I’m The King Chapter 1198: : Carrying forward the past and ushering in the future (eighty-eight) New Year’s bell (again)


On the way back to Shanggu from Huining, Li Mingjun's mood was completely relaxed. The previous anxiety and worry about the uncertainty of the future disappeared during the one-night in-depth conversation with Gao Yuan. He had to admit that King of Han Gao Yuan has the kind of feeling that you can't help but want to get close to him when you meet him, that kind of subtle, natural and easy-going, which makes people who get along with him feel like a spring breeze. They seem to be easy to get close to, easy-going superiors, but compared with Hanwang Gaoyuan, they can only be regarded as some poor performers.

What Hanwang Gaoyuan showed was something that was naturally deep in his bones, and he couldn't pretend it. At least Li Mingjun felt that if he pretended, he could definitely feel it.

The Western Zhao army will form an army, and the Eastern Zhao army will also form an army. It is impartial, and it can be regarded as the most fair explanation for the division of the two Zhaos. Of course, Zhou Changshou will enter the Dahan's political affairs hall and become one of the discussants. This is the reward for Zhou Changshou's work for the Dahan over the years, and the Western Zhaozhong people cannot compete or compare with him.

However, Li Mingjun doesn't feel much annoyed, because the political affairs in the political affairs hall of the big man are not as powerful as the chief assistants of other countries, not to mention that there are as many as five or six in the political affairs hall. Other than the superiors, everyone else is in charge of their own business, influencing and restraining each other. Zhou Changshou's entry into the Political Affairs Hall will not have too much impact on him and Zhao Xilie.

There are more than 200,000 troops and local guards that will be dismantled from Eastern Zhao and Western Zhao. These people are also what Li Mingjun is worried about. If they no longer serve as soldiers and eat food, these people may collapse and become bandits. He took a reassurance.

The people's livelihood and economy in Xizhao were severely damaged. A large number of young and strong were recruited as soldiers and forced to be civilian husbands, leaving a lot of fields barren. A large piece of land will be distributed free of charge, and the Dahan government will distribute seeds, farm tools, and livestock to them free of charge. Help them settle down and live and work in peace and contentment. The implementation of these policies has long been familiar to the officials of the Han Dynasty. They have been doing it since they started building Jishi City ten years ago.

Compared to Jishi County, which was completely barren for reclamation at that time, the land conditions in Zhao State are much better now. If you invest in that year, you will be rewarded in that year.

"Ming Jun, the plan for a year lies in spring, but this spring is coming soon, even though the sky is still full of ice and snow, and the cold wind is rustling, but in a few days, the spring will be warm and the flowers will bloom and everything will recover Yes, so we have to solve all the problems earlier. Let the people of Zhao State be able to manage this land with peace of mind. If the farming season is missed, it is a year of delay! My Great Han Dynasty has prepared a lot The seeds, agricultural tools, livestock, as soon as the New Year’s bell project is over, these things will be shipped at the fastest speed, so you have to plan earlier on your side, and start from your Shanggu County when the time comes.”

Thinking of Gao Yuan's words, Li Mingjun shook his fist vigorously. Next year, on this land, what I see will no longer be barren grass and loess, full of desolation. Instead, the green crops extend from the eyes to the horizon, which is the harvest, that is the hope, and it is the basis for the Zhao people to live a good life again.

Even if Zhao Guo is gone, as long as everyone lives better than before, then there will be no more. There have always been dynasties and dynasties, and history books are endless.

This time, the Han State supported tens of thousands of shi of grain. Not only can the army support it for a while, but it can also open porridge sheds to provide a way for the extremely poor and struggling civilians to survive. In these last days, everything will be fine.

Jinyang, Majiadian, where the Western Zhao Jinyang garrison is located.

As the exercise order was issued, troops stationed in various places in Jinyang came here in an endless stream. The tents stretched for more than ten miles. The entire Majiadian area was under martial law. The entire Majiadian was in a tense atmosphere.

In the camp of the Chinese army, Zhao Xilie looked at the generals under his command with a stern face, and said in a deep voice: "The plan has been launched, and there is no turning back when the bow is fired. Brothers, whether we live or die depends on whether we can go well." I have successfully completed the New Year’s Bell Project this time, and now I order that the second step of the New Year’s Bell Project, clearing out the traitors, begins.”

"I obey!" A dozen generals suddenly stood up, bowed to Zhao Xilie, turned around and strode out of the tent of the Chinese army, got on their horses, and walked towards their troops.

"Let's start with the Chinese army too!" Zhao Xilie sat down slowly and waved his hand.

The people of Qin State have placed people in the Zhao army, and they are called liaison envoys to facilitate the communication between the Qin army and the Zhao army and to facilitate joint operations. In fact, they are spies who monitor Zhao army's movements. The next action is smooth and sudden, so these people must be removed, and these people on the bright side are easy to deal with. The key is that Zhao Xilie doesn't know how many traitors these Qin liaison envoys have developed in the Zhao army. Qin people are very defensive, but the spies inside themselves are hard to guard against.

