Three days later, Zhao held the largest sacrificial ceremony in history outside the city of Handan, sacrificing to the heavens, ancestors, and all the soldiers and civilians who died in the war over the years.

Tell the heavens and the ancestors about the unification of the Central Plains by the Zhao State.

It is said that those Confucian scholars wanted Zhao Kuo to go to Mount Tai to seal Zen.

As early as when Zhao Kuo was still in the state of Chu, this group of people was purging Mount Tai to seal Zen, wanting to improve the discourse power of Confucianism.

In the state of Zhao, the position of Confucianism was very awkward.

Studying the law can be an official, a soldier can lead a soldier to fight, a scholar of Moji can study and build equipment, a doctor can treat people, and a farmer can study farming......

Confucianism alone...... After learning, you can't do anything, there are indeed many scholars from Confucianism in the Zhao court and local governments, but basically they are all Xunzi and Yu Xin, and there are very few real Confucians.

So a group of Confucian students tried to start with etiquette, after all, Confucianism inherited the Zhou rites, claiming to be the most knowledgeable about etiquette.

As long as Zhao Kuo listens to them, he will carry out Mount Tai Feng Zen.

They will be able to occupy a place in the imperial court, and in the future, whether it is a Zen canonization, a sacrifice or any ceremony, it will be handed over to them to preside.

There is a saying that the first class of people makes the rules, the second class of people adapts to the rules, and the third class of people enforces the rules.

The contention of a hundred schools of thought seems to be a clash of ideas, but in essence, the dispute is about who will be the one who makes the rules.

Whether it is the history of Confucianism sparing no effort to persuade Qin Shi Huang to seal Mount Tai, or now suggesting that Zhao Kuo carry out Mount Tai to seal Zen, this is the case.

Mount Tai Feng Zen, no one has ever seen it.

Confucianism said that the seventy-two kings of ancient times were enshrined in Zen here, and no one knew whether it was true or false.

When the time comes, how to come, what etiquette, what steps, all have to listen to them, even the monarch is no exception.

However, although Confucianism in history finally allowed Qin Shi Huang to successfully seal Mount Tai, within a few years, the Qin Dynasty was gone......

Confucianism could only continue to work hard in the Han Dynasty, and finally won the victory, and became a chess player in China for more than 2,000 years, and even the emperors of previous dynasties had to compromise with them.

It is estimated that when Confucius was alive, he never imagined that the most prominent moment of his life would be after his death......

However, Zhao Kuo is not interested in Mount Tai Feng Zen, it takes time, not to mention the waste of money, and it is no different from sacrificing at the door of the house.

At least at the door of the house, the nearby Zhao people can also participate in it and improve cohesion.

Do you really think that the heavens who climbed high will hear it?

Even if it is true, then you should go to Mount Everest to enshrine Zen, not to Mount Tai.

As for the propaganda of national strength, it does have a certain effect, but it is far from the reality of slandering the good news of the last game.

In September, Zhao announced a general amnesty, and all the criminals were acquitted except for the most heinous.

The imperial court also ordered people to melt the weapons of the six countries, and cast a huge plough outside Handan City for passers-by to visit, so as to demonstrate the determination to take agriculture as the foundation and recuperate.

The official documents of the six countries were also transported to Handan, and Lin Xiangru and others had to work overtime until midnight every day, checking household registration, checking acres of land, checking taxes, and checking the list of officials......

This does not include local setbacks, development planning, personnel evaluations and appointments, and so on.

Just checking the information left by the six countries made a group of old men tired and half dead, and even Zhao Kuo had to work overtime every day.

He originally thought that after reunification, he would be able to relax, throw everything to others, and be a hands-off shopkeeper, who would have thought that he would be more tired than before.

Fortunately, the four kingdoms of Qin, Qi, Han and Wei have a complete household registration system, official assessment standards, tax collection system, and the text is very similar to that of Zhao State.

As long as the imperial court checks it again, and the local government checks it again, there is no problem.

The state of Chu is the most pitiful, many cities are controlled by feudal monarchs, the imperial court does not have detailed household registration information at all, and many people are not counted, which even leads to problems with the tax system.

The money did not flow to the hands of the imperial court, but all to the hands of the feudal nobles, no wonder the Chu State has always been big but not strong.

Moreover, there are certain differences between the bird and insect bodies of Chu and the characters of Zhao State, which makes Zhao Kuo and others difficult to identify, which greatly increases the difficulty of work.

It's just that there is no way to hand over such an important matter to others, so I can only check it by myself little by little.

"No wonder in history, Qin Shi Huang worked overtime every day, and finally died of exhaustion, who can stand this." Zhao Kuo thought in his heart that he still had the help of Lin Xiangru, Wei Wuji and others, and Qin Shi Huang had to do everything himself.

