One month later
"Report, General, we have spotted traces of bandits five miles ahead!" a scout came back to report.
Before Meng Yi could speak, Meng Tian, who was disguised as a general, asked, "Do you know which rebel army it is?"
"It's the one from Dongjun!" the scout said truthfully.
Hearing this, Meng Tian laughed and said to Meng Yi: "Haha, don't worry, he is one of us!"
Meng Yi was surprised and asked, "One of our own? What do you mean?"
"Wait for me here, I'll be back soon!" Meng Tian did not answer, but said.
That night, Meng Tian returned to the camp with three strangers.
After the three men took off their disguises, Meng Yi immediately knelt down and said respectfully: "Greetings to Your Majesty, Greetings to the Young Master!"
That’s right, these people are Ying Zheng, Fusu and Chen Mo.
Ying Zheng sighed, "I am no longer the First Emperor. Now I am just Ying Zheng. So don't call me that in the future, lest someone gets upset and points a sword at me!"
As he spoke, he glanced at Chen Mo, and the so-called someone was self-evident.
Fusu also said: "I am not a prince, just treat me as an ordinary person!"
Seeing that he was somewhat confused, Meng Tian hurried out to explain. After learning the whole story, Meng Yi's face was complicated: Your Majesty and the prince have both surrendered to the enemy? How can we play this game?
No, your majesty and the young master have both surrendered, so it shouldn’t be a big deal if I surrender too, right?
Meng Yi then bowed to Chen Mo and said, "Greetings, my Lord!"
Chen Mo nodded with satisfaction. From then on, the once powerful Meng family army was also conquered by Chen Mo.
Inside the Xianyang Palace
"Teacher, didn't you say that if Meng Yi made any unusual moves, you would let the Luowang assassins kill him? But now all the members of the Meng family army have defected to the rebels!" Hu Hai said anxiously.
Zhao Gao also frowned, "Your Majesty, it seems that Meng Yi must have planned to join the rebels long ago, otherwise he would not have done it so straightforwardly. Moreover, those rebels are also quite extraordinary. They are protected by many masters. The Luowang assassins can't even get close to them!"
There is a question that Zhao Gao has never been able to figure out, which is why Meng Yi was willing to join the rebel team. You have to know that your Meng family has been loyal for generations!
What benefits did the traitor promise you?
Hu Hai didn't know what Zhao Gao was thinking. He only cared about whether his throne could be secured. "Teacher, what do you think we should do in this situation? If this continues, they will attack Xianyang City!"
Those soldiers from all over the place are all good-for-nothings. They surrendered without a fight? I'm so pissed! "
Zhao Gao pondered and said, "Your Majesty, the rebels are powerful, and with the Meng family's army joining them, it is no longer possible for ordinary soldiers to defeat them. The only solution now is to send out the Wang family, which is as famous as the Meng family, to quell the rebellion!"
Hu Hai was already a little panicked at this time, and only reacted after being reminded by him: "Yes, you are right, I will send a message to Wang Ben and his son and ask them to lead the army to quell the rebellion!"
Half a month later, in the Xianyang Palace
There were a lot of bangs and clangs, and a lot of furniture and other things were smashed.
Hu Hai said hysterically: "Didn't you say that the Wang family could put down the rebellion? Why did the Wang family surrender without a fight? Tell me, did you do this on purpose? Are you an undercover sent by the enemy?"
Zhao Gao's face turned cold when he heard this: "How dare you yell at me like this, you bastard? Have you forgotten who helped you get to this position? Since you really don't know how to appreciate my kindness, it seems that it's time to change someone else to be the emperor!"
At the same time, on the other side
Wang Li pointed at Meng Tian and said, "Great! I didn't expect that a man like you with thick eyebrows and big eyes would also join the rebels?"
Meng Tian laughed: "I surrendered to the rebels? Then what are you doing?"
Hearing this, Wang Li was speechless.
Inside the tent
Ying Zheng looked at Wang Jian and was silent for a long time before saying, "I didn't expect you were still alive!"
Wang Jian was a little embarrassed at first, but he quickly adjusted himself: "I'm sorry to make you laugh, I just want to protect my family!"
