Chapter Seventy-Three: Secret Cast
If you have money, you will naturally think about having power, and having power can ensure the safety of money. However, this is just the idea of ordinary people, and it is the practice of most businessmen, but in certain periods, things can often go further: there are soldiers.
There is only one way to do this, and that is the county system, and the officials who are born in the examination will definitely be loyal to the king of Yue wholeheartedly, because they must obtain the military support of the king of Yue. And once the county system is implemented, why would Ou Qin sell himself? Ou Qin is willing to betray himself, why should the honorable soldiers and armor soldiers under him betray themselves?
When Lu Zhuozheng thought that the restoration of the country was just a deception, Xiong Jing said again: "If General Qu Qin can perform miraculous feats in the future, Bu Yu can reward him with the ownership of Wuyuan, and from then on, Bu Yu will no longer have an agreement with him; If Yue Jun can do miraculous deeds in the future, he can also reward Yue Jun with Yue Land, but yet," Xiong Jing emphasized, "Bu Yu has heard that the sale does not change the lease." The covenant made by the person who is not sealed has no right to change it, unless the person who has sealed it allows. Although the land is already a Yue land, they are already a Yue minister, if the Yue Jun violates the agreement when he gave it, he will send troops to fight. ”
"The minister knows." Lu Zhuo was shocked when he heard this, and understood that the essence of this kind of gift was to restore the country. It's just that it is no longer the Yue Kingdom of the past, but the Yue Kingdom that the king must keep his promises to the vassals, honorable scholars, armor soldiers, and common people.
"Alas!" Xiong Jing sighed. "If Yue Jun really wants to open up, he should open up the world with Bu Yu. Yuedi is only a corner of the Chu State, the Chu State is only a corner of the world, the world is only a corner of the Central Continent, and the Central Continent is only one of the six continents. ”
"Your Great King, Yue Jun said, this is the land of the ancestors, and I dare not lose it." Lu Zhuo and Yue Junkai often corresponded and contacted, and at this point, there was no need for him to cover it up.
"It's not a matter of calculation." Xiong Jing nodded. Those places south of Zhenze are indeed the old Yue land.
"Thank you to the king." In addition to Lu Zhuo, Ou Zhe and the others also thanked each other, and then stepped aside and stopped talking.
It was getting late, and Xiong Jing asked about other things when he went down the stairs. "If you rebuild a large-wing warship, how many can you build every month?"
"Yu Dawang, now there are more than ten shipyards such as Purple Mountain, Shaobi, Zhongli, Wudu, Haiyang, Guangling, Zhufang, Jinling, Chang'an, Jiuzi, Que'an, Tongwei, Caogang, Egang, etc., and more than 50 docks and slipways. The big wing is relatively simple, 4,000 man-days is enough, and you can go into the water in more than a month, but the wood is insufficient. ”
"Four thousand man-days?" Xiong Jing is familiar with the working hours, and the habit of building a house is to use working days. Thinking of the wood, he gritted his teeth and said: "If there is no wood, then the Zhengchao, Zhengyu, and Xiaoyu will be demolished, and the Taishe and Taimiao will be left." ”
"The King?!" Although there is a precedent for demolishing the palace, it is still a surprise to demolish the dynasty and the dormitory.
"If the kingdom does not exist, what good is the palace?" Xiong Jing sighed. "Also, the mansions of all counties and tribes will also be demolished."
"Oh. King Jing demolished the main bed and the dynasty?! "Qutai Palace, Zhao Zheng, who got the latest spy report, was a little surprised. He had heard that the King of Chu had demolished some palaces for the construction of sea boats, but he didn't expect that this demolition would actually be in the right place and the right dynasty.
As far as the Qin Palace is concerned, the main bed is Qutai Palace, and the Zhengchao is Zhangtai Palace. The former is the place where Zhao Zheng handles official business every day, and the latter is the place where he visits the court and meets with foreign envoys every day.
