I am already immortal, why should I ascend to become an immortal?

Chapter 312: Xianyang rewards everyone except Jin Chan

The last soldier in the Central Plains!

Looking at Xinling Jun who had turned into a shadow, and the huge Dragon City behind him.

Meng Wu, Meng Tian and others guessed it immediately that it was the Wei Kingdom's Central Plains troops who were causing trouble.

However, no one knew what this thing was or what its function was.

"Crossbowman, shoot the arrow!"

"The whole army charges with me!"

Meng Wu frowned, veins bulged on his forehead, he stretched out his right hand toward the sky, and issued military orders immediately.

The Qin army acted like the wind.

moment.

I saw arrows flying all over the sky, drawing an arc in the air, and then falling towards Dragon City like a torrential rain.

Arrows pierced through the mist, passed through the city walls, through the crowds, and through the roofs.

It was like a stick poking into the moon in the water.

It just created ripples in circles.

"kill!"

The hot-tempered Meng Wu never believes in evil. He doesn't care whether you are the most powerful soldier in the Central Plains or some other messed up thing.

He raised the long sword "Po Xi" in his hand, clamped his legs towards the horse's belly, and rushed towards Xinling Jun, whose figure was already blurred dozens of meters away.

One knife, two knives, three knives
Even though Meng Wu chopped him countless times, Xinling Jun in front of him was still like a floating cloud.

"Tell Jin Chan that he will never get the Lone Wolf Seal of the Great Wei Dynasty and the Central Plains' unique weapon in his lifetime!"

Ha ha ha ha.
Xinling Jun's arrogant laughter was like revenge, venting all the resentment in his heart.

And a moment later.

I saw the vast thick fog, like broken stars, turning into particles of light, drilling into the sky, and drifting towards the north of the Central Plains.

"Meng's army, the One, Two, Nine, Eleventh Battalion, the Smoke and Sand Cavalry, the Yellow Sand Cavalry, follow me to hunt down Lord Xinling!"

Just when Meng Wu felt powerless, Meng Tian raised the Yunlai spear in his hand high above his head and shouted to the Meng family army behind him.

These battalions have one thing in common, that is, they are all cavalry battalions.

"Dad, Brother Jin told me before he left that although Lord Xinling's life is not worth mentioning, the Lone Wolf Seal and the Central Plains Soldiers must be recovered."

"I'll go ahead and leave marks along the way. As for the specifics, there's no time to talk about it now."

Done.

Meng Tian was seen leading a battalion of 200,000 cavalrymen, raising clouds of dust on the plain and galloping towards the north.

"Meng Yi, you will lead 100,000 troops and be responsible for the complete conquest of Wei State. The rest of you will follow me to the north."

Seeing nearly 90% of the army's cavalry being taken away by Meng Tian, ​​Meng Wu cursed inwardly, but he could only lead the slow-moving army slowly forward.

Six months passed.

Meng Tian and his army have arrived at the northern Di border.

Looking at the endless grassland ahead and the dividing line between it and the loess plain.

Longcheng stands alone in the northernmost part of the Central Plains.

"Enter the city!"

Meng Tian gave the order.

As the army slowly entered the city, they saw that the city was already deserted.

However, there was still some heat from the fire, and some messy tables and chairs that were not covered with dust.

Meng Tian could be certain that the remnants of Wei had not been away for too long, and most likely had been gone for less than two days.

"General, we can't chase them anymore!"

The two generals of Yansha Cavalry and Huangsha Cavalry were the backbone of the Meng family army. Although they did not understand the Northern Di, they were very familiar with the Western Regions barbarians in the western border of the Qin Dynasty.

If the army continued to march deeper, the consequences would be disastrous.

If things go wrong, maybe they will all be buried in there.

"Keep marching. Anyone who disobeys orders will be executed!"

Meng Tian let out a long sigh, as if he had made some kind of decision, and resolutely issued military orders to everyone.

I had a quick meal.

