Chapter 36: Up the Cliff!

The sea was calm tonight, and it happened to be a tailwind direction, and it was not long before the ships made their way out of the coastal posts of the Yue and Hu people, and advanced towards the cliff drawn by Liu Cheying on the map.

This coastal area is full of mountains and forests, and there are very few places such as beaches, and landings are often carried out from the shore, and these places have local villagers and coastal defense posts, once discovered, the previous efforts will be lost.

Although the Hu people are at war with the Jin State, there are still hundreds of thousands of domestic prevention and control forces, and most of the Hu people's land is also a land of mountains and forests, many land boundaries have not been developed, and there are many no-man's lands, and the route planned by Liu Cheying's 50,000 soldiers is a no-man's land.

Their biggest enemies along the way will be creatures such as beasts and poisonous snakes, not the Hu people and the Jin army.

"We've been at sea for two days, why haven't we reached our destination yet! Could it be that the route is wrong! ”

Dressed in the soldiers' groaning of boredom, these 50,000 people were not idle, during the day they would fish, this is a natural dry food, and there is also a lot of salt in the fish.

"You don't have to worry about it, every boat is equipped with Sinan, and when we go ashore, we will also rely on Sinan to set off like Jin!"

"I don't know what kind of wind this king is smoking, he wants to send us to the Son of Heaven, I'm afraid that if we don't get there, we will be killed by the Hu people first!"

"Hugh wants to disturb the morale of the army! We are soldiers, we will do what is said above, if you can think of what the king thinks, you are not a soldier! ”

It's still night, and today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the moon is very round, and the whole coast can be clearly seen, especially the sea surface is very suitable for couples to date under the moonlight.

The soldiers on the ship began to miss their hometown when they saw the moon, and even many ships began to sing Chu Ge in chorus.

"I'm homesick, I guess we won't be able to go back this time!"

"Don't say that, I just got a daughter-in-law before I joined the army, and I have no regrets about staying in this life, if I can or return to Chudi, it will be better to set an example for my son at that time!"

"You are lucky, most of us who joined the army are single, there are a bunch of brothers in the family, if you don't join the army, you can only farm, and it is glorious to die on the battlefield."

"If you go back alive, help me spread a word to my family, saying that I am not a coward, and I am ashamed of the second elder of the family."

The soldiers on the ship have already thought about what will happen next, and now they have crossed the body of life and death, the founding of the Xia State promulgated a new law, Hanfeng imitated Shang Ying, and the overall Dafa was similar to the Qin State during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and people naturally wanted to join the army.

There are still millions of slaves in the east and west of the river, and they will get rid of slavery when they participate in the war and cultivate a certain harvest, especially all the rewards for participating in the war are recorded in military merits, and all the officials and lords are distributed by contributions, even if they die in battle, they can get a pension.

"It's here!"

The ships exploring in front blew their horns, all the ships dropped anchor one after another, and the scene of hundreds of piercing was very huge, fortunately this was a deserted place, except for Liu Cheying, the traverser, no one would be able to think of landing from here.

The boats landed first, and they took out their strong crossbows tied to the ropes and fired them at the cliff twenty meters high.

The vanguard team carried a large amount of rope on their backs, grabbed the rope and began to climb upwards.

"Brother, let's see who gets to the top first!"

"Good!"

The soldiers climbed very fast, and when they reached the top, they tied the trees with the ropes they had brought with them, and wanted to throw them down.

The whole coast is two or three hundred meters long, and every two meters there is a rope, half used to pull materials, half used to pull people, with mechanical principles of equipment, the soldiers did not take long to occupy the entire coast.

It took nearly 10 hours for 50,000 people to get ashore.

"Everybody's starting roll call!"

"Li Ergou!"

"Here!"

.....

In order to prevent someone from becoming a deserter, the first thing they did after going ashore was to roll call, although there was no punishment, but their families would know that the ancient people attached great importance to fame, and after 50,000 people came up, not a single deserter was produced.