"Your Majesty, indeed." Huan Qi said, "King Jing heard that my Qin army would fight again, and he had no intention of fighting again. King Jing demolished the main bed and the dynasty, and the county also demolished the mansion and the county government. It is said that the Jing people wanted to move south to the land of Jiangdong, so they needed to build a boat. ”
"Great King, if King Jing really dismantles the main bed and the main dynasty, there is indeed a sign of moving south. However, the Jing people also have the possibility of building a large boat division, so our army should not be careful. "The work of Vachu is being carried out, which makes Wei Yi very proud. It's a pity that he is still a secretary and can't get involved in the intelligence system in charge of the national lieutenant.
"There are 800,000 soldiers in Chu, why are you afraid of having them?" Gong retorted. With such a large number of troops, only the Battle of Changping can be compared. The army of Chu is only more than 200,000, and the attack on Chu must be devastating.
"In the state of Chu, when one after another, so that it cannot breathe." Wei Yu said. Although Zhao Zheng agreed to attack Chu, he continued to attack Zhao under the persuasion of Gong Pi and others, and only returned to attack Chu after killing Zhao.
"The same is true for Zhao Guo." Gong unceremoniously retorted again. "Zhao and Jing are one in the south and one in the north, and our army cannot take care of both. The minister was worried that the king would give the two countries a respite in order to find a balance. ”
"You don't have to say anything about cutting down Jing and Zhao." The courtiers had different views, and Zhao Zheng didn't care, but the things determined by the court could not be changed, so Duke Bi was bowed by Zhao Zheng. Zhao Zheng asked Huan Qi again: "Can Jing people do anything else?" ”
"The Qi people seem to have promised the Jing people, so they will no longer be connected with me." Huan Qi reported again, this is the second major event involving the felling of wattles.
"Why?" Zhao Zheng's face was cold, and he asked urgently. "King Qi is not afraid of my Great Qinhu?"
"The minister......" King Qi is indeed not very bold, but unfortunately the specific reason Huan Qi does not know, he can only report some rumors: "The minister heard that the king of Qi wants to get the armor of the Jing State, but he doesn't know ...... about it"
"Jing State Armor?" Zhao Zheng looked at Huan Qi and then looked at Wei Yu, Gong Di and others, he remembered that Gong Gong said that the consequence of cutting Chu was likely to be that the Jing people would grant the art of armor and spear formation to other countries, but he didn't expect this kind of thing to happen before the army was opened.
"The minister asks the king not to take into account Wei and Han. An army of 500,000 took advantage of Wei to quickly attack Jingzhiyingdu. Wei Yu hurriedly spoke.
"Miao, how can the fifty armies be gathered in one place, once the Jing people cut off the grain route and the Wei people stand up, will they have to exhaust the whole army?" Zhao Shan disagreed with Wei Yi's opinion. Where the Qin army can attack from is very clear to both the enemy and us. Wei Yu is talking about the direction on the east side of the chasm, attacking from this direction is bound to cross the chasm, and pontoon bridges have been erected on the chasm, but if only the Qin army attacks from this direction on the east side of the chasm, once the pontoon bridge is cut off after penetrating into the Chu realm, the Wei people will stand by and watch, and the 500,000 army will be defeated due to lack of food. Such risks should be avoided as much as possible.
"The king, the minister thinks that the collection of 500,000 is greater than one place, and it is not possible." Huan Qi also spoke out against it.
"The king, the minister thinks that the cutting of wattles is only in the winter and spring, and the water is full in summer and autumn, and the felling is not good, so it can't be fast." Gong Gong said again.
"When the water is full in summer and autumn, it is also the time when the Jing people attack me." Wei Yi felt that it was becoming more and more difficult to discuss the war with these veterans, and he had to remind the Chu army once again that the Chu army would take the initiative to attack in the past few months.
"King Jing has dismantled the main bed and the dynasty, and quickly built a boat and moved south, how dare you cut me down?" Gong Gong said with a smile, and then he turned to Zhao Zheng, "The king, the iron official Sima Chang reported that the furnace has been completed, and the furnace can be opened on a certain day, please take a look at it at the right time." ”
"Oh. The furnace is ready? Great goodness! Zhao Zheng said happily.
