Chapter 225: I can't afford to provoke it, so I can only agree
It is very difficult to send a letter to Qin Wang Yingzheng in front of the Nine Heavens, but it does not contain a military intelligence report.
The battle report of the great victory of the attack on Korea went all the way from Wuguan to Xianyang, and every pass must be passed, all the way unimpeded, and every time it arrived in a city, it would be loudly proclaimed, so the messenger cavalry also sent dozens of troops this time, with more than 300 people.
All the checkpoints of the Qin State encountered the victory and waited for the riders, and they all reopened the city gates and let them go.
Outside Xianyang City, a loud shout, the Qin army won a great victory, destroyed Han in three days, woke up the lights of Wanjia, and there were more than 30 people waiting for the message, each of whom was carrying a box of bamboo slips, and one person and two horses broke directly into Xianyang City.
The Xianyang defenders saw that it was a summons and waited for the horse, and they all pulled out their antlers to let them go, but they were full of excitement and joy, the Qin army won a great victory, and destroyed Korea in three days, letting them know that the Qin army was victorious and Korea was destroyed. In Xianyang City, which was already under curfew, the people also walked out of their homes one after another, inquiring for news, and the Wuhou patrolling the streets did not stop them, they were also waiting for the messenger to come and explain the war and good news to them.
Lü Buwei was also woken up by the housekeeper, and hurriedly put on his official uniform and rushed to the palace of King Qin, and when he arrived, Yu, Li Si, Chen and other hundred officials of the Qin State were already waiting outside the palace of King Qin. Everyone was waiting for King Qin's summons, wanting to know the content of the good news as soon as possible.
The palace gate of the Qin King Palace was reopened, and the thirty marquis horses were also allowed to ride in the palace and go directly to the palace of the Qin king.
Yingzheng had already run to the palace of King Qin before he had time to put on his shoes, looked at the Honglu envoy carrying the bamboo slips and the banner of Lingyu, and hurriedly asked, "How is the war in Korea?" ”
"Report to the king, the Qin army is victorious, the national teacher destroyed Han in three days, broke through Xinzheng in South Korea, captured Han Wangan and the Korean clan, and is on the way back to Xianyang." The Honglu envoy hurriedly saluted and said.
"Good!" Ying Zheng said with a laugh.
"King, Honglu has been rushing all the way back and haven't closed his eyes for four days and four nights." Da Changqiu reminded.
Only then did Ying Zheng notice that the Honglu envoy was supported by the eunuch, and the inside of his legs was already blurred with flesh and blood, and hurriedly said: "Quickly pass on the imperial doctor's order." ”
"The good news is here, please take a look at it." The envoy took out a brief report written on cloth from his bosom.
Gai Nie hurriedly took it, and after confirming that there was no problem, he was snatched by Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng opened it and saw that this was just a brief description of the process of sending troops from Nanyang to attacking Xinzheng.
But Ying Zheng watched it several times in a row, but the smile on his face became more and more vigorous, and he couldn't put it down with the briefing.
"King Qiyu, Lord Xiangguo, Lord Guowei, Lord Tingwei, Imperial Doctor and other cultural relics officials are all outside the palace gate to ask for an audience." Da Changqiu spoke again.
"Xuan!" Ying Zheng waved his hand and said with a big smile. Then he realized that he was not wearing shoes, and the waiter hurriedly brought him shoes.
It's just that the thunderous snoring sounded, and Ying Zheng turned his head to take a look, only to find that the messenger had fallen asleep.
"Help him go down to rest, don't disturb the rest of the strong man, and let the imperial doctor order to follow." Ying Zheng lowered his voice and said.
The eunuch nodded, and carefully helped the Honglu envoy to the side hall to rest.
Lü Buwei and the others also walked quickly towards the Qin Palace, although they walked, but the speed was not slow at all, even an old man like Lü Buwei was like flying.
"Meet the King." The hundred officials stood still, saluted and said, but their eyes were all searching for the Honglu envoy who reported the victory.
"Dare to ask the king, what about the Honglu envoy who reported the victory?" Lu Buwei couldn't help but ask.
"The Honglu envoy has been sleepless for four days, so he is already tired and is resting in the side hall." Da Changqiu said.
"Korea has perished, the national teacher destroyed South Korea in three days, broke through the Korean capital Xinzheng, Han Wang An is bound to the jade, and the meat is leading the sheep to surrender, and he is already on the way to Xianyang." Ying Zheng said, and then handed the briefing to Lü Buwei and circulated it in the hands of the hundred officials.
"Good! Great goodness! Long live the Qin army, long live the Qin country, long live the king! Lu Buwei roared with excitement on his face.
When the other hundred officials saw it, they hurriedly followed, and then looked at the briefing in their hands, their faces were also red, and they shouted, so the entire Qin Palace followed suit.
"Spread the king's decree, the curfew in the territory of Qin was lifted for three days, and the good news spread throughout the territory." Ying Zheng said.
"No!" The officials replied one after another.
With the departure of the hundred officials, the caution of the good news began to spread from the Qin Palace, and the whole Xianyang was boiling, and all the Qin people took to the streets, singing and dancing, and carnivaling, and the whole Xianyang became a veritable city that never sleeps. Everyone was chanting Long live the Qin State and long live the king.
Yingzheng also followed Lü Buwei, Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, to drink and have fun in the palace of the Qin king, and stayed up all night.
But it was uncomfortable, because although the Honglu envoy was asleep, the war report was there, so his work came, he needed to review the entire war, and then count the military merits, compare them with the military merit book reported by Wuchenzi, and then hand it over to Ying Zheng and the hundred officials for inspection, and finally determine the reward.
