Chapter 41: The First Tiger Guard
The current Marquis of Qin, who has been in power for fifteen years, and Qin Ye, who is forty-one years old this year, faced with this tidal wave, he didn't know what to do for a while.
His father, Qin Xianghou, is a somewhat impatient father, who has been obsessed with imitating the heroic wind of his ancestors all his life, and every day is galloping horses and hunting, practicing military exercises, and leading the Tiger Guards to the battlefield countless times. or even not very interested in women, in the end there is only one son like Qin Ye.
And Qin Ye was born with the bloodline of the heroic and heroic Qin Hou, he has a quiet temperament, and he can't raise any spirit for the cause of leading the Qin people, expanding the territory, and winning thousands of miles, he would rather read books quietly, fiddling with the strange flowers and plants in the palace garden, and sometimes the delicate small utensils produced by the dismantling and assembly craftsman Han can also pass the day. After getting married at the age of eighteen, he was also very fond of his wife from the Sun family, and he was much more interested in lifting the eyebrow pencil in the boudoir than in carrying a sword to hone his combat skills. A few years later, they also had a lovely and intelligent daughter, Qin Yan.
Xianghou was naturally not satisfied with Qin Ye's son, but in the first battle of Qianhaiyuan, Xianghou fell into the hands of the Zhao people, and rashly led the main force of the Qin army to defeat him. The one who can inherit the position of Marquis of Qin is Qin Ye alone.
At that time, Qin Zhong, the monarch of Heyang, did not have the idea of taking over, but the historians of the Sun family resolutely supported Qin Ye to take over, and the Nangong family had a vague attitude and did not clearly stand on Qin Zhong's side. The atmosphere in the entire Qin State was gloomy, and there was great resentment against the Heyang Jun family who did not send troops to participate in the battle of Qianhaiyuan. At that time, if Qin Zhong wanted to act rashly, the possibility of success was not great.
So in the end, sitting on the throne of the monarch of this golden country was Qin Ye, who was completely at a loss.
Since taking over the throne, the state of Qin has been shaky, the Heyang Jun family is flying and difficult to control, the Zhao State is oppressive, the power of Rouran has risen sharply, and the vitality of the country has been difficult to recover, and the state is becoming increasingly scarce - the commerce of the Qin State is not prosperous, and the most produced is only agricultural products, and a large part of it is consumed in its own country. The mines that produce gold in the country and the salt ponds that produce salt are all in the hands of the family, and they cannot supplement the finances of the Qin Marquis. It turned out that the Tiger Guards crisscrossed the Western Wilderness, and they had a large number of captures from the ghost side and Rouran, so they had an endless stream of income. But with the fall of the Tiger Guards, this source of wealth also dried up.
Such a tricky state affair made Qin Ye helpless. In the third year of taking over the throne, after Mrs. Sun left a thin baby boy Qin Zhao, she died because of a secret cause of the Sun family in Nanze.
Qin Ye was in pain to the heart, and at that time he had lost his exact understanding of the outside world. I knew that the Zhao people also took advantage of the situation to raise troops to invade the territory, and fought fiercely with the Shi family in front of the Shuangying Pass. In the end, Qin Ye married the daughter of the Zhao Hou family to end the war. And that Mrs. Rong lives in the Qin Palace, with Heyang Jun as her wings. After giving birth to his son Qin Rong, he wanted to support Qin Rong as the prince of Qin and turn Qin into a vassal state of Qiang Zhao.
Qin Ye was almost discouraged and disappointed in state affairs, and he was just at the mercy of others. The only thing that hurts me is my own children. Unexpectedly, after her daughter grew up, she took the initiative to come forward and work hard to sort out these state affairs for herself.
She brought Sun Yang, the new generation of the Sun family, as her help, and first established a city guard, so that Qin Hou had a little force. Shi Wuju, the young head of the young family of a good historian, thought that Heyang Jun was contained. He also worked hard to sort out the finances of the territory directly under the Marquis of Qin, cleaned up a large number of abandoned fields and released slaves to cultivate for the common people, repaired water conservancy to reward farmers and mulberries, and reduced the taxes of the city, and introduced a large number of Qi merchants into Qiyang City, so that Qiyang finally recovered some vitality here, and even accumulated a little wealth that could initially re-establish the Tiger Guard!
