Chapter 67 Was Er sent by Fusu to trick me?

"Xia, the 33rd year of the First Emperor."

"Young son Hu Hai led an army of five thousand guards to kill the evil dragon at Langyata. Langyata is several miles square and a hundred feet high. There is a mountain road up and down. Young son Hu Hai lost his way halfway."

Hu Hai had read books to some extent, and he could already think of how the historians would record this matter.

He also knows that if this matter is recorded in the history books, he may become a laughing stock for all generations!

Kill the dragon!
What a majestic thing!

When I came here, the CRRC government order had earnestly taught that the matter of beheading Jiao must not be ignored.Although the First Emperor wanted to abolish the young master and support Su, everything depends on how well the evil dragon kills him.

Jiao is a strange beast.Strange beasts are all conceived by destiny.

If Hu Hai can kill him smoothly, it will naturally prove that Hu Hai has a destiny!
If Hu Hai loses——the evil dragon is entrenched on the top of Langya Terrace, if you don’t kill him, you won’t be able to sacrifice to the heavens, and if you can’t sacrifice to the heavens, you won’t be able to abolish Young Master Fusu!

Because of this, Hu Hai was also extremely caring during this trip, put away his usual perverse nature, and asked Li Chao about everything in advance.

Never expected that Li Chao could take him astray on Langya Terrace!
Hu Hai didn't even know how he was lost, because there was only one way to the top of Langya Terrace.

Although there is a difference between the royal road and the side road, the army had to detour the mountain road, but the road to the top is still this one.

Shuzi!
He looked at Li Chao fiercely.

Thanks to myself, I wanted to compare him to Lord Wu An!

And at this moment, let alone Wu Anjun.

No matter how he looked at it, Hu Hai felt that this person was a complete idiot!

Even the posture of swallowing the realgar is utterly stupid!

Isn't Ermo sent by Fusu to trick me?
Li Chao couldn't care about what Hu Hai was thinking at this time.

The killing of the dragon at Langyatai this time is Li's hope and only chance to return to the Qin Dynasty!

The competition in the Great Qin Dynasty is extremely fierce, and the positions of officials change extremely quickly.

More than ten years ago, when Li Chao's father, Li Xin, was still alive, he was worshiped as a general, and he was also one of the nine ministers of the Great Qin Dynasty at that time.However, once the army was defeated and died in depression, Li Chao, not to mention inheriting the position of Li Xin Jiuqing, could not even squeeze into the court, and only became a small cavalry captain.

If there is another accident in Langya's beheading of Jiao, he may not be able to keep himself as the captain of the cavalry. In this case, Li Shi will be lost to everyone!

It's just that everyone is oblivious. Since the Zhou Dynasty, the family struggle among the great nobles has been fierce, but the monarch has turned a blind eye to this, and even indulged in provocations, viewing it as an effective means to maintain the monarchy.

However, the first emperor was cold by nature, and wanted to take over the authority of the world. In his heart, he probably wished that all the nobles he disliked would die, let alone stop the family struggle.

The Li family also has enemies. If they lose even this last bit of military power, I am afraid that the entire Li family will die without a place to bury them!

He swallowed all the realgar in the bamboo tube in one gulp, took off the water bag around his waist, took a big gulp of water, and washed the realgar powder down his stomach.

These are high-quality realgar powder, just after swallowing, Li Chao felt a thunderous sound in his stomach and colic, as if a blunt knife was cutting flesh in his stomach, which made him break out in a cold sweat.

However, in such pain, Li Chao showed joy on his face.

In the past, the First Emperor asked Wang Jian how many troops would be needed to destroy Chu, and Wang Jian said, 60 troops.

The first emperor was displeased, and asked Li Xin again, and Li Xin said, 20 yuan is available.

The First Emperor was overjoyed and immediately sent Li Xin to lead an army of 20, with Meng Wu, Meng Tian's father, as his deputy to attack Chu.

After arriving in Chu, Li Xin ordered Meng Wu to lead troops to attack the sleeping hills, while he himself broke the peace.All the way to Xiangyang, Xiang Yan, the Chu general with 40 troops, dared not face him directly.

At this time, Lord Changping suddenly rebelled against Qin in Yingchen. Li Xin was instantly attacked by the enemy, and his food and grass were cut off, so he had to return to the army to attack Lord Changping.And Xiang Yan took advantage of the unstable morale of the Qin army, and raided the rear army of Li Xin's army, defeated the Qin army, and beheaded seven Qin army captains!
At that time, Li Xin knew that the reason why Wang Jian said that he needed a large army of 60 was not that the front was unfavorable, but that he needed a large army to garrison along the way to prevent the restless road ahead!
This side is a veteran general, when Li Xin died in depression, his last words to Li Chao were only four words.