Because this time we are traveling light, at most we can just pick up a small amount of supplies along the way.

The soldiers looked at their empty food bags. They knew that this journey deep into the Northern Di would not be a life-threatening one, but it would still be full of dangers.

Half a day later.

As soon as the 200,000 Meng family troops stepped into the grassland, they felt a breath they had never felt before.

The strong wind was mixed with the fragrance of green grass, the sweetness of wild flowers, and a faint smell of earth.

This wind is not as gentle and reserved as the breeze in the Central Plains. It seems to have its own temper, wild and unruly.

The soldiers of the Meng family army seemed to have returned to the days of fighting against the barbarians in the Western Regions.

After ten days of marching.

Meng Tian found the long-lost remnants of the Wei State.

There are 50,000 people, all of whom are elite troops.

Unfortunately, Xinling Jun himself was not among them.

It seemed as if they were left behind intentionally.

After dealing with these people
Meng Tian did not dare to delay for a moment and continued riding north.

This time, he was gone for nearly eight months.

It was not until after countless battles that only 3,000 exhausted soldiers were left out of the 200,000 elite troops that they returned to the heartland of the Central Plains.

Even Meng Tian himself was seriously injured and almost died.

However, it was this journey deep into the northern barbarians that allowed Meng Tian to become one of the four famous generals.

And just after more than 3,000 people returned to the Central Plains.

Meng Wu's army also arrived at the border in time to provide support.

On the other side of the grassland.

Countless Wei troops and northern barbarians were lined up in the battle formation.

Xinling Jun was riding on horseback in the front, his eyes were cold and full of murderous intent, the corners of his mouth twitched from time to time as he looked at the Qin army in the distance.

And his handsome face was actually scratched with a scar extending from his eyebrow to the corner of his mouth.

The scars are horrifying and the skin and flesh are turned inside out.

of course.

The most important thing is that the Lone Wolf Seal of Wei State has been stolen by Meng Tian.

This also ended his idea of ​​returning to the Central Plains in this life.

As for whether future generations will have the opportunity to return to the Central Plains, that is another story.

A few more months passed.

When the Meng army returned to the capital, they met Wang Jian and others who were attacking Chu outside the city of Xianyang.

"Brother Mengwu, you have a good son. He actually went deep into the Northern Di and snatched the Lone Wolf Seal from Lord Xinling!"

In the camp.

Generals such as Wang Jian, Meng Wu, Bai Ma Cuo, and Li Xin sat in front of the campfire and spoke freely.

The aroma of the greasy roasted lamb and wild boar wafts in the air.

There were at least three jars of fine wine at everyone's feet.

Looking at Xianyang City a few miles away.

Not only did the generals relax, but even the soldiers who had not been home for a long time did the same. They ate meat, roasted fire, and drank wine, having a great time.

"General Wang, thank you for your praise. If it weren't for General Tian Ji's timely support during this infiltration into Beidi, who helped me familiarize myself with the terrain and formulate a plan, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to get the Lone Wolf Seal back, and I'm afraid I would have been in trouble with those barbarians."

Meng Tian was modest and did not take all the credit for the victory. And this time, he was indeed able to rely on the timely support of Tian Ji, a former Qi veteran stationed in the northern border.

Otherwise, Meng Tian, ​​who had just entered Beidi, might suffer a great loss.

"Haha, General Meng is too modest. You are definitely the one who made the greatest contribution to this Northern Expedition against Wei."

Wang Jian laughed a few times, then picked up the wine jars, clinked them together, and drank them all in one gulp.

After three rounds of drinking.

Everyone was a little drunk.

When they thought that the King of Qin would reward them in the Qilin Hall of Afang Palace tomorrow, they were all excited.

However, it was not entirely because of the reward. A large part of the reason was that after tomorrow, Ying Lou would definitely take action against the only remaining two countries in the Central Plains, Zhao and Tang.

The Central Plains, which has been in chaos for nearly a thousand years, will be unified in this life.

