I switched allegiance to Zhang Han and rebuilt the Qin Dynasty; Liu Bang was heartbroken.

Lu Yi's speech and manners have always been excellent, and he rarely loses his composure.

Unless you really can't help it.

Just now, I couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Haha, the Han army has taken over Ba and Shu. Have you asked the Qin Dynasty for their opinion?"

"Has the Qin Dynasty agreed to let you, King of Han, take over Ba and Shu?"

Lu Yi's mocking voice made Chai Wu start to question his life. He looked at Zhao Long in disbelief, meeting his calm yet cold gaze, and a chill ran down his spine.

"I understand now. That's why the Qin army's tactics against the Han army have always been so ruthless, like rats in Guanzhong. They must have a much bigger scheme behind their great patience!"

"The Qin army did not merely intend to be a tool in Xiang Yu's hands to trap the Han army; they wanted to completely annihilate the Han army and swallow up Ba and Shu!"

The Qin army's ambitions were enough to encompass all the feudal lords of the entire world.

Everyone underestimated Zhang Han's ability to endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens.

Relying on salary and tasting courage, three thousand Yuejia can swallow Wu.

Moreover, it was the Qin army, the Qin army that was once invincible and awe-inspiring throughout the world!

It was the Qin Dynasty that emerged from countless crises of national annihilation, ultimately sweeping across the world and becoming invincible for all time!

They're going to conquer the world again!

Wrong. The Han generals and civil and military officials all guessed wrong.

Looking at Zhao Long, and recalling the Qin army's frenzied resurgence even after the destruction of their kingdom, and the Han army's current predicament, he suddenly felt a lack of hope that the Han army could win.

From the very beginning, the Han army did not take the Qin army as an enemy seriously.

To treat them merely as weapons in Xiang Yu's hands, used to besiege the Han army, was an insult to the Han army by Xiang Yu.

Little did they know, the Qin army was sharpening its weapons and enduring humiliation; they were the ones who were truly bearing the burden of hardship!

Having set aside all pride and willingly become a coward for a time, he was secretly sharpening his knife, ready to annihilate the entire Han army!

But the Han army is still laughing and joking, waiting for the Yi people to attack the Qin army, thinking they can reap the benefits without lifting a finger.

After Liu Bang, the King of Han, drove away Zhao Long, how ridiculous the Han army became!

Li Shang roared angrily, "What? Zhao Long, you actually want to support the Qin army and seize the Han King's fiefdom?"

"You traitor, you will not succeed."

"Have you forgotten? The Qin Dynasty was destroyed so quickly because the Qin army had even lost the hearts of the people in Guanzhong. The people had suffered under Qin for too long!"

"Only the people of the world can rebel against Qin, and only then can they storm Guanzhong and destroy Qin!"

"You want to support the Qin army? In the end, you will only die a horrible death!"

"Do you see those apathetic people in Liuba City? They have completely lost faith in the Qin Dynasty. Qin is beyond saving. You are courting death!"

"The King of Han is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. Once he arrives, the people will surely vie to support him. Then, let your Qin army fight your Qin army, and let's see if you can bring yourself to do it, hahaha..."

As Li Shang spoke, he became increasingly frantic and triumphant. "This old man is suddenly seized by youthful madness," he declared, "I am determined to avenge my brother and witness the day when the Qin army is annihilated!"

Lu Yi shouted, "Shut up!"

"Young master, I have been in Liuba for many years, trying to govern the people, but they have never forgotten the Great Qin. Many of them want to go back!"

"They were born Qin people, and they died as Qin ghosts!"

"The bloodline of the Qin people will never forget their roots!"

He was afraid that Zhao Long would blame him for not handling the matter of these Guanzhong refugees properly.

Zhao Long sighed. After Liu Bang entered Nanyang, the power of being the chosen one began to take effect. After establishing the three laws, he did indeed begin to continuously enhance his reputation.

At least Liu Bang's reputation was indeed the best among the feudal lords.

Historically, after Liu Bang entered Hanzhong, he had less than 30,000 soldiers left.

However, by the time they marched north to fight Zhang Han, they already had an army of 100,000.

