Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 289
"How dare Zhao Gao do this?" Zhao Zhen's expression was a little inconceivable, but more of an anger.

"His Majesty the Emperor learned from nowhere that Zhao Gao was concealing the Kwantung Battle Report, so he was furious and secretly summoned a group of people to capture Zhao Gao when he entered the palace. Unexpectedly, he was detected by the Black Ice Terrace, and Zhao Gao immediately mobilized the city. The Waihu cavalry battalion entered the city and personally led an army into the palace to kill His Majesty the Emperor!" Tan Xiong told everyone about the news from Tan Ling, and there was no lack of regret in his words.

In fact, Qin Xiong knew that Hu Hai was able to get the Kanto Battle Report, which was secretly leaked by Gongzi Ziying, Han Yu and others.The purpose is to help Ziying to the throne and keep Qin in Guanzhong.Unexpectedly, Xiang Yu's three armies all marched into the pass, and Wang Li secretly took refuge in Xiang Yu.After thinking about it, Tan Ling sent someone to inform Tan Xiongruo that Xiang Yu would surrender when he came to protect his family.

After Tan Xiong received the news of his brother Tan Ling, he thought that if he waited until Xiang Yu arrived before surrendering, he might not be able to continue serving as a general in the army, so he called everyone to discuss whether to surrender to the Guanwai Longqie Department immediately.In this way, in order to appease the tens of thousands of Qin troops in Guanzhong, Qin Xiong was still able to master soldiers and horses.

"The eunuch Zhao Gao will surely die!" Zhao Zhen cursed loudly after hearing Tan Xiong's words.

"So what's the situation in Xianyang now?" Yao Ang and Su Jiao didn't curse Zhao Gao like Zhao Zhen, but asked Tan Xiong.The two of them urgently need to know the real situation in Xianyang today.

"My brother ordered the old servant at home to send a message, saying that the streets in Xianyang City are full of Hu Qiying soldiers. The garrison in the city has been transferred out of the city by Zhao Gao, and everyone in the court is in danger. The Hu Qiying soldiers have nothing to do. There is no law to deceive the people in Guanzhong wantonly on the street. The streets of Weiyang are no longer crowded with people like in the past, but it has become an empty city. He took a deep breath, and then told Yao Ang, Su Jiao, and Zhao Zhen what he knew.

Su Jiao and Yao Ang heard from Qin Xiong's words that the situation in Xianyang was dangerous, and they asked Qin Xiong, "Does Zhao Gao want to take Ying Zhao and replace him?".

"But I don't know!" Tan Xiong answered Su Jiao and Yao Ang very honestly, and then expressed his guess. "If Zhao Gao wants to win Zhao and replace him, he will definitely kill the royal children and the old clan of Daqin in Xianyang City. But I learned from the old servant that in Xianyang City, only those who followed the emperor's class and killed Zhao Gao , the rest is fine."

"Then Zhao Gao just wants to change the emperor?" Zhao Zhen calmed down the anger in his chest at this time, and asked Qin Xiong and the other three.

"I'm afraid Zhao Gao wanted to usurp the throne at the beginning, but due to the corruption of the Kanto War, the Allied forces of the Six Nations invaded the pass. Therefore, I will temporarily entrust the Zhao royal family. As long as we can repel the Allied forces of the Six Nations in the Kanto, it must be Zhao Gao usurping the throne." It's time!" Yao Ang is also a veteran and has experienced many coups in the Qin State, so he knew Zhao Gao's plan after a little thought based on the current situation.

Afterwards, Yao Ang asked, "Do you know how old General Sima Cong is doing now?"

After Sima Cong and Zhang Han divided their troops, they were transferred back to Xianyang by Zhao Gao.The soldiers and horses under his command were also returned to Zhang Han, which forced Zhang Han's original plan to be cancelled.If it weren't for this, the Qin army that wiped out the Wei State first and then fought against the Chu army, the outcome is still unknown!
"I don't know!" Qin Xiong shook his head upon hearing this. "All I know is that after General Sima was transferred back to Xianyang, he was put under house arrest by Zhao Gao. Because of this, the officials in Xianyang city didn't dare to visit, and my brother didn't dare to visit because of my family!"

