively, with a knowing smile on her face from time to time, she knew that she fell in love with Ying Chang, this man with strong charm and courage conquered her, but this love, I can only enjoy it alone, and cannot speak out.

Wang Dong burst into tears, and the tears flowed faster than he wiped. After Ying Chang helped him to the general platform, he grabbed his empty sleeves and said with a trace of pain on his face: "Did you see? This is our The warriors of Great Qin, in the first battle, Wang Dong fought bravely and lost his left arm, in the second battle, Wang Dong led thousands of remnants to the battle with one arm and wounded!"

"They are all good. Even if they were seriously injured, they gritted their teeth and fought the enemy bravely. Although they died without fear, I now declare that King Dongzheng will be made a fifth-rank General Huben, and the rest of the dead and disabled soldiers will be given an additional ten taels of silver as a pension! "

At first, Ying Chang didn't know there was such a character as Wang Dong, Luo Xing told him about it.

"A fifth-rank General Huben? Oh my god, I'm worshiping the general!"

"From Shichang to the rank of fifth-rank general Huben, it's really a fish leaping into a dragon's gate and turning into a dragon!"

"Your Majesty has clear rewards and punishments, which is our blessing!"

"Yes!"

After Ying Chang's words fell, the old Qin people and the soldiers were surprised, even the officials were a little surprised. Although they knew that His Majesty would reward Wang Dong, they didn't expect that he would be a fifth-rank General Huben when he came up, so grand!

Everyone can see from this matter that His Majesty will never be ambiguous in rewarding those who have made meritorious deeds.

Chapter 177 Zhao Family Village Younger!

Fadao reminds you: ask for collection () after reading, and it is more convenient to read again.

Worshiping generals is the dream of every soldier, and it is also the existence that the common people look up to. Ying Chang's move can be said to have greatly inspired the soldiers and the old Qin people, telling them indirectly that I have never been stingy with meritorious men, and I will never be stingy. Any soldier who fought bloody for Daqin will be treated badly.

Wang Dong was also taken aback suddenly, looking at Ying Chang with an incredulous look in his eyes, he almost fainted from excitement, then tears gushed out of his eyes, and immediately knelt down on the ground, his face flushed, and he shouted in a choked voice : "Wang Dong thanked His Majesty Long En, long live Your Majesty, long live long live!"

"knock!"

"knock!"

"knock!"

Wang Dong knocked three times in a row, bleeding came from his forehead, Ying Chang was slightly startled, and quickly helped Wang Dong up, "General Huben, what are you doing, you owe Daqin, you owe me, you deserve it!"

"Woooo!"

Wang Dong cried out, feeling out of control.

"Come here, take General Huben down to rest!" Ying Chang said softly, supporting Wang Dong.

After the words fell, Luo Xing quickly walked up to the general's platform, and helped Wang Dong leave the general's platform.

Next, Ying Chang said a few words of encouragement, and then announced his dismissal and rest. At the same time, he ordered the generals at all levels to prepare for the defense of the city. Stones and wood must be prepared and sufficient, and try not to confront the Jin army.

Time passed slowly, and with the passage of time, the news that the Jin army failed in the second attack spread quickly. All Qin people who heard the news laughed heartily, but after laughing, they became worried. You know, this The war is not over yet.

There is a third and even a fourth time!

After a little hesitation, many old Qin people chose to go to Yangguan to fight against the enemy with His Majesty, with the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and with more old Qin people!

For a while, Qin Shang had no interest in the word, and moved out all the grain stored in the warehouse to the front line, and also donated a lot of money to the Ministry of Households. Rush to the front!

The whole country fights!

Swear to the death not to be a subjugated slave!

.....

At noon, at the entrance of Zhaojia Village in the north of Hedong County, there were nineteen people standing. These people were of different ages, the older one was 25 years old, and the younger one was eighteen or nineteen years old. God, with a solemn and resolute face, with a bow on his back and a long knife hanging on his waist.

The leader is a 19-year-old young man, with a tall and straight body like a strong pine, and a vigorous momentum like a scorching sun. Under his sword eyebrows, his eyes are as bright as cold stars. He is also carrying a curved bow and a long knife hanging on his waist.

And standing in front of them were hundreds of villagers from Zhaojia Village, led by two people, one was a white-haired old man holding a cane, the other was Kong Wu's powerful middle-aged man, the former was the old village head of Zhaojia Village Zhao Ann, the latter is Zhao Jie, the current head of Zhaojia Village!

They came to see off the descendants of Zhaojia Village. Since the Yangguan Defense War broke out, Zhao Hua and other descendants of Zhaojia Village were very worried about the safety of Daqin and wanted to go to Yangguan to join the war, but the old village head Zhao An firmly opposed them and forbade them to go. .

Then in the morning, the villagers who went to the county to buy oil, salt and rice returned to the village and told the news they had heard. Upon hearing the news, Zhao Hua and other young people once again asked to go to the front to join the war. This time, the old village Chief Zhao An nodded in agreement!

"The horse is coming!"

More than a dozen villagers brought a horse, exactly nineteen horses. Seeing that these horses were strong and strong, and they had strong eyes, they knew that these were good horses, which had reached the standard of war horses.

Zhaojia Village is a martial artist, and hunting for a living. Horses are indispensable. This time, Zhaojia Village handed over all the horses in the village to [-] young men, and let them rush to kill the enemy. The [-] young men took the horses handed over by the villagers. Reins, stroked the horses' heads, as if communicating with them.

"Grandpa, let's go!"

Zhao Hua and other younger generations happily jumped on their horses, ready to ride away, with a heart that couldn't wait to kill the enemy and serve the country.

"If you go, don't be a deserter, don't disgrace our Zhao Family Village!" Before the old village head Zhao An could speak, Zhao Hua's father, the current village head, said something.