They will all be witnesses and participants of this great feat which will definitely go down in history and be remembered for eternity.

"But speaking of which, does any of you know where Brother Jin has gone?"

After a burp, Meng Tian suddenly asked with a red face.

And as soon as these words came out.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet.

There was only the sound of the wind blowing and the swaying of the campfire.

"I don't know, maybe the bounty-bearing general will show up tomorrow."

Even though the Golden Cicada has not appeared for two years and has not participated in any battle.

But Meng Wu, Wang Jian, Meng Tian, ​​Li Xin and others all knew in their hearts that the reason why the Qin Dynasty was so close to its goal of unifying the Central Plains was that Jin Chan had made great contributions and his achievements were recorded in history.

The Three Kingdoms united at Hangu Pass.

Jin Chan defeated Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao.

Then, he retrieved the body of General Bai Qi from the midst of thousands of soldiers and horses.

Use your physical body to resist Lian Po's attack, which burns his life and breaks through the spirit of millions of soldiers and is enough to break through the pass.

Use heaven-reaching means to disperse the plague that could destroy a country.

When destroying Qi, he single-handedly killed Tian Jian's ghost army formation and then killed the Qianzhang Immortal.

The Meng family army was trapped in a desperate situation in the valley, and it was thanks to Jin Chan alone that he persuaded King Zhao to move and facilitated the alliance between Qin and Zhao, thus saving 370,000 lives of the Meng family army.

This series of outstanding achievements was the important reason for the unification of the Qin State.

Although Jin Chan did not participate in the southward expedition to destroy Chu or the northward expedition to destroy Wei.

But everyone knows that what they can do, Jin Chan can also do, but what Jin Chan can do, none of them can do.

the next day.

Inside the Qilin Hall of the Afang Palace, the candlelight was bright, illuminating the entire hall brilliantly.

King Ying Lou of Qin sat high on the throne, wearing a black dragon robe.

The crown on the head had twelve bead curtains hanging down, swaying slightly.

Although it obscured his deep and sharp gaze, it added an unfathomable aura.

Your Highness.

Wang Jian and Meng Wu stood at the front.

Meng Tian, ​​Li Xin and Bai Ma are placed in the second row.

Following them were Zi'an, Ying Ji and Zhuan Zhu.

The rest of the generals were at the end, lined up in an orderly manner.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone!"

Ying Lou stood up, took two steps forward and spoke.

The voice was deep and powerful, like an ancient bell echoing in the hall.

Just five simple words made all the officials in the court bow their heads and say at the same time: "For the eternal life of the Great Qin, we will go through fire and water."

About four years have passed since Han's coming-of-age ceremony.

In addition to handling state affairs and discussing new policies with Li Si, Ying Lou also took nine concubines into the harem.

nowadays.

In addition to the prince "Su" born to Huayang, a son and a daughter born to Hong Wenyu, and two sons born to Han Nian'er, there are eight more children.

"This time, we attacked Han, Chu, Wei, and the city of Luoyang. All of you generals have made great contributions."

"The reason why our Great Qin now has such a vast territory is because of the bravery and bloody battles of our Great Qin men. I will remember every fallen soldier and every drop of blood. You are the heroes of the Great Qin and the backbone of the Great Qin."

"You have made an unparalleled contribution to the great ambition of the Qin Dynasty to unify the world!"

Ying Lou paused.

These words have already made your Highness's ministers excited.

It seems as if the unification of the Central Plains is right before our eyes.

"Today, I will present rewards to all the generals one by one in this Qilin Palace. This is not only a reward for your military exploits, but also a token of the gratitude of the Great Qin to you."

"You are the treasures of the Qin Dynasty and the warriors I trust most."

Ying Lou stretched out his right hand and shouted loudly.

The atmosphere in the entire hall reached its peak at this moment.

All the generals felt the weight of the King of Qin's words. They stood taller, with excitement and pride flashing in their eyes, waiting for their moment of glory.

