Da Qin: We just traveled through time and you proclaimed yourself emperor in Rome

Chapter 203 Do you think Ying Laoliu is a fool?
Not to mention the current monkey, even before, it was no match for him.

As long as these monsters don't appear together, he is almost invincible!

"As ordered."

Zhang Jiu nodded slightly, keeping this in mind, and secretly wondered what torture methods his father had invented in the past.

During the initial campaign against the Six Kingdoms, in order to extract a confession, the Shaofu had specially asked someone to study a method.

"How has the iron mine been recently? Is there any new development?" Ying Tian picked up the wine and asked casually after everyone drank one.

Due to the disappearance of monsters, the labor force has been greatly liberated, and soldiers will go mining every day in addition to exercising.

There is no way, without slaves, we can only let the soldiers do it themselves.

Fortunately, the mining process can also build strength.

"Two more ores were discovered nearby, and I have ordered them to be mined. However, these ores are many times more difficult to mine than the original iron mines."

Zhang Jiu pointed to several locations circled in notes on the map and spoke helplessly.

Now they are facing the most serious problem, that is, there are not enough slaves.

If there are enough slaves, he is confident that he can directly build the Great Wall to a hundred meters high and build a city that can withstand even monsters attacking the city!

"Your Majesty, according to Alexander Yun, someone in later generations tried to calculate it. I am afraid that the total remaining population in ancient times is only [-] million."

Zhang Jiu sighed and said helplessly.

It wasn't that he lamented that so many people died, but that whenever he thought about having no slaves to use, he felt heartbroken.

Whether in the past or now, slaves have an undoubted role in the development of the Shaofu. The reason why Da Qin can develop so fast is inseparable from slaves.

"Is there only this few people? The remaining population is too small, right?"

Ying Tian was shocked by this number.

But after thinking about it carefully, I feel that this number is considered normal.

The major forces with the largest population in later generations are still alive and have not been destroyed.

The combined total population of Xia Kingdom, Yin Tu, Bear Kingdom, and Lighthouse reached almost 40 billion.

Everyone was chatting away, and the heat of the hot pot was in sharp contrast to the heavy snow falling around them.

It's a pity that no outsiders saw this scene, otherwise they would die of jealousy.

At this moment, the lives of Ying Zheng and others, and Ying Tian, ​​can be said to be one day at a time.

in the valley.

Tent after tent stood on the ground, and Ying Zheng and others gathered around the campfire and ate the dried meat they had brought with them.

"Your Majesty, these monsters suddenly disappeared, and I suspect that there is a conspiracy brewing." Zhang Han held a dagger in his hand, and while cutting the meat, he watched the surroundings carefully to prevent any accidents.

Since there were no time travelers around, they didn't know what happened during this time.

Before the monsters came, Blue Star was not big and could still send people to inquire for information. Since the scope of Blue Star has increased, almost all the forces have become independent entities.

It is almost impossible to find information like before.

The disadvantages of underdeveloped transportation in ancient times were magnified countless times in this battle.

"There should be some kind of change that we don't know about, but none of this is important. Strength is the root of everything." Ying Zheng shook his head gently and said calmly.

Compared with the 20-strong army at the beginning, there are now only nearly [-] left.

Half the people died on the road.

However, among the remaining 10 soldiers, almost every soldier has a physique of [-], and among them, there are nearly [-] soldiers with a physique of over [-].

And there are dozens of people with a physique of up to [-].

Li Xin's physique was the first to break through to over 3000.

Compared to before, this army has undergone earth-shaking changes. Each one of them looked resolute, as if they had stepped out of the apocalypse. Just standing there gave people a great sense of oppression.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that these soldiers have been baptized in blood.

"Your Majesty, if we advance at the current speed, we should be able to return to Da Qin in only three years at most." Zhang Han said after calculating in his mind.

This number made everyone around him sigh.

The previous ten years were really scary.

Although three years is a long time, it is better than ten years.

“I don’t know when this kind of living in the open air will end.”

Wang Ben folded his hands behind his head and lay on the ground, full of emotion.

He couldn't help but think of Ying Tian.

I don’t know how the Ninth Young Master is doing now, but I think it won’t be easy after the monster comes.

"After all, we have a lot of manpower. I'm afraid the Ninth Young Master is still being besieged by monsters. If you're lucky, you can have enough to eat. If you're not lucky, you may not even have enough to eat."

Zhang Han saw through what he was thinking at a glance and said with emotion.

Along the way, they encountered countless monsters, and Ying Tian and others must have encountered many monsters as well.

They have 20 people in their hands, while Ying Tian only has 10 people.

Not to mention, Ying Tian and others had just experienced two unprecedented battles, and all the accumulated information had been exhausted.

"I don't know if the Fourth Brother has arrived in Rome yet. I think he will arrive soon."

Ying Zheng squinted his eyes, calculated the time, and said calmly.

After the monster arrived, he immediately ordered Ying Gao to lead a group of troops to support Ying Tian.

If it had happened before, it would have been more than half a year. But after the monster comes, everything may happen. No one knows whether there will be an accident on the road.

"Oh, it would be great if we could catch a time traveler."

