Chapter 736: Honors
King Qi nodded again and again, Zhao Kuo's words simply reached his heart, he had the Queen Mother in charge of the Qi State, and there was a group of ministers staring at him below, it was simply difficult.
Look at Zhao Kuo again, like him, he doesn't do anything every day, you know that eating, drinking and having fun, those ministers don't even dare to fart.
It's simply more popular than people.
In the final analysis, it is because the widow has no money, and if he has no money, he has no confidence, and he is not hard to speak, so no one dares to stop the widow! King Qi secretly made up his mind in his heart that he would definitely learn from Zhao Kuo and make money after he went back.
"This time I came to Zhao Kingdom, and the widow gained a lot." King Qi was very happy, and even had a lot of good feelings for Zhao Kuo and Zhao Guo.
"In the future, the king of Qi can come often, as long as there is a widow, my Zhao country and Qi country will be like a family." Zhao Kuo was also full of affection for King Qi.
It would be nice if the neighbors around him were like King Qi, and he would really have peace of mind.
It's a pity that this is not possible.
"It's the same with my Qi country." King Qi remembered the ostrich he had just seen, and said to Zhao Kuo, "By the way, the widow heard that King Zhao is preparing a caravan and preparing to go to the Western Regions? I wonder if you can give me a ride to Qi Guo? The widow has some interest in the fabled country of Tiaozhi."
"This is a trivial matter, but the goods have to be prepared by Qi Guo himself, it is best to Qi Xuan, light and easy to carry, and can be sold at a high price, the people over there in the Western Regions like it very much, and you can do the rest by yourself." Zhao Kuo said.
Qi is the white silk produced by Qi State, and it is also a high-grade silk, which belongs to the international general goods, second only to Shu brocade.
All countries in the Central Plains produce silk, including Zhao State, where men and women weave, but when it comes to silk, it is still the best in Bashu.
"That's nature, the goods are definitely prepared by ourselves." King Qi beckoned to the ministers behind, "Immediately send someone back to Linzi, organize a group of caravanserais, and set off with Zhao State."
"No." The minister of Qi hurriedly responded.
After visiting the garden, Zhao Kuo took the King of Qi to the Prison Heaven Division, where there was the most advanced telescope in the entire Zhao Kingdom, which was built on the astrological platform.
"The king is here?" Gande and Shi Shen heard that Zhao Kuo was coming, and thought that Zhao Kuo had figured it out, and was about to invest money to study how to go to heaven, so they ran out of the Heavenly Prison Division excitedly, without any grace, and after learning that it was not, their faces changed instantly, and they said casually, "The old ministers are so old, and the king is still tossing us two old guys, if there is something to tell Yin Gao's kid, don't you just do it."
"This is the three major astrologers of my Zhao Kingdom, Gander, Shi Shen and Yin Gao." Zhao Kuo introduced to King Qi. Speaking of which, Gander is still from the Qi country, but he doesn't know if he wants to come to the king of Qi, so Zhao Kuo didn't mention it, so as not to make the king of Qi unhappy.
"The widow has seen three." King Qi arched his hand and said.
Gander, Shi Shen, and Yin Gao hurriedly leaned over to return the salute.
"The king, this is ......" Gander looked at Zhao Kuo and asked cautiously.
"The widow brought the king to see the stars." Zhao Kuo said.
"Looking at the stars?" Gander and Shi Shen glanced at each other, their eyes lit up, and the two patted their chests and said, "Don't worry, the king, this matter will be handed over to our two old men to be responsible, and we promise to satisfy King Qi."
King Qi looked at Zhao Kuo inexplicably, just looking at the stars, why did he come here specifically, can't he see it anywhere? Besides, widows aren't interested in the stars.
"King Qi, please." Gande and Shi Shen surrounded the King of Qi on the left and the right, and walked with the Qi Dynasty telescope without saying anything, "The King of Qi doesn't know, the stars we see are not the same as in reality, they only hang a little bit in the sky, in fact, they are very large, even about the size of the earth under our feet......
The two old men, Gander and Shi Shen, didn't care whether King Qi could understand it or not, and no matter how much damage their words would cause to King Qi's worldview, they directly surrounded King Qi in all directions.
King Qi was dizzy, and before he could understand what was happening, he was pulled to the telescope.
"King Qi, please see, this is the moon, according to our speculation, the moon revolves around the earth, by the way, we named the earth under our feet the earth. We speculate that the area of the moon is larger than the entire Qi country, and the old man is now
I'm studying how to fly to the moon." Gander said with a fluttering eyebrow.
"Fly to the moon?" King Qi's pupils dilated instantly, and he didn't understand a word of what Gander said in the past, but he understood the last sentence.
He thought Gander was just an ordinary old man, and now he realized that he was underestimating Gander.
Ascension, isn't this something that only immortals can do?
