Chapter Ninety-One: The people of my Great Qin are not high or low
King Zhao's orders disrupted Zhao Kuo's plans and forced him to speed up his attack.
Fortunately, God was on Zhao Kuo's side, and the heavy snow only lasted for half a day before stopping, and although the road was a little muddy, it was still able to march.
The next day, the Han and Wei coalition troops were divided into two routes, one with Wei Wuji as the main general, commanding 100,000 Wei troops to attack the shore gate on the south bank of Fenshui. All the way, with Storm Kite as the main general, he commanded 100,000 Korean troops to attack Pusaka on the east bank of the river.
Zhao Kuo led the rest of his soldiers to attack the nearby small cities, and in one day, several cities were taken down.
At the same time, Zhao Kuoqiang ordered Zhao Jun to rush to Anyi within two days. forced Li Mu, Jia Yan, Feng Ting and others to take turns using the Wind Array to hurry.
On the other side, Bai Qizheng led the Qin army to retreat from Hedong to Hexi, and he didn't dare to delay for a moment, he knew that he couldn't hide Le Yi and Lian Po for long when he hung sheep and beat drums in Yicheng, he had to rush to Hexi before the arrival of the Zhao army, otherwise with the current strength in Hexi, he would definitely not be able to stop the three families of Han, Zhao and Wei from joining forces.
……
"What's the matter, aren't you already spreading rumors in Handan City? Why is Zhao Kuo still attacking? "There was an angry roar of Qin Wangji from inside the Great Hall of the Qin Kingdom.
"The king is angry, maybe King Zhao's order has not yet reached the Zhao army, it is better to wait for two more days." Fan Ju wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and bowed his head and said.
He was also a little strange in his heart, calculating the time, the Zhao army should be ready to withdraw now, how could he still attack?
Could it be that Zhao Kuo disobeyed the king's order?
"Two days! Two days! How many days have passed now! Wait any longer, the three Jin Dynasty will all hit Xianyang. Qin Wangji's chest fell together, and the anger in his heart burned.
"Great King, the minister suspects that Zhao Kuo may have chosen to disobey the king's order......" Fan Ju said hesitantly, he was not sure.
"My Qin State has a grudge against him Zhao Kuo? Would you rather disobey the king's order than attack? What's in it for him? Qin Wangji was a little unconvinced, "Let's talk about it, what now?" ”
"Don't worry, the king will definitely be able to stop the three jins." Fan Ju leaned over and said.
"Where is Wu Anjun now?" King Qin asked in a deep voice.
"The intelligence says that Wu Anjun is crossing the river with a large army, and Wang Yi has already taken the Iron Eagle Ruishi, the Black Armor Army, and 50,000 vanguard troops to the south, and he will be able to reach the front line of Yuanli and Wangcheng tomorrow." Fan Ju said.
"How many more strong men can be recruited in the country?" Qin Wangji clenched his fists.
"King, there really can't be any more conscription in the country, if there is another conscription, even if this battle is won, my Qin State will be greatly damaged, and I will not be able to crusade east within five years." Fan Ju hurriedly persuaded.
Originally, the Qin State had already done its best to launch the Battle of Changping, and almost drained Guanzhong, Hexi, Shangjun, Longxi, Beidi, and Bashu before raising 600,000 soldiers.
Later, in order to besiege Yewang, he launched Hedong, Hanoi and Sanchuan, and gathered 150,000 strong men, but after a battle, almost all the troops were wiped out.
However, because Hedong, Hanoi and Sanchuan had been captured by the coalition forces, the promise made by the King of Qin to the people naturally did not have to be fulfilled, but it relieved a lot of pressure.
Now the situation of Qin is not better than that of Zhao, the grain and grass of Zhao's army has been supplied by Wei and Korea, as long as the front line is still victorious, Han Wei will not cut off the grain and grass of Zhao's army.
