Chapter 16 Fusu's Scheduling

October.

Xianyang Palace is covered with golden fallen leaves.

Among the simple palaces, Fusu who sat on a high seat had a rare gloomy expression.

He held up a roll of bamboo slips on the table and said: "In July, Huaiyang County rebelled, in August Sishui County rebelled, and in September, Kuaiji County and Jiaodong County rebelled. But don't we have to wait until all the rebels in Shandong are rebelled and the rebels come down to my throne before someone will tell me what's going on outside!"

Fusu was extremely angry at this moment.

Many of the officials in these rebellious places just ran away for their own lives, or wanted to suppress such news and not report it in order to protect their official positions.

Then when the situation expanded to the complete fall of a county, the sheriff of the adjacent county reported to Xianyang.

Even until the end of September, the information received in Fusu's case file was only that there were mob riots in the local area. At that time, he didn't take it seriously, but just issued an edict for the local county guard to calm down.

As a result, at the beginning of October, they gathered together and gave him a big one.

Qilu Land and Chu Land are almost becoming sieves!

Therefore, all the ministers at this court meeting also felt the solemnity of the atmosphere, and they all sat with their heads bowed and kneeling.

Even if the methods of Fusu were gentle, even for the rebellious Zhao Gao and Li Si, they only punished the chief evildoers and did not affect too many people. Compared with the first emperor, Fusu could be called kind.

It's just that Fusu is angry now, if they say the wrong thing and provoke them, they can only bear the consequences.

Fusu took a deep breath: "Royal father wiped out Yunei and achieved hegemony. And for the foundation of Daqin, after I ascended the throne, I have been worrying all day long, afraid that I may not do well."

"That's all." He sighed, "All my lovers, please offer advice and suggestions on how to put down these traitors. Taiwei, you know the military affairs best, so you can talk about it first."

Seeing Fusu pointing to the Taiwei, the rest of the courtiers in the hall immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

During the reign of the first emperor, the post of Taiwei who was in charge of controlling military affairs was vacant for a long time, and the military power was always in the hands of the first emperor himself.

It's just that after Fusu ascended the throne, as the most trusted courtier, Meng Tian assumed this position.

After being clicked, Meng Tian thought for two seconds and replied: "According to the written letters from various places, the rebels are the most rampant in Chu, followed by Qilu. Now it is late autumn, and it is the best policy to hunt down the rebels as soon as possible. Drive the rebels to the suburbs. After a snowfall, they will be destroyed without attack."

Fu Su nodded, and continued to ask: "Then according to the Taiwei, who is the most suitable to conquer these traitors?"

This question made Meng Tian feel very difficult.

The general who wants to go to suppress the rebellion must know the military affairs and not be jealous of the emperor.

I and Wang Li, who have been getting along with Fusu since the Great Wall Legion, are very suitable, but as a captain, I need to sit in the center, and it is quite inappropriate to lead an army.

With some hesitation, he said slowly: "I recommend General Wang Li here, he can go to Pingchu to rebel."

Fu Su Zhongyi said: "That's right, it was the old General Wang who captured the Chu land for the emperor back then, leaving his reputation there, and letting General Wang go to Chu land to quell the chaos is really a good choice. Who should send the rebels in the Qilu land?"

This is exactly what Meng Tian was worried about, he thought for a long time before saying: "Perhaps Old General Xin Sheng can do it."

Xin Sheng was Wang Jian's deputy when he broke the Yan, and later stayed in Zhongshan, and he was also a fierce general of the Great Qin Dynasty.

At this time, Prime Minister Feng Quji dissuaded him: "Your Majesty, you can't, Old General Xin is old, let alone at home, conscripting him to Xianyang, and then leading the army to Qilu, I'm afraid it will take less than half a year, which is not in line with the plan that Meng Taiwei made just now."

Feng Quji was the right prime minister when he was the first emperor, and the Qin Dynasty respected the right, and his status was actually higher than that of the left prime minister Li Si.

In history, both he and his son Feng Jie were thrown into prison by Qin II, shouting that their relatives and generals should not be humiliated, and committed suicide in prison.

It's just that the changed world line now is that Fusu led the Great Wall Legion to fight back to Xianyang directly from the outside and rescued their father and son, so Feng Quji is now completely devoted to Fusu.

Although Meng Tian was refuted, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that what Feng Quji said was indeed reasonable.

So he answered, "It's because I didn't think about it properly, and Prime Minister Xie made a point."

"It's okay. The Taiwei also reminded me that we can enlist those veteran generals in advance to shine for Daqin again." Fusu's face was no longer so gloomy, and he smiled slightly, "But the generals who will go to conquer the land of Qilu have not yet been decided."

"I would like to share the worries for His Majesty, and go to quell the Qilu Rebellion." At this time, a person stood up in the back seat and said.

When Fusu saw that person, he said puzzledly: "Young Master Zhang, leading troops to fight a war is not the same as controlling taxes. The matter of marching and fighting a war is not something that can be understood overnight."

The person who stood up was Zhang Han, who was appointed by Hu Hai as one of the nine ministers shortly after he ascended the throne, but when the news came that Fusu led the Great Wall Army to the south, he quickly understood that he could only wait for death in Xianyang.

So he waited until the twelfth lunar month, claimed to be sick for a few days, took the opportunity to leave Xianyang, and went to Fusu.

Therefore, in order to commend such a model, Fusu chose to let Zhang Han continue to serve as the Shaofu, also wanting to show his generosity and kindness, and appease the group of people who had been officials under Hu Hai.

Zhang Han clasped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, everything in the world can be understood by analogy, one method can be understood, and ten thousand methods can be understood. If Your Majesty is willing to believe in me, you can let me lead the elite soldiers of the Great Qin to quell the chaos, and even lead the prisoners and slaves. I can also quell the chaos."

"Isn't this nonsense?" Meng Tian frowned.

He studied military books with his father since he was a child, and when he was a little older, he honed his skills step by step in the army, relying on his military merits to take charge of the Great Wall Corps, and now he dares to say that he is good at military affairs.

Therefore, what Zhang Han said was completely nonsense in his opinion.

But Fusu looked at Zhang Han with some interest: "Then I ask you, what strategy should I use to quell the chaos?"

Zhang Han said neither humble nor overbearing: "Go to quell the chaos, clean up the army first, compare before the battle, the rebels will panic; the second is to gather and annihilate them, chase and destroy them, the rebels are easy to collapse and disperse, if I go, the defeat will not let them have a chance to breathe again; again..."

The hall was filled with his voice discussing the plan.

Many ministers were stunned when they heard this, they didn't expect that Zhang Han, who usually kept quiet by his side, actually had strategy in his belly.Meng Tian, ​​who was standing in front of the courtiers, looked back at Zhang Han from time to time, and nodded to him to express his approval.As for Fusu, his eyes became brighter the more he listened.

"Okay! Let Zhang Shaofu take the tiger talisman and go to the land of Qilu to quell the chaos." After Zhang Han finished speaking, Fusu made a final decision.

----

When the Great Qin Dynasty was facing extinction, there were still experienced large army commanders like Meng Tian and Wang Li, and even a rare genius general like Zhang Han who turned out. They were all extremely capable generals. Qin Emperor Fusu had full trust in them and was willing to completely entrust the power of commanding the army to their hands.

It's a pity that they failed to save Daqin, but this cannot be blamed on them.After all, among the anti-Qin team, there are top ten generals in Chinese history like Xiang Yu and Han Xin, and strategic advisors like Chen Luo and Zhang Liang.

The author can only sigh one sentence here, the demise of the Great Qin Dynasty is really God's will. - "The Fall of an Empire"
