I tried my best to help Zulong, and finally got my wife

"Brother, I don't know what happened when the king called the ministers late at night?"

Xiong Dian, who had just been promoted to be a servant, was very high-spirited. He came to the eldest brother and asked proudly.

Xiong Qi closed his eyes, put his hands together on his belly, and meditated quietly. Hearing Xiong Dian's question, he slowly opened his eyes and took a look.

"Just wait, you have just been promoted to Jiuqing, don't try to die, there is nothing wrong with not doing anything."

However, he still said to the younger brother: "It may be that the war in the north has undergone major changes!"

Xiong Dian cupped his hands and said, "Yes, I have just been promoted to one of the nine ministers, I will cherish it..."

On the other side, Prime Minister Wang Wan and Fengchang Li Si stood together, because Li Si was the king's guest secretary and knew everything about the palace.

Wang Wan smiled and said, "Fengchang, do you know that the king summoned us late at night, why?"

Li Si cupped his hands, with a smile on his face, and said: "Prime Minister, what is your majesty's mind, is it just a subject's random guessing? This is inappropriate."

Wang Wan: "..."

Yao Jia, who is a lieutenant of the state, actually already knew that the king was in such a hurry to summon all the ministers, it must be that the war in the north has been completed, and it is time to take action against Zhao Guo, he stepped forward and said with a smile: "I know."

Wang Wan's eyes lit up. During this period of time, he had made no achievements and made no contribution. Seeing everyone climbing up, he was very anxious and asked quickly, "Master Guowei, can you tell me?"

Yao Jia smiled without saying a word, and after waiting for a while, he finally said: "I can't say it, how can it be the way of a minister to figure out what you want without authorization?"

Wang Wan: "#@#￥"

Chun Yuyue looked at the intrigue of several big brothers, and felt really tired. Fortunately, he had no ambition to be in the top position, and had no entanglement with these insidious guys, otherwise he would not know how he died.

Ting Wei Meng Tian and doctor Ling Meng Yi stood together, separated from these groups of people.

The two of them grew up with His Majesty, and they are regarded as His Majesty's confidantes. Once they get close to these people, I am afraid that His Majesty's heart will be chilled.

Ye Teng naturally followed Yao Jia, because he followed Zhang He to make his fortune, and Yao Jia and Zhang He had the closest relationship, so it was no mistake to stand on Yao Jia's side.

The court is complicated, and once he stands in the wrong team, he will die without a place to bury him.

He was almost killed in South Korea, that is a lesson from the past.

Everyone stood together in twos and threes in the political hall, talking in low voices.

"quiet!"

Although Zhao Gao was disliked by Ying Zheng, he was still Ying Zheng's servant, managing Ying Zheng's food, clothing, housing, transportation, eating and drinking.

After Zhao Gao roared, Ying Zheng, wearing a black robe, a crown on his head, and boots, slowly entered through the gate.

Everyone bowed quickly, their eyes followed Ying Zheng, and slowly moved to the first place.

"The minister waits to pay homage to the king, the king is forever!"

All the ministers stood up neatly and began to salute.

Ying Zheng tidied up his clothes, knelt down and sat down slowly, then smiled and said, "Excuse me, gentlemen, please sit down."

Seeing the smile on Ying Zheng's face, the ministers became happy in their hearts. It seems that there is a happy event today and there is no need to be criticized.

"The widow summoned the ministers late at night. It is a big matter, and a strategy must be formulated immediately. Moreover, this matter is related to the three officials and nine ministers. Every functional department must be united in the whole country to do it well."

Ying Zheng cleared his throat, took out the urgent [-] miles sent by Zhang He, and said with a smile: "Just now, Zhang Qing sent a battle report from the northern Yunzhong City. Of the three counties, the widowed Daqin monopolizes two counties."

"There was a civil strife among the Huns. Touman's son, Maodun, returned to the grassland and seized the throne. Touman led the remnants of his troops into the depths of the desert. Li Mu sent out an army to pursue him. More than half of his cavalry was lost, and he has not returned yet..."

"A large number of Xiongnu prisoners of war are all transported to Xianyang, and they will arrive in a few days. Cattle, sheep, horses, and various grassland materials will be sold in Xianyang..."

boom!

After Ying Zheng finished speaking, the eyes of all the people present were glowing. They could already feel the smell of gunpowder. Daqin was about to start a war with Zhao. Because the north was settled, the alliance between Qin and Zhao was automatically eliminated.

Starting a war against Zhao also means that they will earn a lot of credit.

It's just that this is too fast, since Zhang He went north, it has only been three months since Zhang He and Li Mu put down the Huns in the north?

The Xiongnu in the north are all cavalry, and there are hundreds of thousands of them. How many troops does Zhang He have?

Li Mu only had [-] cavalry.

But the battle report cannot be faked!

Ying Zheng saw Zhu Qing's shocked appearance, and to be honest, he was also shocked. The Xiongnu had more than [-] cavalry, but Zhang Shangqing went north, and most of them were captured alive.