Zhang Han's eyes were full of pity.

Along the way, they also tried to go to the small towns they passed, but everywhere they went, they were all empty cities, and some of them were even occupied by monsters.

You don't need to think about it to know what will happen to those who travel through time.

After everyone rested here for half a day, they got on their horses again and rushed towards Da Qin.

It is worth mentioning that not only the Qin soldiers, but also these war horses have greatly increased their physical fitness due to devouring a large amount of monster food and spiritual rice.

The war horse started running at a terrifying speed, like a gust of wind blowing by.

If you look from the sky to the ground, you will find that the huge Qin army is like a sharp arrow, tearing a big gap deep in the wilderness.

As time passed, not to mention other people, even Brother Zheng couldn't help but have doubts in his heart. He didn't even encounter a single monster along the way.

But this is beneficial to them, as it can greatly increase their traveling speed.

If the monster never appears, the time it takes to get back to Da Qin will be greatly shortened, and it is very likely that it will arrive within two years. This is because of the obstruction caused by the snow in winter, otherwise the speed will be faster.

If we want to say who is the worst person, it is undoubtedly Ashoka.

Ashoka stood on the deck as usual, looking at the boundless sea, his eyes full of bitterness.

There were only 1000 men and horses left around him, and nearly two-thirds of them died at sea. The weapons, crossbows, etc. they carried were also completely consumed.

The total number of arrows on more than a dozen ships was less than a thousand!
"Fortunately, all these monsters have disappeared. If there is another attack, I'm afraid it will really be over."

Ashoka stood up from the deck, holding the railing with both hands, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

In the past six months, they had been attacked more than a dozen times. Fortunately, the scale of the attacks was not very large, and the 50-meter-long monster that appeared before did not appear again.

Moreover, two months ago, the monster completely disappeared and never attacked again.

"Your Majesty, the fish is ready."

A soldier held grilled fish in his hand and spoke respectfully.

Looking at the grilled fish handed over by the general, Asoka's face trembled, and in his heart ten thousand grass and mud horses were running through him.

Since several ships transporting grain and grass were sunk by monsters, the amount of grain and grass left on the ship was greatly reduced, so they could only feed on fish in the sea.

I have been eating fish for nearly half a year, and now I feel like vomiting when I see fish.

Click!

Ashoka gritted his teeth hard and took a big bite.

"Have you seen land? How long is it to the island? We need to find a place to rest first, remelt the armor of the dead soldiers, and smelt them into arrows. Otherwise, if we encounter monster attacks again, we will definitely die."

He suppressed nausea and his eyes became serious.

After more than 2000 soldiers died in battle, their equipment was left behind. After being remade, these equipment can greatly enhance their combat effectiveness.

This is the only way now. "Your Majesty, I didn't even see an island."

Pian Jiang gave a wry smile and said helplessly.

After being frightened at sea for so long, everyone felt a sense of powerlessness in their hearts. They urgently needed to put their feet on the ground. The sense of solidity brought by land was far inferior to that of ships.

"Strange, we have been sailing for nearly half a year, but we haven't even seen an island?" Ashoka reached out and took out the chart from his arms, his eyes full of doubts.

When Buddha first traveled to ancient times, he obtained an extremely complete map of the world through later generations, which included the coordinates of many islands on the sea.

"It seems that there was a deviation during the voyage, which led to the miss. There is often heavy fog on the sea, so it is normal to miss it. There is no need to worry about continuing on."

After Ashoka glanced at the map twice, he waved his hand impatiently.

I had never gone to sea before, so I realized an extremely serious problem after going to sea, that is, having a chart alone is useless.

To be honest, he didn't even know where he and others were now.

Therefore, even if the location of the island is marked on the map, it is difficult to estimate how far away it is.

"Ship, sail, don't waste any more time."

After Asoka took a big bite of the grilled fish, he sat weakly on the deck.

The only thing he was excited about was that as he hunted monsters during these days, his physique had exceeded 1000 points, and his whole face was glowing with glory, as if he had been reborn.

"Ying Tian, ​​with my current physique, I can definitely suppress you with one hand. When I return from America, it will be the time to kill you. You'd better survive until then."

Ashoka clenched his fists, a fierce light erupted from the depths of his eyes, making no secret of his murderous intention towards Ying Tian.

He couldn't forget that all of this was forced by Ying Tian. If it weren't for Ying Tian, ​​why would he have left the Maurya Dynasty and not be able to return?

If given the chance, he would not hesitate to twist off Ying Tian's head with his own hands.

"And that bullshit Ying Zheng and Ying Ying, you all wait for me, don't be anxious, come one by one."

Ashoka squeezed his finger bones so hard that his eyes instantly turned red.

If he could, why would he be willing to go to the United States? All this was just a helpless move.

Involuntarily, he thought of the Bald General and others again. He wondered how they were doing now. It was absolutely impossible not to miss the Maurya Dynasty at all.

"Your Majesty, we haven't encountered monsters for two whole months. Where do you think these monsters have gone?" The captain came to King Ashoka with confusion written on his face.

It was good for them not to encounter monsters, but for some reason, they still felt uneasy.

