The sky was slightly brighter, and the whole of Xianyang was immersed in silence. The occasional crowing of cocks added a bit of worldly fireworks to the silence.
Xianyang increasingly feels like a city in heaven, appearing more and more noble and inviolable.
The city wall, which is obviously quite old, now looks particularly majestic.
A group of people stood steadily under the city wall, without any breath or human appearance.
These are the soldiers under Bai Qi's command, and they are also the soldiers led by Wei Liao, Meng Wu and others this time.
It was originally agreed that the Xianyang defenders would follow them to pursue meritorious service, but this was shattered by an oral order from Ying Zheng last night, and they ended up leading this group of half-dead soldiers.
Since the reward was bestowed three days ago, Xianyang has been in turmoil these past two days. Countless people have been captured without any mercy.
In the past two days, it was like a ghost army passing through the border, and everyone was controlled in an instant. There were soldiers patrolling Xianyang all the time.
Apart from Ying Zheng and a few people who knew the truth, no one knew where these soldiers who suddenly appeared came from.
Because of this, those who had originally thought of rising up in rebellion and escaping the trouble all stayed at home and were then taken to prison and never heard from again.
However, these things have little to do with Meng Wuwei and Liao. Now they are just following Meng Ao to gain merit and gild themselves.
There were also some figures in Wei Liao's family who had relied on Meng Ao. They were also members of the Meng family, a faction, and they had some support.
In addition, he bet on the right horse and made friends with Li Si and Han Fei. In the future, he will have a place in the court.
Otherwise, based on his actions in the Qin-Zhao War, he would not have been able to join Meng Ao in suppressing the Mohist School, let alone become the Left Minister.
Although the Qin State relied on a system of military honors to establish itself, how many of those who could become generals came from poor families? In other words, how many of those who could make it were from the working class, slaves at the bottom of society, or farmers?
Even in this era, one still has to be born into a ceremonial family, or in other words, there is no way to get ahead without being born into a ceremonial family.
"The Emperor has issued an order stating that the Mohist sect is hiding in Yongcheng, and that we must immediately set out to exterminate them. You two only need to lead the soldiers to guard the surroundings, and I will take care of the rest."
Meng Ao knew the origins of the soldiers below him, but he did not tell them. He just gave an order to Meng Wu and Wei Liao. Then he touched the black tiger talisman in his hand. He heard a long whistle from his ear, and unconsciously shouted out: "Big wind!"
Like a roar in the valley, or like a person shouting here, a deafening voice rang out from the soldiers below: "Strong wind! Strong wind!! Strong wind!!!"
In an instant, the silence of the entire Xianyang was shattered.
Meng Ao looked at the army in front of him with some shock. There were clearly more than ten thousand people, but the voices they made were like that of one person.
This is impossible and cannot be done by humans.
"Send troops to Yongcheng!"
However, this was no longer the time for Meng Ao to be stunned. After three "strong winds", they should break camp and march towards Yongcheng.
Meng Wuwei Liao alone led 3,000 soldiers, plus the 5,000 soldiers promised to him by Ying Zheng as Meng Ao, a total of 13,000 soldiers, and they were also the secret soldiers under Bai Qi. If he could not wipe out the Mohist School in Yongcheng, then there would be no need for him, Meng Ao, to continue to serve as the general.
Although Meng Wu and Wei Liao were also frightened, as Meng Ao's expression remained unchanged, they did not dare to say a word.
Originally, it was a job to just pick up merits with your eyes closed, but now that the morale of the soldiers is so high, there is no time to work hard.
But the Mohist school is just a small one. Even if Mozi is the leader and leads thousands of Mohists, how can he resist the invincible Qin soldiers?
Even the Iron Eagle Warriors during the reign of King Zhaoxiang of Qin did not have such a military appearance!
A black iron torrent rose from Xianyang, following the same footsteps, and rushed towards Yongcheng.
This is a group of ghost soldiers, a group of ghost soldiers filled with countless evil spirits.
…
Ying Zheng had just woken up and was abruptly awakened by the roar outside.
Today, Meng Ao led the troops to encircle and suppress the Mohist School. Although he brought more than 10,000 soldiers, it was just like suppressing bandits, and there was no need for him, the Emperor of Qin, to show up in person.
In addition, the soldiers were all the ghost soldiers under Bai Qi's command, so Ying Zheng would never think about Meng Ao's rebellion.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you making so much noise so early in the morning?" Chen Xuan didn't have the same temper as Ying Zheng. He couldn't sleep, but who could resist the peaceful feeling of taking a nap with closed eyes?
"It's good to shout a little, and at the same time deter the undercurrents beneath Xianyang City." Ying Zheng didn't seem grumpy when he woke up. He just laughed twice, got out of bed, and picked up the Hetu and Luoshu. "After all, I don't have the energy to deal with those ungrateful people."
"Use those who are obedient, and kill those who are disobedient. Stop dithering." Chen Xuan muttered a few words and lay back down.
Since losing his beast armor, Chen Xuan's emotions have gradually become more human, probably leaning towards his human temperament.
This has both good and bad sides. The good thing is that Chen Xuan has not lost his humanity and knows what he can and cannot do. The bad thing is that Chen Xuan still has humanity.
As the one who enlightened Ying Zheng, he still had humanity. How could he blame Ying Zheng for abandoning his humanity?
Ying Zheng naturally didn't know what Chen Xuan was thinking. Now his entire attention was on the jade slip in his hand.
This thing is said to be the River Map and Luo Shu, but it doesn't look like any legend, nor does it look like a long river of history.
This point is not as simple and easy to understand as yesterday's divine punishment.