Moreover, the army led by Zhang Shangqing not only did not decrease in number, but increased in number, which made him wonder how Zhang He did it.

"Misters, the war to destroy Zhao was a grand strategy formulated by Daqin long ago. The alliance is only temporary, but the covenant has just been signed not long ago, and the war against Zhao will be launched immediately. This will damage Daqin's image in the hearts of the people in the Central Plains. This cannot be ignored. ..."

Ying Zheng stood up slowly, looked at all the ministers, and said, "Do you have a good strategy? You must go all out in the battle against Zhao."

Everyone below did not speak, and all began to meditate, their heads spinning rapidly, thinking of various good strategies.

Now to start a war against Zhao, there must be a reason enough to convince everyone in the world, the so-called famous teacher!

As the head of all the officials, Wang Wan thought it was inappropriate to start a war against Zhao at this moment, even if there were sufficient reasons. Daqin needed a year or two to recuperate.

The Qin State has been fighting for years, and others don't know about it. As the prime minister, he has a good understanding of Qin State's internal affairs.

In this winter, all the food stored in Daqin for a year has been eaten up, and if there is another war, the interior of Daqin will be emptied.

In the battle against Zhao, it's okay if you win the battle, but if you lose the battle, or if you can't attack for a long time, it will be troublesome.

"Your Majesty, I have this performance."

Ying Zheng glanced at Wang Wan: "Please tell me, Prime Minister."

"I thought it was impossible to start a war against Zhao for the time being."

Chapter 117

Everyone was stunned for a moment, but Ying Zheng's expression was calm, and he smiled lightly and said, "Why?"

Wang Wan bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, I have only one reason, the spring plowing is coming soon."

"My Daqin has 35 troops, but only 17 are full-time professional soldiers, [-] are part-time full-time soldiers, and the remaining [-] soldiers are all farmers."

"From the autumn harvest last year to the present five months, the 30 troops have been fighting or guarding the outside world, and have consumed nearly half of last year's output. In addition to the consumption of the construction of Shangdang County's eldest son arsenal, they can no longer support the next Fight against Zhao."

"I think that Qin must recuperate for two years before it can fight abroad."

After Ying Zheng listened, he nodded in satisfaction. What the prime minister said made sense, but it was only two years old, which was not what he expected.

Two years is too long!

Xiong Qi pondered for a long time, there is no chance of making mistakes if he does not act, but he is Prime Minister Zuo, he has to speak, and he came out and said: "Your Majesty, I second my proposal!"

Ying Zheng glanced at Xiong Qi and Wang Wan. These two guys usually don't urinate in the same jar, so why are they standing together today.

After listening to Wang Wan's suggestion, Yao Jia felt that what Wang Wan said made sense, but two years was too long.

"Your Majesty, the minister also seconded the proposal."

"It's just that the prime minister said that two years is too long. I thought that we only need to complete the spring plowing before we can go to war. The chance of fighting is fleeting. Li Mu is trapped in the north. This is the best time for Qin to use soldiers against Zhao."

Li Si came out and said: "Your Majesty, I also think that what the Prime Minister said is reasonable, but two years is too long. My Great Qin is resting and recuperating. Doesn't Zhao Guo not rest and recuperate?"

"What's more, Zhang Shangqing has captured quite a lot this time. According to statistics, the cattle and sheep that have gone south have exceeded 5, and the slaves of the Huns...the number of prisoners of war has exceeded [-]. With various fur treasures, they can support [-] soldiers for several months... ...This is also Zhang Shangqing's method of nourishing war with war."

Wang Wan immediately objected and said: "Feng Chang, this kind of warfare is acceptable for the Huns, but not for the Zhao State. The people of the Zhao State are the people of the Great Qin Dynasty in the future. Do we want to rob the people of the Zhao State as well?" Is it done?"

Li Si glanced at Wang Wan and said, "Prime Minister, please listen to my servant."

"Warning against Zhao is naturally not the same as fighting against the Xiongnu, but fighting against Zhao needs a reasonable reason to win over the hearts of the people of the world, and this reason requires a long-term plan, plus strategic deployment, material transportation, and personnel from all parties. , without three to five months, it is impossible to do it at all.”

"Therefore, I suggest that spring plowing can be completed during this period instead of taking two years."

After listening to Zhuqing's suggestion, Ying Zheng was very satisfied. This is the court of Daqin, and this is the right-hand man of the widow.

Hahaha, the widow has so many backbones of the country, why worry about the six kingdoms not being destroyed, why worry about the disunity of the world.

"There is no fallacy in the words of the prime minister, but the time is too long."

"As the saying goes, it is very in line with the wishes of the widow."

Ying Zheng stood up and said with a smile: "This matter is settled like this. The king regards the people as his heaven, and the people regard food as his heaven. Spring plowing must be completed."

