Chapter 435: The latent dragon emerges from its sheath
The casting material used in the Eight Swords of the King of Yue is called 'red gold mine', and its history can be traced back to the war between the Yellow Emperor and Chi You.

It is said that it is a hundred feet deep underground and distributed near a red spring. Hundreds of years ago when King Gou Jian of Yue was mining, he used white horses and white oxen to sacrifice to the gods of Kunwu Mountain. These eight exquisite swords were forged in accordance with the energy of the heaven and earth.

However, it is a pity that two of them have fallen into the hands of Lu Wei. Xuanjian was broken and could not be repaired, but Xie Xie did not match the temperament of Luo Wen and was changed into a monster. In this way, the Eight Swords lost their former power after falling into Luo Wen's hands.

The missing one was replaced by the God of Chaos. The Six Sword Slaves formed in this way are ultimately the product of compromise. Even though the previous generation of Six Sword Slaves could almost instantly kill all the masters in the world, they were still replaced by themselves and others, proving that this path is not invincible. In the world.
Wu Chen looked at the new Six Sword Slaves, including Zhou Wen, and did not think that he and others could surpass the generation that had been working together for more than ten years, let alone play any role in the current world trend.

If they were to assassinate King Lu Wei of Qi, even if they found an opportunity to assassinate him, they would not be able to defeat him, but if they were to assassinate other targets
Wu Chen thought about his plan again and thought that it required Zhou Wen's cooperation and that they had to communicate frankly.

Zhao Gao finally issued another order to Wang Li to return to Guanzhong immediately, and ordered Luo Wang to step up his exploration of the front line, and then went to Wangyi Palace to pay homage to Hu Hai.

Since the last time he dismissed the last group of ministers who dared to oppose him in the court, Hu Hai was having fun in the court, but he came to his senses after going to court and summoned Taibu, who was in charge of the sacrifices, after questioning After learning that it was the cause of evil spirits, he moved out of Xianyang Palace and came to Wangyi Palace for meditation.

Zhao Gao and Shu Suntong strongly agreed with this matter. Out of trust in these two ministers, His Majesty the Second Emperor safely entrusted the government affairs to them.

Yan Le is in charge of security work in Wangyi Palace, and no ministers except Zhao Gao himself are allowed to disturb His Majesty the Emperor.

It was also from that time that the State of Qin truly became Zhao Gao's one-stop shop.

Taibu was a disciple of the Yin-Yang family and was in charge of divination during the First Emperor's period. He did not follow the main force of the Yin-Yang family to withdraw from Guanzhong but stayed in Xianyang. Zhao Gao saw his cooperation and did not replace the candidate.

As a Confucian disciple, Shusun Tong was originally disliked by Zhao Gao, but just like Ziying, Shusun Tong had always shown that although he was competing for Hu Hai's favor, he clearly recognized who was the master of Xianyang now.

These two people are just a microcosm of the many ministers in the court, representing the power that has obeyed Zhao Gao, so even if they have some 'small problems', they are turned a blind eye by Zhao Gao.

In Wangyi Palace, Hu Hai was drinking and having fun. His only entertainment activities were these sensual dogs and horses.

At the beginning of his accession to the throne, as His Majesty the Second Emperor, Hu Hai once thought of following the example of his father Ying Zheng in conducting an eastward tour and completing the mirage eastward search for immortality ceremony that his father had not completed. However, there were "many bandits" outside the customs and "insufficient food and salary" at home. ', in order to show the emperor's benevolence, the matter had to be dropped.

Hu Hai planned to wait until the country became prosperous and powerful in a few years before making an eastward tour.

When he saw Zhao Gao coming, he ignored it with his drunken eyes and continued to enjoy the music and dance.

Zhao Gao stepped forward to add wine to His Majesty the Emperor, knowing that he did not like the affairs of the government, so he never talked about it. Instead, he reported the execution of the court ministers. Hu Hai's eyes lit up when he heard this: "When will the execution be carried out?"

"Your Majesty, it will be the day after tomorrow." Zhao Xiangguo replied calmly.

"Okay, I will go and see them then. Let's arrange their execution dates together. It's rare to find something interesting. It would be too uncomfortable if it disappeared all at once~"

The fun of singing and dancing will become boring after watching too much. Hu Hai, who is proficient in Qin's laws, also treats the execution of torture as a performance. At a young age, his character has been crooked for a long time. Now that he has gained supreme power, he is even more violent.Not only was he not inferior to his father in enslaving the people for large projects, but he was even more cruel in the implementation of private torture.

After setting a time for Hu Hai to travel, Zhao Gao did not stay long before retreating to reduce his disturbance to His Majesty the Emperor. Even though the Emperor could only live for these two days.
Before leaving, he specifically gave Yan Le a glance, and the latter nodded to him clearly.

The hustle and bustle of Wangyi Palace continues, and the prosperity of the empire still maintains the highest standards here.
------

After several days and nights of long-distance running, with only a small amount of rest time, Xiang Yu and Tianming, riding three war horses in turns, followed the large army across Yanmen County and Yunzhong County, and then circled back to Taiyuan from Shang County.

There are 800 elite cavalry in total, and they have already arrived here. The purpose goes without saying: as a surprise force that Wang Li could never imagine, they will directly seize the temporary granary of the Great Wall Army in Taiyuan County, and attack the follow-up troops. Qin reinforcements rushed to the battlefield.

Attacking 10 people with [-] cavalry is simply asking for death. But Han Xin is confident, the cavalry commander Yan Bing is confident, and Xiang Yu and Tianming among the cavalry are even more confident!

The battlefield is too big for them to gallop.

Although the Great Wall Army was elite, their food supply was insufficient from the beginning due to the fall of Aocang. It was quite inconvenient to transport food from Guanzhong to the north due to lack of corridors, and Guanzhong also began to experience food shortages after losing Bashu and Aocang. , In addition, the main responsibility of the Great Wall Legion is to retreat, and there will be no excess food and grass transported to the front line for them to consume.

The result of these conditions combined is that the Great Wall Legion's food reserves are extremely 'accurate', and not a single grain can be wasted.

Later, because Wang Li sent out troops to attack Han Xin without authorization to extend the supply distance, this gap appeared early on, but the soldiers could still sustain it by eating less every day. However, once the Qin army continued to add fuel to the fire on this basis, the Qin army would collapse.

Just like the fire at Li Mu in Yishan in the south dispersed the 20 Qin Army in the Southern Army, Han Xin also used a fire to wipe out the 18 Great Wall Army in ashes.

Holding the gun tightly in his hand, Xiang Yu felt his blood boiling. Such a battle really excited him!

In the original battle between Qin and Chu, Wang Li's grandfather Wang Jian defeated his grandfather Xiang Yan. Now, Xiang Yu plans to use the hottest blood to wash away this shame and use it as the starting point of his military career.

Tianming felt his friend's mood and decided to escort him to complete this charge.

The cavalry commander Yan Bing bravely conquered Daze Mountain with his strength, and Xiang Yu also accomplished great feats in the Mohist city. A spearhead charge formed by these two people would be a nightmare for the Qin army!
In Yanmen, Han Xin walked out of the tent with his thin body wrapped in a white robe, looking up at the starry sky, and the hidden dragon sword on his waist faintly roared:

"Yan Bing's side should start, and we can take the initiative tomorrow!"

The latent dragon is out of its sheath.
