Chapter 288 The Bet Between Wu Anjun and Wu Hou
[In the ninth month, Zhao soldiers were not allowed to eat for forty-six days, and they all had internal Yin to kill and eat. When they came to attack Qin's base and were about to leave, their general Zhao Kuo sent out his sharp soldiers to fight among themselves. The Qin army shot Zhao Kuo dead. Kuo's army was defeated and 400,000 soldiers surrendered to Lord Wu'an. Wu'an Jun Ji said: "The former Qin Dynasty had defeated Shangdang, and the people of Shangdang were not happy to serve Qin and returned to Zhao. The soldiers of Zhao were repeated. If we don't kill them all, they may cause chaos." Instead, they used deception to kill them all, leaving their little ones behind. Two hundred and forty people returned to Zhao. They beheaded and captured 450,000 people. The people of Zhao were shocked. 】
That was the day when the all-powerful general saw the fallen thing for the first time.
No one knows that Zhao Kuo no longer resembles a human being and was shot dead by him with the bow given by His Majesty. No one knows that what he said about "Zhao Kuo's repeated attacks" is just an excuse, but "fear of chaos" is true. Exactly, but it is not a turmoil for the Qin State, but a disaster for the entire Central Plains and the entire world.
Trap and kill four hundred thousand people... Huh, to deal with a group of monsters, do we have to keep them in captivity like pigs and sheep until they tear off their sheepskins and turn into wolves to reignite cholera?
Gongsun Qi would not do such stupid things, even if he was accused by thousands of people, he would not frown.
But now that I think about it, the only regret I have is that the seal linked to the 400,000 blood sacrifices can't even kill the embryo of the beast. The wish to seal it for ten thousand years has come to nothing, and only a hundred years have passed before this beast escaped.
I have betrayed the king's trust... The fragments obtained by cutting down mountains and destroying temples are indeed unreliable, not to mention that I am not the material to practice magic.
The white-haired general walked in the broken city, his blood-stained pupils were dull and distant, reflecting the sparkling light of the years.
... He only sighed and lamented about the failure of his own affairs, and did not consider at all that he led a group of soldiers to chase the human race and scared many people out of his wits.
It wasn't until the young man with long hair disheveled and a feather fan waving gently appeared in front of him that he came back from his thoughts.
"Marquis Wu."
"Going out for a walk?" Weber also looked like he was not surprised, and extended his hand to invite the latter, who was willing to go with him to the outside of the city.
The night air is clear, and the silver moon flows quietly in the moat, reflecting each other with the hot bonfire lit on the horizon.
The two figures walked side by side. When the vicissitudes of life in the general's eyes faded, Weber said:
"Our troops have completely assembled. This place is sandwiched between the Imperial Army and the Union Army, which is not good for us. I plan to lead the troops to evacuate tomorrow. What do you think?"
"Several major armies of the United Empire have been annihilated and their combat strength has been greatly reduced. They must have begun to shrink their front now, right?" Shuo Yue did not answer Weber's words, but just murmured, "Although the Roman Empire has many followers, But no one is good at leading troops in war."
"The Queen of Britain..." Weber opened his mouth to speak, but when he caught a glimpse of Shuo Yue's extremely calm expression, he suddenly stopped and laughed softly.
"That's right. Looking at the two great Romes, there is no single enemy of you, the general."
Standing in front of him was a truly famous general who had stood out in the chaotic wars among the princes and was powerful in all directions. He was a person who reached the pinnacle in the field of command.
How could a so-called queen who only took advantage of the situation and made tactical mistakes in the end, leading the rebel army to the end, catch the eyes of Lord Wu An?
"Don't underestimate yourself," Shuo Yue teased with a smile, "Since you have inherited that spiritual foundation, you are also a sage of the martial temple who can lead the war to destroy the country, the 'Wuhou'.
"War to destroy the country...you mean?!" Weber suddenly heard something and couldn't help but stop and widen his eyes.
Under his burning gaze, Shuo Yue still had a slight smile on her face, as if she had made this shocking decision today or even earlier.
