I’m The King

Chapter 1513 : Han Qi Tianxia 203 decisive battle 17

Gou Yi staggered, and ran all the way into the black ice platform, pushing open the heavy door, and a cold breath rushed towards him. Although the sun was shining outside, the inside of the hall was dark and gloomy, Lu Chao Staying alone in the hall, even the windows have not been opened.

Once upon a time, when Lu Chao first entered the black ice platform, his favorite thing to do was to stand on the high terrace of the black ice platform and look down at the entire Xianyang. The feeling of stepping the world under his feet made him I feel very comfortable. But now, this has become a torture.

“What’s the bad news again?” Lu Chao came in the darkness, like a voice from Jiuyou Hell.

Gou Yi tried his best to adapt his eyes to the darkness in the hall as soon as possible, and finally saw Lu Chao wearing the emperor’s costume, sitting upright behind the big case that had just been arranged in the Black Ice Terrace hall.

In the past, the black ice platform was empty, simple and atmospheric, but now, it is decorated beautifully, with brilliant golden walls, and it looks extremely graceful and luxurious. But at the moment Lu Chao was in the hall alone, but he was dressed up and sat on it, which inevitably looked very strange.

Gou Yi took a breath, and the emperor seemed to be getting a little abnormal recently.

“Your Majesty, the new army led by Bai Qisuo was surrounded by several troops and horses of the Han army in Baiyu. There was just a news that tens of thousands of troops failed to break through the enemy’s defenses and rendezvous with General Xu Yahua, and the whole army was defeated. The whereabouts of General Bai Qi is unknown.”

After the imperial case, Gouyi raised his head anxiously and looked at the emperor. The expression on Lu Chao’s face was very strange. Amidst Gouyi’s surprised eyes, bursts of wild laughter burst out: “It’s gone again. The fifty thousand army is gone again!”

Gouyi felt cold. The Xianyang battle that the emperor counted on. What you need to rely on is the 50,000 new army from Baiqi and the 80,000 army that Xu Yahua withdrew from Hangu Pass. Only with them as the backbone, these mobs gathered in Xianyang. There was only a battle strength, but now it is gone for nothing. Can Xu Yahua still come back?

From the very beginning, the Han people fully understood Lu Chao’s strategic concept. After the breakthrough of the number of troops, they left Xianyang aside and sent extremely elite troops to make a rapid breakthrough in the territory of Qin, inserting two troops from the diagonal sting. On the only way, the two elite troops were intercepted on the way. If it is in normal times, this is naturally unlikely, but now. The Qin State was completely distracted. Wherever the Han army went, officials from various places surrendered. Not only did the Han army not receive the slightest hindrance, but it was able to get various supplies from the Qin State. Those officials who surrendered the Qin State. , Everyone tried their best to provide service to the Han army, for fear that if they were not thoughtful, the Han army would find an excuse to clean up.

People’s hearts are lost, and they have reached the point where they can’t be added. No one thinks Lu Chao will win yet.

“Where is Xu Yahua? I have high hopes for him. He actually sits up and does not save him?” Lu Chao’s cold voice came from above.

“Your Majesty, General Xu sent an army to respond to General Bai. But it also failed. Now General Xu is also in a desperate situation. The Han army that has eliminated the new army of Bai Qi is attacking General Xu from two sides. In front of the general, the cavalry of the Han people also cut off the way back. General Xu just sent a letter for help, hoping that his majesty can send reinforcements to take him back to Xianyang.”

Reinforcements? Think of the word. Even Gouyi knew that it was impossible, and now the whole Xianyang. The real army is only more than 30,000 people, which is the emperor’s last capital. The remaining hundreds of thousands of people were just young men who had just picked up weapons and went to rescue Xu Yahua, afraid that they would run away halfway on the way.

Sure enough, there was no sound on it. I don’t know how long it took before a few extremely low sighs came. Gouyi widened his ears and heard Lu Chao say in a dreamlike tone: “It’s up to fate, let him go. If you can come back, you can’t come back. If you don’t come back, you can’t come back. It’s the same for both sides. .”

Gou Yi knocked his head silently, stood up, and walked out slowly. Hearing these words, he knew that His Majesty the Emperor himself was already desperate.

The demise of Da Qin was only a matter of time.

Back to the headquarters of the Eagle Department, there is still a busy scene here. As Lu Chao’s core and most trusted secret force, the Eagle Department has gathered the last subordinates who are loyal to Lu Chao.

Even though everyone thinks that Daqin will face the fate of destruction, the people here still stubbornly believe that they are not without a chance to comeback. Look at the current Xianyang perimeter defense. They are still strong and strong, and the arsenal has rushed past day and night. To make artillery, almost everyone in Xianyang was mobilized to build fortifications. Whether forced or voluntary, they all contributed to Xianyang’s defense. The materials were bad, and the treasury was gone, so they asked the people directly. , Demolish houses, move furniture, what you need, what you need, the current Xianyang city is in a mess, many houses have been demolished, stones and girders have been demolished to build fortifications, almost everyone’s iron and bronze have been taken away. Go, even if it is a needle, these things have been melted into molten iron, and then turned into a low-quality cannon. In order to collect enough materials for making gunpowder, every family’s hut in Xianyang City was scraped through.

