I’m The King Chapter 1195: : Carrying forward the past and ushering in the future (eighty-five) New Year’s bell (again)


Until he could no longer see Qin Jun's camp, Zhao Qi suddenly stopped his horse and turned to look at his son Zhao Xilie angrily.

"How can you make up your own mind?"

Zhao Xilie looked at his father, pretending to be surprised: "Father, what are you talking about?"

"Exercise, exercise!" Seeing his son's attitude, Zhao Qi was furious, "Do you know how much food is needed to organize an exercise of more than 100,000 people? How much reward money is needed? This is just a routine If you count other expenses, wouldn’t it be impossible to get it without hundreds of thousands of taels of silver?”

"Of course I know." Zhao Xilie said indifferently: "But father, you have also seen that Lu Chao thinks that Han has no intention of using force against us. Is it necessary to do this? To show the Han people their military power and their ability to fight, I think this is necessary. We are always short of money, if we squeeze, we can still get out.”

"If you're not in charge of a family, you don't know how expensive it is. If you have the ability, come and see." Zhao Qi said angrily.

"Father will provide me with half of what I need, and I will figure out the rest." Zhao Xilie said, "Father, in fact, my purpose of this exercise is to show the Han people first, and secondly, to let Lu Chao Take a look, even though my big Zhao is in peace now, he is not someone who can be bullied if he wants to. If he provokes me, he will still give him a good look. With 20,000 people, he will sway his nose and face. Let's see it as a human being."

"Don't act recklessly." Zhao Qi looked at his cousin's angry son, with a hint of panic in his voice, "The reason why we can still exist is because Daqin still needs us. If Chao said, we are finished. You should know Lu Chao's background, not to mention that he is now the commander of the Qin State, his master alone is enough to control the government. What about Fan Sui, the chief assistant of the Great Qin Dynasty? If you offend them, you will be punished He was dispatched to serve in the army. That is the Minister of Gu Ming appointed by King Qin Wulie before his death!"

Zhao Xilie sighed and nodded silently.

"Be careful, the people of Qin must not be offended now. After I go back, I will find a way to collect materials and silver. I hope that I can satisfy Lu Chao."

Looking at the somewhat hunched back of his father who was riding the horse forward slowly, Zhao Xilie felt sad, but at the same time he couldn't help being a little disappointed. His father was no longer as decisive as he used to be. Li Mingjun is right to say that he is a hero who doesn't even frown when he does things. He must not reveal anything to his father about what he is doing now, otherwise it will definitely be a tragedy.

Father may still imagine that the Qin people will definitely protect him, but Zhao Xilie has understood through Lu Chao's attitude towards their father and son today that this is just his father's wishful thinking. He will report to the Qin people, thinking that in this way the Zhao family can be saved. But the final outcome will be exactly the opposite.

The people of Qin will take down the Zhao family without hesitation, and then formally annex Xizhao, or find another puppet to come out. Is this a difficult thing?

Lu Chao has no respect for his father, maybe in his eyes, his father and son are just a dog in front of him.

I can only blame my father afterwards, and let the matter be done first. Zhao Xilie finally made the final decision in his heart.

The spurs tapped on the horse's belly, Zhao Xilie caught up with his father, and said: "Father, this exercise. I want to pull out the city guards in the city to practice. They are the most elite in our army." It's the best one to play, but if you don't practice for a long time, I'm afraid it will be abandoned. This is the capital for our father and son to save our lives."

Zhao Qi said wearily: "You are in charge of the exercise. If you want to do it, you have to do it well. If you want to pull out the city guards, pull them out. But what about the guards in the city? Are you going to leave it to the Qin people?"

"Of course not, I'll call in some more people. There are many people in the left and right armies who can't go to the battlefield at all, and they usually eat and die in the army. Boss, we send the most elite army and the least army, in their eyes they are the same." Zhao Xilie laughed at himself: "In their eyes, we are all trash."

"You decide for yourself." Zhao Qi waved his hand. At this time, his mind was almost entirely thinking about where to get that astronomical amount of supplies to satisfy Lu Chao's greed. In the account, the threatening meaning inside and outside the words of the other party is already very strong.

Majiadian, Zhao Xilie's camp, more than a dozen high-ranking generals of Western Zhao are sitting around a pile of fire, there is no smokeless charcoal, these good things have to be sent to the people of Qin, dignified General, now we can only get some firewood to burn. Even though the soldiers tried their best to get some dry firewood, they burned in the tent, and the airtight space was still full of smoke. Lingering, but no one in the big tent cares about these things at this time. First, they are used to it. Second, it is also because of the importance of this meeting. Whether they go left or right will determine their future and life.

