Daqin: The poorest prime minister, the first emperor begged me for corruption

Chapter 283 If you really like this guy, you can choke him to death three times with just one sentence!

Qin Mo's 100,000 troops joined the reserve army in encircling and suppressing the Western Regions, and together with Meng Tian's 20,000 cavalry, they launched an outflanking campaign.

They have no way to go to heaven and no door to earth, so they descend simply and neatly!

The front line is sandwiched between Lop Nur and Yumen Pass, and the elite legions of the Western Regions countries, which have been cut off from food and grass, have become turtles in a jar!

"Hahaha, Prime Minister Qin came quickly enough and at the right time. The reserves of food and grass for the elite army in the Western Regions should have been completely exhausted..."

Meng Tian laughed and dismounted to greet Qin Mo personally, but then said with some lingering fear: "If Qin Xiangruo doesn't come again, I'm really afraid that those elites from the Western Regions will jump over the wall and turn around to fight back at all costs. I have used up all the 20,000 Qiang cavalry and firearms.

They are probably no match for them, let alone stop them!"

Qin Mo turned over and dismounted, smiled and clasped his hands and said: "In the final analysis, the general still has confidence in the juniors, otherwise he would not take such risks."

"Junior, the mission has been completed, this tiger talisman will be returned to the general~!"

With that said, he took out the tiger charm from his arms and handed it back to Meng Tian.

From this moment on, the command power returned to Meng Tian again, and Qin Mo was in charge of the army again.

Meng Tian was not polite. He took the tiger talisman with both hands and put it away close to his body. He asked with some hesitation: "I heard that Prime Minister Qin was assassinated by Qiang soldiers in the army. Is it true or false?"

Ying Zheng asked him to go to the plateau to take over the command, and sent Dan Shu and Zi Du to accompany him, for the sake of Qin Mo's safety and to prevent him from taking risks.

To put it bluntly, it doesn't matter if he loses the battle this time, and it doesn't matter if he lets hundreds of thousands of elites from the Western Regions escape. But if Qin Mo makes a mistake, then even if he destroys the Daxia Kingdom west of Congling, it will still be a crime.

Mo Dayan!

If Ying Zheng knew that Qin Mo was assassinated by a Qiang soldier in the army, then it would definitely be unlucky not only for the Qiang assassins and those behind the scenes, but also for the entire Xiqiang ethnic group...

Qin Mo probably understood his worries and nodded: "But there was an assassination by Qiang warriors. I was not injured. On the contrary, it was Miss Lu who was injured by a firearm in order to protect me. She is almost recovered now."

"However, this matter does not involve the Qiang people on the plateau."

"Those Qiang assassins belong to the Loulan Nu Qiang Tribe. They were originally under the command of Loulan General Toliti. They were recruited into my army at Chiyan Pass by accident."

"Speaking of which, I was lax in running the army and did not strictly check the origins of the officers and soldiers. I can't blame others!"

Meng Tian suddenly nodded, and glanced at Lu Xiaomei, who was lying on the window of the carriage behind him. Seeing that her pretty face was still pale as if she had just recovered from a serious injury, he couldn't help but gritted his teeth and said: "The Gu and Qiang tribe should be slaughtered~!"

Qin Mo was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and explained: "Everything about massacre or not is all fake. Even the cities of the countries in the Western Regions have not been massacred by this generation."

"With so much hard work, if they were slaughtered, wouldn't it hurt someone's heart to death?"

"The so-called slaughter of those who resist is just a gimmick to create panic and scare people!"

At this time, Meng Tian was stunned, blinked his eyes, and said doubtfully: "But...according to what the prisoner said, the view outside Shanshan City is as tall as a mountain..."

Qin Mo didn't wait for him to finish, then he took over and said: "It's hollow. Only the outer layer is filled with the Loulan defenders who died when they breached the city. The inner layer is made of wooden shelves filled with sand!"

Meng Tian: "..."

Is this what you mean by ‘being a fool’?

Be taught, be useless!

Meng Tian shook his head dumbfounded, changed the topic and asked: "Prime Minister Qin, do you have enough firearms in the army?"

"If there are enough, we may cooperate with Han Xin at Yumen Pass and we can also take the initiative to poke the butt of the elite Western Region Allied Forces and accelerate their collapse!"

Now, the hundreds of thousands of Qiang troops in the hands of the two men seem to be huge, but if they really confront the elite of the Western Region Allied Forces, they will still have to rely on firearms to win.

Otherwise, you will definitely end up losing more than you win!

"Firearms are still sufficient..."

Qin Mo nodded in reply, but then added: "However, in my opinion, we don't have to rush to attack."

"Build a joint camp to block the retreat of the elite Western Region coalition forces. Han Xin will take the initiative to break the situation... He has a weapon in his hand that is thousands of times more terrifying than firearms. If used properly, he can kill him without spending a single soldier." Force the surrender of hundreds of thousands of elite Western Region Allied Forces!"

Meng Tian raised his thick eyebrows, his eyes showing surprise and confusion.

