Chapter 51: Number One in the World

The entire Qi Kingdom seemed to have their backbones broken at once, and they all stared blankly at Xiang Shaolong.

After this decisive battle, Xiang Shaolong felt like he had been reborn, and intuitively he had become a saint. From now on, he is the "No. 1 in the world". There is no more "Sword Master" in the world, only the "Sword Master".

Xiang Shaolong's momentum reached its peak, not only at the top of the court, but also at the top of the world.

Xiang Shaolong did not stay in Qi State any longer and set off back to Xianyang.

What greeted Xiang Shaolong was a grand welcome ceremony. The hero returned in triumph and the King of Qin personally welcomed him out of the city.

Even when the siege of Hangu Pass was first solved, there was no such treatment. It was because Cao Qiudao's reputation was too great. If others dared to call themselves number one, some would be dissatisfied. However, Cao Qiudao has been the number one in the world for many years, and all the heroes have surrendered.

, his advantage is even more obvious than Qin's advantage over other princes.

Xiang Shaolong's battle destroyed the spirit of the Qi State in one fell swoop. From then on, the Qi State lost Tian Dan and the military force Cao Qiudao. Its significance was no less than a war to destroy the country. It also made the Qin State's prestige even greater than before. It even led to the return of the country.

The journey was safe and no one dared to twist his beard.

When the King of Qin saw Xiang Shaolong, he grabbed his arm without waiting for him to salute, and laughed and said: "Shaolong has greatly increased the prestige of our Qin people in Qi State. From now on, this holy land for martial arts practitioners will be in our country."

Great Qin."

Xiang Shaolong said: "Your Majesty, you have over-honored me. I'm just lucky that I didn't die."

Prince Zheng said excitedly next to him: "Master, you still said you have nothing to teach me?"

"Eternal literati and knights' dream", every boy has a high regard for personal force.

Xiang Shaolong said: "What the prince wants to learn is the martial arts that can defeat ten thousand enemies. These are just small steps for me. We must not neglect our true career."

The King of Qin said: "Shaolong's kung fu is not trivial. It is more than just killing Cao Qiudao. Let's go, let's prepare a banquet and let's talk in the palace."

The King of Qin gave him a gold medal with the words "Martial Saint Sword Master" written on the front and "Heng Yong Invincible" written on the back.

Xiang Shaolong couldn't laugh or cry while holding this gold medal. This might very well be the source of his troubles in the future, but this was King Qin's wish and it was hard to refuse.

Lu Buwei followed behind him angrily. When he faced Xiang Shaolong again, he felt a little powerless and wanted to give up the idea of ​​continuing to fight for power with Xiang Shaolong.

Han Jie did not show up at all. He was frightened. With his master's strength, he died at the hands of Xiang Shaolong. He was absolutely invincible. And with Xiang Shaolong's current power, he was even beyond his reach. It seemed that he

There is no hope in his life for revenge. What he fears most is that Xiang Shaolong refuses to let him go. He has already begun to think about leaving.

Unfortunately, before he could decide whether to leave, Cao Qiudao's most beloved female disciple, Shanrou, came to Han Jie, wanting to assassinate Xiang Shaolong and avenge his master.

Han Jie really didn't want to talk about revenge anymore. The guy who killed Xiang Shaolong himself couldn't grow up. As for his master's revenge, he didn't even think about it.

Cao Qiudao challenged Xiang Shaolong because of Han Jie and for his own face. He was used to being domineering and had been running rampant for so many years. He really never thought that he would be defeated or even die.

Han Jie was so ruthless that he directly tied up Shanrou and handed her over to Xiang Shaolong.

Han Jie said: "I will never dare to be an enemy of you in the future. If someone tries to assassinate you again, I hope you will not take your anger out on me."

Xiang Shaolong asked: "You have lost the prestige of Prime Minister Lu by doing this. Aren't you afraid that he will hate you?"

Han Jie said: "I joined Prime Minister Lu to fight for a good future, but now that I am disabled, why risk my life? Besides, even if I become a noble person and have no heirs, who can I pass it on to? I plan to say goodbye.

Mr. Lu, please leave this place. I came from a royal family and am not short of money. Now that my country is gone and my body is ruined, I just want to find a quiet place and ignore these things anymore."

Xiang Shaolong said: "Then you tied up Junior Sister too simply."

Han Jie said: "She relies on Master's favor and doesn't look down on me at all. She always finds trouble with me. If she wasn't afraid of my martial arts, she wouldn't have found me."

Xiang Shaolong said: "Have you put aside your own hatred and your master's hatred?"

Han Jie said: "Your martial arts skills and status are so high that it makes people despair. I don't see any possibility of success. If you insist on revenge, you are just risking your own life. Even if you take revenge, nothing can be changed. I still

He is an eunuch, and Master will not survive."

Xiang Shaolong asked: "What about Lao Ai? Does he want revenge?"

When he mentioned Lao Ai, Han Jie became angry. If he hadn't been implicated, he wouldn't be in the embarrassment he is today. He said bitterly: "What is he using for revenge? He only had such a useful place and was cut off by the adults. Wen

No, not even Wu. He is a real loser. How dare he want to take revenge? Let's first think about how to avoid being kicked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion by Prime Minister Lu."