And she personally raised her little brother, and maintained Qin Zhao's status under the persecution of Mrs. Rong and Heyang Jun step by step.
And the younger generation of the Qin State has gradually grown up, and the Shi Wuju of the Shi family has won successive battles, and he has stubbornly blocked the Rouran army from the territory after the contraction of the Qin State, and it is the Zhao people who are also afraid of the new head of the Shi family who is stuck in the Shuangying Pass passage. Sun Yang, the new head of the Sun family, was also gradually able to support himself and help Qin Hou's lineage. Although the Heyang Jun family is still strong, it is no longer without the slightest strength to resist.
What's more important is that Qiang Zhao, who has been eyeing the north of Qin, has been eyeing the north of Qin, with the new Zhao Hou taking over the throne ten years ago, in the past few years, Qiang Zhao has also had a lot of turmoil in the country, and Zhao Hou has deprived a lot of the original family fiefs, turned into a direct leader of the state and county, and sent officials to rule. The family has been in turmoil repeatedly, and the complicated turmoil two or three years ago was even more disturbing. Although these turmoil were suppressed under the iron fist of Zhao Hou, the pressure of Zhao on Qin was reduced a lot for a while. Not to mention that now Zhao Hou is ambitiously preparing to start a war against Wei, to cross Rongqi, return to the heart of the Central Plains, and want to become the new overlord of the entire Donghua world!
Therefore, these changes, Qiang Zhao's attitude towards the Qin State has somewhat changed from oppression to co-optation. The focus is on wanting to use Qin Rong, who has Zhao blood, as the prince of Qin. Through this means, the Qin State was firmly tied to Qiang Zhao's chariot.
And Qin Ye can swallow everything, and he can pretend not to see anything. The son that Mrs. Sun left him, Qin Ye couldn't bear to let him lose the position he deserved.
In the past, he only procrastinated, for fear that if he rashly established Qin Zhao as the son, he might bring some unpredictable danger to this child.
But as the pressure of Zhao Guo decreased slightly, and the strength of Qin Hou's family gradually increased under Qin Yan's management, Qin Ye couldn't help but move this thought again, after all, he couldn't delay it forever!
That's why he acquiesced to Qin Yan's move to re-establish the Tiger Guard. And if the Tiger Guard Army can be re-established, the nominal commander will be Qin Zhao. With this strength as a backing, Qin Ye will make him the son of the world!
However, this should have been carefully arranged, but because of a young man named Xu Le of the Shi family, it caused an unprecedented melee in Qiyang, and Yan'er stabbed the matter of re-establishing the Tiger Guard Army in front of all the Qin people in Qiyang, and also guaranteed that this young man named Xu Le was the first person to re-enter the Tiger Guard!
Isn't this a ruthless offense to Heyangjun and Rui Shijun?
Wave after wave of shouts rang out, surging at Qin Ye's feet.
Qin Ye slowly glanced at the faces of the people under his rule, and everyone was trembling with excitement. The Tiger Guards are the pride of the Qin State, the pride of the Qin people of Qiyang, and the name that the Qin people of Qiyang can't bear to mention for fifteen years!
Now this young man of the historian who aroused the blood of the Qin people in the city and made people suddenly recall the proud days of Qiyang, it is because of him that the Qin people of Qiyang heard this long-lost military horn again in front of the Qin Marquis!
Almost every Qiyang Qin person has relatives of the previous generation who can have a relationship with the Tiger Guard. And after the news of the total annihilation of the Tiger Guards came back, the scene of crying all over the city seemed to be yesterday.
And now, the Tiger Guard is about to be re-established!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Qin Ye was silent for a long time, and then looked at the ministers around him. The courtiers looked different, excited, disapproving, or anxious. But he didn't say a word, this matter is too big, and it will have to make huge waves in the Qin State, and no one knows which side to stand on to ensure his net worth and status!
