The ice and snow melt, the spring breeze blows, and it is a new year.
Amid the warm farewell of the people, the high-spirited Qin cavalry slowly marched towards the southwest region, targeting the Western Qiang tribe.
Over the past decade, the Qin Dynasty has prospered and its national strength has grown. Military exercises have demonstrated the empire's invincible military capabilities.
Whenever he went to war abroad, he was invincible and conquered every battle.
Therefore, the people of the Qin Dynasty had a strong sense of pride and self-confidence in the empire, and were extremely confident that the army would return victorious.
However, the war did not go as smoothly as everyone expected.
The Northwest is located on a plateau. The higher the altitude, the more severe the altitude sickness.
If the relief drugs had not been prepared in advance, the marching speed would probably have been greatly reduced.
In addition, there are many mountains and the terrain is steep, so the Qiang people live in scattered places. In order to avoid wild beasts in the mountains, their settlements are very hidden, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Even if the Qin army has strong forces and sophisticated weapons, everything will be in vain if it cannot find the target.
Fortunately, under Ying Zhao's suggestion, some arrangements were made in advance. Although it is a tough bone to chew, everything is ready and it just takes a little more time.
So, this fight lasted for two years.
In reality, this was a very long and protracted war, but most of the time was spent on moving, tracking, and resting, and there was not much time spent on fighting.
After all, facing the Qiang people who only had cold weapons such as spears and bows and arrows, the Qin army was well-equipped and completely crushed them with the terrifying lethality of hot weapons.
In the beautiful spring days, the new buds on the branches symbolize vitality and hope. All things are reviving, and the scene is prosperous.
In the spring of the sixteenth year of Emperor Qin Shihuang's reign.
The army that conquered the West returned in triumph, and the whole country celebrated.
On the day of returning to the capital, the gates of Xianyang City were wide open, the sounds of horses' hooves merged into a soul-stirring and magnificent prelude, and the huge army entered the city in an orderly manner.
The soldiers held sharp weapons in their hands, with blood stains on their silver armor. They were surrounded by the solemn and murderous aura of iron-blooded warfare, and their resolute faces were filled with the joy of victory.
The city was decorated with lights and colorful lanterns, and the sound of gongs and drums was deafening.
The streets were lined with jubilant people, all with proud and excited looks on their faces, and cheers rose one after another.
"Hahaha, my Great Qin Tiger and Wolf Army is truly invincible!"
"Old Qin is valiant, rising like the sun in the east. Qin has sharp warriors, who can challenge him?"
"Father, the general is so majestic! I want to be a general in the future!"
"Amazing! The territory of our Great Qin has expanded by thousands of miles! Our prestige spreads far and wide, shocking the world. Who will dare to bully us Qin people from now on?"
"Long live the Empire!"
"Long live the Empire!"
“…”
"Bang--"
Celebratory fireworks bloomed in the sky, brilliant sparks shone, and cheers of victory were heard. The whole country was immersed in a sea of celebration.
Among the leading generals, the weathered Han Xin became steady and reliable, and he looked extraordinary and majestic.
He looked like a veteran who had fought on the battlefield for many years.
Unknowingly, the once high-spirited young man has transformed into a capable general.
His eyes swept over the familiar streets, the people with admiring expressions, and the smiling woman in white in the crowd.
The hard heart suddenly softened, and the corners of the lips curled up slightly.
He is no longer the ignorant young man he used to be. He only wants to achieve great things and become a majestic general.
Now he has a deep understanding of the glorious mission and heavy responsibility on his shoulders.
He wants to protect his motherland.
Protect his compatriots.
Protect the ones he loves.
The tall, burly and domineering Xiang Yu standing by accurately captured a swaying green figure.
He frowned, and his piercing eyes revealed disapproval.
But he still inadvertently showed off his bulging muscles, making himself look even more majestic.
The majestic generals in the lead are really eye-catching.
Each of them has a handsome appearance, a strong body, and a unique style.
This caused the surrounding women to look at him sideways, give him flirtatious glances, and express their admiration without concealing it.
In recent years, with the development of the industrial revolution, Daqin's economy has prospered, factories have sprung up everywhere, more than half of the workers are women, and there are also many female businesswomen running businesses.
As a result, the status of women was greatly improved and the customs of the people became more open.
So, now, whether it was young girls or married women, they all gathered in twos and threes, whispering, teasing and joking, and some even threw handkerchiefs.
"General Ji is truly a strong man. Look at those muscles. I wonder if his wife can handle it."
"If you ask me, General Han's physique is truly amazing! He's agile and powerful, and passionate, just like the little wolfhound in the storybook."
"Tsk tsk, you little girls are still inexperienced. In my opinion, it's more suitable to live with someone like General Zhou. He may appear simple and honest on the surface, but once he gets on the bed, he's more powerful than anyone else."
"Really? Really? Auntie, please elaborate."
In broad daylight, hearing these explosive and vulgar words, the people around couldn't help but feel embarrassed, but they moved closer and listened attentively.
As we all know, joining in the fun is the nature of the Chinese people.
After a while, more and more gossiping people gathered and drove their cars at a furious pace, making people's faces turn pale.
Which of the generals didn't have exceptional hearing? Naturally, they took in all these lewd words.
Even though they were determined and steady as a rock, they couldn't help but feel embarrassed at this moment and had to hurriedly order the team to speed up.
On the other side, in the palace.
Inside the magnificent palace, the emperor and empress had already ordered preparations for a grand celebration banquet.
Delicacies from land and sea, fine wines, all of them are exquisite and detailed, and the aroma is mouth-watering.
The musicians played cheerful and festive tunes, and the whole banquet was luxurious and lively.
Half an hour later.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the victorious generals all reported to their monarch.
"Your Majesty, we have fulfilled your command! All the Western Qiang tribes have submitted to the might of the Great Qin!"
"Hahaha, colorful! Colorful! Colorful!"
"You are worthy of being a good son of my Great Qin!"
The dignified and solemn emperor clapped his hands and laughed, his hearty laughter full of complacency and pride.
He personally helped each meritorious official to rise up to show his respect and appreciation.
After expressing their gratitude, the generals took their seats, chatting and laughing with the officials, toasting each other, and enjoying the glory and splendor that belonged to them alone at this moment.
At the lively banquet, the emperor and his ministers were having fun together and the atmosphere was very lively.
Chu Yuening couldn't hold her liquor, so she sat at another table and sipped some fruit wine. She was surrounded by beautiful women of all shapes and sizes, each with their own unique charm.
Bright and flamboyant, gentle and graceful, bright and pure, calm and gentle...
As a veteran face control freak, Ying Luan couldn't resist at all and was madly clinging to the beautiful aunts. His perverted look made the beauties laugh.
Ying Zheng: You little bastard are so useless! Also, why hasn't Yue Ning come to persuade me to drink? I've already had three cups.
Xiang Yu, Han Xin, Xiao He, Zhang Liang and others: Their love rivals are actually the queen and the princess?!
