I created Qin Tianjian in modern times

Chapter 659: The Power of Law, Called

Li Xin returned in defeat, which was the biggest defeat in Qin's war of unification after the Battle of Anyi.

……

"Snapped!"

Before Li Xin led his troops back to the city, the messenger had already passed the news from the front line back to Qin.

When the King of Qin learned that Li Xin was defeated and had to flee back to his country, he slammed the table in anger.

"How is it possible! In this battle, Qin State has the advantage of time and place, how could it lose to Chu State?"

The King of Qin was puzzled. In his mind, this battle was a sure win and it was also the most confident battle he had ever fought.

However, such a sure-win battle has now resulted in Qin's complete defeat.

The State of Chu once again gained a chance to catch its breath during the encirclement and suppression by the State of Qin, and the King of Qin had to postpone the process of unification.

The King of Qin was very angry at the moment, and no one in his royal court dared to say a word.

If anyone offends the King of Qin at this time, he will surely suffer a catastrophic disaster.

The King of Qin was upset and drove away all the civil and military officials, then angrily sent Li Taishi to call Zhu Qingyang and others.

When they heard the summons, Zhu Qingyang and others knew very well that the King of Qin must have learned the result of the battle and was calling them to question them.

The team members were inevitably a little nervous, but Zhu Qingyang seemed calm and composed.

"Don't worry, it's okay, I can solve this problem..."

As he spoke, Zhu Qingyang took the initiative to open the door and led his team members to follow Li Taishi to the main hall.

As soon as he entered the palace, the King of Qin glared at Zhu Qingyang and others:
"This battle is lost, what do you have to say?"

The meaning of King Qin's words is very clear.

He only gave these people one chance to speak, and when the opportunity was used up, he would execute them without hesitation.

Facing the emperor's wrath, Zhu Qingyang remained calm.

After paying his respects to the King of Qin, he began to speak:
"King Qin, the victory or defeat of this battle has already been decided by heaven. If you don't believe me... just take out the bamboo slips I gave you and you will know!"

The King of Qin was stunned. After learning about the battle situation, he was so angry that he had completely forgotten about the bamboo slips.

Now that Zhu Qingyang reminded him, the King of Qin immediately took out the bamboo slips behind him and looked at them with confusion.

"An emperor throughout the ages must experience three disasters and five tribulations.

A man of great power will surely live; a man of great virtue will surely live long.

This is the destiny of heaven and earth..."

Looking at this line of words, King Qin fell into deep thought.

The meaning of this sentence is very clear. This battle is bound to be lost. It also explains why Zhu Qingyang made such arrangements. It was to help him deal with this natural disaster.

Zhu Qingyang did not make this up, but it was indeed the truth.

The King of Qin was born twelve months later and first experienced an ordeal in the womb.

This also verifies Zhu Qingyang's words that a powerful person must be able to survive.

Whenever a powerful person is born in this world, there will be strange signs at his birth.

The King of Qin was destined by heaven to be the greatest emperor of all time, so naturally he had to go through the three disasters and five tribulations.

After understanding this, the King of Qin gently put down the bamboo slips in his hand and looked at Zhu Qingyang and others in confusion:
"For this battle, Qin lost 200,000 soldiers. This is my own misfortune. What does it have to do with Qin?"

Zhu Qingyang answered without hesitation:
"This world will eventually belong to the King of Qin. If we don't go through these three disasters and five calamities, does the King of Qin want the people of this entire land to share the blame with him in the future?"

After hearing this, the King of Qin was silent for a while, then he sighed deeply:

"I am ignorant and have offended the Immortal. I beg for forgiveness."

Hearing these words, the team members secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that they had just escaped the brink of death.

At the same time, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that the King of Qin was not as cruel as later legends said, at least not yet.

Perhaps it was precisely because of the King of Qin's character that he was able to ultimately achieve great things.

"My fellow immortals, has the State of Chu always been a stumbling block? After losing this battle, the State of Chu will surely recover quickly and make a comeback.

At that time, they might even collude with Qi. If so, when will our Great Qin be able to unify the country?"

The King of Qin expressed his worries, but Zhu Qingyang had obviously already made up his mind:

“King Qin, this defeat was to help you deal with this disaster, not because Qin was unable to fight against Chu.

At that time, all the king of Qin needs to do is to send out his troops again, with Wang Jian in command, and the victory of this battle will be certain for our great Qin."

