I’m The King Chapter 913: :Huanghuang Hanwei (Thirty Seven)

If there is no money, there will always be people. The words He Lanxiong uttered lightly, to ordinary people, represent the destruction of their families, leaving their homes, and countless blood and corpses. But the people present, But no one has any meaning. Population is the cornerstone of a country. Zhengdong Mansion now controls a vast area, but the most troublesome thing for the high-level is that most of the areas, such as Jishi County, Dayan County, and Hetao County on the prairie. The counties and the newly conquered Donghu area are all sparsely populated. Among these counties, except for Jishi County, which is now the political and economic center of Zhengdong Prefecture, which is in a better situation, the other places are extremely short of population. .

Plundering the enemy's population, although violent, is the simplest and most direct method. While enhancing one's own strength, it is also indirectly depriving the enemy of their potential. The impact is extremely far-reaching.

What's more, in the eyes of the generals of the Zhengdong Mansion in this big tent, if these Qin people are taken away, they may hate the Zhengdong Army in a short period of time, but after a long time, I'm afraid they will still return. I will be grateful for inexplicable, although the Qin State is strong, but it is strong in the country, the life of the common people is really not easy, heavy taxes, harsh laws, the pressure of ordinary people can not straighten up, want to get ahead, the only The only way out is to join the army, go to the battlefield with knives and guns to fight for a chance to stand out, but this also represents the risk of exhaustion. Once a general succeeds in success, a general who has successfully fought from the bottom will die under his feet. , is ten times a hundred times or even a thousand times the blood and corpses of colleagues. Qin Guochao magnified the deeds of these successful people, but consciously ignored those stepping stones.

Don't you see, in Shannan County, those Qin people who were in panic all day long no longer recognize themselves as Qin people, but only call themselves Shannan County people, are they people under the jurisdiction of Zhengdong Mansion?

Three days later, Gongsun Yi's independent cavalry division arrived, and the more than 15,000 cavalrymen were immediately divided into several teams to attack everywhere and go deep into the countryside. A rope was tied and led back to the barracks. In just a few days, nearly 30,000 Qin people were captured from the barracks of the Eastern Army.

Zhao Yong's Daijun soldiers became the transportation team to **** these Qin people. There is no condition to talk about. These Qin people were driven by Daijun soldiers to go deep into the grassland. They will be sent to the Liaodong Peninsula Resettlement, the Liaodong Peninsula has been under the rule of the Donghu for many years, and the ethnic composition is complex. Where the Han people were in a low status before, almost most of them were slaves. This situation is naturally not conducive to the rule of the Zhengdong Mansion. Almost all the counties are short of people. Although Gao Yuan ordered the counties to immigrate there according to a certain proportion, this order was resisted by his subordinates quietly, which made this order almost exist in name only, and also forced Gao Yuan to secretly order He Lanxiong to rob the population. To enrich the Liaodong Peninsula.

Tens of thousands of cavalry from the East Conquest Army were raging in Jiuyuan County. Although Wang Jian in Jiuyuan County had his steel teeth crushed, he could do nothing. It is defending the city, but it is also powerless. I don’t know why the East Conquering Army did not attack the city, but naturally Wang Jian would not go out of the city to die. He stood at the top of the city every day, watching more and more Qin people being driven out. She rushed into the barracks of the Eastern Army like a sheep, and then set off to a farther place. There was almost nothing she could do except cursing.

The disastrous defeat of Jiuyuan County, and the plundering behavior of the Eastern Zheng Army in Jiuyuan County finally made Qin Ting alert. Qin Ting began to step up the intensity of mobilizing reinforcements. The county is approaching. After detecting this information, the Eastern Expeditionary Army also stopped the robbery and began to prepare for war.

At this time, the Zhengdong Army has gathered nearly 100,000 soldiers in the direction of Jiuyuan County, Feng Fayong has 20,000 Shannan County soldiers, Zhao Yong has 30,000 Dai County soldiers, He Lanxiong has more than 30,000 troops, and the Northern Army Gongsun Yi The Independent Cavalry Division of the Qing Dynasty has more than 15,000 cavalrymen. From all aspects, it seems that the Eastern Expedition Army is going to launch an all-out war against the Qin people in Jiuyuan County.

The Qin court was completely unprepared for this. Lu Chao's sudden advance in Fengcheng invaded the border of Yan State, and ambushed and wiped out more than 5,000 people from the Naha Division of the Zhengdong Army. Not many people in the entire court knew about the king's secret order to test whether the East Conquering Army still had the strength to fight. Even the emperor Li Ru was kept in the dark. The consequences of this risky and aggressive strategy Much to the surprise of King Wulie of Qin, Gao Yuan's strong reaction and tough response put Qin into a difficult situation.

