The Jagged Empire of Daqin
Page 234
"Your Majesty, my lord, long live my emperor!"
Six ministers including Li Ke, Minister of Li, Kong, Minister of Rites, Yang Ze, Minister of War, Jia Luo, Minister of Household, Lei Tong, Minister of Criminal Justice, and Jiang Haiyou, Minister of Industry, knelt before the imperial case and bowed. Ying Chang looked around at the six ministers , then raised a hand and said: "Get up!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The six ministers kowtowed respectfully to thank them, then slowly got up from the ground, and looked at Ying Chang who was sitting on the dragon chair with doubts on their faces, wondering why Ying Chang summoned them suddenly.
Ying Chang did not betray them, and went straight to the point: "I just received a report from the Marquis of Shangyang, which said that my Qin army and hundreds of thousands of Zhao troops fought outside the southern gate of Jinling City on June 26. In this battle, our army lost 13 of our own, killed 11 enemies, and took [-] prisoners, severely defeating the Zhao army!"
"On the second day after defeating Zhao Jun, Shangyang Hou accepted Jin Emperor Min Huo's surrender on behalf of the Great Qin Dynasty. That is to say, from now on, the Great Jin Empire has completely become history. King Jin!"
"Accepted surrender?"
"Haha, that's great, the Jin Empire is finally destroyed!"
"My Great Qin is really powerful. I thought it would take a year or two. After all, it took four or five years for the Wei Empire to destroy Wu and Yue, but my Great Qin only took three months to destroy it. The Jin Empire is really shocking!"
Chapter 613 Yang Ze's Proposal!
"After the Jin Empire is destroyed, the population of our Great Qin Empire will exceed 500 million, and the territory will also expand by nine counties, which will greatly increase the population and territory of our Great Qin Empire. Congratulations!"
"Haha, overjoyed, definitely overjoyed!"
"My great Qin has wiped out other countries for the first time since the founding of the country. It really grows the ambition of my Qin people!"
The six ministers looked excited, and you could see how excited they were from their faces when you said something to each other with blushing faces.
"Your Majesty, the Zhao Empire is only in this one battle. The terror has no power to resist our Great Qin. Looking at the countries in the northwest of Kyushu, there is no single country that can compete with our Great Qin. It is a veritable overlord of the Northwest!" Yang Ze, Minister of the Ministry of War, said excitedly. Ying Chang wrote with a smile.
"It's more than a veritable overlord of the Northwest. It took five years for the Wei Empire to destroy Wu, four years for Yue, and three months for my Great Qin to destroy Jin. I can also be Daqin!"
"My Qin army is invincible in all battles, and we can sweep all the countries in the Northwest just around the corner!"
"My Great Qin has become one of the most powerful empires in the Kyushu. From now on, no empire will dare to look down on us, and no empire will dare to provoke us!"
"Now only the Wei Empire can stand against us, and the rest are nothing more than ants, who can be wiped out with a single hand!"
"This sentence is a bit arrogant, but it also has a certain truth. Although my Qin army is small, all of them are elite soldiers. There are more than [-] reserve battalion soldiers on standby. This strength is enough to make the world. the terror!"
The faces of the six ministers were full of pride, and they almost had the word "proud" written on their faces, and their hearts were also full of self-confidence. This self-confidence is a kind of self-confidence that looks down on the world and ignores all countries in the world!
"Haha!" Hearing the flattery of the six ministers, Ying Chang couldn't help laughing out loud, and said a little dumbfounded: "Okay, okay, stop talking, if you continue, I can't help but declare war on the Kyushu countries !"
"Ha ha!"
Ying Chang made a joke that made the six ministers couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Cough cough!" Ying Chang pretended to cough, put away the smile on his face, looked at the six ministers solemnly and said, "The aftermath after the demise of the Jin Empire is very cumbersome. The first thing is to transfer officials. Go to various places to go to work and restore order as soon as possible!"
As soon as the words fell, Li Ke, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, wrote back with a respectful expression: "My Majesty, the Ministry of Officials has already dispatched alternate officials. As long as Your Majesty gives an order, the alternate officials will go to various places in the Jin Dynasty to take up their posts!"
"Well, very good, how about this, in a month's time, the alternate officials will be ordered to take up their posts in various places in Jin!" Ying Chang said decisively.
"I obey the order!" Li Ke respectfully raised his hand in response!
"The second thing is that Jin people have encountered wars in the past ten years, and each war ended in a disastrous defeat, resulting in the loss of a large number of young and strong people. Among the nearly 400 million Jin people, there are at least 390 million Jin people. People are old and young, women and children!"
"Everyone knows that the old and young, women and children cannot be self-sufficient at all. At this time, the court needs to open a warehouse to release grain. The matter of escrow has already been done, so I won't say much here. The main thing I want to say is to let the people of Qin marry the daughters of Jin. , restore the population of the Jin state as soon as possible!" Ying Chang said calmly.
The young and strong Jin people have all been wiped out. Now there are at least four women out of ten Jin people. The huge female bonus can't be eaten up by the few young and strong Jin people. At this time, the Qin people need help. The Qin people There are more young and strong, with more than 200 million, which can completely digest the female bonus of Jin people.
