Great Qin Shi Empress

==·Send troops==

It has not been a day or two since Yingzheng wanted to attack the Xiongnu. It was just that there were constructions everywhere in the country before, and there were water conservancy projects in various places, so he could only endure it for the time being.

Otherwise, when Han Yu was injured, Ying Zheng would have sent troops to attack the Huns.

But it is not too late.

After several years of precipitation, almost all soldiers of the Qin State have been trained in modern military training methods. The personal quality and teamwork of the soldiers have been greatly improved. Coupled with the weapons that have been fully upgraded over the years, the combat effectiveness of the army is absolutely Not just doubled.

He was looking forward to what such a soldier would look like after he went to the battlefield.

Lin Qian looked at Ying Zheng, and suddenly asked: "I remember that the army has never stopped selecting and training special forces? Is it effective now?"

Ying Zheng was a little puzzled, but still looked at Wei Liao.

Wei Liao replied: "Because the special forces training method introduced earlier required too high a soldier's physical fitness, so even if the selection range of soldiers was placed in the counties and counties other than the border, in the end, only [-] troops were barely selected. It's just a special soldier in the early days."

All the people of the state of Qin are soldiers, and once they reach adulthood, all men must perform military service.

So many people in the whole country have only selected [-] qualified soldiers?

This is still only a candidate selected according to physical fitness, and at least half of them will be eliminated during training, and even half of them will be eliminated.

Lin Qian was a little hesitant. The number of people seemed a little too small?

Wei Liao didn't know Lin Qian's thoughts, and continued: "After the training of the 1000 soldiers, almost [-] were eliminated, and there are still [-] qualified soldiers. Although there are many eliminated, there is no doubt that the trained Soldiers can completely fight ten against one, and they are the strongest combat power in the army."

Lin Qian was stunned for a moment: "Only a thousand soldiers were eliminated?"

Wei Liao was a little dazed: "Yes, because these soldiers suffered serious injuries during the training, which has affected their own strength. If they persist, they may become disabled, so they can only be sent back to their original places."

Lin Qian smacked Wei Liao's words carefully, and finally realized: "Did you take the initiative to eliminate soldiers?"

Wei Liao was puzzled: "They are all excellent young soldiers, all of them are brave and good at fighting, and they are willing to serve in the army forever, why should they be eliminated?"

Lin Qian: [Because in the TV series, you have to go through five stages and kill six generals, and you can only be selected for the special forces after experiencing many dangers. 】

But the nutrition of the people in ancient times was not good enough, so it was very rare to be able to pick out [-] qualified people. These are all good seedlings that everyone in the army is vying for.

After Lin Qian figured it out, she no longer felt confused: "It's my fault."

Wei Liao was still a little puzzled.

Lin Qian has already focused on other places: "Where are the [-] specially selected soldiers for training now? How many qualified soldiers are those stationed at the border? Have you ever started training?"

Wei Liao replied seriously: "These 2 people have been training near Xianyang, and occasionally they are responsible for the safety of His Majesty; each frontier army has formed a brand new team, all of which are elite soldiers selected from the army. There are a total of 4 soldiers. many."

More than 4...

Lin Qian breathed a sigh of relief: [If there are still [-] people on the border, that would be easy. 】

Just when Yingzheng was puzzled, Lin Qian said: "The major nomads mentioned by Your Majesty have lived on the grassland since they were young, and they are very clear about every plant and tree on the grassland. If they confront the Qin army head-on, we naturally don't have to Worrying, but what if they want to run away?"

What I am most afraid of is not that they will attack Qin, and I am not even afraid that they will run away, but that they will come and come again, and come and run again.

Lin Qian said with a smile: "I just think that if you want to attack nomads such as the Huns, ordinary soldiers may not be able to play a big role. If you replace them all with special soldiers, plus a few Huns who can tell the direction may be able to play a role." To miraculous effect."

"But even if there are special forces, a small number may not be able to play a big role. That's why I asked about the number of special forces in various places."

Ying Zheng looked at Lin Qian, but always felt that she had something to say.

Lin Qian met Ying Zheng's eyes and answered silently in his heart: [About 100 years later, there would have been a genius general named Huo Qubing. He was trained by himself. It is said that he was the first special force in Chinese history. , when attacking the Xiongnu, the Xiongnu Shanyu, the Yan family and the nobles took the head. After that, "the Xiongnu fled far away, but there was no royal court in Monan", and successfully obtained the achievement of "Sealing the Wolf and Living in Xu" which was sought after by countless generals in later generations. 】

To put it simply, she just wanted to see if she could reproduce Huo Qubing's legendary experience.

Lin Qian paused: It should be feasible, right?

