Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 167 There are tin soldiers, the world is fighting

When the arrow was in the air, Xiang Yan had already discovered it. In a hurry, Xiang Yan also ignored the courtesy of the monarch and his ministers, and suddenly jumped at the king of Chu, Xiong Qi, intending to throw him down.

However, it was too late. Under Xiang Yan's impact, King Xiong Qi of Chu tilted slightly, and Wang Jian's sharp arrow was already approaching. left chest.

"Shield!" Xiang Yan shouted loudly, and the guards on the side quickly raised their shields to guard them.

Xiang Yan picked up the comatose king of Chu Xiong Qi, and under the protection of a group of Chu troops, he ran towards the palace in the city without stopping.

If the city is lost, it can be regained. If something happens to Xiong Qi, it will be over.Compared with the life of Chu King Xiong Qi, the gains and losses of a city are really insignificant.

When Xiang Yan first arrived at Xiong Qi's bedroom, the most famous doctor in the city had already trotted over with a medicine box on his back.

"How is your Majesty?"

As soon as the doctor finished his diagnosis, Xiang Yan asked anxiously.

However, after the doctor finished his diagnosis, he fell to his knees with a plop almost at the same time as Xiang Yan's questioning.

He said tremblingly: "General, forgive me for not being good at learning, the king's injury is really incurable!"

Sure enough, Xiong Qi had a high fever that evening, and he drove west before midnight.

When Xiong Qi died, Xiang Yan, who had been waiting by the side, was distraught immediately, holding Xiong Qi's corpse and weeping bitterly, his voice was extremely sad.

"General, the dead cannot be brought back to life. The king has already died. You should not be too sad."

After hearing the news, the general of the Chu army who rushed to the bedroom gave him a soft admonishment from the side.

Xiong Qi's succession to the throne is still short, and he has not yet established his supreme prestige. These generals in the army are not so sad about his death. They really don't understand why Xiang Yan is in such pain.

Xiang Yan wept and said, "Shouchun City is broken. My wife, children, and children must have been killed by the tyrant Qin. I have become a lonely family. The reason why I was born here in secret is because the Mi family is still alive. What do you expect when the king dies today?"

Shouchun City was broken. From Xiang Yan's point of view, the son and grandson he stayed in Shouchun City to appease the cud must have been slaughtered by the Qin army.

However, the reason why I didn't reveal it before is only because I am the general of the Chu State. The Xiang family has received great favors from the Chu kings of the past. With Xiong Qi in the Chu State, there is still hope for a comeback. Can be forgotten.

However, when Xiong Qi died, the only psychological pillar in Xiang Yan's heart immediately collapsed. Xiong Qi can be said to be the only known direct bloodline of the Chu king. His death, except for some extremely remote branches of the Chu country, can be said to have been cut off up.

However, what Xiang Yan didn't know was that shortly after Shouchun City was broken, Xiang Liang sneaked out of Shouchun City with his grandson Xiang Yu, but was not captured by the Qin army.

Of course, this is also related to Ziying's ignorance that Xiang Yu was in Shouchun at that time. If he knew, he might try his best to kill the future Overlord of Western Chu.

"Why did the heavens treat Da Chu so unfairly!" Xiang Yan raised his head to the sky and shouted, truthfully these three things.

As soon as the words were finished, before the surrounding generals could react, Xiang Yan pulled out the long sword from his waist and killed himself.

After Xiang Yan's death, the leaderless Chu army was in chaos, and the Qin army besieged on all sides discovered the abnormality in Jinling City that night, but launched an attack on Jinling City in the early morning of the next day to be on the safe side.

The chaotic Chu army couldn't even organize an effective defense. Before they attacked Jinling City, the last military stronghold of Chu, they declared a change of owner.

After conquering Jinling, Wang Jian and Ziying led the army to continue southward, sweeping the Jiangnan area of ​​Chu State.

The counties and counties in the south of the Yangtze River of Chu State, which had no soldiers and no food, were all looking forward to the wind. On this day, Yingwang Jian's army marched to a mountainous area and camped temporarily, preparing to bury the pot for cooking.

Not long after the camp was set up, some soldiers came to report that a battalion of soldiers dug up an ancient stele while they were burying pots for cooking, but the soldiers could not read the characters.

Hearing that Wang Jian and Ziying were very interested, Dang even got up and followed the sergeant to check.

After a while, they came to the place where the ancient stele was excavated.

"I have met the general, I have seen Lord Chang'an." Seeing Wang Jian and Ziying arriving in person, the captain of the battalion immediately greeted them and introduced them:

"Just now when the pot was being buried to make rice, the soldiers dug up the stele. At first they thought it was a broken stone and wanted to get it out, so they discarded it. But after it was released, they realized it was a stele.

The above is the twelve characters of the text, and the ancient meaning of the view is full, and none of them can be broken, so it is presented above. "

After the captain's introduction, Ziying was even more itchy.

You must know that this time is not a later life, there are ancient monuments and tombs everywhere.At this time, what can be called ancient is at least the Spring and Autumn Period or the early Warring States Period.

"Lead the way ahead!" Ziying ordered impatiently.

The school captain immediately brought Ziying and Wang Jian to the excavated stone tablet.

It seemed that they knew that the two of them were coming, and the soldiers had already cleaned the stele with clean water, clearly revealing the twelve large characters engraved on it.

Wang Jian's eyes straightened when he saw it. It wasn't that the content of the stele was so shocking, but that he didn't know what the twelve characters actually said.

The sergeants reported to themselves because they didn't understand the above content, and they came here with great fanfare. It was somewhat embarrassing for them to say words they didn't understand in front of so many soldiers of the Qin army who were full of admiration.

"Mr. Chang'an, do you know what characters are written on the stele?" Wang Jian asked casually.

Although he asked Ziying, Wang Jian didn't have any hope that Ziying could understand these twelve characters. He just asked a polite casual question.

I can also say that I come from a rich family, and I have learned a lot. When Chang'an Jun lived in Zhao, I heard that he didn't even have a famous teacher. It's just that he is very smart. I don't know this. I haven't received it since I was a child." Mr. Chang'an who has no formal education" certainly doesn't know him either.

Ziying squatted down slowly, stroked the twelve big characters and said slowly: "If there are tin soldiers, the world will fight; if Wuxi Ning, the world will be clean."

"The word Chang'an knows?" Wang Jian asked with wide-eyed eyes. Ziying's reading of the words on the stele surprised Wang Jian.

"I know a little bit." Ziying nodded and said softly: "This is the script of the Zhou Dynasty. After King Ping moved to the east, the rites and music collapsed and the countries were so simple and concise. It is natural for the soldiers not to recognize it."

You must know that Ziying's learning is much more complicated than that of Wang Jian. In the past, Gai Nie, a giant of the previous generation, was a pedantic generation of heaven and man.

And Ziying, who had studied with Gai Nie for several years, learned a lot of Gai Nie's whole body, and even Gai Nie felt that there was nothing to teach Ziying with his amazing comprehension ability.

Ziying naturally recognized the mere pre-Zhou characters after a quick glance.
