The cold wind whimpered. The banner of Qin fell at Bamiyan, and four thousand soldiers of the Qin army died on the battlefield. Their deeds quickly spread throughout the Great Qin's Western Expedition, and Ma Jin's name was mentioned again and again. This Qin military captain, who was inconspicuous among the generals of the New Qin, at the last moment of his life, It bloomed with the most dazzling brilliance. Balkan Peninsula, Pella. Qin army generals Luo Jia and Cao Xin sat together in silence. Ma Jin was captured by Xiang Yu's Chu army under Zhang Han during the Battle of Julu, and was later redeemed by Li Yuan in exchange for prisoners. After that, , Ma Jin served in Luo Jia and Cao Xin's army successively. However, Ma Jin's body was injured internally while working in Pengcheng, and he could not bear the high-intensity training of the elite division. Ma Jin had to make a choice to transfer to the baggage army. He originally thought that he could remain stable in the army until he grew old, but he did not expect that he would encounter such a severe test. In front of Luo Jia and Cao Xin, there was an ordinary captain's armor robe, a standard bronze sword, and a jar of fine Fufeng wine from Ma Jin's hometown Fufeng County. This wine is strong and sweet. It is suitable for generals who lead their troops to kill. "Captain Ma, although we haven't been together for long, since you, brother, have taken the first step, I will give you a step forward as a brother. This armor robe was mended by the women in Guanzhong. The needlework is very dense and can be To keep out the cold and keep warm, this bronze sword is outdated, but it is made by the same military. Holding it, it feels like going back to the past! " "And this wine, the good wine of Fufeng, the wine of my hometown, our Guanzhong! What a man longs for most is to drink the strongest wine, ride the strongest horse, sleep with the most beautiful woman, and conquer the most difficult journey¡ª¡ª" Luo Jia and Cao Xin said every word. They picked up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp. Their eyes were filled with infinite longing for their fallen comrades. The friendship between men is sometimes like the rivers and the sea, not delicate, but extremely sincere. In the face of honor and life, Ma Jin made his choice. And at this moment, his figure and his deeds. It was an example for hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Qin Dynasty to follow. Guanzhong. Fufeng County. At the mouth of a branch of the Yishui River, a tributary of the Wei River, Ma Jin¡¯s hometown, a small village in the past, is now bustling with people, showing a prosperous scene. At the east entrance of the village, on the bare locust trees, a bit of snow is melting in the sun. Although winter is still going on, spring is also coming quietly. Ma Jin¡¯s woman is dressed in plain white. Just stood at the intersection so quietly. There are already traces of time on her face, and her body is gradually curving from the work and longing day and night. Her black hair was even more stained by snow. The reporting team from Chang'an had just left. Chang Shi Houxi looked sad, with sympathy on his tired face. This official who followed Li Yuan all the way from Yongqiu worked hard in an ordinary and simple way, although his ability was not as dazzling as others. But his efforts will eventually be rewarded. At this point, Hou Xi and Ma Jin are the same type of people. They are unknown, they do not attract attention, even among the vast group of officials, they are so ordinary, but no one can deny that it is their existence that laid the foundation for the great Qin Dynasty to become a powerful country in the world. ¡ª¡ª. The seventeenth year of the Qin Dynasty, winter. Cold winds blowing from the far north one after another, with an unyielding momentum, swept across the entire Central and North Asia. At the southern foot of the Altai Mountains, thick snow covered the vast grasslands and the wasteland. The sky was pure white, with only a few half-lengths of Populus euphratica left begging helplessly in the north wind. The severe winter in the northern part of the Asian continent. It is an extremely severe test for both humans and animals. The carnivores on the grassland also hid in their nests early at this time, hibernating with their eyes closed, or howling hungry in the snow, hoping One or two frozen animal corpses can be found deep in the snow to replenish the energy lost in the body. The Qin State¡¯s Northern General, King Han Xin of Yan, wore thick and soft white fox fur, and led more than 30,000 soldiers of the Northern Army directly under him to go south from the North Sea. "Your Highness King Yan, the soldiers have been waiting for this expedition