What big killer?

Can it be thousands of times more terrifying than firearms?

Monkey Sun’s Golden Cudgel?!

…

…

Qin Mo and Meng Tian led an army of 120,000 Qiang people, which had blocked the retreat of the elite army in the Western Regions. When news of the victory reached Yumen Pass, Ying Zheng clapped his hands on the table with joy.

After that, he issued an edict urging Han Xin and Zhang Cang to march into the army and defeat the elite army of the Western Regions that had begun to kill horses to satisfy hunger as soon as possible and was on the verge of collapse.

Zhao Gao went to deliver the edict in person. Han Xin accepted the edict, said only that he would obey the edict, and left, leaving Zhao Gao very embarrassed.

Fortunately, Zhang Cang, the supervisor of the army, was very enthusiastic and good at getting things done. He was busy hunting yellow sheep, and held a camel feast to entertain Zhao Gao.

However, Zhao Gao did not leave the banquet the next day because he was tasked with urging the troops to march. He did not dare to go back to give Yingzheng a mission before Han Xin marched.

Zhao Gaofei was not familiar with military matters. He had learned a little bit about it when he was in the Land of Baiyue. After leading the guards around the camp for a while, he discovered something was abnormal.

Han Xin accepted the imperial edict, but made no move to advance the army!

Zhao Gao went to Han Xin with a dark face and asked, "General Han, why didn't you follow the imperial edict and march into the army?"

Han Xin put down the official document in his hand, looked up at him with a dead face, and replied dryly: "The troops have been sent in."

Zhao Gao: "..."

Zhao Gao took a deep breath, suppressed his speechlessness and asked again: "The soldiers are in the camp. May I ask General Han, what kind of soldiers have entered?"

"Does the angel want command?"

Han Xin took out the golden tiger charm from his arms and asked indifferently.

Zhao Gao: "..."

Zhao Gao was really convinced by this man who could choke to death three times with one sentence. Naturally, he did not dare to take the tiger talisman. He rolled his sleeves angrily and said: "I will write a memorial and send it to your majesty."

After that, leave the Chinese army tent.

Han Xin put away the tiger charm and continued to deal with military matters, not taking Zhao Gao's threat seriously at all.

However, he didn't take it seriously... His personal guards were almost unable to hold back their urine. It was normal for his general to offend others, but this time he definitely went too far.

How big is your heart if you dare to offend the First Emperor's envoy?

The guard captain and his subordinates looked at each other and exchanged glances, then quietly left the Chinese army tent, and Sayazi ran to Zhang Cang's tent to ask for help.

In this world, Zhang Cang will wipe the butt of his old partner Han Xin!

When Zhang Cang learned that Han Xin's tough guy had actually offended Zhao Gao, he couldn't help but trembled with fright. He hurriedly went to Zhao Gao to apologize to Zhao Gao.

Zhao Gao had a good impression of Zhang Cang, and he also knew that he was a disciple of Xunzi's sect and the younger brother of Han Fei and Li Si, so he was willing to give him face.

Moreover, Han Xin and Zhang Cang are both ministers of Qin Mo's Hexi Kingdom. If Zhao Gao really sues them, they will probably hate Qin Mo.

Thinking of Li Si's miserable life, he definitely didn't want to get into trouble with Qin Mo!

"I don't have to send this memorial to Your Majesty, but I want to see the troops march before tomorrow." Zhao Gao said seriously.

His bottom line is right there, and Ying Zheng's explanation is greater than anything else.

Zhang Cang breathed a sigh of relief, grinned and said: "The troops have already marched, they have already marched this morning!"

Zhao Gao frowned and said with a slight annoyance: "Are you lying to me too? Is it possible that I can't tell whether the troops are in or not?"

Zhang Cang shook his head repeatedly, clasped his hands and explained: "Order of the Zhao family, it is not necessary to send out all the troops to advance the army. Sometimes, a small force can accomplish extraordinary feats."

Zhao Gao was stunned for a moment, seemed to have thought of something, and said hesitantly: "Are they those two Zoroastrian saints from Qin Xiang's family?"

Meng Tian didn't know the situation on the front line of Yumenguan, so he was puzzled. However, Zhao Gao had been following Yu Jia here, and he knew very well how much trouble the two pretending women had caused to the generals of the Western Region Allied Forces in front of them.

When he doesn't do anything every day, he just guards against the soldiers and goes to the saint.

Zhang Cang smiled and nodded: "Of course!"

…

At the same time, Queen Pasadei and her little daughter Anneway, arranging a full set of saintly ceremonial guards and riding holy white camels, had arrived in front of the camp of a Western Region coalition army.

The sentry riders from the Western Regions, who were so hungry that their eyes were dazzled by hunger, instead of stopping them, dismounted and prostrated around the team to show their piety.

Queen Pasadei and her little girl Anneway got off the white camels, each took roasted naan with cane sugar from their sheepskin bags, and distributed it with their own hands to the Western Sentinels who were crawling around the team.

