Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 212 Only when you lose it, you know how precious it is when you have it.

Chen Chu stopped talking, and spoke frankly about the county lieutenant he was thinking about.He is well aware of Zhang Er's disposition, although this person is very loyal, but he is too suspicious.

Nan Hou Chen Yu and Chang Shan Wang Zhang Er came to this point, the former brothers fell out because of mutual suspicion.

Chen Chu's family knew his family affairs well, and he was not a life-and-death friend like Nan Hou Chen Yu.He used to be a retainer, but now he is a subject, no matter which one he is in, his status is not high.

His status in Changshan High School is very embarrassing, no matter whether it is reinforcements this time or not, it will not change this fact.

Because the reinforcement of Xindu will inevitably lead to the fall of Dongyuan, and the entire Hengshan County will fall into Chen Yu's hands.Failure to reinforce Xindu is disobedience.

Left and right are not people!
In this unchanging picture of troubled times, he, Chen Chu, was just a passer-by, a drop in the ocean.

Standing on the wall of the east wall, looking at the endless sky, at this moment Chen Chu had no desire to rescue Xindu, because he had more heart than strength.

At this time, what he was most worried about was whether Dongyuan could withstand this storm.But if there is a mistake in Dongyuan, Hengshan County will be completely submerged.

For so many years, Chen Chu fled under the constant pursuit of the Great Qin Empire, with countless sharp swords hanging from his head, the coercion of the court, and the provocations of rangers never stopped.

Only in the name of Zhang Er, a famous man in the world, relying on his calculations again and again, and relying on his own careful maneuvers, he escaped disaster after disaster and survived silently in the Central Plains full of swords and soldiers. .

However, this time was different, Chen Yu led the army to kill, and Dongyuan was in danger of overthrowing the nest immediately.At this moment, Zhang Eryuan was beyond his reach in the letter, so why didn't Chen Chu feel anxious all of a sudden?
Looking at the starry sky for a while, Chen Chu closed his eyes sadly, his thoughts were mixed for a while.

After many years of fleeing, the blood in Chen Chu's heart has become numb from the constant pursuit and escape, and his whole body has become resigned to fate.

Especially Chen Chu knew Chen Yu well, and knew how difficult and cruel this person was.At the same time, he is more aware of how embarrassing the situation between himself and Chang Shan Wang Zhang Er is.

The new Changshan Kingdom is not the same as the revival of the old country like Qin Zhao.Julu, the people of the three counties of Hengshan, did not have much recognition for Changshan.

Naturally, the people of Changshan would not be able to go to war generously when facing the rise and fall of their family and country.It will not even be like when the Chu State was subjugated, facing the great danger of subjugation, and fighting the final desperate battle in Chu.

The people of the country do not have a sense of identity. If Changshan Kingdom wants to survive forever, it must rely on the army in its hands to defeat Chen Yu's invading enemies.

Because the people of the country can't count on it at all.It is kindness to be able to avoid stabbing a knife in the back.

One king established a country, passed it down for several generations, and enjoyed the indoctrination of the world for hundreds of years. This kind of special Chinese plot, the sense of belonging to the motherland comes from the bottom of the heart.

Without a century-old foundation, without sheltering the common people and the people of the country to live and work in peace and contentment, without giving the people a common belief, it is impossible to form such a sense of belonging and identity.

This is also the fundamental reason why Chen Sheng swept the world at that time, but collapsed overnight.

……

Ordinarily, at present, Chen Yu's army broke through the suffering, and the entire army defending the city was wiped out.In any 100-year old country, it will be a time when everyone is in danger and the people's hearts are floating.

But it was not the case in Hengshan County. The news came that Kuxing City was destroyed and the entire army was wiped out.In addition to the shock of the county guard's mansion and the continuous deployment of military orders.

Whether it is an old man in his twilight years or a young boy who is still immature, the people of the country are at ease.He will not become suspicious at all, as if this matter has nothing to do with him at all.

If the people of the country are like this, can they be expected to defend the city with blood?In the final analysis, you have to rely on yourself to work hard.

Thoughts flickered in his mind, this time Chen Chu really had no bottom in his mind, even he himself feared that the city would be ruined and his family would perish.

"It's dry, be careful with candles—"

"It's dry, be careful with candles—"

"It's dry, be careful with candles—"

……

Walking down the city wall, Chen Chu boarded the bronze chariot and had just crossed the flat Qingshiban road, when the calls to call the watchman came over and over again, not unaware that it was already the third watch.

The moon and stars are sparse, black magpies fly south, and carts rumble away.Chen Chu knew that the life and death of Hengshan County was in his own hands.

He had a vague feeling that Chen Chu was definitely not suffering from lingering.At this time, he might have approached Dongyuan and was dormant in an unknown place.

It's like a poisonous snake dormant in the dark, waiting for the right time. As long as the time is right, it will definitely explode and attack.

This is also the reason why Chen Chu took the trouble to go to the city wall and inspect it again and again.There were not many defenders in Dongyuan, so Chen Chu felt uneasy and did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

Because he knows that any negligence may be the culprit of failure.

Now he can't afford to fail at all, and is used to living a comfortable and easy life.It is even more important to control the life and death of the people of a county with great power in his hands. Chen Chu does not want to lose such a life.

For a person who has never experienced loss, he will never know how precious this moment is.Chen Chu had lost it before, and he longed for this life to see the light of day more than anyone else.

Because of this, Chen Chu was very grateful to Chang Shan Wang Zhang Er.But he yearns for such a life and such a day even more.

A criminal who thought about hiding and hunting day and night suddenly had a bright and upright life in the daytime, and was rich and powerful.

People who haven't experienced it will never understand their desire for freedom.

At a certain time, especially when faced with a choice again and about to lose this comfortable life, this kind of desire will inevitably burst out with endless murderous intentions.

For their own sake, they will definitely take risks, even at the risk of dying.

This was the case with Chen Chu at this moment. After the county lieutenant's remarks, he was even more determined.Although he knew that Chang Shan King Zhang Er was in danger, he kept looking for excuses and reasons not to send troops for reinforcements.

This is human nature, people are never the most afraid of losing.It is the fear that what is lost and found will be lost one day.

It is only when you find it that you know how important it is. If you have not experienced the pain of loss, you will never understand the preciousness of possession.

Especially today's Chen Chu, who is the sheriff of a county.With soldiers and generals under his command, it can be said that he had never dreamed of a day.

When I was used to being a sheriff of a county, I was used to life and death.Chen Chu was naturally unwilling to become a hero again, running around to survive.

In this troubled world, Chen Chu knew a little better, that is, in troubled times, there are soldiers who are kings.In his opinion, as long as he holds Hengshan County in his hand, no matter who is the king of Zhao in the future, he will have a foothold.
