Chapter 31-Emergency in Longxi, White-Haired Li Xin 3）
Longxi County, Di Dao!
This was one of the important places leading to the Da Yue Clan.
The 30,000 West Garrison Army stationed in Longxi Prefecture was here.
At that moment, a white-haired, middle-aged general in his thirties stood on the Great Wall of the Di Dao. He was looking at the beacon fire burning in the distance.
The general looked to be in his thirties, but he had a head of white hair.
The West Garrison Army called him the white-haired general behind his back.
The white-haired general's luggage was called Xin!
In his 29th year, he had once roamed freely in the Yan Kingdom, chasing after Liaodong and personally taking Yan Zidan's head, forcing the King of Yan Xi to escape into the hinterland of Liaodong.
At twenty years old, Li Xin could already command two hundred thousand troops.
More than ten years ago, Qin destroyed Chu.
Ying Zheng asked in the imperial court how many weapons and armors were needed to destroy Chu.
At that time, Wang Jian replied that he needed 600,000!
600,000 soldiers was all of Great Qin's soldiers. In other words, if Wang Jian wanted to destroy Great Qin, he would need to use all of Great Qin's soldiers and armor. Moreover, he would have to wait for a year because Great Qin had just destroyed the Wei Kingdom and needed to rest for a period of time.
However, Li Xin only needed 200,000 soldiers to destroy Chu.
Ying Zheng must be an emperor who liked to deal with urgent matters, and had extremely poor patience.
Moreover, the Wang Clan was already the number one clan in the Great Qin Army. If they became stronger, no one could stop them.
The path of an emperor was nothing more than balance.
At that time, Ying Zheng had the intention to support Li Xin, to support a Li family that could fight against the Wang family.
Li Xin used a cavalry chariot.
Cavalry was a surprise attack! Good at surprise.
However, this time, Li Xin disappointed Ying Zheng.
The Chu Country's Great General Xiang Yan made use of Li Xin's frivolous weakness and let Li Xin lead the cavalry deep into the city alone. It seemed like he was destroying the city, but in fact, it was to lure Li Xin deep into the city and then lead the troops to quietly follow behind Li Xin.
After Li Xin went deep in, he attacked from behind.
Then, when the army changed direction, they would take down Li Xin's main force.
He lost 100,000 troops and humiliated the country.
In that battle, Li Si's eldest son, who was also Ying Zheng's son-in-law, Li You, died in battle.
Li Xin was unable to recover from the setback, and from then on, he guarded the border and became a general.
At the same time, his hair turned white overnight.
Everyone in the Great Qin Dynasty Hall knew that as long as Li Si was around, Li Xin would never make a comeback.
At this moment, the white-haired Li Xin was standing on Di Dao's Great Wall, frowning as he looked at the dozens of beacon fires burning in the distant horizon.
Dozens of beacon fires were lit at the same time, proving that an army had invaded the border. However, there was still no report from the scouts after such a long time, which meant that the outposts guarded by the Da Yue Clan and the Qiang Tribe had all been destroyed, with no survivors.
Was the Great Yue Clan going to start a war?
Li Xin held the long sword at his waist with one hand, and his eyes had a trace of worry.
He had already noticed the unusual movements of the Da Yue Clan long ago. They annexed the Qiang Tribe and marched west to the Western Regions.
The root cause was the Heavenly Dao Imperial Rankings.
This time, the Great Yue Clan came with ill intentions.
"Immediately send scouts to report back to Xianyang, saying that the Great Yue Clan has invaded the border and is requesting reinforcements!”Li Xin said.
"Ah?"
A questioning voice came from behind Li Xin.
The person who voiced his doubts was none other than the Governor of Longxi County, Li Tong.
Although Li Tong's surname was Li, he wasn't Li Xin's clansman.
He was the younger brother of Li Si, the Great Qin's Right Prime Minister.
Li Tong was the governor of Longxi County and was in charge of government affairs, while Li Xin was in charge of military affairs.
However, Li Tong was registered as Li Xin's senior.
As for why the two enemies were here, the answer was self-evident.
Li Xin killed Li Si's eldest son, Ying Zheng's son-in-law.
Li Si naturally wouldn't let it go. So after so many years, Li Si still wanted to keep Li Xin under him and never let him show up.
"General Li is too serious. First, there are no scouts, and second, there are no traces of the enemy. General Li, it is said that the Da Yue Clan's production team is attacking. Isn't this a little child's play? If I submit a memorial to ask for help and the Da Yue Clan's matter is like the past years, then wouldn't I be guilty of deceiving the monarch?”Li Tong questioned.
Li Xin turned around and looked at Li Tong. He was very clear that even if he explained himself, he would still be troubled.
"Lord Li, you don't have to worry. I'll submit the memorial. If there's anything, I'll take responsibility! Send the news to Xianyang immediately!”Li Xin frowned and said.
The reason why Li Xin was so anxious was because even though Longxi County was a border county, it was also a very important county for Great Qin.
After Longxi County was the internal history, and Longxi was vast and sparsely populated. Other than the Great Wall of Di Dao, there was almost no danger to defend.
And the Da Yue clan was made up of cavalrymen, so their speed was extremely fast.
Once Longxi County was lost, the Outlander Cavalry would be able to reach Xianyang in an instant and threaten the capital of Great Qin.
Although Li Xin did not believe that the Great Yue Clan could attack Xianyang.
However, if this news were to spread, the world would definitely be in turmoil.
At that time, it would not be as simple as losing Longxi County.
If it was in the past, Li Xin knew why Li Tong would target him and would more or less tolerate it.
After all, it was indeed his mistake back then that led to the deaths of so many people.
But this time was different.
Li Xin had a feeling that she would most likely die in this battle.
The Da Yue clan came with ill intentions.
"Lord Li, no matter what grudges we have between us, please do your best for the country this time.”
"The Heavenly Dao Imperial Rankings have appeared. If I'm not wrong, the Great Yue Clan's strength must have soared. The Qiang Clan and the small countries in the Western Regions are the best proof.”
"The Great Moon King can't take it lying down. With a fierce tiger by his side and his strength soaring, if he attacks, he will definitely send his entire clan to attack. His Majesty has yet to return from his eastern tour, and there is no one to take charge of the overall situation. If Longxi County falls, you and I will be sinners!”
"So I hope that Lord Li can mobilize all the soldiers to defend Longxi and Xianyang.”
"If Li Xin is lucky enough to survive this battle, he is willing to commit suicide as an apology.”
