Chapter 326: Capturing the Heavenly Wolf God Alive
As for the county system, it is definitely not good, someone else has worked for you all your life, just to be able to get a fief, and you directly cancel it, how can everyone agree.
In history, except for Qin Shi Huang who did this, even Liu Bang didn't dare, honestly divided the seals, and then found a way to knock them out one by one.
Now there is also no country that fully implements the county system, including the Qin State, all the counties of all countries are set up in the periphery, and the Qi State does not have a single county.
Zhao Kuo planned to seal all of everyone's fiefs to the edge of the Hetao, on the one hand, he could reduce the power of the domestic nobles, and on the other hand, he could also use the power of the nobles to develop the wasteland he had just occupied. In the future, the territory of Zhao Kingdom will be larger, and it can be sealed to other places, and there are still many borderless lands in this world.
Those nobles with fiefs may not look down on the poor countryside, but there are many upstarts without fiefdoms, and there are always those who can look at them. When Qin, Qi, Jin, and Yan were sealed, which was not a ghost place where birds don't, and then they didn't win the same party, on the other hand, Zheng Guo, Yu Guo and other countries that were sealed to rich lands have been extinct for many years, but any nobles who are a little ambitious will not mind this.
The essence of this era is the aristocracy, whether it is knowledge or wealth, all concentrated in the hands of the aristocracy, and none of the hundred schools of thought was created by commoners.
They are absolutely willing to sacrifice one generation or even several generations to seek glory and wealth more than ten generations later, just like Tian Qi. While ordinary civilians are still thinking about what to eat tomorrow, they have already begun to seek the country.
Of course, only the nobles who eat and drink without worrying about living a prosperous life will have this kind of long-term plan, not that the commoners are short-sighted, but that life oppresses them to only think about three meals a day.
It's like if you put a piece of gold and a piece of steamed bread in front of a person who is about to starve to death, he will definitely choose the steamed bread, even if he knows that gold can buy countless steamed buns.
The so-called choice is just a choice.
"We're all up to the king." Le Yi and Lian Po said that the hereditary one alone made them have no way to refuse. As for the reclamation of land, they do not need to do it themselves, so naturally there are peasant households to help them reclaim it, that is, there is no tax in the past few years, and compared with the long-term benefits, a little tax is nothing at all.
None of them are short-sighted people, and short-sightedness can't get into the current position.
"The king of the population can only satisfy half of you, and the rest is up to you to figure out how to do it." Zhao Kuo is not worried about the problem that the land cannot be sealed, the land in the world is too big, and a small piece of it cannot be sealed for everyone.
But the population has to worry. The population of Zhao is almost constant, and it will not increase suddenly in a short period of time, and once a large number of fiefs pour in, Zhao itself will face the problem of no one available.
Both Android and Apple are available. 】
Le Yi and Lian Po glanced at each other and nodded, according to the standard of one thousand households, Zhao Guo rewarded five hundred households, and they released some slaves, and it would not be a problem to get together seven or eight hundred or even one thousand households, which was enough to support a small city.
Aren't all those small countries like this in the Spring and Autumn Period, as for whether they can develop in the future, it depends on creation. Besides, they can still fight now, and they still have the opportunity to get more fiefdoms.
The two left.
Zhao Kuo revealed this matter to the two, and also used the mouths of the two to see the reactions of other people, including the people who stayed in Handan.
The period before Zhao Kuo returned to Handan was the time left for them to reflect, and when things were finalized, these things could not be changed.
Then, Zhao Kuo organized a small caravan, led by the three Huai brothers from the Hetao along the ancient road of Juyan to the extreme west, and Zhao Kuo personally sent them across the Yellow River before turning around.
Two days later, Pang Xuan finally returned, and with him came back a mountain of cattle and sheep supplies, and the Xiongnu plundered most of the wealth of the grassland, and finally cheapened all of the Zhao State.
Zhao Kuo personally met with Ding Ling's falcon master and left him in Zhao to practice falcons.
So far, the battle between Zhao and Hun is completely over. At least there is no trace of the Huns in the entire steppe. Of course, even if there were, they didn't dare to show up.
Donghu took the opportunity to invade the territory of the Xiongnu to the west, but Zhao did not give him this opportunity, and immediately sent a large army into the grassland, declared sovereignty, and began to divide counties on the grassland.
"Damn, that is, the cotton has just been discovered now, and the cotton clothes have not been made yet, otherwise how could this group of Donghu pick up cheap." Zhao Kuo said angrily.
Whether it is recognized or not, the territory of the Xiongnu ...... Bah...... Zhao's territory was still occupied by Donghu. The grassland is too big, and even the famous generals are a little beyond the reach of the whip.
"The King...... Donghu sent someone to ask us to release 100,000 prisoners......" Liu Ping walked in.
"The widow hasn't settled accounts with Donghu yet, and Donghu dares to ask my Zhao State to release 100,000 prisoners. It seems that the stable days given to him are a little long, and the order is to go down, and after three days, return to Daijun. Zhao Kuo ordered. By the way, last time you asked you to check the gods that Donghu believed, how did you check it? ”
"King Yu, my subordinates found out that Donghu believes in the wolf god, which has a similar role as the Xiongnu Kunlun god, and Donghu also sacrifices to the wolf god in March and September every year. Although no one has ever seen the manifestation of the Heavenly Wolf God, according to the intelligence, it can indeed improve the power of Donghu. Liu Pingyu reported.
"Can you find a way to catch a wolf god and bring it back to Handan to study." Zhao Kuo suddenly had an idea in his heart, although he knew that the so-called gods were not real gods, but they were also a rare thing, if they could be caught, they would definitely be able to shock the world.
Moreover, from the perspective of the Kunlun God, the power of this kind of improvement is very considerable, even if it can only take effect on Zhao Guo, or even one-third, Zhao Kuo is satisfied.
Zhao Guoxin has worked hard for so many years and only has two army soul legions, and one Kunlun god has built a military soul legion.
"The Sirius God is formless and substantial, and there is really nowhere to start." Le Yi looked embarrassed. Even if he is allowed to face a powerful enemy, he doesn't care, but capturing the Sirius God alive is really not something that can be done by being strong.
"King, I'm afraid this is difficult for some strong people." Lian Po and Pang Xuan also said that the only general in the army who could kill the Heavenly Wolf God was Li Mu, who held the Great Wall Guards, but looking at the current Great Wall Guards, forget it.
Besides, killing and capturing alive are two different things, and Li Mu's ability to kill Kunlun God does not mean that he can capture him alive.
"If you can't do it now, you can find a way, and maybe you can do it later. The king did not ask you to give you a solution at once. Zhao Kuo said.
"The two generals must also want the Shooting Battalion and the Xuanjia Army to become the Army Soul Legion, if there is no accident, they will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Moon, and they may not even be able to become the Army Soul Legion for the rest of their lives. But if you can catch the Sirius God, it will be different, and the next day you may become a military soul legion. Even if we don't catch it, we don't have anything to lose. ”
Zhao Kuo's words were purely foolish, but Le Yi and Lian Po were still convinced, they had both seen the Hun King ride, and it was really under the power of the Kunlun God that they were forcibly promoted to the Army Soul Legion, which means that the Sky Wolf God is likely to have the same effect.
"The last general, I'll go back and figure out a way." Le Yi and Lian Po glanced at each other, and said seriously, since it can be used to improve strength, then they have to make a move.