"Brothers, you have been with me for many years. You are the people I trust the most. I brought you here today. In fact, I also handed over my wealth and life to you. I have decided not to do anything with the people of Qin. Don't let them be bulls and horses, let them drive me, I want to take a gamble for the future of our big guys, take a gamble, if you win, everyone still has a bright future, if you lose, I, Zhao Xilie, must be A dead word, the Zhao family is also a dead word. Of course, if you follow me, it is also a dead word. Today, I have brought you here just to ask if you are willing to follow me or not. It's not too much, and I won't do anything to you, but I will lock you up until the matter is over, and when we win, I will let you leave safely. Of course, when that time comes, we will naturally You are no longer brothers, if we lose, you will be popular in front of Qin people, and naturally you will break with us." Zhao Xilie said loudly.

"Do it, of course." A bearded general with a stern face jumped up all of a sudden, his fists clenching, "Look at what kind of life we ​​are living now. To tell you the truth, just A few days ago, I went back to Jinyang City and went to a restaurant. I wanted to have a good drink. Damn, I was bullied by a general from Qin. I ran away When I went back, I naturally didn't want others to know, so I booked a private room, but in the end, it was forcibly occupied by a general of the Qin army. The team was kicked out by a small general from the Qin people. What is shameless? This is called shameless. Why are you so arrogant? If I didn't want to not cause trouble for the general, I would have chopped him up at that time Already."

Listening to the complaints of the bearded general, Zhao Xilie said with a dark face: "What are you? My lungs are about to explode."

"It's done, how are we going to live these days? We cut down on food and clothing, and even the generals live with their stomachs strangled. Even a small soldier from Qin can live more comfortably than us. In Jinyang City, as long as there is a dispute between the two sides, the **** will We are the ones who suffer. In this year, twenty-seven brothers of Laozi’s city guards were executed because of this, and the brothers can’t bear it anymore.” Zhao Che, the commander of the Jinyang City Guards who came here on a special trip, also said the same thing. His face was full of anger, "Master Zhao wants me to bear it every time and take the overall situation into consideration. When will this be a head? If this continues, the city guards will no longer recognize me as a commander, saying that I am useless and a coward, isn't it? I don’t know that Lao Tzu suffers much more than them.”

The resentment in the tent became more and more intense after several people's speeches. Zhao Xilie stood up and glanced at everyone, "Everyone, Mr. Zhao said what he said first. At this time, some people quit, although they are no longer brothers. But I will never take your life, but after this time, if anyone betrays again, then don't blame me for being cruel."

No one said anything in the tent.

"Okay, then everyone will pass." Zhao Xilie said loudly, waving his arms.

"General, I have a few words to say, may I please?" A veteran stood up and said.

"General Wang Gui, you are an old man. When I first joined the army, I was an officer under you. If you have anything to say, just talk about it." Zhao Xilie laughed.

"If you rebel against the Qin people, this must be done~IndoMTL.com~ There is nothing wrong with that, but I want to ask the general, what should we do after rebelling against the Qin people? Now we are against the Han people, and the east has been The Han people have merged, and if we fight against the Qin people again, we will be attacked on both sides. With our strength, we may be defeated within a few days. Does the general have any proper arrangements for this?"

"General Wang is a good question. Now I want to introduce someone to everyone. After meeting him, everyone's worries will naturally be relieved." Zhao Xilie smiled.

As Zhao Xilie's voice fell to the ground, the curtain of the Chinese army's tent was lifted, and a young figure came out from inside. He smiled, clasped his fists in his hands, and bowed to everyone, "Generals, Cao Tianci is very polite. Already."

Cao Tianci! There was a sound of exclamation in the big tent. Cao Tianci, the former dean of the Overwatch Council of the Han Dynasty, the current police minister, and Gao Yuan's hard-core confidant, unexpectedly appeared here. It is no wonder that General Zhao is so confident. Got in touch.

"Welcome everyone to join the Han Dynasty. Here, on behalf of the king, I would like to express my attitude to you. After joining the Han Dynasty, everyone's positions will not change. Of course, if you don't want to lead the army, you can also choose voluntarily. Where to go, in a word, those who are willing to stay, still bring your soldiers, those who don’t want to stay, the vast territory of the Han Dynasty, where you want to go, you can go to any scenic spot."
