7th July, Great Qin Dynasty, Xianyang City.
In the palace, the middle-aged Qin Shihuang stood with his back facing Qin Shihuang as he stared at the map of China in the wilderness. Great Qin's territory was only a small piece. He asked: "Li Si, Great Xia is here. Zhang Yi is leading the team?"
Just his back view alone was enough to give one immense pressure. This was the prestige of Qin Shihuang.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"What did they say?" Qin Shihuang did not turn around.
Li Si secretly wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead and said: "They, they hope that Your Majesty can go into seclusion."
Qin Shihuang was silent.
After a long while, Qin Shihuang turned around and looked at Wang Jian with a cold glint in his eyes. "If we start a war with Great Xia, what are our chances of winning?"
Wang Jian thought for a moment and replied: "We can fight."
The meaning behind this sentence was worth pondering.
In history, Wang Jian and his son massacred the six states due to many factors. At that time, Qin was strong and the Qin army was strong while the six states had been decaying for a long time and were only left with an empty shell.
That was why Qin was able to unify the six states in a short ten years.
Qin's road to unifying the six states started with Shang Yang's reform and was the result of the efforts of several generations of emperors. Qin Shihuang only completed the final blow and did not dare to be greedy.
In the wilderness, Qin was trapped in a corner and the Qin army had no battle experience. Their opponent, Great Xia, had a vast territory and a strong army. Even when the Qin Kingdom was at its peak in history, it was still far behind.
The two were completely different in strength.
That was why Wang Jian said 'we can fight', implying that they could not win.
Qin Shihuang looked deeply at Wang Jian and Li Si and waved his hand tiredly. "Both of you can leave!"
"Yes!"
That night, Qin Shihuang left behind an edict to pass the throne to his eldest son, Fu Su, before committing suicide.
This was how an emperor ended his journey in the wilderness. At the last moment of his life, Qin Shihuang looked at the sky and said: "Mother Goddess, I should not have come!"
Gaia was silent.
At the moment Qin Shihuang committed suicide, a huge meteor streaked across the night sky.
… …
Capital, Imperial City.
Ouyang Shuo, who was still reading the memorials, seemed to have sensed something. he got up and walked to the window and saw the dazzling meteor flashing past like a comet.
"Northwest?"
Ouyang Shuo fell into deep thought. He wondered if it was Qin Shihuang or Tang Taizong who had fallen.
"This is not what I want, but I have no choice."
At this moment, Ouyang Shuo was filled with melancholy. Whether it was Emperor Qin or Emperor Taizong of Tang, Ouyang Shuo only had respect for them. However, the situation had forced him to do so. In this vast wilderness, there was no room for both of them.
On the road to hegemony, there were many such helpless choices.
…
Tang Dynasty, Chang 'an City.
Tang Taizong, Li Shiming, gazed at the dazzling meteor in silence. "You finally made your choice. What about me? What should I do … "
Accompanying Emperor Taizong was a virtuous empress — Empress Zhangsun.
"Your Majesty, this concubine has always been looking forward to accompanying Your Majesty to travel the world," Empress Zhangsun said with a smile.
Li Shiming burst into laughter.
"Well, it doesn't matter whether I fight for it or not. I might as well let it go …" Between family and power, Li Shi Min chose the latter.
Holding Empress Zhangsun's warm and slender hand, Li Shi Min's lips curled into a smile.
…
On the 8th of July, Young Master Fu Su ascended to the throne.
On the same day, the new King of Qin, Fu Su, agreed to surrender to Great Xia's Special Envoy Zhang Yi.
Fu Su ascended to the throne and rewrote the history of Qin, but it seemed that nothing had changed. The only change was that in the following days, Fu Su would take the title of King of Qin and lead the Ying Family to continue to exist.
Such an ending really made people sigh.
On the 10th of July, Emperor Taizong, Li Shiming, passed the throne to Prince Jin, Li Zhi, who was also known as Emperor Gaozong of Tang in history. After that, Li Shiming and his wife, Zhangsun Wugou, disappeared from the eyes of the world and officially went into seclusion.
Before going into seclusion, Li Shiming ordered Wu Zetian to die. Although the Li Family could no longer be as glorious as in history, Li Shiming did not want his family to be destroyed by a woman.
The two emperors expressed their pride in different ways.
…
On the 11th of July, Jingshi.
Zhang Liang's plan succeeded. Great Xia conquered Qin and Tang in a peaceful way.
At this point, except for the Mongolian Empire and Tubo, which was annexed by the Ashoka Dynasty, the entire territory of Huaxia belonged to Great Xia.
The nine royal cities all belonged to Great Xia.
It was hard for outsiders to imagine what this meant, but in the eyes of the Chinese players, this was a great achievement that could be recorded in the history books.
To the Chinese, they were hopelessly obsessed with unification.
In the first year of Gaia, thousands of feudal lords struggled to survive in the wilderness, to the third year of Gaia, to the battle between Great Xia and Great Zhou, and finally to Great Xia's unification of Huaxia.
The entire process took Ouyang Shuo less than seven years.
If it wasn't for the game time, this would be impossible. After all, the game map was expanded by ten times, and from a small village, he had climbed step by step to the current illustrious dynasty.
Ouyang Shuo was destined to become a legend.
When Qin and Tang successively surrendered to Great Xia, the news had already spread throughout the world and attracted the attention of various parties.
…
Dawson Dynasty, Liberty City.
After learning that Great Xia had conquered Qin, Tang, and Song, Jack was speechless for a long time.
"Heh, this eastern dragon is finally going out to sea!"
When he said this, Jack's eyes were filled with excitement, but there was also a hint of worry.
After the unification of Huaxia, the Great Xia Dynasty would definitely focus on overseas expeditions in the future. They would fight head-on with the Dawson Dynasty and even the entire Silver Hand.
The moment that Jack had been looking forward to was finally coming, but he didn't know who would be the winner.
"It's time to make a good plan."
…
Mediterranean Sea, Atlantis City.
Queen Kalia stood on the tower, staring at the vast sea. "Will he come back?" Kalia didn't believe that Great Xia, which had suffered a huge setback in Morocco, wouldn't return to the Mediterranean Sea after unifying Huaxia.
"The Mediterranean Sea is going to have huge waves again. I'm really looking forward to it!"
As the territories in the Mediterranean Sea were annexed one by one, Atlantis was facing the attacks of the Spanish Dynasty, Gaul Dynasty, Caesar Dynasty, Arabia Dynasty, and Egypt Dynasty.
At this time, Kalia especially hoped to get the full support of Great Xia.
It was time to stir up the stagnant Mediterranean Sea.
…
Indian Empire, Cusco City.
After receiving the news that Great Xia had conquered three countries, Indian King Juarez didn't know whether he should be happy or worried.
He had to admit that in the past few months, the Indian Empire had been having a hard time facing the attacks of the Spanish Dynasty and the Brasilia Dynasty. They were already somewhat unable to control the situation.
"Should we let Great Xia intervene?" Juarez still couldn't make up his mind.
The Indians had their own pride.