Be prepared!

Since then, Li Chao has engraved the four words of being prepared into his bones!

For example, Jiao has a slight poison, although I don't know if it can be spread in the cloud when walking in the cloud, and this slight poison seems to be poisonous, Li Chao still prepared realgar for the whole army.

Realgar is a good detoxification medicine, and it is even the only reliable detoxification medicine in Da Qin. It's just a poison, of course!
Taking a deep breath, Li Chao suppressed the turmoil in his heart, and he glanced behind him again.

The fog was so dense that he could barely see a foot in front of him clearly, and it even tended to become thicker. Li Chao was secretly startled.

As expected of a Jiao, even such a young one has such amazing supernatural powers!
However, it doesn't stop there!

He let out a fierce roar: "Pass my order, the whole army will take the medicine powder, and the soldiers will turn around on the spot, and the rear will be the front!"

"The Commander-in-Chief ordered the entire army to take medicinal powder!"

"The chariot turned around!"

The voices of the soldiers were heard one after another. Li Chao felt relieved when he heard this familiar voice.

Fog can block sight, but it cannot block sound.

And even though I don't know why this dragon's poison is so miraculous, it can make me travel so many distances inexplicably without knowing it. Even if I count the wheels round and round, I will make mistakes, but there are some things that cannot be changed.

For example, where the royal way is!
No matter how weird the poison is and how thick the mist is, can it still destroy the royal path?
Li Chao remembered very clearly that the crooked neck tree was at the beginning of the mountain road on the second floor.

The army came up from the side passage on the first floor. The side passage was on the side of the royal road, only a few dozen feet away from the royal road.

It's just that the three-layer earth platform is shrinking inward layer by layer, and it is also affected by collapse and vegetation growth. Of course, the most important thing is the heavy fog.

Otherwise, Li Chao can directly see where the imperial way is at this time!
At this moment, he couldn't care about anything else, and he had already forgotten about expressing respect to the First Emperor.

The most urgent task is to quickly go to the top of Langya Terrace and seal off the water pool!

Yes!

Li Xin suddenly raised his hand and knocked on his iron helmet again, with an annoyed look on his face.

He was still sneering at first, although this dragon is quite miraculous, but his skills stop there, he actually wanted to rely on the thick fog to cover the sight of the army to escape.

This is hiding one's ears and stealing the bell!

However, at this moment, he suddenly thought that the reason why the evil flood dragon covered Langya Terrace with clouds was probably not because he wanted to cover the road so that he could not climb to the top of the stage.

But to take the opportunity to escape!

Yes, it must be so!
"Where is the chariot? Quickly turn the chariot!" He roared suddenly, and began to guide the horse first.The soldiers behind the chariot also ran over upon hearing the sound, and started turning the wheels in a hurry.

Countless orders came from behind, and there were figures in the mist, the sound of armor colliding, and the neighing of war horses.There was also a sergeant who didn't know whether he was accidentally injured by a chariot or kicked away by a horse, so he made a muffled sound.

There was even the sound of "cracking" wood breaking, and the roar of military marquises calling for soldiers to carry their carts.

Although he couldn't see it, he could tell just by hearing the sound that the army was in a hurry at this time.

The chariot was extremely heavy, and in the Qin Dynasty, the wheels of the chariot were directly mounted on the axle, and the body of the chariot was also directly fixed on the axle.

Unlike later generations, the axles in Qin Shi did not rotate, but were all turned by wheels.

In addition, there is no steering device at this time. When the military vehicle turns, it relies solely on hard dragging and moving.

This caused the vehicle body to be extremely sluggish when moving, and it was even more likely to be damaged when turning. When turning around, two wheels fell off directly, and the entire military vehicle collapsed directly, pressing the soldiers under the vehicle body.

Therefore, it is a big taboo for a military vehicle to turn around in place!

In addition, this time the Weiwei army came on stage, but in the formation of Sanche.Sanche means three military chariots paralleling each other. Although the mountain road is wide enough to accommodate six chariots paralleling, it is still extremely cramped for three chariots to turn around at the same time.

At this time, Li Chao couldn't care less, he once again sternly ordered: "Zuo Che first turn around and follow my car, Yu Che will go slowly!"

Qin Shi respected the right, ordered men to walk on the right, women to the left, and cars in the middle.

However, the army is all men, and they are used to staying to the right on weekdays.