Then Ying Zheng cupped his hands and said, "All ministers encourage each other!"

Zhang He mentioned something about Chun Geng in the battle report, and said what he said just now, Ying Zheng thought that Zhang He's words were very clever.

The ruler rules the world's subjects, and the subjects are the ruler's heaven, and the subjects will riot if they have no food to eat, and food is the lifeline of the subjects.

In a country, as long as there is enough food and the people are rich, they will support the ruler more. By doing so, the Great Qin Dynasty will be passed on for thousands of years.

Because Yingzheng knows very well that the decline of a country starts from within, regardless of Xia, Shang and Zhou.

The following ministers all fell into deep thought when they heard what the king said. After a while, all the ministers thought that what the king said was reasonable, and these words were even more deafening.

Your Majesty deserves to be your Majesty, every word you say casually is very far-sighted and worthy of everyone's deep thinking.

Now that this strategy has been decided for the time being, the spring plowing must be completed first, and then the war against Zhao must be started, so preparations must be started.

"Then Zhuqing thinks, next, what should Daqin do to prepare, and find an excuse to start a war against Zhao."

"Of course we must have the demeanor of a great country, and we must be famous for our teachers."

The left and right prime ministers pondered, Li Si pondered, and all the ministers began to ponder. Such things as making excuses require shameless people to come forward. Once such things are exposed, they may be stigmatized for thousands of years.

Yao Jia didn't care about these things, he stepped out first, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

Ying Zheng smiled and said, "Guo Wei, please tell me."

Yao Jia glanced at the ministers in embarrassment, and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, this matter is related to your reputation. Can you tell your Majesty alone."

The left and right prime ministers, including everyone, are angry. Guowei looks down on them. What is reputation?

All the ministers of the Humerus of the Great Qin Dynasty present, who would dare to disclose such news of the extermination of the genocide?

But no one dared to show it. If anyone dared to speak out today, if the news was leaked in the future, wouldn't it be impossible to clean up by jumping into the Yellow River?

Ying Zheng pondered for a moment, nodded, and asked the others if they had any plans?

But other people are people who cherish their feathers very much. Li Si wanted to say, use the king as a bait to trick Zhao's spies into assassinating, and then they can use soldiers against Zhao.

But thinking that this matter is too absurd, he will definitely be sprayed to death by the ministers!

He might even be beaten to death by the old Qin people, and finally keep silent. This is too risky.

Seeing that the rest of the people didn't want to be this villain, Ying Zheng had no choice but to retreat from the court and let the ministers start busy with spring plowing.

Only Yao Jia was left alone, and all the servants were dismissed at the same time.

"If the national captain has anything to say, just tell the widow. No one can know now, only us, the monarch and his ministers."

Yao Jia knelt on the ground with a thud, and shouted, "First, please forgive me for your great crime."

Ying Zheng squinted his eyes, but he didn't know what kind of medicine Yao Jia was selling in the gourd. He said with a smile, "Guowei please, I forgive you for your innocence, but it doesn't matter."

Yao Jia stood up and said, "The minister's plan has two aspects."

"First, everyone in the world must know that the three counties in the north have been restored, and the remnants of the Huns have been expelled from the north of Yinshan Mountain, and we must vigorously publicize the role of Qin in it. It can be said that this war against the Huns , is the war between the Qin State and the Xiongnu, as for Li Mu, it can be said that it is dispensable..."

"In order to prove the authenticity of this matter, all the things that Qin obtained from the grasslands must be sold to the six countries, and the nobles of Qin are not allowed to occupy them privately."

"As for the slaves, Zhang Shangqing said that all of them should be sold to the Korean nobles, and all the Korean nobles should speak out for Daqin, let them go to Sichuan and Sichuan to plant sugar cane, and then use the candy to earn the property of the nobles of the six countries."

"When the matter described above by the minister is completed, let the world know, then you can do the second thing that the minister said..."

"Didn't Zhao Wangqian send black-clothed guards to sneak into our Xianyang? Your Majesty can fool those people to come to assassinate..."

Ying Zheng trembled all over, Yao Jia, you let the widow be a bait?

"Your servant should die..."

Yao Jia knelt on the ground again. This suggestion is too bold. Your Majesty has something to do with the country, so how can you put yourself in danger?

Just now he was not out of face and reputation, nor was he afraid that everyone would reveal the secret, but he was afraid that everyone would attack him and beat him to death directly in the hall.

Ying Zheng's face was dark, and he put his own life at risk. If the assassin succeeds, wouldn't the widow end the game?

You black-hearted old guy, have you ever thought about the widow?

"However, the king doesn't need to go in person, you can find a substitute!"

Yingzheng's eyes lit up, this matter has a lot to do!

Assassinate the king of a country, why not go to war?

At that time, as long as the publicity is in place, the state of Zhao will be caught in a storm of public opinion, all the subjects of Great Qin will voluntarily go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and the public opinion of the six countries will also turn to Great Qin.