"My soldiers are all in your hands, Weber, let's go to the west." He said, "It's just a United Empire with a severely damaged vitality and almost all emperors have fallen. You shouldn't be able to eat it, right?"
With his white hair swaying, the man finally stopped and turned his head. There was an extremely confident look deep in his blood-red eyes.
"As for the orthodox Roman Empire, I will destroy it myself."
Facing the man's undisguised sense of oppression, Weber held his breath as if suffocated, feeling the spirit's suddenly raised fighting heart and the beating of his heart that became more intense.
Finally, he also grinned—a fierce smile that mixed the confidence of a general, the fanaticism of a conqueror, and the pride of a wise man.
"Are you challenging me, Lord Wu'an of Great Qin?"
"You can understand this, Zhuge Wuhou of Shu Han."
In the quiet night, two men in the martial arts temple looked at each other and smiled, using the life and death of the two countries as a bargaining chip, and made a contract to decide the outcome.
"However, since you chose the Roman Empire, you must be ready to confront that swordsman?"
Weber originally wanted to make fun of Shuo Yue for being embarrassed by Saber's Noble Phantasm, but he didn't expect that when the latter heard this, he suddenly showed a resentful expression, looking like a naughty kid who was caught by his parents playing games in an Internet cafe. .
"What...what's going on with you?"
"For example, if your Lenis is possessed by Sima Yi's spiritual base and then writes you a letter, the first sentence at the beginning of the letter is Onii-chan..."
"Stop, stop talking, I'm going to vomit blood if you keep talking." Weber suddenly shuddered and begged for mercy with a wry smile.
"Huh." After the teasing was successful, Shuo Yue smiled proudly, but soon her expression became melancholy again.
What should I do if my boss goes dark and catches me acting like a scumbag? Curry sticks may be waiting for me at any time?
Waiting online, it's quite urgent...
While talking and laughing, the two turned their backs to each other, one to the west and the other to the east, each taking a step forward and never looking back.
Only the lingering sound recorded the last conversation between them.
"Although we are divided into the east and the west, the general trend of the world is like this, we will eventually gather together, and when that time comes, you must be prepared."
"It's not right to worry about it. Don't think about it so complicatedly. My friend, it's not to the extent of the destruction of the world. At best, it's just to arrest the runaway children."
"... This is really in line with Wu Anjun and your personality, Shuoyue."
The moonlight fell, reflecting the road ahead of the two.
The stars in the sky twinkled, clear and bright.

Roman Empire, camp.
"How is His Majesty Nero?"
"It's just a fright. It will be fine after a full rest. However, this matter has caused a lot of trouble. Alas..." General Boudica sighed and sat next to Fujimaru.
Who would have thought that Shuoyue would actually betray as Nero said?
Originally, the United Empire was seriously injured. As long as they made a concerted effort and with the guidance of the Mediterranean Goddess, they could conquer the United Empire and repair the singularity.
But they didn't expect that the United Empire Army was destroyed, and Shuoyue stood in front of them again.
"..." Fujimaru Ritsuka remained silent, just clenched his fists, and his knuckles turned slightly white.
He couldn't figure out why Shuoyue chose to betray.
"Be loyal to the emperor and worry about the emperor. Perhaps it is the loyalty of the East that makes the general of the Qin Dynasty unwilling to be inferior to others." The doctor sighed at the other end of the bracelet, "Even if Nero said that Shuoyue was a pseudo-servant, in the final analysis, the spiritual base will also affect the human being who possesses it."
"But didn't he also promise His Majesty Nero to guard Pisa and even expedition to the United Empire!" Fujimaru pursed his lips and said unwillingly.
"Did you overlook one thing, Fujimaru." A familiar voice responded.
Boudica and Fujimaru looked up in astonishment, only to see a white-haired man walking towards them in full view of everyone.
In his blood-red eyes, there was no panic that one would have if they were trapped in the enemy camp.
"Have you forgotten that there is only one stroke left on Nero's hand?"
