my grandfather was qin shi huang

Although the newly established Wuwei County has just broken ground, looking at its location, it is clearly the gateway between the Hexi Corridor and Daqin. It is almost conceivable that this place will become a vital hub connecting the Western Regions and Great Qin.

This is the most important thing in the world.

And it is said to be a county, but anyone with a discerning eye can see at a glance that this Wuwei called county government is basically the standard of county government.

His Highness the Emperor Changsun actually wanted to hand over such a dangerous pass into the hands of a newcomer who was almost half-coerced. What a courage!

But to be honest, at this moment, he really felt a little moved.

Who doesn’t want to be respected and have a chance to show off?

In the past, in Peixian County, I was just a petty official and had no chance. But now that the opportunity has come, it would be a lie to say that I am not tempted. Even later, he followed Liu Dating in revolting against Qin. It was because after the death of the First Emperor, the good Qin Dynasty was almost broken up by Hu Hai and Zhao Gao, the second emperor of Qin. Seeing that his strength was exhausted, he followed Liu Bang. The banner of anti-Qin was raised.

Times make heroes.

If the First Emperor could live another 20 years, how many of the various princes who resisted the Qin Dynasty, including Liu Xiang, would be able to take advantage of the situation, and how many would dare to rebel?

Maybe like Xiao He and Cao Shen, they could only become subordinates, or perhaps times would turn out to be loyal ministers to the Qin Dynasty.

"You originally had the experience of being an official in Peixian County, so it's not too sudden to take over Wuwei now——"

Having said this, Zhao Ying smiled and glanced at Xiao He, who was obviously a little moved, and spoke in a gentle tone.

"Although this place is newly built, the future is promising. How about you, do you have the confidence to be the acting county magistrate and manage this Wuwei well for me..."

Xiao He couldn't help but take a deep breath when he looked at the emperor's eldest grandson, who was only sixteen years old, but majestic, heroic, and calm.

"Your Majesty Xiao He, I am willing to do my best to achieve this goal!"

Zhao Ying smiled and patted his shoulder gently.

"Do a good job, I'm optimistic about you——"

Feeling Zhao Ying's strong and warm hands, Xiao He suddenly felt touched by being valued and appreciated.

Since he was determined to stay here, flex his muscles and make a career, Xiao He no longer hesitated. That afternoon, he took Zhao Ying's personal seal and rushed to Wuwei County where the groundbreaking work had just begun.

As the acting county magistrate, he cannot miss the opportunity to build a historical city with his own hands!

Wang Li, on the other hand, had already rushed to Wuwei before Xiao He arrived. His family members knew about his family affairs and knew that he had little experience in politics, so he paid more attention to it. Not only did he do everything personally, but he also specially selected a few literate and capable military backbones to work every day. He followed several officials from the central government brought by Feng Quji, stealing troops and assisting him at the same time.

He was born in the Wang family. Compared with other people of this era, he was already well-informed and attentive. After a few days, he gradually gained some knowledge and became more and more calm.

At this time, he saw Xiao He who was sent to him by Zhao Ying, and he felt relieved.

It's good now, someone finally shares the burden for me.

He didn't mind if someone shared power with him. After all, before coming here, Zhao Ying had made it very clear that he could ignore other matters concerning Wuwei County, except for two things that he couldn't ignore.

One is for the county's military preparations, and the other is for local security.

These two must be tightly held in one's own hands, and all other government affairs can be left to Xiao He.

Xiao He also did not expect that Wang Li, a nobleman from the Wuchenghou Mansion, would transfer power so smoothly and thoroughly. Wang Li didn't hide anything from him and said with a smile.

"There is no need to be surprised by Magistrate Xiao. Before coming, His Highness made it very clear that all civil affairs in the county will be handed over to the county magistrate, and all military affairs in the county will be handed over to me. From now on, we will do everything in civil and military affairs, and this will be the long-lasting peace of Wuwei County Magistrate." Guarantee.”

Xiao He was overjoyed and raised his hand to Wang Li.

"Please give me more advice from General Wang in the future!"

……

As for the county magistrates of Zhangye and Jiuquan, Zhao Ying thought over and over again and decided to hand them over to the officials in the DPRK brought by Feng Quji. After all, although he has many talented people, not many of them can independently govern a county and have experience in governing counties.

If the Great Father can let these people come to help him at this time, then obviously there should be no problem with these people. However, he still left the generals guarding the two places to his old team from the recruit camp.

Zhang Ye was handed over to Meng Zhan, a star of the Meng family who was steady in work, delicate in character, and performed extremely well all the way. As for Jiuquan, he was handed over to Bai Sun, who followed Zhang Liang and pacified Jiayu Mountain.

