One of the youths said to the soldier beside him.
"That's right. We'll protect you later and make sure you're fine.”Another youth said.
"Meng Tian, Meng Yi, am I as weak as you think?”
"I don't need your protection. I shoulder the hopes of my ancestors. If I'm protected by you all along the way and my ancestors see this, how can I face them?”
The young soldier who was protected in the middle said firmly, his eyes filled with determination.
Seeing this…
Naturally, he knew who the three of them were.
The one in the middle was Ying Zheng, and the two on the left and right were Meng Tian and Meng Yi.
Under the decree of Ying Qi.
Meng Ao arranged for the three of them to be soldiers of the Forward Strike Battalion. In this army, other than themselves, no one knew their identities.
No one would think of their identities.
The two grandsons of Great Qin's Crown Prince and Great Grandmaster General Meng Ao were both soldiers.
"In short, Crown Prince, please be careful.”
Seeing Ying Zheng's determination, Meng Tian and Meng Yi did not try to persuade him.
The march continued.
Under Meng Ao's command, the army bypassed many of the border cities of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and headed straight for Gongyi, the capital of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
Meanwhile, in this place.
In Gongyi.
In a tavern.
Many scholars gathered and discussed Great Qin's army.
"Have you heard? The Qin country has already sent troops to attack our Great Zhou.”
"So what? "Now, the world will belong to the Qin country sooner or later. This time, the emperor plotted to attack the Qin country and was found out by the Qin country. Perhaps this is the fate of our Great Zhou.”
"Ai, in this world, the Qin country is ultimately the strongest. Even if the so-called alliance between the various countries succeeds, it doesn't feel like anything good will happen.”
"There's one more thing. Have you heard? It's related to the Qin country."
"What is it?"
"I have a relative in Xianyang of the Qin country. He heard a piece of news that the ancestor of the Qin country is still alive.”
"Forget it, this news has been circulating throughout the world. That ancestor of the Qin country has always been alive. However, I don't know if this is fake news that the Qin country deliberately released. After all, that ancestor of the Qin country has already lived for more than a thousand years. He might have already fallen. The reason why they released the news that he is still alive is probably to intimidate the other countries.”
......
In the tavern, the scholars were all discussing. They maintained a calm attitude towards the Qin Country's attack and did not panic like the ordinary people of the Zhou Country.
Among the countries in the world.
The Qin army had the strictest military discipline. If it wasn't a country that was a mortal enemy, any actions of massacring a city or killing would be restricted. Moreover, the Qin country valued talents and wouldn't wantonly kill.
While these scholars were discussing, they did not notice a handsome young man in a black robe sitting in a corner of the tavern.
He was Ying Qi from Xianyang.
He had been in seclusion for many years and had not entered the world.
Now that Great Qin had attacked the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, although it had only destroyed a small country, Ying Qi also wanted to see the battle situation. Of course, his main focus was still to protect Ying Zheng, the descendant he valued.
"Eastern Zhou, if I remember correctly, you should have another trump card besides the nine cauldrons, right?”
Ying Qi looked at the palace of Zhou Country thoughtfully.
At this moment.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Outside Gongyi, a fierce battle cry suddenly sounded. It shook the heavens and the earth, and the entire Gongyi City could hear it clearly.
"Not good, the Qin army is already at the city gates.”
"No way, how can they be so fast? Could it be that so many cities at the border had been breached by them?”
"Impossible, no matter how strong the Qin army is, they wouldn't be this fast unless they charge straight for Gongyi and ignore the border cities.”
"You're right, the Qin army didn't attack the border cities, but directly attacked my Gongyi.”
......
After the battle cry, a scholar ran into the tavern in a panic, causing everyone to be shocked.
"How dare they charge straight at Gongyi? Aren't they afraid that the armies of the other countries will come and trap them?”
"The Qin army is led by the Great Grandmaster of the Qin Country, Meng Ao. It's inevitable that they will take risks. If we really let them succeed, our Great Zhou will really be finished…"
The scholars in the tavern were all shocked by Great Qin's attack on Gongyi.
"Looks like Lu Buwei and Meng Ao aren't stupid. They know that if they attack Gongyi, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty will be in their hands.”
Ying Qi listened to the discussion in the tavern, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"Quick, quickly go up to the city and defend."
"The Qin army is already at the city gates and will attack at any time.”
"The king has ordered all soldiers to defend the city. We must not let the Qin army break through the city.”
Outside the tavern, the sound of soldiers clashing could be heard. Many Zhou soldiers quickly gathered at the city pass. The sudden attack of the Qin army had clearly caused everyone in Gong Yi to panic.
Gongyi City is on the pass.
Dong Zhoujun looked down the city wall with a solemn expression. His Zhou Country's civil and military officials were all pale.
The 100,000 Qin soldiers were at the city gates, and the black armored flood was ready to attack the city.
Their plan of gathering soldiers to defend Gongyi and using a small portion of their soldiers to defend the border Cities to slow down Great Qin's army had failed.
