Daqin: The poorest prime minister, the first emperor begged me to corrupt

Chapter 21 The bright moon and the stars share together, vow to destroy the Huns!
At night, Zu Long stayed in the backyard of the remaining township yamen.

After several days of marching, it was rare to have a roof tile to cover him. Under Zhao Gao's service, Zulong took a hot bath and was about to rest.

"Father, many dead horses were captured today and many were injured. The Huotou army cooked braised horse meat and added night food to the entire army. Do you want some to eat?"

Fusu's respectful voice sounded outside the door.

Ying Zheng turned over and sat up on the couch, and said firmly, "Eat!"

The "Qin Mo style food" cooked by the Huotou army is the only fun he enjoys during the march, and he absolutely refuses to miss it.

Zhao Gao, who was sleeping next to the couch, hurried to open the door and invited Fusu into the house.

Fusu took out an iron lunch box from the armor on his chest, opened the lid, and offered the steaming braised horse meat over rice to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng was slightly stunned, frowned and said, "This box is scorching hot, and it must not be like this in the future."

This is the case for a father, even if he feels good in his heart, he opens his mouth to blame.

Fusu just agreed, and then took out the chopsticks and handed them over.

Ying Zheng buried his head in his food and said vaguely, "How is the battle going today, let me tell you in detail."

In the past when the Qin army went out to battle, there was always a censor accompanying the army to supervise the army, but this time Fusu was going to follow the army out of the fortress, so he was Qin Mo's supervisor.

"When the minister and the general arrived, the Huns cavalry were looting the town and they were gathering to escape."

"The general ordered thousands of light cavalry to intercept and shoot against cavalry."

"The light cavalry generals have strong bows and arrows, and also have the advantages of high bridge saddles and stirrups. They can shoot and kill Xiongnu bow cavalry from a distance."

"The Xiongnu bow cavalry wanted to get close to fight back, and the Qing cavalry officers and soldiers pulled with them, and frequently turned around and fired arrows, shooting and killing the close Hun cavalry."

"Finally, lure it to the front of the heavy cavalry formation, throw a thunderbolt to blow up its formation, and the heavy cavalry charge forward to break it..."

Fu Su went into every detail, and told Ying Zheng about Qin Mo's tactics of using cavalry.

Yingzheng ate and listened, and after he finished speaking, he said, "No wonder Qin Qing insisted on using cavalry to attack the Xiongnu. The fight was indeed clean and neat, and it was not in vain."

As he spoke, he looked up at the dried blood on Fusu's armor: "You didn't go to battle, why did you get all bloody?"

Fu Su said: "After the victory, the ministers and the general entered the town and collected the corpses of the people killed by the Huns. They never thought that they would encounter the Huns who were left behind."

"Perhaps the Xiongnu soldiers saw that the minister was of extraordinary status, so they hid in the house and attacked the minister. Fortunately, the general was brave enough to protect the minister and killed two Hun soldiers."

"Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll never see my father again!"

The more Fu Su talked, the more frightened he became, and his face turned pale again.

Ying Zheng also understood his feelings, and didn't blame him for being cowardly, but said: "Back then, Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang assassinated me under the guise of presenting a plot, which was extremely dangerous."

"At the right time, all the ministers were shocked and at a loss, and Qin Qing was only the last general in the court, and he was not allowed to carry a sword in the hall. If he hadn't rushed up the steps without hesitation, and broke Jing Ke's neck with his bare hands, I would have been in danger!"

Fu Su nodded again and again: "The bravery of a general is rare in ancient and modern times!"

"We, father and son, all accept the kindness of his life..."

Ying Zheng sighed again, and then asked, "Why don't you see Qin Qing coming to eat together?"

"The general led five hundred soldiers and the remaining townspeople to bury the murdered people." Fusu replied.

Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, and immediately ate a few mouthfuls of rice, got up and said, "Zhao Gao, change my clothes, go and have a look!"

……

……

Outside the town, on a barren slope.

When Ying Zheng arrived under the guard of soldiers, graves had already been dug on the barren slope.

