"Old love, do you think I can still afford to wait?"
Seeing that Wei Liao still had a worried look on his face, Hu Hai forced out a smile.
Wei Liao couldn't help but hesitate when he heard the words. At first, he only considered that Hu Hai hastily formed an army and the imperial commander personally marched. Now when he heard Hu Hai's question and thought about it for a moment, he already understood what Hu Hai meant!
Right now it is not a question of whether Hu Hai wants to send troops to Hangu Pass, but a question of having to send troops! Unless Hu Hai really abandons all places except Hangu Pass and huddles in the middle of the pass as he previously thought!
Obviously, Hu Hai has given up on this idea now! Not only because he has a clearer understanding of the strength of Da Qin in the past month or so, but more importantly, the changes in history make Hu Hai wonder how much history will be changed in the future!
"Old Ai Qing, please help me think about how to proceed with my personal expedition!" Hu Hai said to Wei Liao.
"Old minister, I obey the order!"
"Han Xin!" Hu Hai turned his attention to Han Xin!
"The general is here!" Han Xin hurriedly bowed and responded.
"You can enter the camp today and start training with the soldiers from tomorrow!"
"The general will obey the order!"
"Then, dear friends, just go and do your own business. I'm tired!" Hu Hai rubbed his forehead tiredly after saying this!
"Your Majesty, please leave!"
When Wei Liao, Ying Yi and others heard Hu Hai's words, they quickly bowed and prepared to leave!
"Yingyi, report to me as soon as the black iron arrives! Well, go and invite Shangfang Tian Aiqing to Bashang. I have something to explain." Hu Hai stopped Yingyi and warned him.
"Here!"
…
It was already Haishi (seven to nine o'clock in the evening) when Tian Ren arrived at Bashang Camp from Xianyang Shangfang!
An hour later, Tian Ren came out of the tent with a serious look on his face. No one knew what Hu Hai and Tian Ren had talked about. After Tian Ren left the tent, he immediately hurried out of Bashang under the protection of several dragon guards.
Rush back to Xianyang from camp!
It happened to be Mao hour (from 5 a.m. to 7 a.m.) when Ying Yi carefully woke Hu Hai up from his sleep.
No need to ask Hu Hai to know that Black Iron must have arrived. Hu Hai took the wet wipes from Ying Yi's hand and covered his face. The warm wet wipes immediately lifted Hu Hai's spirits.
Hu Hai slept very hard this night. From the moment he closed his eyes, his mind was filled with the scene of tens of thousands of Qin soldiers dying on the battlefield and Wang Li's dark face. Large swaths of red filled the dream. Until he was woken up by Ying Yi!
"Let Heitie come in!" Hu Hai, whose face was covered with a wet towel, whispered.
"Here!"
"The last general, Black Iron, pays homage to His Majesty!"
Heitie strode into the tent and bowed to Hu Hai, who was leaning on the couch.
Heitie left the Bashang Camp on the third day of May. He led more than two thousand selected soldiers from the scout camp with their own unique skills. Before he could start training at the destination chosen by Hu Hai, he received a flying letter from Yingyi, and again
Hurry back to Bashang camp.
Although he didn't know why His Majesty the Emperor summoned his scout battalion back in such a hurry, his intuition told Kurogane that something big must have happened, so he asked His Majesty the Emperor to summon them back before they could start training.
Kurogane wasn't very talkative, so he didn't ask why after seeing Yingyi.
"Thank you, Hei Aiqing. Did Ying Yi tell you what happened?" Hu Hai asked, tearing off the wet wipes in his hand and throwing them on the copper case.
Heitie was still wearing a simple black armor, without a sword on his waist. Ever since the last time Hu Wujing held a sword in the main hall of Xianyang Palace and tried to kill Kong Yu in front of Hu Hai, Hu Hai had ordered that no one should be there.
When he was summoned, he was carrying a sword!
His body was still upright, but he could not hide the look of exhaustion on his face, and his black armor was also stained and dull.
Heitie strictly abides by Hu Hai's training methods. He didn't let the two thousand scout battalion officers and soldiers get much rest in two days. After receiving Hu Hai's order, he rushed back all night. The soldiers of the scout battalion, including Heitie, had not slept for a day and two nights.
.
"Your Majesty, it will be easy for me, General. Master Ying did not tell General what happened!" Heitie bowed.
"Oh, General Wang Li went south to Jiujiang and died for his country in the battle of Huaihe River two days ago! Our Qin Dynasty has lost more than half of its more than 100,000 men. I don't know whether these people are alive or dead at the moment! Commander Chen and other counties in the hinterland of our Qin Dynasty are now
No more soldiers can stop the rebels from moving north!" Hu Hai said calmly.
Although he had already thought that something big had happened on the way back, Heitie never imagined that it would be such a big thing! Especially Wang Li's death, which would cause an earthquake throughout the Qin Dynasty!
But Kurogane couldn't figure out what his two thousand or so untrained scouts could do.
As if seeing Heitie's doubts, Hu Hai continued: "Are the two thousand scouts and soldiers who came to the Bashang camp with you?"
"Your Majesty, there are a total of 2,222 people in the scout camp. They have all returned to the camp!" Kurogie said respectfully.
"Well, Ying Ying chose a secluded school ground. I have something to say to the soldiers in the scout camp!" Hu Hai turned to Ying Ying.
The school field chosen by Yingyi happens to be the simple football field where Wang Qian and others played football last time. It is in the deepest part of Bashang Camp and surrounded by fences. It is indeed a secluded place!
