Chapter 88: Escape is imminent

Xianyang is like a candle in the wind.

March 1st, night, 2nd year of Qin II.

On the third day after Xianyang was oppressed by Li Yuan's army, Ying Ziying, Chen Di, Ma Cao and Feng Jing secretly planned the Tingwei Prison and Prison robbery operation went smoothly.

Li Si and Li Zheng were rescued by the disciples of Ying Ziying's mansion when Zhao Gao was about to raise the butcher's knife, and then secretly sent to Fengchang Mansion. Feng Xuanze was rescued by his uncle Feng Jing. The rest of Xingtu, who had family members, were also sent back to his mansion. At this time, Zhao Gao and Yan Le were too busy to take care of themselves, and Ying Ziying didn't have to worry. After Zhao Gao knew the truth, he would counterattack. If Zhao Gao really came, Ying Ziying would have a way to deal with it.

Over the years, the mansion has supported more than 200 guests. These people may not be able to march and fight, but assassination and ambush operations are easy to do.

Li Si and Li Zheng were rescued by Ying Ziying, and Li Yuan quickly received an interrogation from Chen Di. No matter what, Li Si did not die in Zhao Gao's hands, which was the best result.

Bloodline and family affection.

Sometimes, it’s really not something that can be cut if you want to.

Although he has no feelings for Li Si's biological father, if he doesn't go to rescue him and waits for Li Si to behead him, Li Yuan, as a modern person, cannot do it.

Li Si was weak and was not very normal when he heard Chen Di's return. There was no danger in temporarily relocating him to Fengchang Mansion, so Li Yuan didn't think about how to deal with the relationship.

Personal grudges are too small compared to the overall situation.

As the commander of the first army, Li Yuan's top priority was to unite the anti-Zhao forces in the city and quickly enter the city without bloodshed. At the same time, Li Yuan's army also needed to speed up the time to digest and reorganize the captives of the Yan army, and to join Xin Sheng and other elders to distinguish the Zhao faction among them.

Although Zhao Gao and Yan Le had only four or five thousand remaining troops in the city, they were all dead and hard-working. In other words, if they wanted to surrender, these people had already come to surrender. Those who had not surrendered so far were all ready to go all the way to the dark.

At this time, if Li Yuan leads his troops to enter the city, these hard-working people will definitely be anxious and the capital will be destroyed by then. If it slows down, letting local snakes such as Ying Ziying make a fuss and control the situation first is the most favorable result for Li Yuan.

It is not Li Yuan's purpose to destroy a capital like Xianyang from war. The foundation of Qin is here, and the hope of the Qin people is also here. If Li Yuan leads troops to the city, those remnants of Zhao Gao and other forces with ulterior motives are likely to take the opportunity to create chaos. This account will be counted on him, Li Yuan.

Central Army tent.

Li Yuan and Chen Ping each had a large volume of bamboo slips piled up on their desks. This was the basic information such as documents and household registration seized by Li Yuan instructed the soldiers from various counties in Guanzhong, and it was also the most important basis for the future governance of Guanzhong.

The old Qin people in Guanzhong still had some confidence after the continuous wars. This is what Li Yuan most urgently needs to know. Faced with the more intense battles for the world, his strategy is to accumulate strength and watch the princes fight; or to rise up bravely and lead the iron-blooded Qin army to fight for hegemony.

From a wandering army to a force that has a base area that can provide military supply, talent support and food and fodder logistics.

Li Yuan still needs to do a lot.

"General, the city has been uneasy these days. I'm afraid that Prime Minister Zhao can't sleep well." Chen Ping stretched out and raised his head with some fatigue.

The price to be the number one strategist under Li Yuan was really not small, but Chen Ping had no regrets. In the army, besides Li Yuan, his words were also of great importance.

Men want this honor.

"The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole is behind. Since Ying Ziying wants to be the oriole, we will let him do it. This deer in Qin is fat, and there are many people who like it." Li Yuan said lightly.

Qin lost his deer.

It can be imagined that the future world will be an era when heroes emerge, and it is impossible for Ying Ziying to become a king.

Ying Ziying's oriole bird is not very threatening and has no military power. Even if Ying Ziying jumps up and down, it will not cause any storm.

During the two days of waiting, Li Yuan was not idle either. He read the historical books, files, Fu books, and classics sent by various counties in Guanzhong. Not to mention Chen Ping, even Li Yuan himself felt that he had a star-eyed look. The things in front of them were still deleted and selected by Guan Yue, Hou Xi and others in advance.

Governing a country is not an easy task. At least, it is much more complicated than fighting. If Li Yuan can still have some advantages in marching and fighting with many years of military experience, he will be completely a layman when he switches to governing and oppressing the people. At the same time, among the people under his command, only Guan Yue and others, and even Chen Ping, who is very resourceful, has many shortcomings in this regard.

Learning is what Li Yuan and Chen Ping urgently need most. If they don’t want to manage Guanzhong in a mess, in contrast, Xianyang is already the meat on the chopping board, which makes Ying Ziying and Zhao Gao even more troublesome, which is more conducive to Li Yuan’s subsequent governance.

No destruction or establishment.

What Li Yuan needed was not a rigid, hierarchical, and lack of vitality Guanzhong. What he needed was a city of civilians, a city that allowed ordinary people to breathe freely, and a city belonging to him, Li Yuan.

——.

Yan Le, who was in charge of Xianyang's defense, was almost completely unaware of the secret plot of Ying Ziying and others to rob the prison. He was only alert after learning that Zhao Gao was hunted by rebels.

The situation was over, and Yan Le's backyard was on fire, and his wife Zhao Rong was very annoyed by Yan Le's opinion that she could not take away the wealth and could not take away. In the eyes of the woman, she saw her own acre of land. Zhao Rong was not in charge of the city and was full of dangers. She has been used to being arrogant and prosperous over the years, and she is reluctant to give up the wealth of the entire mansion she has accumulated.

"Madam, this has been loaded with a total of twenty cars, and the rest must be abandoned!" Yan Le paced back and forth in the mansion, his expression froze.

"No, when you leave Xianyang, who knows where to buy these best silk items and these bronze ware, but they were transported from the distant Badi, each of which is worth no less than a hundred gold." Zhao Rong's disapproving answer made Yan Le feel even more crazy. He was almost gone, and he still had some silk items and bronze ware.