After hearing Zhu Qingyang's words, a glimmer of hope flashed in King Qin's eyes again.

And because of Zhu Qingyang's words, Li Xin unexpectedly discovered that the King of Qin did not blame him.

Not long after, the King of Qin ordered Wang Jian to take command and send troops again, which showed the King of Qin's determination to annex the State of Chu.

Veteran General Wang Jian led his army to fight against the State of Chu again.

However, on the battlefield, Wang Jian was surprised to find that there were some people in the Chu army who were wearing alchemist costumes but not armor.

At first, Wang Jian did not take it seriously and sent his generals to fight the enemy.

But the other side sent out a Taoist priest who seemed to know some magic. He chanted a few spells and made the general fall to the ground and be captured.

After several battles, the Qin army not only failed to gain any advantage, but also lost a lot of generals, which made Wang Jian very anxious.

He quickly wrote a letter and sent it to the State of Qin.

……

After receiving the news from the front line, the King of Qin immediately called Zhu Qingyang and others and told them about it.

For the first time, a rare look of astonishment appeared on Zhu Qingyang's face.

He realized that this seemed to be somewhat different from the established development trajectory of history. How could those alchemists affect a battle that should have been won?
If they lose this battle again, it means that they have changed history again and made history develop in an unknown direction.

The team members cannot bear this consequence, because no one knows what China will become in the future if it continues to develop in this direction.

Therefore, after private discussions, the team members reached a unanimous solution.

"King Qin, we cannot lose this battle. We must go to the battlefield and lend a helping hand to the Qin army!"

Hearing this, the King of Qin was naturally overjoyed. He believed that with the help of Zhu Qingyang and others, they would definitely win.

Zhu Qingyang and his companions rejected the King of Qin's proposal to hold a grand banquet to see them off.

The team members still hope that as few people as possible know about their existence.

Several fast horses carried the team members day and night, rushing towards the battlefield.

This road is not easy to travel, and even if the team members work without sleep, it will take several days to reach the destination.

As night fell, the team members found a place to rest temporarily.

After leaving Qin, the team members finally stopped being so cautious about what they said.

"Master Gou, is everything that is happening now within your expectations?" Facing Han Feng's question, Zhu Qingyang shook his head honestly and said slowly:
“We have always guided the actions of the King of Qin according to the history we know to ensure that nothing unexpected will happen to China’s future.

But I only now realize that there are actually many uncontrollable factors. For example, the alchemists of the Chu State are not what we imagined, and the development of history does not necessarily lead to the same result just by following the established trajectory.

Just like now, after the Battle of Chengfu, Wang Jian personally led the army to fight, and encountered difficult problems, didn’t he? "

After hearing this, Pan Zi frowned and asked in confusion:

"But if our previous assumption was that the Qin Dynasty history that we know today was formed because of our changes, then why is there no mention of us in history?"

Zhu Qingyang pondered for a moment, then replied:
"What if we ask the King of Qin to keep our existence secret and not record anything about us?"

When Pan Zi heard this, he suddenly realized that history was written by the victors, and the truth or falsehood of it could no longer be verified.

"In other words, the history of the Qin Dynasty that we know so well in later generations really became like that because of us? And we are destined to come to the Qin Dynasty and help the King of Qin unify the six kingdoms? But if so, why did the Heavenly Dao erase us and let us end up like that?"

Yang Xueli frowned and looked at Zhu Qingyang in confusion.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Qingyang raised his head and said to the team members:
"Haven't you noticed? Since we came here, the sky has become increasingly gloomy..."

The team members looked up and saw that the sky was covered with dark clouds and thunder could be heard from time to time.

Zhu Qingyang picked up a branch, drew a straight line on the ground, and continued:

"During this period, I have been thinking about our relationship with the river of time, and now I have some clues.

Our fate is to be suddenly annihilated by the heavens. We came to the Qin Dynasty to investigate what we did to attract the annihilation of heaven.

I think the answer is obvious. We helped the King of Qin unify the six kingdoms and fulfilled our destiny. The punishment from heaven appeared in the last days of the law when we were overcoming the calamity. "

Zhu Qingyang's speculation was so bold that the team members were stunned and speechless for a long time.

"What's the logic behind this? Are we constantly reincarnating and repeating the same thing?"

It was rare for Zhang Qilin to say so many words in one breath. Zhu Qingyang nodded gently:

“Everything in the world is in reincarnation. When you look beyond this established perspective, you will discover this.

