Chapter 174 The door is wide open

Qin Dan was stunned for a moment. Has Great Qin fallen to this level in the eyes of the old Qin people?

That was the result of the efforts of the people of Old Qin generation after generation. After hundreds of years, they gradually grew from weak to strong, and then to the world that they unified the six countries...

All right.

In fact, Qin Dan knew very well why Da Qin had reached this point.

The reason is that the First Emperor is no longer here.

No matter how ruthless the killing was before, the consequences will be severe now.

Although the prince Hu Hai won the throne, his ability was insufficient, or in other words, he had no ability at all.

Instead of making targeted policy adjustments to the problems occurring in various places, it has deepened domestic conflicts step by step.

In the end, the old lands of the Six Kingdoms rebelled, and even the old Qin people in Guanzhong, who had paid for this for generations, began to be very dissatisfied with Qin Ting.

To sum up, Qin Shihuang was a tyrant, but he was not stupid.

And Prince Hu Hai is both a tyrant and a coward. If he is placed at such a critical juncture, Qin will surely perish if it does not.

If Qin Shihuang could live another fifty years, the ending would naturally be a different scene.

"Are the people in Guanzhong really like this?" Qin Dan asked, looking at his men.

This is my confidant, and I will not lie to myself about this kind of thing.

Qin Dan has been stationed at Hangu Pass for more than half a year and has not left the pass. Naturally, he does not know much about the current situation in Guanzhong.

Although he already knew the answer, he was still unwilling to believe it and face this fact.

"Captain Lieutenant, after the Qin Dynasty unified the world, the people of Old Qin did not enjoy the treatment they should enjoy as victors, and the tyranny still exists in Guanzhong. Previously, because of the powerful enemy, everyone could accept some hardships, but now the battle is over,

Life has become more miserable than before. When the First Emperor was still alive, the people were afraid of him, so they did not dare to discuss these words in private. But after the second emperor ascended the throne and made frequent mistakes, the people were already dissatisfied." Qin Dan's men

Said in a clear voice.

"By the way, one more thing. The veteran army led by General Wang is not 400,000. There are only more than 100,000 veteran soldiers..."

"What???" Qin Dan's eyes widened. Why didn't he know about such things? Instead, the people around him knew about it first?

This is not a matter of one or two people, but hundreds of thousands of people.

The confidant seemed to understand Qin Dan's confused eyes and explained directly: "A playmate from the same village as my subordinate who is a border guard came back a few days ago. He said that most of the 300,000 Great Wall troops were suitable for border guards, and there was chaos everywhere.

, all those suitable for guarding the border left, and he was caught in the crowd and was taken out by the crowd. He had no choice but to go home quietly. Therefore, of General Wang's 400,000 people, there should be 200,000 to 300,000 serving as laborers on the Great Wall."

"Huh?" Zhang Han frowned tightly.

Is there still such a thing?

Why didn't the scouts find out this important information?

Why didn't I hear this news when I was in the Qin Army?

But soon, Zhang Han had an explanation for the latter. He didn't have a good relationship with Wang Li, and there was no need to tell him about this kind of thing, let alone making it known to everyone.

Therefore, there is a high probability that the matter was suppressed after reaching the second generation.

Those who are suitable for guarding the border are not only people from the old Qin Dynasty, but also old friends from the Six Kingdoms.

Among them, there are 100,000 old Qin veterans, who are the elite among the elite of the Great Wall Legion and are also the backbone.

There are more than 30,000 people in Lao Qin. This is a way to further strengthen the control of the army under the backbone.

For a legion of 300,000 people, half of it was occupied by the Old Qin people, and only half of it was occupied by the six kingdoms combined, so it was naturally stable.

But since various countries have revolted one after another, those who were suitable for guarding the borders of the six countries have left, and their hometowns have rebelled. I still follow you here to eat dirt?

This time, not only a few people left, but hundreds of thousands of people who were suitable for guarding the border, and many more corvees. These hundreds of thousands of people made up a huge torrent, so that the Qin army did not dare to make any move for a while.

If a fight really breaks out, they may not take much advantage, because the equipment and training of the hundreds of thousands of border guards are not much different from those of the old Qin people.

Powerless!

Qin Dan felt a deep sense of powerlessness...

What can he do about this?

He wants to fight too!

He also wanted to fight to the last moment for Da Qin.

In each generation of Qin Shan's ancestors, at least three people sacrificed their lives for the Qin Dynasty. His family's contribution to the Great Qin was no less than anyone else's, and his loyalty to the Great Qin was no less than anyone else's.

But even so, Qin Dan decided to accept Zhang Han's invitation and come to meet him.

How can one person's fighting spirit influence the entire army?

He has already felt the change in the mentality of his soldiers, and the situation at Hangu Pass is no longer under his control.

And this understanding appeared in the reaction of the people in Guanzhong after Zhou Wen broke through the barrier and entered Guanzhong.

"General Zhang, can you guarantee that the soldiers are no different from him?" Qin Dan took a deep breath.

Forcing a war may not be the best outcome for him.

Qin Dan also came from the "elite training camp" of the Qin Army, so he naturally knew when to fight and when not to fight.

Da Qin has no power to fight anymore...

"Of course it can be guaranteed that the King of Han is far more attentive and serious in this regard than the world imagines." Zhang Han affirmed directly.

Although Wang Buxu is somewhat conservative in his use, or distrustful.

But there is no difference in treatment in terms of treatment and other aspects.

The entire Han army has a unified standard. Just because you were a Qin army before, it will not treat you badly now.

It is precisely because of this reason that many surrendered soldiers who originally planned to go home changed their minds.

"I'm tired too. It's time to disarm and return to the fields..." Qin Dan looked into the distance with a feeling of reluctance in his heart.

But there is nothing I can do no matter how reluctant I am.

He could not be like Zhang Han and others, who surrendered and served the Han army and then attacked their homeland.

The ancestors had shed enough blood, but their descendants did not enjoy the treatment in the Qin Dynasty, but instead enjoyed it in the enemy country. In Qin Dan's view, this was a great irony.

For Qin, and for those who have sacrificed their blood and lives for Qin, this is a great irony.

He couldn't die with dignity like Li You, but his dignity was rubbed on the ground after death.

No matter how loyal a person is, there will be a moment when his heart dies!

No matter how loyal a person is, it is impossible for everyone to be willing to die with you.

"Three days later, I will lead my troops out of the pass and hand over Hangu Pass to your army!" Qin Dan said.

Zhang Han was naturally happy to see this result. He took Hangu Pass with just one mouth. This was also his own credit.

However, he was not too proud. In fact, there was nothing to be proud of. If someone else who knew Qin Dan were to persuade him to surrender, even if the process was more complicated, the result would not be much different.

At this time, Zhang Han couldn't help but think of Wang Buxu's previous confession. Although he was speechless, he still had to say that Zhente's information was as good as a god...
