Da Qin: Self-destruction and time travel, I will extend my life for Qin for a thousand years

Time goes back to half a year ago, when Cui Yuan and Ying Yinman got married.

At that time, the whole country of Qin was celebrating, and all the people were celebrating Cui Yuan and celebrating this God-given marriage.

The remnants of the Six Kingdoms are also ready to take advantage of this moment to do something big.

Among them, Zhao Xie planned to carry out a suicide terrorist attack in Xianyang, and there were also many ambitious people who contacted the Qin Dynasty to conquer the Southern Army and had grand plans.

Their army of conquering the South numbered hundreds of thousands, carrying a large number of elite forces from the Qin Dynasty. They had abundant force and were a powerful force for the Qin Dynasty to unify the six countries.

But they have to keep confronting the Yue people in a small place like Lingnan, far away from the civilized Guan Nei and Guandong, and can only deal with poisonous insects and beasts every day. On the grounds of surviving, they are tempted to rebel, resist the Qin Dynasty, and return to their hometown.

Because there were many surrendered soldiers from the six countries in the Great Qin Army in the South. They left their hometowns, and many of them had not even returned home for twenty years.

Therefore, this theory is very popular and can easily arouse people's hatred.

But the senior officials of the Zhengnan Army were rational. Whether it was Zhao Tuo, Ren Xiao, or the seven commanders under their command, they all rejected this idea.

Although they are living a difficult life now and cannot go home, at least they can still live, and their lives are relatively nourishing, without having to go to the fields to farm.

If you really listen to these guys' nonsense, raise your troops to rebel, and seek death to confront His Majesty the First Emperor and His Majesty the King of Qin, then you are out of your mind!
  They are reckless men, but they are not idiots who want to die!

The remnants of the Six Nations tried to persuade him to no avail, and they were disappointed, but they were unwilling to give up.

Therefore, after a few days of silence, they suddenly appeared with more than a dozen envoys from great powers claiming to be from the west of the Qin Dynasty, and came to visit them together.

It was promised that as long as the Conquest Army sent [-] people to escort a large pile of straw and locust eggs to Handan County, and stored them for more than half a year, it would trigger a locust plague.

Then besides that, you can get huge benefits without doing anything, and get the rich wealth brought by the envoys of great powers!

When Zhao Tuo, Ren Xiao, and the seven commanders heard this, they were all moved, as expected.

Although they were still loyal to the Qin Dynasty and the First Emperor, life in Lingnan was really too hard.

Especially their colleagues, such as Wang Bi, Meng Yi and Ye Teng, were all drinking wine and singing songs in the pass, with who knows how many beauties in their arms.

However, he and others could only lead a group of surrendered soldiers from the six countries in pain, baring their teeth at poisonous insects and wild beasts, and even celebrating the festival had to guard against sneak attacks by Yue people.

Without comparison, there is no harm!

And in their opinion, these straws would, at best, cause an ordinary locust plague and would not cause any trouble.

They themselves have personally experienced locust plagues two or three times, and each time they suffered the death penalty, and then they survived.

And I heard that various parts of Daqin are still promoting a high-yielding crop called sweet potato. The yield of just one acre of planting is enough to match the yield of dozens of acres of crops in the past, enough to feed dozens of people!

With it here, a trivial locust plague would not be able to harm Da Qin at all, let alone cause any damage to the muscles and bones!

As long as there is food, you can get through it without holding on. If you hold on until you die, it will just give Handan County Governor Guo Li a headache for a while! And what does this have to do with yourself?
  These calculations by the envoys of the great powers and the remnants of the six countries are destined to fail!
  In this case, you might as well take the opportunity to make a fortune and pick up a lot of gold and jewelry for nothing!
  Not to mention that these envoys from great powers also brought a rare treasure called spices, which was very precious.

After it is lit, it will emit a strange fragrance, which can make people's ears and eyes clear and refreshed!
  If we can make good friends with these envoys and vigorously promote this treasure in Daqin in the future, won't we be able to make a lot of money and enjoy leisurely happiness in Lingnan County?
  To sum up, Zhao Tuo, Ren Xiao, and the seven commanders all agreed to the matter after thinking for a moment.

In their opinion, the outbreak of locust plague in Handan County would not attract the attention of His Majesty and the King of Qin at all.

