Chapter 39 Internal Insecurity

Just when several anti-Qin forces emerged in the Central Plains and the imperial court was greatly weakened, Fusu's people were divided into two groups. A group of people headed by Li Heng believed that now was the time to counterattack Hu Hai.

In good times, because he had to send people to suppress the anti-Qin forces in various places, he would not be able to spare many troops to deal with Fusu; but Meng Tian and his faction did not think so. Meng Tian said: "Although we are enemies with Hu Hai, we are

At the same time, we are also members of Da Qin. We cannot take advantage of the strong anti-Qin forces and sneak in, otherwise we will become the sinners of the destruction of our Da Qin. After all, we do not want to destroy Da Qin, but we want it to become stronger."

After listening to Meng Tian's words, Fusu also understood that now was not the time to add insult to injury, so he did not use troops against the surrounding counties. At the same time, after these days of recruitment, Fusu now had 80,000 troops. Fusu

He couldn't imagine how so many people came to join the army at the end of the Qin Dynasty, when he originally thought that the population was small. He soon understood the reason. Because the current productivity level is low, people can only live in groups to really live a better life. It is obvious that now

The Shangjun has the ability to make their lives better.

In addition to recruiting soldiers and horses to make Fusu happy, he also happily welcomed two people. One was named Chen Ping. When Fusu heard his name, he felt very familiar, but he couldn't remember it at the time and didn't think much about it.

Taking him seriously, he only appointed him as a staff officer in the army. This official position was also newly created by Fusu. Many people who had not yet shown their talents were allowed to take this position for a period of time first, and then they could take over the position later.

Look at his ability. To put it bluntly, this position is like a snake oil in the army. He can take charge of everything, but he does not have absolute rights. Because his name attracted Fusu's attention, Chen Ping became the first person to hold this position.

But he is indeed a talented person. In just a few days, he has been praised by everyone in the army. Since he can convince so many people, Fusu is very interested in this person who can impress him with his name.

He paid even more attention. Seeing him doing everything in an orderly manner, Fusu was even more certain that he must be a famous figure in history. After thinking hard for a long time, Fusu remembered that he was one of the men who assisted Liu Bang in creating the Han Dynasty.

One of the most capable strategists. Once he thought that Chen Ping might be Liu Bang's counselor second only to Zhang Liang, Fusu's attitude towards him was completely different, and he immediately promoted him to the position of strategist.

Everyone was confused, and Fusu just used Chen Ping's ability as an excuse. Now Fusu has two great think tanks, Chen Ping and Li Heng.

When the second man came, he was covered in wounds and dressed in blue, like a beggar. But Meng Tian recognized him at a glance because he was Meng Tian's brother Meng Yi. He heard that his name was Meng Yi.

At the same time, Fusu had the urge to laugh, and at the same time wanted to ask him if he knew a foreign princess named Yushu. Of course, this was just what Fusu was thinking. On the surface, he still welcomed Meng Yi's arrival. At the same time,

I asked him about his experience. It turned out that Meng Yi accompanied Qin Shihuang on his eastern tour. When Qin Shihuang was about to die, Zhao Gao found an excuse to send him back to Xianyang for fear that the matter would be leaked. After that, Hu Hai ascended the throne to support Bao Fu.

Su's ministers carried out harsh rectification, and Meng Yi was naturally an important role in it. Who called him Meng Tian's younger brother? But he was not destined to die. When Zhao Gao ordered people to round him up, he relied on his outstanding performance to

With his martial arts skills and the protection of dozens of subordinates, he escaped. However, the court immediately issued a wanted document. Meng Yiyou was seriously injured and had to temporarily hide in the mountains. He hid like this for more than half a year before he came to Shangjun.

.

Meng Tian was naturally very happy to see his younger brother arrive safely. At the same time, Fusu was also happy that there was an additional general in the army. Just when the imperial court was in dire straits and Fusu was thriving, Fusu

Finally something went wrong in the rear.

When the original Yan people saw that the capitals of Qi, Zhao, Chu and other countries were reestablished one after another, they also thought of restoring their own land. However, the capital of Yan's capital Ji now does not have much population, and some of the original people have been moved to

After arriving in Xianyang, more people were recruited to build the Great Wall. Because Yan is the country closest to the grassland among the six countries in the Central Plains, their people were naturally recruited to build the Great Wall the most. It can be said that now outside Shangjun City

Sixty percent of the hard laborers were survivors of the Yan State, so an operation to revive the Yan Kingdom broke out in Shangjun.

Under the leadership of Ji Guiming, who claimed to be a descendant of the royal family of the Yan Kingdom, 20,000 Yan Kingdom slave laborers suddenly launched an attack. They hacked to death the Fusu soldiers who were supervising their work, and then brazenly attacked Yangzhou County under the jurisdiction of Shangjun.

In one day, they quickly captured the county town, which was only garrisoned by 500 sergeants.

