Daqin: Yi Xiaochuan Was Pitted at the Beginning

Chapter 160

　　Yangcheng.

　　"I heard that the Wuhu Alliance is attacking Daqin. I don't know what is going on now? I also heard that the times have changed. As long as you can read mathematics, physics and chemistry, you can become an official. If one day, I will become an official..."

　　In a paddy field, Chen Sheng opened a canal to divert water and said.

　　These days, the continuous rain has accumulated a lot of rain in the farmland.

　　If you don't drive the excess water away, it will - flood the rice.

　　The submerged rice will sprout, and the rice that is about to be harvested will be finished.

　　So they had to brave the heavy rain to clear the fields.

　　But this kind of work is tiring and boring, so I found a topic and said.

　　"What do you care about? You're just a farmer. Even if math, physics and chemistry can make you an official, do you have the money to buy books?"

　　"Yeah! I heard that the bookstore in the county seat sells it. That's the price. Don't mention it, it's too expensive."

　　"They are all profiteers. I heard that in Xianyang, this book is a hundred times cheaper than here, who can afford to buy it!"

　　"That's right, I'm just some poor people, and I don't have enough food and clothing. Where can I get the money!"

　　"That's right, Chen Sheng! I don't think you should be dreaming about it. You're still studying and being an official! And the war in the north! Is that something you should be concerned about?"

　　"Now that the corvée is cancelled, the world is finally settled, you can stop for a while!"

　　"That's right, take care of your stomach first! Let's talk when you're full."

　　"Hahaha!"

　　……

　　Hearing Chen Sheng's words, the surrounding farmers all laughed.

　　They are born farmers, grow up to be farmers, and grow old to be farmers.

　　In the village, they have not heard of anyone who can go out and be an official.

　　Those three subjects gave them hope, but when the book got here, the price has doubled hundreds of times. Isn't it still possible for the rich to have books to read?

　　It was a problem for them to even get enough to eat. Chen Sheng was still thinking about studying and becoming an official, and going to the northern battlefield, hehe!

　　Many people laughed at him.

　　"Humph! Yan Que knows the ambition of Honghu!"

　　Hearing the ridicule of those people, Chen Sheng not only did not get discouraged, but straightened his back and snorted coldly.

　　Of course, not all of these people were laughing at Chen Sheng, so Wu Guang looked at Chen Sheng in surprise.

　　Listening to Chen Sheng's words, I feel quite cultural.

　　"Boom!"

　　Just when the people here were laughing at Chen Sheng, Chen Sheng, who stood up straight, was suddenly stunned.

· · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·???????????

　　Because he saw that something was coming from afar.

　　"Look, what is that?"

　　Chen Sheng shouted loudly.

　　"What, what else is there in this heavy rain?"

　　Those around him ignored him, thinking he was changing the subject after being laughed at.

　　"Damn it, that's right, it's broken!"

　　The moment Wu Guang looked up and saw the huge water waves in the distance, he was stunned.

...... 0

　　He had seen this before when he was dealing with floods, and it was definitely not wrong with the flood.

　　"Escape! The estuary burst!"

　　Chen Sheng also heard Wu Guang say this, and he was shocked and shouted loudly.

　　Say this and run to the heights.

　　The others reacted and ran to the high ground one after another.

　　"Boom!"

　　This period of time was originally the rainy season, but now the estuary bursts its banks again, which is amazing, like a giant beast that has been bound for a long time, surging and unstoppable.

　　"Woo! Food, food is gone!"

　　"What should I do! Seeing that the autumn harvest is just about to happen, this kind of thing will happen!"

　　……

　　When they got to the high ground, everyone knelt on the ground and cried as the flood washed away the farmland.deficit.

Chapter 161

　　Xianyang.

　　"Something is bad!"

　　An eunuch quickly went to the inner palace, not caring that his body was soaked in the rain, and continued to run to the inner palace.

　　"In the middle of the night, what are you doing in a hurry? Who else in the north is calling?"

　　Qin Shihuang got up from the dragon and shouted with dissatisfaction.

　　Xiao Han had a great victory over the Rong, Di and Xiongnu. In the past few months, the worries of the Northern Wuhu Alliance had just disappeared, and he had just been able to sleep well.

　 　At this moment, someone hurriedly woke him up in the middle of the night, saying that something was wrong, and he thought that another country in the north was calling him again.

　　"No! Your Majesty."

　　"Eight hundred miles urgent report, major counties have flooded, flooding countless farmlands!"

　　The eunuch said almost tremblingly.

　　This matter is too big, big enough to shake the foundation of the entire Great Qin.

　　Naturally, he didn't dare to hide such a major event, so he came to report it as soon as possible.

　　"What!? This, this is impossible, didn't the widow build a lot of dams?"

　　Qin Shihuang stood up suddenly, with a look of shock and disbelief on his face, and angrily raised the eunuch's collar.

　　"Your Majesty, for some reason, the flood control fortifications built in various places collapsed at the same time, and now the lower reaches of the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers are surrounded by swamps."

　　The eunuch was almost scared to death by Qin Shihuang's collar, and quickly explained.

　　"The dam collapsed almost at the same time? Could it be that the sky will kill me... poof!"

　　When Qin Shihuang heard the news, his mind roared, his body trembled, and he even spit out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

　　The river embankment that has been repaired for so many years has now been completely washed away by a single rain. Is this really going to kill Qin?

　　……

　　On the Daqin side, it was pouring rain, but on the far northwest side of Xiao Han, there was no drizzle at all.

　　After many days of repairs, the matter of Wangcheng and the Xiongnu was almost resolved, and Xiao Han and Meng Tian also began to prepare for their return to the dynasty.

　　"Xianyang urgent report, [-] urgent, get out of the way, get out of the way!"

　　It was at this time that several fast horses came to the barracks crying, and the eunuch at the head shouted loudly while riding the horses.

　　Hearing that it was an urgent report from Xianyang, the soldiers let them go immediately, daring not to delay.

　　"Your Majesty's decree, Meng Yi, Meng Tian accepts the decree!"

　　The headed eunuch took out a scroll of imperial edicts and said.

　　"Chen, Meng Yi!"

　　"Chen, Meng Tian!"

　　"Accept the order!"

　　When Xiao Han and Meng Tian heard that Xianyang was coming, they didn't dare to delay. They quickly walked out of the military tent and knelt down to receive the order...  

　　"Fengtian, the emperor's edict said: It rained for several days in various places, and most of the major cities across the country burst their embankments in a few days, resulting in the flooding of countless fertile fields and the displacement of the people."

　　"Specially recruited Meng Yi to lead 15 troops to return to Xianyang immediately, and Meng Tian to lead the army to continue guarding the Great Wall, I appreciate this!"

　　The person who came did not hesitate, and immediately read the edict.

　　The moment Meng Tian heard the news, he was stunned. What the heck was going on? Major cities all over the country burst their dykes in a few days?

　　Damn, how could there be any coincidence?

　　To say that there was no conspiracy, he wouldn't believe it if he was killed.

　　This is not scientific!

　　Not to mention Meng Tian's doubts, Xiao Han was also puzzled.

　　But they weren't there for this matter, and they didn't know what happened on Daqin's side.

　　But since even Qin Shihuang asked him to lead his troops back, there is no doubt that something big must have happened.

　　"Meng Yi, Meng Tian still doesn't lead the way?"

　　The eunuch saw that Xiao Han and Meng Tian were stunned, and quickly reminded.

　　"Yes! The minister waits for the order!".