This is the wealth you picked up for free. You are sure to make money without losing it. Don’t give it up for free.

And then...something unexpected happened!
  "An ancestor of my Ren family was once an astronomer. According to his seniority, he is the master of the current Master Yin of the All-Sky Star Platform."

"Therefore, I have a very good personal relationship with Master Yin. I intentionally disclosed this matter in an exchange of letters and wanted him to help me pay attention to the situation in Handan County."

"As a result, a while ago, after the time agreed by the messengers came, a locust plague broke out in Handan County as promised, and the disaster was extremely terrifying. The locusts that appeared were unprecedented!"

"Master Yin has made some speculations and found that if the locust plague in Handan is not controlled, there is a [-]% chance that it will cause a large-scale grain crop failure in the Guandong Plain, and there is a [-]% chance of threatening the entire territory."

"So I told His Majesty and Cui Shenxian the news overnight, asking them to save the people of Handan County, and also sent me a summons to tell me the relevant matters, so that we could be mentally prepared to be liquidated..."

Ren Xiao stood on the table with one hand, covered his brow, and told the incident in great pain.

Not only him, Zhao Tuo's expression was not much better, as if he had eaten shit. The other seven commanders were even more desperate!

God! ! !

How did such an abstract thing happen? ?
  "This Yin Gaofeng who suffered a thousand blows actually dares to betray us!"

"That's right! Don't give me a chance, otherwise I will join his family!"

"Fuck it! Fuck it!"

Snapped!
  "Shut up! Can you calm down!"

"Don't sit around spouting shit all day long, think about it with your brain!"

Ren Xiao slapped the table angrily, scaring all these noisy guys!

"The fault for this matter is not Yin Gaofeng's, but ours!"

"It's because we covet the gifts from those bullshit remnants of the Six Kingdoms and their envoys. It's because we were seduced by the benefits, thinking that this matter was nothing special, and it would be over after a while, which almost caused Da Qin to fall into dire straits!"

"If Yin Gaofeng fails to notify His Majesty and the King of Qin, he will not only commit dereliction of duty, but will also cause tens of millions of people in the Guandong Pass to be displaced and tens of millions of acres of fertile land to be harvested!"

"At that time, we will be the real sinners of the ages. Not only will we die, but also the nine tribes will be annihilated!"

"Not only did Yin Gaofeng not betray us, he actually helped us make up for our mistakes to the greatest extent possible!"

Zhao Tuo was also there to help and said to everyone: "General Ren is right!"

"The fault for this super locust disaster must be ours!"

"The top priority now is not to shirk responsibility, but to figure out how to make up for it in order to save our lives!"

When the seven commanders heard this, their faces turned green and yellow!
  How could they not understand what the two generals meant?
  It’s just that it’s easier to shirk responsibility to others than to admit your own mistakes!
  "No... why don't we arrest all the remnants and envoys of the Six Nations who bewitched us and hand them over to the imperial court for disposal?" a commander suggested.

"How to catch?"

Another commander rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Do you think those guys are fools and will stay where they are and let us catch them?"

"Can't we arrest him?" the third commander asked.

"Wanted? Wanted is useless!"

The fourth commander retorted: "The remnants of the Six Nations who can be caught by the notice have already been caught, and the rest don't care at all!"

The fifth commander agreed: "That's right! As for those envoys from the big country, do you believe that they have already slipped back to the big country? How can they care about our life and death?"

The sixth commander excitedly stood up and said, "Even if it's useless, we still have to make a show of it!" "This won't work, and that won't work either. Is it possible that we just do nothing and wait to die?"

The seventh commander was completely desperate: "How about we stop arguing and go directly to Xianyang to plead guilty?"

The seven commanders were all talking and arguing.

Fortunately, there are still Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo here. The two of them made it for a while, and based on what they had discussed in private before, they quickly made a compensation plan!
  The first is to capture and arrest the remnants of the six countries and the envoys of the great powers.

The sixth commander was right.

Even if these measures are useless, we can't do nothing. The worst we can do is pick out a few of the death row prisoners as scapegoats. The attitude of admitting mistakes must be corrected!
  The second step is to take the initiative to confess, plead guilty, and hand over all the treasures of wealth previously obtained from the envoys of the great powers.

He also took the initiative to compensate the people of Handan County and the losses suffered by Da Qin Chaotang due to this natural disaster, and strived for a leniency.

