Chapter 287
Of course, the places he has been to will often undergo storm-like dramatic changes, just like Luoyang before and Jiangdong now.
Ying Gao believed that these two places were already very representative. The problem in Luoyang was hidden under the prosperity of a faction. He would let these local officials of the Qin Dynasty know that it was not that you would look beautiful and that it would be fine if you made your county look beautiful. You could disobey the things that the emperor told you that were not easy to deal with.
If the Emperor of Daqin personally seized the blame, the consequences would be to go to Shangjun or some other place to build the Great Wall or other fortifications.
Of course, this time when Shouchun repairing warships is a good place for those fallen officials in this era.
The achievements made through this trip to Jiangdong, Ying Gao was equivalent to announcing to the entire Qin Dynasty and even the ambitions of foreign races around the Qin Dynasty that my territory of Qin, if it is occupied by others, then nothing else, I just want to take action myself until I kill you...
For an emperor, it was definitely a thankless and risky matter, but Ying Gao didn't think so. In his heart, this was an excellent opportunity to demonstrate the power of the young emperor, which was not very well known to many leaders of the Qin Dynasty, the Xiongnu, and the Donghu.
Ying Gao believed that when he defeated Xiang Yu this time and took back all the land of Jiangdong and spread all the news of the Great Qin to the Huns, the newly promoted Xiongnu Shanyu Maodun would first consider his own weight, and then think about whether he could inherit his father's will and take the Huns' cavalry to the Great Qin's Great Qin's Great Wall.
Of course, the territory of the Qin Dynasty is still very large. In addition to Luoyang and Jiangdong, there are still many problems. Ying Gao knew that he would not only go on a tour five times like the First Emperor, but now it is time for him to take a break. There are still things that are old and young in the Xianyang Palace waiting for him to do. Moreover, Ying Gao knew that Xiao He had probably been looking forward to going back.
In fact, Ying Gao knew in his heart that the best candidate to control Jiangdong may not be Chen Ying, but Han Xin, who had just personally captured Jiangdong.
But Jiangdong is undoubtedly a place to tie people up, and Han Xin is a person who can't stay idle. More importantly, Ying Gao knew that it might take less than a year or two to use Han Xin on a battlefield where he didn't know where.
So Han Xin must keep him with him. If there is a battle that Zhang Han and Sima Xin cannot solve, he will still have to use Han Xin, a big killing weapon.
Moreover, Ying Gao knew in his heart that Han Xin was still a little too young now, and he had already made some contributions under his own hands that others could not make. Once he was allowed to take power alone in one place, even Ying Gao could not guess how much his mentality could expand.
The reason why talents like Han Xin ended up tragically in his old age and died in the shackles of his contributions was actually nothing more than a change in his own mentality.
Liu Bang used him more than he could not pacify the world and defeat Xiang Yu. But when he found that he was old and almost lost, he realized that he might not be able to control him after his death, so the only way was to kill him?
These ideas were already thought of when Ying Gao transferred Han Xin from the south, but this time he wanted to achieve a real purging of Jiangdong without bloodshed. Without Han Xin, it would be impossible.
As for whether he can't control Han Xin in the future, Ying Gao will not be as cowardly as that old boy Liu Bang. He can control Han Xin by finding him out. If he doesn't have this ability and confidence, what emperor can he become?
After deciding to the position of county magistrates of Kuaiji County and Jiujiang County, Ying Gao only rested in Shouchun for two days and then began to prepare to return to Xianyang with the remaining generals and soldiers.
And in the past two days, Ying Gao learned another news that made him a little unhappy.
According to some descriptions of the surrendered soldiers in Jiangdong, as early as after Xiang Yu led the Jiangdong army to capture Wang Li, an anti-Qin leader from Pei County, Sishui County, instigated the eight thousand soldiers in the Pioneer Camp to rebel, and then took advantage of the heavy fog and went where they went.
As soon as this news came to Ying Gao's ears, Ying Gao knew that although Liu Bang, the old boy, had no two think tanks, Xiao He and Cao Shen, his judgment on the situation was still quite sharp.
When Ying Gao heard the word Pioneer Camp, he knew without asking that anti-Qin forces like Liu Bang who were not from Jiangdong would be raised by Xiang Yu when they really wanted to fight. They would be raised by Xiang Yu's stepmother. If they died, they would die. If they didn't die, there would be no few left in the end. If there was really no one in their hands, wouldn't it be okay if Xiang Yu fiddled with it?
So when the war had just ended and there were still some troops left in the Pioneer Camp, it was undoubtedly the best time for Liu Bang to escape.
Moreover, Ying Gao also knew that the reason why Liu Bang ran away with eight thousand people shows that this guy is confident that he can do something on the land of the Qin Dynasty as a leader. After all, Xiang Yu is now carrying 10,000 people and horses.
"Xiang Yu, Liu Bang... I want to see what kind of flowers you can find in my Great Qin..."
Ying Gao sat in the wide carriage, looking back through the window in the carriage, looking at the river water that was getting farther and farther away from him, knowing that he would not come back in this place within a year or two.
However, Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, the two people they care about, were still unable to die at their own hands during this encirclement.
Ying Gao had long been thinking about this result. After all, he was just an emperor who set a general direction. With his current status, he could not ride a horse and stare at whether Xiang Yu wanted to escape. He was also the leader of this era. He also had a talented man around him who could not stand the same as you, the Three Dukes of the Great Qin. Why did you have to catch him as soon as you arrived?
He came to this world in real life, rather than playing games in front of the computer in his previous life. Ying Gao had already realized this, so he knew that everything was urgent. For example, Liu Bang, it would be very difficult to find him, so it would be better to wait in the Xianyang Palace comfortably...
