Saint Qin Batu

399章 匈奴

As time goes on, the cold wind in winter is getting colder and colder.More than a month later, the rebellion in Chu was quickly extinguished due to the presence of the general Wang Ben.

As for the rebellion in Dongjun, due to Fusu's personal supervision of the battle and Meng Tian's brave fighting, it has already retreated steadily.

Although this rebellion lasted for more than two months, its impact on the empire was still limited after all.

However, just when everyone in the world thought that after the rebellion was quelled, the world would return to the previous days.The two decrees issued from Linzi spread throughout the entire empire.

The decree is not very long, but the general meaning is to increase corvee and taxation for the counties where the rebellion occurred.At the same time, all the middle-class families in these counties were moved into Guanzhong.

Such a decree naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the common people and the aristocratic families.However, they have no choice.Because, Daqin's soldiers were still in front of them.

The second government decree is naturally to position Linzi as the accompanying capital.

As for the left-behind prime minister, Ying Zheng chose the right prime minister Feng Quji after careful consideration.

The reason is simple, compared to Li Si.Feng Quji also has a son who also has the status of a third prince, Feng Jie, the imperial historian.

Transferring Feng Quji to Linzi will more or less make him feel dissatisfied.However, compared to Li Si, such dissatisfaction must be much smaller.

Just when Yingzheng was making bold plans to reform all parts of the Kanto region, especially the old Qi and Wei, an unexpected piece of news came from Xianyang.

The letter was written on paper that Ying Zheng has now begun to issue.However, the red mark on the paper is particularly dazzling.

"The Xiongnu defeated Donghu's 30 army, and their strength increased greatly. Now there are 50 people who control strings!"

The ever-burning lights in the hall were flickering slightly, which made Ying Zheng's face a little uneasy.

Too early, Donghu lost too early, nearly ten years too early!

Although the Great Wall exists, it is full of loopholes, and even some areas have not been repaired for nearly a hundred years, and many of them have collapsed.

As for the cavalry, even if Yingzheng vigorously cultivated them after unification, they are still far behind the Huns who grew up on horseback.

"It seems that we have to go back to Xianyang as soon as possible..." Ying Zheng put down the urgent report in his hand and murmured softly.

"Your Majesty, General Wang Ben is back..." At this moment, the voice of an eunuch rang in Ying Zheng's ear.

"pass!"

Soon, Wang Ben in military uniform came before Ying Zheng.

Before Wang Ben could salute, Ying Zheng picked up the emergency report he had just put down and handed it to Wang Ben.

"The urgent report from Xianyang, let's take a look."

Wang Ben stared at the red mark on the paper, and was taken aback for a moment.In his memory, he hadn't seen such an emergency sign for ten years.

"The Xiongnu defeated Donghu so quickly!" Wang Ben also said in disbelief.

Donghu was supposed to be stronger than the Xiongnu. Even in a fight between the two, Donghu should have a better chance of winning.However, I didn't expect that the Xiongnu not only defeated Donghu, but also took such a short time.

"I never thought that Yi Touman, with his brave and foolish character, would be able to defeat the Donghu people so quickly."

"Your Majesty, please give me an army of 20, and I will definitely not let Toumanan make another move!" Wang Ben knelt down on one knee, and said with great momentum.

However, Ying Zheng shook his head slightly, and said, "If in the past, I would not have worried about you at all. However, judging by Touman's current strength, there must be someone around to guide him, otherwise, He definitely won't defeat Donghu so quickly..."

"However, Your Majesty, even if we don't trouble the Huns, I'm afraid, after the Huns defeat Donghu, the next target will be us." Wang Ben said with some concern.

Ying Zheng nodded, his expression obviously serious.

The Huns grew up on horseback and were proficient in equestrianism.Even if they can't beat Daqin, they can rely on the advantage of horses to evacuate at the least cost and retreat to the grassland.

On the contrary, it was Daqin, who won't be able to expand the fruits of victory if he wins, and will face the danger of the Huns driving straight into him if he loses.

No matter how you look at it, it seems that you are already at an inherent disadvantage before fighting.

Only gathering and annihilating is the only way for Daqin to defeat the Xiongnu.

"No matter what, let's pay it back first!" Ying Zheng waved his hand, and at the same time took out a Tiger Talisman from his cuff, and handed it to Wang Ben.

"You return to the capital first. It will take at least a month for my chariot battle to return to the capital. During this period, the military power in the Lantian camp is temporarily handed over to you."

"Here!" Wang Ben was stunned for a moment, and then took the tiger talisman from Ying Zheng's hand.

"Does Your Majesty think that the Huns will make new moves during this period?"

"Not bad." Ying Zheng's face turned cold again.

"It's impossible for the Huns not to know about this rebellion. Moreover, I can tell Wang Qing that the war between the Huns and the Donghu began when I patrolled the East!"

Wang Ben was startled, and said in disbelief, "Could it be that behind this rebellion, there are shadows of the Huns?"

"It doesn't mean that those people from the peasant family would lower themselves and join forces with the Huns. It is estimated that they just want to avoid danger in the rear while we are on a tour to the east.

I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but I didn't expect that the Huns actually defeated Donghu in one battle. "

"With Touman's mentality, it is absolutely impossible to do this!" Wang Ben also echoed.

In the entire court, apart from Guowei Weiliao, he was the one who knew the most about the Xiongnu.

"If the Huns take the opportunity to go south, Wang Qing must be careful!"

"Here!"

……

In the northern part of the Great Qin Empire, the original green grassland has now become a vast expanse of whiteness.

Groups of Hun soldiers with white mouths, riding on tall horses, drank strong wine and laughed loudly.

And behind them, there are more than a hundred Donghu people in uniform.The cold weather had already turned these people purple from the cold.

"Haha! This winter, you can live a good life!" A Hun soldier said with a smile.

"Yeah! I got a lot of women!" Another Hun soldier casually wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve.

"Hmph! A few Donghu women are worthy of such joy?" A Hun with a hundred generals sneered, and said, "In the south, those women from the Southern Barbarians are the real delicacy!"

"Yep!"

"Correct!"

"Hahaha!"

More than a hundred Hun people all laughed and echoed, their rough pupils filled with the smell of blood.
