Chapter 397, Ziyou enters Zhao
As for Chen Ping's matter, everyone who is doing it knows, but what Chen Ping did this time is indeed excessive, if the court does not say anything, it will be a great damage to the majesty of Qin Law.
"This matter is temporarily suppressed, and I bother the teacher to repair a letter to Chen Ping, and wait until the battle of Qin and Zhao is over, and then let Chen Ping return to the court to report on his work." Ying Zheng thought about it for a while and came to a conclusion.
"No!"
Ying Zheng has already expressed his position, and everyone can only say yes.
Chen Ping's matter can only be regarded as a trivial matter in the Qin State, whether it is Mengwu's campaign in the grassland, or Wang Jian is actively preparing to attack Zhao, Chen Ping's matter can be covered up at will.
With the passage of time, Mengwu's seizures in the grassland were gradually sent back to Xianyang, hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep, a large number of horses and a cart of treasures, so that Chen Ping's affairs were completely covered up, with the arrival of these booty, the news of Mengwu's request for the class to return to the court was also sent back to Xianyang.
Yuyang County.
Chen Ping is still working seriously, and the officials below are even more conscientious and dare not deal with various affairs with the slightest carelessness, these officials have been completely convinced by Chen Ping after seeing Chen Ping's series of methods, and even frightened, they also understand why Chen Ping was quite prestigious when he was in Xianyang. In a gathering place like Xianyang, Chen Ping can be like a fish in water, and their methods are even more difficult in Chen Ping's opinion, so they all put away their careful thoughts and concentrate on their work.
Li Xin swaggered into the county guard mansion with a soldier, and the officials around him were already surprised by this.
When Chen Ping saw Li Xin coming, he put down the brush and said
"Colleagues have worked hard, let's go and rest first."
"No!"
The officials bowed to Chen and withdrew one by one. After everyone else left, Li Xin took out the letter in his arms and handed it to Chen Ping.
"What is this?" Chen Ping asked.
"This is a letter from my husband, it was given to you, but I don't know why it was delivered to me." Li Xin said.
Chen Ping also showed some curiosity on his face, and then opened the envelope, and after reading the letter, Chen Ping's face remained unchanged and he just said lightly
"It's nothing, what we did in Yuyang County was stabbed by someone, and the teacher's letter is to blame us, saying that what we did in Yuyang County is too serious, and it has aroused the disgust of many people, saying that we have trampled the majesty of Qin Law under our feet."
Hearing this, Li Xin's face had changed a little with a little fear, although Li Xin usually dared to rush when he encountered anything by relying on his family, but he was not a fool, there were some things he really couldn't rush, especially this sentence of contempt for Qin Fa was enough to make the two of them fall to the ground.
"General Lee is scared?" Chen Ping said with a smile.
Li Xin glanced at Chen Ping, but still generously admitted
"Despise the hat of Qin Fa and buckle it down, not to mention that my previous achievements in the war to destroy the country have been swept away, and my family will also be implicated because of this, can I not be afraid?"
Chen Ping said with a faint smile
"Don't worry, if the court really wants to ask for guilt, this letter should be the king's edict of guilt, and it won't be handed over to you first and then let you hand it over to me."
"What do you mean by that?" Li Xin asked.
"The letter said that General Mengwu swept the Youxian Wang Department and was about to return to the court, and this attack on the grassland can be said to have captured a lot, and the main thing is that a large number of Huns surrendered this time and became the servant army of the Qin army, and it is about to arrive at Maitian, after harvesting this grain, it is the time to start a war against Zhao State, and Yuyang County, as the rear of Zhao State, must be flanked by the front and back."
Before Chen Ping's words were finished, he was interrupted by Li Xin and said
"I know all these things, say the main thing."
Chen Ping was not annoyed by Li Xin's words, but continued
"So what came was a letter from the teacher advising us not to go overboard, not a letter of inquiry from the king, and the teacher also said that the king asked me to return to the court after the battle of Qin and Zhao to report on my work, in order to give us the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and let us use our merits to erase our affairs in Yuyang County."
"I see, I'm in charge of the war, just leave it to me." Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the war was to atone for his crimes, he himself felt that what they had done in Yuyang County during this time was excessive, the entire Yuyang County Old Yan magnates were killed by the two of them, and there were many scholars, there were many people who were offended, especially many of these scholars were Confucians, if it was just a few people, it would be impossible for Confucianism to complain about Chen Ping, so it was enough to see what the two of them did in Yuyang County.
"It's not that simple, if it's a general merit, it's not good, at least catch a childe, the teacher said, let's keep an eye on Gongzi Jia in Daijun." Chen Ping said.
