"You, you, you! How dare you! Do you know who you killed? You killed Lord Tim, the High Priest's son!"
"High Priest?"
Upon hearing this, the First Emperor couldn't help but laugh. "Let alone a high priest, even if the Chanyu Modu dared to be so presumptuous in front of me, I would kill him without hesitation. What do I have to fear from a mere high priest?"
"Who are you?
The Xiongnu envoys were forced back several steps in fear, but unfortunately, they still didn't understand the situation.
They didn't even know who they had been so arrogant towards.
They were arrogant in front of other Qin officials, and they had the right to be arrogant.
After all, no one wants to bear the blame for starting a war on the border.
but.
Did the First Emperor need it?
unnecessary.
He had wanted to launch a full-scale war against the Huns for a long time. He wanted to get rid of the Huns as quickly as possible. He wanted to march into the Mediterranean and confront the Roman Empire head-on.
"Hmph, weren't you all very arrogant just now? What? You don't even recognize the person standing before me?"
Who exactly is he?
"Could it be that he's not afraid of the risks of war?"
"We are protected by the Great God of Eternal Heaven!"
"The Eternal Heaven? Hahaha, I wondered what kind of deity it was, but it turns out to be just a grass-roots god!"
"you!"
"presumptuous!"
"Snap!"
The envoys were instantly enraged. The Eternal Heaven was their faith. Of course, the Xiongnu's faith at this time could not be entirely attributed to the Eternal Heaven, since there were many different types of shamans in the early days.
The reason for attributing this to the Eternal Heaven is mainly because these shamans all have some connection with the Eternal Heaven.
Therefore, the historians couldn't find a suitable word to replace the meaning in their translations, so they used "Eternal Heaven" instead.
At that moment, the First Emperor touched upon their belief in the gods, and this group of people immediately became angry.
One by one, they drew their long swords.
It seemed like they were about to take action against the First Emperor at any moment.
"Quickly, protect the emperor!"
"Quickly, protect the emperor!"
"Your Majesty, Wang Li has arrived late to rescue you. Please forgive him!"
"Wang Li, get out of my way! I want to see what these arrogant Huns are capable of!"
The First Emperor, in his arrogance, dismissed the guards and ordered them to step aside.
He held the Ding Qin Sword in both hands, his expression unchanged, but his eyes revealed the king's disdain.
Back then...
Jing Ke was also looked down upon by him in this way.
Who exactly are you?
"How dare you! Aren't you afraid that your Qin emperor will punish you?"
"How dare you! This is His Majesty the Emperor! All of you, cease your nonsense!"
Wang Li was extremely frustrated. He had finally gotten a chance to save the emperor, but the emperor wouldn't let him step forward. Now that the group of people were saying something slightly too aggressive, he immediately drew his broadsword and jumped out.
That's true loyalty and devotion.
"What? He's the Emperor of Qin?"
"Your Majesty, spare me! Your Majesty, spare me!"
Instantly, within a few breaths, they reacted, kneeling on the ground one by one, putting down their weapons, and kowtowing repeatedly to beg for mercy.
"Hmph, their arrogance followed by their subservience is laughable. Guards, chop them all up and hand them over to Prime Minister Li Lin, who will then travel to the Xiongnu in three days to deliver them to the Xiongnu Chanyu Modu!"
"promise!"
"Your Majesty, spare my life!"
"Your Majesty, aren't you afraid of the Chanyu's wrath if you kill us?"
......
Their cries grew more and more pitiful until finally there was no sound at all.
The ministers lowered their heads in fear.
The PhD students' expressions changed drastically.
Only Prime Minister Li Lin was filled with anxiety, looking at the First Emperor with a puzzled expression.
"Your Majesty, what are you trying to do? Chopping them up is one thing, but to have me deliver this to the Xiongnu Chanyu when I'm sent as an envoy in three days... isn't this pushing me to my death?"
After leaving the post station.
Li Lin was not in a good state.
The First Emperor walked in front, and he followed behind, trembling.
"Minister Li, do you think that if I do this, the Xiongnu Chanyu Modu will see it as a provocation and kill you in a fit of rage?"
"this......"
"Actually, this is exactly the effect I wanted. I've tried many methods to deal with the Xiongnu, but without exception, none of them have been able to completely eradicate them. Years ago, when Meng Tian went north, I instructed him to make sure to concentrate and annihilate the Xiongnu. But even after being stationed on the border for so many years, he has been unable to effectively locate the Xiongnu's encampment."
"What do you mean, Your Majesty?"
"Don't rush, let me finish!"
"promise!"
"The Xiongnu are mostly nomadic tribes, and they move their location every half month or less, or even every seven or eight days. This is a rather troublesome problem for the Qin army, which is conducting large-scale annihilation operations. Although I do not understand military affairs, it does not prevent me from understanding the military situation. There is only one way to completely annihilate the Xiongnu in war. That is, to send you to the Xiongnu!"
"ah?"
What's going on? Isn't the only way to make soup from the bones?
The First Emperor was taken aback. What kind of big bones are boiled into soup? This rascal, why is he thinking about food again?
"Your Majesty, why do you say that only by sending me to the Xiongnu can we completely eliminate them?"
"Because you are smart, quick-witted, and shameless enough, which are indispensable qualities for people who can achieve great things! This time, in order to avoid Hu Hai's attempts to win you over, you actually used such a despicable method without regard for your reputation. I am amazed by this. So I had already come up with a brilliant plan. Moreover, only you can execute this plan perfectly."