Firstly, Baisun performed very well in the recruit camp and was one of the first batch of hundred generals selected. Secondly, Baisun has a special status. He is a member of the Baisan clan of Mengxi and the Baifen clan of the Baisun clan. 's second son.

Meng Xibai Sanshi stood up to support him, and he must give something in return.

In the four counties of Hexi, there must be a place for the Baisan clan of Mengxi.

But there is only one place for it.

Although the Mengxi Baisan clan's support was tantamount to a timely help for him, and he was grateful, he did not want the rear area that he had fought hard to defeat to directly become the Mengxi Baisan clan's rear. garden.

But even so, Mengxi Baisan's influence is still increasing.

Almost all of the three thousand disciples came from Mei County. Even if one-third of them were not from the Baisan clan of Mengxi, they still accounted for the majority of his men. Now, after the battle between the Xiongnu and the Hexi Corridor, almost all of these people have made meritorious deeds, and they will soon become middle- and lower-level officials in the army. When the news of the detailed merit analysis from the court arrives, these people will probably disperse into the hundreds of thousands in Longxi. Among the army, he became the mainstay of the Longxi army.

As for the Mohist disciples who had been following him, it was not that he had not considered it, but after many considerations, he felt that it was not suitable.

Compared with several other schools of thought, the theories and practices of this group of Mohists are purer and more noble.

If you give them a small county town in Guanzhong and let them display their political ideas, with your own support, they may be able to create a small utopia on this land. But if you give them a slightly larger place, Or in a new city like the Hexi Corridor, where the ethnic composition is complex and the people have not yet surrendered, big troubles may occur if things go wrong.

The grassland people admire strength but not virtue.

Even if you reason with them, you probably won't tell them that fists are effective. Letting this group of noble people with moral obsessions come here will make both parties uncomfortable, and the wise will not take it.

However, all the Mohist disciples, including Juzi Qin of the Mohist family, have their place to play.

The construction and planning of Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan and Dunhuang were all handed over to the Mohists.

……

Just when Zhao Ying was busy in the Hexi Corridor, the court was busy.

The atmosphere on the grassland is quite strange.

First, Yu Touman, the great Chan of the Xiongnu, mobilized the young men of dozens of tribes, large and small, and pulled up an army of hundreds of thousands. They were heavily equipped near the royal city, waiting for the arrival of Zhao Ying's army. .

As a result, I waited lonely.

No, it can't be regarded as a lonely wait, because on the fourth day after Zhao Ying's army disappeared, more than 20 troops from Jiuyuan and Shangjun moved forward across the board and pushed outside the Great Wall. Under the famous Qin Dynasty general Under the personal leadership of Wang Ben, they opened up their battle array and launched an aggressive offensive against the Xiongnu.

Touman was even more afraid to move.

A vanguard army with tens of thousands of people, in one day, bulldozed the four most powerful tribes under his command. Now hundreds of thousands of troops are pressing forward. To say that he is not nervous is definitely a lie.

But it doesn't matter how timid it is.

Although Touman was old and weak, he was not afraid of the great master. Although he was shocked by the terrifying combat power shown by Zhao Ying's army, he believed more in the hundreds of thousands of Xiongnu troops behind him.

But what confused him was that Wang Ben's army had clearly left the Great Wall, but its marching speed was as slow as a snail. In the end, it simply stopped and couldn't move!

Look at that posture, it's like running to the grassland not for fighting, but for sightseeing.

But he did not dare to lead an army to attack them actively.

After all, the Qin Army's vanguard army with extremely terrifying combat effectiveness suddenly disappeared. Who knows when it will suddenly appear and stab itself.

As a result, an extremely strange scene occurred in the history of the relationship between Da Qin and the Xiongnu.

Wang Ben, the general of the Qin army, led an army of 10,000+ and was stationed outside the Great Wall to intimidate the Xiongnu. Hundreds of thousands of Xiongnu troops gathered tightly near the royal city, facing the Qin army from the air.

This situation lasted until more than ten days later.

Then Touman Shanyu heard news that made him stunned and unbelievable. The Qin army vanguard who mysteriously disappeared on the grassland unexpectedly stormed into the Hexi Corridor and completely wiped out the enemy in just a few days. The entire Hexi Corridor.

The Yuezhi, who was once so powerful that even the Xiongnu had to retreat, surrendered from the Yuezhi King on down!

It was still the vanguard force that wiped out the four major tribes of Tupu, Qiemo, Dangtian and Tuge in one day, and it was still the legendary emperor's eldest grandson Zhao Ying who was only sixteen years old!

