When Zhao Gao entered the palace, Hu Hai was on the palace wall. Seeing him swaggeringly riding a carriage through the palace gate, as if he had regarded the palace as his own home, Hu Hai had a destiny to be guarded by the soldiers who shot him.

He had the urge to shoot him and all the guards to death. But he still had some patience. He thought of what Ziying had said to him. Zhao Gao's power was now too great. If he fell out with him, he would be afraid.

His throne was about to be lost. Thinking of this, Hu Hai had no choice but to give up.

"I have seen the emperor!" Zhao Gao saluted but did not hear Hu Hai asking him to get up, but he did not want to keep kneeling, so he stood up and stepped aside, asking: "Why did the emperor ask me to enter the palace?

?”

Seeing Zhao Gao's arrogant behavior, Hu Hai once again had murderous intent in his eyes, but he forced himself to calm down and said: "I just want to ask you, why have there been so few offerings in the palace these days? These things are all

Zhao Gao, you are responsible."

"This..." Zhao Gao cursed in his heart, but could not see it on his face at all, and replied: "The world has been occupied by rebels from all over the world, and I have tried my best to ensure the use of the palace.

I would like to ask the emperor to give you a clear warning."

"In this way, Mr. Zhao not only has no fault but also has merit." Hu Hai sneered in his heart. He already knew that Zhao Gao had put half of the tax revenue from various places into his own treasury since he took over this job. Now his family has

The wealth is beyond compare.

"I dare not say merit. As long as the emperor can understand my sufferings, it will be a great favor." Zhao Gao didn't want to fall out with Hu Hai yet, so he still behaved cautiously.

Hu Hai looked at him and suddenly said: "Zhao Changke and Bai Ban have been attacking Chu for some time. I wonder if they have ever reached Kuaiji County?"

"Judging from the current military reports, they should have taken Jiujiang City, and they must be fighting fiercely with the Chu people at this time. That's why I have repeatedly urged for food and fodder." When Zhao Gao heard Hu Hai mention this, he felt angry.

"As you just said, it is difficult to guarantee even the expenses of the palace. It is reasonable that the food and grass are difficult to raise. Now that the food and grass have been transported, I think it should not be difficult for them to capture Chudi.

?”

Zhao Gao didn't expect that Hu Hai could take advantage of what happened just now. He couldn't say anything for a while, so he could only say: "What the emperor said is true. I don't think the Chu land has only a few tens of thousands of troops. How can it be the opponent of our elite Qin soldiers?"

It won't be long before this Chu land will be back in the hands of my great Qin."

The purpose of Hu Hai's visit to Zhao Gao today was to assure him that he would definitely be able to capture Chu Di in person. Now that he had gotten what he wanted, he said no more and said, "I'm a little tired. You can leave the palace now."

After he left, Hu Hai sneered and said: "Since you said you could take Chudi, if those 100,000 troops return in defeat, you will have no excuse."

Zhao Gao thought that he was bound to win, and Hu Hai thought that he was defeated and returned, but Bai Ban thought that he might become a prisoner of the Chu people this time. Since that day when they went out to attack the enemy and were killed, the Qin people

Morale is getting worse day by day. If it weren't for the restraint of the continuous sitting method, I am afraid that all the Qin soldiers will go out of the city and surrender to the enemy. What worries the day squad even more is the actions of Zhao Changke. Now most of the troops in the city are Zhao Changke's troops.

We have another quarrel with him. If he suddenly attacks now, I am afraid that he will become his prisoner. Even so, the day shift did not dare to neglect the patrol of the city. Today he patrolled the top of the city again.

Seeing the flags flying outside the city and the high morale of the Chu army, and looking at the listless Qin soldiers under his command, he once again felt that the city could no longer be defended. "General, the food in the city has been exhausted. We have run out.

What should we do?" The manager of the granary came to the day shift to complain. "Many soldiers have already come to the granary, saying that we are deducting military rations, saying that if we don't distribute food according to the original quantity, they will attack and rob it.

Food is enough." He smiled bitterly as he spoke.

In fact, the day shift had already received many complaints from the generals, but he was aware of his own suffering and knew that he could not tell them that the food had been exhausted, otherwise there would be a real mutiny in the city. He smiled bitterly and said: "Just keep holding on.

Maybe the food and grass from Xianyang will arrive soon, and then the problem will be solved." Even he himself couldn't believe what Bai Ban said, because now the Chu people have surrounded Jiujiang City, and they obviously want to trap these 100,000 people.

He died here. At this time, Qin Bing no longer had the confidence to fight to the death, and the day shift felt that it was at the end of its rope.

At this time, Ziying's grain transport team was slowly advancing at a speed of fifty miles a day. Originally, there were several confidants of Zhao Gao in the team urging him to go faster. But since these people were removed by him for some reason.

