Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 257 A Few Lines on the Bamboo Slips of the Study Chief’s Case (Part [-])
You must know that the Great Qin Empire is no longer the most powerful country in the world that swept across the wilderness and the six regions.More importantly, in the Warring States period, once a major battle was fought, all countries would take advantage of the situation and get involved in an attempt to draw chestnuts out of the fire.

What's more, the Great Qin Empire is enemies all over the world, and it doesn't have a single ally.Looking east, there are blockades outside Hangu Pass one after another.

The nations blockade, the kings are hostile!
Only in this way, it is extremely beneficial to the Great Qin Empire to delay the struggle for hegemony with the countries of the Central Plains, and then avoid a direct decisive battle with the three counties of Liaodong and Western Chu.

But Qin Ershi Hu Hai knew better that the Great Qin Empire must break through the blockade.Otherwise, the Great Qin Empire will lose the chance to unify the world once again.

Now that Chu and Qi are going to war, it will inevitably sweep the Central Plains in a short time.Whether it is Zhao, Liaodong will not miss it.At this time, although the Great Qin Empire was far away from Liaodong and Western Chu, Hu Hai had suddenly smelled the strong breath of confrontation between old enemies.

He knew that whether it was the three counties of Eastern Liaodong or Western Chu, after the pacification of Shandong, there must be a war with the Great Qin Empire.At that time, the Great Qin Empire will have no choice but to fight if they don't want to, otherwise the country will die!

As the king of a country, Hu Hai had already expected a series of wars in the future and did not relax his preparations. After all, the Great Qin Empire is now in too dangerous a situation.

Even so, the changes in the situation on the Central Plains still made him feel so unexpected that he couldn't figure it out hastily.

On the land of the Central Plains, the general trend must be that the three kingdoms of Qin, Chu, and Liao will compete for the final battle.But under the premise of this general trend, no one is willing to sit back and wait for the extinction of all countries on the Central Plains.

Everyone has the desire to survive!
……

Qin Emperor Hu Hai stayed in the main hall of Xianyang Palace for a day and a night, while Han Tan kept guard in the corridor outside the hall, with a worried look on his face.

He knew Hu Hai very well, and because of this, his impressions at the moment were extremely complicated.For the former Qin Ershi Hu Hai, he hated iron for being weak, but for the current Hu Hai, he felt a little distressed.

In the past, Hu Hai let the majestic Great Qin fall into pieces, which was heartbreaking.Now that Hu Hai has come to his senses, he is no less diligent in governing and loving the people than the first emperor.

Such a second emperor, while comforting Han Tan and some other elderly people, can't help but feel distressed.They share weal and woe with the fate of the Great Qin Empire.

Because of this, Han Tan and others are extremely concerned about Hu Hai's physical condition.Since retreating to Guanzhong, every once in a while, there will be an examination by the imperial physician.

……

For the countries in Shandong, the old Qin people hated two countries the most, one was Western Chu, and the other was Liaodong.

Qin and Chu were once feuds. After the war of destroying the country, Qin and Chu were at odds.Now Xiang Yu's sudden rise has overturned the majestic Great Qin to pieces, and Qin and Chu will never die.

The same Great Qin Empire also has new hatreds for the three counties of Liaodong.Ten miles away from Hangu Pass, before King Xiang, Liu Ji was the only one who broke through the Guanzhong portal of the Great Qin Empire.

It can be said that since the outbreak of troubled times, all the crises faced by the ruling and opposition parties of the Great Qin Empire came from Liu Ji.Therefore, the old Qin people in Guanzhong hated Liu Ji even more than Xiang Yu.

After the rise of Liu Ji, he has always been one of the people who caused great trauma to the Great Qin Empire. Liu Ji brought pressure on the old Qin people in Guanzhong to destroy the country. The hatred gradually faded away.

Although the person who really shook the foundation of the Great Qin Empire was Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, but first of all, the feud between Qin and Chu came first, and the old Qin people did not hate Xiang Yu.

Qin Chu has a world feud, and it is an eternal feud!
That being the case, the rise of the Chu people caused the Great Qin Empire to be torn apart, and the old Qin people naturally felt great sorrow while feeling emotional.

How high-spirited and arrogant the first emperor was back then, General Wang Jian led an army of 60 to destroy Chu, directly shaking the world at once.

However, in the hands of Hu Hai, the Great Qin Empire was torn apart.Because of this, the old Qin people did not hate Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, but were extremely dissatisfied with Hu Hai.

Above the main hall of Xianyang Palace, Hu Hai's eyes drifted away, and he couldn't wait for time. At this moment, there was a trace of longing and excitement in his heart.

It has been two years since he came to this era. The blood of the Great Qin Empire, the loyalty and bravery of the people of the Great Qin Empire, and the spirit of great struggle gathered by the entire Great Qin Empire have moved him.

Because of this, after a short period of thinking, Hu Hai decided to kill Zhao Gao and save the fragmented Great Qin Empire.

This empire has a mysterious charm.Make people crazy, make people fascinated.

Especially now, Hu Hai has fallen in love with this mysterious empire, but it is like a flash in the pan in the sky of history, like a meteor across the sky.

Born as an emperor, he should do his best to make the Qin Empire stand proudly on the Central Plains again.

This time, Hu Hai is not only trying to survive, but also trying to keep the brilliant Great Qin Empire from dying in the second generation, so that the wildness of the Huaxia people will completely disappear.

His eyes flickered, Hu Hai turned and returned to the study.Staying in the main hall of Xianyang Palace is just an environment suitable for thinking about things.

The empty hall will give Hu Hai a sense of responsibility to carry forward.Being able to put enough pressure on him made Hu Hai more rational here.

In addition to this, the biggest reason is that there is no urgent official document in these two days except for the Shandong war report.There is no need for Hu Hai to stay in the study all the time, staring at him.

As for the many transactional petitions that need to be implemented immediately, they have all been transferred to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Since the Great Qin Empire withdrew to the Guanzhong, almost all the affairs handled by Hu Hai's study in person were related to the general strategies of the various battlefields in Shandong.

And almost all of Qin's internal affairs were undertaken by Ziying's prime minister's mansion.In addition, there are the Supreme Court of the Empire, the Supreme Law of the Empire, and the General Administration of the City Guards are constantly maturing.

Now the internal affairs of the Great Qin Empire reassure Hu Hai.Regarding the deployment of the anti-Qin forces in Shandong and their backhands, this is the top priority of the Great Qin Empire in the next few years.

When he came to the study, Hu Hai looked at the study full of bamboo slips and smiled bitterly.After walking two steps, I couldn't help but glance at the desk.

All the books on the desk are spread out letters, and on the wall in the middle is a map of the situation in the world. The fragrance of ink is still there, and it is obvious that it has just been drawn.

Hu Hai walked to the long case and stood still, looking at the words and sentences on the long bamboo slips, which were a little complicated. The few lines on the long bamboo slips were:

Who will be the general of the Qin army going east?
Can the Great Qin Empire support a protracted war?

Are the old Qin people still fearless of death, willing to die for the Ying family and kill the enemy for the Great Qin?
When the Qin army left Hangu Pass in the east, should they take Hedong County first or attack Sanchuan County first?