"Not bad! The old man's lifelong dream is to be able to move to the moon one day. King Qi is not interested?" Gander finally showed his fox tail.
It doesn't matter if Zhao Kuo doesn't support his research, we still have the King of Qi, and the Qi country has been rich since ancient times, even if it is not as good as the current Zhao country, it is richer than other countries, and it is not easy to support his small research.
Gander has no psychological pressure on his old club.
"Widow...... Can you go to the moon too?" King Qi's calm heart gradually became restless, and his breathing began to become short.
This is the moon, the place where the legendary immortals live, if you can fly to the moon, can you also feather and ascend to immortals, and live forever?
"Absolutely. But the old man has some problems with his research now......" Gander said.
"What's the problem?" King Qi hurriedly said.
"There's not enough money." Gander said.
"How much do you need?" The widow is out." King Qi waved his hand.
"Initially, 500 million, no, 100 million." Gander was afraid that he would scare King Qi away, so he didn't dare to ask for more.
"The widow doesn't have that much money." The king of Qi said in embarrassment, although he is the king of Qi, but he is constrained everywhere in the country of Qi, and there is not much money that can be called, and he donated 30 million to the doctor yesterday, where is the money for Gande.
"50 million is fine." Gander gritted his teeth and said, he didn't expect the dignified King Qi to be so poor.
"Fifty million is not ......," King Qi said with some embarrassment, "But don't worry, old man, the widow has learned a lot from King Zhao to collect money...... Well, the way to make money, when the widow has money, he will definitely help the old man."
"Great King...... Gander and Shi Shen looked at Zhao Kuo with blank eyes, tears about to flow out. The people of Zhao know that their king has a mountain of money, and he is definitely not short of money, but he is willing to give it to them.
"The widow really has no money." Zhao Kuo spread his hands, it's not that he doesn't want to help Gande and Shi Shen, it's just that he can't use Zhao Guo's money to go to waste.
"Yin Gao." Gander shouted behind him.
"Gan Lao." Yin Gao hurriedly stepped forward.
"You come to explain to the king and the king of Qi, the old man is a little tired, so he goes back to rest." Gander waved his hand.
"Isn't King Zhao interested in going to the moon?" King Qi looked at Zhao Kuo.
"There are some interests, but few people don't think that humans will be able to go to the moon anytime soon." Zhao Kuo said, also reminding King Qi not to throw money.
Before King Qi threw money to the doctor's house, Zhao Kuo was happy to see it, and even planned to take King Qi to the farmhouse and the Mo family to go around, dry good things for King Qi, and see if he could cheat some money by the way.
But Zhao Kuo didn't want King Qi to throw money at the moon landing plan.
In other places, if money is thrown, you can see some results, but the moon landing is absolutely impossible to achieve results, not at all.
It's a pity that King Qi will be wrong about Zhao Kuo's meaning, he thought that Zhao Kuo said a short time of months or years, but he didn't know that Zhao Kuo was talking about a thousand years......
"The widow can wait slowly, as long as there is hope." King Qi said with a smile.
"If you're lucky enough to keep the tomb from being robbed, there's a chance you'll see the bones that day." Zhao Kuo said.
"......" King Qi.
Zhao Kuo patted King Qi on the shoulder and stopped talking, he had already reminded him of this, if King Qi still had to jump into the pit, then he had no choice.
For the next period of time, Zhao Kuo took the king of Qi to ride a horse and shoot arrows every day, and went up the mountain to hunt. The King of Qi had never been so happy, and he stayed in Zhao for more than half a month before returning to Qi.
Before leaving, the two old men, Gander and Shi Shen, kept sending the king of Qi outside the city to talk to the king of Qi
all the way, and finally reluctantly left.
It's hard to find a rich man these days. Although Zhao Kuo has money, he can't give it to them, so he can only find a way from King Qi.
Seeing King Qi patting his chest and assuring, Zhao Kuo knew that what he had said before was in vain, and King Qi had been fooled by the two old men, Gander and Shi Shen, and couldn't find the north.
"King, the exploits of all the soldiers have been counted, no one has been missed, and the list has been sorted out." Le Yi found Zhao Kuo and handed over a long list and a small notebook.
"Let's get noticed." Zhao Kuo took the list.
"Then go and inform all the soldiers of the army and the people of the city." Le Yi was a little excited.
The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, the people in Handan got up from their beds and walked towards the south of the city.
Soon, a dull sound came from the ground in the distance, like a war drum and like thunder, and then Zhao Jun emerged from the horizon and quickly approached Handan.
Rushing to the front is the pride of Zhao Guo - Zhao Feiqi.
Behind Zhao Feiqi was the Great Wall Army.
After all the cavalry except the Praetorian Guard was out, it was the Xuanjia Army led by Lian Po, and the infantry of the Zhao State.
