Chapter 535 The troubled times are coming(1/2)
"sit down."
He was really surprised that Cui Wenzi came to see him, since he had no friendship with Cui Wenzi.
Last time we met Cui Wenzi in a hurry at Zuixian Tower in Xianyang, he was still drunk.
Cui Wenzi sat down, looked around, and then looked at Qian Wen, "General Qian, I really have something to ask for when I come here this time."
"It seems we are not familiar with each other, why should I help you?" Qian Wen asked.
He really didn't want to have too much contact with this mythical Riddler. His current plan was a foregone conclusion and he didn't want to cause any complications.
"It doesn't matter whether we are familiar or not. I think General Qian has been a close friend of me for a long time." Cui Wenzi took off the wine gourd from his waist and put it aside, not paying attention to Qian Wen's distant tone.
"Tell me, what can I help you with?" Qian Wen was too lazy to play hide-and-seek and riddles with Cui Wenzi.
If the other party's request is not difficult to handle, he will give him a favor.
Sometimes it's not appropriate to care about everything.
"I knew General Qian was right." Cui Wenzi smiled, and then he said what he wanted, "The star fell in Dongjun some time ago, and I want some powder from the star.
The second one is that I need some blood from General Mengtian’s beloved horse Heifeng.”
Cui Wenzi took out a small bottle as big as his thumb and placed it on the table next to him.
Qian Wen was startled when he heard this.
Elixir of life.
These are all the refining materials needed to refine the elixir of life.
I just didn’t expect Cui Wenzi to ask for him.
"You have great powers, but you still need my help with these little things?" Qian Wen asked Cui Wenzi in a riddle.
Cui Wenzi stroked his beard, seemed to sigh, and looked at Qian Wen seriously, "You think of me as too mysterious.
I am just an ordinary doctor with an ordinary body. How can I get the blood of the beloved horse of General Meng from the Mongolian mansion with countless soldiers?
Also, when the star of heaven fell in Dongjun, someone took the opportunity to cause cholera to spread across the Qin Dynasty and attack the Emperor of Qin. How could an old man like me get in because the place was already heavily guarded?
For my lifelong dream, I can only ask General Qian for help."
With that said, Cui Wenzi stood up and bowed to Qian Wen, clasping his fists.
Looking at Cui Wenzi, who described himself as an ordinary person, Qian Wen glanced at him. Some of his lies were true and some were false.
"What benefits do I have?" Qian Wen said bluntly.
Cui Wenzi was already prepared and looked outside, "Can you bring in the suitcase I left outside?"
"Here comes someone."
Soon Cui Wenzi's suitcase was brought in by the guard at the door.
Cui Wenzi took out several parchment scrolls from his suitcase, placed them on the table, and introduced them one by one, "This is a medical scripture I summarized by myself. It focuses on the Five Elements and Bagua, which corresponds to the internal organs in the human body. However, this is only a small
Part of it, I have left the rest in Xianyang, and General Qian can send someone to get it.
These two are Drunken Fist and Drunken Sword created by me, the old man, and their rudimentary skills made the general laugh."
"That's all? Do I need it?" Qian Wen glanced at the things on the table and looked at Cui Wenzi.
Cui Wenzi was speechless, "This is all my stuff, old man."
"I want the elixir you refined." Qian Wen looked at Cui Wenzi and said.
Cui Wenzi was silent, where was the silence.
Qian Wen was not in a hurry and waited quietly. The elixir of life was of no use to him, but he had to accept the opportunity. This was the fundamental thing.
After a long time, Cui Wenzi came back to his senses and said, "I don't know if I can master it."
"It doesn't matter. What you refine is mine, and the ashes that fail to refine it into the elixir are also mine."
"I need to get something within a month."
"Where are you practicing the elixir? I will send someone to protect you."
"No one can disturb me while I'm refining my elixir."
"Don't worry, it's all about you, they only take the elixir."
Soon, Cui Wenzi left without stopping, and Qian Wen sent a team of personal guards to protect him.
time flies.
In the thirty-sixth year of the First Emperor's reign, at the end of autumn.
The corvee was increased, the punishment was harsh, and the people of the world dared to be angry but dared not speak out.
Juxian Hall in Xianyang was wiped out because the remnants of the Six Kingdoms attempted to rebel. Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang fled again. With the help of Qian Wenliu in Xianyang, they fled to the old Chu land.
Prince Fusu was implicated because of this, and Emperor Qin was furious and sent him to Liaodong County to reflect, build the Great Wall, and drive out foreigners.
Great Qin has also suffered from natural disasters this year.
