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

Chapter 30 You have to die for it, just sit back and enjoy the results!

Meng Tian suddenly pointed into the distance and exclaimed again, which brought Ying Zheng's thoughts back.

Ying Zheng looked along his fingers, and sure enough, he saw several more riders approaching, covered with dust.

"Quick, quick, send someone to lead the way. It will probably be Qin Qing's good news again!"

Meng Tian did not need to give orders and sent his personal guards out of the city again.

At the same time, the knights who arrived first to report the victory had already circled the city, took off their armor and boarded the city to resume their duties.

The first general of the camp saluted and paid homage. He took out a cowhide tube from his arms and said, "Your Majesty, here is the military situation reported by the general."

Zhao Gao stepped forward and took the cowhide tube, holding it in both hands and handing it to Ying Zheng.

"Everyone is rewarded with third-level military merit!"

Ying Zheng first rewarded the exhausted soldiers, and then he couldn't wait to open the cowhide case, take out the silk book inside and read it.

In the first half of the page, the victorious knight had just shouted that he had broken through the Royal Court of Yinshan and captured Touman Chanyu alive. It was only slightly more detailed, describing the gains during the march.

The second half of the picture shows Qin Mo's arrangements for the rest of the war. He surrounded the points to gather reinforcements and waited for work.

Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction after reading it, then handed the silk book to Meng Tian beside him: "You should also take a look."

Meng Tian had been looking forward to it for a long time, and after receiving it in his hand, he scanned it with his eyes, but his expression was mixed.

"There are many Xiongnu tribes in the hinterland of Yinshan Mountain. Once they gather their troops, I'm afraid there will be a hard battle if the army marches out of the fortress!"

Meng Tian held the silk book in his hand and couldn't help but sigh.

Ying Zheng paused for a moment, and most of his joy disappeared. He frowned and said, "If I let you fight this battle, how will you fight it?"

Meng Tian shook his head: "The soldiers have been making raids for days, and the men and horses are exhausted to the limit. I can only do this if I leave."

"I just don't know whether Prime Minister Qin can raise the morale of the army before the Xiongnu gather their troops to attack?"

Ying Zheng didn't like the feeling of being out of control. He walked back and forth a few steps and looked at the horses that were still running in the distance: "How come it's not here yet? Zhao Gao, ride on my horse and go and hurry it up personally!"

"Here."

Zhao Gao clasped his hands and accepted the order, hurried down to the city, threw off his cloak, mounted his royal horse, and galloped out of the city at lightning speed, but his riding skills were superb.

The CRRC Mansion is in charge of the emperor's chariots, horses, and carriages. He cannot be trusted unless he is a close relative and trustworthy person, and he cannot be trusted unless he is a brave charioteer and rider...

Zhao Gao came and went in less than a quarter of an hour. He hurriedly climbed to the city with a cowhide bag on his back and presented to Ying Zheng: "The horse power of the knight reporting victory has reached the limit, so he is not fast. Your Majesty, don't blame me."

"Two groups of victorious knights set out a few days apart but arrived at the same time, at the expense of horses."

"Good deeds will be rewarded with fifth-level military merit!"

Ying Zheng nodded and presented the reward, quickly opened the cowhide tube, took out the silk book and read it.

Leaning slightly, the gloom on Ying Zheng's face disappeared, his brows relaxed, and he praised: "Qin Qing has never disappointed me when he governs the army!"

However, after a while, he frowned again and ordered Zhao Gaodao: "Go and get the Thirty-two Chapters of Xunzi."

Zhao Gao was puzzled, but he did not dare to neglect. He clasped his hands and took the order and walked away quickly.

Meng Tian beside him was also confused. He stretched his head to read the silk book, trying to understand why Xunzi's works were used in a military report.

Ying Zheng smiled and explained: "After Qin Qing captured the palace of King Touman, he seized spices worth thousands of gold. That night, as a general, he personally cooked delicious food for the tired soldiers. The soldiers were inspired by this and their morale was greatly shaken.

"

Meng Tian was dumbfounded, lowered his head to look at his calloused hands, grinned brightly, and laughed at himself: "If I cook food for the soldiers, I'm afraid my morale will fall instead of rising."

Ying Zheng laughed loudly and continued: "The Xiongnu gathered their troops to attack, but Qin Qing led his troops to defeat them with concentrated thunderbolts. Even Fusu, when chasing the defeated troops, beheaded several levels and captured dozens of them."

