Qiang Qin

Seeing Meng Tian spitting blood suddenly, all the people present panicked, some officials who were closer to him stepped forward to help him, and some stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do.Fusu also stood up from the throne, came to Meng Tian and said with a worried face: "General Meng, take care of your health first, and I and other ministers will take care of the rest for you." He said loudly He said, "Come here, hurry up and invite Wang Jin to the main hall." This Wang Jin is the royal doctor in Fusu Palace.

Hearing Fusu's words, Meng Tian was very moved, and felt a little afraid to accept this great favor, so he wanted to give it up, but because his blood was constantly surging, he couldn't even speak, so he could only accept it.After a while, Wang Jin came to diagnose and treat Meng Tian. After taking his pulse, Wang Jin pondered for a long time before he said to Fusu: "Your Majesty, General Meng's illness is caused by years of fatigue. Coupled with the momentary excitement just now, he was completely induced by his illness. If you want him to recover, you must take good care of him and rest for a few months, so that General Meng can recover."

"Okay, as long as you are sure that General Meng will be ill, I can depend on you." Fu Su said, he could already think of the reason for Meng Tian's sudden illness.Ever since Fusu crossed here, every step he took was with Meng Tian. Whether it was raising troops, taking Xianyang, or even fighting the Chu people, Meng Tian's help was inseparable from everything.As a subject, the pressure on his shoulders is obviously heavier than his own. Even though his body is very strong because of the battle, he can't stand the endless fatigue. Now that something happened to Meng Yi again this time, Meng Tian was anxious for his brother's help. Anwei also felt ashamed of Fusu, that's why he had a sudden attack just now.After figuring this out, Fusu felt a little bit guilty towards Meng Tian. During this period of time, he paid more and more attention to Zhang Liang and Han Xin, but he forgot about Meng Tian, ​​the person who followed him through life and death. In order to compensate Meng Tian, ​​Fu Su has decided in his heart not to pursue Meng Yi's mistake this time, but also to save Meng Yi's life.

Under Wang Jin's order, several servants came to help Meng Tian out of the hall and sent him home.After they all left, Fusu continued the question just now: "Now that the counties in the north have fallen under the Huns' horseshoes, I don't know who of you can share my worries." In fact, in Fusu's mind, he really wanted to It was Meng Tian who was sent to deal with the Huns. Whether it was his calm personality or the big victories against the Huns in the past, he was enough to be in command. Unfortunately, it was no longer possible for Meng Tian to go north to fight against the Huns, so Fusu only Can pick out a suitable candidate from among others.

Han Xin stood up immediately: "I am willing to go. As long as you give me 5 horses, I will be able to expel the Huns who will invade in the future from our territory in Daqin."

As soon as he finished speaking, another person also said: "I am also willing to share the worries of the emperor. Since I returned to the Great Qin, I have not made an inch of merit, but the emperor has treated me so kindly to me, which really makes me ashamed. Now I am reporting to the emperor. It's time to kill and reuse the great kindness." When Fu Suzhan looked over, he found that the person speaking was Long Qi, the general of Chu State.What he said was true, when he was beating Xiang Yu, Fusu would not let him, a descendant of Chu State, lead troops to deal with his own people, so until now he has not made any contribution to Qin State.

After thinking for a while, Fu Su said: "Since both of you have the heart to contribute to my great Qin, then I will let you lead the troops to the north together. Now there are 2 elite soldiers who have arrived in Xianyang. Allocate 6 horses from Xianyang City, and you will take the [-] horses to the north. Be sure to keep the enemies of the Huns from our Central Plains city. After the reinforcements from other counties arrive, I will send people to support them. you."

The two hurriedly agreed: "Here!".The other officials were also relieved to see that everything was settled.Then Fusu discussed with them the dispatching order of the troops and the matter of food and supplies, and then let everyone disperse.

After all the courtiers had retreated, Fusu turned around and returned to the harem. After changing into ordinary people's clothes, Tie called two soldiers and rushed to Meng Tian's mansion to visit.On the one hand, I went to Meng Mansion to Fusu to comfort Meng Tian and urge the doctor to treat him well, and on the other hand, I also wanted to get some ways to deal with the Huns from Meng Tian.After all, in terms of the experience of fighting the Huns, no one in the whole dynasty can compare with Meng Tian. Although Han Xin and Long Qie are also good at using soldiers, they have never fought any battles with the Huns.So although Fusu gave them soldiers, he didn't really believe that they could expel the Huns in one battle, and everything had to wait until all the troops arrived.