In addition to them, there were also people from the Mohist School, many senior Confucianists, and a number of senior members from the Farming School in the tent. Seeing this, they all looked puzzled, and finally they all looked at Chen Mo. They knew that the reason why everyone could gather together was because of Chen Mo's existence.
Chen Mo looked at the civil and military officials in the tent and said with a smile: "Those who are righteous have many supporters, while those who are unrighteous have few supporters. It seems that I am destined to become the common ruler of the world!
From now on, I will trouble you all for your help!"
A few months later, at the gate of Xianyang City
Chen Mo led a large army to the city.
crunch~
The city gate suddenly opened, and many court officials headed by Zhao Gao walked out, but Hu Hai was nowhere to be seen.
Zhao Gao wanted to step forward but was stopped by Gao Jianli, Gai Nie, Wei Zhuang and others.
"Sir, my Qin State is willing to surrender to you, and Luo Wang is also willing to work for you. Please take us in!" Zhao Gao said respectfully.
The Great Wall Army, the Wang Family Army, and the Meng Family Army all defected to Chen Mo. Sheng Qi and Wu Kuang from Mount Li also brought their men to defect. Zhao Gao was amazed at the depth of Chen Mo's layout, but he also understood that if they continued to resist, they would definitely be unstoppable.
Rather than being conquered in the end, it is better to surrender proactively. He believes that the value of Luowang will definitely impress a king.
Chen Mo raised his eyebrows: "Surrender? Shouldn't Hu Hai be the one saying this?"
Zhao Gao raised the box in his hand and said: "Hu Hai is cruel and inhumane, everyone has the right to kill him!
We are offering their heads to you today. Please understand that we surrender sincerely!"
As he spoke, he opened the box in his hand, and the head that appeared was indeed Hu Hai's.
Chen Mo smiled playfully: "Sacrifice the rook to save the king? Throw it away after use? Zhao Gao, you are worthy of it!
But you don’t really think that you have done a great deed by offering the city, do you? "
Hearing this, Zhao Gao frowned and asked, "What do you mean, sir?"
Chen Mo did not answer, but looked at a masked man beside him. The masked man slowly took off his mask and looked at Zhao Gao: "Zhao Gao, do you still recognize me?"
Zhao Gao looked at him suspiciously, and immediately showed a look of shock: "It's you? Haven't you already ~"
"Already dead, right? Sorry to disappoint you. Not only am I not dead, I'm back to seek revenge on you!" Ying Zheng sneered.
Could it be that all this was Ying Zheng’s plan?
Zhao Gao immediately realized that something was wrong. If there was any possibility that Chen Mo would let him go, Ying Zheng would definitely not let him go!
Thinking of this, Zhao Gao wanted to escape without saying a word, but unfortunately he couldn't move his body because everything around him turned black and white. It was Chen Mo who used the [Heaven and Earth Lost Color].
【Northern Divine Art】
After using the [Northern Divine Art] to drain his internal energy, Chen Mo was able to lift the suppression of [The Color of Heaven and Earth Lost]. In an instant, everyone around him breathed a sigh of relief, including Master Xun, the powerful celestial being.
Master Xun thought: Sure enough, this guy is a monster. He can kill me instantly with just [Heaven and Earth Lost Color]. I really don't know who in this world can fight against him!
"I'll leave this guy to you!" Chen Mo said to Ying Zheng and Fusu, and then led the army into the city.
The civil and military officials were already shocked by Ying Zheng's appearance, and they did not react until the army approached them, and then they quickly hid to both sides.
As for the people in the city, if they originally had some thoughts about Chen Mo taking over Xianyang, then after Ying Zheng appeared, these thoughts disappeared: Didn’t you see that the former Emperor Qin Shi Huang had surrendered to the enemy?
Half a month later, Kuaiji County City
"I heard that Tianming is here? Where is he?" After Shao Yu heard the news, he hurried back and asked Fan Zeng as soon as he saw him.
"They are resting inside, but I'm afraid they are here not just to reminisce about the past!" Fan Zeng said with some concern.
Shao Yu frowned: "Can Tianming still harm me?"
"I won't harm you, but it's possible for me to act as a lobbyist!" Xiang Liang took over the conversation.
