Chapter 493: The Ambition of the Kings (Part II)

"We can all get the news, can't you get it? Maybe my father knew it as early as the beginning, and my father knew it but didn't stop it, so he must have his considerations, and if this king joins the king of Guangyang, I'm afraid that not only will he not get anything, but he may have to put himself in it, and you must know that what my father will hate is fratricide...... "Li Bingchang said meaningfully; "Don't do it to anyone, as if it never happened."

"Yes, I understand." Liang Yibury said; "Lord Wang, recently our spies in Guanzhong also found out a news, in addition to the 100,000 Qin army (Longxiang Army), His Royal Highness King Qin is also training government soldiers in Longxi and Guanzhong, and authorized King Yong to train government soldiers in Hanzhong Province; The three provinces of Longxi, Guanzhong, and Hanzhong have large populations, and there are no less than one million soldiers who can be trained. King Qin has many soldiers and generals, but he is the number one enemy of the prince vying for the position of the crown prince!"

"And what do you mean?"

"The humble position means that we must also step up the formation and training of government soldiers, and we must train them into elite soldiers."

Li Bingchang smiled and said: "It's easy to say, now all the expenses for the training of government soldiers are all paid by the local finance, Hedong Province has a small area of mountainous arable land, and the main source of finance is commercial tax, and the caravans that do business pass through here are basically those every year, and now the financial revenue of Hedong Province has entered a bottleneck period, and there is no money for you to let this king train the soldiers!" ”

"What do you mean, my lord?"

"First, build roads, as the saying goes, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads; Second, vigorously develop industry and commerce to increase the income of the people, and when the people become rich, they will naturally pay more taxes; Third, the elite government soldiers are arranged, and the so-called soldiers are noble and elite, but not too much......" Li Bingchang told Liang Yibury his thoughts one by one; Liang Yibury quickly understood the essence of it, what Li Bingchang has to do is to accumulate thick and thin, and first do a good job in infrastructure construction.

Guanzhong Province, Lantian Daying.

This is the main stronghold of the Xia army garrison in Guanzhong, the king of Qin Li Wu is here, after returning from Xingqing Mansion, Li Wu moved here, and threw his newly married princess to the Qin Wangfu located in Chang'an (Jingzhao Mansion), Li Wu's personality is very similar to Li Liangzuo, the father and son are simply a temper, which is also an important reason why Li Liangzuo likes Li Wu, as the governor of the three provinces, Li Wu is in charge of the military and political affairs of the three provinces, but Li Wu's character is tireless for political affairs, Therefore, Li Wu basically handed over all the political affairs to Wuzang Chenliang.

did not hide Chenliang, nor did he live up to Li Wu's trust, and took care of all political affairs in an orderly manner; In the big tent of the Chinese army in the blue sky camp, Wuzang Chenliang said to Li Wu: "Lord Wang, now the three provinces have trained nearly one million government soldiers, and basically all the men have undergone military training, but the training cost in the past few months has been huge, and the local finances are about to make ends meet. ”

"It's pretty good to be able to get to this point." Li Wu said with a smile; "In the future, it will be much easier, and it will be enough to train all the government soldiers in rotation every year."

"Lord, I don't understand my humble position, and now that there is no war, I am afraid that Your Majesty will be suspicious of such a large-scale military training!"

"Don't worry! Father won't. Li Wu said confidently; The reason why this king has such a large-scale training of government soldiers is actually for the purpose of my Xia army to enter the Central Plains in the future; Our army's attack on Guanzhong in the Central Plains will inevitably become the rear base of our army, and once the main army of the front line incurs losses, it can be replenished from the government soldiers, and by then these government soldiers have been trained for a long time and are much stronger than the recruits who have just enlisted. ”

"Lord Shengming; Lord Wang, I recently heard that His Royal Highness the King of Guangyang seems to have recruited troops privately. ”

"Don't ask too much about this, just pretend that you don't know anything......"

"Yes, I understand; There is a saying that the prince is humble and does not know whether to say it or not. ”

"If you have anything to say, just say it, what is the relationship between the two of us, you are still so sloppy."

"Lord, now the position of the crown prince has not been decided; Although the power of the prince is at the head of the kings, it is better to be careful, after all, the power of the prince comes from His Majesty; Among the kings, His Royal Highness the King of Jin is the biggest competitor of the prince, and he must be more careful with the king of Jin. ”

Although Li Wu has always been reluctant to face this problem, Li Wu can't escape, Li Wu is qualified to inherit the throne, but Li Bingchang is also qualified, who can get the crown prince, then it depends on who has the ability to do it, who can get anything in front of Li Liangzuo, obviously Li Wu now has the absolute upper hand, but Li Wu still needs to be careful, because as long as Li Liangzuo's words, Li Wu may lose all advantages.

"This king knows, the crown prince is bound to be won by this king......," Li Wu said with sharp eyes.

As the son of Li Liangzuo, the princes of the Great Xia Empire who did not want to be the heir of Li Liangzuo, Li Qing, the king of Guangyang, Li Hao, the king of Hengshan, Li Ke, the king of Changshan, and Li De, the king of Yong, all had such ambitions; Although the court of the Great Xia Empire seems to be calm now, it has actually been turbulent, all of which was caused by Li Liangzuo.

Xingqing Mansion, in the imperial study of the imperial palace.

Li Liangzuo asked Xiao Fuzi: "What happened after the news was spread, what was the movement?" ”

"Your Majesty, this is the report of the secret agents of the palace." Xiao Fuzi held a stack of concertos and handed them to Li Liangzuo and said.

"There are so many of them, I won't look at them one by one, just tell me what the attitude of these sons of mine and their officials is towards this matter."

"The kings of Qin, Jin, Yong, Hengshan, and Changshan basically pretend not to know." Xiaofuzi said to Li Liangzuo; "And a strict order."

"What about King Guangyang?"

"His Royal Highness the King of Guangyang is very calm, as if this matter has nothing to do with him."

"These little bunnies, it seems that none of them plan to report this to me!"

"Your Majesty, in fact, all the princes are a little afraid of you, so they can get the news, let alone Your Majesty! The princes are worried that they will be treated as fratricide by His Majesty. ”

"It seems that their ambitions are not small! During this period of time, they have all trained troops to expand their military strength. ”

"The princes have strengthened the training of the government soldiers."

"This is the end of this matter, don't let the news spread."

"Yes, the minion understands."

At this moment, a little eunuch hurriedly ran in and said, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Chu asks to see you." ”

"Brother Xuanhuang come in!"

After Li Xiaoren came in, the two of them sat down, and Li Liangzuo asked Li Xiaoren, "Brother Huang, is it something urgent to come to me so late?" ”

"But there is something urgent." Lee Hyo-in said; "Wechen received a secret report, saying that the King of Guangyang was training privately in the depths of Yanshan, Your Majesty's matter is very important, Wechen dare not hide it, how to deal with it and ask Your Majesty to decide."

The second one will be served, and there will be another one later......