Xiang Shaolong could hear Han Jie's hatred for Lao Ai. Looking at his actions, he had to write the word "submit". He raised his thumb at Han Jie and said sincerely: "You have fully realized this.

This is to achieve enlightenment! Don’t worry, you will live a long life!”

Han Jie ignored the sarcasm in Xiang Shaolong's tone, bid farewell to Xiang Shaolong, went back and left a letter to Lu Buwei, and left Xianyang.

Xiang Shaolong ignored Han Jie and turned to look at the bound Shanrou. This was another woman who had a lot of entanglements with Xiang Shaolong in the original work.

She was tied up in a bit of a mess, but she still couldn't hide her pretty face. She was of medium height, but full of strength, and her eyes were ruthless, as if she was looking for someone to eat.

Xiang Shaolong untied Shanrou and looked at her quietly, not knowing how to speak. It was impossible to kill her, and it was unrealistic to take her in. He could only let her go, but he had to guard against her.

Come and cause trouble for yourself again.

Shanrou was also surprised. He let himself go without asking anything. He was so confident that he could escape his plot.

Neither of them spoke.

After thinking about it, Xiang Shaolong spoke first: "Do what Han Jie said just now have any educational significance for you?"

Shanrou snorted coldly and said: "He deserves to be here. He is not a man. He is so cowardly and ruthless. It is only right that he should be castrated."

Xiang Shaolong heard her hatred for Han Jie and said: "Your master and I are fighting in a legitimate duel. As a swordsman, he deserved his death. If you want revenge, you should challenge me normally to keep your master's reputation."

If you plot against me like this, even if you kill me, what's the use?"

Shan Judao: "You have such a high status and I can't even get close to you. How can I challenge you? Besides, my master is no match for you, and I can't kill you either."

Xiang Shaolong said: "The one who challenged you is your master. I defeated him in a normal competition, and you want to seek revenge from me. Am I not very innocent? Then if those challengers your master killed, if their disciples turn around and plot against you again

Master, Shanrou, what do you think?"

Shanju said: "I can't think so much. If you kill my master, I will kill you to take revenge."

After hearing such unreasonable words, Xiang Shaolong didn't know what to say. This is a standard "savage girlfriend".

Xiang Shaolong stared and thought for a while, then sighed: "I can't just kill you and let you kill me. I don't want to kill you either. You tell me what to do."

Shanrou didn't expect Xiang Shaolong to have such an attitude towards him, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.

The two of them stared at each other and stopped talking.

Xiang Shaolong saw that there was no way to go on like this, so he said: "I'll let you go, you can challenge me, I will accept it, don't do any assassination, you won't succeed, Han Ji has seen this clearly, and is afraid of you

He arrested you because of your inconvenience. As I said before, there is no enmity between me and your master. It is not as big as the enmity between me and Han Jie. If you kill me, it will not be regarded as avenging your master.

It’s considered revenge for Han Jie.”

Xiang Shaolong was not afraid that she would stab him and hurt him, but he was afraid that she would be hurt by his guards. His guards were experienced in many battles and would show no mercy in their attacks. They were all a group of emotionless killing machines.

Shanrou turned and left without saying a word.

Xiang Shaolong didn't care whether she listened or not. He really couldn't kill her. No matter what, the matter could only end here.

Xiang Shaolong still wanted to focus on national affairs. He suggested to the King of Qin that he could increase the price appropriately to purchase grain from the lands of Wei and Zhao, with Wei as the main focus, in preparation for war at any time.

The King of Qin was really conquered by Xiang Shaolong's methods. The war was in Xiang Shaolong's hands, and he never stuck to military matters.

It is said that "before the soldiers and horses move, food and grass go first." When we arrived at Xiang Shaolong's place, the war had not yet started, so we had to cut off his food and grass. Cutting off food is a desperate plan. People depend on food. Once famine occurs, it may happen at any time.

A riot, guided by lurking spies, can directly disintegrate the enemy's army from within and cause trouble.

If the poor can be introduced into Qin, the effect will be even better.

Xiang Shaolong is implementing the grain collection plan intensively and paying close attention to the trends of various countries.

In 243 BC, news of Lord Xinling's death reached Xianyang. King Qin asked Xiang Shaolong: "Can we send troops?"

Xiang Shaolong asked him to wait, and not long after, news came that King Wei had passed away, his posthumous name was King Anli.

The King of Qin couldn't wait any longer and summoned his ministers for a secret discussion. Everyone wanted to send troops immediately and even started to study who would lead the troops.

Xiang Shaolong once again defied all opinions and had to wait.

The King of Qin asked: "When Shaolong went to Qi as an envoy, he had plans for Wei. Now that Wei is experiencing great changes, wouldn't it be a good opportunity to send troops?"

Xiang Shaolong said: "We must send out troops, but we have to wait a little longer. Now let our espionage agents get active and raise the price of grain purchases again. Last year, Gan Luo went to Zhao as an envoy and gained five cities in vain.

It is inevitable that they will not rest. The time for them to send troops to Yan State should not be far away. Let Yan and Zhao fight first. We will then secretly support Yan State with some weapons, food and grass, so that they can fall into a hard fight. Qi State has lost its courage and is afraid of our great Qin State.

, will not dare to rescue. The remaining Chu State has no reputation as a powerful country, and there is no need to worry about destroying the Wei State in one battle."

In strategizing, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away, nothing more than this.
