Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 347
Naturally, the proportion of princes and ministers staying in Xianyang is the highest.

On this day, all the high-ranking ministers in the entire Xianyang City received the order of the first emperor to ban wine and music for three days and three months, and immediately went to Xianyang Palace to participate in the Great Court Meeting.

As soon as they received the order from the first emperor, almost everyone murmured in their hearts.

Could it be that the Civil War went wrong.

"Plain clothes with an onyx crown, fierce clothes." Judging from the order of the first emperor, something bad must have happened.

But now that Great Qin is fighting on the two fronts in the north and south, if something happens, it can only be that something happened on the two battlefields.

According to the previously obtained information, the situation of the two battlefields is not optimistic.

Tu Sui on the southern line was beaten by the natives of South Vietnam for help, and several waves of troops have been added. Now the Qin army fighting on the southern line has reached an astonishing 50!

In the past, only 60 people were used to destroy the strong Chu, and 50 people were used to deal with some barbarians. If it weren't for the fact that Tu Sui was the first emperor Qiankun's arbitrarily appointed coach, countless people would have asked for it. Convicted Tu Sui.

As for the war against the Xiongnu in the north, the latest news today is that the Qin army took down Jiuyuan City with lightning speed and destroyed the tribe of King Youguli of the Huns.

Then the Qin army in Jiuyuan City was surrounded by a 10,000+ army led by the angry Xiongnu Shanyu.

It has been more than two months now that there has been no news of the army on the northern front.

However, the Qin army, which was originally strong and strong, had no soldiers to send except for some necessary local defenders. It watched helplessly that its Northern Expedition army was surrounded by the Huns but was unable to rescue them.

If something happened, I'm afraid the army led by Lord Chang'an and Meng Tian in the north is more likely.

Although Lord Chang'an was known as an undefeated general, no one expected that the Huns would mobilize so quickly and surrounded Jiuyuan City in such a short time.

No matter what you say in the south, there is a full 50 army, and even 50 animals will not be able to kill them in a short time.

A group of ministers hurried towards Xianyang Palace while thinking about countermeasures in their minds.

If the army on the northern front really collapsed, the north of Great Qin could be said to be a vacuum, unable to resist the Huns' invasion of the south.

The only option is to suspend the southern expedition and withdraw Tu Sui's army from conquering Baiyue.

When the princes and ministers arrived at Xianyang Palace, they found that the first emperor with a sad face was already sitting on the throne and waiting.

The original black court clothes were also replaced by a whole body of onyx clothes.

Seeing the face and attire of the first emperor at this time, the thoughts in the hearts of the important officials in the court were further strengthened.

It seems that something really happened!

The courtiers rushed towards the main hall one after another, but when they arrived at the main hall, they all saw that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the hall.

Carefully moved to his own position, no one dared to make a sound.

After waiting for a while and seeing that all the ministers in the hall had arrived, the first emperor said slowly: "Zhao Gao, let me tell you about the battle situation in Jiuyuan."

"Sure enough, something happened in the north!" Hearing these words, the officials in the palace thought to themselves.

"First the Xiongnu Shanyu besieged Jiuyuan City with 17 million cavalry from various tribes. Meng Tian led his army to defend Jiuyuan for two months, wounding more than [-] enemies.

Ten days ago, King Zuoguli of the Huns rebelled. Meng Tian led his army to take advantage of the situation and wiped out more than [-] enemies, and the Huns wounded themselves more than [-].

After the war, the Xiongnu abandoned Jiuyuan and went north. Our army took advantage of the situation to pursue and killed more than [-] Huns. "

After listening to Zhao Gao's words, all the officials in the hall were refreshed. In this battle and the King Youguli's court that had been defeated before, the number of Hun troops who died alone was 8 to [-].

For the big country in the Central Plains, 8 or [-] people may not be considered traumatic, but for the Huns, this is already an unbearable huge loss.

The Huns say that there are more than 20 people who control strings, but the Huns can be said to be all soldiers. There are more than 20 people who control strings, which means that they only have more than 20 young and strong.

Almost one-third of them were dead.

With such a big loss, the Xiongnu will not have the energy to plunder Qin in a short time.

Moreover, King Youguli had already lost all his elites. Once the Xiongnu army left, the entire Hetao area and the surrounded Henan land could be said to have become the possessions of the Qin army.

Although the world is now unified, the Xiongnu and Donghu in the north can be said to have always been the gangrene of the Great Qin.

Although in the north both Zhao Guo and Yan Guo built part of the Great Wall, they only protected the more important cities, and there were too many gaps in the middle.

Whenever there was a shortage of food on the grasslands, the Hu people in the north would often go south with their horses to plunder.

Since these Hu people are all cavalry, they come and go like the wind, and often when the Qin army arrives, they have already disappeared, causing the Qin army to only look around and sigh.

And this time the Huns suffered such a huge loss, I am afraid that they will not have much spare power to organize troops to go south to plunder.

However, the question came up again, such a big victory should be a happy event, why did the first emperor act like this.

Some active ministers have caught the loophole in Zhao Gao's words just now. The coach of the Northern Expedition this time should be Chang'an Junziying.

However, in what Zhao Gao said just now, there was no mention of Lord Chang'an, but only the deputy general Meng Tian.

"Could it be Mr. Chang'an who had the accident?"

The ministers in the hall didn't have any doubts for a long time. After Zhao Gao had just stated the achievements of the Northland, the First Emperor waved his hand slowly and continued, "Read again."

Hearing the first emperor's order, Zhao Gao picked up a battle report again.

And this one is Ziying's deeds based on the battle reports of Meng Tian and the prefects of Dai and Yanmen counties.

"The Lord Chang'an led his army across the great river at night, and after destroying the tribe of King Youguli, he led an army of [-] troops deep into the grassland, detoured for hundreds of miles, and raided the Xiongnu Shanyu Wangting, and burned the Shanyu Wangting. The Wangting guards killed more than [-] women and children. Butcher,

Rescued more than [-] women who had been kidnapped by the Huns, and escorted them back south with [-] troops. These have reached Yanmen County.

Touman Shanyu sent the right general Ashina with 46 soldiers to pursue Chang'an Lord and wiped out Chang'an Lord, and then leaped thousands of miles eastward to slaughter [-] Xiongnu tribes.

Later, the Xiongnu Shanyu sent his prince, Maodun, to continue chasing Lord Chang'an with [-] elite soldiers, but it was too late.For Lord Chang'an, he defeated the royal court of King Zuoguli of the Xiongnu, and all the courtiers were slaughtered.

King Zuoguli of the Xiongnu thought that Shanyu could not be rescued, so he rebelled angrily.

At that time, thousands of women from Zhao were rescued in the royal court of King Zuoguli, and Lord Chang'an ordered thousands of people to escort them back to Daqin.

In order to attract the attention of the Huns, the emperor of Chang'an led [-] cavalry as bait and crossed the desert north. "

Having said this, Zhao Gao paused for a moment, swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva to moisten his throat.

Zhao Gao's words just now made all the officials in the hall feel a little inconceivable.
