The goose-feather-like snow fell from the sky one after another, giving people the feeling of only one word - cold.

The earth inside and outside the thistle capital is white and covered in silver.

When the heavy snow stopped, Jidu City and the surrounding villages and towns suddenly became noisy.

A large number of people went out of their homes and began to clear the snow-paved roads.

In the past few years, the people of Jidu have become familiar with such operations.

Cleaning up the heavy snow in front of your house is your job. Then, the government will send people to organize the people to clean the roads in their jurisdiction, especially the official roads, and give the people a certain amount of compensation.

Prime Minister Su Dai is very old, but his spirit seems to be very good.

Walking into the Affinity Hall, my whole body suddenly felt warm.

An attendant stepped forward and took the big hat that Su Dai had taken off. At this time, I heard Ji Kang's voice in the hall on the left side of the hall: "Su Xiang is here, come in." ”

Su Dai agreed, stepped into the room on the left, and bowed to Ji Kang, who was sitting in front of him, and said:

"Minister Sudai, meet the king."

"Su Xiang doesn't need to be polite, sit down and talk." Ji Kang said to Su Dai.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Su Dai raised his head and found that his king's desk was neatly stacked with papers. Around the desk, Ju Xin, Su belly, Jiang Qu, Rong Yan, Ji Mao, Huang Yong, including Ju Wu and Tian Guang were also there.

After Su Dai sat down on his seat, he heard Ji Kang say to Rong Yan, "General Rong Yan, you can continue." ”

It seems that the deliberations have been going on for half a day.

Rong Yan got up, bowed down and said to Ji Kangyu:

"Your Majesty, now the second, fifth, and seventh armies of our army, as well as the three reserve armies, are all stationed in Shanggu County. Together with the First Army of Shanggu County and the reserve army and construction corps of Shanggu County, under the command of Changguo Junlejian, they have been put into winter training. At this time, my army stationed in Kamiya County had reached nearly 300,000 people. ”

"In addition, the Fourth Army of the Army has arrived in Zhongyang County to join up with the Eighth Army, a reserve army led by General Liu Sheng. In Zhongyang County, the army of our Yan Kingdom has also reached 100,000. ”

"The Tenth Army of the Army is stationed in Jixi County, and the Third Army of the Army of Hu Guiliang is stationed there, a reserve army, under the command of General Wang Shi, and the total strength has reached 100,000."

In addition, Bo Wang, the general in Weijun, commanded the Sixth and Ninth Armies of the Army, as well as a reserve army, with a total strength of 100,000. Your Majesty, the 600,000 troops of our Yan Kingdom have been fully deployed in the border near the Zhao Kingdom. ”

After listening to Rong Yan's words, everyone in the hall fell silent.

The army of 600,000 was deployed to the border of Yan and Zhao at this moment. Everyone knows that in the spring of the next year, the battle of Zhao is inevitable. This is the largest foreign military use by the Yan State in hundreds of years.

It can be seen from this that Yan Guo's determination to destroy Zhao in the coming year has been made.

Ji Kang picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, he didn't want to talk much about the war against Zhao at this time.

He cleared his throat, changed the topic, and asked at Ji Xin and Su Bei:

"It's coming to the end of the year soon, how are the displaced people who came to my Yan country settled now?"

The issue of resettlement of displaced people is the responsibility of the Prime Minister.

Su belly stood up and said to Ji Kangyu:

"Your Majesty, since the beginning of winter, all the displaced people who came to my Yan country have been settled. Judging from the current situation, there is still a steady stream of displaced people, and the counties close to the borders of Zhao, Wei, and Chu are still under great pressure. ”

"This winter, we can only give these displaced people who come to my Yan country a simple resettlement. If we want to completely solve this problem, we can only wait until after the beginning of the Spring Festival and then properly and thoroughly resettle. ”

After Ji Kang listened to Su Bao's words, his brows furrowed slightly.

