Chapter 168: Find another target for war
Zhao Xing is now busy with his own small life, and it is rare to return to the capital, and some things also need him to participate in decision-making, who made him a fake, although he didn't say anything, but he needed to participate.
Fei Yi is very satisfied with the situation this year, this is a rare and easy year for him to help each other: "Internal stability, the policy of freeing slaves with the Queen Mother as an example, with the active cooperation of the eight major clans, has been implemented very smoothly. Now that the income of our household treasury has doubled compared to previous years, and the people of the country have not complained, we have finally breathed a sigh of relief. And the new money that Xingzi brought to the treasury has greatly alleviated our finances. Then he said to Zhao Xing inch by inch: "If you can bring another three to five million money to the treasury at the beginning of spring-don't say it's impossible, because when I donated bronze this time, I donated all the bronze mirrors in my house." ”
Zhao Xing admitted that Feiyi was still qualified as a helper.
In fact, Zhao Xing did not agree with this donation, in his opinion, this was a search of the people under the moral kidnapping of the fruit, and in this operation, he was more willing to buy it with money.
"This spring, Xingzi will hand over another three or five million dollars, and we can see who we should launch a crusade against to conquer."
This is the Zhao State, which is famous for its fierce turmoil, and it has really reached the point where there are battles to be fought, and there are no wars, and the war of creation must be fought. Not long after Zhao Yong took the throne, all kinds of catastrophes had just subsided, and the country had not actually recovered from the war, so he was worried about war again.
For Feiyi's proposal, not only did no one worry, but everyone was eager to try.
And so, all kinds of enemies, potential enemies, and enemies that were about to be built were raised, and there were a lot of things. This simply made Zhao Xing feel that in this world, Zhao Guo had no friends, only enemies.
"We can't always catch whomever we want, we can't have no friends." Zhao Xing wants to change the tone of Zhao State's founding of the country where there are only enemies and no friends: "We now need to gather a group of friends to fight another enemy. And we can't always be on all sides, because it will make us tired and not rest. ”
For such a proposition, Fei Yi, who has suffered deeply, deeply agrees.
It's not easy for him to be a helper, starting from the upper assistant Zhao Suhou, the biggest thing to consider every day is the problem of war. Who can stand it after these decades?
But if Zhao wants to survive and develop and open up its territory, it must go to war. Seeking a way out in the constant war, so, as long as there is a chance, Zhao must find an enemy and fight with him.
Originally, when Zhao Suhou was carrying a knife, he was looking for revenge and fighting everywhere, but now Zhao Yongxiao doesn't stir up trouble and fights. As a result, the beams that his father knotted took advantage of his small size and carried knives to find him to fight and take revenge. It's endless, how can this be unbearable.
Zhao Xing continued to post his thoughts: "From now on, our national policy should change. ”
Zhao Yong asked curiously: "How does the teacher think it will change?" ”
Zhao Xingdao: "For us to realize the grand plan of the future, we must first solve our confidants, that is, Zhongshan, and then we must pacify and make friends with the princes in the south." Then, let us march north with all our strength without internal troubles and no constraints in the south, conquer Lou Fu, and destroy Lin Hu. After we have no worries in the north, we will go all out to the south, so that we can complete the great cause of hegemony and reunification. ”
was so clearly pointed out the strategy, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.
Fei Yi stood up and said happily: "Master, you are really far-sighted, in this way, the enemies around us, we are divided and divided, and we deal with them one by one, then we will be much easier." ”
Orchestra Pit nodded: "In the past, whichever side we dealt with, we would be constrained by the other side. As a result, whether it is for Zhongshan or Lou to annoy Lin Hu, the princes of the south and the west, we can only conquer and not destroy the country, and the result is always to make sandwich rice. If we do what the Master wants, if we fight one, we will destroy another, and if we fight another, we will completely cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, and our enemies will be reduced one by one, and it will be easier and easier for us to deal with them in the future. That's the fundamental. ”
"Therefore, now we must send envoys to Wei, Han, Xulu, Qi, Chu, and Song to show our sincerity and relieve the pressure on us from the south. As for Qiang Qin, we must adapt to the situation, resolutely stand with the majority of the princes, and denounce Qiang Qin. Zhao Xing waved his hand, and then emphasized: "Pay attention, it's condemnation." That is, we will definitely not use troops with the various princes of the South and the West. We will devote all our energies to dealing with the current enemy, Nakayama. ”
Zhongshan was a small power in the Warring States period, destroying the country twice and restoring the country twice. And every time he returns to the country, he becomes stronger, which gives Zhao Guo a headache.
"The reason why Zhongshan can continue to restore the country and become a big problem for our Zhao State is that he has the support of Qi State behind him. The country of Qi is too powerful. "Fat righteousness and painful way.
Zhao Xing replied: "The Qi State is strong, stronger than the salt and iron business. However, it has developed the national character of Qi State to be at peace with encounters, but in fact, the military strength is not strong. Their soldiers, although their armor is gorgeous and their weapons are exquisite, they have no heart to fight to the death in every battle, and they will flee in the blink of an eye. In this way, my four customs clearances will replace Linzi to become the largest metropolis in the world within three years, and at that time, it will seriously weaken the commercial prosperity of the foundation for which Qi was founded. And the steel produced by my technology on behalf of the Xingjun Mansion and the Zhao clan will also replace the iron smelting industry of the Qi State in one fell swoop within three years. Let the commercial foundation of Qi State be broken by another leg, and Qi State will inevitably weaken. What Zhao Xing hasn't said yet is that King Qi is about to ascend to the throne, and his ambitions will bring disaster to his country because they don't match his national character.
"So, Qi is not terrible. In fact, as long as we are determined to destroy Zhongshan and make friends with other princes to stand by, can't we deal with a single Qi country? ”
Zhao Yong said excitedly: "The teacher is far-sighted, everything is in the process of planning, and the teacher needs to preside over the plan to destroy Zhongshan." ”
Zhao Xingshili: "It is my duty. But the general can't be a wall-to-side. After all, this will be a battle to destroy the country, and with my generation alone, even if I have the ability to reach the sky, I will not be able to complete this important task, so Zhao Guo's Hufu cavalry shooting must be hurried. ”
Of course, Le Chi knew this truth, and nodded: "Since Xingzi's money and food are in place, I promise to train a strong army of 50,000 within three years." Then the conversation changed: "I don't know how much Xingzi Daijun can practice?" ”
Zhao Xing replied without concealment: "In order to destroy Zhongshan and observe Lin Hu's movements, my 30,000 strong soldiers have begun to take shape with the support of General Yin Qi and General Le Yi. ”
For such an ability speed, everyone present couldn't help but breathe in cold air for a while, but at this time, everyone was not worried about the powerful Daijun, but was only surprised by Zhao Xing's financial ability.
Le Chi lamented: "With the strength of a country, it is difficult for me to train 50,000 cavalry, Xingzi first trained 20,000, and then 30,000 but it is so fast, I might as well do it." ”
Zhao Xing smiled faintly: "The land is different, the people are different, and there is nothing to be frustrated about, as long as the general goes all out, it is a big event." ”
Zhao Yongshen thought so. Then he stood up and waved his hand imposingly: "Then, we will take three years to first marry the princes, train the warriors, and then we will hunt Zhongshan." ”
