Chapter 344 Good News

It was already winter, and the temperature in Xianyang City was getting colder and colder, and fewer people came out of the city. However, the Qin army who daily patrolled to maintain the safety of the capital did not dare to be negligent. When they walked through the main street in the middle of the city,

, they saw a fast horse running straight towards the palace. The strong wind stirred up when the horse passed by them also blew their clothes. Several Qin soldiers hurriedly hid aside, watching this

The knights on horseback dared to gallop in Xianyang City, and they looked like they were in military uniforms. They knew that they were scouts from the northern border bringing news about the enemy Huns. They had seen too many such people. Although it was prohibited in Xianyang City

Ordinary people can gallop as fast as they want, but those with urgent military affairs are not among them.

The knight came all the way to the gate of the palace, dismounted and handed a scroll of silk and a copper token to the soldiers who were guarding there: "Important news has come from the north. I hope some adults can hand this over."

Go in and present it to the emperor."

After those people saw the token, they already knew the identity of the visitor. Someone led him to rest aside, while someone else held the silk book and went inside. The scout who had sent the message could not leave yet.

Who knows if the emperor will let him enter the palace to inquire about the news after reading it.

At this time, Fusu didn't care about the situation in the north, because he had learned about the great victory in Lanshi City, the capital of the Yuezhi, not long ago. He thought that after such a heavy blow to the Huns, they would not be able to attack the grassland again in a short time.

What damage did the Qin army inflict? In addition to the gratitude of the Yuezhi people, what was sent with this good news was Zhang Han's request to allow the army to temporarily return to the border town. Because the climate on the grassland has now deteriorated.

It is getting worse and worse, and it has been snowing for a long time. The Qin army cannot adapt to the environment there, and wants to return to a city such as Yunzhong to rest and wait until next spring when the flowers bloom again to launch a new attack on the grassland.

Now that he had achieved a great victory, Fusu certainly would not reject this request, and being on the grassland in winter was indeed unbearable, so he immediately issued an order and ordered Zhang Han to lead all the Qin troops on the grassland.

Return to the border city to recuperate and wait for the coming year. Now these Qin troops should have returned to the Central Plains, and of course there will be no problems. So during this period, Fusu is only concerned about the stability of the people in each county.

After this winter, I no longer care about border issues.

So when Fusu received this silk letter, he was very puzzled. Since it was a letter sent from the border, Fusu naturally had to read it first. After reading half of it, Fusu couldn't help but reveal it on his face.

With a smile, he put the letter on a few tables, and then said loudly: "Come here, go quickly and summon the Prime Minister Chen, Master Zhang, General Han, General Meng and others to the palace with me. Tell me what I want."

Talk to them about things."

Those chamberlains had long been accustomed to the emperor calling the four people into the palace whenever something happened, so they hurriedly agreed and left. In less than half an hour, the four people hurried into the palace, and the four of them faced each other.

Everyone was still a little confused, wondering why the emperor suddenly asked him to enter the palace. After seeing the four people come in, Fusu smiled and said: "You must not know why I asked you to wait to enter today.

Come on, I actually have a great thing to announce." As he spoke, he suppressed his excitement and said, "The Xiongnu troubles that caused the Qin army to lose its troops and the people to be displaced have finally subsided!"

"What?" The four of them couldn't believe it at first, but when they realized that Fusu was definitely not joking, they were all smiling. They had been waiting for this day for a long time. Then the four of them stepped forward and knelt down at the same time.

: "I congratulate your Majesty!"

Fusu ordered the four of them to get up with a smile on his face. He had never thought about this stubborn Xiongnu nation in real history. This Xiongnu people almost killed Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty, and was captured on Baishan Mountain, and made the border border peaceless for nearly a hundred years after the Han Dynasty.

He could not help but feel excited that he could solve it in his own hands. However, Zhang Liang was still hesitant. After hesitating for a moment, he asked: "I wonder how the emperor knew about this? The Huns spread the news

How could it be destroyed in every corner of the grassland?"

Fusu smiled and said: "Zifang, you are wrong. The Huns have not been destroyed, but their threat to our Central Plains no longer exists." As he said that, he took out the silk letter and asked the chamberlain beside him to give it to Zhang.

In front of Liang and others. "This is what Zhang Han ordered his scouts to bring to the palace at a speed of six hundred miles a day. Everything I said has been clearly written on it. Please take a look."

After reading the contents of the silk book, several people also looked happy. If it were not for the fear of losing their manners in front of the king, the four of them would have laughed loudly. Chen Ping nodded repeatedly and said: "God bless me, Da Qin.

