Chapter 198: Zhao Dan's New Deal and Qi Wangjian's Anger (Fourth Update)

In fact, the person who has the idea of joining the army is not only this little man.

Zhao Guo's grand reward conference spread throughout the land of China in just half a month, along with many measures announced by Zhao Dan at the meeting.

First of all, Zhao would establish two new armies, north and south. The Northern Army takes Le Cheng as the lieutenant general, under the jurisdiction of the Royal Forest Army and the Tiger Army, each army has two captains, responsible for guarding the safety of Handan. The Southern Army had four lieutenants who were responsible for guarding the Southern Great Wall of Zhao, and both new armies were under the direct command of the monarch.

Not only that, but the treatment of the North and South armies is also very amazing, after joining the North and South armies, you can get the corresponding knighthood, and at the same time enjoy the benefits of land, homestead, slaves and maids, and tax exemption for 20 years.

And the requirements are not too high, as long as you are familiar with battlefield fighting or horse archery, you can participate in the selection, and you can become a soldier of the Northern and Southern Army if you pass the selection.

However, there are differences in the qualifications for selection, all people from Zhao can sign up for the selection of the northern and southern armies, and people who are not from Zhao can only participate in the selection of the southern army.

The treatment of the southern army is also lower than that of the northern army, and the title is only given to the third level, which is not as good as the fourth level of the northern army, and the treatment and benefits are relatively reduced.

Secondly, Zhao Dan, the monarch of Zhao State, also issued a recruitment order at the meeting, announcing that talents from all countries can come to Handan to find opportunities, as long as there are indeed talented people, Zhao Dan will not hesitate to reward with official positions, and the highest can be a feudal monarch!

I have to say that this is indeed a very big deal.

Although it is said that since the Warring States period, the kings of various countries have been sparing no effort to recruit talents, for this kind of recruitment order, in fact, talents from various countries have long been commonplace.

However, with the huge prestige brought by the victory of the Battle of Changping of Zhao State, Zhao Dan's public voice this time still attracted the attention of the world, and many people who were unwilling in other countries began to set off from all directions and headed towards Handan.

The third news is about the administrative division of Zhao State, Zhao Dan redefined the administrative division of Zhao State, and divided the territory of Zhao State into Wuyuan County, Jiuyuan County, Yunzhong County, Dai County, Yanmen County, Shangdang County, Taiyuan County, Zhongshan County, Hejian County and other nine counties and Handan Gyeonggi region, and set up Jing Zhaoyin, Zuo Fengyi, Right Fufeng and other three auxiliaries to assist the monarch in governing the Gyeonggi region.

Along with the adjustment of administrative divisions, there are also intensive personnel adjustments, many new county guards have taken office, and many ministers of Zhao have been punished, dismissed and even punished because they have been investigated for various illegal acts.

During this period, a secret organization of Zhao State called the Supervision Guard also surfaced, and it was precisely because this Supervision Guard found out many black materials covered up by the ministers of the Zhao State that there was a vigorous and conclusive purge.

If the first three news are only the internal reforms of Zhao State, then this fourth news can be said to have really attracted the attention of the world.

Zhao Dan officially announced that he would build a Huaxia Academy Palace in Handan City after the beginning of spring, and took the famous Confucian literary giant Xun Guo as the big sacrificial wine of the Huaxia Academy, responsible for the preparation and future operation of the Huaxia Academy.

In addition, the Huaxia Academy welcomes all the sons and daughters to settle in, and if the sons and daughters of the hundred schools are recognized by Zhao Dan, then they can also be awarded the title of Zhao Guoxia and enjoy the corresponding preferential treatment.

Anyone with a little brain would be able to think that Zhao Guo was planning to use this Huaxia Academy Palace to challenge the status of the Chinese Academic Holy Land of Qi Guoji's Jixia Academy!

The news of the imminent establishment of the Huaxia Academy Palace caused an uproar.

In Linzi Palace, the capital of Qi State, King Jian of Qi summoned Hou Sheng as soon as he heard the news, and was furious at Hou Sheng.

"Houqing, look at this Zhao people, they are so insulted to the widow! If it weren't for your stupidity, how could the widow be humiliated by this Zhao Dan! ”

Qi Wangjian's scolding made Hou Sheng scold him completely unable to raise his head, and after half an hour, Qi Wangjian, who had finally lost his anger, stared at Hou Sheng and asked, "Hou Qing, how should you deal with this matter now!" ”

Obviously, Qi Wangjian needs Housheng to give an explanation.

