Chapter 161

~6 min read 1,063 words

Ten thousand li of misty clouds shine; by day he travels ten thousand, by night eight thousand!

This speed is beyond what ordinary people can catch!

As for strength...

Very well!

Others lack this ability, but Li Yuanba truly possesses it!

That is the ability to single-handedly slaughter Xiang Yu's three hundred thousand troops!

With such personal martial prowess, any army is insignificant before him!

The Xiongnu?

The Xiongnu will be killed just the same!

At this very moment, Wang Jian felt nothing but dizziness and vertigo!

Yet he still bowed before Facing Ying Su, saying, "Regarding this matter, Your Majesty shall decide!"

Facing Ying Su said, "Very well!"

Having spoken, he summoned Li Yuanba and, before Wang Jian's eyes, issued him an order.

The next second, Li Yuanba departed!

Ten thousand li of misty clouds shone like lightning, instantly rushing out of Outside Xianyanggong!

Seeing this speed, Wang Jian was stunned into numbness once more!

At this very moment, he could not help but sigh that with Li Yuanba, Facing Ying Su was truly invincible!

But at the same time, he could not help but worry: "Li Yuanba has left, so who will handle the three hundred thousand peasant army at Huashan?"

Facing Ying Su said, "Send Li Cunxiao there!"

Having finished speaking, he immediately summoned Li Cunxiao!

"Your Majesty!"

Wang Jian cried out, hurriedly bowing and saying, "If Li Cunxiao leaves, who will be responsible for Your Majesty's safety?"

"Moreover, I feel this arrival of the three hundred thousand peasant army is suspicious!"

"Why have they appeared near Outside Xianyanggong!"

Wang Jian's brows knitted tightly; he felt something was strange!

Facing Ying Su nodded and said, "Indeed, it is somewhat strange!"

"Like a noble uprising, they even found Xiang Yu to serve as General leading the soldiers!"

"But this peasant army actually has no leader at all!"

Facing Ying Su frowned directly and said to Wang Jian, "Old General, what do you think should be done?"

Wang Jian bowed and said, "First, send someone to infiltrate their ranks, ask what they are doing, what they want, and why they intend to attack Outside Xianyanggong!"

"If they are rebels, no further words are needed; I will lead a hundred thousand troops and directly annihilate them!"

"I fear... I fear..."

Wang Jian frowned; he thought of a possibility but found it somewhat difficult to say!

Facing Ying Su waved his hand: "Speak freely!"

Wang Jian said, "Your Majesty's order to build the Great Wall, halt the construction of Epang Palace, and implement the field tax has caused a sensation among the people, winning Your Majesty immense popular support!"

"And the noble army of one point five hundred thousand troops marching out has also caused a great uproar; I suspect someone is inciting the people's hearts. They came to Outside Xianyanggong to enlist voluntarily; in short, they wish to assist the new Emperor in eliminating rebellion, only... the news that Xiang Yu's army has been pacified has not yet spread, so they know nothing!"

Wang Jian spoke these words.

Facing Ying Su was surprised: "Is there such a possibility?"

Wang Jian said, "The possibility is very great, because... on the very days the noble army mobilized, servants in my residence were shouting that they wished to help the new Emperor!"

"Even... some household servants actually escaped!"

"This..."

Facing Ying Su was shocked!

Wang Jian said, "Regardless, investigate first!"

"Very well!"

Facing Ying Su nodded!

He directly ordered Yu Yu Huatian to take people and investigate.

Huashan is not far from Outside Xianyanggong; it can even be described as very close!

Three or five men riding swift horses returned on the very next day!

And after Yu Yu Huatian returned, what surprised Facing Ying Su was that he had brought back several people!

"Commoner Chen Sheng, greets the Emperor!"

"Commoner Wu Guang, bows to greet the Emperor!"

"Commoner Liu Ji, bows to greet the Emperor!"

At this moment, all three prostrated themselves, looking at Facing Ying Su before them, somewhat agitated!

Especially Liu Ji, whose eyes literally sparkled with excitement!

He was just short of saying, "I know my lord Xiao He!"

And as Facing Ying Su looked at them, he was even more shocked!

Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, Liu Ji!

Liu Ji can be set aside for now!

Chen Shengwuguang, these are the leaders of the first peasant uprising in Chinese history!

They are also the first fierce men to lead a rebellion against Qin!

Though their eventual fate was not particularly good, their great deeds truly earned the admiration of many in later generations!

Likewise, it was because of these two that Li Shimin uttered that timeless sigh: "Water can carry the boat, but it can also capsize it!"

It was also because of these two that, although the nobility of later generations still oppressed the common people, they were truly not as ruthless as before!

They had also learned to restrain themselves!

085. The Great Shang Female War God, Fu Hao! Super fierce! (Includes an image of Fu Hao)

Inside Xianyanggong!

Looking at Chen Sheng and Wu Guang before him!

Recalling the deeds of these two, Ying Su could not help but feel a touch of emotion!

As for Ying Su himself?

Well, to be honest, he too admired their courage!

Even though he is now the Emperor of Great Qin.

That is a matter that occurred after his transmigration.

Before transmigration, he was just an ordinary worker!

Speaking from the standpoint of the common people, Ying Su believed these two had done nothing wrong!

What's wrong with that!

Look at how the Second Emperor Hu Hai oppressed the common people!

Under such circumstances, were the common people not allowed to resist?

On what grounds!

Since when should common people not have a shred of fighting spirit?

For survival, for staying alive, where did they go wrong?

As for whether they were nobles...

Ying Su did not ask them, but instead looked at their clothing.

Ragged clothes!

It was obvious!

No!

Moreover, even if they were nobles, there was a very high probability they were fallen nobles from the Han Sect!

Yes! If they were true nobles, how could they possibly have gone to build the Great Wall?

Which noble would go to build the Great Wall!

Of those who built the Great Wall, which one was not a bitter, suffering commoner?