Unexpectedly, the emperor and his ministers had just devised a strategy to get rid of Mao Dun and leave the Huns leaderless. He died, and he died in the hands of their own people. In this way, even if there were Huns who were aggrieved by his death, they could only

He will think of those who killed him instead of us Qin people."

"Yes, this will inevitably lead to further aggravation of the conflicts within the Xiongnu. And from the letter sent by General Zhang Han, it seems that there is actually a group of trusted people still alive in Maodun, and this group of people is thinking of doing something for

He wants to take revenge. It seems impossible for the Xiongnu grassland to live peacefully." Meng Tian also said with joy. He had not been fighting the Xiongnu for a day or two, and his hatred for them was extremely deep. Now he knows that they have suffered so much.

Tribulation, I have to make him happy.

Fusu said: "Yes, in this way, our previous idea of ​​using the Huns' civil strife to inhibit their further development can be achieved. Now we only need to watch the fire from the other side and see which side of the troops on both sides is weak, and we will give it to them.

On the one hand, we can provide help and always keep the Huns in a situation of splitting and fighting. At that time, through these help and transactions, we can slowly form control over the Huns. In this way, we don’t need to send any troops or horses.

By spending a lot of money and without losing a lot of soldiers, we can eliminate this enemy that has troubled our Central Plains for nearly a hundred years. From now on, the people on our border no longer have to worry about enemy attacks. What a great joy."

Several ministers said yes one after another. Zhang Liang looked at Fusu, his heart full of admiration, because the few words he just mentioned were for the Qin Dynasty, for the soldiers and the people, but none of them were about his own generals.

His name will go down in history. "Perhaps this is the reason why I am willing to plan everything for the emperor wholeheartedly, because he has the people in his heart, and only such a person is worthy of ruling the world!"

After Fusu was happy, he said: "But we can't forget those who died on the grassland. I want to commend them and shed their blood for the world of our Great Qin and the people of our Great Qin."

These good men will set up monuments and let future generations know that they are heroes! As for the surviving warriors, I will also reward them well and let them return home in glory!" At this point, he looked at Chen Ping:

"Prime Minister, I have left all this to you."

Chen Ping hurriedly agreed loudly. He was also moved by Fusu's words. Unexpectedly, the emperor did not even forget the soldiers who died on the battlefield. This was indeed the action of a wise king.

Then Fusu discussed with everyone how to profit from the chaos on the grassland, and then told the ministers that he had decided to tell the good news to the officials at the court tomorrow morning. Everything has been decided.

, Fusu also sent the four people out of the palace. But Fusu

I also made a mistake because of my excitement, that is, after hearing this great news, Han Xin, who has always been very active, surprisingly did not say anything. Although there was a smile on his face, it was very reluctant.

Except for the congratulations at the beginning, he just listened to everyone.

It was not until after leaving the palace that everyone dispersed back home, and when Han Xin was riding on his horse, his expression turned gloomy. Unexpectedly, the last enemy had been defeated, so he would not have any good opportunities to make meritorious deeds in the future.

Although his status in the court is not low now, and he is deeply trusted by Fusu like Zhang Liang, Meng Tian and others, his wishes are still not satisfied.

In his mind, he wanted to go one step further. It would be best to surpass Meng Tian, ​​who had followed Fusu for the longest time, in terms of military merit, so that he could be inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people in the court. But now, with the final enemy, the Xiongnu

The civil strife began, and I was afraid that this idea of ​​mine would no longer be realized. Thinking of this, Han Xin couldn't help but sigh with a sense of loss, and urged the war horse to go to his mansion.

Up and down the court, and even in the entire Central Plains, only Han Xin had such an idea when he heard the news. When Fusu announced the news in the court, everyone in the world rejoiced, and they all thought that the world would start from now on.

Taiping was overjoyed. Of course, the next method of dealing with the Huns was not announced to the world. Fusu only said that from then on, the Huns could no longer threaten the survival of the people in the Central Plains, and the enemy chief Mao Dun was also dead.

In fact, Fusu didn't know that when the news of Mao Dun's death spread on the grassland, another thing that was very beneficial to him was triggered, that is, Bai Ban and Ji Du had been making suggestions by Mao Dun's side.

, the person who brought great trouble to the Central Plains people was also left behind by Mao Dun at that time.

The rest of the soldiers were killed. Of course, until this time, Fusu did not know that these two people had played such an important role in the battle between Maodun and Daqin, so he was not more happy, but their killing,
Chapter completed!