But the army of Qin still needs Qin to supply grain and grass, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers eat horses and chew them, even if it is a mountain, it can be eaten empty.
Qin Wangji's face kept changing, and after a while, he raised his head and asked in a deep voice: "I heard that several aristocratic sons were killed during a horse race in Xianyang two days ago, and not only did they not compensate the victim's family afterwards, but instead used their power to demote the victim's family to a vassal?" ”
"Your lord, my subordinates have indeed heard about this." Fan Ju leaned over and said.
This kind of thing is not uncommon, although the Qin law is strict, but as long as it is still ruled by man, there will be human sophistication, high and low class, and Shang Ying has no choice.
Even when Shang Ying was alive, he only said that the prince was guilty of the same crime as the common people, and he didn't dare to say that the prince was punished with the common people for breaking the law, and in the end he just punished the prince's teacher, and there was no way to take the prince.
"What should I do according to the Qin Law?" King Qin asked.
"King Yu, according to Qin law, the murderer dies, but the other party is a pariax after all......"
"What untouchables? The people of my Great Qin are not high or low. Immediately issued an order, all those who participated in the horse race were to have their homes raided, the women in the family were demoted to concubines, and all the men were sent to the front, and after meritorious service, they could be given household registration. Qin Wangji waved his hand and said.
"King, isn't this punishment a bit severe, and those nobles are all small clans, even if they all copy it, they don't have much property......." Fan Ju said with some hesitation.
If you have to raid your house because of a trivial matter, everyone in the entire Qin State will be in danger.
"It's really a little less, so let's order to carry out strict investigations throughout the country, and all officials and nobles who have oppressed the people will be fined, and those who are serious will be raided and allowed to report it. In addition, Jing Yangjun died two days ago, hasn't the matter of winter clothes been dealt with yet, and it has been dealt with together, remember, you must enforce the law impartially, no matter what identity the other party is, even if the other party is the prince. Qin Wangji said awe-inspiringly.
When King Wu of Qin died, Jingyang Jun was almost made the king of Qin by Empress Dowager Xuan, and later under the pressure of King Wuling of Zhao, the current Qin Wangji was established as the king of Qin.
Even so, Jingyangjun still had an extremely large power in Qin, and Qin Wangji was worried that punishing Jingyangjun would cause domestic turmoil, so he never dealt with it.
Now that Jing Yangjun has passed away, the time has come to settle the account.
As for the sons?
Hum!
"You go in person, take the Fei Lian Army, and encounter direct suppression by those who dare to resist." Qin Wangji said murderously.
"No." Half an hour later, Fan Ju led the Fei Lian army out of the palace.
"Great King, Wang Sun Yiren has returned from Zhao Kingdom." At this time, a eunuch walked in from outside, bowed his head and said respectfully.
"Where are you now? Bring it to me immediately. Qin Wangji put down the brush in his hand.
"The king, the king and grandson are in the prince's mansion." The eunuch said.
"Alas, their father and son haven't seen each other for many years, so let them reunite and reunite, and bring me back tomorrow." Qin Wangji sighed and picked up the brush again to deal with the folds.
……
Handan, the royal palace.
"King, Lou Chang asks to see you." The eunuch reported.
"Hurry up and invite Lou Qing in." King Zhao hurriedly said.
"King, news came from the front line, Zhao Kuo did not withdraw his troops." Lou Chang stepped into the hall and leaned over and said.
Zhao Wangdan's face changed instantly, and he said angrily: "Zhao Kuo dared to disobey the monarch's order, it seems that he really has the opposite intention." The order is to stop transporting grain and grass to the front line starting today. The widow wants to see what he can do to fight the Qin State without food and grass. ”
"The King...... The grain and grass of our army are supplied by Wei and Korea......" Lou Chang leaned over and said.
"What!" King Zhao stood up suddenly, and he suddenly remembered what his father had said to him when he was alive: Grain and grass are an important means to contain front-line generals, and they must be held in their hands......
