Daqin: You were asked to build the Great Wall and you destroyed the Huns?

Chapter 239 The sun never sets on Qin

Yunzhong County.

Ying Xuan looked at the dark clouds in the western sky.

Not a word.

In two days, a heavy snowfall will come.

By then, the land of Henan will turn into white.

That will be the best cover for the White Cavalry in Silver Armor!

Ying Xuan looked behind him at the silver-armored cavalry who was about to move.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Huns, are you ready to bear the blow of dimensionality reduction?

……

At this moment, inside Jiuyuan City.

Teams of Hun soldiers have occupied all parts of the city.

The only area left with a dirty wooden shed area was one that no one wanted to go to.

It was originally a place where [-] old Zhao slaves lived.

The dirty things in the open ditches everywhere exuded an unpleasant stench.

The Xiongnu soldiers were not to mention stationed close to each other.

It's disgusting to get even remotely close to it.

When the forwards searched, they just covered their noses and waved their swords to chop around a few times.

After seeing that no one was there, he took the people away.

At this moment, under these large wooden sheds.

In the expanded cellars.

Jiawen counted the food prepared by the eldest son for them.

"Sir, you are really prescient."

"I never expected that the cellar dug out for escape over the years could be of such use."

Jiawenhe turned around and looked at everyone under the light of the oil lamp.

Wearing armor and holding long swords, they carried light crossbows on their backs, and had a bag of oil shale at their feet. They were almost armed to the teeth.

There is no longer the emaciated shadow of the old Zhao slave three days ago.

They are now called the Daqin Cavalry Reserve.

At least that's what the eldest son calls them.

"I never thought that the act of escaping would become a weapon for our counterattack."

"It's just a coincidence!"

"Besides, the tunnel we dug was too crowded and narrow. We originally wanted to hide for a short time and then escape out of the city along the tunnel."

"Now this expansion has become an excellent place to hide troops."

After speaking, he distributed the food to everyone again.

Everyone was stunned.

Didn’t you just eat it a few hours ago? Why do you want to eat it again?Why don't you be more economical?

After all, we still don’t know when we can go out to attack and kill the Xiongnu rulers.

Jiawenhe said helplessly.

"Young Master said it, although the strength he showed when we demonstrated it to him was indeed not small."

"But the foundation is too weak. Once you fight with the enemy, a few more attacks will expose the flaw of insufficient endurance."

"So in the two days before the heavy snow comes, you must eat small and frequent meals to regain your strength."

Jiawenhe moved the oil lamp in his hand to the entrance of a nearly full cellar passage behind him.

Inside are bags of roasted millet.

"All of this must be eaten, otherwise it will be a waste."

"I just calculated that soldiers need to eat at least five meals a day."

"Fortunately, there is a shallow well in the cellar on the southernmost side, otherwise I would have choked to death!"

The soldiers around him were stunned.

"Two days? With so much food, we thought it would take ten days and a half to hide it?"

Some soldiers even whispered.

"Feeding you so full? Isn't it a deprivation meal?"

Jiawenhe was also very helpless.

He also couldn't understand why the soldiers under the eldest son lived like this.

He even had the nerve to ask Er Niu about it.

But Erniu told him without caring.

"That's normal! I originally wanted to give you more meat."

"But Young Master said, if you eat too much meat at this time when you have been hungry all year round, you will not only lose weight but also suffer from diarrhea."

Seeing the pity expression on Er Niu's face, Jiawen and Jia Wen were stunned at that time.

"Is there no shortage of food in Da Qin?"

Erniu was stunned for a moment by these words. He thought about the hundreds of thousands of sheep waiting in line to be roasted.

After thinking about the food he had snatched from the Qiang people, he nodded solemnly to Jiawenhe.

Then to prove it, he grabbed a passing soldier.

When he opened his clothes, there was a large piece of cooked lamb chop wrapped in cloth.

With this posture, Jiawenhe even thought that this kid would be fine even if he was slashed in the chest with a sword.

But when Er Niu casually took it and handed it to Jiawenhe, the soldier was not annoyed at all.

He even ran away very happily, still mumbling.

"It's great, I don't have to eat mutton anymore."

He trotted all the way to the baggage officer responsible for distributing food and said excitedly.

"My share was robbed by General Erniu. Why don't you give me two more mouthfuls of dry food?"

But he saw the baggage officer returning a gentle smile, and then ruthlessly took out half of the roasted lamb leg and stuffed it into his arms.

Seeing the soldiers turn around, they looked like they wanted to exchange them for food.

The baggage officer kicked him away hard.

"Humph!"

"What's your identity! You still want to eat solid food!"

"Young master, I have limited your daily dry food!"

Then the baggage officer also tore a piece of mutton from his arms with a painful expression.

"There is too little dry food. After distributing it to the reserve cavalry, it is already less than a hundred stones. It is better to keep it for the soldiers to make soup to remove the greasy food."

