Chapter 114

~6 min read 1,062 words

Let alone looking at history, even if you take out various myths and legends like the Classic of Mountains and Seas, no one dares to write like this!

Too fantastical!

Whoever dares to write like this will definitely be sprayed to death! Will definitely be scolded for having no brain!

But it just happened!

Li Li Yuanba, one person actually ended a battle!

And facing such a god-like man, everyone was incredibly panicked and afraid!

Even... Meng Tian was afraid that Li Li Yuanba would kill them too.

At this moment, he subconsciously retreated!

However, Li Li Yuanba didn't pay attention to them.

He looked around, and finally, directly rode the Ten-Thousand-Mile Cloud-Covering Horse and left!

Seeing him leave, Meng Tian, Meng Wu, they all let out a long sigh of relief!

Standing with Li Li Yuanba, the pressure was truly too great.

It’s good that he left!

He left, so there was no worry that these troops would die miserably!

But... just as they had just let out a sigh of relief, suddenly, Li Li Yuanba, who had already left, actually returned!

He rode the horse and actually came back!

"Line up!"

"Line up!"

At that moment, there were generals shouting!

Likewise, there were also generals frantically shouting to run for their lives!

Seeing Li Li Yuanba return, their guts were scared out, and some timid soldiers actually started peeing their pants!

Especially the group of surrendered soldiers who followed Xiang Yu, their guts had long been scared out by Li Li Yuanba.

They would never forget the shocking scene of Li Li Yuanba killing one hundred thousand people alone until they died!

They were very worried that Li Li Yuanba would return and kill them all!

Even Meng Wu was panicked!

Could it be... could it be... that the New Emperor told Li Li Yuanba not to distinguish between friend and foe and kill everyone?

Think about it carefully, there is such a possibility!

After all... this is a thirty-thousand-strong army!

A thirty-thousand-strong army that only listens to the First Emperor and not to him is a threat to him, so it must be eradicated!

And only by eradicating this thirty-thousand-strong army could his imperial throne be stable enough!

"Line up!"

"Shoot arrows!"

Meng Wu almost subconsciously wanted to shout!

But this order ultimately wasn't shouted out.

Because, Li Li Yuanba spoke first:

"Convey the Emperor’s edict: send all military supplies, grain, armor, equipment, and money of Xiang Yu’s army to the national treasury; if even one grain of food is missing, I will kill your whole family!"

"Also, forty miles away, I dug a giant pit; you can bury all the corpses in the pit!"

After he finished speaking, he looked in the direction of the giant pit!

To be honest, this battle was not perfect!

In his plan, he would kill people right by the big pit, and after killing them, bury them directly, saving the effort of moving them!

It’s just... Xiang Yu’s army didn't take the bait!

Li Li Yuanba shook his head, feeling it was very boring, and rode the Ten-Thousand-Mile Cloud-Covering Horse and left directly!

And watching him leave, Meng Wu, Meng Tian, they let out a long sigh of relief!

What they feared most was Li Li Yuanba killing indiscriminately.

Fortunately, none of this happened!

After Li Li Yuanba left, everyone started counting the supplies immediately.

Likewise, Meng Wu also prepared to write a battle report and send it back to Xianyang!

However, just as he was about to write the battle report, Meng Wu was stunned!

That was... how should this battle report be written?

Yes!

Before, all of them predicted that this battle might take at least two months!

And even prepared to fight for half a year!

Other generals predicted that a battle of thirty thousand against forty thousand, even if it took three or five years, would not be an exaggeration.

But... one day!

It ended in just one day.

At that moment, Meng Wu’s head felt a bit dazed!

But... the battle report had to be written.

And, it had to be written as soon as possible.

Because... just before, after confirming that Li Li Yuanba had come, he had someone send a secret letter to Ying Zheng.

Telling the First Emperor that Li Li Yuanba was not in Xianyang City!

The meaning of this is self-evident!

And now, he had to use this battle report to tell the First Emperor not to act rashly!

Really don't act rashly!

If you don't solve Li Li Yuanba, don't even think about solving Ying Su!

In front of a fierce man who can fight a forty-thousand-strong army, any conspiracy and trickery are useless!

It’s just... how should this battle report be written?

Should he write it truthfully?

Wouldn't that make his own army look too useless?

Yes!

Li Li Yuanba alone smashed more than thirty thousand people to death, and the remaining tens of thousands either ran away or surrendered, so what about your Meng Wu’s army?

Is your Meng Wu’s army just eating dry rice?

Writing such a battle report is completely slapping his own face!

However... he couldn't not write it truthfully either.

If he didn't write it truthfully, not to mention violating the Qin Law, it would also stain his Meng Wu’s reputation!

The reputation of covering up the truth for the sake of merit!

He, Meng Wu, is a military man, and he hates such things the most!

But he could also imagine what kind of sensation such a battle report would cause if it were sent out!

At that moment, those who were already afraid of Ying Su would only be more afraid of Ying Su!

Wouldn't his imperial throne be stable then?

Once that happens, how can the eldest son Prince Fusu return?

No!

The battle report must not be written truthfully!

Meng Wu made up his mind!

Even... this matter cannot be spread!

After pondering for a long time, he decided to write two reports!

One is a secret report, presented to Ying Zheng, telling the truth!

One is a battle report, which just needs to be simple, without mentioning the process, only the result.

He pondered for a long time and felt this was appropriate!

And then, he began to write immediately!

At the same time, the army also began to act!
