Chapter 202: Recommending Han Xin

Xianyang City, Afang Palace

At this time, the Afang Palace was like a folk vegetable market, and the civil and military officials quarreled endlessly. It has been a long time since Daqin's court has been so noisy, and I remember that the last time it was like this was more than ten years ago, when Daqin unified the six kingdoms at the last stop. General Li Xin's 200,000 army was defeated by Xiang Yan of Chu State, and when the court was arguing endlessly about who could destroy Chu, Wang Qian, who had already retreated bravely in the rapids, stood up again, but now who can win against Xiang Yu in the entire Great Qin court.

"Your Majesty, Xia Xiang County has been reversed, Xiang Yan's grandson of the old thief calls himself the overlord of Western Chu, and claims to the outside world that he has 100,000 Jiangdong elites under his command and has begun to attack Xia Xiang. In addition, the rest of the eight counties affected by the disaster are also fluctuating, and I am afraid that it will not be stable. Meng Yi arched his hand and said, his ministry has now received reports from major counties and counties, and now he is in an emergency.

"Your Majesty, in the land of the Nine Counties now, hunger is everywhere in the eyes of famine, if these homeless people can't solve it, I'm afraid it will become a big disaster." Feng Qujian also spoke.

......

......

After hearing the report from the ministers, the First Emperor was very angry in his heart, and his face leaked a look of displeasure. These people are really old, and they no longer have the heart to go in back then. Everyone was asking questions, but no one was willing to come forward and offer their own solutions.

The land of the nine counties was almost all the territory of Chu and Wei back then. Among the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, these two countries have the lowest recognition of Great Qin. Especially in the state of Chu, although the so-called Chu has three households, the death of Qin will be Chu. As the last of the six kingdoms to perish, almost every Chu State still has a Great Chu in their hearts.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the rebellion of the people is all the responsibility of us officials. If the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and every household has a stockpile, who will rebel? In my opinion, it is not good for us to provide disaster relief. Feng Qujian said an official in the party. His words are reprehensible, saying that disaster relief is not good, this is famously saying that Li Chen is not doing things well.

It's just that Li Chen is not alone now, and before this person's words fell, an official from the Ministry of Officials jumped out and said for Li Chen: "I'm afraid this lord has lived in the mansion for a long time and has never been out, now the land of the nine counties is full of bandits and robbers, not to mention that the official road is often destroyed, and the things of homeless robbers and robbers also often happen." ”

"Aiqing, is it really so difficult to transport grain?" The First Emperor said worriedly.

Today's nine counties are already the era of courage and food are kings, bandits and robbers are coercing the homeless, and the rebels are also coercing the homeless, anyway, as long as you have food, you can be a mountain king with the homeless. If you have more food, be bolder, and coerce more homeless people, you can take a county town and proclaim yourself a prince and a king.

"It's difficult, the rebels, the bandits and robbers have the guidance of the masters, they know that now food is the key. Whoever has food in his hand will follow him. So they are destroying our food routes day and night. Often, we need to build roads and move forward at the same time. When a truckload of food arrives at its destination, half of the consumption on the road is required. It's easier to destroy than to repair, and it may only take one night for us to repair it, and then they will destroy the road again. Li Chen said slowly, this is the current predicament. Zhang Liang is really difficult.

"According to Master Hou, I'm afraid that we can only fly to help the victims." Feng Quji sneered.

Feng Quji's words were like a heavy hammer hitting Li Chen's heart, and suddenly he seemed to sound something.

"What did Master Feng just say?" Li Chen asked.

"I said that it would be difficult to fly and send the grain over, and some people should not take this porcelain job if they don't have this diamond." Feng Quji scoffed.

"Your Majesty, I have a way, I have a way. Flying, Lord Feng is right, let's transport food from the sky, won't the rebels have no choice. Li Chen exclaimed.

“???”

"This kid is crazy."

"Master Hou is mad at the rebels."

