Chapter Eighty-Five: The Human Heart

Chen Cheng felt that he had miscalculated a lot, Ma Wentao actually said that the big wild boar was too powerful, and the wild wolf couldn't beat Yunyun. www.biquge.info Although what he said was right, how could he continue to answer the conversation?

But it doesn't matter, the overlord never relied on words to conquer others. It is the most powerful force that can decide everything. No matter what era, no matter what place it is, force is the core of all rules. As long as you have strong force, you will naturally be able to suppress all voices of resistance.

But now is not the time to silence dissenting voices by force. For those Han soldiers, they had to use other means to gather their minds, such as brainwashing...... Ahh

So, what else is the easiest thing to win hearts and minds without the threat of violence? Money? Beauty?

In this era when democracy and freedom are not emphasized at all, the most popular thing is, of course, land.

"Follow me and arrive in Liaoyang, where each of you can get at least thirty acres of Yongye Field!" This is the promise given by Chen Cheng.

"Forehead ......", Ma Wentao and Chen Zhiwei looked at each other again, very excited by the pie drawn. If there really is 30 acres of Yongye field, it is worth it to have some dangers. Moreover, Liaoyang is still in the rear, and the Jurchens are still far away.

The two of them folded their fists and retreated, and went down to consult with the soldiers. Half a day later, Chen Cheng gathered all the acquaintances and loudly announced what he had said before. As long as they arrived in Liaoyang, no one, including those slave warriors, could get at least thirty acres of Yongye land.

After hearing the news, everyone cheered, and the sluggish morale was boosted.

"Master, do you have a lot of land in Liaoyang, can you give everyone a piece of land?" Zhan Beiye had been messing around on the rivers and lakes for a while, and he had seen a lot of things pretending to be ghosts, so he quietly ran over and asked, "It can't be to deceive those people, right?" ”

"You're half right. I don't have any land in Liaoyang, but I didn't deceive them. ”

"Ahh Zhan Beiye was shocked, looked left and right, and then said: "Master, can this kind of thing be used to deceive people?" How happy they are now, how angry they will be when they find out that they have been deceived. This.... It's playing with fire! ”

"Hmph," Chen Cheng sneered, "Who said I lied to them?" If you don't have a field, can't you grab it? ”

"This ......," Zhan Beiye said with a bitter face, "I'm afraid it's not that easy." The million-strong army of the Liao State is not vegetarian. Master, even if you are invincible, you can't beat so many people, this is really not a good idea. ”

Good idea, every bad idea will feel like a good idea before it goes bad. But Chen Cheng didn't think his idea was a bad idea. Even if you get away with it in the end, it's a big deal to leave, are you still afraid that you won't be able to run away? But it was a last resort, and he didn't think he was going to get away with it.

"Hmph, do you know the current trend of the world?" Chen Cheng asked, "Do you know the changes in the victory and defeat of the strong and the weak?" Do you know that the Liao State is now rushing towards the road of collapse? ”

Zhan Beiye stammered, speechless. How did he know this, if he really knew, he wouldn't be like a lost dog.

Wuhua didn't know when he arrived, but he smiled and said, "I know a little bit about this." ”

"Oh, you know?"

"Well," Wuhua nodded with a smile and said, "After a series of defeats, the Liao people wanted to solve the threat of the Jurchens in one fell swoop, so they sent 700,000 troops and fought a decisive battle with the Jurchens. ”

"And then?" Zhan Beiye shouted: "So many people, one person and one mouthful of spit, can drown the Jurchens, right?" ”

"Hmph," Chen Cheng sneered, "When is there a war when there are more people, it must be won?" The soldiers are not expensive, and the speed is not expensive. You go on without flowers. ”

"Yes, the Liao army's 700,000 troops collapsed at the touch of a button, with countless casualties, and they have been pressed and beaten by the Jurchens ever since."

Zhan Beiye only felt his heart pounding, as if something was about to jump out of it. When he used to fight in the Black Light Gate, the two sides were only a few hundred people fighting at most, where did this kind of 700,000 people sound emotional?

He didn't know what he wanted to do, but there was a fire burning in his heart. There are few people who are not thrilled by this feeling of being involved in history. He is a man with ambitions, pursuits, and dreams, and with such a big scene in front of him, he wants to do something!

But..... Could something like that really happen?

"Of course," Chen Cheng said, "The Liao State has existed for two or three hundred years, and it should be time to change the dynasty and make the new dynasty strong." At such a moment, in such a great era of historical changes, can we stand idly by and watch without doing something big that will go down in history? ”

Zhan Beiye felt dizzy, he had been convinced. It wasn't until he returned to the back of the team that he was blown by the cold wind for a long time before he came to his senses, what does this have to do with himself? There is no positive answer at all!

"Donor, what kind of era do you want to establish?" Wuhua rode on the horse and said lightly: "Do you really want to be the emperor?" ”

"What's so bad about being an emperor?" Chen Cheng smiled: "If you want, you can also try." ”

"I don't have that thought," Wuhua shook her head and said, "Even if you become an emperor, you don't necessarily feel happy." ”

This statement is very correct, Chen Cheng agrees with it, but if you are not the emperor, will you feel happy?

"Wuhua, you just have to follow me. You don't have to think about anything else! ”

Liaoyang was called Xiangping and Liaodong City in ancient times, before the Spring and Autumn Period, it was the place where the Chinese ancestors (mainly the Donghu people) and the Yin Shang immigrants lived, the Donghu people were brave and fierce, good at riding and shooting, and they entered the slave society after a long period of primitive clan life.

Liaoyang in the Zhou Dynasty belonged to Youzhou. In the fourth year of King Wu of Zhou (1066 B.C.), King Wu Keshang "released the prisoner of Jizi and went to North Korea (that is, the Liaoyang region today), because he was sealed". Jizi "taught the people to be courteous, silkworm, and weaving", which brought the culture of the Central Plains and advanced production technology, and promoted the development of production.

In the 28th to 33rd year of King Yan Zhao (about 284 BC to 279 BC), Yan sent the general Qin Kai to attack Donghu, so that "Donghu is more than 1,000 li", and then attacked Ji Korea, "take 2,000 li of land", and then set up Liaodong County in the Liaohe River Valley, and at the same time set up Xiangping County, and the county and county were all in Xiangping City.

In the twenty-ninth year of Yan Wangxi (226 B.C.), Qin Wangzheng raised troops to attack Yan in order to avenge the assassination of Jing Ke, the prince of Yan, and the Qin army captured the capital of Yan (now Beijing), "Prince Dan hid in Yanshui" (now Taizi River). King Yan listened to the plan of Wang Jia of Zhao Dynasty, killed the crown prince Dan, and offered his head to the king of Qin in order to dismiss the army, but the king of Qin ignored it and continued to march into Liaodong. Five years later (222 BC), the state of Yan was finally annexed by Qin. In the twenty-sixth year of Qin Shi Huang (221 BC), the country was divided into 36 counties, and Liaodong County still followed the Yanguo county system, and the county capital was located in Xiangping County.
