Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 54

"For the empire!" Hu Hai yelled suddenly, like a gladiator.

At this moment, Hu Hai is the spirit of the Great Qin Empire, the last pillar, the God who made the soldiers of the Qin Army feel at ease.

"I swear allegiance to Your Majesty to the death, and the empire will last forever!" Wang Ben looked solemn, like a believer, his face was bathed in the light of God.

For the elderly who followed the first emperor across the world, the word "Da Qin" is the greatest belief.The long existence of the empire is the meaning of life.

Especially the old Qin family like Wang Ben, they fought for the Great Qin and were also honored by the Great Qin.

……

A gleam flashed across Hu Hai's eyes, he stared at Wang Ben, and said, "Tongwuhou, the Chu army has a heart of revenge, and wants to avenge Dingtao and the battle that destroyed Chu back then."

"In addition to Xiang Yu's fierceness, this battle is extraordinary. When our army is in a difficult situation, we should fight the enemy with the heart of a protracted war."

"What I mean is that if we add another hundred thousand troops from Jiuyuan, we will have a chance of winning this battle."

……

Hearing this, Wang Ben shook his head and said: "The Jiuyuan army scouts a secret report, saying that the Xiongnu Maodun Shanyu has moved south with his entire army and is going to plunder Yinshan Mountain in early summer. At this moment, the Jiuyuan army only has [-] troops left."

"Another increase in troops will inevitably lead to the collapse of the northern defense line of the empire, allowing the Xiongnu wolf soldiers to attack Xianyang directly. Besides, according to today's battle, there is still a chance of victory for the current army and horses to defeat the Chu army, and there is no need to retreat."

The greatest duty of the Nine Plains Army was to defend the northern land of Great Qin and guard against the Xiongnu. When he heard that Maodun intended to go south, Hu Hai did not dare to withdraw his troops for a while.

……

"Hey!"

With a sigh, Hu Hai stopped talking.After all, the greatest mission of the Jiuyuan Army is to fight against the Huns. Wang Ben and Wang Li led 20 cavalry southward.

This is already a violation of Shihuang's policy, and now, Hu Hai can't say anything more.

……

"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom..."

The admiralty bell rings six times, and the horn blares for a long time.Hu Hai and Wang Ben's expressions changed instantly.Wang Ben bowed solemnly: "Your Majesty, when the shogunate bell rings, something important must happen."

"Follow me to have a look!"

"Yes!"

……

It is said that it is the shogunate of the Qin army, but it is actually just a huge cowhide tent, standing in the center of the camp, guarded by heavy soldiers, and it is an important place in the army.

……

"General, Lin Feng's troops are here to report!"

"General, Hu Ge's department is here to return!"

"General, Zi Che all come to report!"

……

The golden drum sounded loudly, and the flags were unfurled. After a while, Lin Feng and other generals rushed over one after another and returned to their orders.

"Can the ministries still fight?"

……

"Jijiu Lao Qin, go to the national disaster together!"

Raising the tent and shouting loudly, Lin Feng and other generals took a step forward: "Even if we fight to the death, as long as we still have breath, we can fight and kill the enemy!"

Wang Ben's voice became hoarse, and his body was full of blood: "In this battle, although our army fought against the coalition forces of the princes, it failed to achieve its goal."

"In the battle with the main force of the Chu army, our army suffered heavy casualties. Whether it is for the Great Qin or for the people of the old Qin, the army must not all die in battle."

"Now that we want to defeat the allied forces of the princes, our army is seriously short of strength. What do you think about it?"

……

Mi He looked solemn: "My old Qin was born to be martial arts, as long as he is recruited by the big army, it is no problem to gather 20 troops in a hurry!"

"Yes, my old Qin is a martial artist, and I will be able to avenge and conquer the rivers and mountains!"

……

Hu Hai shook his head, paused every word, and said: "The old Qin people in Guanzhong are the foundation of the Great Qin Empire. If we continue to recruit troops, I'm afraid it will really shake the foundation of the empire."