Why Housheng? The reason is very simple, since the last time the Su Dynasty made a successful mission to Qi State, Hou Sheng has changed from a pro-Qin faction to a pro-Zhao faction, and usually says good things to Zhao State openly and secretly in front of Qi Wangjian.

It was precisely because of Housheng's activities that although Qi Wangjian did not send troops to help Zhao Guo, he generously insisted on transporting more grain and grass than usual to Zhao Guo at the cost of a large number of Qi people freezing to death in winter, which effectively supported Zhao State's logistical needs in the Battle of Changping.

As a result, the Battle of Changping has just ended, Zhao Wangdan turned his face and didn't recognize people, what kind of Huaxia Academy Palace is going to slap Qi Guoji's face in the face, who else can you find if you don't look for Hou Sheng, the leader of the pro-Zhao faction?

On the other side, Hou Sheng's heart is also bitter at the moment.

This uncle of Qi Guoguo is actually completely collecting money to do things, and in Hou Sheng's opinion, anyway, Qi Guo's current national policy is an isolation policy, and it is estimated that it will be rare to break out with Zhao in ten or eight years, but he didn't expect that Zhao Guo would come to this one just after the Battle of Changping...

So Hou Sheng felt that he was also a victim, and even if he was a victim, he was scolded for no reason, which is too wrong, right?

Hou Sheng thought for a while, gritted his teeth and said to Qi Wangjian: "King, since Zhao Guo is unkind, then don't blame us for being unjust." From today onwards, the shipment of grain to Zhao will be stopped! ”

Yes, since the agreement between Qi and Zhao at that time was half a year, so until now, there is still about a month or so of grain and grass that has not been shipped from Qi State.

Qi Wangjian nodded viciously when he heard this, and said, "Yes, from today onwards, the grain transportation will be stopped!" ”

But it was obvious that just stopping the grain shipment was not enough to satisfy Qi Wangjian, so Qi Wangjian continued: "Does Houqing still have a strategy? ”

Although Qi Wangjian knows very well that Hou Sheng's guy is not too reliable, the problem is that Qi Wangjian himself is even more unreliable, so he can only choose to listen to Hou Sheng's opinion on this matter...

As for the other ministers of the Qi Kingdom... To be honest, Qi Wangjian didn't take the opinions of other Qi ministers seriously at all, who let these ministers only know how to persuade Qi Wangjian to be diligent in political affairs and reduce pleasures all day long?

Hou Sheng thought for a while, and his eyes turned to Qi Wang Jian to have an idea.

"King, why don't you - even Qin to fight Zhao?"

Qi Wangjian was shocked when he heard this, and only said after a while: "Why did Hou Qing say this, did he want the widow to start a war with that Zhao State?" ”

Although it is said that Qi Wangjian was made angry by Zhao Dan's Huaxia Academy, if he said that he wanted to start a large army to fight, Qi Wangjian still felt a little worried in his heart.

It is not only because Zhao Guo's current momentum can be called the strongest in the world, but more importantly, Qi Wangjian himself does not want to fight.

Speaking of which, this is also the sorrow of the Qi country, a monarch who has reigned for forty-three years, is actually an out-and-out pacifist...

And to be honest, the thing of Jixia School Palace, with the catastrophe of the Five Kingdoms, has long since disappeared from the grand occasion of the past.

What's more, in the heyday of the Jixia School Palace, the monarchs of the Qi Kingdom actually didn't take the suggestions put forward by the advisors of the Jixia School Palace too seriously.

For such a thing that seems to have not hurt the Qi State in the slightest, except for the loss of face, to go against the newly rising overlord Zhao State? Qi Wangjian was really hesitant.

As soon as Hou Sheng saw Qi Wangjian's appearance, he knew that his nephew of the monarch had committed the mistake of indecision again.

So Hou Sheng coughed and said to Qi Wang Jianzhengse: "King, there are just a few Handan dancing girls in the minister's mansion, why don't you move the king's mansion and enjoy the dance of Handan Ji?" ”

Qi Wangjian thought for a while and gave an answer without hesitation.

"Good!"
