The Great Qin Dynasty: The egg of the Black Bird was revered as a national guardian beast.
Chapter 98 Declaring Himself King!
Most people did not expect Meng Tian's failure.
He commanded tens of thousands of Imperial Guards, possessed an imperial edict, and was both armed and bound by a strong sense of righteousness; there was no possibility of him failing.
Strangely enough, he ultimately failed.
He was immediately stripped of his post as Commandant of the Guards and imprisoned. Most of the court officials who had entered the palace with him were also purged.
This turmoil started quickly and ended just as quickly.
Apart from a few people who were interested, most people in Xianyang City were unaware that this had happened.
Of course, whether Meng Tian failed or not is no longer their concern.
All eyes were on the physician.
Or perhaps it could be said that it was placed on that Heavenly Fate Mystic Bird.
If it weren't for the matter of the imperial edict in the belt.
Perhaps they would never know that the Imperial Physician in the court was actually the incarnation of the Heavenly Bird.
..............
In front of a city.
Outside the city, under the cover of night, flickering lights illuminated tens of thousands of people dressed as commoners.
In their hands, some held farm tools, while others carried somewhat broken weapons they had acquired from who-knows-where.
But most people only carried a wooden spear.
The people in the group all looked somewhat uneasy.
Until one person stepped forward, raised a torch, and waved it at the city not far ahead.
"Break through the city and seize the grain!"
The person standing in front raised his arms and shouted.
The fear that had been building up in the people behind him vanished, replaced by a fierce look on their faces, and their morale soared.
They need to eat, they need food!
Before this, they had already captured many cities. Once they conquered this city, all the loot would be theirs.
Driven by this motivation, everyone charged forward like madmen, as if they didn't care about their lives!
Inside the city, a squad of soldiers on duty is patrolling.
The team leader stood at the front of the group, holding a long spear. He turned around and looked seriously at the people behind him.
"Everyone, perk up!"
"Recently, unrest has broken out in the nearby cities. We must not let our guard down and must quell it in time, for there will be a reward!"
The voice wasn't loud, but the meaning was clear.
Even so, the soldiers behind him merely nodded perfunctorily, "Understood."
I've heard that kind of talk countless times.
When I first arrived, I was quite excited, wanting to suppress the rebellion, receive rewards, and reach the pinnacle of life.
But in all this time, no one has caused any trouble.
He should have known this long ago. Now that the six kingdoms have been destroyed, who would dare to rebel? Ten lives wouldn't be enough to kill them!
But just then, a chaotic commotion of voices and the sight of fire suddenly came from the road ahead.
People were shouting and running around in all directions!
The leader at the front of the line frowned and raised his hand.
The soldiers behind him immediately stopped, looking around in panic, gripping their long spears tightly.
Soon, they saw who was chasing the people in the city.
Those were rioters carrying torches and wooden spears, rushing into the city, burning, killing, and looting everywhere.
"This." The captain was stunned. Looking around, he saw nearly several thousand people surging towards the city.
Are these all rioters?
How exactly did they get into the city? Where are the garrison?
Damn it, could it be that the garrison has also rebelled and chosen to open the gates and surrender? Otherwise, why would they have entered the city so easily?
Their squad consisted of only a few dozen soldiers.
Are they really going to have to face so many rioters now?
"Squad leader, what should we do?"
A soldier looked at the rioting civilians looting everywhere, then raised his eyes and asked the squad leader in front of him.
The team was looking at the approaching mob.
He swallowed hard.
He then tore off his armor, turned around, and joined the rioters in shouting, "Great Chu will rise! Chen Sheng will be king!"
Thus, they disappeared into the crowd.
The sky turned a pale white.
The city that stood there had been breached, and the magistrate's head had been cut off and hung on the city wall.
The Qin flag on the city wall was cut down and fell to the ground.
The rioters opened the city's granaries and looted everything, taking all the grain from the city.
The city was in chaos.
Sorrow, howls, and laughter filled the air!
On the city wall, a man dressed in general's armor stood watching the chaos in the city.
Only by looting all the food in this city can we succeed.
Thus, in order to survive, the people of this city had no choice but to be coerced into attacking the next city.
At that moment, a person came up from below the city.
Standing beside him, he raised his hand: "Chen Sheng."
But after saying that, he remembered that things were different now, and so he said again, "General, this city has already been captured!"
The man nodded, then turned his gaze back to the chaos in the city.
After hesitating for a moment, Wu Guang walked to his side and said.
"General, we have now captured several cities in succession. We fear that the tyrannical Qin will send troops to punish us. We should make preparations as soon as possible."
Turning around, Chen Sheng looked at Wu Guang.
After looking at him for a long time, she nodded: "Not bad, it's time to make preparations as soon as possible."
After saying that, he walked down from the city wall.
Subsequently, Chen Sheng declared himself king, calling his state Zhang Chu, and established his capital in Chen County, calling on the people to join him in overthrowing the tyrannical Qin Dynasty.
The power of example is endless.
Chen Sheng's cry awakened countless people, who then rushed to kill local officials in response to the uprising, and the whole world turned against Qin!
.............
Chen Sheng and Wu Guang launched an uprising in the name of Xiang Yan, captured several cities and took control of Chen County, and declared themselves kings, calling themselves Zhang Chu.
He declared that the people had suffered under the Qin dynasty for too long, and thus called upon the people to rebel against Qin!
The call arose, and a great number of people responded.
in the palace.
Looking at the bamboo slips in his hand, Xuan Ye sighed deeply.
He then closed his eyes, placed the bamboo slips in his hand on the table, and remained silent for a long time.
"Unexpectedly, in such a short time, this traitor Chen has already gained momentum and is gradually spreading like wildfire."
"We can't delay any longer!"
Xuan Ye stood up and looked around.
Finally, he raised his hand, and a temple servant walked in, looked at Xuan Ye, raised his hand, and bowed.
"Chief Physician, what are your orders?"
Holding his forehead, Xuan Ye waved his hand: "Summon the Left Prime Minister and the Chief of the Imperial Carriage Office to see me."
"Yes." The eunuch clasped his hands and withdrew.
Not long after, footsteps were heard, and Zhao Gao and Li Si walked in together.
The two bowed together, saying, "Greetings, Mystic Bird of Destiny!"
He smiled and waved his hand, "No need for that, just call me Physician."
As he spoke, he raised his hand: "Sit down and let's talk."
"Yes." The two of them raised their hands in greeting and then sat down on the prepared soft couch.
He rubbed his forehead, looking at the two people sitting in front of him.
"The traitor Chen has occupied several cities and now has established his capital in Chen County, declaring himself king and calling his state Zhang Chu. He has already gained considerable power!"
"I wish to send troops to attack them, but I do not know who should be appointed as general."
Li Si raised his hand and said.
"The unruly people are out of control and may be misled by the authorities. We should quickly send an army to quell the unrest and deter future disturbances!"
Xuan Ye nodded, understanding Li Si's meaning.
In the face of such civil unrest, the only option is to act swiftly and decisively to quell it as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, the longer it is delayed, the bigger the chaos will become.
Thus, both Li Si and Zhao Gao recommended some people, but in the end, he rejected them all.
He knew that Chen Sheng was merely a pawn.
To deal with him, we don't need renowned generals like Wang Ben; how can we use such a small force?
In that case, he had a candidate in mind.
He waved for them to leave, then sat down behind his desk with a meaningful smile on his face.
Han Xin, isn't he a military genius?
In that case, let him lead the troops to quell the rebellion.
Although this was his first battle, Xuan Ye had full confidence in him and believed that he would not disgrace the army!