After all, the current Xiongnu is not the same as the Xiongnu who fought against Huo Qubing, and has been cut down by Meng Tian several times before, and many Hun tribes have defected to Qin State in the future.

Such a Hun should have no major problems?

Listening to Lin Qian's introduction, Ying Zheng felt a little pity that Huo Qubing was not born in this day.

But after thinking about it, he is not bad as a general of Qin State.

So he asked: "If you follow Gu Fenghou's wishes, how many special forces are needed in total?"

Lin Qian glanced at Ying Zheng, and said hesitantly, "Fifty thousand?"

Wei Liao and the others looked at Lin Qian in unison.

[Is this number too small?Is Gu Fenghou serious?Although special forces can count as ten, but that refers to individual combat, not a frontal battlefield! 】

5 people are too few.

However, Ying Zheng understood what Lin Qian meant. The [-] she mentioned should be the troops brought by General Huo Qubing when he achieved the achievement of sealing the wolf and living in Xuxu?

He lowered his eyelids and said, "Your widow needs to think carefully."

Yingzheng's thinking is naturally not a fantasy.

After the minister retired that day, he went directly to the barracks and saw the training routine and personal strength of those special forces in person.

After asking about their usual study content, Ying Zheng accepted Lin Qian's suggestion.

However, in the selection of generals, Ying Zheng added another Li Xin——

Comparing the two, Meng Tian is more stable, while Li Xin is more strange.

When dealing with the Xiongnu, if the two cooperate with each other, maybe they can achieve miraculous results.

Han Xin looked at Mao Dun: "Are you really going to apply for the Falcon Camp?"

The so-called Falcon Battalion is a special force that has been handpicked and trained by Meng Tian and Han Yu over the years. This force is the training method of special forces that Lin Qian brought out before, and the special forces training obtained from the modern host later. After combining the methods, the special forces are trained strictly.

The number of soldiers is small, but all of them are the elite of the elite.

Han Xin and Mao Dun were still young, so it was absolutely impossible for them to be selected into the Falcon Camp, and the Falcon Camp had nothing to do with the two teenagers who didn't grow up.

but……

Just some time ago, Xianyang came to order to make Meng Tian and others prepare for war.

At the same time, Xianyang also proposed that this battle with the Xiongnu will put all special soldiers from all over the country on the battlefield to see blood, and these special soldiers will be the main offensive force in this war.

Most of the soldiers didn't react too much after learning about this——

Although these special soldiers will become the main force in this war, it is not necessary to use ordinary soldiers like them.

What's more, everyone's life is getting better and better nowadays, and a considerable number of soldiers have lost their desire for war. Compared with making meritorious service on the battlefield, they prefer to leave their lives and go home to reunite with their families.

After Mao Dun learned of this, he couldn't accept it.

He joined the army for the purpose of participating in the war, but now he is told that he can only be an inconspicuous soldier when he goes to the battlefield, and may not even be able to participate in the main battlefield, so he is naturally unwilling.

So, Mo Dun wanted to join the Falcon Battalion.

Han Xin didn't understand: "We are still growing up, so it is impossible to withstand the training of the Falcon Battalion. If we get injured, we may not even be able to go to the battlefield."

He is well aware of Mao Dun's obsession with going to the battlefield.

It's a pity that this time, Han Xin's persuasion was useless, and Mao Dun still stubbornly wanted to join it.

Han Xin had no choice but to accompany him to find Meng Tian.

Meng Tian smiled after listening to the reasons of the two: "Why join the Falcon Camp? This expedition also needs to bring a few Huns who are familiar with the migration direction and contact information of the Touman tribe. If you are willing to lead them, You don't have to be in Falcon Battalion to be with them."

In terms of understanding of the Touman tribe, who can compare with Modun?

Mao Dun was taken aback for a moment, as if he hadn't thought of this method.

Han Xin looked at him: "Or forget it..."

But Mo Dun looked at Meng Tian firmly: "Yes, I can lead the way for you."

As soon as these words came out, even Meng Tian showed some surprise: "Are you sure?"

Mouton nodded: "Sure."

Meng Tian looked at Mao Dun: "What request do you have?"

Mao paused, and said: "I hope that my father, his Yan family, and his youngest son can be handed over to me at that time."

Meng Tian was stunned, and after meeting Shang Maodun's gaze, he was startled by the fierceness in his eyes.

Is this kid...

But thinking of His Majesty's order, Meng Tian still nodded and agreed: "Yes, I will tell the soldiers in advance that if the three of them are caught, they must be handed over to you personally."

Mao Dun was satisfied with this.

== patricide ==

A few months passed in a flash, and soon it was time for the autumn harvest.

And when the people in Jiuyuan County were at their busiest, news suddenly spread from the border that the Huns had attacked.