Moreover, without monsters, it means that you will not be able to obtain system rewards.

For those who are used to receiving system rewards every day, it is very uncomfortable to suddenly not be able to get them.

"do not know."

Ashoka shook his head decisively.

After going to sea, he discovered that he had overlooked a very serious problem, that is, there were no time travelers around him.

This also resulted in the almost complete loss of contact with future generations. After such a long time, I had no idea what happened in future generations, let alone whether something happened that I didn't know about.

Although there was no time travel around him before he went to sea, there was only such a big place in ancient times, so it was not difficult to get information.

It was different after going to sea. Not to mention the time-travelers, I couldn't even see many people. Although I was mentally prepared, when I actually faced it, I still felt a little panicked.

"sleep."

The more Asoka thought about it, the more he got a headache. In the end, he simply scratched his head a few times, returned to the cabin and fell asleep.

What he didn't know was that life for the bald general and others was not easy at all.

Not to mention reaching a desperate situation, it's not much different.

"The number of 400 million people dropped sharply to 100 million, and more than 300 million people died. How will I explain to the King after I return?"

The bald general stood in front of a castle, looking at the scarred soldiers in the city with confusion written on his face.

After sending King Ashoka away eight months ago, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he stayed on the shore for more than a month. After building some steam engines and ships, he sent some people to deliver a message to King Ashoka. , and then led the army to leave.

But he didn't expect that not long after he left, he was attacked by a group of talking stones.

The attack method of these stones is very special. They will use themselves as weapons to throw out. Every attack will hit the target with perfect accuracy, and can smash a bloody hole in a person's head as big as the mouth of a bowl.

Who would have thought that before they could escape, they would be attacked by a group of red-furred foxes, causing another fierce battle to break out.

In these eight months, he experienced no less than twenty bloody battles.

After leading people to attack here and building a defense line, they gradually stabilized the decadent trend. However, these battles also caused the original army of 400 million to become more than 100 million.

boom!
The bald general's legs weakened and he fell limply to the ground.

Eight months did not lead to much progress, and now we have just arrived at the imperial city of the Ptolemaic Kingdom.

He couldn't imagine how much he would have to pay if he wanted to return to the Maurya Dynasty. He didn't even know if there would be a chance to go back in this life.

"General, the monster has not appeared for two months, and the soldiers' injuries have been somewhat repaired. Do we need to start again?"

At this moment, a soldier came closer and asked respectfully.

They have been staying in this dilapidated castle for nearly three months.

"How many people do we have in total now?"

The bald general took a deep breath and tried to stand up from the ground.

Ashoka is not here, so he must stand up and carry the banner.

If even he falls, then the Maurya Dynasty may really be completely over.

"Today we have 130 million people left, and all the soldiers have reached a physical fitness level of 700. Through deliberate cultivation, more than [-] people have a physical fitness of over [-]."

The soldier said respectfully.

While paying a huge price, it is not without rewards.

Even ordinary soldiers' physical fitness improved to a certain extent after eating these monsters.

"In that case, let's continue our journey."

After thinking for a moment, the bald general nodded slightly.

After standing up, he suddenly discovered that several other colleagues were standing around, looking like they were hesitant to speak.

"Everyone, if you have anything to say, it's okay to say it. Although the King has handed over the Maurya Dynasty to me, we have worked together in the court for so many years and there is no need to meet outsiders."

The bald general frowned, then smiled and said.

"General, we agree that it is not a good idea to go back to Maurya now and that we should return to Rome."

One of the old men with a white beard stood up and spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, the bald general's legs went weak and he almost collapsed to the ground.

I wanted to raise my hand and slap the old man twice.

In any case, he never expected that these people would be so bold.

Who is Ying Tian?

That is a murderous god-like existence!
Even Ashoka couldn't get any advantage in front of Ying Tian. I wonder if these people had the courage to take the initiative to provoke Ying Tian.

He even wondered if these people were bribed by Ying Tian and became moles, right?
"During these days, our strength has been strengthened like never before. Maybe we can take the opportunity to kill Ying Tian."

The white-bearded old man's eyes shone brightly and he waved his fists excitedly.

In the past eight months, they had wanted to kill Ying Tian all the time. After seeing how powerful they were, they could no longer hold back their excitement.

Snapped!
The bald general slapped him on the head without hesitation.

"If you dare to say one more word, believe it or not, I will kill you immediately?"

Anyone with a brain knows that it is definitely not a wise move to provoke Ying Tian now.

After the battle, the strength of the Mauryan Dynasty has indeed increased a lot, doubling than before, but are Ying Tian and others fools who don't know how to hunt monsters?

He suddenly understood Ashoka's previous helplessness. He had a group of pig teammates under him, and anyone would collapse.

"But."

The old man with a white beard was stunned by this slap. He raised his hand in dissatisfaction and wanted to continue to refute.

"Come on!"

The bald general frowned, and simply ordered someone to bring him an iron chain, tie him up, and then throw him into the carriage.

His face darkened, and he glanced at the remaining people coldly, "If anyone dares to say such idiotic words again, I don't mind tying up all of you."
