On the eastern border of the northern border.
Wang Li's army of hundreds of thousands.
A scout named Ran Min had killed many enemies.
Wang Li made an exception and promoted him to the position of a hundred commanders.
Ran Min had only joined the army for a few days before he was promoted to a hundredth commander.
He would become a role model for the soldiers in the army.
Many soldiers rubbed their fists and wanted to be like Ran Min.
He immediately went into battle and killed the enemy.
......
Yuyang County City.
The bugle sounded and the war drums sounded.
Hundreds of thousands of the Empire's elite soldiers lined up in an orderly manner.
Meng Tian stood at the front of the drill ground and loudly read out the deeds of the Yuyang County garrison and Bai Ze.
Hearing this, the defeated troops of the various prefectures blushed and felt extremely ashamed.
The 800-strong team led by Bai Ze naturally became the focus of attention.
Liu Le and the others held their heads high and puffed out their chests, looking extremely proud.
Bai Ze was still expressionless and unperturbed.
"Ding! Mission completed. Rewarding 20000 Slaughter Points.”
"Current Slaughter Points: 20318 points!”
Bai Ze's eyes lit up when he heard the system notification.
This was because this was the most he had gained so far.
At the front of the drill ground, Meng Tian had just finished reading Bai Ze's achievements and was giving him a reward.
"General Bai Ze has done well in resisting the enemy and has defended the strength of our Great Qin!”
"I'll give you another three ranks of nobility, and you'll be promoted to the eighth rank!”
"At the same time, you will be promoted to lieutenant and command ten thousand soldiers!”
"This appointment is issued by General Meng Tian and will take effect immediately!”
" Thank you, General Meng Tian." Bai Ze cupped his hands at Meng Tian.”
From then on, Bai Ze joined the army for less than a month and repeatedly made outstanding achievements.
From an ordinary soldier, he had been promoted all the way to the current rank 8 duke and commander-in-chief.
Such an experience was spread by the hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
Yes, Bai Ze had become a legendary figure in the army.
......
Several days later.
Outside Xianyang City.
A fast horse approached from afar.
" Beijiang intelligence, quickly dodge!"
The soldier on horseback shouted and passed through the Xianyang City gate like a gust of wind.
......
Xianyang Palace.
In the Emperor's bedroom.
Ying Zheng sat in front of the dragon table, writing quickly to review the memorial.
"Your Majesty!"
"An urgent message from the Northern Borderline."
Zhang Han's voice came from outside the door.
Ying Zheng stopped writing the brush in his hand, paused for a moment, and said,""Send it in."
Zhang Han pushed open the door and entered with a report in hand.
He respectfully handed it to Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng shook his head and said,"Read it out."”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Zhang Han nodded and spread out the information in his hands.
"A few days ago, Meng Tian and Wang Li's army had yet to reach the northern border.”
"And the eight counties of the northern border were invaded by the Hu on a large scale one night.”
"Seven of the prefectures were taken by the Hu and fell into enemy hands.”
Hmm?
Hearing this, Ying Zheng frowned.
His aura gushed out, and a chill instantly descended on the bedroom.
Even though he had prepared for the worst, it was just a guess.
From the reports, they found out that the Hu had really started to attack Great Qin's borders.
Furthermore, he had taken down seven out of the eight counties in one battle. How could Ying Zheng not be furious?
Zhang Han was holding the information at the side, his heart trembling with fear.
At the same time, he cursed in his heart that the border guards were too disappointing.
He had been so easily defeated by the Hu, and now he had to face the might of the Emperor.
Hmm? Zhang Han was stunned. Seven out of eight counties? What about the other county?
Zhang Han's eyes lit up when he looked down.
This was good news.
In the bedchamber, Ying Zheng was surrounded by a cold air.
Zhang Han shivered and continued to read the information.
"Only Yuyang County, with the help of a young general named Bai Ze, successfully defended against the enemy's attacks several times…"
Zhang Han paused.
The name sounded familiar.
Bai Ze?
Oh right, wasn't the person guarding Wu Anjun's tomb also called Bai Ze?
These two Bai Ze, could it be…The same person?
And...
While Zhang Han was thinking, Ying Zheng also felt that the name Bai Ze was familiar.
"Zhang Han, you told me last time that the young man guarding Lord Wu 'an's tomb is called Bai Ze?"”
When Zhang Han heard this, he withdrew from his thoughts.
" Yes, Your Majesty." He hurriedly nodded at Ying Zheng." That young man is Bai Ze."”
"Furthermore, he also happens to live in Yuyang County.”
"If I'm not wrong, these two Bai Ze are the same person.”
Hearing this, Ying Zheng's eyes lit up, and the anger he felt earlier dissipated a little.
He stood up and said thoughtfully,""In that case, this Bai Ze is not only interesting.”
"He is also quite proficient in leading troops to battle. Only Yuyang County was successfully defended when the eight counties at the border were attacked.”
"Yes, Bai Ze, not bad, not bad!”
At this moment, most of the depression in Ying Zheng's heart had already dissipated.
There was a hint of a clear haze and a refreshing feeling.
He turned to look at the distant scenery outside the window. With a nostalgic gaze, he slowly said,"In that case…"
"Wu Anjun can be considered to have a successor. I want to meet this brat more and more…"
......
Behind Ying Zheng, Zhang Han's face froze.
Lord Wu 'an had a successor?
That was not necessarily the case…
......
Ever since the last time, Ying Zheng ordered Zhang Han to investigate the incident from twenty years ago.
In recent days, Zhang Han had been wandering around and asking around, and he had obtained many clues.
One of the most important clues involved a person.
That was Lord Wu 'an, Baiqi!
It was said that someone had witnessed Baiqi sneaking into the Grand Tutor's residence on a certain night twenty years ago.
Not long after, he carried something and disappeared into the night of Xianyang.
After that, the famous Lord Wu 'an disappeared from Xianyang and even the entire empire.
Up until now, Wu Anjun had disappeared for exactly twenty years!
After Zhang Han received this news.
He still had a vague guess in his heart.
However, this matter was of great importance.
No one would believe it unless there was conclusive evidence.
Thus, after revealing his identity as Lord Wu An, Zhang Han became even more cautious.
He had to investigate carefully and not leak the news to avoid bringing death to Bai Ze at the border.
At present, he only needed one last step to confirm Bai Ze's identity.
That was to confront the Great Qin Imperial Advisor face to face!
......
In the First Emperor's bedchamber.
Ying Zheng stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back.
Zhang Han bowed and pondered.
Both of them were thinking of the same name, and that was…Bai Ze!