"Childe Jia? The eldest son of King Zhao Mourning? Wasn't he under house arrest in Handan by Zhao Wangqian? How did you arrest him in Daigun? Li Xin asked.
"That's what the teacher said, but he didn't say what to do." Chen Ping said.
"Sir, there must be a reason for that. Anyway, our task is to involve the idea of Yanmen Pass in Daijun, so that Li Mu is tired and unable to take care of the overall situation, as long as Gongzijia is in Daijun, I will definitely be able to catch him. Things in the court can be calmed down, but what about the people? Confucianism is still staring at you? Li Xin asked with some concern.
The reason why Li Xin is worried about Chen Ping is because the two of them pacified Yuyang County together in this year, so that the relationship between the two is very good, and on the other hand, Li Xin knows that Chen Ping will be the prime minister in the future, and the Li family will also put the treasure on Chen Ping, Chen Ping is the ally of the Li family in Wenchen, so naturally Chen Ping cannot be allowed to break his career because of the problem of reputation.
"You just have to know what you know." Li Xin said.
Chen Ping looked at the map of Yuyang County hanging on the side, but his eyes fell on an imperceptible small place at the junction of Yuyang County - Weiguo.
When Meng Wu led the army back to Xianyang, it attracted much attention, and the matter of conquering foreign tribes and expanding the territory was always something that the people were willing to see, although they did not personally participate in this matter, but there was still a sense of sharing honor and disgrace.
The Jin people and the royal flag of the right Xianwang department were placed in the front of the spoils, followed by a group of nobles of the right Xianwang tribe, after entering the city, Meng Wu went directly to the direction of the Qin Palace, after meeting Yingzheng, it was the matter of the Taimiao prisoner, with the end of a group of things, Zhao Gao read out the reward in public, with the celebration banquet held.
At the celebration banquet, He Yangli and Abatu were inferior, and the two surrendered to Qin, which led to civil strife in the Xiongnu camp, and Meng Wu directly expressed their merits, so they were qualified to enter this celebration banquet.
At the celebration banquet, Ying Zheng also said what He Yangli and Abatu wanted to hear the most, Ying Zheng gave the fertile grassland outside Beidi County that originally belonged to the Hulin tribe to the two ministries, and at the same time gave them the power to manage the grassland departments, and also arranged for civil officials, ceremonial officials and judges to go to the two tribes to start indoctrination, and the two wished that Ying Zheng would do it.
The prosperity they saw after following the army into the Qin State had already made the two of them dizzy, especially in Xianyang and the Qin Palace, which shocked the two of them beyond words, the prosperity of Xianyang, and the solemnity and magnificence of the Qin Palace, made the two of them think that they had entered heaven, and they were even more glad that it was the best choice for them to join the Qin State.
Seeing more of the prosperity of the Qin State, they also looked down on the days of the grassland, and wished that Ying Zheng would assimilate the two tribes as soon as possible, so as to integrate into the Qin State, and even Ying Zheng did not propose to let them send the noble teenagers in the clan to Xianyang to study, and the two of them took the initiative to say this sentence, which made Ying Zheng feel that the two of them knew the current affairs very well, so they rewarded the two of them with a lot of money, which caused the two to kneel and thank them.
The Qin State was calm, but the grassland was not very good-looking, because after the news that the Youxian Wang's troops were swept by the Qin army spread, the originally tense Zuoxian King and Mao Dun stopped their movements.
King Zuo Xian was unwilling to let go of the idea of attacking Mao Dun, and Mao Dun fell into shock at this time, he originally thought that Qin State could defeat King Youxian, but it would not be too easy and the time would be longer, but he didn't expect the Qin army to sweep the entire Youxian King Department so quickly, and such a fast battle caught him a little off guard.
For this reason, Mao Dun began to actively prepare to attack Zuo Xian Wang for a while, and the strength of Qin State made Mao Dun have a sense of crisis, he knew that once Qin State unified the Central Plains, the next one would be the grassland, so he must unify the Xiongnu and further unify the grassland in order to compete with Qin.
Just when Mao Dun was actively preparing, this matter was stopped by Ram Ling and Wei Zhuang.
"What does this mean, Prime Minister? Why did you stop our attack on King Zuoxian? Maudun looked at the ram order dissatisfied.
"Da Dan is angry, now is not the time to start a war with King Zuoxian"
Before Ram Ling's words could be finished, he was interrupted by Mao Dun.
"The Right Xian Wang Department was wiped out by the Qin State, the Left Xian Wang Department lacks support, relying on our current strength to fight with the Zuo Xian Wang Department may not lose, and the Da Yue Clan also promised us to join forces with us to attack the Zuo Xian Wang Department." Maudon said.
"Da Shan Yu has not forgotten the Hu people." Ram Ling said.
