In the magnificent Xianyang City.
A gentle breeze blew.
The news of the defeat at the front line came from the distant battlefield. Facing the siege of the Zhao and Chu armies, the Qin army retreated step by step.
Lu Buwei led the army to retreat and clear the wilderness.
Zhang Han's army was already suppressed near the Qi Lian Mountains.
The war was like fire, and the news spread to the hearts of the people, burning them into anxiety and panic.
Xianyang City, which was originally bustling with noise, was now empty.
The doors of every house were closed, and the doors and windows were closed.
One by one, the commoners looked at the magnificent Imperial City in fear. It was as if they could hear the sound of 400,000 iron hooves in the distance at any time, trampling through the rivers.
And the one who made the people most terrified, confused, and even angry was the king.
"Have you heard? The king built a sacrificial altar and mobilized 10,000 people to dig caves on the cliff!!”
"Ten thousand citizens? My King! What exactly are you doing! There's a war going on outside!"
"Not only the commoners, I heard that even the army has been mobilized. They even mobilized the swordsmiths in the army to forge a sword called the Emperor's Sword. They even built a sword-forging platform for it!”
"He even used precious copper and iron to forge 3,000 swords! Guess what? Give it to the clay figurine on the altar!"
"What? Forge a sword for clay figurines? Aren't we going to give it to the soldiers at the front line? This was too…Isn't that too extravagant?"
"Sigh!"
"Who says it isn't?"
"His Majesty said that he was going to hold a sacrificial ceremony in the near future, but who would want to go?”
"The capital is about to fall!"
The entire Qin Country, under the siege of 400,000 troops from Zhao and Chu, built the altar and the sword forging platform!
They even used the swordsmiths in the army to forge 3,000 long swords for the clay figurines to hold!
This news spread like wildfire throughout the Six Nations!
After hearing this news, countless people were stunned for a moment before they laughed out loud!
"Hahahaha!"
"I was wondering what it was. At this moment of life and death, this Qin King actually did this?”
"Building an altar and praying for blessings can be said to be reasonable, but forging a sword for three thousand clay figurines can be said to be amazing!”
"Inheriting the throne at the age of thirteen, hahahaha, Lu Buwei, oh Lu Buwei, you've been shrewd for a lifetime, but you've ruined a moment! He found such a burden to be the king of Qin!"
"I have good intentions, but to sacrifice for the victory of the Qin country, hahaha, it's useless!”
"Beautifully done. This huge Qin country, my Zhao and Chu countries will accept it!”
When the news of the clay men holding weapons and building the Emperor's Sword reached the front line, countless soldiers trembled!
When the soldiers on the frontlines heard the news, their bodies trembled and tears welled up in their eyes. They looked in the direction of Xianyang City in the distance with grief and indignation!
For Great Qin, they were going to conquer all directions!
They had sacrificed their lives for Great Qin!
They had given up everything for Great Qin and were not even afraid of death!
And now!
What is the king doing?
Build weapons and give them to clay figurines?
Your Majesty, do you know that when we soldiers are outside, a long sword represents a breath of life?
"Hahaha! Some were fighting, while others were dreaming! Some people threw their heads away, while others were surrounded by flowers in the palace walls!”
The soldiers who had been through hundreds of battles looked into the distance with tears in their eyes.
"Your Majesty!"
"What exactly are you doing!"
.................
A gentle breeze blew.
Ying Zheng, dressed in a black and golden dragon robe, appeared on the highest wall of Xianyang City. Behind him, a black-gold black bird flag was flapping loudly in the strong wind.
Ying Zheng carried a pot of wine and sat on the city wall, followed by a young eunuch who looked to be in his teens.
"Zhao Gao, do you think there are gods in this world?”
The young eunuch, who had been brought up for some reason, immediately turned pale and knelt down when he heard this.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I, I don't know."
After drinking a cup of strong wine, Ying Zheng looked into the distance, the colorless wind blowing his sideburns.
"How can there be anything perfect in this world?"
"In this world, everyone thinks that I'm possessed, extravagant, extravagant, and unrestrained."
"Everyone in this world thinks that I'm a fool, acting recklessly at this critical moment.”
"But what do they know?"
"Sacrifice to heaven and earth?"
"Sacrifice to ghosts and gods?"
"Ridiculous!"
Slowly raising his head, Ying Zheng's tone gradually changed. With one finger, he poked his own heart, while holding the wine pot in his other hand. In his eyes, which were like obsidian stones, a dazzling divine light was shining!
"In my life, I don't believe in Buddha or God!”
"I don't believe in afterlife or protection!"
"I only believe in myself!"
Throwing down the wine pot in his hand, Ying Zheng slowly rose to his feet. Under the banner of the black-gold Mystic Bird, his long robe fluttered in the wind!
"400,000 troops?"
"Let alone the State of Zhao, let alone the State of Chu!"
"Qi Yan, Han Wei…"
"Forget it!"
"Even the so-called Heavenly Court, immortals, demons, what are they?!”
Looking at the mountains and rivers in the distance, Ying Zheng's eyes shone brightly. His sleeves fluttered like clouds in the sky, and his voice was as loud as thunder, making Zhao Gao raise his head involuntarily!
"This country!"
"It's my country!"
"This Great Qin is my Great Qin!"
"I want this Black Gold Black Bird Flag to be inserted into every inch of this vast mountain and river!”
"I want everyone in Great Qin to be like dragons and live forever. I want the entire country to ascend and prosper forever!!”
"The entire world is the land of the king!"
"It's the same inside and outside the world!”
"When this matter is over, I will let the world know what an emperor is!”
The wind howled!
Ying Zheng's voice was like thunder!
It exploded in Zhao Gao's mind!
At this moment, the heroic bearing in the king's brilliant eyes under the illumination of the towering city walls was forever engraved in Zhao Gao's heart.
Even after billions of years of life, it had never been shaken.
This was what an emperor should be like!