Qian Wen had already established a foothold in the Meng army, and Meng Tian was responsible for building the Great Wall. He was also given the task of building the Great Wall. Because of many unforeseen events and the large-scale plundering of the Huns on the border, Meng Tian in Xianyang gave Qian Wen Xiang the opportunity.
Emperor Qin asked for merit, and he was now the right general, ranking high minister.
But his name in Xianyang and in the army became Meng Yi.
Regarding this, Qian Wen accepted that it was necessary to take over the Meng family army. Qian Wen had anticipated it before coming to the border.
Now Qian Wen is already the most powerful general among the tens of thousands of Meng family troops stationed in Jiuyuan County, except for General Meng Tian. Moreover, he is a Meng family member. The Meng family army is the direct line of the Meng family. He is now the only one in the army.
Below, above ten thousand people.
His border troops did not increase in number but still numbered 5,000, so they were still led by Han Xin.
After all, you still have to pay attention to the impact, otherwise Meng Tian will complain.
However, one after another Qian Wen sent private troops from Peixian County to the frontier, and Li Dai Taojiang trained his subordinates.
During this period, Qian Wen was conscientiously building the Great Wall, training the Meng army, protecting the Qin border, and learning to handle military affairs. He rarely went out to lead troops.
Jiuyuan City became his second base, and secret letters were sent rapidly from all directions.
Every graduate has made great progress in their graduation plans.
In terms of intelligence, meat, the domestication of castrated wild boars, the advancement of science and technology in scientific research workshops, grain and grass reserves, battlefield medicine, personnel training, political commissars' ideological and moral aspects, private army training, espionage on the layout of counties, and talent collection.
,etc.
The scale was large, with some good and some bad, but then Qian Wen, now named Meng Yi of the Meng family, the forces under his command followed the orders and lurked, and were not allowed to cause trouble. They stayed away from Xianyang, and no one deliberately caused trouble for them.
Xianyang is currently accompanying the emperor like a tiger, and the Emperor of Qin is constantly using elixirs to rejuvenate his spirit. He is in a irritable mood, and no one has the time to deal with these superficial businessmen.
It's weird if it's weird.
During this period, Shanquan Valley sent a secret letter, and Xiao He expressed his desire to enter the core of their private army and formally join Qian Wen.
Qian Wen replied, waiting!
He still didn't quite believe in smart people like Xiao He. Smart people would always have a backup plan, that is, they would protect themselves wisely.
He will not really use Xiao He until the Qin Dynasty collapses.
However, Qian Wen gave Shanquan Valley a new order. He kidnapped Cao Shen from Pei County and entered Shanquan Valley. He was a guest in Shanquan Valley like Xiao He, and he was not allowed to adopt any of their opinions.
Qian Wen is far away from Peixian County, so there are many reasons for rejecting Xiao He.
Although with the help of Xiao He, his power may be more complete, but the First Emperor will be thirty-seven years ago, and a great chaos is coming. He will not allow any mistakes. Unplanned accidents will appear, so slow down.
Winter, the thirty-seventh year of the First Emperor.
Following the advice of a fortune teller, the First Emperor made his fifth tour to evacuate from disasters and personally search for the elixir of immortality.
After a tiring journey, he was surrounded and killed by the survivors of the Six Kingdoms. He was killed and scattered by the troops led by Meng Tian who was accompanying him. However, Meng Tian was also assassinated by the poisonous arrows of the survivors of the Six Kingdoms who had come prepared and was seriously injured.
When Emperor Qin arrived at the sand dunes, his already poor health worsened, and he died. The news of his death was blocked that night.
Then Li Si took the imperial edict of Emperor Qin, and the son Hu Hai succeeded to the throne. At the same time, he accused Fusu of not making any meritorious service outside, but instead resented his father and punished the son Fusu.
Meng Tian, who was accompanying the army, had doubts and asked for a re-examination. Meng Tian, who was seriously injured, died suddenly that night.
Prince Fusu committed suicide.
Prince Hu Hai ascended the throne in Xianyang.
The situation in Xianyang changed drastically, and Li Siquan was in power.
As Meng Tian's younger brother Meng Yi, Qian Wen became a thorn in Li Si's side and a thorn in his flesh.
But Qian Wen took over tens of thousands of elite Meng troops in Jiuyuan County. He had great military exploits, was a Mongolian, and had the support of 300,000 Meng troops from the border areas. Li Si came up with a plan and sent Qian Wen to Xianyang!
At the same time, because Emperor Qin's death was known to the whole world, the remnants of the six kingdoms who had been suppressed began to have thoughts.
In the old Chu land, Xiang Yu, Xiang Liang, and Fan Zeng secretly summoned the old Chu troops.
The other surviving members of the Six Nations are also busy.
In Jiuyuan City.
