Chapter 301

~10 min read 1,893 words

A whole day of fighting, Han Xin's casualties exceeded 40,000!

The Xiongnu were killed until less than 800,000 were left!

Then, another whole day of fighting!

Han Xin's casualties reached 60,000!

Only 40,000 were left, and Li Li Yuanba and Modun were having a decisive battle!

And at the critical moment, Modun ran away, leading 300,000 people to break through the Qin Army and run away!

Han Xin didn't delay and ordered Li Li Yuanba and Li Li Cunxiao to chase!

However... just in the process of chasing, something happened!

An avalanche!

When both sides reached the middle of the snowy mountain, Modun performed the powerful Eagle Roar Skill, cracking the snowy mountain!

In this way, it triggered a huge avalanche!

The snow that had accumulated on the snowy mountain for hundreds or thousands of years all rolled down!

Li Li Yuanba and Li Li Cunxiao, even if they were gods, were difficult to resist when facing this terrifying power of heaven and earth!

They were both buried alive!

Along with them, more than 20,000 people who followed them and were responsible for the pursuit were all buried alive!

But because of the terrain, Modun and his 300,000 people escaped this avalanche!

In this way, they ran away with 300,000 people!

After reading this report of victory!

At that moment, Ying Zheng's head was buzzing!

Although everything was written in detail, he still felt it was incredible and didn't dare to believe it!

Li Li Yuanba, Li Li Cunxiao, did they just die like this?

And Han Xin's 100,000 troops, only less than 20,000 were left?

His head was buzzing, and he really couldn't accept this!

Yes!

Even if he hated Li Li Yuanba and Li Li Cunxiao and gnashed his teeth in hatred!

Even, he had shouted more than once to kill them both!

But... after really hearing the news of their deaths, Ying Zheng still felt his head buzzing, and had a feeling that the sky had fallen!

How fierce were these two people!

What kind of fierce people were they!

Although he hated them, his biggest wish was not to kill them, but to win them over!

After winning them over, he would lead them to conquer Nanyue and destroy the Xiongnu in the north!

Although the Xiongnu were destroyed now!

But... Great Qin still had many, many battles to fight!

Overseas, attacking the world outside the snowy mountains!

But... but...

Did they just die like this?

Ying Zheng felt heartbroken!

Of course, besides being heartbroken, he was also worried!

A kind of deep worry!

Rebellious son!

How was that rebellious son?

This report of victory only mentioned the casualties of Han Xin's army!

What about the rebellious son?

How was the rebellious son?

Was he alive or dead?

If he died, what should Great Qin's future do?

If he died... who would inherit his imperial throne?

What would Great Qin's future be like?

Ying Zheng's body was trembling, shaking uncontrollably!

He didn't dare to imagine all this!

But soon, he shook his head, persuading himself again and again in his heart not to think blindly!

This rebellious son had a tough life!

He had attacked him so many times, but every time he couldn't succeed, and instead was countered by this rebellious son!

How could he die so easily!

He persuaded himself again and again, and finally calmed his restless heart!

But... thinking of Ying Su's current situation, his heart, which had finally calmed down, became restless again!

Didn't die?

Even if he didn't die, so what?

He didn't have Li Li Yuanba and Li Li Cunxiao by his side now, who could guarantee his safety?

And the army, at most, he only had 20,000 people by his side now!

What if Modun led 300,000 people to kill back?

And those so-called Central Plains experts!

If they wanted to assassinate that rebellious son, without Li Li Yuanba and Li Li Cunxiao, who could stop them?

Ying Zheng panicked!

At this moment, he was extremely terrified!

He really didn't dare to imagine what the next situation would be like!

But... no matter how panicked he was, he had to calm himself down!

Because... there was a more important thing waiting for him to do!

That was to stabilize the imperial court!

Yes!

The current imperial court didn't seem to have any big fluctuations!

But... how complicated were the undercurrents inside!

One side was the forces left by Ying Su, such as Zhuge Liang, Zuo Zuo Zongtang, and Xiao He, who were confronting him.

The other side was the nobles who supported him on the surface but always had their own little thoughts and calculations!

Even Meng Wu and Meng Tian were not peaceful masters now.

If the news of Li Li Yuanba and Li Li Cunxiao's death was spread, God knows what kind of turmoil would happen?

“Fake!”

“The seal is fake!”

“The handwriting on it is also fake!”

“This person dared to impersonate the military camp and spread a fake report of victory!”

“Kill!”

Ying Zheng waved his hand and tore up this report of victory!

Tore it into pieces!

Finally, he threw it into the stove and burned it to ashes!

And when these words were spoken, instantly, everyone breathed a long sigh of relief!

Just say it!

How could 3 million Xiongnu be killed until only 300,000 were left fleeing?

Even Li Li Yuanba and Li Li Cunxiao were gone, Han Xin only had 20,000 people left, so why was Modun still running?

Why not just fight back?

There were too many doubtful points in this report of victory.

So, the moment Ying Zheng spoke, no one doubted it at all!