Qin Ye looked at his children again, Qin Yan still bowed deeply to the ground, and Qin Zhao stood beside his sister a little ignorantly, Sun Yang signaled to him slightly, and Qin Zhao followed and bowed down. And Sun Yang took a breath and bowed deeply to Qin Ye and invited him down.
For the sake of these children, let's gamble once. Yan'er is smart and cautious, and she must be more thoughtful than me, an incompetent gentleman and an incompetent father............
Qin Ye waved the iron Ruyi in his hand with a calm face, and tried his best to say in the most majestic voice: "Ben Hou has long had plans to re-establish the Tiger Guard First Army, and today he will announce it to the whole country, re-establish the Tiger Guard First Army, and take Hou Zi Qin Zhao as the commander of the Tiger Guard Army............ That's it!"
After saying this, Qin Ye seemed to have exhausted all his strength, sat back on his seat, and motioned for the car to drive back to the palace.
The voices of the Qin people in Qiyang all stopped when Qin Hou Tie Ruyi swung his wishes, and listened to Qin Hou's words just now with bated breath.
There was silence in the field for a while, and suddenly a huge cheer broke out again, and I don't know how many swords were drawn again, pointing at the sky above Qiyang City!
"Re-establish the Tiger Guard!
In this wave of cheers, Qin Hou lowered the curtain and returned to the Qin Palace under Sun Yang's escort.
And Qin Ye was behind the curtain, unable to support his sitting posture and leaned against the wall of the carriage.
I hope Yan'er can see it accurately and do it right............ But as the Marquis of Qin, since he took over the throne, he has indeed never seen such a fierce morale of the people in the city............
Is it all because of the young man of the Shi family?
Qin Ye thought back to Xu Le's face, but found that he hadn't paid much attention to what this young man looked like.
Anyway, this is all Yan'er's thing to worry about, she should know how to arrange everything............
Among those who remained, Qin Rui suddenly sneered loudly, waved his hand and said, "Let's go! Qiyang actually regards us as a great enemy, what are we annoying here, what kind of victory are we offering? If there is any war in the future, let's rely on the Tiger Guards! Let's go back to Heyang to receive punishment!"
Under his beckoning, the soldiers of the Rui Shi Army and the three heroes all took action, carried the corpses with the wounded, and crashed away amid the cheers of the Qin people. Feng Po, Huang Fei, Cao Neng, the three masters, also went with hatred, while Nangong Yang glanced at Che Li indifferently, Che Li gave him a big white eye, and finally Nangong Yang and his brother Nangong An beckoned, and also went with the team.
Before leaving, Qin Rui turned around and nodded Xu Le with a sneer.
Xu Le was now full of lawsuits, and when he saw Qin Rui's actions, he also sneered and made a gesture of cutting his throat at him!
Do you think this is not over? Lao Tzu still thinks that this is not over!
Qin Rui's face turned blue with anger at Xu Le's move, but he also knew that it was no longer suitable for a big fight, so he turned around and left. Behind him, Shi Bao was also secretly learning Xu Le's movements, and he had a lot of fun with this cool-looking throat-cutting posture.
As soon as the Rui Shijun left, the cheers of the Qin people in Qiyang fell silent for a while, and then they rushed towards Xu Le with greater enthusiasm.
"Re-enter the Tiger Guard first!"
Xu Le and several brothers were even a little unstaggered by such noise and enthusiasm.
Why did I suddenly become the hero of this Qiyang City? I'm just desperately trying to find a way out............
But looking at the enthusiastic faces, looking at the Qiyang Qin people who had just drawn their swords and fought for themselves, there were still blood stains on their bodies. I think that many people are dying or hurting for themselves today. Xu Le sighed in distress.
I can't say that I really want to work hard in this Tiger Guard for a while............ It's really bad to owe a favor............
It's all the idea of the marquis girl who has a lot of eyes, Lao Tzu is afraid of dealing with this kind of person, but he just can't hide from it!
In the crowd, a pair of clear eyes of the Marquis also looked over, and fell deeply on Xu Le.
