Chapter 352: Unification of the Two Qins (4)
"The king, as a minister, it is his duty to share the worries for the king, if you want the minister to lead the troops, the minister can set off at any time, but the army has not moved the grain and grass first, but I don't know the current military resources, the grain and grass are heavy, is Fan Xiang ready there?"
Bai Qi didn't dare to refuse directly this time, but changed the angle to push Fan Sui to the front, in his opinion, preparing these necessary things is also a big project, there are not a few months that cannot be completed, if it is delayed until the winter season, it will be better, because as long as people with a little common sense know that the loss of troops in winter is several times that of spring and summer, the account will be calculated, and no one will do anything that outweighs the loss.

But Bai Qi still underestimated Ying Zheng's determination, only to see Ying Zheng turn a blind eye to the difficulties that Bai Qi said, and when he heard Bai Qi say that he could send troops, he couldn't help but smile and said: "You don't have to worry about heavy things, I will order you to be the chief general of the crusade army now, and send troops in a month!" Zhao Gao! ”
"The slave is here!"
"Pass on Fan Sui, Lone ordered him to raise food and drink for the 400,000 army for five months in a month, no matter what means he uses, if he can do it, he will still be the prime minister of Great Qin, if he can't do it, Lone will raid his home and put his entire clan into a slave camp to replenish military funds!"
"Slave and maid command!"
Montaigne couldn't stand it anymore, he stepped forward to stop Zhao Gao, who was about to go out to pass his life, and turned back to Yingzheng and said: "King, such a reckless military force will definitely hurt the vitality of the people, the people are the foundation of the country, and hurting the people and pursuing profits is the way to sacrifice the original and chase the end, the king must not be like this!" ”
"Humph! Pedantic! ”
Ying Zheng glanced at Montaigne with disdain, and said coldly: "The battle with Hou Qin is the last battle to unify the Central Plains, and the injury to the people is only a short-term pain, as long as Yingguang is destroyed, the entire Central Plains will be my Great Qin!" At that time, the rich South can completely make up for the wounds of the people, and it is a big deal to exempt them from paying taxes for a few years. Montaigne, you are the general of my Great Qin, and I don't want you to make biased decisions because of your personal feelings! In this battle with Hou Qin, you Montessori family should not participate! ”
Montaigne was choked by Ying Zheng's words, knowing that Ying Zheng would not listen to him at all, Montaigne reluctantly arched his hand and retreated.
Zhao Gao secretly glanced at Yingzheng, and seeing that there was no other reaction, he hurriedly ran out and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to pass on his orders.
The king ordered, and the people of Qin and even some princes and nobles were completely defeated. Gathering 400,000 people in a month for five months is not as simple as counting per capitation, but also includes natural attrition, the attrition on the road when the people are transporting, and the attrition of delaying on the road on a cloudy day and raining.
Fan Sui completely lost his friendly side, for the sake of his own interests, he couldn't take care of a lot, his subordinates were sent out by him, and he even seconded a group of people from the city defense army to deal with those big households with some foundations!
"Lord Wang! The king's order is death, and it's not a good way for you to stop here, these soldiers are rough, and they will bump you in a while, but it's not good. ”
The white-haired Lord Wang was originally an important member in charge of the promotion of officials, and whoever saw it on weekdays could not respectfully shout Lord Wang, but today, a small official with a big fart dared to break into the house with soldiers, and the door with a few guards just stepped forward to block it, and was directly thrown aside and beaten, and when Lord Wang arrived, the guard was strong and strong, and he could hum twice, but the door had already died.
"You guys! Do you still have a royal law? When the morning comes, I will tell you a good story in front of the king! I'm standing right here! I'll see who dares to go over! ”
The little official was not annoyed, he still had a smiling expression on his face, but there was no patience in his eyes.
"Lord Wang, we are acting on the orders of the king, if Lord Wang is still obsessed, then don't blame me for being offended!"
In recent days, these little officials with the officers and soldiers of the city guards, so that they have been addicted to the fox and fake the tiger, this Lord Wang always looks high on weekdays, no one dares to offend him, but today is not as good as before, with the king's order to protect themselves, the princes and nobles These small officials dare to clean up, just an official, these little officials are not in their eyes.
"Set Lord Wang away, be careful not to get hurt, and the rest of the people will wait to go in and move the grain, and if there is anything valuable, they will also be collected!"
The little official pulled his face, no longer ignoring the angry roar of Lord Wang, his soldiers rushed up, hula la rushed into the house, these days they have experience in disguised copying, they have hidden a lot of valuable small belongings in private, for this kind of fat difference, they are only afraid of less and not afraid of more.
The officials are still like this, not to mention the ordinary people, after the army is like locusts crossing the border, all valuable objects are looted, and the four walls of the family can no longer describe their miserable situation, anyway, they are not too far from the cannibalism of Yizi, just in the past few days, hanging and throwing into the river abounds, and the corpses picked up by the city defense army from the moat every day have been piled up in mass graves.
In just one month, the originally rich Xianyang became a ghost town, the officials barely survived, and the people were displaced, and Fan Sui was the most relaxed among these people, because he miraculously made up enough of the army.
Bai Qi had no choice but to re-lead the troops, but the soldiers were not yet ready, and countless riots suddenly broke out in various parts of the Qin State, among which in addition to the common people, there was no lack of regular troops of the Qin army, those Qin soldiers were more or less connected with Xianyang, Fan Sui's led raid action made the families of these Qin soldiers completely dead, and the Qin soldiers finally became angry after getting the news, and the wave of resistance swept across the Qin land like a hurricane, and countless riots bloomed everywhere, and they were completely connected with a point!
Bai Qi's army was forced to fight when the troops were not evenly matched, but not against the Later Qin, but against the riots in various places.
"King, the Bai Qi army has pacified several rebels, but as soon as the army left, the rebels revived, killing officials and standing on their own, General Bai was tired of running for his life, and he was already tired.
Fan Sui trembled and said: "These ministers are powerless to judge, and they ask the king to adjudicate ......"
"Humph......"
Ying Zheng snorted coldly, and the ministers below fell to their knees, only Montaigne and other military departments were still standing there silently.
Ying Zheng glanced at Montaigne, and the dissatisfaction with the Montaigne clan in his heart was even worse. (To be continued.) )
