Zhao Tuo looked at the small town in front of him and let out a long sigh of relief.
Behind him, thousands of Qin soldiers cheered loudly.
"Go home!"
"We are finally home!"
…
The Qin soldiers were excited and excited, with a happy smile on everyone's face.
Shan's father was still a city in the state of Wei a year ago, and was not the hometown of Qin people like them.
But for the thousands of Qin soldiers who had just traveled thousands of miles from Chu and returned from bloody battles on the battlefield, this was their home.
Because this is the city of Qin State, returning here is still far from returning to their hometown to see their relatives?
Amidst the cheers, someone didn't know who shouted.
"This time we can return safely and avoid a huge defeat on the battlefield, all thanks to the military commander! Without the military commander, we would have become lonely souls on the battlefield!"
When one person opened his mouth, thousands of people immediately started shouting.
"Yes, I heard from those Chu people that not only General Li, but also General Meng suffered a huge defeat. Tens of thousands of troops died miserably on the battlefield. If we hadn't followed the military commander, we would have died long ago."
"The military commander spared my life and brought me back to Qin. This great kindness will never be forgotten!"
"We will never forget the kindness of the military commander!"
At this moment, thousands of Qin soldiers shouted together and kneeled down to salute the young soldier on the chariot. Even the injured Qin soldiers in the rear knelt down excitedly. Regardless of the wounds on their bodies, they knelt down and saluted the young man.
Bow and thank you.
Zhao Tuo was standing in the car. When he saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel excited. He stretched out his hands to thousands of Qin soldiers and said loudly: "Gentlemen, please don't do this. Our ability to return to Qin is not the result of Zhao Tuo alone.
It is also the merit of all the kings who fought desperately, and it is also the merit of those who died in the battle, Pao Ze, who fought with his life! If there is no Pao Ze, if there are no kings, what is the use of Zhao Tuo alone? If you want to say thank you, Zhao Tuo must also thank you.
Go ahead!"
After saying that, Zhao Tuo also bowed and thanked the thousands of Qin soldiers.
"Marquis..."
Thousands of Qin soldiers were even more moved, and many shed tears.
In this era of extremely strict respect for superiors and subordinates, Zhao Junhou was able to salute and thank these small soldiers with the dignity of a right-hand concubine, saying that it was because of their strength that he could return home this time.
This kind of respect, this kind of recognition, and the sincere emotion contained in those words, how could they not burst into tears and kowtow with excitement.
"This son is not only wise and brave, he is like a god in the military, but he is also able to claim great achievements without being arrogant. He is good at caring for the soldiers and has the morale of the army. Is the former grandson of Wu nothing more than this?"
Xin Wu looked moved and murmured: "When I return to Qin this time, I will tell the king all about Zhao Tuo's achievements. He is the future of our Qin country!"
Behind the military formation, Zhong Lizhen's color suddenly changed. When he saw this scene, he couldn't help but recall the battles that Zhao Tuo had done along the way, and his admiration also contained a hint of fear.
"Although Shangzhu is brave and can defeat the Qin people, he is already old after all, and this Zhao Tuo is like the rising sun. When he grows up, who will be able to defeat Chu in the future?"
"Whoever destroys Chu must kill Zhao Tuo!"
Zhongli Mei sighed secretly in his heart. He also thought that his reputation in the Chu country was already bad. He was known as a traitor to Chu. If the people of Chu saw him, they might want to kill him.
Thinking of this, Zhongli Mei couldn't help but feel ashamed, and his desire to serve the Chu Kingdom gradually waned.
….
Lu Wan, who was a prisoner in the rear, also stared at this scene with wide eyes. He was captured by the Qin people and was ready to behead him. Unexpectedly, the Qin general who captured him did not deal with him, but just ordered him to be beheaded.
Watching the army march.
Now, Lu Wan saw that the young military commander was even more majestic and majestic with thousands of soldiers kneeling down.
Lu Wan is a hot-blooded man who always respects the strong. Seeing this scene now, even if the other person is an enemy, he can't help but sigh: "The way this person looks today is what a man would do!"