And because Langya Terrace has been in disrepair for a long time, most of the earthen platforms have collapsed, and there are many mountains and rocks on the left side of the road, so the Weiwei army also leaned to the right on the mountain road.

At this time, with the help of the open space on the left, Zuo Che could turn around. As for the middle car and right Che, Li Chao no longer planned to wait.

At this time, his chariot had already completed the U-turn with the efforts of the soldiers, and fortunately, the wheels did not fall off.

This is also because Hu Hai is the main general and Touche only has this chariot, so he has much more room for maneuver.

Just after completing the U-turn, Li Chao yelled again: "Follow my car!"

As he spoke, he shook the reins violently, and the military vehicle began to drive towards the rear of the team.

The sound of wheels rumbled, and military vehicles drove out of the fog one after another, following Li Chao's lead vehicle.Of course, there are also cases where the fog blocks the view, causing two cars to collide directly with each other, causing people to flip over.

But these are not big things!
Li Chao looked at Daoyou with bright eyes. If it weren't for the fact that the chariot itself was also a powerful weapon to stop the evil dragon, he would have even wanted to give up all the chariots at this time!
There is no other, because the speed of the military chariot is too slow, and to shoot Jiao, all you need is a bed and crossbow!
As he walked forward, he continued to silently calculate the distance in his heart.

Li Chao brought a total of forty military chariots to Langyatai this time, divided into three parts, including the lead chariot he himself was the driver of, a total of fourteen parts, that is, fourteen rows.

And the distance between each che is eight feet, and the whole army has a total of more than four hundred feet.

From the crooked neck tree to the royal road, it is about eighty feet. If Li Chao travels very carefully, he will definitely be able to see the royal road!

While counting carefully, he continued to move forward. The distance was only eighty feet. Even if the chariot moved forward slowly, it would only take an instant.

Li Chao jumped off the military vehicle directly, ran a few steps, and couldn't wait to look to the right, that is, to the left of the road.

The next moment, he froze in place suddenly, his whole body couldn't help but began to tremble.

Originally, according to the calculation, he should have reached the center of the imperial road at this time, and the width of the imperial road is ten feet, even if there is a slight error, it will not be a big problem.

However, at this moment, he did not see the shadow of Yu Dao.

What catches the eye is still the crooked-necked tree!
"This fog is very strange."

When Li Chao was doubting his life on the Langyatai Mountain Road, a tranquil voice sounded on Xiaozhu Mountain next to Langyatai.

It was Zhao Gao who spoke. He was holding a goose feather fan and sitting on a mat on the top of the mountain. His crown was fluttering in the sea breeze and he looked quite graceful.

Zhao Gao was not alone, there was a straw mat beside him, and there was also a person sitting on the straw mat, with a square face and a beautiful beard, it was Li Si.

The place where Langyatai is located is Langya Mountain, and Langya Mountain is a double mountain.Among them, the one as broad as the platform is Langyatai, and the one standing out from the northwest side is Xiaozhu Mountain. Looking at Langyatai from the flat ground.

Xiaozhu Mountain is as high as Langya Terrace, and the top of Langya Terrace can be seen from the top of Xiaozhu Mountain, but the top of the altar built by King Goujian of Yue cannot be seen.

This place guards the northwest of Langyatai. There are Langyashan garrison and beacons on the mountain. It was originally a place for garrison.

This time when Hu Hai climbed to Langyatai to slay evil spirits, Zhao Gao would naturally accompany him.He is Hu Hai's partial teacher, responsible for keeping watch for Hu Hai, and at the same time preventing the evil spirits from escaping from the northwest side.

As for Li Si, he was responsible for planning the movements of the First Emperor. Before the First Emperor came to Langya, he had to build palaces and lay stone roads in advance.

And now that the First Emperor is preparing to climb Langyata to worship heaven, he naturally has to dispatch civilian soldiers to repair Langyata in advance.

At present, the people are ready. He has captured all the Langya people who worshiped the fairy dragons under the Langya Terrace. He is going to let these people repair the Langya Terrace as a punishment.

The only thing that is lacking is that Hu Hai can kill evil spirits.

Different from Zhao Gao's calmness, Li Si was slightly uneasy and frequently looked in the direction of Langyatai.

Although he is greedy for money, he is a famous official of a generation and a great nobleman. He is known as a sage all over the world, so he naturally has the ethics of a scholar-bureaucrat.

Although there is evidence in the hands of Hu Hai and Zhao Gao, and also because of the different schools of thought, if Fusu comes to power, he, a Tingwei, may have to live in the Tingwei prison he built himself.But as a Jiuqing Tingwei, he knew that Fusu was more suitable for Qin II!

