Bai Hui put on a big banquet to wash the dust for the Empress Dowager Xuan.

At the banquet, Empress Dowager Xuan said: "The idle people will retreat, and the younger brother and Wang Er, as well as the brothers Bai Qi and Bai Hui will stay." ”

After everyone went out, Empress Dowager Xuan said, "Bai Hui, you are a little too bold." ”

"Your ......!" Bai Hui scratched his head: "Queen Mother, the minister doesn't seem to have done anything bad recently." ”

Empress Dowager Xuan was happy and patted the table lightly: "Do you know how much grain is still in the Liyang Warehouse and how much gold is still in the Xianyang Warehouse?" ”

Bai Hui muttered quietly: What do you have to do with me.

But he can't say that: "Queen Mother, it is precisely because of poverty that she has to fight." ”

Bai Hui said this, and the room fell down.

Since ancient times, war has been a matter of labor and money, and I have never heard of war to get rich.

Empress Dowager Xuan's face turned cold: "You have attacked Wei and Han, and you will prepare to attack Qi again, Yan and Zhao have made great efforts to enthrone the king, so if you attack Chu again, you will feel at ease if you can fight all the countries that can be fought again, don't you know that the ink on the covenant between Chu and Qin has not yet dried up!" ”

Bai Hui changed from kneeling to sitting, he heard that the Empress Dowager Xuan just didn't want to attack Chu.

"Seven cities, seven cities at most. Take back the city that ceded the land back then, and give Zhou Tianzi the benefits of the two cities, and the matter will be over. ”

Wei Ran immediately jumped out to speak for Bai Hui: "Sister, what Bai Hui said is not wrong, when Qi, Wei, and Han joined forces to attack Qin, they almost broke through Hangu Pass, and Chu was also an accomplice in sending grain and funding behind their backs. After ceding the land and suing for peace, Qin swore revenge on hundreds of people, please give their brothers a chance. ”

Bai Qi was more direct, walked up to the Empress Dowager Xuan and slammed his head on the ground.

At the beginning, when Bai Qi left the Qin-Chu border camp, he also grabbed a handful of soil, and he was also one of the Qin generals who swore an oath.

At this time, Bai Hui had the heart to attack, and he fully supported it.

"It's the opposite, it's the opposite, do you still have me, the queen mother, in your eyes?"

"Mother, the heart of a soldier can't be cold." King Qin also stood up in support.

Empress Dowager Xuan sighed: "At this time, I heard that Bai Qi and Bai Hui and your two brothers trained a group of elites, and let the palace take a look and make a decision." But, even if I promise you, seven cities. One more knighthood reduction, I see how many titles your brother has enough to reduce. ”

Avenge.

King Qin also thought of revenge, and at this time, the young man was indeed like a knife in his heart about cutting land and seeking peace.

Right now, Wei and Han are all on their knees, and the next thing is for the six countries to attack together.

If you clean up Chu again, this tone will be flat.

Bai Hui immediately got up: "Rong Chen go and arrange it." ”

"No, if half a messenger goes to give notice in advance, he will demote you to a first-class lord and detain three hundred households." Empress Dowager Xuan wants to see the most real side, not arranged in advance.

"Wang'er! Tie his mouth. Empress Dowager Xuan commanded, and King Qin pulled out a silk handkerchief with a smile and symbolically tied it to Bai Hui's mouth.

From now on, without Empress Dowager Xuan's permission, Bai Hui is not allowed to speak.

Empress Dowager Xuan asked Bai Qi: "Bai Qi, where is your brother's department training?" ”

Empress Dowager Xuan knew that Bai Qi was a real person, and she would never be like Bai Hui who was full of truth but had no practicality.

It is Bai Hui who can convince Empress Dowager Xuan, and he can not tell lies but still fool people, this ability is definitely above Zhang Yi. So Empress Dowager Xuan asked King Qin to tie Bai Hui's mouth with her own hands.

