The Jagged Empire of Daqin
Page 124
"Your Majesty would like to follow His Majesty's instructions!" Qi Qi, who was extremely speechless, bowed down and shouted.
"Your Majesty, do you agree with the marriage between Yan and Jin?" Zhang Feizi didn't have any interest in talking nonsense with Emperor Yan, and went straight to the point.
"Of course, of course I agree. How can I disagree with such a good reason for sending the concubine to send troops!" Yan Diliu said with a blushing face.
Send concubine?
The eyes of civil and military officials became strange, and Zhang Feizi couldn't help but cast another glance at Yan Diliu.
Emperor Jin and Emperor Yan are about the same age. According to common sense, the princess of the Jin Empire should marry the prince of the Yan Empire, but according to what Emperor Yan said, he is going to do it himself!

Chapter 312: The Ministry of War Comes!
??
Hey~
Zhang Feizi sighed again in his heart, and really wanted to tell Yan Diliu, what would people in the Jin Empire think of you getting on the horse yourself?Do you feel that the Yan Empire has humiliated the Jin Empire, and that you still have to call Emperor Jin your father?Seniority is messed up.
What a careless emperor.
Although Zhang Feizi really wanted to say this, he still didn't want to spend too much time talking about it. If Zhang Feizi didn't say anything, the rest of the officials would not say anything. Anyway, the Jin Empire is a weak Jin Dynasty, so they have to bear it no matter how uncomfortable they are.
Marriage with Jin not only happened in the three empires of Yan, Zhao, and Qi, but also in the Han Empire, the Great Chu Empire, and the Great Xia Empire. Except for the Great Qi Empire that refused the Great Jin Empire's marriage, the other five countries agreed to marry Jin. Intending to lock up the Great Qin Empire!
Time passed slowly, and the days passed day by day. When the autumn harvest came, the people of Daqin were all happy, because it was another bumper harvest year, and it was still a bumper harvest!
"Once the grain is harvested this year, there will be no shortage of food and drink for two years!"
"It's really strange. After our Majesty regained the imperial power, our Daqin harvested continuously and didn't stop for a year. My Majesty the Great Qin Emperor is the real Son of Heaven, blessed by the heavens!"
"Yeah yeah!"
"Our real good days are yet to come!"
"After the autumn harvest, I have to take my son to cultivate more than ten acres of land, so as to plant a little more land for future generations, so that they will not be like me in the future, busy opening up wasteland and farming every year!"
"Yes, I plan to open 50 acres of fertile land in my lifetime, and be awarded the title of official farmer. In this way, I can get countless grains every year, and I can also receive [-] taels of silver. The future generations will really enjoy it. It is a great blessing! !"
"Why shouldn't I be born a few decades later, so that I can sit under a big tree and enjoy the shade!"
"Haha, Lao Li, don't think about this, work hard, and strive to get more land for your children and grandchildren. You can't run away from the land, it's a real thing!"
The people who are farming in the fields are harvesting the crops while chatting and laughing with other people. Every person has a bright smile on their faces. The children who come to the fields with adults are in the fields with their friends It's so fun to play in the room!
The sound of laughter and joy filled the world of the Great Qin Empire, presenting a magnificent and prosperous scene.
The time came to the first day of the first month of the 12th year of Shengqin, which corresponds to the first day of the first month of the year 82 in the Kyushu calendar. This day is the New Year of the people of Kyushu. Firecrackers rang out in the prosperous country, and businessmen who traveled thousands of miles hurried back to their hometowns. Have a New Year's dinner with your loved ones.
There is no sound of firecrackers in the country in troubled times, only the sound of gold and iron, and the scene of flying flesh and blood. Countless people fled their homes with empty stomachs and went to unknown places...
Hebei border camp, handsome account!
In the left side of the handsome tent, there is a large sand table nine feet long and three feet wide. On the sand table, there are wooden mini white tents and miniature Qin army flags. The mini camps are all over the sand table, and the Qin army flag Inserted on the edge of the Great Wall pass in the sand table.
The former represents the Xiongnu tribe, and the latter is of course the Qin army!
It has been six months since the last war with the Xiongnu. During these six months, the soldiers of the Great Wall have been on vacation in batches. One batch of 1 people has been released. Now the sixth batch has been released, and they are waiting for the sixth batch of soldiers to return to Great Wall. camp.
