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

Zhang Cang was so shocked that he was speechless.

When he first came to Guanzhong, he thought he might work himself to death there.

How much effort must be put into rebuilding a desolate and impoverished place?

I never expected that Xiang Yu would leave behind so many resources.

And now there are 50,000 elite troops.

The Qin state had weathered its most difficult period and had even successfully obscured Xiang Yu's vision.

Before the Qin state unified the Three Qin regions, Xiang Yu could hardly focus his attention on the Qin state.

It can be said that the Qin state has just encountered a golden period. As long as it can seize the opportunity, it can frantically improve its strength during this period.

"I was too narrow-minded. With the Supreme General and the Prince here, Great Qin has nothing to worry about!"

Zhang Cang clasped his hands in a gesture of respect and said with great emotion.

He shouldn't use the habits he had in Liu Bang's army to judge the Qin army today.

This is a mighty and glorious Qin warrior, reborn from the ashes with endless flames of revenge!

After the Qin state weathered its most difficult period, its most urgent desire was to unleash its power; it was almost hoping for some unrest.

Zhang Han smiled and said, "It's good that Lord Zhang understands. All truth exists only under the might of the Qin army."

"If you're going to be tough, then you have to fight back, otherwise people will think you're a coward and will keep trying to bully you even more."

"With sufficient strength, some enemies are simply not worth mentioning."

Zhao Long watched Zhang Han's excited expression and chuckled to himself.

Zhang Han has been holding back for far too long. Even during the period when he was a supreme general and swept across the land, he was still full of constraints, with a tyrant watching him from behind.

Even after being dealt a blow by Xiang Yu, the journey to escort Liu Bang to Bashu still required consideration of the impact of Xiang Yu's actions.

Finally, after Lü Matong's mission, the last shackle before the rise of the Qin state was removed, and Zhang Han could act freely!

Basically, it can be said that from now on, the Qin state no longer needs to be subservient to Xiang Yu.

The Qin army has already shown its strength; anyone who dares to continue being arrogant will be in trouble.

No doubt about it, get him!

"Actually, you all don't need to worry. As long as Xiang Yu doesn't launch an attack on Guanzhong this time, he won't have another chance for a year or two!"

"The State of Qi is no good place!"

Tian Rong unified the three Qi regions very easily. In reality, the people of Qi were also dissatisfied with the division of power among the various generals and longed for the once powerful Qi state.

Tian Rong was quite capable; he could win people's hearts and stabilize the region. However, he became too ambitious too quickly and died soon in history.

However, the desire for unification that he brought with him still remains.

Xiang Yu's continuous massacres in order to retaliate against the State of Qi further provoked the Qi people's resistance.

Soon, the State of Qi will be turned into a giant meat grinder, and even Xiang Yu's elite Chu army will be trapped in it.

This is the fundamental reason why he dared to devise a risky strategy from the very beginning.

If Qin could defeat Liu Bang, it would be a natural opportunity for the Qin army to reclaim the former Qin territory and fight against the other feudal lords.

At worst, the six states could launch an attack on Qin and see whose sword was sharper.

Will the Qin Dynasty be destroyed, or will it once again expand eastward and unify the world?

Qin Jian has never been at a disadvantage!

After the plan was decided, the Qin army acted quickly, stockpiling troops so that they could launch an attack as soon as they had enough. Everyone was putting in their best effort.

Two days later, in the Qin army camp, Zhao Long sat in the head seat next to Zhang Han. Looking at the many civil and military officials, Zhao Long smiled.

From having only a handful of soldiers at the beginning to now having more than twenty, the Qin army has changed since its great victory at Chang'an Village!

It gave too many people hope, and many powerful clans of Qin who had been completely disappointed with Qin also chose to join Qin with a portion of their forces.

The Yang family was completely incorporated into the Qin Dynasty.

Zhao Long glanced over and saw Yang Duanhe, Yang Xi, Yang Wu...

Furthermore, numerous great generals were by his side, including Han Xin, Lü Matong, Nei Shi Bao, and Wang Ling...