Indeed, the Qin people who lived in Bashu had become utterly disillusioned with the Qin Dynasty, and that's why they changed their approach to find their way home.

But now, the Qin army is back!

Zhao Long took a deep, heavy breath: "Lord Lü, summon the people over first thing tomorrow morning!"

"Li Shang, open your dog eyes and take a good look at what a true Qin person is!"

The next morning, the numb people were summoned outside Liuba City.

They didn't know what the Qin army wanted to do, and they weren't afraid.

He just stared blankly at the top of the city wall.

Qin ultimately perished, and they had no idea what the future held for them.

Just then, Zhao Long, wearing a mask, stood on the city wall and bowed slightly.

"I am the strategist of the Supreme General of Qin. On behalf of Qin, I apologize to all the people of Qin. It is Qin that has wronged you!"

"I know everyone is disappointed with the Qin Dynasty. If we could survive, who would want to leave their home and travel so far away!"

"The Great Qin has failed its people!"

"sorry!"

The people's numb expressions finally began to change, and they looked up at Zhao Long in disbelief.

Under the rising sun, it seemed as if Zhao Long was gilded with a sacred golden light.

Many people couldn't help but cry.

Years of grievances and resentment erupted in one fell swoop, like a gushing spring.

Unexpectedly, one day, a general of the Qin Dynasty would apologize to them.

Zhao Long stood up and said, "However, I am not here today to complain to you all, but to tell you that I have returned to Qin, and Qin has returned!"

"I have come to Hanzhong to take you home!"

"Return to the land you love. The suffering is over. New Qin officials will punish corrupt officials, abolish all exorbitant taxes, and only 30% of the land tax will need to be paid!"

"Great Qin belongs to all of us. I have come to take you home and rebuild Great Qin!"

At this moment, even those people who hadn't cried before were now weeping with joy.

It should be understood that the people of Qin suffered the most during the Qin Dynasty's bloody war to conquer the world.

The land tax has always been around 50%, and at its peak it even reached 70% or 80%!

They never complained; they only hoped that the country would become stronger so that they could also live a better life.

However, the tyrannical Second Emperor never treated them as human beings.

Most of these people were among the worst off, forced to move south.

The people of Qin are not afraid of hardship, but they are afraid that no one will treat them as human beings.

What I fear most is the lack of hope for the future!

But now, someone tells them, "I've come to take you home!"

Where my heart finds peace is Guanzhong; where my heart finds peace is my home.

Guanzhong is their root!

Even the most apathetic people were completely moved at this moment!

At this moment, Lü Yi also stepped forward and said, "Do you all know that this young master helped Qin rebuild its economy? Now that the allied forces of the feudal lords have left Guanzhong, he has helped the people of Guanzhong resume production!"

"I am an official of the Great Qin. I have no regrets about coming to Guanzhong in this life, and I will be a Qin citizen again in the next!"

"Everyone, it's time to go home..."

Lü Yi has gained great prestige among the people over the years, and even he has returned to the Qin Dynasty. The people no longer have any doubts!

She also felt a strong liking for the young man wearing a mask.

"With such outstanding talents in Qin, it is certain that Qin will be able to rebuild itself and bring us a better life."

"We're home..."

The people began to speak up.

I don't know who started singing first.

"How can I say that I have no clothes, but I share the same robe with you..."

In the end, it turned into a grand chorus, with everyone singing together, filled with hope for the future.

Chai Wu and Li Shang watched from the side. Chai Wu's eyes were wide open as he stared at Zhao Long in disbelief.

Is he really just a strategist general?

He had no doubt that Zhao Long was like a renowned figure of the Qin Dynasty, whose every word and action inspired all the people to risk their lives!

If Zhao Long were to tell these people what to do right now, they would absolutely follow him madly!

"Li Shang, did you hear that? The sound of the wind blowing is the angry roar of the Qin people, filled with their resentment!"

Unwilling to accept the hardships of the past, they were determined to build an even more powerful Qin Dynasty!

Forget about supporting Liu Bang; from this moment on, these people became his mortal enemies.

Li Shang's face was deathly pale, and his lips were trembling slightly.

"Chai Wu, I'm running first. You cover my retreat. I must bring back news of the Qin army to report to the King of Han!"