If Fusu came to power, even if he wanted to get the whole body, he would not be able to, but his family could still be preserved.

Because Fusu is kind!

And if Hu Hai becomes the second emperor of Qin, he and his whole family may be in danger of eternal disaster!

Because the First Emperor only killed cruelly, but Hu Hai was cruel!

"Is Ting Weisi worried about the young son killing the evil spirits?" A thin voice sounded, waking Li Si from his trance.

He turned his head subconsciously, and it was Zhao Gao who spoke.

Zhao Gao had a calm smile on his face at this time, but there seemed to be a strange light shining in his eyes.

Li Si sighed secretly in his heart.

Fusu became the second emperor of Qin, and he himself will be put into the prison of Tingwei.This is not because Fusu has old grudges with him, but because Fusu learns Confucianism. He is the second emperor of Qin Dynasty, and Confucianism in the court will flourish.He himself is a legalist, and he must be criticized by Confucians, but Fusu is not like the first emperor. Since he established himself as benevolent, he naturally would not stop it with killing.

In this way, protecting his family is already his limit.

And if Hu Hai is the second emperor of Qin, his family may be doomed, but there may be a way out.Because of Hu Hai's cruelty, if he didn't like it, 1 people would speak up, and he would cut off these 1 people together.

The most important thing is that if he turns against him at this time, there is no need to wait for Fusu or Huhai to become the second emperor, the first emperor can make himself forever!
"This is the youngest son's first time leading the army, so I am concerned." He gathered his mind, cupped his hands and opened his mouth.

A smile flashed across Zhao Gao's face, and his eyes unnoticedly swept over Li Si's hand saluting to him.

Li Si is a Tingwei, the ninth minister of the Qin Dynasty.Zhao Gao was only the official of Zhongche Mansion. Although the First Emperor wanted him to succeed his father as Lang Zhongling, at least so far, he had not been promoted.

Moreover, even after being promoted, his status is still below Li Si's.Because Li Si is not just Jiuqing, he is also Sangong.

The three princes are the prime minister, the Taiwei, and the imperial censor.The three ministers and the nine ministers did not hold the same position originally. However, the First Emperor took over the authority of the world and divided the post of prime minister into two. The first one was Wang Guan, Weilin.These two men died early, and the First Emperor ordered Li Si to take their place.

And Li Si was the prime minister of the left, and as for the prime minister of the right, the first emperor seemed to have forgotten the appointment.

Qin Shi respected the right, and since Li Si was the Prime Minister of the Left, according to later generations, he was the Deputy Prime Minister.However, the prime minister was vacant, and he was a full-time deputy prime minister, but his rank was not enough for a third man.

The most outrageous thing is that his official position is Tingwei Jiuqing, and Prime Minister Zuo can only be considered a part-time official.And the fictitious right prime minister is the legitimate prime minister. Not only did he become the prime minister, he also became the Taiwei and the imperial censor.

If Li Si had studied the science of later generations, he would have said that this is Schrödinger's prime minister.Let's say he doesn't exist, it's in the official documents.To say that it exists, no one has ever seen it.

In any case, Daqin's living prince at this time is only Li Si, although he is only half a prince, and he is concurrently serving.He is the head of the court!

However, even Sangong must bow to Zhao Gao!
The man should be so!
Zhao Gao was slightly intoxicated, but at the next moment, a haze flashed across his eyes.

He was born in the Hidden Palace, he is no longer a man!

It's not just him, after his mother suffered inhuman humiliation, because her body was also mutilated, she couldn't even enter Zhao's cemetery, she had to be buried in the wild!

Although great hatred welled up in his heart, Zhao Gao didn't express it in the slightest.

He raised his sleeves gracefully: "Please drink!"

Tea was still called "tea" in the Qin Dynasty, and it was still considered poison at this time, so the chats between scholar-bureaucrats were not drinking tea, but drinking.

With a "ding" sound, a small gong was struck. The two of them raised the small bronze gong together, covered it with their sleeves, raised their hands to signal, and then drank it all.

Putting down the wine prince, Zhao Gao shook his goose feather fan slightly without even looking in the direction of Langyatai, and said softly: "Wei Ting is overly worried."

"Although the youngest son is leading the army for the first time, his deputy is Li Chao, a family of famous generals!"

"Li Chao?" Li Si looked puzzled, "Is he the son of Da Changxin?"

Da Changxin is Li Xin, and it is rumored that he was granted the title of Marquis of Longxi.However, in fact, the first emperor abolished the enfeoffment, and the last two ranks of the twentieth rank, Guanneihou and Chehou are in name only.