This is actually kind of scary.

It’s not that the Huns are scary, but the time when the Huns appear is scary——

They had never led troops to attack Qin during the autumn harvest before.

But just when the people were panicking about this, the front line soon sent back the news: the two generals Meng Tian and Li Xin seemed to have been prepared for a long time. Tens of thousands of horses pursued from two directions, and soon wiped out nearly half of the army sent by the Huns.

When the people heard the news, they breathed a sigh of relief and returned to their previous pace of life.

But for Meng Tian and Li Xin, this is just the beginning.

The two soldiers divided into two groups, and one took Maodun and Han Xin and went straight to the direction of the King's Court of the Huns. Even passing by some small tribes, they did not waste time fighting with them. Soon under the guidance of Mao Dun, he found the place where the King's Court of the Huns was located.

But unfortunately, these Huns seem to have a special ability to distinguish people by listening to their voices. A group of people got the news before Li Xin and others arrived and ran away early.

Li Xin led people to check the traces left by the Touman tribe, and his eyes fell on the fire that had not been extinguished. After walking up to observe it, he picked up a sword that had just ignited and was still in a very complete shape. Cow dung: "Everyone look around, they must not have gone far!"

A group of soldiers immediately dispersed and began to search for traces of the Touman tribe's migration.

However, in order to prevent them from chasing after the footprints, the other party used horses and all kinds of cattle, sheep and livestock to trample on countless footprints around them, making it impossible for people to tell where to go.

But at this moment, Mao Dun suddenly lay down on the ground and put one ear on the ground.

Han Xin was taken aback.

But Mo Dun got up quickly, and went directly to Li Xin: "I already know where the people from the Touman tribe are running."

Li Xin looked at Mao Dun in astonishment: "I have heard people say that some grassland tribes can tell the direction of the horses by lying on the ground and listening to the hoofbeats of the horses. It turns out that they can't even hide the movement of people from you?"

Mo Dun glanced at Li Xin: "The principle is the same."

Li Xin wanted to ask what the reason was, and he was worried that the people from the Touman tribe would run away. After some weighing, he finally decided to take people to chase the people from the Touman tribe first.

Compared with Li Xin and others who carried at most instant noodles and vermicelli on horses, the Touman tribe wanted to bring all their belongings with them when they fled, let alone cattle and sheep. animals need care.

Once you find the right direction, it's too easy to catch up.

Li Xin only led people to chase for more than two hours, and he was able to see the migrating crowd of the Touman tribe with clairvoyance.

He laughed immediately: "Brothers, don't slack off, we will catch up soon!"

As soon as these words came out, all the soldiers cheered up instantly.

Everyone speeded up, and soon rode their horses to catch up.

After chasing for another quarter of an hour, this time without clairvoyance, everyone saw the Huns who were running forward with cattle and sheep, carrying tents and other things.

The team was mighty, with at least a hundred thousand people.

But Li Xin was not afraid, and immediately ordered: "Everyone, follow the general and charge forward. Don't worry about the old and weak women and children who are behind. Go directly to chase the vanguard in front, and then divide the troops into two groups. One group will follow you." I confronted Touman, and the remaining team went straight through the middle, cut off the Touman tribe's team from the middle, and then flanked..."

Han Xin's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he immediately wanted to raise his hand to join in, but when he turned his head, he caught a glimpse of Modu's expression... It seemed that it was not very good.

But that was just a blink, and Mao Dun's expression returned to normal.

Han Xin paused for a while, and didn't care about it for the time being.

He directly rode forward: "General Li, I also want to join the battle!"

Li Xin snorted his hair in a funny way: "Anyone who has a big fart wants to join the war, let's wait for two years to grow up!"

Han Xin was dissatisfied: "I have grown up, even my father said that I have mastered the art of war, and I have already..."

"The art of war is the art of war, and this is a one-on-one battle." Li Xin looked at Han Xin, "You have small arms and legs, and you are not enough to slap those Huns!"

After speaking, he will ride his horse and leave.

Han Xin was not reconciled, and chased after him again.

After a few times, Li Xin was also annoyed by him, so he said: "Since your boy's name is the same as mine, you will follow my lieutenant general to cut off the Xiongnu team..."

After some instructions, Li Xin led the soldiers away directly.

Han Xin walked up to the lieutenant general and smiled at him.

Seeing his happy look, the deputy general couldn't help laughing for a moment: "It's okay, remember to follow closely, otherwise I won't be able to take care of you!"

Han Xin nodded naturally.

but……

He turned his head to look at Mo Dun, and was about to ask if he wanted to be with him, when he saw Mo Dun swiped his horsewhip and directly caught up with Li Xin's team.