Lu Wan then thought of Liu Ji who betrayed him in order to escape. The comparison between the two made Liu Ji even more despicable and shameless. He couldn't help but be filled with hatred. He gritted his teeth and said, "If I, Lu Wan, don't die this time, I will kill Liu Ji."
Season and then quickly
Lu Wan and Liu Ji will fight until death!"
Zhao Tuoping calmed the morale of the army and led the army to Shanfu City.
The people in the city had already been frightened by the sudden arrival of this army, and now they were even more horrified when they heard their identity.
The commander of the army outside the city turned out to be the Qin general who captured Wei Dong, surrendered Lord Ningling, and led the army to attack their single father, the Zhao Junhou who was famous in Wei!
he came!
When Shan's father saw the captured Duke Pei of Chu, the guard of Fu Lizai, and the son of Duke Qi, as well as the captured Chu army flags, especially the most prominent and bright flag of General Zuo Sima, the whole Shan's father
There was a sensation in the city.
The news of Qin's attack on Chu and its tragic defeat in Chu had already spread throughout the world. There were also many people with ulterior motives in Shanfu City who were ready to provoke the Wei people to resist.
Now, there is a Qin army coming from the Chu land, carrying the power of a great victory over the Chu army. The intimidating power is unparalleled.
"Gentleman, I have asked. It is indeed Pei Gong who was captured by the Qin army. And those flags should be real. This Qin army really came back from Chu. It is said that they fought in Chu for several years.
Thousands of miles away, on the bank of Surabaya, I defeated Chu Zuo Sima’s 10,000 soldiers with 5,000 men, and captured Zuo Sima’s general’s flag, hiss..."
An old man walked into the restaurant and whispered to a gentleman in white. At the end of the sentence, he couldn't help but let out a sound of exclamation.
Not only him, but now everyone in the entire restaurant is talking about this matter.
"Zhao Tuo."
Zhang Liang was thoughtful.
He said to the young man facing him: "Gongsun Xin, Qin general Zhao Tuo has led his army here. The affairs of Wei are no longer possible. We should go to Qi."
Gongsun Xin couldn't help gritting his teeth and whispered: "Where did this Zhao Tuo come from, and he actually ruined my important affairs? It is said that this person is only more than ten years old, how can he be so powerful? What does Zuo Sima of Chu do for a living?"
Even a kid can’t beat him.”
Zhang Liang smiled and said calmly: "Gongsun, don't judge people by their age. I think Zhao Tuo may become a famous general of Qin in the future."
At the end of the sentence, a coldness flashed in Zhang Liang's eyes.
At this time, Zhao Tuo had just met Qin's new Shanfu Ling. With his respectful and horrified face, Zhao Tuo asked him to provide enough food, clothing and food for the army outside the city, and to write the instructions written by Zhao Tuo and Xin Wu themselves.
The letter was sent immediately to Xianyang by fast horse.
"It's more than two thousand miles to Xianyang. If we speed up the horse, we can probably reach it in less than ten days. By then, your Majesty, you will know that I am back and have accomplished great achievements. You will be happy, right?"
….
Zhao Tuo saw with his own eyes a fast horse galloping towards the west, and a pretty face could not help but appear in his mind.
…
"Zhao Tuo, is that you?"
"Are you the one who made a big fuss in Shouchun and frightened the King of Chu?"
"Zhao Tuo, you are such a bastard. You have done a great job and even went to Chudu. But now that you are gone, how are you going to come back...how are you going to come back!"
"You bastard Zhao Tuo, how could you do this!"
In the Qin Palace, Ying Yinman bit her lip with her teeth, her face was sometimes happy, sometimes worried, and sometimes angry. From time to time, she cursed two rather indecent words out of anger and worry, making the surrounding maids look at each other.

This man was so bold and acted so shockingly that he led 5,000 Qin troops southward. He used some method to cross the Huaihe River and made a big fuss at the foot of Shouchun City.
