Chapter 019: The rescuer didn't come, and the interception came
The general Zhao Wujian saw a huge glorious future, and also saw the necessary prerequisites for this, to save the life of this prince and push him to become the king.
But with his own fifty people, he wanted to do it, so he strode forward and saluted: "Your Majesty, your lord." β
Zhao Xing immediately interrupted him: "Remember, when you speak in front of me in the future, don't jump word by word, speak word-by-word, no, it must be detailed, or who will understand?" Only by trying your best to explain the meaning you want to express, so that people can understand it, so that people will not misunderstand, and will not let people waste time guessing, this is the key. For example, by the way, what were you trying to say? β
Zhao Wujian was very dumbfounded and at a loss, his master didn't know what he was going to say, so he criticized himself with a face, which was really helpless.
But the lord is not wrong and cannot be refuted. So I had to honestly say myself again: "Next." β
"It's a subordinate, or I think it's under the foot or under the mountain."
"The subordinate is saying, Your Majestyβ"
"It's the king, or I thought you were talking about me."
"Yes, King, Kingβ"
"It's the king, the king. That's what I understand. β
Then looked at Zhao Wuji, who fell into the same wood chicken again, and saw that he didn't speak for a long time, and Zhao Xing, who was angry, went up and kicked him: "You go on." β
Zhao Wujian scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "That, I forgot what I was going to say." β
Zhao Xing is so angry, it's okay for you to call us two noble people to play.
"Monarch, feudal monarch, I remember, since this county is already the fief of the master, of course the people of this area are the subjects of the master, at this critical moment, please order the feudal monarch to recruit the subjects to protect the monarch and the safety of the feudal monarch, so as to protect the monarch and return to the national capital." Then he asked cautiously: "The subordinates are so verbose, do you understand?" β
Understood, quite understood. It's a pretty good idea, but there's a huge loophole here. That is, the current Zhao Yong is not a monarch, and Zhao Xing is not a feudal monarch. But don't worry about the details at this point. Pulling the tiger skin and pulling the banner, as long as these fifty people approve it, it is equivalent to the fact. And these fifty people are eager to approve, and that's easy to do.
Zhao Yong and Zhao Xing nodded in agreement without hesitation.
So, first sent ten men to announce that this piece had been given to Zhao Xing by the monarch and acted on behalf of Xingjun. Everyone is a subject of Dai Xingjun. Dai Xingjun asked to recruit the young and strong people, bring their own spear weapons, and bring dry food and water to protect the monarch and Dai Xingjun to return to the capital.
The people are blindly obedient and have no sense of the chaos above. But the huge has become the interests of the vassal people, making them more willing to accept such a reality.
Countless young men began to pick up the bow and arrow of the Ge contradictory brand, and began to assemble to the small hill, which was later called the place of Junqiu.
The Zhou people have not been completely damaged by Kong Laoer, and hundreds of years of conquest by the princes have made the Zhou people even more warlike. In this era, there is no such thing as a belligerent mortality. It's not good to die quickly, this is the truth of this era.
Zhao Xing looked at the swarming soldiers, and he happily talked to Zhao Yong about the safety of life.
As a result, Zhao Yong replied with a smile: "Teacher, you are bankrupt." What Zhao Yong said meant was that according to the rules, these future subjects of Zhao Xing had already responded to his levy, so he would be exempted from paying Zhao Xing taxes this year, three hundred people, and three hundred households would be taxed a lot.
Zhao Xing replied with a smile: "I think I earned it." β
"Why?"
Zhao Xing said a sentence that many years later, Zhao Yong finally understood: "Strange goods can live." β
At this time, Zhao Xing knew how small the population under his jurisdiction was, so he set the basic strategy in his territory - to have more children and plant fewer trees, and to have more children and raise fewer pigs. In the future, he began to cut down the outrageous, lush forests that grew everywhere in Daishire, clearing the land for farming, and laying the foundation for more children.
Of course, now we have to put the matter of having a child aside, because on the horizon, the rumbling chariot and the heavy dust are raised, and there will be a decision.
Three hundred soldiers, Zhao Yong and Zhao Xing, who would not have time to dodge again in the future, surrounded them tightly, and skillfully set up the formation of the guards. Zhao Xing stood on tiptoe and looked at the chariot that came out of the smoke and dust.
Fifty cars, what concept?
According to the Zhou rites, the brigade consisted of five soldiers, that is, twenty chariots, and five hundred soldiers; The division consisted of five brigades, that is, 100 chariots, 2,500 soldiers; The army consisted of five divisions, five hundred chariots and 12,500 soldiers.
However, this was the early Spring and Autumn period as well as the previous military system.
By the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the scale of the war was getting bigger and bigger, and by the Warring States Period, the war was unprecedented.
The number of troops that the major powers need to use also has to increase. However, the etiquette system stipulates that "the Son of Heaven has six armies", and other princes as long as they have more than three armies, they are considered to have violated the etiquette system. As a result, various workarounds arose in the various vassal states.
The vassal states quietly doubled their armies, and then doubled them again.
Now one chariot of the princes of various places was equipped with a hundred people. Although a brigade still had five soldiers and twenty chariots, the total number of soldiers reached two thousand, more than three times the original number; And one division reached 10,000 people.
Now fifty tanks, five thousand people, appeared on the opposite side.
It's a terrible comparison, eleven to one.
Zhao Xing was very worried, if Feiyi sent someone to pick it up, it would be a good thing, and if Gongzijie robbed and killed, it would be a disaster.
When the chariot galloped to the foot of the mountain, Zhao Yong cheered.
"Why the cheers?" Zhao Xing asked puzzled, with displeasure in his tone. On the line of life and death, where do you come from to cheer?
"It's coming, it's Zhao Guo's general." General Pi, the second-in-command of the national army.
Zhao Yong jumped out of the crowd and was about to catch up, but Zhao Xing grabbed him again: "Wait, wait until you figure out the enemy and me." β
Zhao Yong broke free reproachfully: "General, Fu Shuai in the army, Jun's father believes it, there should be no suspicion." β
It's okay not to say this, as soon as he said this, Zhao Xing directly grabbed Zhao Yong and threw him behind him: "The king has the intention of passing on the throne to the prince, since he will be a close confidant of the king, how can he not respect the will of the king?" β
Zhao Yong was reminded like this, and suddenly said: "Yes, this will be born, feast and drink with Gongzi Jie, think it is a confidant, and usually ignore me, it seems that this old boy is not a good silver." β
Being explained like this, Zhao Xing directly ordered his three hundred arms: "All raise bows." β
The two hundred archers immediately heard the wind and raised their bows and arrows high, which was a clear warning to the other party - don't come, I am very hostile.
