Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!
Chapter 202 Meng Tian’s body was brought to Xianyang!
At this time in Xianyang City, at the location of the north gate, a carriage was slowly entering Xianyang City. The wheels were rolling, making crisp sounds, as if the wheel of history was moving forward.
Many soldiers had already stood on both sides of the road, their postures were upright, their expressions were solemn, and the weapons in their hands were flashing coldly. They were neatly arranged in two rows, like an indestructible line of defense, guarding the peace of the city.
Not only that, there were also many generals and officials on both sides of the road. These people were of prominent status, some were wearing gorgeous official uniforms, and some were wearing mighty battle robes. They were all the elites of the Qin Dynasty.
At this time, a carriage was slowly entering the city, carrying a coffin. The coffin was engraved with exquisite patterns and words, looking solemn and sacred. It symbolized the achievements and glory of General Meng Tian, and would be forever engraved in the long scroll of the history of the Qin Dynasty.
The leader, wearing armor but with white silk wrapped around his head and waist, was the image of Yi Xiaochuan. His eyes were firm and deep, revealing an unspeakable sadness. His steps were heavy, as if he was carrying the future of the entire Qin Dynasty on his back.
At this time, the entire Xianyang City, from the court officials to the common people, was talking about it. They were full of respect and regret for this brave and fearless general. Basically, those who could stay in Xianyang City were either high-ranking officials or old Qin people. Old Qin people had a strong sense of belonging to the Qin Dynasty.
Meng Tian, the pillar of the northern border of the Qin Dynasty, was unfortunately ambushed and killed by the Xiongnu soldiers during the battle with the Xiongnu. This was definitely a huge blow to the current Qin Dynasty.
This incident shocked many people. The reason why this scene can happen now is because Qin Shihuang specially gave this treatment to the Meng family. This is both an honor and a responsibility. Qin Shihuang hopes to express his respect for General Meng Tian in this way.
As for the tragic and heroic performance of Yi Xiaochuan at this time, it was naturally to deal with this situation. When the carriage arrived at the Meng family mansion, a team of soldiers had already been waiting at the gate of the Meng family mansion.
This was also necessary. Although Meng Tian was dead, the necessary scenes were absolutely necessary, which naturally included the setting up of the mourning hall. When the mysterious man pretending to be Yi Xiaochuan just returned to the gate of the mansion, he immediately dismounted and walked directly to a general in front of the gate of the mansion, and then saluted directly.
"I, Yi Xiaochuan, pay my respects to General Wang Ben"
The person at the gate of the Meng family mansion at this time was Wang Ben, the son of Wang Jian, Marquis Tongwu, and the commander of Qin Shihuang's imperial guard. It is true that Meng Tian was indeed famous, but compared with Wang Ben and Meng Tian, he was not much different. It was just that Wang Ben was not as famous as Meng Tian, not because he had less achievements than the other, but because he had a father, Wang Jian, who was above him.
Wang Jian, one of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, conquered six kingdoms. Wang Jian participated in and directly commanded the war to destroy five kingdoms. This alone was enough to overwhelm everyone. Needless to say, the value of his deeds is so great that even history's evaluation of Wang Jian is that destroying five kingdoms was not Wang Jian's limit, but the limit that the Qin Dynasty could bear at that time.
Even if Qin Shi Huang trusted Wang Jian, his achievements were still too great. It can even be said that the territory that Wang Jian had conquered directly or indirectly since he set out on the expedition was twice as large as that of the original Qin. Of course, war does not only depend on the achievements of the main general, but also on the comprehensive capabilities of all aspects. Without the logistical support of the Qin, the trust of the monarch, and the right generals to assist him, Wang Jian would certainly not have been able to do it alone. However, it is also undeniable that Wang Jian's contributions were great, while Wang Ben seemed a little mediocre because of his father's brilliance.
In fact, Wang Ben led his army to attack Chu. Afterwards, Wang Ben led an army of 600,000 to attack Wei, besieged the Wei capital Daliang, and diverted the water from the Honggou Canal of the Yellow River to flood Daliang. After Daliang was broken, King Jia of Wei surrendered. After taking all the land of Wei, Wei was destroyed. He then led his troops to attack Liaodong of Yan, captured King Xi of Yan, and destroyed Yan. Then he turned back to attack Dai, and captured King Jia of Dai. Yan and Zhao were completely destroyed, and Wang Ben was ordered to lead his army south to attack Qi. Wang Ben learned the lesson of underestimating the enemy and failing in the fight against Chu. He avoided the front of Qi, went south from Yan, took advantage of the opportunity, and went straight to Linzi, catching the people of Qi off guard and causing them to quickly collapse. The Qin army captured Linzi in one fell swoop, King Jian of Qi surrendered, and Qi was destroyed.
The Northern Frontier Army is indeed one of the most powerful troops in the Qin Dynasty, but the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Guard will only be stronger, not weaker. The Imperial Guard near Xianyang, which is close to 200,000, is in Wang Ben's hands. This shows the degree of trust Qin Shihuang has in Wang Ben.
At this time, the mysterious man had to be polite to Wang Ben, because he was the hidden boss in Xianyang City. Everyone in the court knew how loyal Wang Ben's family was to Qin Shihuang. Even Li Si did not dare to look for Wang Ben easily to avoid arousing Qin Shihuang's suspicion. Wang Ben was the hidden boss in Xianyang City, and Qin Shihuang would not send Wang Ben out for ordinary matters.
The death of Meng Tian also made Qin Shi Huang very distressed, otherwise he would not have allowed Wang Ben to appear in the modern times to appease him.
"General Meng Yi, you don't have to be polite. His Majesty has issued an order to posthumously confer the title of Marquis of Anguo on Meng Tian, and at the same time promote Meng Yi to the title of General Zhenbei, temporarily taking over Meng Yi's military post and garrisoning the northern border."
"Meng Yi obeyed the order"
Listening to Qin Shi Huang's reward, a bright look appeared in the eyes of the mysterious man. Now everything is happening according to the established situation. Before Meng Tian died, Meng Yi's military achievements had been reported a lot. In addition, Yi Xiaochuan, the current Minister of the Imperial Chariots, hinted at him, and Meng Yi's identity as a member of the Meng family, which finally prompted Qin Shi Huang to issue this order.
Although it was only a temporary replacement, the mysterious man was very satisfied. As long as the goal was achieved, there was no need to worry about the details of reputation. Now everything was basically ready.
"General Meng Yi, please accept my condolences. Your Majesty also praised General Meng Yi for his heroic feat of defeating 30,000 Xiongnu with only 5,000 men. You are indeed worthy of being a descendant of the Meng family. I'm sure General Meng Tian would be very pleased if he knew about this."
"Thank you, General Wang Ben. What I have done is not even a fraction of what my brother has done. We are all serving the Qin. If I have any problems in the future, I may have to bother you again."
"It's okay, it's okay, let's get down to business first."
Listening to the mysterious man's compliments, Wang Ben nodded, and then asked the mysterious man to deal with Meng Tian's body first. The reason why the mysterious man wanted to talk to Wang Ben was because the planned plan had basically been completed, and the only thing left was the last step, which was Wang Ben. Wang Ben was a die-hard fan of Qin Shihuang, and he had 200,000 imperial guards in his hands.
