Chapter 213: Xingshi asks for sin
A few days later, in the early morning, Xianyang ordered the government.
Liu Li basically didn't stay in Afang Palace these days, but lived here directly. Because the work of recruiting and dispatching the people was not very smooth, the Qin Dynasty's decrees were very strict, and as long as there was an order, the people generally did not resist.
So basically men of the right age have also become militiamen, but the problem is that Liu Li doesn't just want men. What he wants is every ounce of combat power in this Xianyang City, so women must also be recruited. Although this idea was supported by the Xianyang Order, it was resisted by many others.
The resistance from the top is easy to say, after all, the Xianyang Order is the most powerful. But the problem of resistance from the people is very big, and there is a man who is willing to let his wife and concubine go to the battlefield, so the public resentment is boiling quite serious, which actually directly threatens the stability of the new militia ranks.
Liu Li was racking his brains to find a way to solve this problem, and he looked at Youyou, who was sitting next to him: "How many people can you control, if you go all out." ”
"I'm going to evolve into a special form, all the summons have to be unlinked, and I'm going to have to consume an incredible amount of mana. The most important thing is that there are only a few hundred people at most, and they are still relatively low individuals. If there is no subjective resistance, I should be able to control a larger number of people. But that would require the hatching of a large number of nerve parasites, which is not cheap. And I had to stay in a special state, no movement, no attack, no defense. ”
Liu Li let out a long sigh, it seemed that it was impossible to solve this problem by relying on Youyou. I can only think of other ways, but the question is where is there any other way? Do you want to give up the forced recruitment of women? Their combat effectiveness is indeed minimal, but if Zhao Gao's troops can come back early, what he lacks the most is actually manpower.
The combat effectiveness of the Dragon Emperor Guards is very amazing, and if it can be combined with a large number of militias that can be sacrificed as cannon fodder, the possibility of successfully resisting the Fusu border soldiers will be greatly increased. You must know that Liu Li and the others can't interfere in that battle, because they can't risk letting the Sword Staff Legion know about their existence. So we have to prepare enough good material for Zhao Gao as much as possible, but how can we let these women be recruited without arousing too much public resentment?
Just when Liu Li was thinking hard, Lao Li and the spider came back from outside, and unlike Liu Li, they all had happy faces on their faces: "The buildings that need to be blasted have been marked, and the load-bearing positions of all buildings have been smeared with pheromones, which can already spread self-exploding insects. ”
The so-called life is actually just a release of skills to summon self-exploding insects. The woman didn't even raise her head: "If it's the agreed power, I don't need to prepare in advance at all, just drink some adenoline slurry when the time comes." However, these summoned self-detonators do not fly, so it may take time to get in place. ”
"It's not a problem, there's still some time. On the contrary, the recruitment of female soldiers gives me a headache, what do you think should I do? ”
Lao Li sat next to Youyou and said nothing, but the spider said: "If it really doesn't work, just report it to the adult, maybe he has a way." ”
"What can you do if your lord is far away in Zhao Gaoying's camp against Xianyang City?"
"Your Excellency is the Seal Titler, and the strength of your skills is unimaginable, so you can try it."
"Of course, the skills of the adults are all over the world, but at this time, they must all be used on how to speed up Zhao Gao's army, how can they be idle here. Even if he has it, I don't want it, if Zhao Gao can get it early, all the problems will be solved. ”
"That's right, adults probably lack skills, and it's up to us to do it."
Several people were about to continue the discussion, but suddenly Qi Shushu stopped talking, and after a few minutes, footsteps appeared in front of the door, and a Qin Dynasty official opened the door: "Everyone, Ying Gongzi summoned the immortal master to go to the mansion for a banquet, and discussed the matter of recruiting and transferring the people by the way." ”
Liu Li's eyebrows lowered: "Ying Gongzi personally summoned us?" Is Lord Xianyang Ling here? ”
"The lord is also here, it was after the lord reported on your recruitment of women to join the army that the prince sent the villain to invite you."
Everyone immediately understood that this was the coming of the Xingshi. For a Confucian aristocrat like Ying Gongzi, Liu Li's methods are undoubtedly too much. Several people immediately looked at each other, and then they could only get up and walk towards the child's mansion with helpless faces.
Ying Gongzi should be the nephew of the Dragon Emperor according to his generation, and the Qin Dynasty greatly weakened the power of the royal family, so he was originally a Taiping nobleman, but the arrival of the monarch changed everything. The special props made his intimacy with Ziying rise to a very good level, and then of course he was trying to seize power with Ziying.
Ziying, a black-bellied middle-aged uncle who is easy-going on the surface and vicious in his heart, is probably the most popular thing. However, seizing power is a big job, and it is definitely not possible to rely on yourself. So he also found a wave of helpers, including the current Xianyang Ling and this young man. After Ziying was fooled by the monarch to contact Fusu, all the big and small things in Xianyang City were handed over to these two, among which Ying Gongzi had a higher status because of his royal status.
