Fighting with fire shadow

"Rumble..."

Just as the fierce battle between the two sides intensified, a huge roar suddenly came from the distance. Thousands of Qin cavalry wearing black armor rushed towards Wang Ye's elite soldiers like a torrent of steel.

Faced with the charge of these heavy armored cavalry, hundreds of the personal guards under Wang Ye were instantly dispersed, and then they were killed one after another.

"Pfft!"

The leading black-armored general relied on the momentum of his horse to charge, and the spear in his hand directly cut through the big ax in Wang Yan's hand, piercing his chest in one fell swoop.

After dealing with Wang Yan's rebellion, the leading black-armored general quickly dismounted, knelt down on one knee and said to the carriage where Ying Zheng was riding: "General Meng Tian is late in coming to rescue, I hope your Majesty will forgive me!"

"Meng Tian? If I remember correctly, you should be Meng Ao's grandson."

Ying Zheng opened the curtain door of the carriage and slowly stepped out of the carriage. He looked at Meng Tian who was kneeling in front of him and showed admiration: "It seems that another brave general has appeared in the Meng family."

"Your Majesty is overrated."

Meng Tian did not look down upon Ying Zheng because of his young appearance, and replied with great respect.

Ying Zheng looked at Meng Tian's respectful and humble attitude, and his evaluation of him in his heart improved a bit. He smiled and ordered: "Meng Tian, ​​you have made a contribution to the rescue this time. I have ordered you to temporarily act as the chief of Wang Zuosu." After I return to Xiangyang City, I will draft a new imperial edict and officially appoint you as the commander-in-chief of Wu Sui's border army."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. I will swear allegiance to Your Majesty to the death!"

When Meng Tian heard Ying Zheng's words, he couldn't help but show excitement on his face, and he swore in an excited tone.

"(*￣︶￣)"

Ying Zheng was very satisfied with Meng Tian's answer and glanced at Ximen Cheng subconsciously. The two looked at each other and smiled.

Meng Tian's grandfather Meng Ao was the general of the Qin State and the head of the Qin State's military. His relationship with the prime minister Lu Buwei was not good, and he was even somewhat hostile.

It is precisely because of this that Meng Tian will definitely not join Lu Buwei, so Ying Zheng discussed with Ximen Cheng and decided to make Meng Tian the new commander-in-chief of the Wu Sui border army.

What Ximen Cheng had previously ordered Gai Nie to do was to use the token given by Ying Zheng to gain Meng Tian's trust and let him bring his cavalry to rescue him. This would be a good opportunity to push him to the next level. Go to the position of commander-in-chief of the border army.

More than half an hour later, Ximen Cheng and the others returned to the frontier camp again, which naturally caused a commotion.

Under Meng Tian's iron-blooded suppression, Wang Ye's confidants left in the military camp were quickly strangled, and he escorted Ying Zheng to the general platform.

"See you, Your Majesty! Long live my King!"

"Long live my king!"

Under the leadership of Meng Tian, ​​the new commander-in-chief, hundreds of thousands of Pingyang's heavy armored troops knelt on one knee and showed their loyalty to the young King of Qin in front of them.

Although the cold wind was howling on the general stage, Ying Zheng felt a fire burning in his heart. He waved his big hand and said: "Pingsheng!!!"

"Thank you king!"

Looking at the high-spirited Ying Zheng standing on the general stage, Ximen Cheng also showed a happy smile on his face.

Although Ximen Cheng has no interest in the throne, he still feels a sense of accomplishment to be able to personally participate in the cultivation of Qin Shihuang.

As for Tianze and others standing next to Ximen Cheng, they felt an unprecedented momentum from Ying Zheng, like a hidden dragon soaring into the sky.

Great Qin Xianyang City

It is located in the hinterland of Qinchuan, [-] miles away, with the Wei River running through it to the south and Mount Wei to the north. The mountains and rivers are both sunny, so it is called Xianyang.

The entire Xianyang City covers an extremely large area, stretching for more than [-] miles, with pavilions, pavilions, and wide roads. It is the largest royal capital in the world.

Compared with Xinzheng City in South Korea, Xianyang City is far superior to the former not only in terms of area, resident population, or bustling scene.

The most important thing is that the people of Qin are martial arts, and the pedestrians on the streets are in high spirits. Pedestrians holding swords can be seen everywhere, which is completely different from the people in Xinzheng City.

"Bang bang bang..."

Under the control of the Exorcist, the tall puppet corpse bear slowly pulled the carriage into Xianyang City, causing quite a commotion.

After all, after these puppet corpse bears have been transformed, they are even larger than adult black bears, with a body length of more than three meters, and a height of more than two meters with all fours on the ground, like a walking chariot.

Fortunately, when entering the city, Ying Zheng had already revealed his identity as King Qin. The officer responsible for guarding the city specially dispatched a patrol team to escort their carriage into Xianyang City.

If there were no soldiers from the patrol team in front to drive away the blockers, given the curious and bold character of the people of Xianyang City, they might have surrounded the carriage that Ximen Cheng and his companions were riding in long ago.

Following the map marks given by Ximen Cheng, the Exorcist controlled the puppet corpse bear to pull the carriage and stopped in front of a luxurious mansion.

Because Ximen Cheng knew that he would soon go to Qin, so when he auctioned the rights to sell colored glaze, he deliberately traded a lot of Qin's properties from the wealthy businessmen of Qin.

The luxurious mansion in front of me is one of Ximen Cheng's properties in Xianyang City. The price is about 1 taels of gold.

"Mr. Youlao will stay here temporarily for one day. Tomorrow morning we will send someone to welcome you into the palace. At that time, we will publicly confer you the title of Grand Master of the Qin Dynasty."

After Ying Zheng followed Ximen Cheng out of the carriage, he bowed his hands to him apologetically and said, "I need to tell you something in advance. The laws of Daqin have always been that meritorious deeds must be rewarded and delinquents must be punished. Tomorrow, if I do I think there will definitely be a lot of opposition from people in the DPRK and China to canonizing you as a national advisor, so please make preparations in advance."

Ximen Cheng smiled and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty! Since I dare to follow Your Majesty into Qin, I have already made preparations to deal with the difficulties faced by the officials of Great Qin. I will prepare a meeting gift for them tomorrow, and I will make them willing to do so." Recognize me as the national master."

"After listening to what the gentleman said, I am somewhat looking forward to the arrival of the court tomorrow morning, so I will take my leave first."

"Your Majesty, please!"

After Gai Nie escorted Ying Zheng away, Ximen Cheng greeted Tianze and the others and led them into the luxurious mansion.

Prime Minister's Mansion Study Room

"Ugh……"

After Lu Buwei read the secret message sent back by the secret agent, his expression was very complicated. He was shocked and angry, but also helpless. In the end, he could only sigh: "I am really old~"

Back then, Lu Buwei supported Qin Yiren at all costs, which could be regarded as a huge gamble.

If he wins the bet, he can become a being inferior to one person and above ten thousand people. But if he loses the bet, the lives of the whole family may not be saved.
