Chapter 143 Chapter 6 The Empire Strikes Back

Let's say that Zhang Han will be a general, amnesty the world, send out all the disciples of Li Shan, and start the empire's counterattack.For Zhang Han, the difficulty of forming an army capable of fighting from more than 700,000 inexperienced conscripts in such a short period of time can be imagined.But on the side of the rebel army, there are also some mobs gathered temporarily.In short, the eldest brother does not say the second brother. When the two armies meet at this time, it is not the braver who wins, but the weaker who loses. Zhang Han's troops went to Xiyi, and Zhou Wen was defeated. He withdrew from Hangu Pass and stopped at Caoyang.Zhang Han chased after him, Zhou Wen was defeated again, and fled to Mianchi again.Zhang Han continued to pursue fiercely, Zhou Wen was defeated again, the whole army broke up, and Zhou Wen committed suicide.

The empire raised troops again in two places, led by Changshi Sima Xin and Dong Yi respectively, to kill Chen Sheng in Chengfu, destroy Xiangliang in Dingtao, and destroy Wei in Linji.Zhang Han crossed the Yellow River to the north, and hit Zhao Wangxie, who was equal to the giant deer. The victory of Zhang Han and others made the whole of Xianyang cheer and optimistic, thinking that the war would end soon.Zhang Han and others led only a motley army, and they had achieved such a brilliant victory. When the Wang Shi came out, the autumn wind would naturally sweep the fallen leaves, and it was extremely relaxing and freehand.

As everyone knows, the victory of Zhang Han and others is just a poignant ornamental note in the last elegy of the empire. However, we should not blame Li Si and others for misjudging the situation.In fact, even the insurgents themselves probably would not have believed that the huge empire would suddenly collapse, and that the final victory would belong to them. After all, the myth of the Qin army's victorious victories left a deep impression on people, especially those people from the Six Kingdoms who have personally experienced the bravery of the Qin army.And the current battle situation, as Jia Yi analyzed:

"The world is not small or weak; the land of Yongzhou is solid and self-confident. The position of Chen Sheng is not respected to the monarchs of Qi, Chu, Yan, Zhao, Han, Wei, Song, Wei, and Zhongshan; , It is not as good as Juju's halberd and long scorpion; the people who are suitable for garrison are not the teachers of the nine kingdoms; the way of far-sightedness and foresight, the way of marching and using soldiers, is not the same as the soldiers of the past." "Trying to make the kingdom of Shandong and Chen Shengdu long and prosperous, and to compare power and strength, they should not be the same age."

Back then, the foundations of the six countries all had hundreds of years of painstaking efforts, and finally died at the hands of the Qin State.Today's mere thieves are insignificant. Press the turbulence on the battlefield ahead, let's pay attention to the imperial rulers in Xianyang. The last court meeting was really not a wonderful experience for Hu Hai.Under Li Si's coercion, if he had thorns on his back, he felt like a puppet at the mercy of Li Si, and could hardly breathe.He could clearly feel the disdain in Li Si's eyes at that time, and saw the ridicule on the faces of all the officials at that time.Introspecting afterwards, he realized the cleverness of Zhao Gao's strategy more and more. He really shouldn't have gone to court and made a fool of himself in front of all the officials.

On the other hand, Zhao Gao was humiliated by Ting Yi, and he was completely suppressed by Li Si in front of everyone.Now, his only weapon is to hug Hu Hai's thigh tightly, so that Li Si can't snatch Hu Hai away again.Zhao Gao said that Hu Haidao said, "The former emperor ruled the world for a long time, so the officials did not dare to do wrong and engage in heresy. Now that your majesty is rich in spring and autumn, and has just ascended the throne, how can he decide the matter with the court? There is a mistake, and the officials are weak. Also. The Son of Heaven called me, but I never heard of it."

When Hu Hai was complaining about himself, it happened that Zhao Gao reiterated his plan, and the two hit it off immediately.The young Hu Hai resolutely bid farewell to the officials and threw himself into the arms of Zhao Gao alone.
