Advancing eastward meant starting a war with the princes first, and advancing westward meant destroying the Qin Dynasty first.

Now Wang Buxing occupies the best position, but it is also not the best position.

If you are not careful, you will end up with enemies on all sides.

This is no joke.

Now Wang Buxing's forces are really too strong.

Don't look at it, there is not even a complete county, but all the territory is combined, and there are two counties.

And subsequent expansion is not very laborious at all.

What's more, Wang Buxing has more than 400,000 soldiers!

What is this concept?

If you are arrogant, the king is not hungry and can even attack at the same time.

"I have so many people?" When he heard Chen Ping say that he had 400,000 troops, Wang Buxing said that he couldn't believe it.

Before the expedition, there were less than 200,000, why did you fight a battle, disbanded so many Zhang Han's troops, and doubled on your side?

"More than 70,000 in Xingyang, more than 80,000 in Aocang, more than 80,000 in Luoyang, and more than 30......,000 in infants," Chen Ping began to count with his fingers.

These are troops that were there before the expedition.

Although Wang Buxing gave Chen Tieshan 10,000 people, he subsequently incorporated part of Sima Xin's army.

So that's all there is to more than 270,000 people.

Chen Ping continued: "Peng Yue has more than 20,000 people, and Chen Duwei has almost raised an army of 70,000 people in Yingchuan County, plus the tens of thousands of people selected by Zhang Han, isn't this more than 400,000 people?" ”

Wang Bu was hungry and surprised to smack his lips, who would have thought of this? Who would dare to think about it?

In a year, from a few hundred people, to more than 400,000?

I was going to be doggy, but it turned out to be ......

Forget it, the past is unbearable, and the past is gone, whether it is good or bad, don't mention it......

"Childe, the minister suggests going west!" Regarding the route, Zhang Liang said it directly without much thought.

Wang Bu was also thinking about this problem.

At this moment, the significance of westward expansion is greater than that of eastward expansion.

After all, the capital of the Qin Dynasty is in the west, and although Guan Ying has not yet taken Hangu Pass, according to the information sent back, it is time to start immediately.

Therefore, in the middle of the dispatching of troops, the last line of defense in front of Wang Buxing was gone.

And westward to face the Qin Dynasty, as long as Xianyang is taken and the Qin Dynasty is destroyed, then naturally, the Han Dynasty will become the new dynasty.

Even if the strength of the Chu State is not bad, it is still a little weaker than the current Wang Buxing.

In addition, a series of policies of Wang Bu are not hungry, almost all of them are conducive to recuperation.

And this plays a greater role in the common people.

Everyone is tired of fighting and doesn't want to fight, at this time, Wang Buxing appeared with a thunderous momentum, and supplemented by various measures to reassure the people, it is easy to pull the people's hearts over.

The people's will is useless?

This is a big fallacy.

Wang Bu is hungry and now has food and people, it can be described as strong soldiers and horses, not to mention those princes, even the Qin Dynasty is not an opponent.

After the destruction of the Qin Dynasty, the prestige will inevitably rise to a new level, and at that time, there will be more people who respond.

In this era, people and food are fundamental, and everything else is floating clouds.

"Prepare to go west!" Wang Buxing nodded, this was an obvious choice.

However, Wang Bu was not hungry and did not intend to come out of the nest.

One is that it is not needed, and the other is that there is no chance.

"Dispatch 200,000 troops to deploy in the line from Luoyang to Hanguguan, and the rest of the troops will continue to occupy Yingchuan, Nanyang, Dongjun, Hanoi, and Hedong County, and after the occupation, recruit troops on the spot to take one out of every 20 people, and garrisons around the country will practice once every five days, and after the beginning of spring in Guantian Tuntian, next year's tasks will be two, destroy Qin, Tuntian!" Wang Bu was not hungry and continued.

The national capital has been established, and the that is blown out should also be fulfilled.

The policy is good, and one person is selected from 20 recruits, for example, if there are 10,000 people in a county, then the number of recruits in this county cannot exceed 500, and this is also good, and it is conducive to the people engaged in farming.

But the question is, what do the 400,000 army eat?

The stored grain in his hand is enough to eat for a year, and if he takes Guanzhong, there may be more than enough food.

But that's three or six years of exemption, can this little food feed all the troops for so long?

The reason why the king was not hungry and dared to exempt the tax for three years was because there was official land to replenish it, and the output of the official land was far more than the little tax collected.

It can even be basically determined that the annual output of the entire Guantian under his rule is enough for Wang Bu to go to the waves for more than two years.

Take Hanjiazhuang as an example, 7,460 mu of cultivated land is allocated, and a tax of one stone is charged for every five mu, and a total of 1,492 stone can be collected.

After the distribution, there are 2,412 mu of official land, which is calculated according to the average yield of one and a half stones per mu, which is 3,618 stones, which is still the minimum yield.

Again, this income basically doesn't require much care, just according to the previous model.

It is foreseeable that the people's enthusiasm for cultivation will be higher now, and once other wasteland is developed, the income of government land will be higher.

In other words, the role of Guantian is not only to release the pressure on the people, but also to prepare for foreign wars.

Relying on the income of the government to go to war with foreign countries and relying on the constant increase in taxes on the people to go to war are two completely different results.

Next, the group discussed some other things.

Before the founding of the country, there were a lot of miscellaneous things.

Although the king is not hungry and does not have to be responsible for everything himself, there are some things that he needs to know.

Of course, Wang was not hungry and did not forget to continue to reiterate the chicken soup he had just poured out.

That's not just chicken soup, it's my future goal.

And under Wang Bu's repeated reminders, Zhang Liang and Chen Ping paid attention to it.

This is very important, the boss points the way, and they can plan how to go.

Although this direction is a little too far.

So, Wang Buyu once again reiterated his small goal, to destroy Qin next year and dominate the world within three years.

Now Zhang Liang and Chen Ping are much more comfortable, although this goal seems far away, they are confident to complete it, and they also know what they should do.

In the next few days, Wang Bu was hungry and finally realized what it meant to not touch the ground.

For the canonization of the soldiers, rewards, etc., this needs to be confirmed by the king without hunger.

After a series of days, Wang was not hungry and even had a feeling that he didn't want to be this Han King, he was so tired, whoever likes to do it......

Finally, the time came to the second year of Qin II, late September.

The first day of October is the day of the establishment of the country and the title of king, which is a good day, the New Year of the Qin Dynasty.

Although there is no auspicious New Year, Spring Festival, going home for the New Year or anything, this is indeed the beginning of the new year, and choosing this day is just the right time, but it symbolizes a new beginning.
