Chapter 199 Blood spilled in Handan (1)

What if someone doesn't agree with you?

Huan still remembers that when he first started learning martial arts, his father asked him such questions.

"I will use the sword in my hand to convince him!"

My father was very satisfied with Huan He's answer. Since then, the sword in Huan He's hand has made people afraid. Not only the enemy is afraid, but the Qin people in the same camp are also afraid of it.

"Anyway, the people in Handan are not convinced by the Qin people. Meng Tian wants to do benevolence and righteousness, but I, Huan He, do not have such patience."

When Huan Shi heard that Meng Tian was strictly ordered the army not to disturb the people, Huan Shi sneered. After Qin captured the old capital of Wei, Qin drove away the original residents of Wei and moved to Guanzhong to live in the Qin people, so that the land of Hanoi was permanently preserved.

The capital of Zhao State, Handan, is located on the Fengwo Plain in Hebei. Such a fertile land was hard-working for the Qin people to defeat, but it cannot be handed over to the Zhao people as it is.

There are too many people in Handan.

"Li Xin, I want to slaughter Handan, what do you think?"

Huan He finally made up his mind, but it was a big deal, and he had to reach an agreement with Li Xin, the deputy general.

"Tubing Handan?" Li Xin was shocked and almost grabbed the wine in his hand.

"Didn't we discuss and only arrest the people of Handan who had a grudge against the Empress Dowager's family back then?"

"There are only a few wealthy families in Zhao State who have a grudge against the Empress Dowager's family."

Huan He shook his head and looked indifferent: "But no Zhao people in Handan City did not participate in the persecution of me, Qin people, I don't think there are many innocent people, everyone is guilty of it. When he besieged Handan, the Zhao people killed many Qin merchants, and this revenge is avenged."

"At that time, we were waiting for the siege of the city, the Zhao people rushed to jump over the wall, but now our army has taken Handan. Will it be worthwhile to use the sword again?"

Li Xin frowned. He was not sympathetic to the people of Zhao, but was worried about being impeached by the Censor of Xianyang. Shandong Confucian scholars represented by Mao Jiao, a native of Qi, lobbied the important officials of Qin every day and promoted ominous remarks about killing prisoners.

"Is it true that the censor impeached him?"

Huan He sneered and pointed his nose towards the north city: "Jing Su, under Meng Tian, ​​has long sneaked into Handan. Who is involved in killing the Qin people? The investigation is clear. Hehe, you don't know yet, these people are already silent......"

Speaking of this, Huan He put his right hand in front and made a pose of wiping his neck.

"Did Meng Tian really do this?"

Li Xin sat upright and leaned over to ask.

"Yes, but Meng Tian did it more secretly and found some reasons, such as bullying men and women, bullying the market, etc. If he really couldn't find a reason, Jing Su sent someone to do it secretly."

Huan He took a breath of air conditioning with his nose and touched the sword at his waist: "Meng Tian cherishes his feathers, and has the pedantic spirit of the Qi people. He likes to make so many tricks. I, Huan He, are not afraid. If you want to kill the Zhao people, you will kill them openly."

Li Xin's eyes flashed, a little hesitant. Huan He admired Wu'an Jun Bai Qi and liked to massacre prisoners. The new Guo Wei Liao not only claimed the merits of beheading, but was strictly prohibited from killing on the premise of achieving tactical goals.

Will following Huan He to kill the people of Handan offend the National Wei Liao?

"Meng Tian came all the way from Jingxing Pass in the north and beheaded a lot, and he had already reached the standard of Yinglun. But we were neither able to break through Handan first, nor could we behead Yinglun."

Seeing that Li Xin was hesitant, Huan Yi became a little angry and he strengthened his tone: "Li Xin, your former student and title have all been promoted to you. Don't you want to make a contribution quickly and strive to lead the army as soon as possible?"

······

"Forget it, one general succeeds and thousands of bones are undone. The road to famous generals is always paved with blood."

Standing in front of the Great Wall Corps' barracks, Li Xin shook his head hard, completely eliminating the distracting thoughts in his heart.

"General Li is here to visit, come in quickly."

