Two Thousand Years in a Dream of Millet, One Man, One Sword, Protecting the Mountains and Rivers

At the end of the Warring States period, he studied under Guiguzi, practiced the strategy of alliances and confederacies, established the Black Ice Platform, and helped Ying Zheng sweep across the ...

Chapter 158 Is Tian Zang a member of the Black Ice Guard?

But at that moment, the Qin soldiers began shouting from the foot of the mountain, urging the rebels to surrender.

Otherwise, they would set the mountain on fire and burn the entire mountain to ashes.

The rebels were terrified when they heard the Qin army's shouts. They were just ordinary people and had never seen anything like this before.

Seeing that his soldiers were about to lose control, Wu Guang roared, "Brothers! Even if we surrender, do you think the Qin army will let us go?"

"We only have one path left now, and that is to fight our way out!"

As soon as Wu Guang finished speaking, the soldiers responded enthusiastically.

"Fight your way out!"

Knowing they had nowhere to retreat, the rebels charged down the mountain with their weapons, determined to fight the Qin army to the death.

But how could they possibly be a match for the well-equipped Qin soldiers? They held out for less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, and the rebels suffered heavy casualties and retreated back to the mountain.

Upon seeing this, Wu Guang couldn't help but sigh.

Although the Qin army was small in number, its fighting power was extremely strong, and it was simply impossible for ordinary troops to withstand it.

More and more people in the rebel army were wavering, especially those who were originally Qin soldiers. They had only surrendered under duress and had no intention of betraying the army.

At this point, they actually turned against their own side, throwing away their weapons and running down the mountain.

Seeing this, Zhang Han did not kill them, but continued to incite the rebels on the mountain, saying that they could be spared death as long as they laid down their weapons and surrendered.

The Qin army might even let them go home; after all, they were just ordinary people, and there was no need to be so ruthless.

Wu Guang panicked completely. If things continued like this, they would surely be defeated.

He wanted to stop it all from happening, but there was nothing he could do.

At this moment, Wu Guang's general Tian Zang came to his side, cupped his hands, and said, "My lord, we have no way out now, let's surrender!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Guang's face turned ashen. He gritted his teeth and said, "Surrender? I still have 200,000 troops. If we fight with all our might, we can still fight the Qin army. Why should we surrender?"

Upon hearing these words, Tian Zang frowned slightly.

"My lord, we have no way out now. Even if we fight to the death, we are no match for the Qin army, and we may be completely annihilated."

Tian Zang patiently tried to persuade Wu Guang, hoping he would understand his meaning.

Wu Guang sneered, "What do you mean by that? Do you intend to surrender to the tyrannical Qin?"

Tian Zang sighed and said, "My lord, if you truly remain so stubborn, then you'll only bring trouble upon this humble general!"

Having said that, Tian Zang suddenly attacked, thrusting his sword toward Wu Guang's chest.

Seeing this, Wu Guang hurriedly retreated, but he was still a step too slow. Tian Zang's sword pierced through his abdomen, and blood sprayed into the forest.

Wu Guang clutched his stomach, his eyes wide open, seemingly in disbelief. He never expected that Tian Zang would actually attack him.

"You..." Wu Guang pointed at Tian Zang, his mouth open, but he couldn't make a sound. He only felt his body gradually becoming numb.

Upon seeing this, Tian Zang smiled and drew his sword.

Wu Guang swayed a few times, then collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Upon seeing this, Tian Zang snorted coldly, stepped forward, and picked up Wu Guang's corpse.

"Wu Guang is dead! Lay down your weapons and surrender!"

As soon as Tian Zang finished speaking, the rebels all laid down their weapons and knelt on the ground in surrender.

Seeing this, Tian Zang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Two hundred thousand rebel soldiers surrendered. When Tian Zang met Zhang Han, he immediately cupped his hands and said, "Tian Zang of the Black Ice Guard greets General Zhang!"

Zhang Han was immediately stunned. He never expected that Tian Zang, Wu Guang's top general, was actually a member of the Black Ice Guard.

"General Tian, ​​are you from the Black Ice Guard?" Zhang Han asked in a deep voice.

Tian Zang cupped his hands and said, "General Zhang, I was formerly a member of the Black Ice Guard, but I couldn't stand Fusu's actions, so I joined Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's army!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Han frowned deeply. Although Fusu had done a series of outrageous things...

However, Fusu promoted Zhang Han, giving him an opportunity that enabled Zhang Han to successfully rise to power.

Now that Tian Zang of the Black Ice Guard has betrayed the Qin Dynasty for this reason, Zhang Han felt a chill in his heart.

"I see!" Zhang Han said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Tian Zang's expression changed slightly. He knew perfectly well what Zhang Han was thinking at that moment.

However, he wasn't too worried.

"Where is the master?" Tian Zang asked.

Zhang Han clearly had no liking for Tian Zang, and replied indifferently, "Sir should already be stationed in Xingtai by now."

Upon hearing this, Tian Zang quickly replied, "Then this humble general will immediately return to see you, sir. Farewell!"

"Wait!" Zhang Han suddenly called out to Tian Zang.

"General Zhang, is there anything else you need?" Tian Zang asked, puzzled.

Zhang Han hesitated for a moment before finally speaking, "I don't care what your previous identity was. If you dare to betray Qin again, I will execute you without mercy!"

Tian Zang felt very uncomfortable seeing Zhang Han's hostility towards him.

But he maintained a respectful demeanor on the surface.

"Thank you for your guidance, General Zhang! I will keep it in mind!"

Zhang Han gave Tian Zang a cold look, then turned and left.

As Tian Zang watched Zhang Han walk away, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

His betrayal of the Qin army stemmed from two reasons: his dissatisfaction with Fusu and the disbandment of the Black Ice Guard.

But who could have predicted that Lu Li would appear and turn the tide, deposing Fusu, killing Shusun Tong, and establishing a new emperor?