It’s just that most of the time we are lost in the cycle of reincarnation and have no way of knowing the truth.

Of course, this is just a hypothesis. The only way to verify this hypothesis is to push the development of history.

Therefore, we must help Wang Jian win this battle and make all the results consistent with the history we know in order to avoid other accidents.

I know it’s complicated, and I know there are parts that I can’t even explain, but what else can we do?”

At this point, Zhu Qingyang looked at the players carefully and asked the question he had always wanted to ask:

"How about it? Do you want to give it a try?"

Looking at the silent crowd, Pan Zi was the first to shrug:

"Anyway, I don't know how to go back now. I can't change anything. If I go back, I'll just be a dead person.

What else is there to worry about? "

As he spoke, Pan Zi placed his hand on the hand that Zhu Qingyang extended.

"Master Gou, I hope you can be more reliable this time."

Yang Xueli also put her hand on Pan Zi's hand, followed by Zhang Qilin and Han Feng. They looked at each other and made the same decision without saying a word.

At this moment, the team members finally reached a consensus, and Han Feng and others finally understood the big game set by Zhu Qingyang.

The grudges between them were resolved, and they finally understood the next task and decided to work together to overcome the difficulties.

The next morning, Han Feng and others mounted their horses early and continued to gallop towards the battlefield.

In order to resist the fierce offensive of Qin State, the State of Chu actually mobilized the power of alchemists.

However, this fact has left no trace in later history.

Zhu Qingyang quickly understood the reason because they were now deeply involved in this history.

After the battle, Zhu Qingyang thought to himself that he would never let the King of Qin record their existence in history.

Similarly, those alchemists will surely be forgotten by history.

In this way, Zhu Qingyang was finally freed from his previous predicament. They were not changing history, but guiding history along the established trajectory.

……

At the same time, the battle situation was stalemate outside the Chu city gate.

The Qin army had besieged the Chu State for many days, and Wang Jian, the marshal, became anxious because he had not been able to break through the city gates.

He knew nothing about Chu's food and grass reserves, so he did not dare to adopt siege tactics easily.

Moreover, the delay of the war was extremely disadvantageous to the Qin State, and no one could predict whether the Qi State would take the opportunity to "besiege Wei to save Zhao".

After all, Qin now only has two rivals: Chu and Qi. The two countries are interdependent and one of them will affect the whole body.

No one can stay out and escape the ravages of war.

The Chu State already had a strong military force, and with the addition of those mysterious alchemists, the Qin State's several attacks all ended in failure.

On this day, Wang Jian led his army to attack the city again, only to see the gate of Chu city wide open, and several people dressed in alchemist costumes riding on tall horses.

The leader had long flowing beard and high bun on his head. At first glance, he looked like an immortal.

However, as soon as this person opened his mouth, that image collapsed instantly.

"Where is the commander of Qin? Come here and die!
Otherwise, I will wave the soul-calling banner in my hand and you won’t even have the chance to beg for mercy!"

In front of the Qin army, Wang Jian rode on a tall horse, looking majestic and extraordinary.

As one of the main generals of the Qin State, he naturally has extraordinary bearing.

"You are just some evil people, and you dare to shout in front of the battle. You are so bold!"

Although Wang Jian was a veteran, his voice was still loud and full of energy when he challenged the enemy in front of the battle line.

In his hand he tightly grasped his beloved broadsword, which was made of wood but was very heavy.

Wang Jian was born with supernatural strength. At the age of nine, he could pull a bow of fifty stones.

Therefore, even this wooden sword can pose a considerable deterrent to the enemy.

"I will meet you in person later!"

Wang Jian squeezed the horse's back, and the warhorse under him neighed loudly, carrying him forward.

Facing the aggressive Wang Jian, the leading Taoist priest was not panicked at all. He took out a strange black flag from his arms.

He waved the small flag, muttered something, and made a strange hand seal with his left hand.

In an instant, the bodies of the soldiers who had died on the battlefield stood up one after another.

They opened their eyes, with a strange red light flashing in them, and they mechanically surrounded Wang Jian with weapons in their hands.

Wang Jian was shocked. He had wondered why the State of Chu did not transport the bodies of the dead soldiers back to the city after the war. Now he realized that they had planned it all along.

He swung the sword in his hand and slashed at the soldier in the front without mercy. (End of this chapter)