After hearing this, Shao Yu was silent for a long time before he said, "If they are really here to lobby, what should we do? Fight, or -"
Not long after Chen Mo raised his army, they also started an uprising. Plus, they were in their own old Chu State, so they recruited 100,000 soldiers in a short period of time. Now they are occupying Jiangdong, and are facing Chen Mo's army from afar!
However, ever since they learned that Chen Mo had incorporated most of the Qin army, Shao Yu and the others knew that their chances of winning were very slim, so they have been worrying about this matter recently.
As for the separation of north and south with Chen Mo? Even if they are willing, Chen Mo will definitely not be willing!
Xiang Liang sighed: "Well, let's see what conditions they will propose first!"
What happened next was exactly as they had expected. In addition to Tianming, Zhang Liang also came. Tianming was responsible for reminiscing about the past, while Zhang Liang was responsible for lobbying.
Zhang Liang’s lobbying was also very simple. He just took out a world map, and he was already half successful.
Zhang Liang was not surprised to see the three people looking shocked. He was also shocked when he first saw the world map.
He originally thought that the territory of Qin was already large enough, but he did not expect that it only occupied a small area on the world map. What does this mean? Does it mean that the world is vast and boundless? No, it means that there are still too many places waiting for the new empire to conquer!
"So what you mean?" Shao Yu asked in surprise.
"The world is so big, don't you want to go and see it? As long as you are willing to surrender, you will have the opportunity to expand your territory!
Do you want to be a general of a small country and leave your name only in the old land of Chu? Or do you want to be a general of a unified empire and leave your reputation forever?" Zhang Liang persuaded them.
Faced with this soul-searching question, the three of them were silent for a moment. Although this seemed like a case of getting something for nothing and making empty promises, it was undeniable that the three of them were tempted!
In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.
Shao Yu and others had surrendered several months ago. Chen Mo did not deprive them of their military power like other emperors did, but continued to let them command the troops. The reason for this was that he had absolute confidence in his own strength, not to mention that he had placed many of his own people in the army.
At this time, the top of Mount Tai
Looking at Chen Mo who was performing the Fengshan ceremony, Ying Zheng's expression was extremely complicated: Damn, a year ago, I was the one performing the Fengshan ceremony, but now I'm their little brother!
Beside him were a group of civil and military ministers, including the original military generals and nobles of the Qin State, as well as many acquaintances who had accompanied Chen Mo along the way.
They will all witness the birth of a new empire here. The former name of the country, Qin, is definitely no longer usable as it will cause endless troubles. So Chen Mo changed the name to Chen in front of everyone!
As the prayer to heaven was finished, a steady stream of luck and fortune gathered together. Chen Mo's expression changed slightly, as if he had discovered something unusual, but he did not check it out immediately.
That night, in Chen Mo's resting place, after sending everyone away, Chen Mo took out something.
This object is four inches square, with five dragons intertwined on the top and eight seal characters "Received the Mandate from Heaven, May You Live Long and Prosper" engraved on the front. It is none other than the Heshi Bi, also known as the Imperial Seal!
The reason why he took out this thing was naturally not for viewing, but because when the Fengshan ceremony was completed, this thing showed unusual movements. To be more specific, Chen Mo guessed that it was related to luck.
Chen Mo once thought that something like the imperial seal, which has been passed down through the ages, would not be simple, but he did not expect it to be so magical.
After several days of research, Chen Mo finally figured out the function of the imperial seal. It turned out to be to gather luck. As we all know, for people with great luck, picking up money and turning misfortune into good fortune are a piece of cake when they go out, while people with bad luck will even get a toothache when drinking cold water. You can imagine how much influence luck has on a person!
Chen Mo once speculated that the reason he was able to obtain this pair of eyes was because he had used up all the luck from countless previous lives. Otherwise, how could such a good thing happen to him?
In addition, Chen Mo also discovered that the imperial seal could actually be taken into his eyes. This was the only thing Chen Mo had seen so far that could be taken into his eyes.
With the imperial seal in hand, Chen Mo could clearly feel that his cultivation speed had accelerated. To describe it with the [I Am the Only One in the Eight Desolations and Six Directions], if Chen Mo's internal strength used to increase by one year every day, then now his internal strength would increase by ten years every day!
