"General, a few days ago, Xiang Yu's army defeated our army at the south of Zhangshui River. Yesterday, at the battle of Huan River, our army suffered another great defeat and suffered heavy losses.”
On the left side of the lower head, Vice General Dong Yi also had a sad expression as he said dejectedly.
"The 100,000 soldiers of the Northern Lands have been completely annihilated. Even the Marquis of Martial City, Wang Li, has been captured by the rebel army. The general in Guanzhong knows that he will sit by and do nothing. No matter what, Zhao Gao will not let us off.”
"Moreover, most of the 200,000 soldiers of our criminal army are alone. If we fight for a long time, it will definitely arouse the resentment of the soldiers.”
The series of words left Zhang Han speechless. He had to admit that this was the truth.
He would not be able to escape the responsibility of the 200,000 border soldiers in the north. No matter what, he had to stand by and watch.
In terms of Old Qin's deep roots, could Zhang Han be stronger than the Great Qin's Wang Clan?
Wang Li was the only direct descendant of the Wang Clan. Even he had been tricked to death. How could the six million old Qin people in the pass let him off?
"General, the envoy of the Chu army, Chen Yu, requests an audience!”
At this moment, the general outside the tent suddenly reported. Zhang Han's expression changed drastically after hearing this, and a trace of killing intent appeared in his eyes.
He took a deep look at Sima Xin and Dong Yi, remaining silent. As the general of the Qin Country, the last pillar of the Qin army, Zhang Han wasn't stupid.
First, there was persuasion, and then there was an envoy. If there was no connection between them, even the heavens would not believe it.
"Pass on my order. The envoy of the Chu army has entered the camp. I want to see what tricks Xiang Yu is playing!”
"Yes."
........
After a while, a tall and straight figure slowly walked into the main tent of the central army. Many gazes around him were focused on him.
"Chu Army Envoy Chen Yu greets General Zhang Han!”
Zhang Han's eyes were as cold as a knife. He didn't stand up at all. He stared at the figure in front of him and said sternly,"Wei Kingdom remnant, you dare to enter my tent so openly. Do you think that this general's sword isn't weak?”
Chen Yu was a famous person in Wei. He was arrogant and had a close relationship with Zhang Er. A few years after Qin destroyed Wei, the First Emperor of Qin once ordered a reward to capture him.
"Hahaha!"
While laughing, Chen Yu didn't panic at all. Instead, he shook his head and said loudly,""Now that the world is in turmoil, does General think that it is still the Great Qin of the past?”
"Humph!"
With a cold snort, Zhang Han's killing intent surged as he pressed down on Chen Yu and said angrily,""I have 200,000 Qin soldiers in my hands. I will kill all the rebels in the world.”
"Oh? Is that so? 200,000 Qin soldiers, but why did the general lose to our Revolutionary Army time and time again? Even the 100,000 Northern Qin soldiers were beheaded by Julu, and now they are trapped in Jiyuan.”
Chen Yu said mockingly," In the past, the Great Qin had Lord Wu 'an, Baiqi, who intimidated the six countries. The First Emperor also had General Meng Tian, who conquered the world. But what about you, General?”
Hearing this, Zhang Han's face turned gloomy and his gaze turned cold. Even though he thought highly of himself, the two famous generals of the State of Qin, Lord Wu 'an Baiqi and General Meng Tian, were not people he could compare to.
Seeing that Zhang Han was silent, Chen Yu revealed a smile and said indifferently,""The powerful Lord of Wu 'an Baiqi and General Meng Tian opened up the territory of the Qin Empire and made great contributions. However, they ended up committing suicide in the end.”
"In the current era, the second emperor of Great Qin, Hu Hai, has succeeded the throne. He is extravagant and licentious. The treacherous minister, Zhao Gao, is in power. He has imposed harsh punishments and laws, causing the people to live in poverty.”
"General, don't you understand why the Great Qin Empire, which has unified the world in just a few years, has been repeatedly defeated by the Chu army?”
"Swoosh!"
A cold sword light flashed past. Zhang Han drew his sword and pointed it at Chen Yu, looking like he would kill him if he disagreed.
"After three years of fighting, the 700,000 criminal army was left with only 200,000 defeated soldiers. The heavens are about to fall, so how can we support them? If you lose, how do you think Zhao Gao will treat you?”
Chen Yu did not show any fear. Facing the cold sword light and the biting cold killing intent, he continued,
"Right now, the person who wants to kill the general is not us, but Zhao Gao, who is also a citizen of Great Qin. Only by surrendering to the rebel army and attacking Great Qin together will we be able to save the lives of these 200,000 convicts.”
Every word was like a long sword that pierced straight into Zhang Han's heart, completely exposing the worry in his heart.
What he was truly worried about was not his own life, but the lives of the remaining 200,000 criminal soldiers.
Back when they were at the foot of Mount Li, Zhang Han had personally promised that as long as they were willing to join the army and fight, they would be pardoned by Great Qin, or even given an imperial title. Their treatment would be the same as the people of Old Qin.
However, three years had passed. They had killed Zhou Wen, protected the country, killed Xiang Liang, and slaughtered Tian Zang. They had won many battles and recovered more than half of the east of the country. Only 200,000 of the 700,000 convicts remained.
He had never received the amnesty of the second emperor, let alone a reward.
In the winter of the third year of Qin II (207 B.C.).
Prime Minister Zhao Gao had completely controlled the entire Great Qin Dynasty and had sent people to reprimand Zhang Han, slandering him for not doing well in the war.
At the beginning of the year, Zhang Han's army met up with the Northern Army and surrounded the Zhao Army at Julu. The Guanzhong did not send any rations, causing the Qin Army to be defeated. One hundred thousand Northern Army soldiers died, and the Marquis of Wucheng, Wang Li, was captured. Zhang Han led the army to retreat to Jiyuan.
All these incidents had broken his heart.
