I tried my best to help Zulong, and finally got my wife

"Your Majesty Yingming!"

"Hehe, but the widow actually thinks that you are the best candidate."

"My lord, do you want to exhaust the minister to death?"

Ying Zheng: "..."

The two talked about it in the middle of the night. Zhang He had supper in the palace, and Ying Zheng sent a carriage to take Zhang He home. This was also Da Qin's only one.

Tomorrow, Wang Ben will lead the army to arrive outside the city of Xianyang, and Ying Zheng is going to lead all the officials to meet the triumphant army in person.

However, Zhang He came early, and Ying Zheng had a very tough attitude. He insisted on letting Zhang He go to the army and be greeted by all the officials.

Zhang He couldn't beat Ying Zheng, so he had to agree.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang He took his guards to the barracks outside the city.

However, not all 30 troops have the honor of being greeted by hundreds of officials in person. There are only [-] troops here, and these [-] troops are all soldiers who have made great contributions on the battlefield.

From ordinary soldiers to senior generals.

Of course, hundreds of thousands of troops were stationed in Daliang and Yangcheng to deter Chu and Qi.

The rest of the soldiers had already been dismissed, and went home to harvest their crops.

Any further delay, and the wheat would be broken in the field.

In the barracks, Wang Ben, Li Xin, Qiang Li, Yang Duanhe, Meng Tian, ​​Zhang Tang and others were waiting for Zhang He. When they saw Zhang He coming, they stood up one after another and clasped their fists in salute.

Zhang He returned the salute and said with a smile: "Everyone has worked hard."

Then his face became serious, and he said: "Later, the king and the officials will be at the gate of the city to welcome you into the city. I hope that you will cheer up and let the king and the officials, as well as the people of the entire Xianyang City, see Come to the kind of heroism when we kill the enemy."

"Let's return triumphantly, and we must look like a triumphant return. We must let the king and the people of Daqin see a trump card army that can not only win the battle, but also have strict military discipline. We must let the people of Daqin feel safe and trust us." We, adore us..."

"Do you have the confidence to do it?"

Several generals, as Zhang He said, were full of enthusiasm. Everyone threw their heads and blood on the battlefield. On the one hand, they wanted to earn military merits and have a worry-free life. adore them.

"Yes, please rest assured, General!"

"Okay, now I will make arrangements. The 10 people will be divided into three teams and enter the city in batches."

"First of all, the [-] infantry, led by General Wang Ben, led by Zhang Tang and Yang Duanhe, will be greeted by the king and all the officials first."

"Secondly, [-] crossbowmen and shieldmen (including large crossbow and continuous crossbow troops) will be led by two generals, Meng Tian and Qiang Li."

"In the end, Li Xin and I led [-] light cavalry and [-] heavy cavalry to welcome them."

"Let me say one more thing, the morale must be high, and the spirit must be high."

"The end will be ordered!"

"Okay, let's go down and arrange it! Gather the army and wait for the king's military order."

"Yes!"

The sun finally came out. Today, the people in Xianyang City, the merchants closed their shops, and the farmers put down their farm work even during the busy season. They left the city early and waited for the army dozens of miles outside Xianyang City.

Looking from a distance, there are huge crowds of people, the defenders and patrols of Xianyang City, all came to maintain order, fearing that there may be troublemakers or spies from the Six Kingdoms among them.

Yingzheng's chariot drove away from the palace in a mighty way, followed by all the civil and military officials, and arrived at the gate of the east city of Xianyang.

Ying Zheng was dressed in a black robe, imposing, and slowly got out of the car, looking into the distance, there was a sea of ​​people.

The people saw Ying Zheng coming.

Immediately, the people erupted in deafening shouts, with a momentum unprecedented.

"Great Qin is mighty, Great Qin Wannian..."

"Great Qin is mighty, Great Qin Wannian..."

Then, everyone bowed and saluted: "My lord, my lord, Wannian..."

Yingzheng's face turned red with excitement. This is the people of Daqin, and this is the people of the widow. He clenched his fists, looked around, and said loudly: "Subjects of the widow, please join the widow to welcome the sharp warriors of Daqin!" Triumph!"

"Great Qin Wannian, Wannian..."

The ten-mile long pavilion, both sides of the road, the mountains and plains, are full of crowds, but at this moment, everyone held their breath and looked towards the end of the road.