When Ying Gao led the remaining less than 100,000 troops to Xianyang after joining forces with Han Xin, a group of people rested in a dense forest in Minzhong County, which was almost at the border southeast of the Qin Dynasty.
Several people sat around a huge fire. On the fire were several huge beasts. One of them had no idea how many holes had his clothes broken. His beard was almost on his chest and it was a lot white, but it was still difficult to hide the gleam in his eyes.
Not far away in front of him was a young sergeant. He said he was a sergeant, but because he was holding a short blade in his hand, the rest of his outfit was no different from the Guizhou heads in the south of the Qin Dynasty.
"What is the result of the Battle of Jiujiang? Tell me quickly!"
The white-bearded guy is not Liu Bang, who is nearly fifty years old. This is the first time he has waited for the news brought by the scout who stayed in Jiujiang County. After this period of escape, the eight thousand soldiers Liu Bang brought out from Xiang Yu's Pioneer Camp is now less than seven thousand left.
Because they didn't know much about the terrain and climate in the south, they were bitten to death by poisonous snakes, and those who died of illness after being wet in the rain, and those who had no food to starve to death. That was really a lot. And in this Fujian where people were scarce, there were more foods to eat around them, so Liu Bang was relieved.
Otherwise, he would have been afraid that he would not have been eliminated by the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, Xiang Yu's soldiers, but eventually died under the destruction of nature...
"Xiang Yu was hit by the Qin army's plan, and Qin general Han Xin appeared behind Xiang Yu's army from somewhere and seized Xiang Yu's warship. In the end, the Jiangdong soldiers were unable to cross the river, and tens of thousands of people were killed in battle. However, Xiang Yu and many of his generals were rumored to have escaped from the Qin army's encirclement and blockade with tens of thousands of Jiangdong elites, but I don't know where they were going at this time..."
"Xiang Yu was defeated?"
Obviously, Liu Bang was still a little surprised by this news. What talents were there under Xiang Yu's men, and Liu Bang naturally knew a little. Although he also had Fan Kuai, Lu Wan, Cao Wushang and others under his command, Liu Bang knew in his heart that there was still a lack of people who could really plan and win a thousand miles.
Just like Fan Zeng and Zhang Liang under Xiang Yu's command, Liu Bang believed that if he had two people, he could find a place to be prosperous even with the thousands of people now.
And in his opinion, Xiang Yu, who had the advantage of time, place and people, was killed so quickly by the young emperor who had ascended the throne of the Qin Dynasty, and ended up with an ending similar to his own. How could he not be surprised?
"This guy was defeated! If he hadn't treated us, those who were not Jiangdong, how could Pei Gong rebel? Without Pei Gong, how could this guy succeed?"
Although Fan Kuai was not very educated, he couldn't listen to Liu Bang's words as good as others. At that time, he took advantage of Xiang Yu. Of course, it was through his own mouth. These guys under Liu Bang had great ability. Let's not talk about it for now. Even the skills in his mouth were really great. I don't know if they had obtained Liu Bang's true teachings.
"It is really a great blessing for us to escape..."
Liu Bang stared at the boar that was about to cook on the fire, as if his attention was all on the boar, but the strange smile on the corner of his mouth was not very similar to what he wanted to eat delicious food.
Obviously, in addition to the fragrant mountain pork meat, Liu Bang also had a lot of other things in his heart, but only he knew some of them so far.
The result of this battle not only made Liu Bang, who is now fleeing in a hurry, but when Ying Gao slowly returned to Xianyang City, the result of this battle had already reached the Great Wall and beyond the Great Wall.
The Huns were still the Huns on horseback, but the Huns' Khan was different from before.
The young Maodun indeed brought a lot of different things to the Huns, but not all his tribe members could understand some of his arrangements over the past few months.
Just like when the news of the Qin Dynasty quelling civil strife reached Maodun's tent, he was discussing a big matter with several generals under his command.
The powerful neighbors of the Huns were not only Daqin, but Donghu. Although to Daqin, they were just a foreign race like the Huns, they were not much different from the Qin people in the eyes of the Huns.
When the king of Donghu learned that Touman Chanyu had died in a hunting force, his prince Maodun, who was just over twenties, inherited the throne of the Xiongnu Chanyu, he sent an envoy.
After the envoy arrived, he verbally congratulated Maodun, and said that the king of Donghu was very interested in the war horse that Touman Shanyu had ridden before. Now the Touman Shanyu is gone, and the war horse is idle, so it is better to give it to Donghu.
As soon as he said this, the Hun generals under Maodun could not suppress the fire, and almost killed the Donghu envoy to death.
But Maodun spoke at this time, not only scolding all his rude generals, but also leading the horse out and handing it over to the Donghu envoy.
After this incident, the tribesmen's opinions were really big, but Maodun only said one sentence, just wait and see the result. If I can't fulfill my promise, I will let the virtuous.
Now, just a few months after this storm, the previous Donghu envoy is here again.
This time, the people still expressed their respect for Maodun verbally, but the request made this time almost killed him by a group of generals of the Huns.
People said that the King of Donghu had heard that the Yan family, who Maodun had just married a few days ago, were all the best beauties in the Huns. I would like to ask if Maodun could give it to the King of Donghu.
Maodun actually agreed directly about this matter, and at this moment, it was when his generals were persuading him.
"Did the Emperor of the Qin Dynasty defeat the largest rebel force in the territory?"
"Yes, the new emperor of the Qin Dynasty is really a bit bloody. His father, the First Emperor, never personally faced rebellion, but he led his army to Jiangdong and defeated the rebels. But for me, the Huns..."
"It may not be a bad thing... quickly send my sage to the Donghu envoy! Let's talk about other things."