to the south for a long time. If we act quickly, we can drive those shameless southern bastards out of Bamiyan before His Majesty. Haha, by then we will also let the soldiers from the west Look at the true strength of our North Army." Next to Han Xin, a general with a somewhat ferocious face and a rolled scar on his face exhaled and said confidently. Qiu Lijin, the former Xiongnu Zuoxian King, gradually integrated into Han Xin's Northern Army after surrendering to the Qin State. His tribe has now been renamed Wuhuan, which means derived from the grazing place Wuwan Mountain. At the same time, Qiu Lijin also sent I hope this will show that he and his tribe will fight with the Xiongnu again from now on.?Relationship. Of course, just changing a name is not enough. Qiu Lijin was a smart man. After weighing the situation, he chose to serve under Han Xin. Han Xin is the largest general in the north of Qin State, with a status comparable to that of a prince. If he takes refuge with him, the Wuhuan tribe will get the most practical support. Han Xin was silent, but the hand shrunk in the fox fur trembled slightly, and there was no change in the expression on his face. Qiu Lijin's words were somewhat of an element of sowing discord. Since the Qin army's western expedition, the southern, central and northern fronts have been advancing hand in hand. All the way to the south, the Western Region Allied Forces commanded by Li Zhongxiang have broken bamboos all the way. Now they have occupied Egypt and become A prince who can be equal to Han Xin. As for the Central Route Army, under the personal command of Li Yuan, Luo Jia's cavalry and Cao Xin's heavy infantry have now expanded to nearly 100,000 troops. Moreover, the Mediterranean Fleet of the Qin Navy derived from the Central Route Army is also competing with The Roman fleet won a fierce battle. In contrast, although the regiment independently commanded by Han Xin in the north had a record of expelling the Slavs and Huns, it was still much bleak compared with the first two routes. What is the reason for this? Qiu Lijin didn't say it clearly, and his meaning was very obscure, but if you think about it for a moment, you can guess that this was because Han Xin was not taken seriously and was ostracized by Li Yuan's old troops, especially the generals who came from the personal barracks. Count the generals who founded the Qin Dynasty. It can be said that all the old subordinates who followed Li Yuan to conquer the world, except for a few people like Wang Shang who gave up on themselves, were all reused. Under such circumstances, only a few like Han Xin, Ji Bu, and Huan Chu were reused. Several generals who joined midway and had different political views did not create a climate of confrontation at all. Han Xin was born in Xiang Chu, but he fell out with Long Qie, Xiang Zhuang and others early on; Ji Bu and Huan Chu were real generals of the Chu army, but these two men did not have great political ambitions, and they had already achieved their current status. He was very contented, so even if Han Xin wanted to unite, he could not find like-minded people. After a long while, Han Xin began to say with care and dignity: "Within ten days, I want to see the flag of Great Qin flying in the Bamiyan Valley. Can you do it?" Qiu Lijin was because Han Xin was unmoved. Disappointed, when he heard the order, he said with great joy: "Your Highness, ten days is too long. Our Wuhuan army will take Bamiyan in eight days, no, within seven days." Seven days. From the Altai Mountains to the Bamiyan Valley, the journey would take five days, unless Qiulijin's horse never left the saddle and traveled day and night. In that case, how could he ensure the combat effectiveness of his soldiers. However, if Qiulijin could really kill suddenly, the Indians would be caught off guard and it would be difficult to stop the Wuhuan people who were like wolves and tigers. Only communication can eliminate misunderstandings. The trust between people relies on mutual understanding. Han Xin led the troops to march south. This time, he received an urgent order from Li Yuan from Xinan City. After hiding Han Xin, the sharpest sword, for a long time, Li Yuan finally decided to use Han Xin when dealing with the Indians. If a knife is not used for a long time, it will indeed cause embarrassment and even resentment. This time, Li Yuan hoped to have a good night talk with Han Xin when they met in the Indus River Valley to resolve some of the gaps in each other's hearts. Unity. More important than anything else. The pace of Da Qin's conquest of the world has just begun. On the future journey, there are still two powerful enemies, Rome and India, as well as black Africa and the New World to be conquered.