"General Meng Wu, you have been stationed at the border of the Western Regions for many years, defending our Great Qin against foreign enemies. You also fought Xiang Yu on the north bank of the Huai River, and then led your army to complete the great cause of destroying Han and spreading the power of our Great Qin. Today, you are granted the title of Marquis of the Nineteen Passes, and enjoy 20% of the tax revenue for one area."

"General Wang Jian, the north bank of the Huai River has also made great contributions. The battle to destroy Chu was brilliant, and it laid an important foundation for our Qin to unify the world. Today, he is named the Marquis of the Nineteen Passes, and enjoys 20% of the tax revenue for one area."

"General Meng Tian, ​​fearless of life and death, led his troops deep into the Northern Di alone and snatched back the vital Lone Wolf Seal from the hands of Wei Wuji, a remnant of the Wei Kingdom. He was specially awarded for his first merit in the war against Wei. Today, he is named Marquis of the Nineteen Passes and enjoys 20% of the tax revenue for one area."

"General Li Xin, you have made unparalleled military achievements in the Three Kingdoms Alliance at Hangu Pass, and destroyed Qi, Han, and Chu on the north bank of the Huai River. You are an unparalleled general of the Qin Dynasty. Today, you are granted the title of Marquis of the Nineteen Passes, and enjoy 20% of the tax revenue for each area."

"General Zi'an also fought bravely at Hangu Pass, conquered Qi, Han, and Chu, and went to the north bank of the Huai River. He made numerous military achievements and is now named one of the Eighteen Great Shuzhang."

"The Imperial Censor Luoyang, who made plans between the tents and won battles thousands of miles away, although he was not a military commander, he also made contributions. Today, he is promoted to the rank of Grand Commandant and concurrently the position of Imperial Envoy, and is ranked among the Three Dukes."

"White Horse Mistake"

By the time all the generals, including Sunan and others, had been rewarded, it was already the second half of the day.

Following Zhao Gao's order, all officials moved to another palace, and a banquet was held in Yinglou to welcome everyone.

But on the way there, both military generals and civil officials were whispering to each other.

The topic of discussion was nothing more than the first meritorious official, Jin Chan.

"You tell me, why doesn't the king reward Brother Jin? Such a person is definitely a blessing to our Great Qin and the people!"

Meng Tian and fellow generals such as Li Xin, Zi'an, and Meng Yi walked to the back of the team and discussed in a low voice.

Even the small Luoyang, whose people were not even in Xianyang, was listed among the Three Dukes, so there was no reason why Jin Chan should not be rewarded.

"How would I know? With Boss Jin's merits, let alone being a twenty-year marquis, he's even qualified to be the king of a place."

Zi'an frowned. Although he was still immersed in the joy of the reward, he couldn't help feeling indignant about the injustice suffered by Jin Chan.

"Don't make any assumptions. How could the king not know this? And with your wisdom and bravery, how could he not have Brother Jin? In my opinion."

The youngest one, Meng Yi, showed a cunning smile, and it seemed that everything was within his expectations.

"Brother Meng, stop keeping us in suspense and tell me, do you have any inside information?"

Zi'an put his arm around Meng Yi's shoulders and leaned forward to listen.

The same thing happened to Meng Tian and Li Xin next to them. They all became curious.

"Think about it, with Brother Jin's ability, how could the king not know his importance?"

"Tell the important point!"

Looking at Meng Yi who was boasting and preparing for a long speech, several people immediately gave him a "gentle" warning.

"It must be a marriage. It is said that the king's sisters have reached the age of marriage. Maybe the king is preparing for this!"

Although Meng Yi's words were a bit outrageous, several people felt that there was nothing wrong with it.

　It turns out that people can't sleep for too long. I drank some rice wine on Saturday night, took some melatonin, and slept for 17 or 18 hours on Sunday. My head was so sleepy that I felt like it was going to explode, and I couldn't type anything on the keyboard.
