At night, the lobby of Xingjun's Mansion was brightly lit, and Zhao Xingpao pulled away Xu Jie's hand, who wanted to see the injury: "Hurry up, have a meeting, have a meeting." ”

Dozens of important officials immediately gave up the wounds of life and death on the Lord and sat solemnly.

"Everyone's good days are over, and we're going to fight." Zhao Xing excitedly announced that this was good news for Zhao Ren.

Dozens of important officials also cheered.

It's good to fight, fighting a war means that everyone has military merits, it means that you can enter the knighthood, and it means that you can squeeze into the aristocracy.

Xu Jie is even more eager to try, he wants to be a nobleman and wants to go crazy.

But Qi Fei frowned and remained silent, feeling that he was under a lot of pressure.

The military system of Xingjunfu is no longer a conscription but a standing army. Therefore, the money, food, and equipment for each war are no longer provided by the conscripted people, but must be sent out by the household department of the Jun's government. War, spending money, flesh hurting.

Wei Yong asked with a hungry gaze, "Lord, who are we fighting this time?" ”

Zhao Xing looked at him with a wicked smile: "With your old country Wei, well, I have decided to withdraw your military envoys now to prevent you from communicating with foreign countries." ”

At that time, Wei Yong's face changed greatly: "I only know that there is a family master, but I don't know that there is a Wei country, and the lord does not trust me so much, so I will die." Then he pulled out the sword at his waist and wiped his neck.

The other officials also drew their swords together, and they all wanted to wipe their necks.

This is not to blame Zhao Xing, because these words are too hurtful. Because all the officials of the Xingjun Mansion came to the various vassal states, Zhao Xing's meeting was almost equivalent to the United Nations General Assembly. When he said this, he killed the whole boat with one shot.

When Zhao Xing saw one of his jokes, he immediately turned his lobby into a slaughterhouse, and immediately jumped up and grabbed Wei Yong's hand: "Put it down, put it down, I'm just joking, look at your embarrassment." ”

Xu Jie put the sword across his neck, eight feet away from his neck, and said loudly: "You have no jokes, you are a king, you can follow the law, how can you joke casually?" ”

"I was wrong, I won't joke anymore, everyone put it down, or you have to splash my blood. This week's robe is very expensive. ”

Zhou Tong defended: "Although we have come to various vassal states, we are firmly loyal to the king's ministers and loyal to the king. The Lord is like this, even if it is a joke, it is also a loyalty and humiliation to us, and the soldiers can be killed but not humiliated, come and come, everyone continues to wipe their necks. ”

Wipe your neck and continue to drag on, won't it be over at once. So, everyone continued to use their swords to make a gesture on the neck of the family, and the farther and farther they were drawn.

Originally, Zhao Xing was a little cautious about making this scene, but it turned out to be so out of control, he was really stupid at the time. There is really no other way than to constantly make compensation to everyone.

When he was embarrassed, a crisp voice sounded: "Gentlemen, don't worry about this unreliable guy, if you gentlemen have three longs and two shorts, who will assist my future children?" Please gentlemen, calm your anger, and treat the slaves at night. ”

This is really a lady's horse, a top two, that is, a sentence of the son of the world, who assists, will gain everyone's loyalty at once, so they have given gifts to the master's mother: "I will be loyal to assist." ”

It's just a small temptation, but it turns out to be true, Zhao Xing regrets it very much, if it weren't for Mrs. coming out to solve the siege, this time it would have been a big deal.

Inviting his wife back, Zhao Xing sat on it again, and then looked at the officials below worriedly, everyone seemed to have nothing happened, and began to report on the work of Zhao Xing in the past six months.

The situation is very good, and it is really a political communication and a prosperous situation.

And the most excited is the household Qi Fei: "The policy of family members returning to the owner of the family is too good, not only 100,000 slaves have been resettled and rescued, but also attracted the migration of various families in the country, at the same time, in order to grab more wasteland, they have also bought slaves from outside, three years later, according to our slave release order, our people's population will reach 2 million in a blink of an eye." ”

Two million, such a population size is nothing in later generations, but in this era, it is the scale of a medium prince, and the small princes have not looked at it.

The increase in population will not only bring the foundation for wealth creation and so on to Daijun, but most importantly, it will bring a huge tax to the household department of Xingjunfu - the poll tax, which is a positive tax. One person earns 100 yuan a year, that is 200 million yuan.

And the land tax on the land that has been reclaimed, wow—

"Those domestic families set up branches in Daijun, and they brought us all kinds of workshops, so that we no longer had a shortage of tools, and brought us huge taxes." After being excited, he complained: "But there is a lot of income, a lot of expenses, and the treasury, in fact, there is not much money left." What this means is that in this war, it is still necessary to save some flowers.

Zhao Hao has not interjected, because now the discussion is about money and food, and there is no part for him to intervene.

Zhou Tong also groaned and said: "If this war can be delayed for another year, it would be better to give us time to recuperate." ”

Zhao Xing shook his head: "Why don't I want to?" But the situation is forcing us, and it is not a question of whether we want to fight or whether we don't want to fight. So, I explained to everyone what happened in the national capital.