After the camp gate opened, Meng Hu's face was filled with a smile and enthusiastically welcomed Li Xin into the military camp.

"What are Meng Tian busy with now?"

Seeing the Great Wall Corps' barracks, Li Xin was both surprised and dissatisfied. Meng Tian built the barracks like a fortress, and there was no need to do so. In Handan City, the Zhao people holding weapons had already become the dead souls of the Qin army. At this time, Handan City had no power to resist.

"The general is arranging manpower to transport military rations to General Wang's army."

Li Xinzeng taught Meng Tian's swordsmanship and was used to calling Meng Tian's name. Meng Hu didn't care and explained patiently: "Zhao Wangqian didn't know where he hid. His fire burned the siege. The people of Zhao who were not sure about it, thought it was the Qin army's setting fire. The general vowed to catch Zhao Qian."

"So what if it was my Qin army who burned it? Meng Tian was too careful!"

Li Xin felt that Huan He seemed to be right. Meng Tian always liked to give Qin army's behavior and found various reasons, but it was not as good as Huan He's knife.

"The general's idea has his own reasons."

Meng Hu smiled, not responding to Li Xin's complaints.

To be honest, Meng Hu didn't understand Meng Tian's actions before, saying that "military is the continuation of politics". If you want to kill, kill it, and be happy, how much should there be? Wu'an Jun Bai Qi killed many people, but until now, he still cannot get rid of the name of slaughter. When Meng Tian led the army to fight, he also killed many people, but the locals said that Meng Tian was benevolent and righteous.

Compared with the south city occupied by Huan Yi, the people of Handan in the north city were not so hated by the Qin army. They used to win people's hearts and used knifes. In Meng Hu's view, Meng Tian's actions were not as good as Huan Yi.

Without the army, Meng Tian could become a county guard and a herdsman. As for a general like Huan He who only knows how to use swords and swords, it would be difficult to be a county official.

As the two of them were talking, they arrived at the Central Army camp in a short while.

I saw Meng Tian facing a huge map, thinking hard.

"What's the matter that stumped General Meng of my Qin State?"

After entering the tent, Li Xin smiled heartily.

In the battle to destroy Zhao, Meng Tian led a side army, regardless of logistics, and went straight to the hinterland of Zhao, fighting very well. Meng Tian's tactics gave Li Xin a lot of inspiration. His former student was now an important minister in front of the King of Qin. Li Xin's heart was a bit complicated, but he was also happy for Meng Tian.

"The Master made fun of me, just staring at the map, thinking where Zhao Qian would hide?"

Meng Tian turned around and bowed to Li Xin. The so-called teacher for one day and lifelong teacher. Meng Tian once learned a lot of martial arts in the battle formations from Li Xin's hands, which helped a lot.

"You call me Master, that's just making fun of me Li Xin!"

Li Xin knelt on the cushion and smiled: "Like Confucius and Zeng Shen, sitting and discussing Taoism and interpreting poetry can only be called the Master. I just taught you how many days of sword skills, how can you be called the Master?"

"No matter what, you have taught me swordsmanship and I am my teacher."

Li Xin was born into a large family in Longxi, and was actually skilled in poetry and books. He was just that the Qin people read poetry and books and did not restore the political demands of Zhou rituals. Confucian scholars from Shandong were full of words and were eager to return to the era of the Saint King, so Li Xin was not interested in them.

"The teacher came here specially today, but it's not just about reminiscing about the friendship between teachers and students, right?"

Meng Tian thought about it and Meng Tian sent the food from Huan's army on time, but there was no deduction. After the two armies captured Handan, the north and south were divided and there was no war. The two armies needed to act together.

Since Meng Tian rejected Huan's request to enter the palace, the two armies have not violated the rivers and did not go back and forth. As Huan's general, Li Xin couldn't visit Meng Tian's army often.

Seeing Meng Tian so direct, Li Xin did not hide it. He tidied up his clothes, sat upright, and slowly said: "Li Xin visited the Great Wall Corps barracks today. In addition to thanking the Qin army for not having a grudge and supporting the Qin army in Nancheng, I do have one important thing that I need to discuss with you?"