"If all the old Qin people die in battle, Daqin will also exist in name only. Before the last moment, no conscription will be allowed!"

For a moment, all the generals in the tent were tearful and sighed: "Your Majesty, what should our army do now?"

Hu Hai slammed his fist on the long case of Qingshi, and said fiercely, "Up to now, there is only a fight to the death. All the generals are here today, and I only have one sentence."

"Today, you all live and die together with Hu Hai, and share honor and disgrace! If you can turn the world around, Hu Hai will definitely reward you for your merits! If you can't turn the world around, then Hu Hai and his brothers will die in the same hole!"

"Other than that, I can't give it to my brothers..." Hu Hai's head trembled, and he slumped down on the old sheepskin.

"His Majesty……"

Lin Feng brought over a water bag, saw Hu Hai took two sips, and bowed solemnly: "Your Majesty said, I am very grateful. We are all from the old Qin. We don't ask for anything in return. We only hope that the Great Qin will last forever, and the empire will last forever! "

"We are all from the old Qin Dynasty. We don't ask for anything in return. We only want the Great Qin Dynasty to live forever, and the empire will last forever!" He raised his tent and shouted loudly. At this moment, the generals of the Qin army were aggressive.

"I am ashamed!"

Seeing this scene, Hu Hai suddenly stood up and said, "Brothers, let's fight. As long as I am here, there will be food and grass for the army!"

"As long as I'm still here, Hangu Pass won't be broken!" After saying that, Hu Hai left the shogunate with strides and headed for the commander's tent.

……

Three days later in the early morning, with the howling north wind, Hu Hai, who was reading the military newspaper, was awakened by the heavy and hasty footsteps of Sima of the Chinese Army.

"Your Majesty, Lin Feng and the Commander-in-Chief sent a strange parchment book, which His Majesty must personally enclose."

Hu Hai suddenly sat up straight, opened the shiny white sheepskin, and a few lines of blood-colored characters rushed towards him, and the faint smell of blood permeated the air.

"Being an old Qin man, and then being a Qin army, if the Great Qin dies, we will have no home to return to, no country to vote for, we will die if we fight, and we will die if we don't fight!"

"For Great Qin, for His Majesty, and for Old Qin, we are willing to fight and fight for our lives in Hangu Pass with Your Majesty!"

"This, this is a blood book!" The Sima of the Central Army was shocked, and his expression changed drastically.

Without saying a word, Hu Hai was hoarding the parchment, his veins bulged, and his whole person's momentum changed drastically, with an endless evil spirit reverberating.

"Go, find Tong Wuhou!" After a long time, Hu Hai finally spoke.

"Yes!"

……

At this moment, Hu Hai's face was ugly, and he could no longer maintain his composure. The army sent blood letters, which is rarely seen in history.He didn't expect that it would appear here.

Hu Hai walked through the hall silently, and came to the map of the Great Qin territory hanging on the front, looking at the fragmented Great Qin Empire, with a heavy heart.

"Your Majesty, Wang Ben, pay homage to Your Majesty!"

Hu Hai turned around silently: "You don't need to be too polite, Marquis Tongwu, just be flat."

"Yes."

Wang Ben's eyes turned, and he fixed his eyes on the sheepskin document that was spread out in front of him.Due to years of killing, he is extremely sensitive to the smell of blood.

"Your Majesty, this is..."

Hu Hai took a deep look at Wang Ben, paused every word, and said, "You can have a look at the blood books written by the soldiers of the three armies."

Hearing this, Wang Ben trembled all over, bent down and picked up the blood book on the table, quickly opened it and browsed it, frowning greatly.

Blood book of soldiers!
Moreover, it was written in blood by soldiers of the three armies. The appearance of this scene made Wang Ben's heart sink.

"Your Majesty, as soon as the soldiers' blood letters are released, the morale of our army will be greatly improved, but it also means that from today onwards, the battle of Hangu Pass will never end!"