Li Xin has assembled hundreds of thousands of troops at Hangu Pass, but facing him is Zhao Guo with most of the Zhao army led by Jing Rufeng, and Meng Tian is also stationed at the border of Qin and Chu. Ha, but where is the war potential of this country? If it is fully mobilized, it is not impossible for this country to pull out an army of millions of people. Naturally, Meng Tian dare not move a little bit. Lu Chao, the army of the Qin army The number is not large, only tens of thousands, but these tens of thousands are also extremely elite troops of the Qin army, supplemented by troops conscripted from Han, they were involved by the Wei and Zhao coalition forces, and now they are also facing the attack of the Eastern Zheng army. During this period, Qin State unexpectedly had no strong troops to dispatch. Faced with this situation, the Qin people issued an emergency mobilization order to recruit soldiers, and at the same time began to discuss how to deal with the current crisis.

Unknowingly, Zhengdong Mansion, State of Zhao, and State of Wei formed an alliance against the Qin army, and when these three countries gathered all their strength to fight against the Qin people, the Qin people immediately turned against it. I feel that it is difficult. If the Chu people see the flaws and come to plug in, the Qin people will not be able to unify the Central Plains, but the question of whether the country will perish.

There was a lot of quarreling in the court, and finally one opinion became the mainstream. They negotiated a peace with the Zhengdong Army, called Lu Chao, and punished him for his provocative behavior in exchange for a peace with the Zhengdong Army. Reconciliation, just looking at the restrained military actions of the Zhengdong Army in Jiuyuan County, we can see that the Zhengdong Army did not want to turn against the Qin Army at this time, and a big war broke out to benefit Wei and Zhao.

But this is only one of the possibilities. In Qin Guochaotang's view, Gao Yuan is young and has a good face. Gao Yuan, who has been invincible in the past, suffered a big loss this time. He is young and energetic and will be eager to take revenge. It is possible to trigger a big battle between the two sides, otherwise Zhengdong Mansion would not have deployed an army of 100,000 in the direction of Jiuyuan County.

As for the price to be paid this time to quell the turmoil, it depends on the bargaining between the two sides at the negotiating table. The final result of the discussion is that the country must actively prepare for war to meet unexpected needs. The negotiating team led by Fan Sui went to Fengcheng to start negotiations with Gao Yuan, so as to end this sudden turmoil as soon as possible.

Fengcheng, Lu Chao stood at the top of the city, looking at the banner of the Eastern Zheng Army waving in the distance, the high-character banner flying on the highest point, flaunting its might and waving in the wind, looked particularly dazzling.

Gao Yuan's personal conquest came with him, the other three divisions of his direct descendant's Young Guards Army. Although their strength was less than 20,000, the combat effectiveness of these 20,000 was far beyond what his current subordinates could achieve. Compared with the changes in the battle situation from the direction of Jiuyuan County, Lu Chao has realized that King Qin Wulie's big gamble this time has completely failed.

But it is impossible for the king to stand up and take responsibility. This blame must be borne by himself. Lu Chao does not have much dissatisfaction. His own selfishness also played a lot of roles in it, which can make Gao Yuan unhappy and make him uncomfortable, so Lu Chao is very motivated.

The news from Xianyang has already confirmed his guess. Lu Chao felt extremely regretful when he thought that he was about to leave the front line and thus lacked a direct confrontation with Gao Yuan.

"I'll be back!" He suddenly stretched out his arm, pointing flatly at the tall flag fluttering in the distance, and said sharply.

Gongsunying next to Lu Chao looked extremely nervous. Of course he knew that the court of Qin State had already decided to punish Lu Chao. The charge was that Lu Chao provoked without authorization. , if Lu Chao is unlucky, how can the Gongsun family be better? In the eyes of others, the Gongsun family is a big piece of fat. In the past, Lu Chao was under the cover, so naturally no one would dare to take their ideas, but now Lu Chao is alone. If the tree falls and the monkeys scatter, the Gongsun family will also be unlucky.

"General, is there no room for this matter to turn around? We can spend a lot of money to bribe the civil and military officials in Xianyang, don't ignore it, as long as the general can stay here!" Gongsunying whispered.

Lu Chao glanced at Gongsunying, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, this matter is not a problem that money can solve, if money can solve the problem, how can it be called a problem here?

"What are you afraid of?" Lu Chao asked. "Afraid that if I fall down, someone will harm your Gongsun family?"

Gongsunying lowered his head and remained silent.

"Don't worry, I'm just out of danger this time. Even if something happens to me, the teacher won't look at my relatives. Don't think so much, just do your things well with your heart, that's all. The best talisman, don't let others take advantage of it." Lu Chao said.

"The general is right."

"This time when I go back to Xianyang, I will take my mother and Yan'er away." Lu Chao said: "The house I bought in Xianyang has been vacant for several years, and it is time to welcome back their masters."

Gou Yi trotted all the way to Lu Chao's side from below, and whispered: "General, Fan Shoufu and the others have already arrived outside Fengcheng."

Lu Chao nodded: "Let's go, let's meet Mr. Shoufu!"

"However, there are people from the Black Ice Terrace accompanying him, and the leader is Tan Feng." Gou Yi's eyes flashed with anger.

"Tan Feng! He led the team?" Lu Chao's eyes showed surprise for the first time, and then he laughed, "It turned out that he was the one who escorted me back to Xianyang this time, which is really interesting .Interesting!" (to be continued)