Behind the infantry, there were crossbowmen led by the Sound Battalion.
Finally, there was Zhao Kuo and the Praetorian Guard.
Without a legion to show off their skills, Zhao Feiqi didn't even release his light wings, just passed by everyone normally, but everyone's hearts were full of shock.
Just passing by them, they felt the power of the stormy waves, if Zhao Jun unfolded all the momentum, I am afraid that no ordinary person could withstand it.
Whenever a legion came to a fixed position, it would stop and stand silently, not making any more noise.
Zhao Kuo rode on a war horse in military uniform, and led the Praetorian Guards across the crowd and went straight to the platform that was built. Zhao Kuo turned over and walked to the stage, facing everyone.
"The widow reformed and changed the law and improved the military merit system. It is stipulated that all Zhao people can join the army. Whoever I am Zhao Bing, I will be rewarded for my merits, and I will be punished for my mistakes. Since last year, our Zhao State has successively fought with Qin, Yan, and Qi, and countless soldiers have fought bravely and made great contributions. Today, under the witness of our Zhao people, the widow will award the soldiers of our Zhao army."
"The first to be awarded was Wu Anjun Li Mu. Last year, the Yan State violated the peace treaty and sent 100,000 troops to attack Hejian County of our Zhao State. After Li Mu received the order, he led the Great Wall Army southward, creating a miracle of breaking 100,000 Yan troops in 20 days, capturing Jicheng in a month, and destroying the capital of Yan State."
"In May this year, the Qin general Wang Ling led an army of 40,000 troops from Hanoi to besiege Handan. After Li Mu received the news, he rushed for thousands of miles in three days, defeated the Qin army outside the city, and captured the main general of the Qin army and 40,000 Qin troops."
"After that, Li Mu led the Great Wall Army to the front line to support, and when the two armies fought, he defeated several Qin armies one after another and shot the King of Qin."
Everyone's eyes were focused on Li Mu, if it weren't for Zhao and King Zhao, Li Mu would be the only military god of the younger generation of Zhao Kingdom.
"General! Go up." Sima Shang struggled to keep his voice down.
The officers and soldiers of the Great Wall Army all looked at Li Mu, although they did not speak, they all encouraged Li Mu with their eyes.
"Wu Anjun's exploits are inseparable from the help of the Great Wall Army. Therefore, the first personal medal was awarded to Wu Anjun. And the first team medal was awarded to the Great Wall Army. Please Wu Anjun, Li Mu, and the Great Wall Army to come to the front." Zhao Kuo continued.
"And us?" The Great Wall Army looked at Zhao Kuo and Li Mu in surprise, they thought that the first meritorious medal was awarded to Li Mu, but they didn't expect all of them to have a share.
"Come on." Zhao Kuo looked at Li Mu with a smile on his face, waited until Li Mu walked in front of him, and hung the prepared merit medal on Li Mu's chest.
The Great Wall Medal is made of gold and bronze, shining in the sunlight, and is engraved with the pattern of the Great Wall, above the pattern, there are three big characters of the Great Wall Army, and the name of Li Mu is in the lower right corner.
In addition to this, there is also a personal merit medal of the first class, also made of gold and bronze, on which is engraved a sharp sword, and there are likewise there
Li Mu's name.
Each of Zhao Guo's meritorious medals is specially made, Li Mu's meritorious medal is engraved with Li Mu's name, and the meritorious medals of other soldiers are engraved with the names of other soldiers.
The model, size, and material of each merit medal are different.
It can be said that each meritorious medal is unique.
Le Yi, Lian Po and others also stepped forward to award meritorious medals to the soldiers of the Great Wall Army.
"The Great Wall Army!"
"The Great Wall Army!"
"The Great Wall Army!"
I don't know when, there was a shout that resounded all over the world, and all the Zhao people shouted at the top of their voices to cheer for the Great Wall Army.
"The Great Wall Army, guarding the northern frontier of my Zhao State for decades, has never lost my Zhao State and all the people of the Central Plains. But the widow never wants to defend, but to attack. The widow hopes that the Great Wall Army will be able to change from a great shield guarding our Zhao Kingdom to a sharp sword that slashes at the enemy." Zhao Kuo patted Li Mu's shoulder.
"The last general will live up to the king's trust." Li Mu said solemnly.
"The Great Wall Army lives up to the king's trust." All the Great Wall troops shouted.
"You go down with the Great Wall Army first." Zhao Kuo said.
"No."
After the Great Wall Army retreated, everyone's eyes were focused on Zhao Kuo again.
"The second to be awarded the title was Duping Jun Tian Dan, who was ordered to support Han and Wei when the Qin State attacked Han and Wei last year, first leading a large army to kill the Qin general Zhang Ruo and defeating the Qin army. After beheading the Qin general Zhang Tang, he captured 50,000 Qin troops without blood......
