Under the supervision of Fusu's army, the defenders of Beidi County formed a neat team and asked them to count.

Meng Tian on the other side has also obtained the number of casualties on his side. Of the 1,000 people who entered the city, only 300 were intact. Five hundred were dead, and another 200 were lightly or seriously injured. Behind them

Although the reinforcements took over the entire battlefield as soon as they arrived, thousands of people lost their lives, but compared to the cost of storming the northern city, these casualties were already very small.

"Kill the enemy by one thousand and lose eight hundred by yourself, hey." Fusu felt very sad when he saw the number of casualties in the army, but he knew that the war was indispensable to gain peace, and this time was just a small beginning.

The battles in the future will be even more brutal.

"Prince, General, there were originally 8,000 defenders in Beidi City, but now 2,500 have been killed by our army, and more than 5,000 others have surrendered." A soldier came up and reported.

Fusu nodded and said: "Okay, you have to treat them well. After all, they are also our warriors of the Qin Dynasty. They are just obeying the orders from above." After changing his mind, he added, "You can also tell them that if you don't want to, you can tell them.

For those who join our army, I can let them go back, but I won't allow them to work for Hu Hai anymore. Go ahead!" The man agreed and went to deliver the order.

"Does the prince have any intention in doing this?" Meng Tian looked at Fusu and asked.

"Compared to the imperial court, we are still just a tiny place. Now I want to unite more people, and at the same time, I cannot make too many mortal enemies. If we are too strict with these defenders, future enemies will not dare to surrender. As for letting them leave,

It is to let people know that we have won a great victory."

"The prince is getting closer and closer to becoming a true leader." Meng Tian thought.

"The aftermath work here will be left to General Meng. I have to rush back to Shangjun. After all, that is our rear area." Fusu said.

"Okay, then the prince should bring two thousand cavalry back to Shangjun. I think Hu Hai and others may send people from both directions to attack us after getting the news. Then we will be facing enemies on both sides."

Fusu came to Zaiji's carriage and opened the door curtain. He saw Zaiji shivering and huddled aside. He couldn't help laughing and said: "Master Zai is also a person who has experienced strong winds and waves in Xianyang, but he is still afraid of these thousands of people."

The battle?”

When Zaiji noticed that someone had opened the door curtain, he jumped up from the seat and let out a scream. It was not until he saw clearly that the person who came was Fusu that he breathed a sigh of relief and said tremblingly: "Little man... it's just that

The steward in the palace, not the general leading the army, was of course frightened when he saw such a scene."

Fusu smiled secretly and then said: "Okay, the battle is over. I am here to ask you whether you want to go back to Xianyang or follow me back to Shangjun."

Zaiji knew that following Fusu back to Xianyang would be tantamount to betraying Zhao Gao, and his family would all die at the hands of Zhao Gao. However, if he returned to Xianyang, he was not sure whether Zhao Gao would kill him.

After all, without his own help, Fusu and the others would not have been able to take down Beidi County so easily. At this moment, he was very conflicted and didn't know what to do.

The way Fusu looked at him could tell that he was hesitant and did not force him: "Let's just stay here while I go back to Shangjun." After saying that, he led the cavalry out of the city, leaving only one person who was still there.

Zaiji hesitated.

When Fusu rushed back to Shangjun, it was already autumn, and the weather was no longer as hot as the previous days. Looking at the wheat outside Shangjun City that was about to reach the harvest period, Fusu's eyes showed a happy smile. He had to

I was grateful to Li Heng. If it weren't for him, I would never have thought of asking sergeants to farm and clear up wasteland. When Li Heng told him that once he and Hu Hai competed for the world, there would be a shortage of grain and grass shipped from all over the country. He was at a loss, but Li Heng helped him

He solved this big problem, and now Shangjun has enough food to eat. Not only does he have the food he grew himself, but he also has the food stored by the court a few days ago, which is enough to feed the army for the first half of the year.

With a delighted smile, Fusu entered the city, only to see Li Heng and the generals guarding the city waiting to greet him at the city gate.

"The prince has won the first battle, and we are here to greet you." Everyone said in unison.

Fusu hurriedly jumped off his horse and walked up to the crowd and said: "This battle is the result of everyone's collective efforts. The brave soldiers killed the enemy, Mr. Li's strategy and General Meng's command. What contribution can I, Fusu, have? Since

Everyone is so happy, let’s have a celebration banquet today.”

Surrounded by everyone, Fusu returned to his hotel.

Another sleepless night of joy.

Early the next morning, Fusu called Li Heng to his hotel.

"Mr. Li, now that we have captured a county, how should we deal with Hu Hai's counterattack next?"

"This great victory will definitely make Hu Hai furious, and he will definitely send a large army to encircle and suppress us. On one side of Shangjun is Taiyuan County, and Beidi County is not far from Xianyang. I'm afraid they will order people to attack from two directions, and use us

Our troops can only annihilate one of the troops, so it depends on how the prince calculates."