After Wang Jin's treatment, Meng Tian finally stopped vomiting blood, but he was still exhausted, so he could only lean on the couch and talk to Fusu.Seeing the shame on his face, Fusu hurriedly comforted him: "General Meng and I, Daqin Sheji, and I both have made great contributions, and I will not blame you for what happened to Meng Yi. Now I only give you a decree, That is to cultivate well at home, and only by raising your body can you continue to serve me." Then Fusu changed the subject and asked, "The general has also fought many times with the Huns, is there any way to defeat the enemy?"

Meng Tian pondered for a while, and then said: "I know that the Huns rely on their fast horses and strong bows. Those Huns grew up on horseback since they were young, so their riding and shooting skills are far better than those of my Central Plains. People, but now our great Qin cavalry have the saddles and stirrups made by the emperor, and they are not inferior to those Huns in cavalry. But the fierceness of the Huns is still not what my soldiers and horses in the Central Plains can resist. Therefore, the ability to repeatedly defeat the Huns is nothing more than superiority in military strength. Therefore, if our Daqin wants to defeat the Huns, we must rely on the number of times the enemy's military strength and have a good strategy for using troops. And I learned from the recent battle reports Look, the methods used by the Huns to take my two cities this time are also quite powerful. Obviously, they no longer only know their own bravery like they did back then, but have become able to use some strategies. In this way, the Huns threatened me. It is even bigger. Therefore, I ask the emperor to ask the generals who lead the troops to defend first. As long as we defend, the Huns will lose half. If they attack rashly, my brother Meng Yi will be theirs. Lessons learned from the past.”

Fusu knew that what Meng Tian said was very pertinent, but now the Great Qin in his hands had just emerged from the chaos of war, and its military strength was far inferior to when Qin Shihuang sent Meng Tian to attack the Xiongnu, so it is impossible to send hundreds of thousands of troops now. The large army went to deal with the Huns, so they had to find other ways in other ways.Although Fusu didn't have much confidence in this matter, but in order not to make Meng Tian too sad and affect his condition, he nodded and said: "General Meng's words are very helpful for us to defeat the Huns in the Great Qin. You Let's cultivate with peace of mind, and wait for the good news from the north."

Two days ago, at noon, [-] troops were ready to go. Fusu held a farewell party for him at the north gate of Xianyang, holding a bowl of wine in his hand. It is time for you to show your talents and make great achievements, and I am only waiting for the news of your victory!" He drank the wine in one gulp.Seeing that Fusu came to the gate of the city to bid farewell to him as the emperor, all the soldiers were very moved and shouted: "Don't worry, your majesty, we will definitely kill all the Huns who commit crimes in the future, so that they will not be left behind." They dare not offend Daqin again from now on!"

The army marched slowly after the sound of the war drums. All the soldiers only thought about how to get to the north as soon as possible to kill those Huns. They all went with confidence. Only Han Xin and Long Qie were the two generals. The hearts of the Huns were heavy, because they knew that although the dispatch of troops looked aggressive, in fact the strength of the Huns was not inferior to them.And Fusu specially asked them to talk to them the day before, and also mentioned that the Huns should not be underestimated, and told the two of Meng Tian's words.Although Han Xin has great confidence in his ability to lead troops, he still admires Meng Tian, ​​who assisted Fusu earlier than himself, and now even he says that the Huns are difficult to deal with, and let them focus on defense , obviously this expedition must be a tough battle, so his heart is not as relaxed as it was a few days ago.And Long Qie was actually more nervous than Han Xin, this was his first battle after he surrendered to Fusu, and this was the key to whether he could gain a foothold in Qin State in the future, so naturally there was no room for loss.The general and the soldiers embarked on the journey to the north with two completely different moods...

At this time in Yunzhong County, Zhou Xing and Guo Quanzhong were discussing whether they should send troops, and several days had passed, but there was still no one from Xianyang, and the news from Yanmen was The reason is that the Qin army there has absolutely no possibility of breaking through. If there is no more troops to rescue them, tens of thousands of Qin army soldiers will die there. This is what Zhou Xing and Guo Quanzhong don't want to see.After being silent for a while, Zhou Xing said: "Brother Guo, if we just guard here and watch the soldiers die there, I, Zhou Xing, will never feel at ease in my life. I'm afraid it's already made a big mistake."

Guo Quanzhong knew very well in his heart that the Huns had not wiped out those Qin troops for so long because they were waiting for the defenders from other places to appear, but like Zhou Xing, he really couldn't pass his own test.In fact, both of them are not generals in the true sense, because they are still unable to use troops, so in the end Guo Quanzhong said: "Since the general really wants to save people, then let's send troops..."
