Daqin: Robbing Qin Shihuang at the beginning

Chapter 180 The Battle of the Western Ou Kingdom

Ying Qi arranged for someone to bring the prepared meals into the palace, and as soon as he opened the door of Xianyang Hall, he saw Ying Zheng's resentful face.

"I thought you forgot me..."

"Hey, can I forget you?" Ying Qi smiled, then beckoned to put down the dishes.

"Father, try it."

Ying Zheng opened the food box, looked at the dishes and smiled.

"I knew that Churi Restaurant must be made by you, otherwise how could Kou Zhun have the ability to open a restaurant?"

Ying Qi smiled and did not deny it.

This is Ying Qi's reward to Kou Zhun for his silent efforts.

Of course, the so-called going to the frontier to become a magistrate will be shelved.

"It's all made by my son, and it's all my filial piety."

Ying Zheng smiled, took a bite with his chopsticks.

"It tastes really good, much better than Churi Building."

"Have you eaten the food from Churi Building?" Ying Qi asked in surprise.

Ying Zheng glared at Ying Qi while eating, "You think I don't know anything in this palace? I know it in my heart!"

"You really deserve to be the emperor father!" Ying Qi praised, and then silently moved to the side.

Ying Zheng felt a little dissatisfied when he felt Ying Qi was staring at him while eating.

"What are you?"

"Look at your handsome face."

"..."

Seeing that Ying Zheng was about to take the sword, Ying Qi turned his head silently.

"Actually, there is something."

"I know, whether it is through the official sale of salt and monosodium glutamate."

"Hey, Dad, you really know everything!"

Ying Zheng wiped his mouth and looked at Ying Qi seriously.

"Someone knows about your huge profits from refined salt, so write a letter to let me take it back to the state."

"But, my technology has already been handed over!" Ying Qi frowned dissatisfied, "The price I sell will only be more expensive, why do people still submit it like this?"

"Because they believe that officials and businessmen cannot collude." Ying Zheng looked at Ying Qi calmly, "You are both a Jiuqing and a businessman, so they are naturally dissatisfied."

"But what my Jiuqing does is all good things for the country!"

Ying Qi was very wronged, this was the first time he had not used his power for personal gain.

Although it is only the production of iron that is underreported and kept privately, giving priority to supplying Zhenggangou, and using stainless steel to make kitchen utensils for sale...but he is really innocent!

Ying Zheng glanced at Ying Qi, "Stop acting, I'm not being kept in the dark."

"But this fine steel is indeed a sharp weapon of the country, and I acquiesce."

Ying Qi was overjoyed, "Father, you are simply too wise!"

Ying Zheng smiled, "Gao Changgong performed outstandingly in the Battle of Lingnan. He personally shot stones and arrows, killed sixteen enemies, and captured two enemy generals alive. He can be awarded a title. You, the one who recommends, will also be rewarded accordingly. "

Ying Qi smiled proudly, "That's the person I recommend!"

"In the future, 70.00% of the profits of salt will be handed over."

"..."

"Didn't you agree to reward?" Ying Qi frowned.

"This is not bad." Ying Zheng said lightly, "The profit here is too great."

"Then I want compensation!"

"Do you still dare to bargain?" Ying Zheng said incredulously, he had picked up the Tianwen Sword at some point in his hand.

"Ah no no no!" Ying Qi quickly waved his hands, "I'm recommending talents for you!"

"What talent?"

"He Shen, I think he is very suitable to be the county magistrate of Xianyang!"

Ying Zheng showed an intriguing smile, which made Ying Qi flustered.

"That's right."

"what?"

Ying Qi was very surprised, "Why did it go so smoothly today? Dad, did you take the wrong medicine?"

Ying Zheng's face darkened, he drew his sword and shouted:

"roll!"

"promise!"

Ying Qi left the palace unhurriedly, and found Han Tan when he arrived.

"My father's plum wine..."

"My lord!" Han Tan was shocked, "If His Majesty doesn't order, really don't take it, I'm worried that my head will be lost!"

Ying Qi's face darkened, "Do I seem to be someone without His Majesty's order? Just go and get it, don't want ink stains."

"……promise."

Satisfied, Ying Qi left with three jars of plum wine.

Lu Bu looked at the plum wine and approached it with a smile.

"My lord, you are so kind to me..."

"Go away, it's not for you!"

Ying Qi scolded, "I prepared so much last time, and you drank all of it, how much do you give them!"

Lu Bu chuckled, "I know you sir, you have a knife mouth and a bean curd heart."

"piss off!"

Ying Qi cursed, then got up and went outside.

"Everything is arranged, the next thing is to wait for the money..."

……

Gao Changgong frowned and looked at the topographic map in front of him, Feng Jie looked a little ashamed.

"General, I want to hear how you fight." Gao Changgong looked at it for a long time, very puzzled.

"How did you lose on such a flat terrain? In other words, how did the opponent win?"

Feng Jie blushed, feeling very ashamed.

"I really didn't expect that they would take the initiative to attack..."

Gao Changgong shook his head speechlessly. The strength of Xiou Kingdom should not be very good. The soldiers who participated in the battle included both young and old. It is not necessary to go to war in Daqin.

The weapons on the opposite side were backward, and the army formation was also backward, but the first battle Feng Jie brought was defeated!
Gao Changgong was also very surprised, isn't there a lot of people on the opposite side?

But there is no way, these things have already happened, and it is useless to complain.

"At present, our army has 18 armored troops, and the logistics supplies are sufficient. It's just that the weather is not suitable, and there is nothing wrong with the rest."

Gao Changgong's army assigned part of Ren Xiao to guard Lingnan, and arranged for immigration, while he resolved the rebellion in Xiou Kingdom himself.

Feng Jie stood aside for a while, then suddenly stood up.

"General Gao, the Xiou Kingdom doesn't have much strength, it's just that they have a convenient location and all the people are soldiers, which makes it so difficult."

"So what can you do?" Gao Changgong glanced at Feng Jie, who hesitated.

"I still think that this battle can be decided..."

Gao Changgong sighed, Feng Jie really disappointed him.

Even he could see that the war against Xiou was not determined by fighting, but by conquering the locals.

Either kill those militants, or use other methods to influence them.

"So what to do?"

"what to do……"

The accompanying Tu Ju and others were pure warriors, and the tactics they knew were nothing more than rampage, and Zhao Tuo, who had some brains, was not qualified to speak.

"Lingnan can immigrate, why can't Xiou country?" Li Bai asked suddenly from the side.

Gao Changgong was taken aback, and quickly looked at Li Bai, who continued to speak with a smile.

"Let the Qin people pass by and assimilate with them. What's so difficult about it? As long as you guard for a while, all of these will be resolved. It's a big deal, and continue to raise the butcher's knife."

Everyone stared blankly at this imperial literati, and suddenly found that this guy seemed to have some ideas.

The reason why the Xiou Kingdom rebelled, apart from labor and taxation and careerists, was also the reason why they did not have a sense of identity with Daqin.
