Chapter 49 Two news
By the time Fusu returned to Shangjun with more than 30,000 people, the weather had slowly warmed up. Everything in the world had begun to revive. Willow branches began to sprout tender buds, and weeds in the soil began to sprout.
came out, and from time to time some animals ran past.
Looking at such beautiful scenery in the wild, Fusu felt relaxed and happy. In his previous life, it was rare to see such a vibrant scene in the city where he lived, and it was even harder to see wild animals. In addition, he had returned from victory and saw
This makes the scenery even better.
With such a good mood, Fusu saw the city gate of Shangjun. He hoped to take a good rest and let the soldiers recuperate for a while. From a distance, he saw many people standing at the city gate.
Waiting for their return outside, it must be the credit of the cavalry who took the first step to report the victory. Thinking of this, he hurriedly urged the horse to run over.
Chen Ping, Meng Tian and others were standing at the gate of the city waiting for him. When they saw Fusu Yiqi coming over first, everyone hurriedly gathered around and saluted: "We are here to wish the prince a successful victory."
Fusu hurriedly jumped off his horse, cupped his hands and said, "You don't need to be so polite. Many soldiers sacrificed their lives to achieve victory this time, so they should really be congratulated." As he spoke, the army had also arrived, and Zhou Xing and the others
Seeing that all the officials in Shangjun City had just greeted them, they were busy so everyone stood in line, and then walked into Shangjun City in high spirits.
"I didn't expect that the prince's departure did not result in the loss of many troops as you said. On the contrary, it further increased the number of our army. I will feel ashamed for not trusting the prince in the past." When they saw Fusu leaving, the two men
When they arrived, there were more than 30,000 people. Meng Tian sighed with emotion.
"Actually, our army still suffered a lot of losses. If General Meng had led the army, our army's losses would have been smaller and our gains might have been greater." Fusu said humbly.
While talking, everyone walked into the city with the soldiers. The people on both sides of the streets in Shangjun City were also welcoming their warriors back. Seeing this scene, Fusu couldn't help but admire Chen Ping. Since he took over
After finding out what happened to Zhao Heng, he won the trust of all the people in a short period of time. He was worthy of being one of the important counselors in history who helped Liu Bang conquer the world. Thinking of this, he deliberately slowed down his progress and waited.
When he arrived, Chen Ping was behind him and walked with him.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Chen was so capable that in such a short period of time, the people in the city could support us so much. Then we would have no worries at all." Fusu said to Chen Ping in admiration.
"This is why the prince has won the hearts of the people. Chen Ping does not dare to be greedy for credit." Chen Ping said modestly, "The banquet to celebrate the victory has been prepared. The prince must have a good time with the soldiers today."
When Fusu heard this, he nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, not only today, but this time I will let the soldiers who are accompanying me on the expedition rest for three days. Because our battle has just begun, and only a good rest can make us better."
Fight more powerfully."
"Yes, what the prince said is absolutely true. But after these three days, we have a new task to do."
"What happened?" Fusu looked at Chen Ping strangely, not knowing what he meant.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. General Meng and I have already agreed that it is better not to let the Prince bother himself during this moment of celebration. We will tell the Prince exactly what happened in three days."
Fusu laughed: "Okay, then I will wait three days."
Within three days, the city was filled with joy, but Fusu clearly felt that someone was missing. However, since he had already agreed that these three days would be a celebration of victory, Fusu didn't think much about it.
Three days later, Fusu immediately called Chen Ping: "You can tell me if you have anything to do now."
Chen Ping said: "Now there is good news and bad news. Which one does the prince want to hear first?"
When Fusu heard that he was still doing this, he knew that the matter was not too serious, so he smiled and said, "I'll just hear the bad news first."
"Prince, don't you think it's strange why Li Wenming didn't show up when we won the victory?" Chen Ping asked.
"Li Wenming." Fusu suddenly remembered. No wonder he always felt that someone was missing. It was him from afar, so he asked, "But what happened to Prime Minister Li Si in Xianyang?"
"The biography of Fei Ge from Xianyang said that not only he, but also all members of the Li family in Xianyang City had been executed, and their bodies were exposed in the wilderness and were not allowed to be buried in the ground." Chen Ping said calmly.
said.
"What? Prime Minister Li Si has been killed?" Fusu suddenly jumped up from his seat and asked loudly.
"Exactly, that's why Li Wenming didn't celebrate with the whole city. He has now set up a memorial tablet in his residence and is paying homage to his family."
