On February 28, the two armies were in charge of prisoners in front of the formation and carried out outside Lantian Pass. The Qin army escorted the first batch of Han army prisoners and about 3,000 soldiers to the formation.

"Random Old Qin, let me regain my world, and my blood will not flow dry, and I will never stop fighting!"

The low and thick Qin army war songs sounded in the drums. Compared with the sparse and spiritless Han generals, the war songs seemed particularly majestic and stunning.

Liu Bang rode a chariot with a complicated expression, standing under the Han army's central army flag, looking at the black Qin army formation ahead. Compared with the second-rate county troops in Xingyang a year ago, this Qin army under Li Yuan's command is so familiar that it makes people feel a heavy sense of oppression.

"Da Qin, Da Qin!" This shout was the sound of the Qin people in Guanzhong awakening, and their awakening would cause many bloody storms.

"The strong wind, the strong wind blows and the clouds fly. How can a brave soldier guard the four directions and guard the four directions--!" In Liu Bang's old chest, a heart that was still beating was beating violently, making him scream and shout loudly.

Since he found the first line of the song "The Song of the Great Wind" under Xingyang City last time, Liu Bang has been thinking hard, but he never thought of the next lyrics that satisfies him. Today, Liu Bang, who was inspired by the battle song of the Qin army, was unable to calm down and could not help but recite another lyrics of the song "The Song of the Great Wind".

The Han army was defeated and the soldiers were lost.

I wonder if there will be brave heroes coming to join us to defend the mountains, rivers and land of Han.

"How can I get a strong man and guard all directions!"

"The wind is rising, and the clouds are flying!"

As Liu Bang and a group of generals hummed, the Han army also shouted the Han army's military song "The Great Wind Song" created by Liu Bang according to the rhythm.

Inspired by Liu Bang's war songs, the eyes of the Han army soldiers began to be bloodshot and red. The murders and oppression of the Qin people in the past surged into their hearts like scenes, making them feel uneasy.

——.

In the Qin army formation.

The military song gradually subsided, and only the soldiers' breathing sounded in their ears.

Li Yuan was in the Qin army formation, looking at the Han army in front of him coldly. Liu Bang was born in a rampant family. The Han army generals and soldiers under his command, wearing red jackets and red scarves, also had the same rash spirit. In the face of good times, they would lose their minds and make uncontrollable absurd actions. In the face of difficulties, they would fight to the death and burst out with powerful forces that are intimidating.

"Liu Bang is worthy of being a figure who created the Han Dynasty. In such a dilemma, he can still have such inspiring means." Li Yuan was secretly alert in his heart.

"Reden prisoners!"

Accompanied by the shouts of the military marquis in the army, a very rare prisoner redemption transaction in the history of war began in front of the two armies. The reason for the situation in front of the public was mainly because the trust between Li Yuan and Liu Bang was close to zero.

One, two, three.

Team one, team two, team three.

One after another, the defeated Han army soldiers dragged their extremely tired bodies and walked from one end to the other end with a numb expression. During the period when they were captured, Li Yuan did not get tired of these excellent laborers. The large-scale project to rebuild Xianyang City would be launched after the beginning of spring, and these prisoners were responsible for the most arduous digging tasks.

The money and food paid by Liu Bang can only be exchanged for the first batch of prisoners. The remaining part will have to be filled with food and fodder transported from Hanzhong and Bashu.

This Northern Expedition was a heavy defeat for Liu Bang, which not only caused him to lose many elite generals and soldiers, but also caused him to lose the food and fodder to support the large-scale battle in the new year.

In Hanzhong and Bashu's food and fodder were not extracted in infinite quantities. It can be imagined that the promise of exempting taxes and labor from two places would not be fulfilled.

——.

The news that Li Yuan was named the Marquis of Shenwu and that the Qin army achieved unprecedented victory in Guanzhong not only inspired the soldiers in the army fighting in Yongqi, but also made the border troops who had been wandering abroad feel a sense of belonging.

March in the second year of the Xinli period of Qin.

Jiuyuan.

Outside this famous city on the frontier, the long weeds secretly sprouted new buds. On the head of the city built with bluestone, the flag of Qin State in black and white letters still fluttered.

"Shenwu Hou, mighty!" After learning that Li Yuan had rescued Meng Hu and defeated Liu Bang, Wang Li, the always arrogant general of the border army, was finally moved. Wang Li, who had always wanted to compete with Zhang Han, suddenly realized that his narrow realm was too far apart from Li Yuan.

If you change yourself, it would be okay to abandon the big benefits that are within your reach and risk being cut off to save a group of friends. It just helped each other several times. Wang Li asked himself that he did not have such a magnanimous spirit.

In fact, the reason why Wang Li did not become the first-class general of Qin like Wang Jian and Wang Ben is that it was too smooth. In his eyes, he could not tolerate others surpass him or any talented person. Wang Li, who felt ashamed in his heart, finally faced his shortcomings for the first time. For this army of generals for generations, such a scrutiny was no less than a rebirth.

As the most elite field legion of the Qin Dynasty, after the border troops headed south, they all suffered great defeats. Wang Li was frustrated, Su Jiao and Meng Hu were also furious. Now, Gao Nu's retreat has been stable, and the border generals have their own rear, and Li Yuan, a strong allied army, echoing in Guanzhong, Wang Li was immediately in a strong sense of fighting.

March 4th.

The long-awaited border army of Qin suddenly launched a large-scale counterattack against the Xiongnu tribes that raided Jiuyuan under the leadership of the border general Wang Li.

Wang Li, the border general of Qin who had made mistakes before, finally showed the style of a general Huzi. In the battle of Yinshan, the main forces of the three border troops of Wang Li, Su Jiao and Menghu took the battle together, and fought with the cavalry of the left Guduhou and Right Guduhou, who were unwilling to retreat. The border troops, which had no worries, burst out with amazing combat power. As a result, the Xiongnu, who was determined to underestimate the enemy, suffered a great loss and was expelled to the northern part of the Mobei area by the intention of proving that they were the first elite border army in Qin.

This battle for the ranch made the rich Jiubang Plain still in the hands of the Qin army. The Hetao, which the Huns longed for, with lush grasslands, was still pregnant and nourishing the border residents of the Qin army, and supported one Qin army after another.

Resist the Han army in the south and resist the Huns in the north.

After two years of fighting, Li Yuan, who started from scratch, finally grabbed a fertile foundation in the Guanzhong Plain. Although he still had to face many tests, as long as he worked together, the Qin people in Guanzhong had begun to believe that under the leadership of Li Yuan, the revival of Qin would be realized.