On the days when the soldiers were on vacation, Du Changjing did not take time off. He dispatched all the scouts from the scout battalion to investigate the positions of the Huns in the Bailan Prairie and prepare for the next sweep. After six months of hard work, the Huns in the Bailan Prairie The location of each department was finally found out, and Du Changjing ordered people to make a big sand table.
Both Du Changjing and Zhao Hua were surrounded by the sand table, both of them were wearing armor, with long swords hanging on their waists, staring at the sand table thoughtfully, after an unknown amount of time, Zhao Hua raised his head and glanced at The capital Changjing then opened his mouth and said:
"General, the military leave of the soldiers will end soon. It will only take about a month before the last batch of soldiers on leave will return to the camp. What the general wants to ask at the end is, what should we do next after the soldiers return to the camp? Will?"
Du Changjing stared intently at the sand table, and upon hearing Zhao Hua's question, he replied indifferently: "The imperial court means that we will wait until all the false soldiers return before making any plans. Later, I will write to the imperial court to ask for instructions on the next step! "
"According to the current situation, His Majesty will definitely continue to fight, so we must be prepared to sweep the Bailan Prairie. The training of each battalion must not be slack. In addition, the generals at all levels must also suppress the arrogance of the soldiers. Careless about being annihilated by the Huns!"
"Understood!" Zhao Hua nodded solemnly.
Du Changjing’s last advice hit the nail on the head. The Qin army’s three major defeats against the Huns will inevitably lead to conceited minds in the soldiers. Confidence is a good thing, but conceit is definitely not a good thing. It may lead to the annihilation of the entire army because of conceit.
"What happened to our seriously wounded soldiers on the Great Wall in northern Shanxi?" Du Changjing suddenly asked.
As soon as the seriously injured soldiers were mentioned, Zhao Hua showed a trace of pain on his face, and then sighed: "Six thousand seriously injured brothers died, and two thousand seriously injured brothers have stabilized their injuries. Go home!"
Du Changjing looked up at Zhao Hua, remained silent for a while, and then said expressionlessly: "You don't need to grieve, and you don't need to lament. The battlefield is like this. Fortunately, they are seriously injured soldiers of Daqin. You can also receive a lot of comfort money!"
"They are all brothers who went to the battlefield together, so there is no reason for it not to hurt!" Zhao Hua couldn't help retorting.
"You haven't experienced enough!" Du Changjing said softly.
Zhao Hua stopped talking, indeed, as Du Changjing said, his experience is indeed not enough, not counting the return of the Qin army to attack the Jin army, he only participated in three wars.
Maybe after experiencing too many battlefields, they will ignore the living beings.
"Report!"
In vain at this time, there was a shout from outside the account!
"Come in!" Du Changjing responded immediately.
As soon as the words fell, a soldier in black chain mail opened the curtain and walked towards the left side of the tent step by step. When he was three steps away from Du Changjing and Zhao Hua, he knelt down on one knee with a respectful expression. Dizuo compiled a report: "General, there are hundreds of large-scale convoys outside the camp. The leader is about 30 years old, wearing a third-rank official uniform, and claims to be Miao Chun, the right servant of the Ministry of War!"
Zhao Hua was taken aback for a moment, and said in a dumb voice: "The Ministry of War is here? Why did the Ministry of War come here suddenly?"
The imperial court has a convoy coming over, and it is understandable that it should be transporting this year's military rations, but isn't this a matter of the Ministry of Household Affairs?Why is it the turn of the Ministry of War this year, and the third-rank servant is personally leading the team.
PS: "Please recommend a ticket, ask for a monthly ticket, and ask for a full order!"
Chapter 313 New Weapon Arrives at the Great Wall Camp!
Fadao reminds you: ask for collection () after reading, and it is more convenient to read again.
Du Changjing showed a smile on his face, "I will know what's going on, let's go, go and greet me!"
A month ago, he received a document from the Ministry of War, saying that a batch of new standard weapons had been sent over, but he never said anything about it, so Zhao Hua didn't know about it.
"Ah?" Zhao Hua was stunned again, why did he feel so mysterious.