"Come on, take me to pay homage. Why didn't you inform me of such a big event as soon as possible?" Fusu said and rushed out. Chen Ping had no choice but to follow behind.
As he walked along, Fusu's heart was in confusion. Li Si finally did not escape the fate of being killed, and was exterminated by his entire family just like historical records. At the same time, he also thought of the intelligence gathered during this period. Liu Bang and Xiang Yu rebelled.
, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang also revolted, and they also revolted as recorded in history. Everything is slowly moving forward with the wheel of history. It can be said that since the death of Qin Shihuang in the sand dunes, the only thing that is different from what happened in history is Fusu
After surviving, I also got a piece of land that allowed me to live. Apart from this, I didn't change much when I came to this world. Maybe I can only change the people around me, like Chen Ping and Meng Tian, but I
Can it change the course of history? Maybe it won't be long before Liu Bang and Xiang Yu join forces. By then, will the Qin Dynasty be overthrown by them like they did in history? Then what will happen to me?
?Thinking about these things, Fusu felt very confused. If everything was as described in history, wouldn't everything he did now become useless? This was the first time Fusu had any doubts about what he had done.
He had doubts. But then he shook his head and drove away the negative thoughts in his heart, "I still have to believe in my own efforts. Maybe I can really change history. Even if I fail in the end, I will still learn from Xiang Yu."
It will also leave a mark in history!" Fusu thought as he arrived at the door of Li's house.
When he entered Li Wenming's residence, he was startled by the dozens of spiritual tablets that came into view. Li Wenming knelt in front of the spiritual tablet, his face was pale, and he didn't show any expression to Fusu and others coming in. Fusu knew that now
His mood was extremely unstable, so he just knelt down beside him, kowtowed to the spiritual tablets, and then walked out with Chen Ping. Their entry and exit and a series of activities did not fall into Li Wenming's eyes.
In other words, he turned a blind eye.
After getting out of the door, Fusu turned to Chen Ping and asked: "I only heard one of the two pieces of news Mr. Chen just said. I wonder what the good news is?"
Chen Ping saw that Fusu was shocked when he first heard about Li Si's death, then became lonely and then regained his composure. He didn't know that Fusu had been thinking about many things just now, but he could guess that this matter had a great impact on Fusu.
It was of great significance, so he continued: "The good news is that the prince should have noticed that the population in my upper county has increased a lot."
"Did someone from other counties defect to us?" Fusu asked in surprise.
"I don't know the situation in other counties, but many people from Taiyuan County have come to our side."
"Why, hasn't the chaos in Taiyuan County been brought under control yet?" Fusu asked, feeling very strange. You must know that there are hundreds of thousands of people in Taiyuan County, and it has been more than a month since the chaos broke out. The court would not have sat down.
It seems that such a large force is completely useless due to internal instability.
"We don't know. Maybe the power of the imperial court can no longer extend to Taiyuan County, or there are some rebels or remnants of the Six Kingdoms who are causing trouble. Anyway, the chaos in Taiyuan is still there these days.
If it continues, maybe it won't be long before they are at war with each other again." Chen Ping said with a hint of excitement on his face.
Fusu also noticed the slight change in his expression: "Do you mean that we should take advantage of this opportunity to raise troops to attack Taiyuan County?"
"This is the best opportunity to capture Taiyuan at this time. With internal and external troubles, Taiyuan has now become a display that can fall down at a push. If we don't take it, I'm afraid other rebels will also take action against him."
Fusu looked up at the sky for a while, thought for a while and said: "This is indeed the best time to capture Taiyuan County, and there are people from Taiyuan County who can serve as guides, but after all, there are hundreds of thousands of people in it."
Men and horses, we must not take it lightly, we must discuss it carefully with everyone, and we must take Taiyuan at the minimum cost."
The reason why Fusu never went to capture Taiyuan was not only because he had internal problems, but more importantly because he still had some feelings for Qin. He was afraid that by doing so, those who rebelled would take advantage of him, but
Now he also saw that if he didn't take Taiyuan, others would probably take it without ceremony. Not only would Qin Ting be hit, but he would also not benefit from it, so he finally made up his mind to take Taiyuan.
This is my own gateway to the Central Plains.
However, Fusu's decision was still a little late, because not all those who escaped from Taiyuan came from Shangjun, some of them went to Hedong County, which also made the Zhang Chu regime develop and strengthen its power there.
They have also coveted Taiyuan, and both of them have regarded Taiyuan as a dish on their table.