But the news had already reached Fusu when they attacked Yangzhou County. Because they had tasted the benefits of being well-informed in Xianyang and the grasslands, Fusu had ordered people to secretly arrange several flying locations on his own territory.

The pigeon was the contact point for sending messages, so once someone attacked Yangzhou, Fusu would immediately get the news.

After learning the news, Fusu immediately summoned several important personnel to discuss the matter, and the newcomers Chen Ping and Meng Yi also became two of these core members.

Fusu looked at the crowd and said, "I never thought there would be anti-Qin people here. Do you have any good solutions?"

Zhou Xing immediately said: "The general is willing to lead troops to quell the rebellion. I think these people are just a piece of loose sand."

"General Zhou is too impulsive," Meng Tian shook his head and vetoed his opinion, "Now our territory and population are far less than Hu Hai, and now we have to face the same situation as them, and the situation is quite unfavorable to us. Now we should deal with them

We cannot rely purely on force. It is best to end things peacefully. As long as we can convince them, we can still get tens of thousands of troops without using weapons, so suppression is the next best option."

Fusu nodded repeatedly after hearing this. After getting along with each other these days, Fusu already knew that Meng Tian was not a martial artist who only knew how to fight, but a man with a rich political mind. "Although General Meng's words are reasonable, they are too

It's too wishful thinking, you know they hate our Qin people so much, how can we convince them to help us?" Zhang Wu was obviously on Zhou Xing's side.

Fusu looked at the two military advisors, Li Heng and Chen Ping, wondering what opinions they would put forward. But for some reason, Li Heng has always been absent-minded these days, and it was the same today. He did not express as much as before.

His own opinion. Seeing that Li Heng was not in good condition, Fusu had no choice but to turn his attention to Chen Ping. Chen Ping knew that this was the first time that he had made suggestions for Fusu. If he succeeded according to his own policy, his status would be

We can go a step further, otherwise I am afraid that the position of military advisor will not be filled. Thinking of this, he made a little calculation: "In my opinion, there is a solution that has both sides, but it requires the prince to take action." Seeing everyone's reaction,

Looking at himself, Chen Ping said confidently: "We still don't know how many of these remnants of the Yan Kingdom are determined to revive the Yan Kingdom. If I can recruit them, it will be good for me, but if I really can't recruit us, then

We can only eliminate them before they take charge. So I propose that the prince personally lead the troops. On the one hand, it can show our sincerity in recruiting surrender. If this is not possible, with the prince over there, our sergeants can do it themselves.

I will fight the enemy bravely and my morale will be high. Maybe I can quell this rebellion in the shortest time and at the lowest cost."

"No, this will put the prince into danger. The risk is too great." When Meng Tian heard that he wanted Fusu to lead the troops to take risks, he directly rejected his proposal.

Other generals also said: "It is true that the prince cannot be allowed to go into danger himself. We should find another way."

Fusu felt warm in his heart when he saw everyone arguing about his own safety. He could see that everyone was not only loyal to the monarch, but also concerned about his friends. This was the happiest thing for him.

. Because as a lord, it is already rare for his subordinates to regard him as a friend. Listening to them becoming more and more fierce, Fusu pressed his hand to signal them to stop, then looked at Li Heng and said: "Li Heng."

What do you think we should do, sir?"

Li Heng had begun to listen carefully when Chen Ping told him his method. Now that he was asked, he stroked his beard and said: "I also agree with Brother Chen's method, but there are a few points to add. First, since the prince

We are going to suppress the rebellion. There must be a capable person guarding this county. Otherwise, once the enemy learns that the prince is leading the expedition, someone will attack us by surprise. Secondly, there must be a capable person around the prince.

We must be protected by generals, and Beidi County must also be protected by generals.”

After listening to his words, Fusu couldn't help but admire Li Heng's thoughtfulness. He raised all the issues that everyone had ignored. When the others saw that the two military advisers suggested that Fusu personally lead troops to quell the rebellion, they could not help but admire him.

There was nothing to say for a while, only Meng Tian still had a worried look on his face. Fusu smiled and said to Meng Tian: "General Meng, Fusu is not the emperor yet, so there is no such thing as noble status or not.

As long as we can succeed, these risks are worth taking. In fact, which founding king did not personally fight for the world with his own strength, and how can I, Fusu, be an exception?"

Seeing Fusu's insistence, Meng Tian could only nod in agreement, but then said: "Then I will go with the prince to protect his safety."

"Then who will protect Shangjun and Beidijun?" Fusu asked.

"My brother Meng Yi's fighting ability is not inferior to mine. He can defend the north. As for Shangjun..."

Before he finished his words, Li Heng said with a smile: "Then let me guard it. I have been feeling unwell these days and I really cannot go on the expedition with the prince."

"Okay, then let's do what you suggested. I will lead the troops and set off early tomorrow morning." Fusu said with high spirits.

PS: Today is a good day. I finally have the opportunity to appear on the cover. Of course, I want to thank everyone who reads this book for their support. Thank you, thank you~