After saying that, he closed his eyes and stuffed it into his mouth.

"I will never seek personal gain!"

The soldiers were very disappointed when they saw the baggage officer leading by example.

I could only leave pitifully with the mutton leg in my arms.

At this time, a shout came from a distance.

"Hey! There are wild onions here!"

Suddenly, the entire camp was almost boiling.

"Onion? Where? Where? Where?"

"Don't fight with me. Let me take a bite. If you don't take another bite, I will die of boredom!"

This scene shocked Jiawenhe deeply.

He could swear that he had never seen military life like this in his life.

Such a military lieutenant.

Even thinking about it now, Jiawen and Du still couldn't help but shudder.

"Stop talking so much."

“Do you know how precious these millets are?”

"Even the eldest son is not allowed to eat more!"

As soon as these words came out, all the soldiers burst into tears.

Sure enough, the eldest son wanted to let them gain weight and give them more chances to survive in the upcoming battle.

It was actually the general who gave them the food first.

It's hard not to be moved by such an act.

Especially those of them who have not had a full meal for several years.

Jiawenhe watched everyone take the food in silence.

One by one, the soldiers gritted their teeth and their hearts were moved, and they opened their mouths to say something.

Actually he didn't mean that.

But he swallowed it in the end.

That’s it, no matter what.

In this era of easy food.

It is already a great favor to be treated like this by following the eldest son.

Besides, their lives were originally saved by the eldest son.

Jiawenhe exhaled and looked up at the entrance covered by branches.

"I just hope that the heavy snowfall in two days will be as accurate as the eldest son predicted!"

At this time, the soldier beside him muttered while eating millet.

"I have long heard that the eldest son of Great Qin is kind and kind."

"I always thought it was fake."

"I realized today that my heart is too dark to understand the vast and broad-minded benevolence of the eldest son.

"Not only does he not care about us as humble slaves, he also keeps food close to us!"

"With such a king, no wonder the Qin Dynasty can dominate the world!"

The other soldiers were also choked with sobs.

"I heard that the officers and soldiers of the Great Qin Dynasty said that the reason for the northern attack on the Xiongnu was that they united with the Qiang people to massacre the people of the three cities in Yunzhong County."

"The eldest son's heart is bleeding, so he will launch a massive attack in winter at any cost."

"With such a young master who loves the people like a son, how can the Qin Dynasty not be glorious in the future?"

"After this time, if we can survive, we will follow him to fight in all directions, to create a stable life for the people of the world, and to build a territory that will never be bullied by foreigners again!"

Jiawenhe blinked at this sudden scene.

After thinking about it for a moment, he still said it.

"Such a young master, we should follow him to the death."

This statement was highly recognized by all the soldiers.

They pass the grain to other cellars.

At the same time, he passed on the story of the eldest son giving up all his food rations to them.

...Yunzhong County, Ying Xuan clenched his teeth.

"Hiccup!" He let out a long burp that smelled like mutton.

No, no, I've been eating too greasy these days.

He turned around and was thinking about how to get some vegetables to eat.

The system in his mind suddenly rang.

"drop."

Ying Xuan was stunned and opened it to take a look.

"Three old Zhao generals are loyal..."

Ying Xuan was stunned with his mouth open.

Can hiccups still win the loyalty of soldiers?

He tried his luck with his belly, opened his mouth and let out a loud burp.

"Hi~."

"Drip, drip."

"Six old Zhao generals are loyal..."

"Ten old Zhao generals pledged their allegiance..."

Ying Xuan's mouth instantly changed into an O shape.

I glanced around.

"Cough cough."

Ying Xuan coughed twice.

Act like you need to go to the bathroom.

Then he got into his own separate tent.

Outside the camp, Zhang Liang and others were discussing how to deal with the next Xiongnu attack.

only heard.

"Hiccup~hic~hic~."

……

Everyone looked at Wang Cheng.

Look, look, you, look at what you have done to the young master.

Wang Cheng also looked ashamed.

But green vegetables are very hard to find this season.

"It's because I'm so incompetent that I can't even find vegetables, so I can only let the young master eat meat."

After saying the words, everyone nodded deeply, but did not notice.

The governor and lieutenant of Yunzhong County were twitching next to them.

The two of them were completely stunned these days.

Originally, I was thinking of having an additional [-] troops and hundreds of thousands of horses.

I don’t know how much more grain and grass will be needed from Yunzhong County.

It's good now, not only that there is no need for recruitment.

The eldest son also ordered them to exchange their flocks for dry food with the common people.

Good guy.

The two of them looked at the endless flock of sheep and were puzzled.

Where did the young master get so many sheep?

It even required Wang Cheng to bring thousands of people to drive horses.

Behind them, [-] Yunzhong soldiers were devouring their food.