Qin Mo and the soldiers were helping the townspeople put the corpses in the graves.

Hasty and simple, and there is no coffin, only the heads of more than a thousand Huns are sacrificed!

Ying Zheng stepped forward to speak, but seeing Qin Mo's gloomy face, burying a baby's body with his mother, he stopped abruptly.

He turned his head and told Fu Su to find a shovel and walk to Qin Mo's side to help cover the ground and bury it!
The mournful and weeping townspeople around had already noticed Ying Zheng's arrival.

At this time, seeing him disregarding his status, the majestic Great Qin Zhizun went off in person, and buried his fellow countrymen and relatives, he couldn't help but feel mixed feelings.

Few of the people in Zhao did not hate Qin. Qin and Zhao fought several times successively, and several generations of young and strong men in Zhao died at the hands of Qin.

But this time Yingzheng personally conquered the Xiongnu, and it was clear that he was here to protect them, the people of Zhao.

Today they were trapped in the township government and were attacked by the Huns. If the Qin army hadn't arrived, they would have been breached, and the consequences would have been disastrous.

Even if you don't talk about the great righteousness of expelling the barbarians, you have to admit this grace of life!

...

Later, new tombs were erected one after another, and a Jingguan built with the heads of more than a thousand Huns was also built.

Yingzheng took the lead in the worship: "I eat the people's taxes and taxes, but I can't protect the people well, so that the people are killed by the barbarians outside the Great Wall, and I am ashamed."

"Rest in peace for the time being, today's blood debt, I will make the barbarians outside the Great Wall repay ten thousand times."

"The bright moon and the stars shine together, and I swear to destroy the Xiongnu and Huns!"

choke-

Ying Zheng drew out his sword and cut his palm, smearing blood on his face, like a savage.

The surviving Zhao Min and the soldiers present all followed suit.

Even Fusu, who is usually humble and gentle, has a ferocious air on his body.

It was a kind of true nature of the Chinese people that belonged exclusively to the pre-Qin era, and it was also something that Qin Mo, a later generation, did not possess.

It was precisely with this ferocity that the people of Huaxia developed a corner of the Zhou Dynasty into the Spring and Autumn Kingdoms, occupying all the fertile land inside and outside!
...

After completing the worship, Ying Zheng did not go back to rest, but followed Qin Mo to inspect the barracks outside the town.

It wasn't until late at night, when Qin Mo was going to stay in Shuidan Township to guard the barracks, that Ying Zheng decided to go back to the town to rest.

But when they parted, Ying Zheng seemed to hesitate to speak: "Qin Qing..."

Zu Long has always been arrogant and domineering, and he never hides his words, so he hesitated, which made Qin Mo feel strange.

"Your Majesty has something to say, but it's okay to say it."

Ying Zheng pondered for a while, and suddenly looked directly into Qin Mo's eyes.

"I look at Qin Qing, her heart is free and easy, and she doesn't care much about the world's prosperity, fame and fortune. Even the power that others can't ask for, she doesn't seem to be very enthusiastic about it."

"You are free and easy, almost like a god, overlooking the world."

"However, there seems to be great compassion and kindness in Qing's heart. Throughout the past and present, I have never heard of people who love and respect the common people in Guizhou as much as Qing."

"Why? Why are you so contradictory?"

This was Ying Zheng's doubts about Qin Mo all along.

Especially recently, the more he understood Qin Mo's character and habits, the more serious his doubts were, and it troubled him all the time.

If he doesn't ask again, he will drive himself crazy!

Qin Mo was taken aback by the question. Seeing that Ying Zheng was staring at him relentlessly, and he was about to break the casserole and ask the end, he hesitated and said, "Actually..."

Ying Zheng asked eagerly, "Actually what?"

Qin Mo: "Actually, human nature is inherently contradictory. Why do you think so much?"

Ying Zheng wanted to vomit blood: "..."

But if you think about it carefully, it seems that this is the reason, so why bother thinking about the contradiction!
