The bright moon dominated the world during the Qin Dynasty

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The ancient bells echoed in the valley with a melodious sound.

The rapid water flows eastward, nourishing a large river valley.

This is a magnificent era.

The Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period fought for years, and the world was at war for hundreds of years. Everyone learned their own way of survival amidst these turbulent waves.

This is also a very boring era.

At least, that's the case for Zhao Shuang.

The arrows flew quickly, causing a roar of birds and beasts.

Zhao Shuang sat under the tree, propped up his chin, and looked boredly at the strong tribesmen in the distance happily running over in search of prey.

When the spear stabbed, blood dripped, but what was gained was laughter.

For the princes and nobles, hunting is just a pleasure; but for the mountain people in this land of mediocrity, hunting is a necessary means of survival.

The valley is green and densely forested. Houses are built on a flat mountainous land along the Han River.

Along the Han River, the land of Yongchu is located at the junction of the four kingdoms of Qin, Han, Wei, and Chu, so it has always been a battlefield for conflicts among various countries.

Hanshui is a magical river.

For more than a hundred years, Qin and Chu, these two powerful vassal states, had fierce conflicts around Hanzhong, Yong, Nanyang and other places along the Han River.

Hegemony waxed and waned, and Qin and Chu interacted with each other. For more than a hundred years, Zhao Shuang's tribe has tens of thousands of people, either Qin people or Chu people.

It was not until more than thirty years ago that Bai Qi, Lord Wu'an of the Qin State, attacked Yingdu and announced the final outcome of this battlefield.

The Qin State completely eliminated the threat from the Chu State, and the conflict between the two countries entered a strategic offensive.

From then on, the vast area from Longxi in the west to Jingdi in the east was owned by the Qin State, and Zhao Shuang's tribe also completely became Qin people.

Even though time passed by, when Zhao Shuang was a child, he still heard the elders of the clan talking about the scene of him being invincible along the way following Wu'an Lord Bai Qi.

Generals like Wu Anjun were liked not only by emperors, but also by ordinary soldiers.

Of course, the premise is not to stand opposite him.

Following such a general, he has money, meat and women.

Originally, if it was just like this, Zhao Shuang would have lived a boring life with nothing to do but practice martial arts and write. Thinking about whether he would hug Brother Zheng's lap or Brother Bang's lap in the future?

Brother Zheng’s thighs are thick, but difficult to get close to. On the contrary, Bongo is much more approachable.

Zhao Shuang once had plans to move his family to Peixian County.

Until a few years ago, Zhao Shuang accidentally saved a swordsman.

This old man claimed to be the first-class swordsman in the trap. He wanted to get out of the trap, so he was hunted down.

Unlike other trap killers, this man was not tired of the life of killing, but claimed to have realized a higher realm and no longer wanted to be a slave to the sword, so he abandoned the sword.

On that rainy day, Zhao Shuang saw with his own eyes how this man killed dozens of net swordsmen, including two Tianzi first-class swordsmen, who had joined forces to chase him with his bare hands.

Zhao Shuang rescued the dying master, and he agreed to accept Zhao Shuang as his disciple.

However, Zhao Shuang soon regretted it.

This old guy taught Zhao Shuang a set of swordsmanship. After practicing it, Zhao Shuang gained forty pounds in one year.

According to this old guy, this set of swordsmanship was created by accidentally obtaining and comprehending the fragments of an ancient secret technique while he was on a mission.

He hasn't practiced yet.

The reason why Zhao Shuang gained weight was because when practicing this sword technique, the true energy would fill his limbs and bones. When the body cannot hold the excess Qi, the physical capacity will expand until it reaches a limit.

When his cultivation level rises and his sword energy becomes pure, his cultivation level will naturally increase and his weight will decrease.

"Zhao Shuang, why are you here? The patriarch called you."

On the top of the cliff, the clouds are misty.

Zhao Shuang shook his fat body and climbed up after all the hard work, he couldn't help but curse in his heart.

These old guys always like to talk to people from such a high place.

The patriarch of the Zhao family is an old guy with white beard and hair. It is said that he is a descendant of King Qin Huiwen, and he is quite old.

"Shuang'er, you're here."

These days, both the vassal states and the ministers in various places follow the inheritance system of the eldest son.