"Actually, sir, you should have already had an idea." Fusu said with a smile, "Shangjun has enough soldiers and abundant food and grass to defend him for half a year. However, Beidi County is new. We have not established a stable footing and it is not suitable to defend it.

, so we will kill the enemy on the north side without leaving a single piece of armor behind. When the soldiers and horses over there are victorious, my enemies in Shangjun will naturally not be able to attack them."

"I didn't expect the prince to reveal my plan right away. Besides, we can also have some other methods."

"what way?"

"To attack the enemy's heart is the most important thing. We can order people to spread the word that the prince is the real emperor of Qin. At the same time, we will inform the world about Hu Hai's crime of killing his father and brother, so that everyone in the world will know that his throne was obtained improperly. Where can we go?"

Then someone will surrender to us."

"Well, this is a good idea. I will also ask Wu Lin and others in Xianyang to spread the news in Xianyang City. I will make Hu Hai panic." After hearing Li Heng's attack, Fusu immediately

Thinking about modern public opinion, although public opinion during the Qin Dynasty had no binding effect on those in power, if rumors spread in the capital early that the emperor's position was improper, their morale would indeed be greatly affected.

The two discussed the details of how to spread the news before finally coming up with the best plan.

"Prince, a group of people came to the hotel and said they wanted to see the prince?" a guard came in and said.

"Who are they?" Fusu asked strangely. He still didn't believe that someone was coming to help him conquer the world right now.

"They claim to be from Xianyang and are the family members of Prime Minister Li Si."

"Li Si's family members? Invite them quickly! No, I will personally welcome them in." Fusu hurriedly got up from the seat and walked out. He knew that since Li Si really sent his relatives to him, it meant that

He is completely on his side.

"What? Not only did Fusu not die, but he also led his army to capture Beidi County?" Hu Hai slapped the dragon case and stood up from the throne, shouting with blazing anger in his eyes.

"Yes...yes." A chambermaid replied cautiously.

"It's really unreasonable. He doesn't even pay attention to the imperial edict and dares to disobey it!" Hu Hai angrily kicked Long An to the ground, and the bamboo slips on it were scattered on the ground. The chamberlain next to him hurriedly came to clean it up, but he was

Kicked to the ground: "Get out of here, get out of here!"

The servants retreated one after another. They did not dare to offend the new emperor, who was even more violent than Qin Shihuang. In his eyes, the lives of these people were worth less than an ant.

"Wait a minute," Hu Hai came to his senses after venting for a while, "go and call Zhao Gao." Then he kept walking back and forth in the hall. He knew that as Fusu, someone else was trying to snatch his throne.

It was a normal phenomenon in his eyes, so he was a little scared.

When Zhao Gao came in, he saw Hu Hai's anxious look and cursed him as a waste in his heart. But on his face, he still pretended to be very concerned and said: "What's the matter with the emperor? Why are you so uneasy?"

"Fusu is not dead and has raised an army. How can I feel at ease?" Hu Hai stared at Zhao Gaodao fiercely, as if he was Fusu.

"Now Fusu only has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, why should the emperor take him seriously?" Zhao Gao said lightly, "As long as my court sends a large army to conquer, he can be killed in a few months.

place."

"Does Mr. Zhao already have a plan?" Hu Hai's face showed joy.

"Don't worry, even if we don't send troops, as long as we don't deliver food to Shangjun, his soldiers will kill him because there is no food to eat."

"It's so good, it's so good." Hu Hai finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Emperor, I'm sorry, there are a lot of news like this posted in Xianyang City." A chamberlain ran in quickly, holding a roll of white and slightly yellow cloth in his hand. He accidentally tripped under his feet and fell directly.

He fell down in front of Hu Hai.

"What are you making such a fuss about?" Hu Hai took the cloth he handed over and saw that it read: "Fusu, the eldest son of the First Emperor, told the officials and people in Xianyang: Today there is Hu Hai who killed his father and his brother in order to steal the throne, and he is even more cruel.

, harming innocent people, I couldn’t bear to see our Da Qin foundation destroyed by his hands, and the people suffering from his abuse, so I raised my troops to put down the rebellion. I hope that everyone will regard our Da Qin State and the people as the most important thing, abandon the dark side and surrender to the bright side, and kill Hu Hai." It is also listed later.

Hu Hai's dozens of major crimes. Hu Hai was already livid with anger after just reading the previous paragraph. Although he had tampered with Qin Shihuang's edict, he believed that he had not killed Qin Shihuang, so he was even more angry. He waved his hands and killed the emperor.

He smashed the cloth and shouted: "Find out the identity of the person who spread this news, I will smash his car into pieces! Zhao Gao, quickly order people to kill Fusu!"