The warriors of Daqin have returned in triumph. Among them are their children, their husbands, and their fathers...

However, war is cruel, and whether they can still see their relatives depends on God's will.

Chapter 288 The triumphant return of the army, the shock of the subjects of the Great Qin Dynasty

On the tens of meters wide road, the black and red Daqin infantry formation appeared in everyone's sight.

Headed by General Wang Ben, riding a tall horse with a resolute face, he came slowly. Behind them were Daqin soldiers in battle armor holding long spears or spears. They stepped on neat steps and their faces were also extremely firm.

Then, a loud and powerful military song rang out: "It's said that you have no clothes, and you are in the same robe with your son..."

At this moment, no matter whether it is ordinary people or civil and military officials, all the two groups are fighting, feeling their scalps go numb, and their blood rushing to their hearts, and they can't help singing along.

Wang Ben came in front of Ying Zheng, jumped off his horse, stepped forward quickly, and said loudly: "My subject, Wang Ben, I have seen the king."

"I did not disgrace my mission, led Daqin Erlang, fought for more than seven months, destroyed Zhao, took down Wei, and expanded the territory of Daqin."

Ying Zheng blushed, stepped forward slowly, helped Wang Ben himself, and said with a smile: "On behalf of the subjects of Great Qin, I thank you all."

"Without you, there would be no Daqin today. You are the biggest contributors to Daqin!"

"With all of you throwing your heads and blood on the battlefield, Daqin has today's peace."

Ying Zheng waved his hand and shouted, "Please enter the city to rest..."

"Thank you king!"

The [-] troops behind them shouted in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Wang Ben turned and left, led the horse, and walked slowly towards the city gate, followed by the fifty thousand troops behind him.

In this way, the phalanx of 5 people walked for half an hour before it finished. During this period, the people around looked at the majestic infantry phalanx, their eyes were red, and some young people swore in their hearts. , Next time, I must join the army.

Some old people also thought in their hearts that when their children or grandsons grow up, they will be allowed to join the army, serve the Great Qin, and expand the territory for the Great Qin.

Boom boom boom!

Then, Meng Tian and Qiang Yan led [-] crossbowmen. They pushed the installed crossbows, continuous crossbows, catapults, and siege vehicles, and they came slowly.

The three-meter-high large crossbow, and the two-meter-high and one-meter-wide continuous crossbow with baffles were like ferocious beasts, extremely ferocious.

The first feeling that gives people is fear.

"what is that?"

"I do not know!"

"My God, when did Daqin have such a big weapon? What is this thing for?"

An old man with gray temples next to him, with a long scar on his face, looked a little scary, he said lightly: "Old man, I have been a soldier all my life, and I have never seen such a sharp weapon, but Old man, I guess that this should be a long-range crossbow from Daqin, the kind that can shoot through war horses."

The people next to him looked at the old man in surprise, and one of them asked, "What is the one with the baffle doing? Look, there seem to be more than a dozen holes!"

The old man smiled and said: "The old man guesses that it should be used for archery."

At this time, a fat old man in silk and satin said with a smile: "I know that I have heard from a few friends that Daqin invented a continuous crossbow that can shoot twenty bolts at once. That's it."

"Several people quickly looked at the chubby old man and asked: "What about the big one? "

"It's called a big crossbow. It can shoot crossbow arrows as thick as rafters, and a single arrow can destroy a house. Let alone people, people will be skewered in front of the big crossbow."

hiss……

Everyone made a surprised sound, but they were even more proud, feeling that it was an honor to be born in Daqin.

Behind the big crossbow troops, followed by catapults, siege vehicles, and huge weapons, let the people of Daqin realize how powerful Daqin is today.

Then came the bow and crossbow team. The soldiers carried quiver on their backs, wore long knives on their waists, and held bows and crossbows in their hands.

Another half an hour passed.

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the earth trembled suddenly, and everyone was shocked. What happened, did the earth dragon turn over?

But in front of everyone's eyes, there were black cavalrymen.

These cavalry, whether they were horses or soldiers, were all wrapped in black armor from head to toe. Every time the horses took a step, the ground trembled.

Everyone present was stunned. What kind of army is this? I have never seen it before. When did Daqin have such terrifying cavalry?