All the ministers in the court are black question marks on their faces, and this is the beginning of the crazy main teammate, how to play this tm.

Li Chen saw that everyone was looking at him like crazy people, and he knew that he was talking to these hillbillies about hot air balloons and the principle of airship liftoff, and he was afraid that he would not be able to understand it for three days and three nights. However, in Li Chen's memory, the principle of whether it is a hot air balloon or an airship is not complicated, and it should not be a big problem to manufacture it with Daqin's current technology.

"Your Majesty, I'm not crazy. I dare to make a military order, and within half a month I will definitely be able to build a machine that can be lifted into the air. Li Chen said with an oath.

To say that although this Feng Qujian is annoying, he really did a good thing today, if he hadn't reminded him today, Li Chen really couldn't think of using a hot air balloon to transport food for a while.

Not to mention those small forces that can be destroyed at the snap of a finger, as long as the food problem is solved, even Xiang Yu's 100,000 army will not be able to make any big waves. Xiang Yu's 100,000 army, in the final analysis, is already all the young and strong laborers of the entire lower minister, these people include farmers who have just put down their hoes, small merchants and hawkers who have no power to tie chickens, and craftsmen who are proficient in craftsmanship, in short, I am afraid that there is no one in ten who really has combat effectiveness among these 100,000 people. This kind of rabble is okay if it fights with the wind, but if it doesn't go well in wartime, I'm afraid that birds and beasts will be scattered in an instant.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Xiang Yu must be exterminated, this person who claims to be the overlord of Western Chu is ridiculing Great Qin, and he must exterminate this person." Feng Qujian got up and said. In fact, it doesn't matter if Xiang Yu is exterminated or not, the main thing is that he is very happy if he can cause trouble to Li Chen.

"Your Majesty, what Lord Feng said is right, Xiang Yu must be exterminated."

Just when everyone thought that Li Chen was going to solve the problem of transporting grain first, Li Chen suddenly spoke up and echoed Feng Quji's statement.

In Li Chen's view, the food problem must be solved, and the battle that should be fought must still be fought. Li Chen had already made up his mind to deal with the forces of Xiang Yu and Zhang Liang. These are two outlaws, and they can't be left to cause chaos for Great Qin, because the rebellion they planned this time has delayed Great Qin's development by at least two years.

"The 50,000 Shenwu troops in Shimen Mountain outside the city are more than enough to fight the rebellion, and Your Majesty only needs to send a general to lead the army." At this time, Li Chen threw away the military power in his hand without any care. After all, the opponent is Xiang Yu, and he still knows how many catties and taels he has.

"The old minister, please fight."

"The old minister, please fight."

"The old minister, please fight."

Wang Qian, Nei Shiteng, and Li Xin immediately asked for battle.

"Li Xin, you better forget it. Back then, when people were grandfathers, you ran around, and it was still the scene where the old man went to rescue. If this grandson is beating you around, do you think about what you have become, do you have weights and measures for the Xiang family? "It is said that beating people does not slap their faces, and scolding people does not expose their shortcomings. Wang Jian didn't open any pot of this old thing, and immediately teased Li Xin about Li Xin's defeat by Xiang Yan.

"Old thing, you save it. Your loess is buried in your neck, what can you do? Li Xin shot back mercilessly.

"I'm buried in my neck, and you're no better." Wang Jian said indignantly.

"Your Majesty, the three old generals are old, I'm afraid they are not suitable to lead the army." Li Chen said.

The battle with Xiang Yu is a battle involving the fortunes of the Great Qin, this battle only needs to be won and not defeated, if the Great Qin is defeated, I am afraid that the situation will be more difficult to control. These three old generals are too old, and when they fight with Xiang Yu, they are afraid that they will fight the three old men at the beginning.

"Aiqing, will you have some generals?" The First Emperor said to Li Chen.

"The virtuous do not avoid relatives, and the minister thinks that if he wins Xiang Yu, he must be Han Xin." Li Chen said categorically.
