Destiny Only Han

Chapter 104 Five Stars Gather in Dongjing
Guanzhong, Lantian County.

Lantian day warm jade and smoke.

It's a pity that it's not Nuanyu that is emitting smoke at this moment, but the burning granary.

After Liu Bang surrendered the defenders of Gaoguan, after a little rest, he immediately swung his troops northward, heading straight for Lantian County, the last barrier of Xianyang City.

This time he did not launch a strong attack, but asked the surrendered soldiers with relatives and friends who were stationed in the Lantian camp to call out to recruit and accept the rebellion, disintegrating the Qin army's defensive will.

After all, the battle has already been fought for this point, there is no need, and there is no need to do too much killing.

So, under the shouts of the mixed local accent, the blue sky camp collapsed without a hitch.

Then, in the north of Lantian County, the Qin army who came from Xianyang City for reinforcements collapsed without fighting and fled in a hurry.

It's just that the Lantian Order was unwilling to surrender, and he set himself on fire in the county granary, which made Liu Bang's plan to seize the official granary to supplement the army rations fall short.

It's just that Xianyang City, as the capital of the Qin State, is full of granaries, and it doesn't matter if there are more or less.

At this moment, Liu Bang looked at Guan Ying who was riding on the horse: "You lead all the cavalry and chariots to intercept the retreating Qin soldiers, cooperate with the infantry led by Zhou Bo, and surround them in the south of the Wei River!"

After all, if the fled Qin soldiers ran back to Xianyang City, regrouped and killed them again, it would be very troublesome.

After Guan Ying took the order to leave, Liu Bang stood there, looking at the faintly visible Qinzhangtai Palace in the distance, feeling a little dazed for a while.

The one who enters Guanzhong first is king...

When Pengcheng parted, King Huai of Chu's voice was still in his ears.

Now, I really did it!

Liu Bang restrained his mind slightly, before entering Xianyang City completely, everything needs to be cautious!

In the distance, Lu Wan walked slowly, and said mysteriously: "The food from Nanyang County has arrived..."

Liu Bang frowned slightly: "Come here, just let Zhang Liang or Cao Shen accept it. Do you want to tell me about this little thing?"

Lu Wan shook her head and said with a smile, "I'm afraid you must see that grain guard!"

"Nanyang County? Grain officer?"

Liu Bang whispered, and suddenly stared at Lu Wan with wide eyes. Judging from Lu Wan's expression at the moment, he already had some guesses in his heart, but he swallowed the words again.

He walked a few steps quickly and stood on a high place, looking in the direction where Lu Wan came, and saw a motorcade approaching slowly.

Liu Bang looked around, and suddenly froze. At the front of the motorcade, a man with half hair and beard was sitting. It was Xiao He whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

But, this is not the person Nai Gong is waiting for... Liu Bang looked at Lu Wan with a murderous look.

In an instant, Lu Wan only felt that his back was a little hairy. He hurriedly took two steps back, pointed at the end of the convoy: "Look there...look there!"

After he finished speaking, he walked away with a smirk on his face.

Skin it, very happy.

Liu Bang glared at him bitterly, then stared at the convoy transporting grain again, not letting go of any part.

Finally, at the end of the convoy, he saw a figure that made him feel proud at times, but most of the time, he hated it.

Liu Ying!

At the end of the convoy, Liu Ying, sitting in a strange carriage, was wearing a gray straight train, with a small bun fixed on top of her head with a hosta, and her shoulders drooping.

Liu Bang subconsciously wanted to hurry up to meet him, but then he thought about it.

Who is dad?

So he stood still in place, just looked at Chai Wu who was sitting next to Liu Ying, driving the carriage unhurriedly, and had killed him more than a hundred times in his heart...

In the convoy, Chai Wu pointed to the front and said, "Look, Marquis Wu An!"

Following the direction of his fingers, Liu Ying saw Liu Bang standing on a high place with piercing eyes.

So he jumped out of the carriage, staggered, opened his hands, and stumbled towards Liu Bang.

Although he didn't intend to be really sensational, but when it's time to act, he still has to act.

Seeing that Liu Ying was about to fall down, Liu Bang's heart trembled slightly and his eyes turned red. He didn't care about the etiquette of his father and son, so he strode towards Liu Ying with his legs wide open.

Meat balls and green onions... Liu Ying jumped and threw herself into Liu Bang's arms, but raised her head, rejecting Liu Bang's attempt to kiss the cheek and pierce her face with a big beard like Liu Le, a little loli.

After being intimate for a while, Liu Bang put him down, and said with a straight face: "Why did you come here? There is still a war here, don't you know?"

Liu Ying didn't speak, just took out a small jar from the backpack she was carrying behind her back, and raised her hands: "This is the chive flower sauce that my mother made newly. She knows that my father likes to use it with rice, so let me bring some. come over!"

Liu Bang's eyes were red, his nose was slightly sour, and he felt missed by others, really good!
He grinned, and complained in a disgusted tone: "Where is this thing? Why do you have to bring it from Wan County? Your mother is really a woman, hehe..."

Man, your name is duplicity... Liu Ying raised her small face and said seriously: "There are sauces that father loves everywhere in the world, but mother, there is only one!"

Liu Bang was silent for a moment, then nodded vigorously.

…………

Xianyang Palace, the main hall of the Great Dynasty.

Ziying was crowned with a sky-high crown, dressed in black clothes, sitting cross-legged on a high throne.