Ying Zheng's eyes shone, and he saw the heavy armored cavalry approaching slowly, and his body trembled uncontrollably. Is this the widow's heavy armored cavalry?

It really is mighty.

It's not that he hasn't seen heavy cavalry before, but when he saw them, there were only a few dozen of them, but now there are 5000 of them together, which gives people the impression that they are shocking.

No wonder, Zhang Qing wanted to establish this kind of heavy cavalry with his life and death. It turned out that this kind of cavalry was simply an existence that was looked down upon on the battlefield.

This is the backbone of the Great Qin and the most important arm of the Great Qin.

The heavy armored cavalry came in front of Yingzheng like a torrent of steel. Zhang He and Li Xin dismounted, wearing heavy armor, and slowly stepped forward: "My minister Zhang He (Li Xin) has seen the king."

"The two lovers are dead."

"Hahaha, this is my Daqin's heavy armored cavalry, it is indeed mighty."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment."

Ying Zheng boarded the chariot, looked at the heavy armored cavalry, and said loudly: "My sons and daughters of the Great Qin Dynasty, I welcome you to return in triumph."

"With you here, the widow is very relieved, and the people of Daqin are very relieved."

"The mighty Qin Dynasty..."

"Great Qin mighty... Great King Wannian..."

The heavy armored cavalry raised their three-meter-long spears, waved them and roared.

Ying Zheng turned around and said to Zhang He, "Lead the sons of Daqin into the city..."

Zhang He returned to the side of the horse, rode on the horse, and waved: "Entering the city..."

"Why don't you say that you have no clothes, and you share the same robe with your son..."

In the loud and powerful military song, Daqin's heavy armored cavalry was in front, and the light cavalry was behind, slowly heading towards Xianyang City.

Chapter 289

In the evening, Yingzheng hosted a banquet to welcome the soldiers who went on this expedition. Of course, those who can come here are all generals, and those soldiers can only eat in the barracks.

However, the old man Ying Bing of the royal family slaughtered [-] sheep and contributed [-] altars of good wine for the soldiers to have a good meal.

The Ba family of Bashu, a wealthy businessman in the Great Qin Dynasty, provided a thousand shi of grain, five thousand jin of sugar, and one hundred thousand yuan for the consumption of the soldiers.

There are also some merchants who donated cloth, or other things...

This kind of responsible approach made Ying Zheng very pleased, especially the old man Ying Bing of the royal family, who seemed to be enlightened, and Ying Zheng greatly appreciated it.

At the same time, let people spread the word that the soldiers of Daqin will remember their donations, and the people of the world will also remember their donations.

This kind of quality with positive energy is worth advocating.

As Zhang He said, when one party is in trouble, all parties support it. The whole country is like brothers and sisters. Unity, friendship, and sharing weal and woe can make Daqin stronger and more united.

Zhang He was drunk, so drunk that he didn't know how he got home. This was the first time he got drunk in Daqin.

The main reason is that he is happy. Daqin is thriving and developing in a good direction. He also has a contribution to this, and what makes him most happy is that there will be no wars in the future, so he can be a rich man. Daqin lived a prosperous life for a lifetime.

Outside the Xianyang Palace, a huge square has been built. On the square stands a ten-meter-high stone tablet, which is very majestic. This is the Daqin Hero Memorial Square. The public losers started building.

On the inscription, there were seven large characters written in a pen and ink: The Monument to the Heroes of the Great Qin Dynasty was written by Ying Zheng himself.

Ying Zheng said that tomorrow, he will lead hundreds of civil and military officials, as well as tens of thousands of soldiers, to engrave their names there for the martyrs who died this time and in the past, for future generations to look up to, and let future generations remember their happiness. Life is what these people bought with their lives.

This approach will further inspire the soldiers to be brave and invincible on the battlefield, because they know that their dedication can be remembered in history.

At the same time, Ying Zheng issued an order, which was directly written into the Great Qin Law, but anyone who made contributions to the Great Qin, in addition to rewards and titles, also had to leave their names on the hero monument in this square.

Of course, the credit for being able to go to this monument to heroes is also quite great.

But what is certain is that the person who opened up the territory for the Great Qin will definitely have his place.

However, Zhang He did not participate in this grand event, because after he woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day. After asking Uncle Liao, Uncle Liao said that the meeting was over.