Ying Zheng and others all know that in fact, this matter can be delayed, but they just don't want to play with you, you danced happily when we were unlucky, and now feng shui takes turns, it's time for you to watch us carnival yourself at work.
At first, Yu was a little depressed. But looking at the records of the meritorious officers and the records of the military Chinese book, coupled with the continuous review, Yu was excited, this method of combat is really a precedent, there must be more uses, so the entire Captain's Mansion is constantly reviewing and comparing. So much so that they all stayed up all night.
"Swift as the wind, how fast as thunder." Yu said with emotion, it is said that the cavalry of Zhao State is as fast as the wind, but there are too many ways to extend this style of play created by Wuchenzi. As a result, the entire state governor's office is studying the various uses of this method of warfare, the universality of various environments, and the methods of confrontation.
The next morning, the hundred officials of the Qin State found that the national lieutenant was gone, and he did not even come to the court with a bunch of generals. So Ying Zheng personally ran to the Governor's Mansion, but found that a group of people were discussing these various tactics, arguing so much that he didn't notice his arrival at all.
"Forget it." Ying Zheng glanced at Gai Nie and said, it's rare for these people to work so hard, and they still don't bother them. These people were the most leisurely in the whole Xianyang in the past, so they still didn't disturb their enthusiasm for work.
Finally, two days later, the Honglu envoy finally woke up, and then told the whole story of the war in front of the civil and military officials, which made people's blood boil, and finally drowned in the sound of Wan Sheng.
"Monuments? Or enjoy the incense, blood, and food offerings with the royal family. For this request made by Wuchenzi, the civil and military officials quarreled, and the civil officials did not agree that a group of mud-legged Qiu Ba could enjoy such a high treatment like the ministers of the scholar clan, and the king had to go to worship every year during the Cold Food Festival.
The generals unanimously agreed, especially Yu, he knew more clearly how much it meant to the Qin army of the Qin State, once this decree was completed, the Qin State would no longer worry about recruiting soldiers, and there would be no need to worry about the soldiers not having to die. It will definitely make the combat effectiveness of the Qin army increase a lot again.
"You must know that this is a request made by the National Teacher, not a suggestion for you to discuss." He looked at a civil servant and said.
What are you thinking, we really don't know, don't you just think that the status of our military generals is too high, and they want to suppress us, and they want to restore to Shang Ying, and the civil official status in the Zhang Yi period occupies a high position. But you have to make sure that you can afford to mess with dustless people first.
Sure enough, as soon as the words came out, the entire court immediately fell silent. This product never plays cards according to the routine, even Yao Jia kills when he says kill, and the king helps him wipe his ass.
The entire court of the Qin State, the Great King, the Imperial Captain, and the Imperial Historian were all his students, and the Lord Xiangguo also owed him favors. Now the generals are also supporting him. How can you oppose this, if you really want to oppose it, when he leads the army back to the court, it will be time to clean them up.
Lü Buwei and the others are not ordinary people, so they naturally know that Wuchenzi's requirement can greatly improve the battle of the Qin army, and it will become easier for the Qin State to recruit soldiers again. So there was no objection and it was directly agreed to pass.
"This method is not only feasible in the army, but anyone who has made meritorious contributions to Daqin can be listed on the monument and enjoy the incense, fire, blood and food offerings of Daqin." Lu Buwei said.
When the civil officials heard this, they reacted instantly, yes, it's not just the soldiers who have merit, they can also do it, so they feel a lot more comfortable, and sure enough, Lord Xiangguo will think about them.
Ying Zheng saw that the civil and military officials were all unified, so he spoke: "But all those who have made meritorious contributions to my Great Qin, regardless of their origin, whether they are men or women, whether they are nobles, witch doctors, musicians, and craftsmen, or businessmen and rangers, can be ranked on the monument and enjoy the blood and food sacrifices of the empire." ”
The civil and military officials were stunned for an instant, how could even the people of witch doctors, musicians, and hundreds of craftsmen, especially the people of merchants and merchants, be among them, is it even Youling?
"Why do you have an opinion? Isn't it possible for Shang Jia to be meritorious to my Great Qin, or do you think that Lord Xiangguo is not qualified to be engraved on the monument? Ying Zheng looked at Baiguan and asked. Wuchenzi told him that the people are not rich without business, and merchants are the hub that connects everyone, so he specially added these.
The civil and military officials looked at Lü Buwei, everyone knew that Lü Buwei was a businessman, but he made great contributions to the Qin State, ending the last bloodline of Zhou Tianzi and capturing Zhou Tianzi's Luoyang Jinggi. If Lü Buwei is not qualified, how can anyone have this qualification.
"We have no opinion!" The civil and military officials all bowed and replied.
"Historian, remember!" Ying Zheng glanced at the Taishi official who was responsible for recording the major events of the country and said: "Build a martyr's forest garden and a monument to Daqin on Lishan Mountain, all those who have made great contributions to Qin can be buried here, and all those who have contributed to Qin, regardless of origin and gender, can be engraved on the monument. This is the national policy of Great Qin. ”
Taishi Guan hurriedly took a note and wrote it down, this is a national policy, once it is written down, the descendants of Great Qin must abide by it.
"From today on, hundreds of civil and military officials will eat cold for three days, and the whole army will mourn and pay tribute to the soldiers who died in battle." Ying Zheng continued.
"No!" The civil and military officials all bowed and saluted, and the soldiers who died in the war to destroy Korea were indeed worthy of them, so there was no resistance.