It is said that he not only intercepted and killed 5,000 people of Chu general Qu Ming, but also sent his black-breasted soldiers to Shouchun, frightening the Chu king to the point where he fainted on the city wall.
Such news was like a thunderbolt in the Qin State, which was devastated by the defeat.
Qin Wangzheng even laughed out loud on the spot when he received the news. He wiped away his usual worried expression, clapped his arms and said, "What a Zhao Tuo, I really did not misjudge him!"
"Only this son can be the pillar of our Qin Kingdom! I love him so much!"
Not only the Qin Dynasty, it is said that when the news spread throughout the Qin Dynasty, everyone was extremely surprised.
Whether it was the country's auxiliary ministers such as Li Si, Wei Zhuang, Wang Wanzhi, or the military master Wei Liao, as well as Wang Bi, Yang Duanhe and other famous generals, they were all concerned about Zhao Tuo's sudden surprise attack on the capital of Chu and the frightening of King Chu.
Extremely surprised.
Veteran Yang Duanhe even exclaimed: "I have been on the battlefield for decades. I have heard that Lord Wu An led tens of thousands of troops to defeat Yanying, but I have never seen anyone leading five thousand people to sneak into the enemy's capital. Not only
He robbed prisoners and defeated the army, and even frightened the enemy's monarch. This has never been heard of since ancient times! This Zhao Tuo is so strange and magnificent!"
When Wang Jian, who was in Pinyang, heard the news, he laughed three times and ate three more bowls in one meal.
Li Xin, who was awaiting punishment in Xianyang, was stunned at the first moment he learned the news.
He stood for a long time and whispered: "Zhao Tuo must be doing this to save me. He is forcing the King of Chu to summon Xiang Yan to come back for help!"
"Zhao Tuo..."
Li Xin thought about how Xiang Yan gave up chasing him after he ran across the sleeping hill, and led his army north to raid Mengwu while sending troops back to aid Shouchun.
….
If Zhao Tuo hadn't unexpectedly attacked Shouchun, I'm afraid those ten thousand people would have chased Li Xin until they captured him.
Thinking of this, Li Xin felt ashamed and couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh: "I regret not listening to Zhao Tuo's words! If I had listened to Zhao Tuo's words, I would have been able to do what I am today!"
In the capital of Qin, countless people were shocked by the news, and countless people were delighted by the news.
Just, when the joy is over.
A question popped up in everyone's mind.
Zhao Tuo ran away to Shouchun, so how could he come back?
The intelligence sent back from people in the Chu region finally only mentioned that the Qin army fled to the east as a trick of suspicion, and the Chu King Fu Chu sent the new Zuo Sima Zhaoping with an army of 10,000 to chase him!
In front of Zhao Tuo is the eastern border of Chu that is getting farther and farther away from Qin. There are countless Chu cities that are enemies of Qin, and there are countless Chu people who are enemies of Zhao Tuo. It is a dead end.
Behind Zhao Tuo was the Chu army, which was twice as numerous as him. The leader of the army was Chu Zuo Sima Zhaoping, who was also a famous general on the battlefield.
When a lone army goes deep, there is a dangerous situation in front of it, and there are pursuers behind it.
Under such circumstances, can Zhao Tuo come back alive?
Everyone was silent.
Even famous generals such as Yang Duanhe and Wang Ben are not optimistic about this.
"Such a desperate situation is dangerous."
After Qin Wangzheng was so excited, his face turned extremely cold again.
Yao Jia, Zhao Gao and other close officials even heard the king muttering to himself on the couch: "If Zhao Tuo dies in Chu, I will have to bear the cud and be buried with him..."
Compared to my father's cold whisper.
Ying Yinman, on the other hand, was worried and angry after being happy.
She rubbed the silk letter Zhao Tuo had written to her again and again, clenched her little fists and threatened.
"You actually do this kind of thing without my permission, you must come back!"
"When you come back, I will beat you, scold you, kick you, and bite you!"
"Stupid Zhao Tuo, you must come back to me! You must!"
