Great Qin!

This is a title that all Qin people are proud of.

In the repeated battles with the Xiqiang, Di and Eastern Central Plains, this small tribe of horses gradually became stronger, and Zuihou established a powerful dynasty that once unified the whole country.

Six kings, four seas one.

What kind of courage is this, unifying the whole country, unifying weights and measures, implementing the county system, and governing the country with Legalist doctrine, this Taoist initiative is still so brilliant after 2,000 years, it can be said that it is the Qin State that laid a solid foundation and has the long-term glory of the Han State in history.

People are the most precious thing at all times.

If the war horse is gone, it can be stored again, the saddle is secretly leaked, and it can be studied again, and if there are no people, then there is no hope for the Qin State, and in the same way, if the people's hearts are not aligned, the strength of the Qin State is just empty words. The desperate roar of Ma Jin and the others moved Li Yuan, and also made his hesitant heart firm.

Xiang Yu heard Li Yuan's mouth loosen, and his heart was relieved, Ma Jin and other prisoners died to him, just a group of useless wastes that were about to be squeezed out of surplus value, if a group of wastes could be exchanged for the war horses and saddles that the Chu army dreamed of, even if this transaction was worth a little loss.

With a common understanding, Li Yuan and Xiang Yu's next negotiations became much easier, neither of them could be regarded as masters of negotiation, and of course, they did not mean to be as calculating as Lu Jia, Xiang Bo and others.

After some straightforward bargaining, Li Yuan and Xiang Yu reached an agreement on the terms of exchanging a middle-aged war horse for twenty-five prisoners of appropriate age and a set of saddles for five prisoners.

Such a condition made Xiang Yu very satisfied, after four years of natural elimination, about 120,000 or 30,000 of the original 200,000 prisoners survived. According to the negotiated conditions, these prisoners can be exchanged for three or four thousand well-equipped elite cavalry, and with such a light cavalry, the combat strength of the Chu army can obviously be improved by several grades.

As for whether the captives will enhance the strength of the Qin State after they go back, Xiang Yu didn't care too much, these prisoners who are scarred and may not be able to see tomorrow after today, even if they can recover, they will need nearly a year to recuperate, and during this period of recuperation. The captives were purely expendable, and could not bring any riches.

In other words, after every drop of oil in the body was squeezed dry, the prisoner was like a walking corpse with empty food and straw for the Chu State, and he could throw this burden to the Qin State before killing them in the pit, no matter how he thought about it, he felt that his methods were clever enough.

"Li Xiaothief, sure enough, he was guessed by Xiangguo. It's really amorous and the most distressing, haha. After negotiating the basic framework of the deal, Xiang Yu generously ordered nearly 5,000 prisoners, including Ma Jin, to be handed over directly to Li Yuan, with only 5,000 people. As soon as it was handed over, the Chu army gained fame and reduced the grain supply for the next day.

In this secret transaction, Xiang Yu is the specific executor. And behind it, the person who formulated this clever strategy is none other than Xiang Guo Xiang Tuo.

This is the core figure in the Xiang family. After getting rid of the shackles of Fan Zeng, Kuaiche and others, he became more and more apparent to be no less capable of governing than Xiao He.

――。

Everyone's values are different.

Xiang Yu's idea of putting things like horses and saddles first, and ignoring the lives of his captives, was cruel and bloody, and the young Chu pawn who followed him was shocked and shaken by his loyalty and friendship.

If people do not do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed.

As long as it can bring benefits to yourself, no matter what you do, you can do it. When people's moral bottom line was broken, Xiang Yu's actions were like releasing a terrifying demon, and while the Chu army was improving its combat effectiveness, it also lost the most fundamental thing of human nature in killing and poking again and again.

Seeing a team of ragged and scarred prisoners, the softest string in Li Yuan's heart was silently plucked, and when Ma Jin, a man who almost died, approached, Li Yuan jumped down from his sweaty horse and slapped Ma Jin heavily on the shoulder.

"Report, Captain Ma Jin of the 6th Team of the 34th Formation of the Dingbian Army requests to return to the team." Ma Jin's blood-stained cheeks tugged, and then gave Li Yuan a somewhat rusty military salute.

"You were once a captain in the Dingbian Army?" Li Yuan said in surprise.

No wonder Ma Jin had such a calm and calm performance at the moment of life and death, this Dingbian army belonged to a strong force in the former Mengtian Northern Army, and belonged to the Qin army general Shijian, but unfortunately, in the decisive battle between Julu and the Chu army, Shijian broke through the siege and died of self-immolation. As soon as the main general died, all units of the Dingbian Army had to fight separately, and Ma Jin was probably captured by the Chu army in that battle.

"The last general is ashamed that he failed to follow the old general and died on the battlefield, so that he was humiliated like this, if he hadn't thought that he would one day be able to avenge the general, Ma Jin would have not wanted to live for a long time." Ma Jin burst into tears, he was still a tough guy just now, but facing Li Yuan at this moment, the defense line in his heart collapsed suddenly.