Hundreds of dragon guards stood around holding torches, lighting up the entire football field!
When Hu Hai, dressed in black robes and a black gold cape, led Ying Yi and Heitie appeared on the field, the more than two thousand soldiers of the scout battalion who were standing quietly on the football field and full of complaints due to exhaustion immediately started to stir slightly.
Obviously no one expected that His Majesty the Emperor had come in person! The complaints and complaints that the two thousand or so scout soldiers had because they were called up to stand on the school grounds without any rest were all swallowed up immediately, and then they all knelt down in unison.
He said: "Welcome Your Majesty!"
"Ping Shen!" Hu Hai stopped at the edge of the football field and shouted loudly!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
There was a sound of armor. More than two thousand soldiers stood up one after another!
Most of the soldiers in the scout camp were selected from the more than 400,000 prisoners. They had glanced at His Majesty the Emperor from a distance during the selection process. But now the aloof His Majesty the Emperor was standing in front of them, less than twenty steps away from them.
.
Being able to see the noble Emperor at such a close distance made the body and mind that had been trained by the black iron exhausted. The more than two thousand soldiers of the scout camp suddenly felt hot in their hearts, and their tired and limp bodies seemed to be filled with strength! All of them stood upright.
, looking eagerly at the heroic Majesty the Emperor not far away!
Hu Hai looked at the Da Qin scouts who had straight military postures but could not hide their tired faces. He was greeted by their fiery gazes, and his eyes became moist unknowingly!
Hu Hai seemed to see in these Great Qin scouts the shadows of the more than 100,000 Xianyang guards who he originally looked down upon and sent to follow Wang Li southward! But it was these Xianyang guards who he looked down upon that made him aware of it.
What is faith, what is life and death!
And in front of these soldiers who were originally prisoners and now became Great Qin's scouts, their eyes told me that they were also invincible warriors of Great Qin, and they would also die for themselves and for Great Qin!
Hu Hai suddenly realized that he would feel ashamed if he said the extravagant words he had planned to these people right now!
Because they don't need to be bribed or tempted by themselves, they will fight to the death for themselves and for the now precarious Qin Dynasty like the more than 100,000 Xianyang guards!
"Wait..." Hu Hai's voice was hoarse and choked, and he suddenly found that he didn't know where to start!
"Win one, show the flag!" Hu Hai turned to face Win one.
"Wow!"
Ying Yi raised his hand and released the rolled-up flag in his hand and raised it high!
A black brocade tooth flag on a three-foot-long flagpole appeared in the night sky. On the black brocade more than one foot long was a golden bird with fluttering wings completely embroidered with gold silk. It was completely visible and lifelike!
Black bird!
This magical bird with a chicken head, a swallow's chin, a snake neck, a fish tail, and a long tail with five-color patterns is the totem beast of the Great Qin Empire, the Black Bird!
"Today, I will officially give you the name of Black Bird to our scout camp!" Hu Hai said loudly, pointing to the black brocade Black Bird tooth flag that was blowing in the morning wind. In the firelight, the golden Black Bird followed Hu Hai.
This finger seems to break through the flag and come out, roaring proudly for nine days!
Heitie obviously didn't expect that Hu Hai would be the first to show up today.
What a huge honor it is to name this scout camp with only a little over 2,000 people after the totem black bird of the Great Qin Empire!
Today, among the army of the Great Qin Dynasty, there are only two armies, the "Hu Ben Army" and the "Xuanwu Army", which were given names and flags by Hu Hai himself. The "Hu Ben Army" is now just a title without a single soldier!
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!" Kurogie knelt down on one knee and bowed after being shocked!
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!"
More than two thousand soldiers from the scout camp, or "Xuanniao" soldiers, all knelt on one knee and shouted in unison!
"The name was originally supposed to be given to you on the day you returned from training, but why did I give you the name today and wait for Heitie to inform you later! From today on, Heitie will be appointed as the Lieutenant of Xuannio Military Academy, Zhonglang General of the Great Qin Forbidden Army!" Hu Hai
Loudly!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Heitie was stunned for a moment when he heard Hu Hai's words, and then said respectfully. His voice was still calm, but his lowered eyes were more determined than ever at this moment!
"After you complete the registration, you will receive from Shangfang the armor and equipment for the Black Bird Army! I hope that you will not live up to the reputation of the Black Bird, the national beast of Great Qin, and that you will not live up to my expectations!"
"The soldiers of Xuannio Camp are willing to die for Your Majesty!" Heitie said firmly!
"I am willing to die for Your Majesty!"
…
There are only three people in the big tent: Hu Hai, Ying Yi and Heitie.
"Immediately after dawn, you lead more than 2,200 soldiers of the Xuannio Battalion to find Lord Tian Rentian in Shangfang to receive armor and equipment! Tian Aiqing will tell you how to use various weapons at that time!
This time, the more than 2,000 people in your Xuannio camp will be divided into ten groups, one group of 200 people. I will order Yingsi to select 200 dragon guards for you from the fourth lieutenant of the dragon guards. Each group will have 20 people. They will assist you.
You train. Before reaching the boundary of Chenjun, you and others will train while marching.
After arriving at the boundary of Chenjun, the Xuanniao Battalion immediately dispersed and rushed to the five counties of Chenjun, Sishui, Nanyang, Dangjun, and Donghai. There were two groups in each county. You can use any means to attack and kill, harass the rebels, and stop them.