Ying Gongzi's mansion is not as good as Afang Palace, but it is also extraordinary, and it should be a sky tower erected over the courtyard with Mojia technology, which has a bit of the taste of a fairy mansion. Although there are not many such technologies in Xianyang City, there are still a few, which can also be seen that the Mohists have a deep influence on the people.
When they entered the mansion gate, they immediately heard the sound of musical instruments coming from the back hall, which was obviously music for the sake of the banquet. They were led by the porter all the way to the inner sanctum, a large, unusually empty room, which was now brightly lit and filled with separate seats and tables, and was filled with sumptuous food and drink.
Liu Li didn't expect it to be such a big scene, a banquet scene for dozens of people. Could it be that this young man wants to criticize himself in front of everyone, then it seems that he is likely to have offended this young man. But it's not right, everyone around Ziying knows that the Dragon Emperor is newly mourned, according to the ancient system, it is strictly forbidden to drink and feast during this time, and it is okay to call over for a meal in private, this fanfare violates common sense. It wouldn't be to humiliate himself in public, Ying Gongzi didn't even ignore the rules, or did he deliberately do this to paralyze the magnates of other factions in the city.
Several passengers glanced at each other, knowing that today's scene was probably sad. They were led to the chairmanship by special people, and before the banquet began, everyone's eyes were focused on Liu Li. Of course, it was not the first time Liu Li had seen Ying Gongzi, it was a fair-skinned and tall beautiful man.
"All the immortal masters have worked hard, they have worked hard for many days, and they will drink a few more cups today." Ying Gongzi is worthy of the royal family, and the polite words are not too fluent.
And Xianyang Ling next to him got up in time and stretched out his hand to point out the appropriate position for a few people. As soon as Liu Li looked at the distribution of this location, he knew that he couldn't get over today. Because everyone sat with the guests, but Liu Li actually sat on a small high platform with Ying Gongzi, Xianyang Ling and the rest of the people.
This looked as if Liu Li had been treated very favorably, but he knew that this was to facilitate the interrogation of several powerful people immediately.
Once everyone was seated, the musicians resumed playing. This should mean that the banquet should be opened, Liu Limeng was happy, it seemed that he could still eat a few bites before being counted, but things were not as he thought. Just when everyone began to push the glass and change the lamp, Ying Gongzi suddenly raised the wine glass and the music stopped, and then he looked at Liu Li at the next table: "What happened to the immortal master's forced recruitment of people's daughters." ”
Is it so straightforward? Just plugged in without any cover, without any modification, without any protective measures! No, it's a chime in.
Fortunately, after receiving the notice to go to the banquet, Liu Li was thinking about how to deal with the current scene, and he almost opened his mouth and said: "Both men and women are the people of Great Qin, and seeing that the society is in danger, everyone has the responsibility to guard the real dragon." ”
"It's not enough to requisition men."
"When Great Qin was at its peak, it wasn't just men who were guarded by the true dragon."
Fighting back beautifully, Ying Gongzi was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he said: "How can a woman be too weak to defeat Zhao Gao's tiger and wolf disciples?" ”
"Except for the eldest prince's male soldiers, who can resist Zhao Gao? Could it be that because Zhao Gao arrived first, we have to surrender? ”
Once again, Ying Gongzi was blocked and didn't know what to say, Liu Li slowly got up from his seat, and actually bowed directly to Ying Gongzi: "Childe, I want it with all my heart, but the emperor will not fall into the hands of thieves." Everything I do is to protect the true dragon, and the sincerity of this heart can be identified! ”
"Enemy attack, Ruri! Passenger! It's a passenger! Enemy attack! ”
Hearing the voice of the spider seriously, Liu Li was stunned for at least a second, he couldn't figure out what was going on? What enemy attack? Where did the enemy attack come from? And what does it mean to be a passenger? Passengers launched an attack against here? Where are the other passengers here except for themselves?
When the above doubts appeared, the low table in front of Ying Gongzi was pushed away by an inexplicable force, and the handsome and tall Gongzi rose into the air, and the long sword in his hand took Liu Lixiang's head.
Liu Li instinctively raised his head, and the palm-wide eight-edged Qin Sword was already horizontal to his neck. Frankly speaking, Liu Li was very flustered at this time, he was not panicked because of the sharp blade that was about to cut his throat, but because of the reason why the blade attacked. is more for the sake of if Ying Gongzi is attacking him, then this banquet is not equivalent to a Hongmen banquet, what are his other teammates experiencing.
Liu Li knew that he should summon the Saucer Demon and transform into Susanoo. But he did something else, and that was to activate the Eye of Conspiracy. Suddenly, all time stood still, Liu Li clearly saw that his neck was only two palms away from the long sword, and then he adjusted his angle to look at the entire banquet hall.
The first thing I saw was that Youyou was tied into a zongzi by an inexplicable golden rope, and then Lao Li and the spider faced off against a flying enemy. Then he found that on the periphery of the entire banquet hall, a large number of heavily armed Qin soldiers were rushing in.
Then it was the Xianyang Ling who was taking out a token-like thing from his waist, and more importantly, a man in white who didn't know how to appear was throwing a flying knife at his back.