"The whole army will rest here first, and we will start to go to the Jin Kingdom early tomorrow morning!"

A team of 50,000 people, every 200 people, set off towards the Jin Kingdom, and there was a Sinan among the 200 people, and they all looked at the map and moved forward slowly.

The capital of the Jin Kingdom was five hundred miles away from the coast, and they could not alarm the Hu people, so they could not march in a hurry, and the whole team could not travel a hundred miles a day.

Especially in places where the water is turbulent, they still have to build bridges, and it will take at least six or seven days for them to reach the hands of the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty.

At this time, in the Shangmoss Palace, the civil and military officials went to court for the first time, Han Feng sat in the center of the main hall, Liu Cheying on the left hand, and Yan Ran on the right.

The officials in the audience couldn't believe their eyes when they saw Liu Cheying, since the dignified national teacher is a woman, wouldn't this be laughed off by the world!

"Your Majesty! The minister has a proposal! ”

An official wearing a gray robe embroidered with a sparrow pattern on the robe walked out of the ranks of hundreds of officials with a jade plaque in his hand.

"Say!" Han Feng looked at his eyes and knew that he wanted to scold Liu Cheying, after all, it was the first time that a woman was ranked above the third prince and went to court.

"Your Majesty, Sage Cloud, women are difficult to raise for villains! Why did the king let a villain worship the third duke, and even named him a national teacher, I can't accept it! ”

"The minister thinks that women should teach their husbands and children and stay at home well, this is a man's business, let alone this state affair!"

Han Feng leaned on the dragon chair and said in a deep voice: "Aiqing, this is a bad statement, the saint you said doesn't like it very much, your statement is disrespectful to women, don't say anything else, just talk about talent, there are hundreds of officials here who have the talent of the top teacher!" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to argue with the national teacher, if the national teacher wins, the minister naturally has nothing to say, if it is lost, please let the national teacher abdicate and make way for Xian."

"Nonsense!" Han Feng scolded angrily: "You are nothing more than a white horse and not a horse, what contribution do you have to the national policy?" Do you know that this change of law is all handled by the national teacher, and the national law of my Great Xia is written by the national teacher! The national policies of my Great Xia are all dedicated by the national teacher! How can you argue with the national teacher! ”

The official was stunned and immediately speechless, after all, this is the king, and what Han Feng said is reasonable.

"Your Majesty, the ministers will not obey!"

"Surrender is not convinced!"

In an instant, all the officials put on their own posture, and they joined forces to force themselves, these officials love to receive gifts, and the new policy has a clause that is a crime to receive gifts, and the gift giver is guilty of the same crime, and even the family members of the officials cannot.

Even if it is a red and white ceremonial event, everyone can not give gifts more than a little value, even if your family is rich, the people of Daxia can not accept gifts willingly, officials receive gifts is a very serious matter, more than a certain amount of direct autumn beheading, the people's families can be dealt with lightly, often do not care.

This regulation directly affects the income of this group of ministers, who is willing to do this, they are not war generals, and some of their families support dozens or hundreds of servants, and it is difficult to support them by relying on their income.

Han Feng said coldly: "There are more maids in your Aiqing's family than the widow's palace, do you Aiqing think that your identity is more valuable than the king in this Great Xia?" I don't want to go out without eight sedan chairs, right? ”

After speaking, a few powerful ministers trembled, and this is what they are talking about.

A small half of the officials in Great Xia were Yan Ran's subordinates, and the other half were all officials from the east and west of the river.

"I beg the king to remove the national teacher!"

"I beg the king to remove the national teacher!"

This opposition is more and more, Han Feng is his own ancient why so many emperors love to kill ministers, if this is a faint monarch and tyrant, these ministers will not all be killed, even if it is a Ming monarch, he will not give up.

Take Li Shimin as an example, Wei Zheng couldn't scold him at every turn before his death, but what happened to Wei Zheng after he died? Three months after his death, the tombstones were all knocked down, and even if Li Shimin rebuilt Wei Zheng's tomb two years later, some grievances could not be dissipated.