And as for the messenger?

After hearing Ying Zheng's words, he was stunned, and at that moment, he knelt directly to Ying Zheng and shouted about the authenticity of this report of victory!

But, who would listen to him!

The moment Ying Zheng gave the order, someone covered his mouth and took him out!

To save him from making noise and disturbing everyone's interest!

Then, everyone continued to sing and dance.

Ying Zheng continued to talk and laugh with everyone, playing and having fun!

Everything was as if nothing had happened!

Not long after, he made an excuse that he was drunk and left this place!

Since he left, this welcome banquet naturally couldn't last long.

Not long after, everyone dispersed!

However, Li Si, Zhuge Liang, Zuo Zuo Zongtang, Xiao He, Yuan Yuan Chonghuan, and other confidants of Ying Su did not leave!

They looked at each other and all went to Li Si's Prime Minister's Mansion!

To discuss!

As for what they were discussing, no one knew!

Because, it was too secret!

It was really too secret!

Even the people of the Net couldn't monitor them, let alone hear their conversation!

Because... the place where they discussed things was underground!

And the only entrance to the underground was guarded by Fu Hao with hundreds of soldiers!

And Ying Zheng also had such a move!

And shortly after this banquet dispersed, in Ying Zheng's bedroom!

Just after he arrived here, he informed Zhao Gao to go out!

Then, he personally opened a secret compartment!

Finally, he went in!

And not long after, two people wrapped in black robes walked into Ying Zheng's bedroom!

They actually knew about this secret compartment!

Once opened, they went in directly!

And after they entered the secret compartment, they went through twists and turns and arrived at an underground secret room!

“Li Xin, Wei Liao, pay respects to the Emperor!”

They bowed, and at the same time, looked at Ying Zheng with extreme terror!

Because... Ying Zheng's face at this moment was too scary!

Gloomy, cold, and murderous!

This made Li Xin and Wei Liao tremble with fear!

And Ying Zheng took a long time to withdraw his murderous aura!

Finally, he looked at the two for a long time!

These were the two he trusted the most, right!

One held his military power!

Was the Grand General he personally enfeoffed!

In charge of the mobilization of the world's troops!

Any army that wanted to be mobilized needed his permission!

The other one saved him in the most critical moment!

Giving him the capital to confront Ying Su!

Anyone in this world might betray, but they wouldn't betray, right!

Ying Zheng thought to himself and pondered for a long time!

Finally, he spoke to the two:

“Meng Wu's report of victory is true!”

“What?”

Once these words were spoken, Wei Liao and Li Xin were stunned!

Especially Wei Liao, at this moment, he felt the sky was about to collapse!

At that moment, his head was buzzing, and for a time, he swallowed hard, looking at Ying Zheng in a daze!

At this moment, he only felt it was terrible!

Quite terrible!

Even Li Xin was trembling!

Ying Zheng continued:

“If this report of victory is true!”

“Then... undoubtedly, my Great Qin will usher in an unprecedented turmoil!”

“This turmoil might even destroy my Qin State, and the worst result is the beginning of the enfeoffment system!”

“Now, my Great Qin is about to face an unprecedented catastrophe!”

160. Kill Ying Su! Squeeze the people! Return grain to the nobles! The First Emperor's difficult choice!

In the Xianyang Palace!

At this moment, Ying Zheng was speaking!

And when these words were spoken, Li Xin was shocked, Wei Liao was shocked, and even Zhao Gao was panicked!

However, after the surprise!

Zhao Gao felt that Ying Zheng was exaggerating!

Even... a bit alarmist!

Yes!

Before Ying Su usurped the throne, when Great Qin didn't have Li Li Yuanba and Li Li Cunxiao, and didn't have Han Xin's 100,000 troops, there was no danger of national subjugation, so why was it going to be destroyed now?

Not to mention that time, even during the most difficult period of destroying the six states, no one said anything about national subjugation!

But now... it's just that Li Li Yuanba and Li Li Cunxiao died, and Ying Su's 100,000 people only had 20,000 left, how could the country be destroyed?

However... since it was Ying Zheng who said it, Zhao Gao didn't dare to say anything!

But... no matter what Zhao Gao thought, Wei Liao completely believed that Ying Zheng was right!

National subjugation was really possible!

Why?

Could the current situation be the same as the situation of destroying the six states before?

In the wars of destroying the six states before, the Qin State was united!

Everyone's goals were completely consistent!

That was to destroy the six states and unify the world!

Because unifying the world was an act of making a big cake!

All Qin people could get huge benefits from it!

But after destroying the six states and unifying the world, everything changed!

Driven by interests, all parties began to move!

Many people, for their own selfish interests, began to engage in various open and secret struggles!

In addition, Ying Zheng's distribution of interests was indeed unfair; too much wealth flowed into the Qin royal family! And this wealth was not distributed to them, but used to build the Great Wall!

This made many people feel great dissatisfaction!

And in order to gain more and greater benefits!

Thus, the restoration of enfeoffment was born!

This was something many people wanted to get!