If a servant is allowed to do it, this is the punishment.

But King Qin took matters into his own hands, and this is glory.

Bai Qi straightened up at this time: "Back to the Queen Mother's words." There were three training camps, two at the mouth of the river and one in the north of Xincheng, where the main force of the Qin army was stationed in Yiyang and Yichuan. ”

"Well, go to the north of Xincheng, and then go to Dahekou."

Bai Qi said that the big estuary, later generations also have a similar name, that is, when the Yellow River is about to reach Luoyang, the river channel widens, and to the south and north there are forks like a big lake, the big estuary is a bifurcation area that is 30 miles away from the main road of the Yellow River, and a few miles wide like a big tree.

In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, the Empress Dowager Xuan ordered to set off.

As soon as he left Luoyi, he walked less than ten miles, and the convoy of the Empress Dowager Xuan was blocked.

It's not that someone is deliberately blocking the road, but the road is like ants moving, and countless horse-drawn carriages are slowly pouring in the direction of the new city.

"Change horses!" Empress Dowager Xuan gave an order, and immediately asked the maid to help her change into her fancy clothes and put on riding clothes.

Horse-drawn carts, ox carts, man-powered tablets, and wheelbarrows, which have been successfully studied by the craftsmen of the Baihui organization. Like a torrent converges towards the new city.

Empress Dowager Xuan ordered to find the source of this convoy.

At noon, Empress Dowager Xuan was riding a horse and standing on a high ground, and the whole person was already stunned.

Don't say it's him, even King Qin and Wei Ran were shocked.

It was a mountain, a stone mountain, and a natural cave guarded by thousands of elite Qin soldiers, and then truckloads of grain were carried into the cave by thousands of people.

Empress Dowager Xuan silently calculated in her heart that the length of this convoy alone could fill twice the Liyang warehouse.

"There are officials in charge here."

Bai Qi took a step forward: "The minister knows that the chief manager here is the former Yiyang County Ling Zuoping who was transferred from Yiyang by his younger brother. ”

"Do you know how much grain there is?"

Bai Qi replied: "The minister knows that this is the military rations for the winter. ”

Zuo Ping quickly trotted over, the prince, the Empress Dowager Xuan, the state minister, the state captain, and Bai Hui came here in person, he didn't dare to have the slightest slack, and came here at a trot.

"Zuo Ping, how much grain is here?"

"Minister, I only know that as of last night's statistics, today's warehousing has not yet been recorded."

Empress Dowager Xuan nodded, she thought that Zuo Ping's answer was not wrong, and motioned for Zuo Ping to report the number.

"Queen Mother, there are 38,000 tuns of yellow rice!"

Tun is not the counting unit of the Qin army, Bai Hui is talking about tons, but Zuo Ping people understand it as tun. At this time, the understanding of the Qin State was to wrap up and surround it. Therefore, Zuo Ping people understand that Bai Hui means a bunch.

Zuo Ping continued to report: "There are 121,500 tuns of millet, 49,800 tuns of wheat, 188,000 tuns of soybeans (soybeans), 17,000 tuns of rice, and ...... of millet." Zuo Ping stopped, which made him proud, and took a deep breath: "Queen Mother, Your Majesty, I just passed 200,000 tun last night. ”

Why is Zuo Ping proud, because millet is sorghum, he assisted Bai Hui to plant sorghum in Hexi, Beiqu and other places, nearly one million acres of sorghum were all transported here, not counted, but also robbed all of the Hedong of Wei State.

Only by subsidizing peasant households with millet and rice can we have these 200,000 tuns of sorghum.

Empress Dowager Xuan didn't understand what Tun meant, and she thought that it should be no smaller than Shi, and this number made her very pleased.

Wei Ran whispered in the ear of Empress Dowager Xuan at this time.

"Sister, Bai Hui calculates here, twenty stones are one tun, and one tun means a bunch."