There is nothing new on the prairie.

Although communications are not developed in this era, these grassland peoples only have their own means of communication. What's more, neither Li Xin, who is sitting at the foot of Lenglong Ridge, nor Wang Ben, who is intimidating the Huns, have any desire for this news. Blockade means.

"How is it possible! How is this possible! The Yuezhi King has an army of hundreds of thousands and has countless elite soldiers and generals. How could he not be the opponent of the Qin Army? Even if he was not the opponent of the Qin Army, how could he be defeated so quickly..."

Inside the big tent, there was Man Chanyu, a fat man with a fat face and a bloated figure. His eyes were red and he was panting like a trapped animal, tearing at his collar from time to time.

"That Zhao Ying, is it possible that he is also good at witchcraft..."

But no one could answer his question.

Dozens of leaders of the major tribes in the grassland all looked shocked and uneasy, unable to believe this news that sounded extremely exaggerated and unreal.

But reason told them that this was most likely true.

After all, that was a super madman with 3 troops who could destroy four major tribes in one day!

To destroy the Four Kingdoms in one day, it would take more than ten days to destroy the Yuezhi. It seems normal - what a bullshit!

The power of the Yuezhi is not comparable to the tribes such as Junpu, Qiemo, Dangtian and Tuge. They are powerful enough to fight against the entire Xiongnu. If the time spent on the journey is excluded, it is very likely that the entire clan will be beaten to surrender within a few days...

How was this battle fought——

How to fight to get like this?

This problem has completely exceeded their imagination.

"Khan, now that the Yuezhi has been destroyed and the Hexi Corridor has fallen into the hands of the Qin people, that person no longer has anything to worry about. Do you think he will be free to continue to use troops against us..."

When a man with a rough appearance and many fang jewelry around his neck asked the question that everyone was worried about in public, the atmosphere in the royal tent instantly froze, so heavy and oppressive that it was almost impossible to breathe.

A group of people know in their hearts that this possibility is almost [-]%.

Before taking over the Hexi Corridor, that exaggeratedly young boy dared to lead an army of tens of thousands to attack the Huns, wiping out four major tribes in one day. Now that he has no worries and has the advantage of being able to send troops to both sides, how could he let people like himself go?

If he really comes, who among us can stop this terrible demon?

They all knew that in terms of strength alone, their own tribe was no match for the tribes such as Yun Pu and others. They couldn't even resist those four powerful tribes, so why should their own tribe resist?

Take your head?

Because of this concern, no one dared to retreat easily.

If you don’t stick together, there will be no future——

"So what? How can I, the Xiongnu warrior, be compared to those useless wine bags and rice bags of the Yuezhi tribe? When the soldiers come, we will block the water and cover it with the earth. How can we, the Xiongnu warrior, the descendants of Changshengtian, still be afraid of those Qin people..."

Touman Shanyu saw that the atmosphere in the king's tent was a bit depressing, and many people had a look of fear on their faces. He immediately waved his arms to cheer everyone up despite the worries in his heart.

However, the effect is very chatty.

We are all old foxes who have been hanging out on the grassland for many years. Who can still think about it?

The terrifying emperor grandson of Great Qin really brought people here. Who can resist his army? The most important thing is, who will resist his army first?

No one spoke.

Everyone acted as if they didn't hear anything, just looking at their own toes.

"Fortunately, you are still the descendants of Changshengtian. The enemy has not come yet, and you are so timid. You might as well stop standing here, go back to your tribe, and hide in your own woman's crotch..."

Just when the atmosphere in the big tent was getting more and more dull and depressing, suddenly a somewhat angry voice broke the silence in the big tent.

This was said so shamelessly that everyone felt like they had been slapped in the face, feeling burning pain.

Swah——

Everyone's eyes immediately focused on the young man standing under Touman Shanyu.

Everyone is familiar with this young man who suddenly stood up and slapped him in the face. He was the eldest son of Touman Chanyu, Modu!

"presumptuous--"

Seeing that his unlucky son had aroused public anger with just one mouthful, Touman Chanyu sacrificed his unruly son without hesitation, grabbed the horsewhip inlaid with gold and jade jewelry around him, and whipped it across his head and face.

"You don't have the right to speak in the big tent, why don't you immediately apologize to these uncles!"

Mao Dun clenched his fists tightly, neither dodging nor dodging. He stared back at his father, who had become bloated, old and had lost his fighting spirit, with a trace of disdain in his eyes.

This kind of father who only sacrifices his own son is no longer worthy of being the descendant of the Wolf King!
