Chapter 119 Didn’t the First Emperor pass away? Catch him!

"Ha! Ha! Ha! How does it feel to be chased like a hound? Rebels, you deserve it!"

Ying Zheng laughed mockingly until he saw Zhang Liang leading the remnants of the enemy, rushing towards the hill where he was like a tiger pouncing on its prey.

“嘿
etc.
I was admiring this spectacular sight, why did you suddenly rush over here?

If they go around and fall into the encirclement of our Qin infantry, that would be their doom!
Why do you have to rush here?
Ying Zheng's smile froze in an instant, and his astonishment turned into shock.

"Oh no! Run! They are really coming!"

Without saying a word, the three of them ran as fast as they could, heading straight for where the horse was hidden behind them.

Nonsense, if I don’t run, are I waiting to die?
Although Qin Shi Huang is a grandmaster, Dahei is a half-step celestial being, and Xiaohei is also a grandmaster-level powerhouse, all three of them are top masters.

However, there are more than a thousand cavalrymen on the opposite side. Regardless of victory or defeat, as an emperor, he cannot take risks for the sake of his country and the people!

He knew this very well, so escaping first was the best strategy.

A wise monarch will not easily put himself in a desperate situation, as that would cause trouble to his subordinates.

However, sometimes people do not choose their own destiny, even if he is Qin Shi Huang.

"quick!"

"dash forward!"

"If we charge into this hillside, the Qin army's horses will not be able to climb up, and we will be safe!"

“Hurry~!”

"drive!"

“Faster! Faster! Come on!”

"Good horse, hold on a little longer, and I'll let you have a good rest when we get to the top!"

The fleeing rebels saw this hill as the dawn of their survival. They whipped their horses frantically and rushed up the hillside regardless of the horses' physical limits.

Indeed, only the excellent Hu horses could carry heavy loads on such a steep slope. If they were horses from the Central Plains, they would probably have given up long ago.

Fortunately, these war horses are smart and full of spirituality. Having experienced the fighting on the battlefield, they understand that their masters are doing this for survival.

So, regardless of their fatigue, they charged upward madly.

This is a small hill about 150 meters high and 450 meters long, not particularly steep.

But the warhorse had already run nearly twenty miles, and was exhausted from climbing this slope.

On the hillside, among the sparse trees, more than a thousand men and horses gathered. As soon as they arrived, they all took a slow rest.

Those sturdy war horses were panting and soaked in sweat. They were really tired.

However, the horses understood human nature. Seeing that their masters were safe and sound, they felt relieved and neighed.

Everyone escaped from the desperate situation and has just recovered from the shock.

Zhang Liang was planning to let everyone take a short rest before continuing to escape.

Under Zhang Liang's command, a scout hurriedly reported.

"General, look over there, it seems that three people are fleeing very quickly."

Zhang Liang remained calm and looked in the direction the scout's gesture indicated. He saw three men in black performing light skills and rushing in the distance like meteors.

The man in the lead was of burly build. Although he was hundreds of meters away, Zhang Liang felt that his back seemed familiar, as if he was a very important person!

"Pick a few horses with excellent endurance and chase them immediately! We will follow closely." At this moment, no matter what the identities of those three people are, they cannot be let go easily.

Whether it is an enemy scout or anyone else, once discovered, they must be eliminated.

Otherwise, these more than a thousand people might be targeted at any time while fleeing. Once their whereabouts are exposed, they will likely be surrounded, and then no one will have anywhere to escape.

Therefore, if we encounter enemy scouts at this moment, we must try to eliminate them.

After giving the order, Zhang Liang fell into deep thought. Why did he feel that man's back was both familiar and unfamiliar?
The feeling of strangeness comes from having only met someone once, while the feeling of familiarity comes from the importance of that person.

Who is it?
Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through Zhang Liang’s mind: Bolangsha!
Emperor Qin Shihuang!
That’s right, it’s that figure!
It was exactly the same as what he saw that day when he planned to assassinate Qin Shi Huang!
No way? How is this possible?!
Didn’t Qin Shi Huang pass away?
How come it appears here?

Bait!

This was Zhang Liang’s first thought. After all, he had had enough of being deceived today!

He couldn't help but wonder whether the enemy was using a fake Qin Shi Huang to deceive him.

However, Zhang Liang immediately denied this idea, saying it was impossible.

Regardless of whether this person is really Qin Shihuang, he cannot be a bait.

The Qin Dynasty has already won. It doesn't matter whether they pursue us or not. They will never use the emperor as bait. The value of the two is very different. Even if it is a fake emperor, they will not do so.

After all, these remnants of defeated soldiers were not worthy of tarnishing the reputation of Qin Shihuang.

So, either it was a coincidence that the enemy spy happened to look like Qin Shihuang, or a major change occurred and Zhang Liang knew nothing about it.

For example, Qin Shihuang was not dead, but went out for a trip on his own and was accidentally spotted by these soldiers who were fleeing in panic!

Bang bang bang!
Zhang Liang's heart suddenly started beating wildly. The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became. This possibility was even greater!
If this is true, wouldn't they have caught a big fish?
A fish bigger than all the food we have today!
A giant crocodile that is powerful enough to overthrow the Qin Dynasty!
Suddenly, Zhang Liang became spirited.

"Everyone!"

"Get on the horse! Chase those three guys!"

The brothers were all confused. No way! These horses had just finished a charge and were still exhaling white mist. If they ran again now, they would collapse.

Some of the brothers had just comforted the horses, telling them to rest and not to run anymore, but now they are asked to chase them again. How are they going to explain this to the horses?

Everyone looked at Zhang Liang in confusion.

Zhang Liang said again in a stern voice: "The man just now is of vital importance in the Qin Dynasty!"

"If we can capture him alive, it would be equivalent to burning all of Daqin's food and wiping out their entire army. It would be extremely beneficial to us!"

"Even if we can't capture him alive, as long as we kill him, it will be a heavy blow to the Qin Dynasty!"

"Just follow me, don't feel sorry for the horses!"

"Whoever captures those three alive will be promoted directly to captain of ten thousand men or lieutenant general!"

"Whoever kills the enemy and takes his head will be rewarded as a thousand-man commander!"

boom!!!
As soon as Zhang Liang finished speaking, his soldiers became excited!
Is there any need to pursue this?
Today has been frustrating enough, why not do something to save face!
What’s more, there are rewards for commanders of a thousand or even ten thousand men!
The captain of a thousand men and the captain of ten thousand men are directly promoted from soldiers to generals!
What soldier doesn't want to be a general?

This is the dream opportunity!
Go ahead, charge!
Surround, chase, intercept!
Anyway, it was the horses that were tired, and they still had plenty of energy.

So, in the eyes of the war horses filled with despair, they all jumped on their horses and rode them to chase in the direction of Qin Shihuang and his two companions.

It’s a pity for these good horses. Here in the rebel army, horses really have no choice.

It is said that Qin Shihuang and his two companions were overjoyed and turned to sorrow. When they saw the enemy's deserters rushing towards them, they immediately realized that something was wrong.
