It could be said.
Without Meng Mingshi under Old Mu, the Great Qin Empire would not have been reformed.
In reality, Meng Mingshi, whose surname was Bai Li, was the son of Bai Lixi, a famous minister of Great Qin.
Who would have thought that this Xiao Pass general, who had barely been described in history, would actually have such a background? It was truly surprising.
"General Meng, let's not waste time. The rebel army is close at hand, and the Qin country is in danger.”
"I only ask you, how many soldiers are still available in Xiao Pass?”
Meng An could not help but tremble when he met the new Emperor Ying Feng's sharp gaze. His expression was extremely solemn as he solemnly saluted Ying Feng and continued speaking.
"Your Majesty, due to the special geographical location of Xiao Pass, which is located between Lantian and Wu Pass, it was proposed to be abolished many years ago.”
"A few days ago, the Lantian camp sent 3,000 men to Xiao Pass. Now, there are only 10,000 soldiers in the pass.”
Ying Feng heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.
The rebel army had yet to break through the Wu Pass, so the crisis had yet to arrive.
With 10,000 soldiers, it would not be too much of a problem for them to temporarily protect Xiao Pass.
"General Meng, you should have heard of the current situation in the world. The war is raging in the east of the country, and all the rebel soldiers are eyeing my Qin country covetously.”
"Liu Bang's rebel army has already advanced into Wu Pass. As an old Qin man, I don't ask much of you.”
"Behind you are the six million villagers in Guanzhong. Once the rebel army breaks through the pass, they will have no way out!”
Hearing this, Meng An's expression became even more solemn. He understood that the Great Qin Empire had swept through the six countries and unified the world.
He had a deep blood feud with the Six Nations, and it was impossible for him to be amicable. The hatred that had accumulated for generations could only be washed away by killing.
Once the enemy entered the pass, the old Qin people would not be spared!
Feeling shaken, Meng An took a deep breath and calmed his mind.
Then, he turned to Ying Feng and respectfully gave him the highest form of respect. With the determination to die, he said,"Please rest assured, Your Majesty!" I am here, Xiaoguan is in my hands, I will certainly live and die with Xiaoguan!”
"Don't worry, Great Qin will not perish. With This Emperor here, the world will still belong to Great Qin!”
"This vast land will always belong to us, the people of Old Qin!”
Ying Feng looked at Meng An and ordered in a deep voice,""The only thing you have to do is to do everything you can to guard the pass. Don't let anything or anyone shake you!”
"From now on, there must be sentries patrolling the surrounding mountains 24/7. Even if this Xiao Pass is a bird, it must not fly over without my permission!”
"General Shui Cang, General Shi Wanshui, and General Cai Guan, General Mai Tiezhang, have already led a hundred thousand troops to Wu Pass!”
"As long as the rebel army Liu Bang dares to attack the city, they will definitely pay the price in blood. I have decided to personally lead 15,000 light cavalry to fight to the death with the rebel army!”
"Do you have the guts to protect the eight hundred miles of fertile land and six million people for me and Great Qin?”
Meng An was at a loss when he heard this. His thoughts were extremely complicated.
They thought that the new emperor was only going to gather the people's hearts and put on a show to go to Wu Pass to defend against the rebel army.
To be able to defend the pass, it was already a blessing from the heavens…
But how could he have expected that?
This new Qin Emperor was domineering beyond imagination.
They actually wanted to go all out and annihilate the hundreds of thousands of rebel soldiers outside Wu Pass!
When did General Shui Cang appear in the Lantian camp and lead a 100,000-strong army?
He couldn't understand everything!
However, he quickly regained his senses and promised resolutely.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty! If I die, I die!"
"This subject will never disgrace the old Qin people!”
Taking a deep look at Meng An, Ying Feng patted his shoulder and said indifferently,
"In the past, General Meng Mingshi was brave and fearless. He did not give up easily and successfully defeated the Jin army. In the end, he expanded the territory of our Great Qin and shocked the world!”
"I hope that you can inherit the reputation of our ancestors and become the backbone of our Great Qin!”
Although Meng An's ability was mediocre and he was greedy and lustful, he was still an old Qin citizen. In this time of crisis, Meng An still had the awareness of an old Qin citizen.
"Yes!"
"Your Majesty has entrusted me with this task.”
Meng An promised resolutely with the determination to die.
………
At the same time.
Liu Bang's army was still advancing.
Ever since he had split up with Song Yi and Xiang Yu in the first half of the year, he had avoided the important and focused on the trivial. He had wiped out many Qin troops and seized countless weapons and gold.
In addition, the Qin troops from Yingchuan and Chenjun were transferred to Julu by Zhang Han to defend against Xiang Yu's alliance.
The remaining ones were just some county soldiers who were responsible for catching thieves. They were all existences that were like trash.
As such, Liu Bang's army swept through the area as if they were in a no-man's land and soon approached the Internal History County!
As the famous leader of the hooligans in Pei County, Liu Bang was not stupid.
He knew his own shortcomings. He could not be as brave as Xiang Yu, who could personally lead an army on the battlefield.
Which was why he placed all his thoughts on how to buy people's hearts and expand his power.