"Hey!" Hearing this, Su Jiao sighed. "Feng Xiangguo is under house arrest, as is Old General Sima. Is there any hope for me, Great Qin?"

The people present heard Su Jiao's words and fell silent.

Everyone knows that even if Ziying can kill Zhao Gao and win the throne of Qin, according to his ability, he cannot lead the people of Qin to defeat the people of the six kingdoms of Kanto who have been suffering for a long time.And the world was unified by the Qin State, and it was impossible to return to the state where the seven heroes stood side by side.Even if there is, it is only for a while!There must be a hero who will lead the army to seize the whole world and be called the emperor!

After a long time, Su Jiao said: "I agree with the general, descend to Chu!"

Later, Su Jiao explained: "I will lead an army of tens of thousands to Chu, and it will inevitably lead to chaos. Chu Xiangyu will definitely let me continue to command the army as generals. Thank you, Zhang Han and Li You, for being able to stay in the Chu camp." The right to speak will not be suppressed by Chu people in the future!"

"What General Su said is true!" Tan Xiong nodded in agreement. "In addition, we have a large army. The soldiers of the six countries in the Guandong dare not do evil after entering the Guanzhong. We have protected the people of the Qin State! We are worthy of our ancestors, and even more worthy of the deceased martyrs of the Qin State !"

The words of Tan Xiong and Su Jiao made Yao Ang and Zhao Zhen deep in thought, but their thoughts were very different.Yao Ang was weighing the pros and cons, while Zhao Zhen was thinking about how to persuade Tan Xiong and the others to fight against the enemy with manpower.

Seeing that Yao Ang and Zhao Zhen didn't answer, Qin Xiong and Su Jiao looked at each other.Finally, Tan Xiong said: "Since you haven't figured it out yet, let's go down first. Wait until tomorrow, and we'll discuss it later!"

Zhao Zhen got up and asked, "Then who is going to guard the front of the pass today?"

"General Su and General Yao will go there for the next few days! I will also send people to Chuying to find Cheng Chun, and fight for a truce for my soldiers in the pass!" Qin Xiong seemed to have made up his mind a long time ago. After Zhao Zhen asked Immediately give the order.

Hearing this, Zhao Zhen, who originally planned to send people to the Chu camp to provoke Qin Xiong and Su Jiao, who planned to go to the Chu camp to provoke Qin Xiong and Su Jiao, could not help but sigh secretly.

Yao Ang, who nodded in agreement, got up and left first, followed by Zhao Zhen, who felt that Tan Xiong and Su Jiao had changed.

Only Su Jiao and Tan Xiong were left in the hall, and they looked at each other speechlessly.

"General Su and General Yao have a better relationship, please persuade him! As long as General Yao agrees, then we will have nothing to worry about!" After half a stick of incense, Tan Xiong let out a long breath.

"I will do my best!" Su Jiao didn't dare to promise, so he had to answer first.

Yao Ang came out of the temporary General's Mansion and looked west, feeling a sense of worry about not knowing what to do in the future.

Shaking his head, Yao Ang calmed down with a soft drink and decided to go back to his residence and then secretly summoned his friends and subordinates in the army to discuss whether to follow Tan Xiong, Su Jiao and others to descend to Chu.

On the other hand, after leaving the general's mansion, Zhao Zhen planned to gather his subordinates to get rid of Tan Xiong and Su Jiao who wanted to defect to Chu.But at the same time, he also worried that he would be betrayed by his subordinates and become a step up for others.Therefore, he secretly pondered which of his subordinates could be trusted and which one could not.

The four generals in the Hangu Pass each have their own thoughts, while Long Qie in the camp of the Chu army outside the pass is secretly saddened by the letter sent by Xiang Yuling Yingbu.