Today is the first day of October. According to the Zhuanxu calendar promulgated by the Qin State, it should be the day of the New Year's Grand Court Meeting.

But in front of him, the hall that can accommodate hundreds of people is empty, and the scene of the officials congratulating them in the past no longer exists.

Yaoguan fell, Lantian fell, and the last patchwork army collapsed without a fight. It was besieged by the Chu army and surrendered to the south of the Wei River!

The sky of Qin State has collapsed...

All the ministers knew that as soon as the Chu army in the south of the Wei River completed its final repairs, it would immediately launch a final general attack on Xianyang City.

However, apart from Tangtang Weishui and gurgling Jingshui, Xianyang City has no obstacles.

The imaginary picture of everyone united as one, flesh and blood for the city, is just an imagination after all...

Ziying let out a long sigh, walked out of the main hall slowly, held on to the railing, stood at the highest point in Xianyang City, it should also be the highest point in the whole world, and looked around.

The guards and officials fled one after another, and the high-ranking officials and eunuchs dragged their families with them, heading north and west to their own fiefdoms.

The street market that used to be full of people, is now quiet, if not for the occasional sound of chickens and dogs, it would be like a ghost town...

Ziying looked behind him, there were many palaces and temples, Qionglou Yuyu, and the long bridge like a rainbow. The scene that should have been radiant, but at this moment it was very dim in his eyes.

But in just over forty days, everything here will have nothing to do with him. What will be his fate, death or life, Ziying can't guess, so he doesn't think about it anymore.

"Heaven, heaven, treat me so poorly..."

If he could be given a year to clean up the court calmly, clean up the traitors, and restore people's hearts, Qin may not be in the current situation.

but……

No if!

…………

Xianyang City, Bashang (Bailuyuan).

Here you can see the Qinling Mountains in the south and the Weishui River in the north. Behind the wide wharf area, there are huge granaries. The huge granaries stand on this plateau, like giants standing in the sky, and under the soil, there are endless fertile fields.

Before dawn, a series of yells suddenly came from the camp of the Chu army.

Liu Ying opened her eyes in a jerk, and beside him, Liu Bang showed a vigor that did not match his age, jumped up, and drew his long sword from its sheath.

He looked back at Liu Ying who opened his eyes wide, and said calmly, "Don't be afraid, dad is here!"

Tonight, in fact, none of them fell asleep.

After daybreak, Prince Qin Yingsu came out in white clothes, and the Chu army formally took over Xianyang City, the power center of the Qin Empire.

Outside the tent, Chongda ran in, smiling all over his face: "Marquis Wu'an, I'm so happy!"

Liu Bang reprimanded: "What's the big deal? Noise is forbidden in the army, don't you know?"

Well, this is because the military law is strict, and the soldiers are usually suppressed ruthlessly, and it is easy to produce a battalion roar, which triggers a chain reaction of other people, causing the whole group to fall into a state of hysteria, and even kill each other.

Chongda scratched his head, recalling and said: "Zhang Situ said that the five stars gathered in Dongjing is a good omen! He also said that when the Yellow Emperor ascended the throne, there was also such a celestial phenomenon! Brothers got carried away for a while, that's why..."

"Is that what Zhang Liang said?" Liu Bang nodded slightly, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Beside him, Liu Ying stood up and walked out slowly.

The astronomical phenomenon of five-star lianzhu is rarely encountered once in a lifetime, and it will be a loss if you don't go and see it!
It's just that his collar suddenly tightened, and he got up off the ground, and was stuffed back into the bed by Liu Bang: "Go to sleep, children, don't run around!"

After he finished speaking, he deliberately stretched out a big hairy leg and pressed it on Liu Ying's body.

Father's love is like a landslide, this is...Liu Ying struggled a few times and couldn't break free, secretly annoyed in her heart, she knew she wouldn't stay here to gain Liu Bang's favorability degree!

"Take it easy, it's okay if I don't go out? Crushing me to death, be careful that my mother will fight with you!"

Liu Bang grinned silently, and snored as if he didn't hear anything, but the big hairy legs that were pressing on Liu Ying's body loosened a little.

…………

In winter and October, the sky is clear and the sun is shining brightly.

On the street leading to Xianyang Palace, there were full of energetic Chu soldiers.

Unlike the rogues who just grabbed and left, Liu Bang wanted to stay in Guanzhong for a long time, so after he surrendered the last army of Qin State in the south of the Weishui River, he sent an order to all the troops and reiterated the military regulations that no one was allowed. Anything that burns, kills, loots happens.

Those who disobey the order will be executed without mercy!

The soldiers of the Chu army were naturally ordered. After all, even if they let go of the looting, ordinary soldiers would not be able to grab anything good.

The most important thing is that they followed Liu Bang all the way from Nanyang County, knowing that their commander-in-chief is not a stingy person, so they will definitely not treat them badly.

The soldiers of the Qin army who surrendered did not have any objections. After all, they were all locals.

And those generals don't care, how much money do ordinary people have in their homes?

Good things are all in the Forbidden Garden of the Imperial Palace, in the official treasury!

When Liu Bang completes the surrender ceremony, it's not just what you want!
In the distance, under the towering Ji Que, Ziying came with a silk rope tied around his neck, and came in white clothes in a plain car.

"Sinner Ziying, please surrender to Marquis Wu'an of Chu State!"