After pondering for a moment, he said to all the people in the temple:

"If the world is not unified for a day, the people will not be able to live in peace for a day. Judging from the twists and turns given to the widows by the border counties, from the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, and Chu to my Yan country, the starving corpses were scattered on the way. ”

Speaking of this, Ji Kang suddenly knocked on the desk, and his voice couldn't help but get louder:

"Every time a widow sees such a report, he will not be able to sleep at night. The monarchs and ministers of these countries, the lords and nobles, such as the jade plate delicacies of today. But who of them would have thought that these people who froze to death and starved to death? ”

Everyone stood up together, bowed down and said in unison, "My king is angry." ”

Pavilion Xiangju Xin stepped forward and bowed to Ji Kang and said:

"The king doesn't need to be angry, the court has sent instructions to all counties to ensure that the people who come to my Yan country will not be starved to death or frozen to death. At the beginning of the following spring, each county will build a building in advance to prepare for future incidents. ”

Ji Kang nodded, suppressed his anger, turned his head and asked Rong Yandao:

"The bones of the soldiers who died in the war this year have been placed in the martyrs' cemetery, right?"

Everyone's eyes looked at Rong Worm again.

"Your Majesty, there are more than 32,000 soldiers who died in the defense of the land this year, and the ashes of these heroes have all been moved into the Xishan Cemetery built this year, and a monument has been erected as a memory."

"According to the king's orders, the names of all these soldiers who died in battle have also been engraved on the martyrs' monument in the cemetery square, and they have enjoyed the sacrifices of the government and the people for generations."

After Su Dai returned to Yan, he knew that Ji Kang attached great importance to the soldiers who died in battle.

In Xiangping, Yangle and the county capitals of various counties in Liaodi, there are special similar martyrs' cemeteries to pay tribute to the soldiers who died in battle. Moreover, these places where the bones of the soldiers killed in the war are placed in Ji Kang as "cemeteries".

In this era, the name "mausoleum" was used, which was a special noun for the cemetery after the death of the king.

And the Yan Kingdom named the place where the soldiers were killed in the war "cemetery". In the eyes of everyone in the palace, this is the greatest grace and courtesy that Ji Kang, as the king of a country, gives to these soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country; From the people's point of view, this is their own king, sharing the fortunes of a country with these martyrs, and using it to benefit the relatives and descendants of these soldiers.

In the west mountain of Jidu, this cemetery built can be called the largest cemetery in Yan country.

Construction has been underway since the end of the expedition, and after three years, it will be officially completed by the end of August this year.

For soldiers who died in battle and made great achievements, Ji Kang will give them nicknames and seals.

As long as the Yan Kingdom does not die, these soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country will receive the incense of the Yan Kingdom for generations.

Such an approach can be said to be unprecedented for countries today.

Su Dai knew that for example, the kings of all countries today, none of them planned like Ji Kang for the soldiers and generals who died in battle. Even if it is said to be a purchase of people's hearts, it is also a treatment that people dare not think of.

The soldiers and people of Yan Kingdom, any one of them has their own posthumous name, engraved on the martyr's monument, buried in the cemetery, and enjoyed the idea of thousands of years of incense sacrifice.

The people of Yan and the soldiers dared to die on the battlefield and shroud their bodies in horse leather, which is also a big reason.

Gao Yang Jun Rong continued to say: "Your Majesty, as for the more than 40,000 wounded soldiers, more than 30,000 of them have returned to the army after being healed at the moment, and some of the severely disabled soldiers have been properly settled in the local area and given a lifetime of money. ”

After listening to Rong Hao's report on the martyr's cemetery, Ji Kang said to Rong Yan:

"This is very good, this year's year-end sacrificial ceremony is jointly presided over by the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Ministry of Rites. In the future, whenever the war is over, a national sacrifice will be held in that year to commemorate these soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country. ”

"That is, the world will be peaceful in the future, for these soldiers who died on the battlefield, my Yanguo court will also have a small sacrifice in five years and a big sacrifice in ten years to comfort these martyrs who sleep on the ground. This is a permanent example. ”

After Ji Kang said this, he didn't think too much.

But for everyone in the hall, the impact is not small.

Rong Yan, a general who faced life and death on the battlefield, knelt on his knees, and solemnly saluted Ji Kang and said:

"On behalf of these soldiers who died on the battlefield, thank you for the king's grace."

"General Rong Yan, this is what a widow should do, please hurry up."

The attendant ordered Wang Cong to hurriedly step forward to help Rong Worm up, and found that Rong Worm had burst into tears.

Several ministers in the hall, as well as Ju Wu and Tian Guang, all stood up and bowed to Ji Kang.