Hearing the ram order talking about the Hu people, Mao was stunned for a moment, and then quickly looked at the map, on which the ram order had marked the recent movements of the Hu people, and the Hu people's army had almost arrived at the territory of the Xiongnu.
Suddenly, there was a cold sweat behind his back, if he really started a war with King Zuo Xian, and he couldn't defeat King Zuo Xian, Hu Ren would steal the house first.
"Da Dan Yu can see it, we are not the time to start a war with King Zuo Xian, we should unite with King Zuo Xian to destroy the Hu people first." Ram Ling said.
Maudun hesitated for a moment, then could only agree. The Hu people were eyeing him, and he could only give up the idea of attacking Zuo Xian Wang, and began to send people to make peace with Zuo Xian Wang, preparing to destroy the Hu people first.
In June, with the completion of the harvest of the first crop of grain, the entire Qin State began to actively prepare for war.
In the Wangshi Mansion, Ziyou was dealing with military affairs, and the Qin State was already preparing to attack the Zhao State, and the troops and materials from all over the country began to be mobilized.
Looking at the military affairs that fell like a hill, the Snow Maiden opened one at random, and then covered it again, and she felt a headache when she looked at these things.
"Sir, are you doing it alone? Shouldn't the problem of these materials be dealt with by Mr. Zhang Cang? Snow Maiden asked curiously.
"Of course not, these are military materials, and the grain and grass naturally have to be dealt with by the senior brother, but more armaments and materials are less to deal with, but the premise of all this is that I have to do a good job of scheduling, and arrange the approximate number and army to the designated position, this time we have to fight on three fronts." Ziyou said.
"Three-front warfare? Shangdang County, Yuyang County, Dongjun, and the three-line battle, is it too high to think of Li Mu? But Shangdang County and Yuyang County let Li Mu take care of one or the other, right? The salamander said with some surprise when he heard this.
Concubine Yan also nodded, they always felt that Ziyou was a little too high in view of Li Mu, although Li Mu was the number one general in the world, Wu Anjun of Zhao State, but in the face of the powerful Qin State, just using national strength could consume the current Zhao State.
"The battle of Qin and Zhao cannot be delayed, it must be resolved quickly, once it is delayed, let the Zhao State recall the original Battle of Changping, and the Zhao State at that time was holding the belief that the jade was burned to drag the Qin State into the water." Ziyou shook his head and said.
Qin State fights Zhao State, naturally there is no big problem, but Qin Zhao feud, once Zhao State holds the belief that jade will be burned and Qin State fights to the death, this will outweigh the losses, and it must be resolved quickly.
"Isn't the Academy of Sciences developing new weapons? The gentleman also said before that it was specifically for the restraint of cavalry. Snow Maiden said.
Hearing Xue Nu talk about the newly developed weapon of the Academy of Sciences, everyone also thought of the explosions that kept sounding in the Academy of Sciences, and Ziyou also nodded and said
"Gunpowder naturally helps us to defeat the cavalry, but gunpowder is not a decisive condition for victory."
Gongyihai has successfully developed gunpowder, and at the same time, he has also preliminarily mastered the use of gunpowder, and some land mine bombs and rockets have been developed, but they are still studying the guns that Ziyou said, after all, there are no drawings, and Ziyou does not understand the specific production process of firearms, so he just put forward a general idea and let Gongyou and Mojia study it.
Since the Mo family decided to rely on the Qin State, the ink craftsman has come to the Academy of Sciences and Qin Mo to reorganize the Mo family's mechanical arts, and the Mo Debate and the Mo Men have all moved into the Great Qin Xue Palace, with the support of the Qin State, the decaying Mo Debate has also developed rapidly, and at the same time, the debate between Confucianism and Mo in the Great Qin Xue Palace has also begun to become intense, but because this is Xianyang, the debate has not evolved into a fight, but the brawl has also happened a few times, and even alarmed Ying Zheng, Ying Zheng was also interested and secretly watched a few fights between hundreds of scholars.
"Didn't Mr. say before that he was going to Zhao Kingdom? Are we still going now? Snow Maiden asked.
"Go, I have to personally take charge of Zhao Guo's affairs, if there is not enough commitment, Guo Kai's character will not be able to make up his mind." Ziyou said.
This time to attack Zhao, Ziyou was ready to take command in person, but he was not ready to stay in the army, but was ready to go to Zhao.
"And when are we leaving?" Snow Girl asked.
"Wait until this stuff is done." Ziyou pointed to these military affairs and said.
"Okay."
The Snow Girl no longer bothered Ziyou, and after Ziyou took a few days to deal with military affairs, he went to meet Yingzheng and said that he would go to Zhao State, and after arranging everything, Ziyou took a few people to Zhao State.