The art of Ju Iron has been plaguing the Qin State for a long time, and after the craftsmen of the Yan State came, Shaofu finally began to refine Ju as well. It's just that the refining technique of the Yan State is not as good as that of the Chu State, and their refining method requires thirty refining, fifty refining, or even one hundred refining. Even the Hundred Refining Giant Sword is not as good as the Chu State Treasure Sword, and the cost is amazing, and the output is insufficient.
There is no similarity between the manufacture of bronze soldiers and giant soldiers, and the copper soldiers need to be sharpened after they are cast, and the copper soldiers are formed after they are sharpened. Jubing is different, Ju iron is forged and formed, and it must be forged after it is red. Although Shaofu is training forging craftsmen, tens of thousands of people can not learn the art of forging in a day. The final solution still comes from Jing Guo, that is, the technique of converter blowing.
"When is an auspicious day?" Zhao Zheng's joy was undisguised, he actually had a nightmare after the martial arts competition that day, dreaming that rows of Jing people were wearing huge armor, holding huge spears and rushing towards him, his leather armor was like Chu paper, and it was pierced when he poked.
"Your Majesty, tomorrow is an auspicious day." After the Yan people offered the giant iron, the king had ordered him to supervise the construction of the huge iron.
"Good. The widow will be at least the house tomorrow. Zhao Zheng excitedly took a few shots. He also said: "The matter of cutting down the thorns will be in accordance with the policy set by the national captain." The king of Qi did not want to ...... horizontally" He suddenly thought of Zhao Guo: "How is Zhao Guo?" ”
"The king, the king of Zhao has been killed, and the eldest son Zhao Qian has ascended the throne, with the Marquis of Chunping as the prime minister." Huan Qi said, "Our army is attacking Zhao, and the Zhao people have asked for help in Jing State, if our army is attacking Jing, Zhao people are happy to see it, and they will not save Jing." ”
"Tell King Zhao that Zhao is to save Yan." After the crown prince Zhao Qian was an advocate woman, he was not crowned and the king, the king of Qi was very bold, and Wei Han surrendered in every way, but the king of Jing did not obey Qin. Thinking that his opponent was getting weaker and weaker, Zhao Zheng suddenly burst out laughing.
"The king is happy today." After sleeping in Liuying Palace, Mi Qian saw that Zhao Zheng came here to share lunch with him, and his complexion was different from yesterday, and he couldn't help but ask more with a smile.
"If there is something pleasant, it will be pleasing to nature." Zhao Zheng also laughed. After he became in power, he was often busy until late at night, and his meals were simple, and he rarely went to the queen's bedroom to eat. After smiling, he looked at Qi Qian and asked seriously: "The queen really doesn't care about the widows?" ”
"The concubine is already a Qin person, and she will be buried in the ancestral mausoleum of the Qin State after her death, how can she care about the king cutting down Jing." Mi Qian's smile was a little stiff, she quickly turned around and took out a large piece of riveted chain mail, "The king, please turn around, the concubine wants to measure the width of the king's shoulders......"
Chain mail is a controlled item, but until it is riveted into a piece, it is just a thin roll of wire. Qi Qian also riveted iron armor in the courtyard of Jutie Mansion, and according to Xiong Jing's meaning, all women in Chu must make a piece of chain mail to give to their husbands before they get married. This royal decree was not carried out among the people, but it was carried out in the royal palace, and the princesses were riveting their chain mail in their spare time.
"What is this?" Zhao Zheng looked at the piece of chain mail in Qi Qian's hand and was very puzzled.
"This is ......" Qi Qian is just doing the queen's instinct, but many things make her think of Chu State. This is...... Armor. ”
"Why is Jing Guo's armor like this?" Zhao Zheng looked at the armor in Mi Qian's hand and was puzzled.
