The slander of the nobles of the six countries had turned Great Qin's hundreds of years of achievements into ashes.
Unifying China was a great feat. It ended the era of aristocracy since the Shang Dynasty and opened up an era of monarchical empires that lasted for thousands of years.
The First Emperor was the true hero. Because of him, China was unified, and the people could avoid the chaos of war. The Six Nations and the Revolutionary Army were just a bunch of thugs.”
........
"Gao Shun, are there any unusual movements in the Martial Pass?”
The news spread very quickly. Since the matter of the Elixir Water could spread throughout the pass, the people of Wu Pass naturally understood.
As the two most important passes of the Great Qin Empire, Han Valley was guarded by Zhang Han's 200,000 strong army.
However, there were hundreds of thousands of Liu Bang's rebel soldiers in front of Wu Pass, while there were only 30,000 Qin soldiers in Wu Pass.
Reality told everyone that this was a battle filled with danger. If they lost, Great Qin would cease to exist.
At this moment, Ying Fei had to make sure that everyone in the Martial Pass was united. Only then could she gather all her strength to fight Liu Bang.
"Your Majesty, when the people of Wu Pass heard the news of Danshui City being massacred, they were all furious. Now, all of them have become soldiers. From the fifty-year-old to the ten-year-old children, they are all armed and sworn to live and die with Great Qin!”
"Order the people inside the pass to do their best to build defensive equipment. We must ensure that the rebel army can't move an inch outside the pass.”
Ying Fei wasn't surprised by the armored appearance of the people in the city. The people in Wu Pass were all from the old Qin Dynasty. In the past, the old Qin people had come from Longxi and fought to the death to conquer this piece of land.
Today, the 800-kilometer fertile land in Guanzhong was the foundation that the Qin people had built for hundreds of years. How could they watch as Great Qin was destroyed?
Only the Old Qin people were the true foundation of the Great Qin Empire, which was why Ying Fei spared no effort to stir up the bloodlust of the Old Qin people.
"Yes!"
Gao Shun replied.
"The guards in the pass, including the imperial cavalry, will be under your command. Set up defenses. If necessary, even I can go on stage.”
"Liu Bang's rebel army will soon return to Wu Pass. The first to enter Guanzhong was the king. Now that Xiang Yu was unstoppable, he would definitely not be able to hold back.”
"Wu Pass is the gateway to Guanzhong Pass. We mustn't lose it!" Ying Fei ordered sternly.”
"Yes."
Gao Shun immediately left after receiving the order. What he had to do now was to set up the Wu Pass like an iron bucket, ensuring that no matter how many rebel soldiers came, they would not be able to break through the defense.
Looking at Gao Shun's departing figure, Ying Fei's eyes lit up.""Liu Bang, I'll wait for you here!"
.........
At this moment, Elixir Water City was deathly silent. Although the sun was shining brightly, it could not change this ghost town. The air was filled with the smell of blood.
The City Lord's Mansion in the center had temporarily become Liu Bang's main tent. The leaders of the rebel army were having a meeting in the City Lord's Mansion.
Now that things had come to this, Wu Pass had no choice but to be broken. Otherwise, the pass would become something that Liu Bang's rebels coveted but could not get.
"Reporting to Lord Pei, Xiang Yu's troops have been fighting with Zhang Han at the edge of the Zhangshui River. Now that the Qin army is weak, the Chu army is strong. In a few days, they will defeat Zhang Han's army and reach Hangu Pass.”
The sudden news broke the silence in the City Lord's Mansion. Liu Bang, who was sitting at the head of the table, looked anxious.
"Zhou Bo, why did you lose yesterday at Wu Pass?”
Facing Liu Bang's fierce gaze, Zhou Bo felt a hint of fear in his heart. However, when he thought of the black armored cavalry with the ghost mask, he was shocked to see that no one survived.
"Pei Gong, during the battle at Wu Pass, although our army had already broken through the gate, the Qin army reacted quickly.”
"More importantly, there is a mighty Qin general who has the courage to fight against ten thousand men. The thousands of cavalry under him are powerful, causing our army to be defeated and unable to fight back.”
Fan Kuai chimed in,""That's right, that Qin General is only seventeen or eighteen years old. He holds a double-edged halberd and has boundless strength. Even I, Old Fan, am not his match.”
Hearing this, Xiao He and the others were shocked. They had never expected the battle at the Martial Pass to be like this.
He had thought that it was because of the strong willpower of the guards at Wu Pass, but now it seemed that this was not the only reason.
"Everyone, the enemies at Wu Pass are not the same as before. Not only are the Qin army crazy, but even the ordinary people are unafraid of death. If not for the people in the city desperately trying to stop us, I'm afraid we would have already charged into the city that day.”
Zhou Bo's words shocked everyone. They didn't expect that after experiencing the absurd rule of Qin II, the people in the Guanzhong region were still so loyal to Qin.
Old Qin's tenacity was a real headache for the Revolutionary Army. He was an existence that the six countries of the eastern part of the country viewed as a tiger or wolf.
Once the rebel army attacked Wu Pass, they would be attacked by the soldiers and civilians of Wu Pass. At that time, whether they could take down Wu Pass or not would be a problem.
"Most of the people in the pass are from the old Qin Dynasty. It's normal for them to be loyal to the violent Qin Dynasty. Under the vanguard of our hundreds of thousands of rebel soldiers, even the sea would be torn apart, let alone them!”
Zhang Liang narrowed his eyes. There was a hint of sharpness in his long and narrow eyes.
He was someone who had dared to ambush the First Emperor when the Great Qin Empire was at its peak. How could he be afraid of a mere Qin army?
In Zhang Liang's view, the Great Qin Empire's collapse had already become a trend that no one could change.