"I stabbed the hornet's nest with the monarch in advance, and now the domestic chaos in the Zhao State is extremely fierce and chaotic, all kinds of jumping clowns have jumped out, and a group, at least fifteen lords, have formed an alliance to launch a real rebellion against the monarch, and at the same time, they have sent envoys to the Wei State to welcome Gongzijie back to the country."

Everyone has known about Zhao Guoguo for a long time, but they didn't expect the chaos to reach such an extent, one by one, their hearts became heavy again, and they were secretly complaining about the recklessness of the Lord.

"In order to allow Zhao to gain stability for a longer time and achieve our grand goals, we must eradicate the forces that are dissatisfied with the monarch and are undead to Gongzi Jie. Gongzijie must be introduced into the country to eradicate future troubles, the strength of the fiefdom and feudal monarchs must be weakened, and the family armed forces in the country must be cut off. So, we have to fight this battle as soon as possible. ”

As soon as Zhao Xing explained, everyone understood, and they no longer opposed it and supported it again.

But when he was about to face the old overlord, everyone was still beating the drum in their hearts, and Wei Yong said bluntly: "Although Wei Wushu has no Wu Qi, his military training has been inherited, so Wei's combat effectiveness is still very terrifying." The reason why Zhao was able to retreat from the Five Kingdoms to Zhao last time was because the lord was plotting outside, and inside, the people of the country hated the same enemy, and the goal was achieved by breaking the net. But this time is different from the last time, and I ask the Lord to seek it again. ”

Xu Jie also said: "Although it is the Wei family this time, there is an internal response in China that supports Gongzijie, and the internal and external troubles are more dangerous. ”

Zhao Xing nodded: "What Dr. Wei said is right. Therefore, this time, I helped the monarch to discuss with him, and the monarch led the cavalry trained by the orchestra to deal with civil strife. I think that with the sons of the various families making trouble, the civil strife should be quickly quelled. And we will concentrate on dealing with the Wei army. Then solemnly reminded: "In other words, we will have to deal with the Wei army independently." ”

As a result, as soon as this task came out, everyone took in the air conditioner.

With the feudal lord of a country, against an old alliance lord and a country, how huge is the contrast in strength?

Zhao Xing smiled indifferently: "Don't worry, we don't want to destroy his Wei State, we just need to defeat him, even if we defeat him, we will be able to achieve my goal." ”

"For what purpose?"

Zhao Xing said leisurely: "My terrifying identity, although I have been recognized by the people, but I also need to use my strength to defeat the Wei State to make the people fear me, so that I can implement our reform measures in the Zhao State." ”

This is Zhao Xing's ambition.

Everyone finally understood that Zhao Xing no longer wanted to shrink back from the reform, he wanted to implement his reform with great fanfare across the country.

To be a reformer, it is not enough to have prestige, but at the same time, you must have the strength to make people afraid and dare not resist.

Everyone is infinitely pleased and excited by the Lord who has such a long-term vision and such a meticulous work.

Moving and exhilarating alone will not achieve the goal, and it will not be able to defeat the army of the overlord Wei that is facing independently. You also need strength to speak.

Everyone has seen the huge advantage of Hufu cavalry over chariots, but they only have a half-baked army of 20,000 trained, and they may have to face an army of 100,000 or more in Wei.

You can achieve your goal by winning a battle, but you have achieved your goal, but the war is a matter of two sides. It is estimated that the greatest probability is that Wei will not do it.

The reason is that an old overlord, although he is already a declining old overlord, is defeated by a feudal monarch among the princes, which is very embarrassing. The hegemon is absolutely face-saving.

At the same time, his henchman Zhongshan Country is also ready to move, and he also needs to stay in the army to defend, especially now that Daijun is not as poor and weak as the original Daijun.

Now Daijun has become a piece of fat. Zhongshan looked at the fat on the side of his mouth, and his eyes were absolutely red. In this way, it is necessary to stay in an army, otherwise, it will be difficult to fight with the Wei State, and as a result, the old nest will be ended, and everything will be fine.

The troops are insufficient, and they are overstretched.

At this time, Zhao Hao spoke: "Doctors, if according to the Lord's will, as long as we fight the first battle, we are not talented, and leave 5,000 to take care of the homeland, I will be able to do it with 15,000 soldiers, and I have enough confidence in this." ”

Everyone is still aware of Zhao Hao's ability, and of course they are not worried about the success of the first battle.

Zhou Daodao: "With the ability of a general, the cavalry is brave, and the Wei State would never have imagined that we would suddenly attack, so it should be possible to win the first battle by surprise, but what about the follow-up?" ”

Zhao Hao said calmly: "I will have to increase the number of troops in the future, otherwise I can't do anything." ”

"In terms of troops, it's not a problem, because, I still have my good Andalodi, and I'm still Lin Hu Xiang." After Zhao Xing said this, he was triumphant.