"Da Qin boy, you should live by standing in life, and you must die standing in death, what are you crying and crying, Ma Jin, now I order: Take your team and go!" Li Yuan said in a deep voice. As he said this, his eyes also turned red, and the resentment in his heart gradually dissipated with the rescue of Ma Jin and other prisoners.

When Li Yuan returned to the camp with many prisoners, Cao Xin, who thought it was the Chu army, was surprised, and he never thought that Li Yuan would bring back nearly 5,000 prisoners back and forth.

"Cao Xin, let the baggage soldiers immediately make a fire to make food, so that the brothers are full, and in addition, send a letter to Jiang Yu in the Tiger Prison Pass, and ask him to send five thousand sets of armor over." Li Yuan commanded.

From the hour to the early morning.

The Qin army camp was busy, and the settlement of the 5,000 prisoners was a big project, and Li Yuan Jihua escorted these frail and sick prisoners to the territory of Qin in phases and batches, where Ma Jin and the others would undergo a rigorous and meticulous examination and physical examination to confirm their identities, determine whether they were healthy, and whether they needed the next step of restorative treatment.

"Brothers, our hard days are coming to an end." When the steaming corn gruel is held in a clay bowl in the hand. Ma Jin choked in a low voice.

The captives took one bite after another, cherishing every bit of paste on the edge of the bowl, and then, the hot flow of hot porridge went from the mouth of the throat to the stomach, and suddenly it was like a warm current moistening the dry land, making people's limbs and bones seem to be injected with kinetic energy.

After a busy night.

On the second day, Li Yuan and Xiang Yu did not participate in the high-platform negotiations, and they participated in Lu Jia and Xiang Bo respectively. This made a group of celebrities and gentlemen feel sincerely admired for his "professionalism".

After a few days of stalemate, Li Yuan and Xiang Yu finally reached an agreement on the details of the phased exchange, and then, Xiang Yu, who couldn't wait, did not wait for Xiang Bo to come back, so he led Xiang Ying and other cronies to Pengcheng to turn around.

The reason why Xiang Yu was in a hurry to return was to speed up the speed of collecting the prisoners, and in the past, he disposed of the prisoners of the Qin army at will like a straw dog. Now it has become a trading item that can be exchanged for good things, so that one more prisoner will have an additional ration of war horses and saddles, and Xiang Yu, who is bent on forming a strong cavalry army, naturally refuses to let the prisoner die in vain.

Li Yuan followed closely and returned to the Tiger Prison Pass. There, after thinking about it, he sent a handwritten letter to Wang Li and Luo Jia of Jiuyuan and Longxi counties.

In the letter, Li Yuan gave a death order to the two border commanders. When the first horses arrived, they had to be all geldings, and not a single mare or uncastrated stallion could penetrate them.

Horse breeding. The Qin people were the ancestors, and Li Yuan only mentioned it slightly, and those experts in raising horses immediately understood his intentions.

The mounts of the general cavalry combat are mainly geldings, which are mainly geldings with docile temperament, and there will be no estrus and irritation period of uncastrated horses, but this kind of stallion after castration also has a fatal weakness, that is, it cannot reproduce, in this way, even if Xiang Yu gets the horse through exchange, it is only a one-time consumable, once it suffers losses on the battlefield, it is impossible for the Chu army to cultivate offspring through mating.

Li Yuan's small action, Xiang Yu still didn't know anything.

Even if he knew, he probably wouldn't be able to make a rebuttal suggestion, because the irritable stallion was hardly attractive to the Chu army, who was eager to prove his strength.

The farce on the stage of the Chenggao Huimeng lasted until November, under the threat of the cold snap in the north, the celebrities who fought for red faces every day, and then hooked their shoulders and drank together, finally dispersed reluctantly, and this time, the publicly-funded alliance gave them a kind of cheerfulness to raise their eyebrows.

Li Yuan did not return to Zhaodi, Ma Jin and other first batch of prisoners were placed in Sanchuan County on the spot due to physical reasons, I believe that with Jiang Yu taking care of them, these prisoners will soon be able to regain their confidence, and next, they will face a completely different hometown environment, completely different attitudes towards their relatives.

This is the hardship of life.

No matter who it is, you must face it silently and bear him.

When his health improved slightly, Ma Jin began to fidget, he missed his wife and daughter who were far away in Guanzhong, and when he met with Li Yuan, Ma Jin did not talk about his family situation, and Li Yuan did not ask about it, but in fact, Ma Jin's wife was the bride of Han Si who died in Wugong Mountain.

Life is so dramatic.

When you close a window, you open a door elsewhere.

After Li Yuan dealt with the secret agreement with the Chu State, his car drove all the way west, turning back to Guanzhong, and it had been half a year since he knew that Ying Yushu was happy, as a man, when a woman needed it most, it was an unforgivable act to not be by his side.

The sky is big, and the child is the biggest.

After five years of hard work, Li Yuan finally had his own life extension, when Ying Yushu held up the big belly that had been pregnant, and asked Li Yuan to listen to the strong heartbeat from the stomach, Li Yuan, who was about to become a father, was full of joy, and he could hardly restrain himself from dancing.
