In the northern territory of Daijun, after an earthquake, the entire Daijun seems to have experienced the end of the world, and countless houses have collapsed, even if the Daijun has been prepared by Yang Ming last year, but because they don't know the specific time node when the earthquake will occur, what the government and the army can do is really limited, except for ordering people to strengthen the house, the rest is only to store materials.

It's just that, after all, the Qin State has just occupied Daijun, even if it has built its own ruling system in Daijun, but it is only the city that can be effectively controlled, and as for the countryside below, the ruling power is really limited, so even if there is an official order issued, it is difficult to say what the specific implementation of Daijun is.

Therefore, an earthquake that spread throughout the north and has been felt to the south of Yanshan and the northern part of Zhao State, when the army as the epicenter of the earthquake is even more heavy, the houses are not one in ten, the walls of more than a dozen cities have been collapsed, the so-called landslide and mountain destruction, and the reversal of mountains and rivers is not an exaggeration.

As the county guard of Yanmen County and supervising the government affairs of Dai County, Han Fei rushed to Dai County from Yanmen County overnight, and the anxiety in his heart was a little more peaceful after coming to Dai County.

Because Dai County, the largest and most important county in Dai County, the situation is better than he imagined, not that the disaster in Dai County is lighter, but that Dai County still maintains basic order after the earthquake, the arsenal and granaries are under the control of the Qin army, and there is not too obvious chaos on the streets, under the leadership of the army, the people are also organized to dig up the people buried by the collapsed houses, in short, before Han Fei came, the disaster relief work in Dai County was on the right track, and there was not much difference between him coming and not coming.

Coming to a temporary official residence cleared out between the broken walls and ruins, Han Fei asked Zhang Yuan, the county commander of Dai County, "What is the loss of Dai County?" ”

"Hui Yu lord, the north is cold, where the people live, so the heavy adobe pile, in order to keep warm, plus the earthquake is at night, the people are at home, the earthquake came suddenly, so the casualties are quite heavy, according to the existing statistics, the death has been as many as 800 people, more than 3,000 injured, about 3,000 people are buried in the rubble, how many people can be rescued in the end, it is still unknown, as for the countryside, for a while can not be taken into account, but the number will only be greater than the number of casualties between the city." Zhang Yuan, who was acting as the county magistrate, replied.

"Dai County is not the most severely affected, and the casualties are so serious?" Han Fei looked at Zhang Yuan in his own words, but he couldn't help but have more curiosity in his eyes.

For Zhang Yuan's details, Han Fei, as the only county guard in the north today, naturally knows, a captain under the command of the original Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army, and also the earliest batch of soldiers when the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army was formed, has passed the age of thirty-five, in the war when the Qin army invaded the north last year, he was shot in the knee by a cold arrow, so that it is inconvenient to walk, plus the position of captain, it is almost the limit of the military position that a person from this background can reach, so after the war, Yang Ming let him leave the establishment of the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army, Becoming the county magistrate of this generation of counties, compared with the former position of school captain, which is more important depends only on personal judgment.

It is precisely because he knows Zhang Yuan's origin that Han Fei is curious, Zhang Yuan was born at the bottom, even if he is literate, he only began to contact after joining the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army, and under the compulsion of the military order, this is a pure martial artist, in the army, he can rely on his own martial arts and Yang Ming's invincibility, and win enough military merit to rise to a school captain, but such a thing as governing the local area should not be his full-time job.

But now the situation in Dai County is no longer a full-time or non-full-time thing, but can be called good at, a martial artist who is good at governing places? Isn't that a little too mysterious? Or is it that in the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army, there are all such strange things?

Han Fei retracted his thoughts and asked Zhang Yuan about other things, but now he didn't have the energy to take care of other things.

At a time when almost every family in the north is mourning because of the earthquake, Jicheng, the capital of Yan Kingdom, is a completely different situation.

In the palace of King Yan, Yan Dan, as the crown prince, told Yan Wangxi about the situation from the three counties in the north of the Qin State, and in his calm voice, it was an excitement that was difficult for ordinary people to detect, and he only heard Yan Dan say: "Father, the earthquake disaster in the three northern counties of the Qin State has been stretched for thousands of miles, especially the Dai County, the most heavy loss, the Qin State has just captured the three counties in the north, and it is affected by this catastrophe, it seems that God can't see the Qin State." ”

"That's the matter of the Qin State, what does it have to do with our Yan State?" Yan Wangxi asked rhetorically, the Qin State has suffered a disaster, does the Yan Kingdom need to celebrate? Completely irrelevant.

"Father, things are not so simple, I have sent someone to the Flying Fox Pass to investigate, according to the news sent back, because of the earthquake, the passage of the Flying Fox Pass was blocked by the collapsed rocks, and in less than a year, it is almost impossible for the Qin State to open up the Flying Fox Path again, so that the western border of our Yan Kingdom is one less big trouble." Yan Dan said.

