Da Qin: From a disciple of Fusu to a generation of imperial masters

Chapter 458: The letter sent back by Han Xin and Meng Tian! Coming back soon!
Meng Yi looked at Li Si, a smile appeared on his face and he said: "Since the Prime Minister knows Mr. Lin Xuan, I have nothing to hide."

"It is a good thing for Daqin to have Mr. Lin Xuan here."

After Meng Yi finished speaking, there was a hint of emotion on his face.

Li Si nodded slightly after hearing Meng Yi's words, and said with a serious face: "Brother Meng Yi is right."

"The changes that Daqin has seen today have a lot to do with Mr. Lin Xuan."

When Fusu heard the praise from the two, a smile appeared on his face.

Li Si and Meng Yi were both important officials in the court, and now they were both impressed by their teacher.

Xianyang City Palace, Qin Shi Huang’s study!

In the study, Ying Zheng was reviewing memorials with a smile on his face.

"Snapped!"

About half an hour later, Ying Zheng closed the memorial in his hand and looked at Zhang Han beside him and said:
"Zhang Han, how long do you think it will take to pave the roads for all the cities in Daqin this time?"

Zhang Han, who was standing nearby, heard the words of the First Emperor and said, "Your Majesty!"

"I am not clear about the roads, but I think all the ministers in the court have agreed."

"The production of cement is also accelerating. I believe it won't be long before all the cities in Daqin have cement roads."

Zhang Han looked at the First Emperor and expressed his thoughts.

Ying Zheng nodded slightly when he heard Zhang Han's words and said, "I think the same as you."

"This time, the road was built by Fusu's teacher Lin Xuan, and the cement used to pave the road was also provided by Lin Xuan."

"If it would take too long to build the road, Lin Xuan would not have made this suggestion to me."

"I also think that it won't take too long to build the road."

Ying Zheng looked at Zhang Han and expressed his thoughts.

Zhang Han nodded slightly when he heard what the First Emperor said.

After a while, Ying Zheng looked at Zhang Han and continued, "Have the warriors from the Black Ice Platform been sent to each city?"

"Your Majesty, I have carefully selected some warriors from the Black Ice Platform."

"These warriors have left Xianyang City and headed to various cities."

"The warriors from the Black Ice Platform have already arrived at a city not far from Xianyang City."

"Even cities far from Xianyang can be reached by warriors from the Black Ice Platform in a few days."

"Once these warriors arrive in the city, they will disguise themselves as ordinary civilians."

"When the road is being built, these warriors will watch from the dark."

"If there is a problem, these warriors will report back."

Zhang Han looked at the First Emperor and told him his arrangements.

When Ying Zheng heard Zhang Han's words, he nodded slightly, with a hint of satisfaction on his face.

This method was also told to him by Lin Xuan, and Ying Zheng thought it was a good one.

The warriors of the Black Ice Platform are naturally highly skilled in martial arts, smart and resourceful, and good at disguise.

Such warriors are most suitable to be sent to various cities to investigate the situation.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"

Zhang Han looked at the First Emperor and bowed.

"Oh?"

"I grant your permission!"

Ying Zheng looked relaxed as he looked at Zhang Han.

"Your Majesty, General Han Xin and General Meng Tian sent a soldier back to deliver a message."

"The soldier has returned to Xianyang City and delivered this letter to me."

As Zhang Han spoke, he took out a letter from his sleeve and placed it in front of the First Emperor.

When Ying Zheng heard Zhang Han's words, his eyes lit up. Han Xin and Meng Tian had been away from Xianyang City for some time.

There was no news coming back, and Ying Zheng was still thinking about this matter.

Today, Han Xin and Meng Tian finally sent soldiers to deliver the letter back.

Ying Zheng picked up the letter that Zhang Han had placed in front of him, opened it and read the contents carefully. Zhang Han did not say anything else, allowing the First Emperor to quietly read the handwritten letter sent back by Han Xin and Meng Tian.

The study became very quiet, with only the scent of soothing incense surrounding the entire room.

"Snapped!"

Ying Zheng slammed the letter in his hand hard on the table in front of him, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.

"Han Xin and Meng Tian really lived up to my expectations and won a great victory in this battle."

"They have already started their return journey with their army and will be able to return to Xianyang City in the next two days."

Ying Zheng looked at Zhang Han and told him the contents of the letter.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Zhang Han looked towards the First Emperor, with a hint of excitement on his face, and bowed.

As a military general, he was naturally happy to hear the news of a great victory.

Ying Zheng nodded slightly when he heard Zhang Han's words and said, "Han Xin and Meng Tian said so in the letter."

"This time they brought back a lot of resources. Not only did they suppress the enemy, they also brought back resources."

"I will give a generous reward to both of them, as well as to the soldiers who went out with them."

Zhang Han was also very happy when he saw the happy Qin Shi Huang.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Han said, "Your Majesty, this time General Han Xin and General Meng Tian will lead a large army to fight."

"This time we are not only equipped with artillery, but also with the gunpowder gun newly developed by Lin Xuan."

"Did the two generals mention in their letter how important gunpowder guns were in this expedition?"

Zhang Han looked at the First Emperor and expressed his thoughts.

Ever since I learned about gunpowder guns and experienced them myself.

Zhang Han really wanted to use gunpowder guns again, so this time Han Xin and Meng Tian brought a batch of gunpowder guns to the expedition.

Zhang Han really wanted to know how powerful the gunpowder gun was.

Ying Zheng nodded slightly when he heard Zhang Han's words and said, "I know that you, Zhang Han, are interested in gunpowder guns."

"However, Han Xin and Meng Tian did not mention gunpowder guns in their letters. We can only wait for them to return to Xianyang City."

"You will know how powerful the gunpowder guns were in this expedition only if you ask these two people in person."

Zhang Han nodded slightly when he heard what the First Emperor said, "I understand!"

"Now that I know when these two will return to Xianyang City, I must let Han Xin, Meng Tian and other soldiers know how much I value them."

"I have decided to let Fusu take my place to welcome the triumphant return of Han Xin, Meng Tian and other generals."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

When Zhang Han heard what the First Emperor said, he bowed and the Emperor asked Prince Fusu to go and greet him.

This is enough to let others know that Your Majesty attaches great importance to Han Xin, Meng Tian and the soldiers.

Not far from the river bank outside the city gate of Xianyang, Fusu, wearing his official uniform, was looking at the river in front of him with a smile on his face.

Behind Fusu stood some ministers, who also followed the emperor's order and came with Fusu to welcome the triumphant army.

"Sir, everything has been arranged at the warehouse."

"I am also ready to transport the soldiers of the resources."

Meng Fang came to Fusu and said with a bow.

Fusu nodded slightly when he heard Meng Fang's words. Suddenly, a smile appeared on his face and he looked at Meng Fang and said, "Brother Meng Fang, relax a little."

"General Meng Tian has returned triumphantly this time. You don't need to be so nervous."

Meng Fang, who looked nervous, smiled bitterly when he heard Fusu's words:
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, sir. I am indeed a little nervous."

Meng Fang looked at Fusu and did not defend himself.

Fusu smiled and nodded. He could understand Meng Fang.

After all, Meng Fang and Meng Tian have a very good relationship. Now that his brother has returned triumphantly, he is happy but also nervous.

"Look, sir, a dark shadow has appeared on the river."

Meng Fang, standing next to Fusu, pointed to the river ahead.