Fortunately, another month of work will be almost over, and the main thing that will be tired at that time is the place.

Counting household registration, clarifying acres of land, and unifying weights and measures, all of which will touch the fundamental interests of some people, will inevitably cause some confusion at that time.

Similarly, it is also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for officials of Zhao State.

As long as these things are handled well, it is easy to stand out from the crowd of colleagues and get the attention of the imperial court and even Zhao Kuo, and it will not be a problem to rise to prominence in the future.

Of course, if it is not handled well, it will be difficult to get promoted in the future, and even the current official position may become a problem.

Zhao Guo lacks people for everything, but there is no shortage of people who want to be officials.

While Zhao Kuo and others were dealing with internal affairs, Tian Dan also led the Shooting Battalion and Wei Wushu to the southwest.

"The Peacock Army has withdrawn from Shu County, but according to the scouts of our army, they did not really give up attacking our Zhao State, but only withdrew the army to Qiongdu State, and gathered the barbarians nearby to form an auxiliary army." Pang Xuan pointed to the map and said.

Qiongdu is the most powerful country in the southwest, but unfortunately this strength is only relative to the southwest, whether it is for Zhao or for the Mauryan Dynasty, the strength of Qiongdu is vulnerable.

Now the country of Qiongdu has been occupied by the Mauryan Empire, the monarch has been beheaded by the Peacock army, and the ministers have become prisoners.

"Qiongdu Kingdom." Tian Dan quickly found the location on the map, he didn't know much about Qiongduguo, but had only heard the name.

However, the key to this battle is not in the Qiongdu Kingdom, but in the Mauryan Dynasty, which is just a battlefield between two empires.

This is the helplessness of small countries.

In the eyes of the Chinese people, the monarch of a small country is already the supreme existence.

But in the eyes of the big powers, these small countries are nothing.

Falling behind doesn't necessarily mean getting beaten, it's just that I don't want to hit you right now.

As soon as I want to hit you, I can kill you at any time.

"How many armies do they have now?" Tian Dan asked.

"The elite of the headquarters will not exceed 50,000, the auxiliary army is not clear, the Peacock Army not only recruits auxiliary troops from Qiongdu State, but the southwestern Zhuyi Zhuzhu except for Yelang and other distant countries, the other Zhuyi are all captured by the Peacock Army, so the auxiliary army of the Peacock Army will increase every day, and the number is uncertain." Pang Xuan said.

In front of the elite of the Mauryan Dynasty, the terrain of the mountains and rivers that the southwest Yi thought was a barrier did not play a big role, and the Peacock Army easily crossed the mountains and approached the city.

In front of the Mauryan Empire, these small countries did not have any ability to resist, and it could even be said that they did not even have room for struggle.

The only thing that affects the Peacock Army may be the poisonous insects and poisonous snakes in the deep mountains and old forests.

"The auxiliary army doesn't have to worry about him, send people to contact various countries and find some guides." Tian Dan said.

He didn't treat these auxiliary troops as people at all, and the ones who really had combat effectiveness were the tens of thousands of elites of the Peacock Dynasty.

However, he does not look down on the combat effectiveness of these small countries, but he looks down on their guides.

When it comes to knowing the topography of the Southwest, no one can surpass these locals.

"During this time, the last general has gathered thousands of people from the Southwest Yi, and selected a dozen Orions who are very familiar with the surrounding terrain as guides." Pang Xuan said.

He is also a famous general in the Central Plains, although he is not as good as Le Yi Tiandan and others, he is also the first in the first sequence, and he still knows about finding a guide and drawing a map, and he has already started to prepare.

"Do you know the location of the enemy camp?" Tian Dan nodded with satisfaction, this is a famous general, he is still on the way, everything is ready.

After you arrive,

You can go to war directly.

"About five degrees west-south, a hundred miles." Pang Xuan said.

"Let's get an appetizer for the Peacock Army first." Tian Dan said with a smile, got up and walked towards the outside of the camp, "Gather the Shooting Sound Battalion."

Pang Xuan's eyes lit up, don't look at the shooting sound camp was established by Le Yi, but only in Tian Dan's hands can he exert his peak strength.

The legion of archers at the level of the military soul can be imagined.

"What if the Peacocks retreat after being attacked by the Shooting Battalion?" Immediately, Pang Xuan was a little worried.

"It's not better to retreat, the purpose of our army is to push them back, expand the territory to the east of the Rakhine Mountains, create a forward base, avoid sending the battlefield at home, as long as the strategic purpose is achieved, killing the enemy is secondary. The focus of my Zhao State now is to stabilize the country, not to expand the territory." Tian Dan said calmly.

