Chapter 697: Why is he too anxious to fry each other with the same root (19)

Zhongli stiffened slightly, and looked at Jiang Jiaquan, which meant that Jiang Jiaquan was naturally clear, he sat on the side with a smile and did not interject.

"Because of my profession, I have also stayed in the Qin Kingdom for a short time, and the image given to me in the two places is completely different, Zhong Houye, do you want to know the difference between them?" Feng Fayong asked lightly.

"I want to hear about it!" Zhongli's face turned a little blue, although he knew that he had failed, he wanted to know the reason for the failure.

"The Qin state is strong, but the people are poor. I have traveled to many places in Daqin, seen the sharpness of Daqin's soldiers, and saw the people's desire to change their fate in order to fight for military merits, which is the reason why Daqin is eager to wear on the battlefield. And under the jurisdiction of the Eastern Army, the people are rich, and the people are rich, Zhongli Houye should also be very clear, the taxes under the jurisdiction of the Eastern Mansion, I am still very puzzled! Feng Fayong shook his head and said: "Qin Jun is brave, but the Eastern Army is also brave, but the people are poor and rich, Zhong Houye, have you thought about the difference between them?" Why are you on different paths, but when they are reflected on the battlefield, they are almost the same? ”

Zhongli couldn't answer this question, he had never thought about it at all.

"The Eastern Army is just a small land, the army is only tens of thousands, and the people are only one million, General Feng, do you think that the Eastern Army is comparable to my Great Qin?" Zhongli said coldly.

"Not necessarily." Jiang Jiaquan interjected with a smile on the side, "Zhong Houye, now that I conquer the Eastern Army, Liaoxi, Hejian, Prairie, and Hetao, I believe that it won't be long before Liaodong will also be in the pocket of my Eastern Army. ”

"Poor and remote, sparsely populated, what's the use of just having land? There are many people in the steppe who refuse to submit to the Xiongnu nomadic tribes, and the strength of Donghu still exists, and the deer is dead. It is still known, how can it be that my Daqin is as united as a rock, and Mr. Jiang is not afraid of people laughing out of his big teeth when he says this? Zhongli sneered.

"And wait and see!" As the victor, Jiang Jiaquan was unusually generous at this time.

Feng Fayong raised his hand and shook it, "Master Zhong, don't forget, in the beginning, Great Qin was just a poor and remote place for the Central Plains countries. But what about now? Let's go back to the original topic, the Qin people rely on squeezing the potential of the people to enhance their national strength, in Feng's opinion, the skyscraper of the Qin State is built on a pile of gravel, and the external ambition can still cover up the internal contradictions, once the war of your expansion does not go well, the domestic contradictions will inevitably break out, and this building may collapse at any time. And the Eastern Army is the opposite of you, maybe he still looks weak now, but his foundation is extremely solid, this. I'm sure you Black Ice Terrace will also have the corresponding information. So, I'm more bullish on them. ”

"That's all?" Zhongli asked.

Feng Fayong smiled, "There is a more important point, Zhong Houye said that I have received great favor from Xianggong Zilan. Do you know what kind of grace I have received? ”

"It's nothing more than the grace of life."

"It's the grace of life." Feng Fayong looked up at the roof, "At that time, my family was really poor, and there was a big drought. Many people starved to death, and I was lucky, if I hadn't met Zilan Xianggong when I was dying, I would have died long ago. But I am the only one left with a large family. Zhong Houye, I'm scared. ”

Zhongli understood the hidden meaning of Feng Fayong's words, but it was not a problem he could solve. He stood up, "General Feng, it's a pity, then next, I'm afraid we will have to meet each other." ”

"Waiting for you at any time." Feng Fayong stood up, "Hou Ye has gone all the way, in addition, those people from the Black Ice Platform in Shannan County please take them with you, it can be regarded as a little return gift from me to Zhong Hou Ye who came alone, if there is more, then don't blame me for being unkind, Hou Ye also knows what I do, and if you want to do those things under my nose, you can't help but look down on me too much." ”

Zhongli's face froze, and he nodded, "Accept it!" With a flick of his sleeves, he turned around and walked out.

Watching Zhongli leave, Feng Fayong turned around and looked at Jiang Jiaquan, "Mr. Jiang, I hope that no matter when you annex Daijun, Zilan Xianggong's cigarettes must not be cut off. ”

"Nature." Jiang Jiaquan nodded, "We don't promise, but if we do, we will definitely do it, General Feng, you will personally see and supervise the whole process." ”

"Then I'll be relieved."

"Speaking of which, the conditions offered by the Qin people are really good, to be honest, at that moment just now, I was really worried."

"Afraid I'm tempted?"

"Of course, such conditions can't allow people not to be moved, King Qin Wulie is really generous." Jiang Jiaquan sighed.

