Chapter 2 Falling fire from the sky(1/2)

The stars are dotted high in the sky, flickering in the dark darkness, staring at the eternal earth.

In the darkness, the seven kingdoms above the Central Plains are no different, and there is no way to tell who is the hegemon.

Only the flowing waters of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River are still shining with silver light, recording endless years.

Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period.

This is the most unique era in history. The system of rituals and music established by Zhou Gongdan in the Zhou Dynasty gradually began to collapse.

A hundred schools of thought contend, and the princes compete for the deer.

This is a world of great struggle, and everyone with blood and energy has a heart of struggle.

Every genre and country are constantly competing, trying to make themselves the dominant part of the times.

However, for those at the bottom of the people who lived in dire straits at that time, this was an eternal night era where there was no hope.

Hundreds of years of uninterrupted war have made everyone tired.

Everyone is looking forward to someone who can end this troubled times.

The Western Qin is the most hopeful vassal state that can do this now. Its power to swallow the tigers and wolves around the world has begun to show its might.

In the past, King Zhaoxiang of Qin had a long and close attack, and attacked far and wide. He strengthened the rule of Bashu, destroyed Yiqu, and eliminated the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Later, the battle of Changping completely damaged the vitality of Zhao State, and the world was staring at him.

Although the late Xinlingjun of Wei State defeated the Qin army in a row, he still did not hurt the Qin army. It was still the most likely Western Qin in this world to swallow the world.

At this time, under the night, the lights were swaying in the imperial capital of Handan, Zhao State in the east of the Western Qin Dynasty.

The servants of King Zhao slowly stepped forward in the candlelight and unfolded the map of Yan and Zhao for King Zhao Dan.

In the hall, King Zhao was in the upper position, and underneath were Lian Po and Le Cheng, two loyal ministers of Zhao State.

After the Battle of Changping, Zhao State was severely injured and fell from the strongest ranks of the Warring States Period.

And in this era, weakness is original sin.

Yan State, on the northeast side of Zhao State, was soon ready to move, and now he was preparing to get a share of the pie when Zhao State was weak.

So, when King Zhao learned about it, he immediately summoned two loyal ministers.

"Although the tiger is in the evening, it is not a cow or a horse that can be defeated. The King of Yan bullies Zhao, so he should be a great disaster."

Le Cheng saw that King Zhao showed pain and spoke and asserted.

Le Cheng is not an unknown person. He and Le Yi, who are in the same clan as more than 70 cities in Qi State, are descendants of the famous general Le Yang.

King Zhao, who stopped smiling after the Battle of Changping, heard this, his wrinkled face relaxed a little, and then turned to look at Lian Po.

"You are talking about the heart of the Lord, but this time the King of Yan dispatched two armies and two thousand chariots to attack Zhao, allowing Li Bao to lead his army to attack Zhengcheng, and Qing Qin led his army to attack Daidi. It should not be underestimated. From the perspective of the general, how can he fight against the enemy?"

Lian Po was fifty years old at this time, but he was still burly and had pure black hair. He stepped forward and walked:

"Report to the king, although Zhao State is strong, the battle in Changping is like a deficit of blood. This battle should not last long. The battle should be decided quickly. I secretly think that Le Cheng attacks Qing Qin, and I will lead the troops to attack Li's belly, and take 130,000 troops and 80,000 troops and 50,000 troops to decide in one battle."

Zhao Dan, the old-fashioned King of Zhao, looked embarrassed.

If the 130,000 soldiers were sold before the Battle of Changping, Zhao could take it out casually.

But now after the Battle of Changping, the Zhao State, which was suffering from great energy, had to grit its teeth to take it out even if it had 130,000 soldiers.

King Zhao hesitated, he looked at Lian Po and said:

"How sure are you?"

At this point, a sudden change occurred.

As soon as King Zhao spoke, he suddenly made a red light outside the hall where the candlelight was swaying.

Red lights shot into the palace from outside the vermilion wooden window.

It was like a fiery red sun appeared in front of the palace gate.

The people in the hall, which were thorning red lights, could not open their eyes.

But this is the Zhao Kingdom Palace. Who dares to do this outside the palace?

King Zhao covered his face with his long sleeves and said in surprise:

"What's going on outside the hall?"

Lian Po and Le Cheng both sat up in shock. If they hadn't had a sword in their hands, they would probably have drawn the sword and stood up at this moment.

"Report to the king, fire fell from the sky outside the palace!"

A response from the slave of Zhao Wang was heard outside the hall.

"River Fire?"

When Zhao Dan heard this, he frowned with silver-wisted eyebrows. He looked at Lian Po and his ministers, and their eyes were full of doubts.

Then King Zhao put down his long sleeves and strode out of the hall.

Lian Po and Le Cheng followed King Zhao.

The three of them walked out of the hall. Outside the palace, the night sky covered with stars had turned into a thick red color.

The flowing fire dyed the night sky above the entire Central Plains red, like endless flames igniting.

The red fire penetrated the sky, making a terrifying roar, like the roar of God.

The whole sky seemed to collapse, and a red circular sun fell from the sky in the center of the sky.

The sky hangs and the sun falls, but that's it.

The entire Central Plains was trembling under this terrifying celestial phenomenon.

"Is this... the wrath of heaven?"

King Zhao suddenly couldn't speak, even though he was under the majestic scenery of the world, he could not speak for a long time.

Lian Po and Le Cheng behind him were also stunned.

Even though Lian Po has experienced many battles, he is still a mortal under the sky.

He stared blankly at the red vision that was like the falling sun.

However, the fire in the night sky did not stop at all because of the eyes of the world.

It crossed the sky above Handan City in the night sky, leaving a long-lasting tail mark.

It was like opening the sky.

"Is this the fire?"

After the fire passed, King Zhao slowly let out a breath.

"This is the power of heaven."

Le Cheng said blankly.

Before several people could react again, the earth suddenly started to tremble.

"Boom!"

Outside the city of Handan, Zhao State, fire flowed down from the nine heavens.

It hit the ground hard.

The earth trembled, and the smoke and dust were pouring.

A mushroom cloud soared into the sky, like a wild beast released in the darkness, and instantly enveloped the entire Handan City in dust.

The sleeping man in Handan immediately woke up from his sleep.

"what happened?"

"Has anyone attacked the city?"

"Did the Earth Dragon turn over?"

……………………

In panic, all the people in Handan walked out of the house.

However, dust covered the sky, and under the night, a red light seemed to be constantly jumping across the entire city of Handan.

It seems to be a god, but also seems to be a ghost fire in the underworld.

It is difficult to see its appearance.

At this time, Zhao Zheng, who was only ten years old in the room, was also awakened by the earthquake.

Looking at the fire outside the window soaring into the sky, the young man who was abandoned in Zhao State as soon as he was born, a hint of panic appeared on his handsome face.

Could it be that someone has attacked the city?

Zhao Zheng rubbed his eyes and sat up, lifted up the oil lamp, and then got up and opened the door.

He walked outside the house to see what was going on.

However, when he walked out, in the courtyard outside the house, he saw a scene that was completely beyond his imagination.

A man bathed in flames stood on the ground, and the mist and smoke turned into red and decorated with a background.
To be continued...