The strategic plan set by the imperial court had been passed down to him, and he fully agreed with it.

Compared with starting an imperial war with the Mauryan Empire, it is obviously more appropriate to stabilize the country and ensure its continued development while constantly bleeding the Mauryan Dynasty.

After all, the Mauryan Dynasty is one of the best empires in the world, and it cannot be destroyed in a short period of time.

And compared with the destruction of the Mauryan Dynasty, the governance behind it is obviously more difficult.

Zhao didn't want to be assimilated by the garbage Brahmanism.

If this thing is infected, you will never want to stand up again, and the backbone of the whole nation will have to be broken.

It's better to sweep this thing into the dust of history.

Soon, Yan Zhou brought the shooting battalion over.

With Tian Dan opening his talent, the momentum of the Shooting Battalion changed instantly, and the transformation of the Army Soul Legion was completed within a few breaths, and everyone's eyes were bright and bright.

Over the years, the Shooting Battalion has continued to deepen its talents, improve its quality, and improve its skills, and what used to require talent to do can now be done only by relying on skills.

But even so, the Shooting Battalion is still far from the real Army Soul Legion, and only with the help of Tian Dan's talent can it achieve the pinnacle.

"Five degrees west-south, a hundred miles, indiscriminate attacks." Tian Dan ordered.

Whew!

The dense sound of breaking wind pierced the sky, and a dense rain of arrows flew out like locusts and disappeared into the air.

After shooting twenty waves of arrows in a row, Tian Dan ordered to stop.

In the Peacock Army, Marin is welcoming reinforcements.

The Mauryan Dynasty learned that the Zhao State was engaged in a war of unification, and adhered to the principle of taking advantage of the advantages and not taking advantage of the bastards, and sent an additional 100,000 reinforcements, including a war elephant army whose strength was equal to that of the army soul legion.

is planning to take advantage of the civil war in the Central Plains, Zhao Guo can't make a move, get a piece of the pie, at least have to take the southwest region.

As for the friendly relationship between the Zhao State and the Peacock Dynasty, that's a fart!

The Mauryan Dynasty learned that although silk was produced in various parts of the Central Plains, the Shu brocade in the southwest region was the best, and it had always been the royal family.

If this is defeated, it is equivalent to getting a mountain of gold.

The major forces of the Mauryan Dynasty had never worked together so together, and no one raised any objections, all of them supported the attack on the Central Plains.

As for the Zhao State, if it is strong, it will be strong, and the Peacock Dynasty does not really take it to heart.

The distance between the two sides is too far, there is almost no intersection in the past, the impression of the Mauryan Dynasty on the Zhao State is more about the wealth brought by trade, as for the military, although it was defeated, it doesn't mean anything.

It was just a test of the water before, and he didn't even send the real elite, so it was normal to lose to Zhao Guo.

If Zhao Guo couldn't even stop those ordinary armies that opened the way, he would not be qualified to be the opponent of the Peacock Dynasty.

The only thing that made the Mauryan Dynasty angry was that Zhao actually destroyed the Qin State, so that they recognized the wrong opponent and were discovered by Zhao State, losing the opportunity.

As for Zhao Guo's attitude, anger or something, it is not within the scope of consideration of the Peacock Dynasty.

Although Lao Tzu didn't beat you at the beginning, he beat you, and I don't need to consider other people's thoughts in my Peacock Dynasty.

Although it is very arrogant, I have to say that the Mauryan Dynasty at this time does have this capital.

He had beaten all the surrounding countries, even the Seleucid kingdom, which was also an empire.

Although Ashoka was worried about the hidden dangers of the empire, he was never worried about the empire's force.

"When I see the general, the last general is relieved." Marin led the generals to salute Sain, who had just arrived with his army, and stretched out his hand to signal Sain to walk ahead.

Sain was the second most famous general of the Mauryan Dynasty after the two gods of war, and made great military achievements in the War of Unification.

If he defeats the Zhao army in the previous battle and is in charge of commanding the rest of the war, he still has a chance to surpass Sain.

Now that he has been defeated by Zhao Jun and the position of commander has been taken over by Sain, if nothing else, he has no chance to surpass the other party.

Moreover, Sain was born in a noble family, which is not comparable to his small family.

If there is a chance, Marin still hopes to be able to have a good relationship with the other party.

Sein walked in the front without hesitation, and after entering the barracks, he sat in the first place without hesitation.

At this moment, there was a sharp sound of breaking wind in the sky, and sharp arrows instantly passed through the camp tent and shot towards the Peacock Army.

The Peacock Army never expected that they would be attacked in the barracks, and there was almost no time to react, but those who were shot at the vital point almost died on the spot.

A sharp arrow fell directly in front of Sein, and the arrow feathers were still trembling.