Zhao Shuang was just a concubine, but he was highly valued by the patriarch.

Zhaojiacun is a large village in the land of Yongchu. It has its own armed forces, which are somewhat similar to mercenaries.

"Old Zhao! I asked you to find a flat place next time you make an appointment to meet someone. Looking at my current situation, can I withstand your torture?"

Zhao Shuang complained. Although there was a huge difference in status between them, the head of the Zhao family didn't mind.

"You have to practice this swordsmanship yourself. Now that it's like this, who can blame you?"

It turns out that when he was slender and handsome, several village beauties in the village surrounded him. Now like this, even Cuihua in the village is unwilling to pay attention to him.

Zhao Shuang looked up at the sky forty-five degrees and sighed in his heart.

No matter which world you are in, it is a society that values ​​your appearance!

The fourth eldest son of the Zhao clan, not many people know his real name.

Zhao Laosi was a little embarrassed and smiled slightly.

"I have something, I want to ask your opinion?"

"whats the matter?"

"Since the new king of Qin came to the throne, Lu Buwei was in charge externally, and Huayang and Zhao Ji were fighting internally. In Qin, various forces were fighting with each other, and the new king's position was not stable. At this juncture, all countries were fighting Staring, wanting to bite off a piece of fat from Qin Guo's body."

Soldiers were a big problem in this day and age.

Especially for a force like Zhaojiacun, which is wandering on the fringes of various countries, and has not been wiped out by all forces, and those who have survived are monsters.

There are three thousand Jingchu brave men in Zhaojia Village, and they are the kind who bring their own armor and weapons.

These three thousand brave men from Jingchu and Chu came from generation to generation. They once followed Wu'an Hou Baiqi to capture the capital of Ying.

Bai Qi once said that these three thousand soldiers are not as brave as the soldiers under his command who go to Xihe to guard.

Xihe guarded Wu Qi, and once relied on 50,000 Wei troops to defeat Qin's 500,000 troops in a battle between Yin and Jin.

The main force of the 50,000 Wei army was the military soldiers.

After this battle, Qin was almost in danger of subjugation.

Such an army is naturally the target that all forces want to fight for.

"Han, Wei, and Chu have all had lobbyists come recently, trying to win over our clan. Especially Chu, they want to take advantage of this season to retake Nanjun."

"No!"

Although Zhao Shuang didn't know why Zhao Laosi asked him about this kind of thing, he immediately shook his head.

Just kidding, if you go against Brother Zheng now, you will definitely end up with a small budget in the future. Will it end well?

"Why?"

"Although the Qin State is in danger, its foundation has not been lost. It can defend itself in seclusion. Although the six countries are numerous, they all have their own agendas. We can rely on our terrain to stand on our own, so why do we need to get involved in the disputes of the princes? The strategy of consolidating control has been successful many times in the past. Second-rate?"

"I understand what you mean!"

Zhao Laosi nodded and waved him back.

Shortly after Zhao Shuang left, Zhao Laosi spoke slightly.

"Brother Gui Gu, how are you?"

"interesting!"

An old man walked from the side, wearing long black and white clothes, holding a bamboo slip in his hand.

The decline of the Six Kingdoms was caused not only by military disadvantages, but also by poor warfare and bribery of Qin. Bribing Qin and losing its strength is the way to destruction.

Guiguzi slowly recited the fragments of the bamboo slips, with a look of joy and sadness on his face.

"What a pity!"

"What a pity?"

"A few words, but they have the charm of my Zongheng. It's a pity that I took Gai Nie first and then Wei Zhuang. Otherwise, I would have wanted to take him under his command and teach him."

Zhao Laosi smiled, with a bit of pride on his face.

"Countries have waxed and waned, and military strategists have produced countless heroes. I, the Zhao family, have finally produced a Qilin talent in a hundred years. Even if your brother wants it, I can't bear to give it to you."

"If a good talent cannot be fertilized, it will be difficult to achieve success. Such a good talent, following you, Zhao Laosi, can only learn some tricks of war."

"What does Brother Guigu mean?"

"The Confucian Xun Kuang once owed me a favor. I wanted him to come to my valley in March and teach my two useless disciples some poetry."

Guiguzi smiled and looked at Zhao Laosi, who also smiled slightly.

"There are plane trees on the road, attracting phoenixes to perch."