"General Zhao, don't worry too much." Cao Tianci, who was wearing a personal guard uniform, said to Zhao Xilie with a smile, "You have counted most of the spies and spies here. If you cast this net, there will be one out of ten who will be caught. And those who escaped by chance, there are nothing more than two ways out, one is to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and take this opportunity to get rid of the Qin people; The New Year's Bell plan is an excellent move. The barracks are all under martial law. Outsiders don't know what's going on inside the barracks. If these spies want to report the news, they have to sneak out of the barracks. I've already cast another net around the perimeter. Anyone who goes out from here has only one word, die!"

"Any perfect defense will have its loopholes. We can't defeat everything. How can I not worry, as long as one person absconds to send a letter, our plan will face disaster, Minister Cao, Lu Bin's Qin army is only tens of miles away from Jinyang City. Once they get the news and enter Jinyang City ahead of us, the New Year's bell plan will fail. What I am most worried about now is Jinyang In the city, there are only 3,000 people in your department, but you have to face 5,000 Qin troops. Once the city fails, everything will be over."

"Don't worry, I have always had great confidence in the fighting power of our Han army." Cao Tianci said with a smile on his face. There are not only Mu Qiu's 3,000 troops in the city, Yi Bin's National Security Bureau action team has already sneaked into the city.

In the big camp, not far from the camp of the Chinese army, Jintan was enjoying a plate of Zorgen with pig's ears and drinking some wine. The steaming fine wine was poured out of the copper pot nestled in the brazier, and after a sip, it became hot from the depths of the dantian to the top of the head, as a special group of people in Zhao Jun. His treatment has always been special. Even in the most difficult times, there is no shortage of good wine and food here. Of course, wine should be the best.

His mission. It is to monitor the movement of the entire Zhao army. For this exercise, Zhao Xilie has indeed informed him, but in his opinion, this is completely unnecessary. With Zhao Jun's current ability, even if he exercises every day, his combat effectiveness can So high there, the only reason for their existence is to maintain the pressure on the common people in the country. It is enough to plunder more resources for Qin from the territory that Xizhao still controls. In China, it is wishful thinking to obtain such enjoyment with one's own position.

Thinking of this, Jin Tan couldn't help feeling that Xi Zhao was allowed to exist for a while. It is also a good thing, at least for me, my work in Zhao Jun is still very effective, and I have developed a network to effectively monitor Zhao Jun. These Zhao people were often in arrears of wages and lack of supplies, so it was too easy to buy them off. Throwing a few bones to them was enough to make them fall in front of him. The only fly in the ointment was. I have never opened a crack in the top ranks of the army. Almost all the people Zhao Xilie uses are inextricably linked with him. These people are either blood related to Zhao Xilie or brotherly. It was very difficult to buy. After bumping into a wall a few times and being teased several times by Zhao Xilie, Jin Tan gave up this effort and turned around to find a way at the middle and lower levels. With these people, the effect is the same.

Picking up a pig's ear with chopsticks, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed happily.

The curtain was lifted abruptly, and a gust of cold wind rushed in, causing Jin Tan to shudder involuntarily. Just as he was about to curse, his pupils shrank suddenly. With the cold wind rushing in, They are four fully armed Zhao soldiers, they are Zhao Xilie's personal guards.

"What do you want to do?" Seeing the steel knives unsheathed in the hands of the four people, and a short riding crossbow in the other hand, Jin Tanse shouted sternly.

The four of them took a step forward, and a tall man walked in with a gust of cold wind, walked up to Jin Tan, pulled a small stool and sat down.

"Let me introduce myself, my name is Niu Teng, and I am currently working in the Dahan National Security Bureau." The visitor said with a smile, grabbed the chopsticks from the dumbfounded Jin Tan, and stuffed them with a small vegetable. Put it into your mouth and chew it with gusto.

"Han, National Security Bureau, Niu Teng?" Jin Tan widened his eyes and looked at the guy in front of him who claimed to be from the family, and looked at the four armed soldiers of Zhao Xilie who were staring at him. Got it all.

"Zhao Xilie betrayed Daqin!" He yelled ~IndoMTL.com~ Niu Teng laughed: "What are you shouting, what is this place, it's an army camp, you just broke your throat No one came to rescue you. Hey, Jin Liaison, why are your hands shaking?"

Jin Tan was shaking not only his hands, but his whole body.

Poured himself a glass of wine from the small copper pot by the stove, and Niu Teng drank it all in one gulp: "Jin Liaison Envoy, we can be regarded as colleagues in the same way, and you know the methods of our business if you think about it." Yes, give me what I want, you can live, if you want to be a hero, I don't mind giving you this chance."

Niu Teng looked back at a few soldiers, and said with a smile: "When I was in the black mountains and white waters of Donghu, I had nothing to eat for a while. In order to survive, we once slaughtered some vain soldiers. After the guys who wanted to kill us, we roasted and ate those guys, do you know where the best food is on people?"

The faces of several soldiers turned pale.

Niu Teng smiled, turned his wrist, and a very thin knife appeared in his hand, "If this Jin Liaison Envoy acts as a hero today, I can show off my skills and let you learn a lot. Fresh." While talking, Niu Teng took out a few paper bags from his arms, "This is the condiment I brought from Dahan, and it's specially used for barbecue."

Jin Tan watched the other party's malicious eyes always turn around a certain part of his body, and finally broke down, "What do you want?"

"The offlines you developed in Zhao Jun, don't you ask knowingly?" (To be continued.)