"I'm from Daijun, and Daijun has always been poor." Feng Fayong sighed, "Even if Zilan Xianggong is virtuous and virtuous, Dai County is the largest county in Dazhao, but it has always been the poorest county, I hope to change, I hope that my hometown will become rich, just like you Liaoxi people, you don't have to worry about tomorrow's food today, you can eat meat when you want, you can eat meat when you want, you can drink when you want, you can drink when you want, every New Year's holiday, the children have new clothes to wear, and when they are plain, the children have a school to study, instead of relying on luck like I did back then, so I survived to this day." Daijun returned to the Qin people, the end will not be good, at least not better than now, and still under the Zhao system, whether it is the king of Zhao or Zhao Qi in power, it will inevitably frantically retaliate for the losses caused to them by the Daijun people, I don't want to be like this, think about it, only you Zhengdong Mansion can still give me a glimmer of hope, I have been walking downstream of Zhengdong Mansion for many years, and those things I saw gave me hope. ”

"General Feng is benevolent, we will never let you down, although we are still in difficulty now, but at least, we will never let Daijun starve to death again."

"Thank you, that's exactly what I wanted to hear." Feng Fayong slammed to the ground, "Please." ”

"No, we should be grateful to General Feng for his profound righteousness."

Feng Fayong smiled bitterly, "I know that righteousness is not necessarily, I do this, I may be worthy of the people of Daijun, but I am absolutely sorry for Zilan Xianggong, after all, Zilan Xianggong died in your hands, although it is not your direct hand." ”

Jiang Jiaquan was silent, this is a fact, and there is no way to defend it.

"Zhongli returned disappointed, Wang Jian's army will inevitably return to Shannan County in the near future, and the big war is about to start, but I can't go to Xiling City to congratulate Gongzi on his throne. However, I will write a letter to show my determination to be faithful to the prince. ”

"That's enough!"

In Xiling City, Zhao Yong's ceremony of officially ascending the Daijun County Guard has passed for several days, because of Zilan's death, this ceremony is very simple, except for Feng Fayong in Shannan County, the other Daijun generals have rushed back to Xiling City, and expressed their support and support to Zhao Yong, and among them, the most eye-catching is nothing more than the 6,000 cavalry and 3,000 foot soldiers from the Eastern Army, it can be said that now the elite of the 20,000 Daijun led by Feng Fayong cannot return, This army of nearly 10,000 people was the main force to resist the Zhao army's re-attack.

Six thousand dragon spirit tiger fierce cavalry entered Daijun, which gave everyone, including Zhao Yong, extremely strong confidence, you must know that it is difficult for any single army of Zhao State to have such a large number of cavalry.

"General Ye, the preface has already sent news, Zhao Qi has started a large-scale collection of troops in Guangyang County, I am afraid that after the beginning of the year, they will launch another attack, the defense of Dai County, I am afraid you will have to worry a lot." Zhao Yong looked at Ye Zhen and said respectfully.

"On behalf of the county's defense, the county guard doesn't have to worry, with our army here, if the Zhao army dares to attack again, he will definitely have no return." Ye Zhen smiled and bowed.

"Then it really doesn't matter if you dismiss the people, in this way, the troops will inevitably be stretched, although your troops are strong, but most of them must be cavalry!" Zhao Yong was a little worried, "Guarding the city still needs manpower after all." ”

"Don't worry about the county guards, in the past, the strategy of the county was defense, but now we are here, but it is mainly attacking. As soon as Zhao Jun entered Dai County, it would be them who could not take care of themselves. Ye Zhen was full of pride, "Although Minyong has commendable courage and is not ischemic, they must not have been systematically trained, once they take over the battle, the damage will inevitably be very severe, and let them go home, firstly, to reduce losses, and secondly, because after the beginning of spring, they will have to spring ploughing, which is fundamental!" The plan of the year lies in the spring, which cannot be delayed. ”

"Speaking of food, I also ask General Ye to say to the Gaodu Governor, in this war, the grain storage of my Dai County has been consumed, and I am afraid that it will be a little difficult in the next spring, and I have to ask for more assistance from the Eastern Mansion."

"Regarding this, there are already some bills in the house, and when the governor returns, they can be implemented, but please rest assured, although it is also difficult for me to conquer the Eastern Army, I will never let my friends go hungry." Ye Zhen smiled and groaned.

"Those tens of thousands of prisoners of war are really hateful, and it is impossible to release them, but raising them like this is a waste of our already small amount of food." Thinking of the standing army of Zhao State that surrendered under Xiling City, Zhao Yong was angry.

"If the county guard thinks it's a bit troublesome to deal with them, why don't you leave it to me to deal with the Eastern Army?" Ye Zhendao.

"Over to you? That's 30,000 people, no matter where you put it, it's not worry-free!" ZHAO Yongdao.

"We have a place to put them." Ye Zhen said with a smile: "You also know the county guard, we just defeated Donghu in Hetao, there, a large number of manpower is needed, these Zhao army prisoners, but they are all strong laborers, and when they go to that place, in addition to our army, they will face the Donghu people, but there is no room for them to make trouble, because where, without our protection, their lives are in question. So we get a lot of labor, and you don't have to worry about these people anymore, kill two birds with one stone, what do you think?"

"That's great!" Zhao Yong was overjoyed, "The Eastern Army of the Expedition has contributed people and money and food for me on behalf of the county, and these prisoners can be regarded as some of my gratitude to the governor of Gaodu, let the governor deal with it, and I will never ask on behalf of the county."

"In this way, thank you to the county guard!" Ye Zhen's heart was really happy, nearly 30,000 prisoners of war, when they arrived at the Hetao, it could enrich a large area and reclaim countless wasteland. (To be continued......)