Confused, Zhao Hua followed Du Changjing closely and left the command tent, and walked towards Yingkou. At the same time, Miao Chun, the right servant of the Ministry of War, showed the official seal and documents, and ordered the soldiers guarding Yingkou to let go of their spurs and let the Ministry of War The convoy enters camp.
The configuration of the fleet of the Ministry of War is very shabby. There are no heavy troops accompanying it. There are only a hundred officers and soldiers and more than [-] elderly people. The officers and soldiers are responsible for protecting the convoy, and the common people are responsible for pulling the carts. The car needs to be paid, and the labor fee is settled according to the distance.
Xianyang City is 16 miles away from the North Qin Great Wall, one tael per 16 miles, [-] taels for [-] miles, [-] taels for one round trip, food and drink included, it takes four months, and you can earn [-] taels in four months, It is definitely a high salary, and ordinary people can laugh all night if they grab this kind of job.
Watching the wooden carts pouring into the camp, it immediately attracted many soldiers who were training, because the wooden carts were full of wooden boxes, which didn't look like food or wine, so they couldn't help being full of enthusiasm for the things on the wooden carts. Curiosity, after all, people are curious about the unknown.
At this time, Du Changjing and Zhao Hua also came over. Miao Chun, the right servant of the Ministry of War, saw Du Changjing and Zhao Hua approaching, immediately jumped off his horse, and walked towards the two with a respectful expression. When the distance between the two was less than five steps, Du Changjing, Zhao Hua, and Miao Chun tacitly stopped.
"Miao Chun, the right servant of the Ministry of War, has met the Hushi General, General Zhao Lie!" Miao Chun bowed and saluted with a very respectful expression.
He is a newly appointed official who was promoted from the bottom and is Yang Ze's confidant.
Du Changjing and Zhao Hua immediately raised their hands to return the salute. Although Du Changjing's official is older than Miao Chun's, it is basic etiquette to salute regardless of whether the official is big or small.
"Come all the way, thank you Master Miao!" Du Changjing said with a calm smile.
"Being able to deliver things to the generals of the Great Qin Dynasty is a blessing for the lower officials. Would you like to check the new weapons now?" Miao Chun said with a red face, pointing to the box on the wooden cart.
"New weapons?"
Zhao Hua was stunned again, and then showed a look of sudden realization, and finally knew the reason why the minister of the Ministry of War personally escorted the cart, it turned out that he had brought the equipment.
"Of course, I've been looking forward to it for a long time!" Du Changjing smiled faintly, then walked towards the wooden cart, Zhao Hua and Miao Chun followed closely behind.
Du Changjing was both looking forward to and curious about this batch of new weapons, because the documents sent by the Ministry of War were very appetizing. He didn't say anything about weapons, but only said that they could turn the advantage of the Huns into the advantage of the Qin cavalry, and it was the most powerful to sweep the northwest desert. weapons.
Du Changjing wants to see what kind of new weapon it is that can make the Ministry of War talk nonsense!
Du Changjing walked to a wooden cart, took a closer look at the wooden box on the cart, and then waved to several soldiers watching the show, "Come here, you guys, bring a box down!"
The soldiers who were called were shocked, and hurried to Du Changjing, and then carefully lifted a box. Seeing the cautious look of the soldiers, Miao Chun couldn't help but smiled and said, "There's no need to be so careful, the soldiers from the Ministry of War Things are not so easy to break, haha!"
Having said that, the soldiers who carried the boxes were still cautious.
After moving a box down, Du Changjing waved his hand to signal the soldiers to step aside. After the soldiers retreated respectfully, Du Changjing pulled out the sword at his waist, and lifted the wooden box cover with one sword, exposing the contents of the wooden box to the outside world. In the eyes of everyone.
I saw several sets of black armor lying in the wooden box. The armor is completely black, the surface is like fish scales, the armor is smooth, and the word "Qin" is engraved in the center of the chest. There are shawls on the left and right sides of the armor to protect the arms. The armor covers up to the knees. There is also a tiger pattern belt with the word "Qin" engraved on the head of the belt. At first glance, it looks majestic and majestic!
"Is this an equipment officer or an ordinary soldier?" Zhao Hua looked at Miao Chun, and as soon as he said the words, Zhao Hua wanted to slap himself, isn't this nonsense?It must be equipped with generals, how much gold and silver would it cost to equip ordinary soldiers.