We must start a war immediately, kill more Yue people, occupy more land, and accumulate some military merits to offset our sins!
  "That's the rough arrangement. I plan for everyone to use [-]% of their family wealth to compensate the people of Handan County and the court. Do you have any other opinions?"

After Ren Xiao finished speaking, he looked around and everyone he saw lowered their heads and agreed to the plan without any objections!
  In other words, I dare not have any opinions.

"Don't even bother me with your face!"

Zhao Tuo said angrily: "I know you care about money, don't I feel sorry for you?"

"But other than that, there is no other way to save our lives."

"And we also pray that His Majesty and the King of Qin can successfully control the locust plague in Handan and clean up the mess we left!"

"Otherwise, even if we give all our property to the court, we will still die!"

The seven commanders trembled and all reacted.

indeed!

If the disaster in Handan cannot be controlled, then they will really have to die!

Seeing that the seven commanders had completely become honest, Zhao Tuo sat down again and looked at each other with Ren Xiao. Their eyes were filled with collapse.

No matter how calm they were in front of the seven commanders, they looked like they had the pearls of wisdom in hand.

But that was actually just to stabilize the morale of the military. Their inner collapse was no less than that of others, and it was more intense.

Because the two of them are still the highest-ranking people in the Conquering South Army, and they are also the ones who have committed the heaviest sins in this incident!
  The guilt you will receive this time will definitely be greater!

"But fortunately, there is still enough time left for us."

Zhao Tuo whispered, Ren Xiao nodded slightly, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Although none of them had personally gone to Handan to see the disaster, based on the description in Master Yin's letter, it was conceivable that the situation there was absolutely serious.

Even if His Majesty and Cui Yuan are extremely capable, they will definitely be dragged out for several months!
  Such a long time is enough for them to find out a few real remnants of the Six Kingdoms to take the blame!

"Report!"

"General Ren! General Zhao! There is an emergency among your subordinates and you must report it immediately!"

Just when the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, there was a rush of shouting outside the bungalow!

"What's going on! You dare to disturb us at this time. Are you seeking death?"

Zhao Tuo was very angry!
  What they just discussed was absolutely confidential. Except for the people present, no one else in the entire Conquest South Army knew!

That is to say, come now. What if this guy comes earlier and hears this big secret?
  Before the meeting, he had given orders three times and five times that no scouts or sentries were allowed to approach. Unexpectedly, there were still people who disobeyed his orders!

"Really..."

"Brother Zhao, don't be angry. It's not too late for us to ask about the situation first and then deal with him!"

Ren Xiao calmly raised his hand to stop Zhao Tuo, and let the sentry with the order come in.

"Tell me! Who is your centurion? And what made you so frizzy to come to us?"

Ren Xiao asked calmly, and Zhao Tuo and the seven commanders all looked at the sentry who sent the order!
  If he didn't give an answer that satisfied everyone, it would be difficult to leave alive today.

"I don't have a centurion."

The sentry raised his head and showed a smiling face: "Because I am not the one who conquered the Southern Army, but the governor of Handan County, Guo Li!"

"Ren Xiao! Zhao Tuo!"

"His Majesty the First Emperor and His Majesty the King of Qin are about to arrive. Why don't you two guilty ministers come out and plead guilty!"

In an instant, the air in the entire bungalow completely solidified!

……

"Your Majesty, actually I have always had a doubt in my mind."

"Obviously we haven't started a detailed investigation yet, why are you so sure that the people behind the scenes are Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao?"

On a straight road more than ten miles away from the Zhengnan Army camp, Cui Yuan looked at Ying Zheng curiously.

"haha!"

Ying Zheng chuckled: "It's really strange! I didn't expect Cui Shenxian, who knows everything, to have things he doesn't know!"

Cui Yuan's face turned red, but he continued to ask: "Your Majesty, please give me some advice!"

Ying Zheng did not answer directly, but asked instead: "If it is not Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao, then Cui Yuan, who do you think it will be?"

"Naturally..."

Cui Yuan originally wanted to say something, but he was stunned the next moment.

After a few seconds of silence, he nodded slowly and looked forward again.

There, outside the camp of the Confederate Army!

Zhao Tuo, Ren Xiao and the seven commanders came over, naked from the waist up and carrying thorns to apologize.

"...There is no one else." (End of chapter)