Moved to tears.

When did they ever have such a good life?

I glanced at the white flowers on the hillside behind me.

Can't finish it, can't finish it at all.

At this moment, all the soldiers wanted to do was stay with the eldest son forever.

But inside the camp, Ying Xuan was just "di~~di".

At this point it’s “Didi, di, di, di, di!”

"Ten Yun Zhong generals pledge their allegiance to..."

"Hundreds of Yunzhong generals are loyal to..."

Ying Xuan was so happy that he could hardly close his mouth.

I tried my best to squeeze my stomach and burp.

Until I really can’t type anymore.

He just found out.

The voice of allegiance still rings out.

Slightly stunned.

"It turns out it's not a system BUG!"

As if under suspicion, the system gave a decisive prompt.

"Hey, do you agree in batches? (Ten people consume one gold!)"

Another price increase!
Ying Xuan narrowed his eyes angrily.

However, after some hesitation, he ordered Wang Cheng to bring several thousand gold and agreed.

The loyalty this time actually reached tens of thousands.

Among the old Zhao people, almost [-] were loyal and more than [-] were loyal.

Yunzhong soldiers also loyal to more than 1 people.

This time it cost Ying Xuan more than 3000 gold.

Although it was a distressed one, Ying Xuan was still very happy.

After all, in the face of the upcoming battle, the more the soldiers from all sides cooperate and understand, the more damage they can reduce.

Among the 20 Guanzhong troops, there are also [-] elites who are loyal to them.

With this agreement, the cavalry, Jiuyuan City, Yunzhong soldiers, and Guanzhong elite all have their own soldiers who can directly deliver the message.

I believe that a lot of damage will be reduced by then.

However, looking at Wang Chengyan's expression of wanting to stop.

Ying Xuan knew that the gold he brought had probably been almost exhausted.

If this continues, there may be no money available in an emergency.

Ying Xuan frowned slightly.

It seems that the westward expansion will also have to be put on the agenda.

Historically, there was a lot of gold in the Western Regions.

But before this, Ying Xuan still spent another twenty gold to extract the additional designated type of reward.

"Hey, congratulations to the host for successfully selecting a counselor."

Ying Xuan looked at the identity card with his back facing Zhang Liangshi with some anticipation.

Who will be the counselor this time?

This person is very important. If he is capable enough, Ying Xuan will put him in the south.

It is used to coordinate the counties in the entire south. By then, whether it is Indochina, Lujiang County, or Nanhai County, they will be closely connected.

Together they form a large coastal base integrating grain production, commerce, ships, and ironware.

It became the foundation behind Ying Xuan’s early start of the Age of Navigation for the Qin Dynasty.

Where will the name "The Sun Never Sets on the Qin Dynasty" begin to spread to the world?

Ying Xuan had a moment of reverie and then regained his composure.

At this critical juncture, it is better to capture the Huyan clan first and break one of the Xiongnu's four legs.

Only in this way can Mao Dun's ambition to go south be curbed.

……

At this moment, in the main hall of Jiuyuan City.

Huyan Zhuoyuan kept hearing reports from scouts.

"Report!"

"A hundred miles to the east, the Qin army camp was discovered at the border of Yunzhong County."

"Report!"

"The branch arriving at Manbai has met some of the Qin people's scouts."

"Report!"

"The Qin people's [-] cavalry have all gathered together. Together with [-] infantry, there are a hundred thousand soldiers stationed at the border of Yunzhong County!"

Huyan Zhuoyuan had a ferocious smile on his face.

"Run!"

"Why don't you run away?"

"Keep running, bet I don't dare to enter Yunzhong County!"

Hu Yanzhuoyuan snorted coldly.

"The eldest son of Da Qin? Don't you want to scare me?"

"Now I'm here to see how you end up!"

"Send the order! Don't be anxious. Rest where you are tonight."

"Let the scouts keep an eye on the Qin army."

"Feed the horses enough fodder. Tomorrow, we will go and take down the head of the eldest son of Da Qin!"

As the words fell, orders were passed out one after another.

At the same time, far southwest of Jiuyuan.

A continuous army with strict military discipline.

We were quietly taking advantage of the last two days without snow to move northwest.

There are not a large number of infantry in the army, but most of them are pushing crossbows, artillery carriages, battering rams, and siege cloud carriages.

There are all kinds of weapons that even Ying Xuan has never seen before.

Even the most ordinary soldiers carry powerful crossbows.

This is truly armed to the teeth.

That was the Guanzhong army that had frightened even Mao Dun when they defeated Ouyue.

If not for the terrain, this army would have returned to Guanzhong.

Baiyue will not fall to Ying Xuan to support him.

Once they reach Qusou and the west side of Xianyang.

The entire Huyan clan will be sealed in place by the most skilled crossbow warriors in the Qin Dynasty.

　Oh, and at night!