And all of these were completed by the Eagle Department.

They are confident that the Xianyang defensive circle composed of thousands of artillery pieces will be unbreakable and unbreakable.

As their supreme leader, Gou Yi was naturally impassioned and confident in front of them, but deep down in his heart, he knew that there was nothing to fight in this battle. He is not like those low-level and silly loyal subordinates, he has his own judgment and analysis, and he is also a good leader.

With a heavy heart, he pushed open the deepest part of the yamen, the door in front of the long alleyway, on both sides of the deep alleyway, inside rows of wooden fences, confined prisoners with withered faces and wounds all over.

Seeing Gou Yi appeared, both sides of the roadway suddenly became lively. Those begging for mercy, yelling, crying and crying for injustice, went all the way to the ears, Gou Yi turned a deaf ear, and went straight to the deepest part of the roadway.

Some of these people are the Reformists who opposed Lu Chao, that is, officials from the Wu Qi faction of the former chief assistant, but some tried to collude with the Han to leave a way for themselves, and now they are all members here.

There is an iron gate at the deepest point, and two eagle soldiers sit at the gate. Seeing Gou Yi walk in, both of them stood up and bowed to salute.

“Open the door!” Gou Yi waved his hand.

The heavy iron door opened from inside. In the room, only an oil lamp was lit, and a man was lying on his side on the straw in the corner. Hearing the creak of the iron door opening, the man turned around and squinted his eyes. Look at Gouyi.

Gou Yi walked in, and the iron door closed behind him. Gou Yi walked to a small table in the room and looked at the empty bowl on the table. “You have a good appetite, but you have finished eating.”

The man got up from the ground and he laughed: “Although it’s worse than pig food, it’s better than starving to death, isn’t it? It feels uncomfortable to feel uncomfortable with your stomach.

Gou Yi sat down and looked at the other person: “Master Tang, your heart is really wide.”

The man walked to the small table and sat down with the light shining on his face. It turned out to be Tang He from the National Security Bureau of the Han State. This is an veteran spy who has served since the days when he opened the stone city. At that time, the Department of Military Law had been steadily increasing over the years. He was already an independent member of the National Security Agency. After the founding of the country, Dahan suddenly disappeared without a trace, but he did not want to come to Xianyang.

“Of course my heart is wide, because I know that we will definitely win.” Tang He laughed and said, “I saw you today, General Gou, and my confidence is even stronger. Is our army already under the city of Xianyang?”

Gou Yi was silent for a moment, “Although he hasn’t arrived under Xianyang City, it’s coming soon. Just a few days ago, your army had just surrounded and wiped out the 50,000 new army in Bai Qi. All Bai Qi’s army died, and his whereabouts are unknown. ”

“Then only Xu Yahua is left, but I’m afraid he won’t be able to come back, right?” Tang He laughed.

“What’s funny about you, don’t you think that the faster the Han army comes, the sooner you will die?” Gou Yi said coldly.

Tang He laughed disapprovingly, spreading his hands together: “General Gou, although you were a renunciation in our business, you are still a companion. Do you think we people take life and death very seriously? You are here today to end up with me. Why didn’t you bring fine wine and food? The last meal should be a little richer. You won’t be so poor that you don’t even have this thing? Forget it, in fact, I still want it. Thank you for being caught by you and being locked up here. Although you don’t see the sky and turn the day and night upside down, you didn’t torture me and make me suffer. I also want to thank you. I am different from you. You are a general. I was born with rough skin and thick skin, but I am a white-faced scholar, with thin skin and tender skin, and I don’t know how to fight.”

Facing Tang He’s jokes, Gou Yi didn’t make a sound for a long while, but just sat in silence.

“Aren’t you here to kill me?” Tang He looked at him in surprise You didn’t see that Lu Chao was gone, and were you ready to surrender to our big guy? ”

His question was joking, because Tang He knew very well that Gou Yi was Lu Chao’s most loyal subordinate, and it was absolutely impossible for him to surrender to the big man.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Gou Yi’s face changed, “I will never surrender to you.”

“Then why did you come to see me today? Isn’t it just to see me?”

Gou Yi took a deep breath and looked at Tang He: “I am here today to let you go. Of course, I also have something to ask you.”

Tanghe was startled immediately.

“I am a Gou family. I have inherited the family from this generation. There are five brothers who are benevolence, justice, courtesy, wisdom and trust. To this day, I am the only one left. Our five brothers are doing their best for Daqin. Only the eldest brother. There is still a child left, I will let you go, you take him away, so that he can live the rest of his life safely, how?”

Tang He looked at Gou Yi with a hint of pity in his eyes. (To be continued.)