There's also Li Xin, who's far away in Hanzhong.

A whole host of civil and military officials! Zhao Long was in a very good mood looking at them.

This is the foundation for the Qin Dynasty to rebuild its future.

With this team, and I'm not exaggerating, if the current national strength of Qin could support an army of 500,000, within three years, the banner of Qin would be planted in every corner of the world!

It was completely, inside and out, belonging entirely to the Qin Dynasty, unlike the remnants of the six kingdoms that Liu Bang spent decades in the early Han Dynasty, until the Rebellion of the Seven States, before finally annihilating them.

Today, they have all gathered here, just to wait for one person!

One person who can enhance the strength of the Qin Dynasty.

Yang Jiu led several figures through the Qin army camp and witnessed the Qin soldiers training diligently.

In the sweltering heat, the Qin warriors trained shirtless, wrestling with each other with wooden sticks, their fierce eyes making it seem as if the people in front of them were not comrades, but enemies!

The elderly man at the head of the group asked with some curiosity, "Aren't you afraid of damaging the soldiers by training them like this?"

Yang Jiu said with a smile, "Sweat more during training, bleed less during battle. Even if you get injured during training, it's better than bleeding on the battlefield."

Everyone was immediately amazed, their eyes filled with endless light and memories.

This was still the Qin army camp outside Xianyang, but everything had become unfamiliar.

The Qin army here is even more rigorously trained than the elite Qin soldiers who marched eastward back then.

They are also much fiercer!

If they didn't know that the Qin army's elite troops had been completely wiped out in the past, and that these were newly trained soldiers, they would even doubt that they had encountered some battle-hardened Qin warriors.

As they advanced, they soon came into view of the elite troops guarding the main camp.

The soldiers' training became even more frenzied, and one could clearly feel the bloodthirsty aura emanating from them.

Yang Jiu smiled and introduced them: "These are the soldiers who just returned from Hanzhong not long ago."

The crowd couldn't help but look on with awe; these were warriors who had just won a great victory against 100,000 Han soldiers.

They haven't stopped striving to become stronger, training relentlessly, waiting for the next big battle to begin, and charging forward once again.

"I never imagined that the Qin state would see this day again..."

The moment he entered the main tent, the old man's eyes had already turned somewhat bloodshot.

"Greetings, Commandant."

Inside the large tent, everyone bowed in unison. Today, we have gathered here to await Wei Liao, the Commandant of the Great Qin Kingdom!

Especially the group of old Qin civil and military officials, who had worked with Wei Liao before, were genuinely happy.

The pillars of a nation are none other than these!

"You're all too kind. I'm just a simple man from the mountains..."

Wei Liao hadn't expected so many people to be here to greet him. He gave a self-deprecating smile. The old man, with his white hair and hunched back, still tried his best to straighten his body at this moment.

“You are the backbone of Qin today, bringing hope to the Qin state once again amidst destruction.”

"When I see the Qin army today, and when I see you, I understand why the Great Qin has been able to rise again."

"Everyone says that the Qin Dynasty has been abandoned by Heaven, but you have once again held up the sky for the Qin Dynasty!"

Zhao Long smiled and said, "We will do our utmost to rebuild Qin, and we will never forget the Grand Commandant. The Grand Commandant has always been a hero of Qin, not some country bumpkin!"

"It is a blessing for Great Qin that the Grand Commandant has returned, and this is the proper courtesy we should show."

Wei Liao slowly turned her head and looked at the young man who had spoken in the crowd, her eyes also filled with tears.

He recalled how he was unwilling to serve when he first came to Qin, but later Ying Zheng personally invited him, and he stayed in this country for thirty years.

I personally built its glory, and I never imagined that just as I was about to witness its downfall, I would see this person in front of me again.

They look so alike...

Wei Liao felt as if he were in a dream, a dream that had lasted for thirty years!

Now, that person's descendant stands before him, telling him, just as he did back then, that Wei Liao can become a hero of the Qin Dynasty.