"It's Zhao Guo who should be celebrated, right? With such a violent earth dragon turning over, the Flying Fox Path was blocked, so would the road from the north to Zhao also be blocked? In this way, it is impossible for Qin to use the northern border as a base to launch an attack on Zhao from the north of Zhao, they can only take the Jingcheng path as usual, and attack the territory of Zhao as a northern route army, and this northern route army still has to withstand the attack from the north and south of Zhao. Yan Wang Xi groaned.

In the previous Qin-Zhao War, although the Qin State had already known that the Great Wall in the south of the Zhao State was difficult to break through, and then took Taiyuan County as the rear and went out of the Jingcheng, but because of the central area of the Zhao State where the exit of the Jingcheng was located, the Qin Army's North Route Corps was only the North Route Army relative to the Qin Army that attacked the Great Wall of Zhao on the South Road, but once it entered the territory of Zhao State, the North Route Army of Qin State became the Middle Road Army, if it went south, it would expose the back road to the attack of Zhongshan and other places, and if it went north, it would be threatened from the south of Zhao State.

After the Qin army captured the three northern counties of the original Zhao State, this situation was completely reversed, and the Qin army could come out of the three northern counties and attack the Zhao border from the Yanzhao border, from the north to the south, and no longer have to worry about the North Road Army being attacked before and after.

As for whether the Yan State will threaten the rear of the Qin army because of this, the Qin State will probably not consider such a thing, is the Yan State a threat? That's an interesting question.

It is precisely because of this that Yan Wangxi said that it was Zhao Guocai who should really be celebrated.

And in fact, at this time, the Zhao Palace, which is nearly a thousand miles away, is indeed the case.

"Queen Mother, Zhao Didilong turned over, the mountain road was blocked, and it was impossible for the Qin State to attack our country from the three northern counties, so that our country could have one less big trouble." Guo Kai, who is the prime minister of Zhao State, also has his own intelligence system, and naturally got the news from the three northern counties at the first time.

"You can feel a slight shaking in the palace, how serious should the earth dragon in the north turn over?" Empress Dowager Zhao muttered to herself, her face was thoughtful, but what she was thinking about was what kind of loss the Qin State would have in this Earth Dragon turnover, as an enemy country, the enemy's loss was her own gain, and at one point, Empress Dowager Zhao was very good at settling accounts.

"The Qin State paid a huge price to take the three counties in the north, originally thinking of weakening the strength of our country, and taking the opportunity to attack our country from the north, but I never thought that after less than a year of occupation, it encountered this catastrophe, not only did it not get the slightest benefit, but it had to invest huge manpower and material resources to relieve the disaster, is this in response to that sentence, stealing chickens does not make rice?" Guo Kaidao, with only eyebrows and smiles in his expression, isn't it the greatest happiness to watch the enemy be unlucky?

"I only hope that the disaster in the three counties in the north can be more serious, so that it can also involve more energy of the Qin State, and it is also a good thing for us to lose the strength of the other." Empress Dowager Zhao muttered to herself.

Li Mu, who was summoned into the palace at the same time, looked at the scene in front of him, and an ugly look appeared on his face, the north was affected by this catastrophe, and the queen mother and Xiangguo were standing at the top of the Zhao country, but they were celebrating each other, yes, now the three counties in the north already belong to the Qin country, but the people there were once loyal to the Zhao country, and now in the Zhao country, more than seventy percent of the soldiers are from the three counties in the north.

In this catastrophe where the earth dragon turned over, among the dead and injured victims, there will inevitably be the families and relatives of the border knights, but now......

Li Mu endured and endured, although he barely suppressed the anger in his heart, but under the anger was cold, for a while, there was a doubt in his mind, what was it that he and the soldiers were defending between life and death?

"Queen Mother, the people of the north used to be the people of our Zhao Kingdom, and now there are still many people serving in the army, is it really appropriate for us to be so happy here?" The youngest person in the hall, the eldest son of King Zhao Guoxian, the former prince of Zhao State, and the current brother of Zhao Wangqian, Zhao Jia said in a daze.

"Young Master Jia, this matter can't be looked at like this, the three counties in the north have belonged to the Qin State since last year, and the Qin State has been affected, isn't it a good thing for us? You must know that once the Qin State launched an attack on us from the north, the food eaten by the Qin army was grown in the north, and weapons were used, there were war horses cast and ridden in the north, and there would be people from the north among the soldiers of the Qin army, and now they are our enemies, and they can't be sympathetic to the enemy. In the slightly changing face of Empress Dowager Zhao, Guo Kai took the initiative to explain.

There are some things that you really can't show too much, but there's no need to be too hypocritical.

"But those people used to be the people of our Zhao Kingdom after all." Zhao Jia, who is about to be crowned at this time, seems to still have the innocence and stubbornness of young people.

"Master Jia, the kindness of a woman is unacceptable." Guo Kai didn't seem to care about Zhao Jia's confrontation, but was very satisfied with his naivety.