After he fell, no one dared to confront him. Therefore, even if the Qin soldiers were not besieged in Jiujiang City, they would have been demoralized because they could not keep up with the food and grass, and would suffer a big defeat in Chu.

Fusu and the others did not expect that the battle between Zhao Gao and Hu Hai would extend to the battle against Chu. They just wanted to take advantage of the Qin people's large-scale attack on Chu to launch a surprise attack and capture Xianyang City.

Since the last time he and Xiao Tao got married, Fusu put aside all the scruples in his heart and spent a few days with Xiao Tao, envious of mandarin ducks but not immortals. At this time, the two of them were cuddling together, and Xiao Tao

Leaning in Fusu's arms like a cat, feeling his breath. Fusu also hugged this soft body, his face full of happiness, but his words made Xiaotao start to worry again: "I

In two days, we will lead the troops to Xianyang. You have to take good care of yourself here. You can't lose a lot of weight like last time. Do you hear me?"

"The prince is going on an expedition again? You have just come back not long ago, can't you rest here for a while?" Xiao Tao was surprised when she heard the first half of Fusu's words, but did not listen to the second half at all.

"Now that all the heroes in the world are divided, if I take a break, they will make great progress, so that the advantage I originally had will no longer exist. And this opportunity is fleeting, and I cannot slack off in the slightest."

Xiao Tao knew that she couldn't persuade Fusu, so she could only say: "The prince must be careful in everything, and it won't happen like last time."

"Don't worry, I've already suffered a loss once. I will be careful this time. But you, you must obey my instructions and not do what you did last time."

"Xiao Tao knows."

Two days later, Fusu was fully dressed and was about to set off with 30,000 troops. His first destination was Beidi County, and after resting and preparing there, he led the army straight into Xianyang. Because this time

It was a long-distance attack, so he only brought the 25,000 cavalry and 5,000 chariot soldiers. He transferred all the infantry to Meng Tian's army, which was used to attack city after city.

Holding the reins in his hands and stepping on the stirrups, Fusu said to Chen Ping and Meng Tian who were standing at the gate of the city: "Everyone, I'm going to leave now. Maybe we will meet again in Xianyang City." He was very confident about Meng Tian's combat ability.

Su was still at ease, so Fusu thought it was a sure thing for him to attack several counties. As for Chen Ping's defense of the city, his performance had won everyone's trust some time ago, so Fusu also felt relieved.

I entrusted my rear area to this person.

Chen Ping suddenly knelt down and said, "Thank you very much for your trust, Prince. Chen will certainly live up to your trust."

Fusu was riding on a horse and it was difficult to help him, so he hurriedly said to Chen Ping: "Mr. Chen, please get up quickly. I believe in your talent."

Meng Tian stepped forward to help Chen Ping up, and then said to Fu Su: "The general will definitely attract the Qin people's attention to me, Prince, please don't worry."

Fusu said no more, whipped the riding whip in his hand and said: "The whole army sets off!"

Tens of thousands of war horses embarked on a new journey.

After a period of trekking, the army finally arrived at Beidi County. Meng Yi, who was guarding Beidi County, had already known Fusu's combat policy, so he had arranged accommodation for them in the city. Then these cavalrymen first

He cultivated himself in Beidi County and waited for Qin's reaction.

Meng Tian's army also set out to attack Taiyuan County after Fusu left Shangjun. Although this time they were just feigning an attack, they couldn't just do it casually. After all, the more they attracted the attention of the Qin people, the more likely Fusu would be to succeed.

The bigger it is.

Taiyuan City has only less than 20,000 defenders left since Baiban led troops to attack Chu State, and many of them are new recruits who have just been recruited. Before they thought, Fusu had already died here, and those Fusu soldiers

The subordinates must be fighting over who is the leader, so how can they still have time to attack themselves, so their defensive strength is much weaker.

Unexpectedly, just when they thought they were safe, Meng Tian led 50,000 troops to attack Taiyuan City. This surprised the defenders in the city. While resisting, they quickly sought help from other nearby counties.

When Meng Tian saw the current defensive strength of Taiyuan City, he resolutely decided to use non-stop attacks to break down their psychological defenses, thus successfully taking over this large city leading to the Central Plains.

In terms of combat effectiveness, morale, and even weapons, this army is much higher than the Qin soldiers defending the city. After three days and three nights of uninterrupted attacks, Taiyuan City finally could no longer defend itself. At dawn,

The moment before, Meng Tian led his army to conquer. Some of the defenders in the city ran out and rushed to other counties. Meng Tian wanted this effect. As long as the Qin soldiers felt threatened, Xianyang would continue to receive news that he was leading the attack.

, in this way they will send troops to support or deal with themselves, and Fusu's hopes will be even greater. Thinking of this, Meng Tian ordered an attack on the next city.