Han Xin was stunned.

But after thinking about it, Touman, his Yan family, and his newborn son were all in the front, and it was normal for Mo Dun to want to go to the front, so he didn't bother.

but……

Han Xin looked at the deputy general: "Can you please send someone to protect Maodun? He is the prince of the Huns, and he may be in danger."

The lieutenant paused, turned his head and took a deep look at Han Xin, and then sent his own soldiers out.

……

One man swept the other tribes of the Xiongnu steadily, and soon took down other tribes of the Xiongnu who had never surrendered to Qin one by one, and then set their sights on the nomadic peoples such as Donghu, Fuyu, and Sushen to the east of the Xiongnu.

Although these nomads often went south before the unification of the Qin State, after the unification of the Qin State, they knew how powerful the Qin Army was, and they would not go south easily unless they really couldn't survive.

Later, after the mutual market, these people were even less willing to conflict with Qin.

However, who knew that the evil spirit of the Touman tribe would provoke the Qin State one after another, completely enraged the people, and directly sent troops to attack them.

But what does this have to do with them?

Donghu and other tribes planned to sit on the sidelines and watch the show. Who would have thought that the flames of war would suddenly spread to them?

Because they were unprepared, the Donghu and other tribes had no resistance at all, and were soon taken down by Meng Tian.

In the beginning, many tribes wanted to come.

But when a person from one of the tribes asked, "Can we get the same treatment as the Huns who defected to Qin after we joined Qin?", and after getting an affirmative answer, all the tribes stopped running away.

Not only did he not run away, but he also spread the news to those tribes that had not yet been attacked by Meng Tian.

So Meng Tian's subsequent "conquest" journey became fantastic——

Almost as long as he finds a tribe, the opponent will surrender directly before the official start of the fight.The most irritating thing is that these people even offered to lead him to other tribes. The reason turned out to be that they felt that Meng Tian's efficiency in finding people was too low and made them wait for a long time.

Meng Tian: "..."

It was a magical experience.

……

Meng Tian's incorporation of various nomadic peoples went quite smoothly, and Li Xin's side did not give way too much.

Although the battle lasted for several days, in the end Li Xin still won the victory in an almost one-sided situation, because after two days, the strength of the Hun soldiers who were cut off by Li Xin was greatly reduced, and their morale was extremely low. , Not Qin Jun's opponent at all.

The most important thing is that as time goes by, the combat effectiveness of these Hun soldiers will only get worse.

If it's just that, that's all. The Huns are brave, and few people surrender.

but……

Han Xin, who is narrow-minded, actually suggested to Li Xin that all Qin soldiers hold the small wooden bowls they carried with them and eat in front of the Xiongnu soldiers during the temporary truce. cook.

The fried noodles are served with rich spices, the taste is simply...

Every time it was meal time, a group of Huns were so hungry that their stomachs were growling. It is not an exaggeration to say that their eyes were red and their saliva was drooling.

After doing this only twice, some Huns couldn't bear it.

That night, some Huns came to the Qin army with their stomachs in their arms to surrender.

Qin Jun directly gave the other party two pancakes to cook and eat.

In the dead of night, the strong fragrance spread uncontrollably to the entire camp, rushing into everyone's nostrils.

The soldiers who were full were fine, they were just hungry.

But those hungry Hun soldiers...

Someone quietly came out to look, but happened to see his fellow clansmen eating noodles and drinking soup holding wooden bowls, looking very happy.

Huns:"……"

There are things, there are always two things.

So soon, countless Xiongnu soldiers came out of their tents, and then walked to the Qin army's camp.

When he woke up the next day, the general of the Huns counted the number of people: Hey, it was directly reduced by one-third!

The fighting power has plummeted, and now they can't even maintain the number of people.

How to fight this?

Morale on the side of the Huns was even lower.

General Xiongnu was angry and anxious, so he could only report to Touman as soon as possible.

then……

"Come here, Shan Yu was killed—"

Almost immediately, Han Xin turned his head to look at Mao Dun: "When did you..."

"last night."

Mao Dun said calmly, "While those people are busy coming out to eat."

Han Xin took a deep breath: "I thought you would hate Yan Shi even more..."

Mo Dun looked back at Han Xin in doubt: "I really hate the mother and son, but it's not Touman who brings all the bad luck and misfortune?"

Han Xin was about to ask, but he heard another commotion from the Huns.

He listened carefully, only to realize that it was Yan Shi and her newborn son who were also assassinated in the tent.

Han Xin looked at Mao Dun.

Mao Dun smiled, then took a piece of cotton handkerchief, stretched out his hand again and again to wipe the knife in his hand.

If you look carefully, you can still find a little red stain on the cotton handkerchief.