The roasted naan was kept warm in a sheepskin bag and was still hot. After the Western Region Sentinels took it, they all devoured it and wished they could chew it with their tongues.

Baked naan with sugar is not only filling, but also a rare delicacy!

"Aren't you hungry?"

Queen Pasadei reached the end of her sentence, but found a few Western Sentinels who had not dismounted and prostrated, so she heard the words and asked.

Of course, several of the sentries from the Western Regions were hungry, and they were so greedy that they almost cried out. However, when faced with Queen Pasadei's inquiry, they shook their heads resolutely. The leader even looked disgusted and said: "We will not eat the witch's food even if we starve to death." Food~!”

As mentioned before, since Pasadai and her daughter came to the border, they have been spreading rumors to confuse people's minds, destabilizing the morale of the Western Region Allied Forces, and the effect is remarkable.

In order to deal with the mother and daughter, the countries in the Western Regions thought of using magic to defeat magic, and invited the high priests of Zoroastrianism and the messenger of the evil goddess in charge of the Zoroastrian armed forces.

However, the high priests and the so-called evil goddesses of the Zoroastrian Cult are famous for judging the situation. At first, they could abandon Pasadai and her daughter for the sake of the survival of the sect. How could they dare to go into the muddy waters of the Qin Dynasty now?

I don’t want to come at all!

Later, the King of Daxia issued a death order, so he reluctantly sent two high priests to the battlefield thousands of miles away to bid farewell to Pasadei and her daughter.

But one can imagine the result of such timid behavior. The momentum of Pasadei and her daughter is still very strong.

Of course, the two high priests of the Zoroastrian Cult still have some effect. These guys who are unwilling to get off their horses and prostrate themselves, and even speak harshly to each other, are the best examples!

"The God of Light bless you..."

Queen Pasadei nodded lightly, not annoyed, just said a blessing, and her little girl Anneway returned to her white camel. She didn't care about the entrance to the camp in front, and led the team to leave directly.

Seeing this, the wolfing sentry riders stopped to eat naan bread and presented it to them, but some people shouted: "Two saints, the believers in the camp are all hungry, can you give me some food?"

Queen Pasada turned back and said with a cold voice: "You are not my believers, let alone the believers of Ahura, the God of Light."

"Truly devout believers will not live in the same room with despicable hypocrites, nor will they allow the hypocrites to slander their saints as witches, while remaining indifferent themselves!"

As soon as these words came out, the sentry rider who shouted was immediately speechless.

The other sentry riders also looked stunned.

The team of Pasadei and her daughter gradually moved away, seemingly heading to the entrance of the next coalition camp.

When they were completely gone, the shouting sentry rider suddenly stood up, with a dark face, pulled several companions who were still on the horse off the horse, punched and kicked them.

After the fight, he cursed angrily: "Get out of my team, don't let me see you, otherwise don't blame me for not caring about friendship~!"

After saying this, he mounted his war horse and led the rest of his men back to the camp.

The few sentry riders from the Western Regions with bruised noses and swollen faces could only angrily mount their horses and follow them back.

The soldiers from the Western Regions in the camp had all seen what happened outside, but they didn't quite understand the situation.

After the sentries entered the camp, the hungry soldiers from the Western Regions immediately gathered around and asked for food from the sentries: "Where are the naan cakes? The saint gave you naan cakes... Take them out and share them, I saw them."

, such a big one...one for each of you, you must not have finished eating yet...the saint's blessing should be shared..."

"Go away~!"

"If you want something to eat, ask for it from those hypocritical believers in the back!"

"The saint originally came to give everyone food, but they called us a witch. The saint was very angry and said that we were in the same room with the false believers and were not true believers!"

The sentinel riders were not willing to share, but they just didn't have the nerve to briefly talk about what happened outside.

The soldiers all turned their heads and looked at the sentries behind them with angry eyes, as if they wanted to eat people.

Several of the sentry riders were somewhat flinching, but some of them were stubborn and said with a pinched neck: "Those two witches are Qin Gou's lackeys..."

call--

puff--

Before he finished speaking, a powerful and heavy spear whizzed through the chest of the rude sentry knight.

"Those who believe in hypocrisy and despicable dog slaves and dare to insult the saint will die~!"

The spear thrower, obviously a fanatical believer, shouted loudly.

The Western Region Allied Forces only invited two high priests to take charge. In fact, it is better not to invite them at all, because not only does it have a limited effect, but to a certain extent, it also confirms that this is a religious war, resulting in two kinds of believers in the army, each other.

The contradiction between them is very sharp.

Plop——

The sentry rider lowered his head to look at the spear on his chest in disbelief, then fell off his horse.

As if this was a signal, the companions of the sentry rider became furious, unbearable, drew their swords and urged their horses, charging towards the fanatical believer.

The fanatic believer also raised his shield and short spear, and shouted to his companions: "Kill these dog slaves who insult the saint, and let's go to the saint~!"

A riot broke out without warning...

See you in 2022, see you in 2023!

Happy New Year to everyone, make a lot of money and stay healthy!