Even Meng Tian never became a marquis because he entered the court too late. How could Li Xin, a general who defeated the army, be granted the title of a marquis?

When he had the highest title, he was No. 18 Dashuchang, so he was called Dachangxin.

"It's this person." Zhao Gao nodded.

Li Si looked surprised. Although he was also a Li family, he was a Li family from Chu, while Li Xin was a Li family from Longxi. There was no relationship between the two.

What surprised him was that Zhao Gao only came out of the hidden palace last winter, and within a few months, not only was he able to establish his own influence in the court, but he was also able to grasp his own handles, and even had time to search for famous generals!

Although Zhao Gao is the order of the CRRC government, it is convenient for him to intervene in the Weiwei Army to prepare for the first emperor's trip.However, within a few months, they were able to find out where Li Chao was, and the action was too fast.

After all, it had been six years since Li Xin passed away, and even Li Si hadn't paid attention to what official positions his descendants were holding.

"How did the CRRC government pay attention to this person?" He asked with bright eyes.

He had a feeling at this time that Zhao Gao's plan seemed to be huge!

"Without it, in the first month, the first emperor ordered me to prepare for a patrol, and when I went to the Weiwei army, I found that the Weiwei army seemed to be majestic, so I can take time off!"

Speaking of this matter, Zhao Gao also felt quite proud: "I am very surprised. The method of training the Weiwei army was created by Bai Qi, Lord Wu'an, who observed Wei soldiers. How could the Jin people have such a tendency to take advantage of their leisure time?"

"Later I asked Wei Wei Jie, and Jie said that this was Li Chao's contribution."

"Afterwards, I went to the Weiwei Army several times to observe carefully, and found that Li Chao acted like a famous general, as immovable as a mountain, and everything has its own rules..."

There was a commotion coming from the direction of Langya Terrace, and Li Si couldn't help looking at Langya Terrace.But Zhao Gao still didn't look sideways, with a calm expression on his face: "Ting Wei has no worries, Li Chao is also prepared for the landslide. This may be that the evil spirit has been captured, and the soldiers praise their merits!"

"Perhaps, something happened..." Li Si frowned, looked in the direction of Langya Terrace, and replied slightly absent-mindedly.

Due to the fog blocking him, he couldn't see clearly what was going on, but he just instinctively felt that something was wrong.

"How could there be an accident?" Zhao Gao's brows moved slightly, his eyes slightly cold.

He spent many years in the hidden palace, and the hidden palace is a place where people eat people, so there must be no weakness in the slightest.

Therefore, although Zhao Gao is friendly on the outside, he can't tolerate any disobedience in his heart.

He continued speaking in a calm voice: "Li Chao is quite talented as a famous general, but although the demon on the stage is a real dragon, he is still young!"

"Jiao has the ability to move clouds and cover the entire Langya Terrace with fog, and our army has Sinan!"

"And I'm watching from the sidelines. As long as this dragon can't escape, what accident will happen?"

Before he finished speaking, a sergeant suddenly rushed over and knelt on one knee in front of the table.

"Report to Zhongche Mansion Order." His face was surprised, and his voice was also a little erratic. Obviously, what happened on Langya Terrace made him unable to understand. "The Marquis of the Army at the foot of the mountain sent someone to report. He heard the commotion in the mountain path from below the stage..."

Swallowing a mouthful of spittle, he continued: "The riding captain lost his way on the mountain road, order to return!"

There was a crisp sound of "clang", but Zhao Gao's body suddenly shook, knocking over the table on the mat. The wine cup and the copper basin for warming the wine rolled down, and the hot water even splashed on Li Si's face.

But Li Si was caught off guard. He jumped up with a "Ah" sound and hurriedly started to undress.

Zhao Gao also scalded his feet with the hot water, but at this time he seemed to be unaware and looked at the soldiers who reported the news with dull eyes.

"What did you just say?" He suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.

The soldier who reported the letter also knew that what he said was extremely absurd, but he acted according to the order. Hearing this, he swallowed his saliva again, and repeated repeatedly: "Riding the captain lost his way on the mountain road, and then returned to the carriage!"

There was a muffled "thud" sound, but it was Zhao Gao who kicked the copper basin away with his bare feet. At this time, the graceful look on his face disappeared, and the goose feather fan in his hand seemed to turn into a big axe, and with one axe, the soldier who reported the message was killed. Split in half.

His eyes were like poisonous snakes, staring at the soldier who reported the news: "There is only one way to the stage of Langyatai, how can the captain get lost?"

"Er, but do you think I'm really deceiving?"