"General!" Before Miao Chun could reply, Du Changjing answered for Miao Chun.
In Du Changjing's eyes, this kind of armor must be equipped only by generals.
Miao Chun showed a smile on his face, "General, this is the fish scale armor, a new type of armor developed by the national craftsman of the Ordnance Department. A few days ago, it was designated as standard armor by His Majesty, that is to say, the fish scale armor is to be used in the whole army. Yes, not only the soldiers of the Great Wall Camp, but all the soldiers of the Great Qin Dynasty will be equipped, but the Great Wall Camp has priority equipment!"
"A general's armor is also a fish-scale armor, but the fish-scale armor worn by a general has a pattern, and each pattern represents a different general!"
"What? Form the whole army?" Zhao Hua was taken aback suddenly, completely stunned.
"What did the lord say?"
"It seems to be saying, this is our armor, not the general's!"
"Fart, this lord said that from now on, our armor will be the same as the general's armor, but the pattern will be different!"
"My God, I can wear such a handsome armor!"
The soldiers who were watching the play were pleasantly surprised when they heard Miao Chun's words. They had never thought that the fish scale armor was for them before, and they all started discussing happily for a while.
Du Changjing was also stunned for a moment, but soon came back to his senses, and then couldn't help asking: "How much gold and silver does the imperial court invest in the Ordnance Department every year?"
Miao Chun fell into brief contemplation, and after a moment of contemplation, he replied thoughtfully: "Since the restructuring of the Ordnance Department, the imperial court has invested 700 million taels of silver into the Ordnance Department every year. Ten thousand taels of silver!"
"800 million taels, I guess my Daqin's annual financial income is not so much. The imperial court is so willing to spend money on the ordnance department, it is really spending the money wisely!" Du Changjing couldn't help but sighed, and then faded away. Tiger pattern armor, replace it with brand new fish scale armor!
"You, come to assassinate this general!" Du Changjing waved to a soldier.
"Ah?" The soldier who was called was stunned for a moment, and did not turn around.
"That's right, I'm calling you, pick up your long spear and stab the general!" Du Changjing looked at the soldier solemnly and said.
"This...."
"The general's words are military orders, do you dare to disobey the military orders?"
In order to dispel the soldier's hesitation, Du Changjing used military orders to suppress him.
PS: "Please book in full!"
Chapter 314 Excited Du Changjing!
The soldier took a deep breath, hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth and stabbed at Du Changjing with a spear.
Bang!With a bang, the tip of the spear was blunt directly, and the fish scale armor only had a little white mark, so its defensive power needless to say.
"it is good!"
"Great!"
More and more soldiers gathered around to watch. When they saw this scene, they immediately applauded.
"What happened!"
Ma Bold, who was training the soldiers under his command, was also attracted here, and immediately asked Zhao Hua what happened. After Zhao Hua's explanation, Ma Bold was both shocked and happy, and looked at the fish scale armor on Du Changjing's body with fiery eyes.
Du Changjing took off the fish-scale armor on his body, put on the tiger-pattern armor again, and put the fish-scale armor back into the wooden box. At this moment, Miao Chun said proudly, "General, are you satisfied with the armor? "
"Satisfied, if you are not satisfied with this, what else can you be satisfied with? With this armor, the casualties of our army can be reduced by at least half!" Du Changjing couldn't help sighing again.
At this time, Du Changjing realized how great it was to have a good court behind him.
"Haha!" Miao Chun laughed proudly.
"Brothers, unload the car and change the armor!" Ma boldly waved and shouted impatiently.
Hearing this, all the soldiers rushed towards the wooden cart, but at this moment, Miao Chun waved his hand to stop him and said, "Wait a minute, all soldiers, the fish scale armor is just one of them, and there are a few new weapons, don't worry, put them away first." It's not too late to change up all the weapons after checking!"
How many more?
This is to replace them all!
All the soldiers were surprised and delighted!
"The general comes with me!"
Miao Chun walked towards the other wooden carts, and Du Changjing and other officers and men followed suit. When Miao Chun reached the wooden cart loaded with long wooden boxes, he stopped and pointed at the long wooden boxes facing Du Changjing. He said with a smile, "General, open it and have a look!"