"After the war, more than 70,000 young men, horses, cattle and sheep were captured."

"By the time the victory was reported, 30,000 soldiers had divided their forces and attacked, led by the surrendered prisoners, to wipe out the Yinshan Xiongnu tribes whose tribes were empty, and they must have captured countless Dingkou cattle and sheep!"

Meng Tian crossed his hands and bowed his hands toward the outside of the wall, saying with shame, "I'm not as good as Tian."

Ying Zheng shook his head with a guozi face: "No, you are guarding the border areas, and you have worked hard and achieved great results."

Meng Tian turned around and bowed his hands to him, thanking the emperor for his compassion.

Then, looking at the silk letter reporting victory in Ying Zheng's hand: "Since the army that left the fortress has been completely victorious, why is Your Majesty frowning?"

Ying Zheng did not hide it: "There is a secret letter of Yin Fu in the silk book, which needs to be decrypted with the help of Xunzi's book. I'm afraid something may happen again."

Leaning slightly, Zhao Gao led a team of waiters and climbed onto the tower carrying bundles of bamboo slips.

Ying Zheng personally read through the bamboo slips and compared it with the silk book to decrypt word for word. Finally, he took the copied decrypted military information and smacked his lips in confusion: "Qin Qing will take the opportunity to wipe out the Yueshi and Donghu on the way back to the army."

The existing northwest border lines of Da Qin are extremely long and far away. Except for the Xiongnu, they are the strongest among them. The Yueshi are the largest in the far west and the Donghu are the largest in the east. They are all tribes that cannot be underestimated.

Meng Tian took a breath of cold air, shook his head decisively and said: "Don't be so impatient..."

Ying Zheng raised his hand to interrupt him: "This time the army went straight to the royal court and wiped out countless Xiongnu tribes along the way. The rest were afraid that many of them would flee to two tribes."

"The two tribes knew that the Huns were unlikely to survive, so they dared to take the opportunity to invade the Xiongnu pastures. Qin Qing used secret letters to convey military information, but he was also afraid of being intercepted by the two tribes."

"If we don't destroy them, I'm afraid that before I can entrust the feudal princes to immigrate, the two tribes will become powerful!"

Meng Tian was speechless upon hearing this. Such a complicated situation was beyond the control of his border general.

Only Qin Mo, the right prime minister, can make decisions on the fly.

After a long while, he pondered and said: "The number of troops in Prime Minister Qin's hands is less than 30,000, and they are fighting continuously. The armor, thunderbolts and bullets cannot be replenished, and most of the soldiers are lazy. How can we wipe out two troops?"

Ying Zheng was silent, raising his eyes to look beyond the vast wall...

…

…

Yinshan, head to Manchester City!

At this time, Touman City had turned into a large prison, and a large number of young and strong Xiongnu men and women were imprisoned in the city.

Countless cattle, sheep and horses were looked after by Hun children and driven to graze outside the city.

The Qin cavalry who returned from all directions were still bringing back more Dingkou cattle, sheep and horses.

But Fusu, the prince of Qin, couldn't be happy when he saw all this. He followed Qin Mo and asked: "Does the general really want to wipe out the Yueshi and Donghu?"

Qin Mo walked on the city wall, nodded and replied: "We must destroy them, otherwise it will be even more troublesome when the two groups get stronger and become the new powerful enemies of the Qin Dynasty."

"Especially the Yueshi, who control the territory from the Western Region to Guanxi, foreign merchants who want to enter Guanzhong will be exploited and even plundered by them."

"If Great Qin wants to communicate with all countries outside the region, it must first destroy this beast!"

Fusu knew that Qin Mo intended to relax restrictions on merchants, but he did not expect that his plan was so far-reaching and broad.

He stayed on the spot for a moment, then caught up with Qin Mo and said, "A lot of armor has been lost, and there are not many thunderbolts left. The soldiers are also tired and lazy. How can we attack them?"

Qin Mo looked at the densely packed Hun prisoners in the city: "We don't need to take action, there will be dead soldiers to do it, just sit back and enjoy the results!"

Dear emperors, please recommend votes, monthly votes, and rewards! I... continue to code!

By the way, thank you Meng Sannian Z for another 1,500 point reward, the emperor is so majestic!