In this way, it can effectively promote the integration of Qin people and Jin people, and also effectively increase the population. Although this will make Jin women a reproductive tool, in troubled times, women are not as valuable as a bowl of rice!
This is very sad, but the world is like this, and sorrow is useless.
Women in prosperous times are as expensive as gold, but women in troubled times are as cheap as grass!
"Your Majesty, the method of letting Qin people marry Jin women can indeed restore the population, but I am afraid that few Qin people are willing to go to Jin!" Jia Luo, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, said with a slightly dignified expression.
Nowadays, people in Qin are very rich. If a family does not have a hundred taels of silver, they are embarrassed to look up at others, because as long as they are not lazy, their family property is at least a hundred taels of silver. If the family property does not have a hundred taels of silver, then you are Slacker, others look down on you.
In such a rich situation, whoever has enough to eat and has nothing to do goes to Jinjing. You must know that although Jinjing used to have a lot of fertile land, due to the lack of labor force, [-]% of them have been abandoned. To use an exaggerated word, that is Where the birds don't shit.
In addition to being rich, there are free schools in Daqin, which is why Qin people don't go to Jinjing!
"Your Majesty, I believe that there is no need to worry about this matter. You only need to say a word from Your Majesty to resolve it!" Yang Ze, Minister of the Ministry of War, bowed down and reported.
After the words fell, the other five ministers all looked at Yang Ze. Ying Chang also glanced at Yang Ze curiously, and said softly, "Tell me, Ai Qing!"
"Your Majesty can relax the law of human trafficking and allow merchants to traffic in human beings!" Yang Ze said solemnly.
The Great Qin Empire is very strict about human trafficking. Once caught, at least ten years of imprisonment. If it is more serious, such as child trafficking, it will be dragged to the market and beheaded for public display. Under the strict rule of law, human trafficking in Daqin There are very few cases!
"absurd!"
Kong, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, suddenly sank his face, and looked at Yang Ze with rather unfriendly eyes. He is the minister of the Ministry of Rites, who pays the most attention to morality, but human trafficking, people are like grass and trees, which is really morally degraded. How can he, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, bear it.
Otherwise, if Ying Chang was here, he would have already started scolding.
Yang Ze turned his head slightly to look at Kong, and said in a calm tone: "Master Kong, be safe and don't be impatient, and listen to me carefully!" After saying this, Yang Ze looked at Ying Chang again. , and then said: "Your Majesty, the current Qin law stipulates that anyone who traffics in human beings will be imprisoned for ten years, and children who are trafficked will be killed without mercy!"
"My minister believes that the law should be changed according to the national conditions. Now Daqin needs to change this law. As long as it is properly relaxed, merchants will go to Jin to buy Jin women, and then return to Daqin to sell the bought Jin women. Give it to the Qin people!"
"In this way, the people of Qin can marry Jin women without having to go to the distant lands of Jin by themselves. They all need to pay a sum of money to the government as a population tax!"
PS: "I'm asking for a recommendation ticket, asking for a monthly ticket, asking for a reward, asking for a full reservation, and asking for four daily requests. I hope you will support me a lot!"
Chapter 614 Zhao Ren's Confidence!
"Businessmen must report to the government to buy Jin women, record all information in detail, and strictly require the following two points for businessmen. First, they must guarantee their lives. Second, they must not abuse them; if the people purchased by the merchant die, they will be fined 1000. A fine of two taels of silver, if there is abuse, a fine of 100 taels, if it is serious, the government has the right to confiscate the population in the hands of the merchant!"
"If a businessman does not report to the government and sells human beings privately, he shall be punished according to the original law. He will be imprisoned for ten years or killed without mercy. amnesty!"
After hearing these words, Ying Chang looked at Lei Tong, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, and asked in an unhurried tone: "Lei Aiqing, what do you think?"
Lei Tong fell silent, lost in thought between his brows, thinking about the pros and cons of changing the law, and after careful consideration, Lei Tong bowed down respectfully and wrote back; "Your Majesty, I think that this article can be changed according to Master Yang's wishes. Law!"
"Your Majesty, you must not relax human trafficking!" Kong, the Minister of Rites, looked at Ying Chang Zuozuo pleadingly and saluted.
"I know that Kong Aiqing has a lot of objections to the relaxation of human trafficking. In fact, I don't want to relax it, but the current national conditions of my Daqin are indeed suitable for implementing this law, which will effectively strengthen the integration of Qin people and Jin people!" Ying Chang said in a deep tone. Said to Kong.
"Alas!" Kong sighed helplessly, and the originally sunny mood suddenly turned into dark clouds.
"Lei Aiqing, I'll leave it to you to change the law!" Ying Chang said decisively.
"I obey the order!" Lei Tong bowed down respectfully and responded.
Ying Chang looked around at the six ministers and said, "Now let's talk about the third thing. The Jin Empire has surrendered. According to the rules, the Jin Dynasty will hand over their six rosters and the national household registration. This matter is very important to you all." It's related, I hope all my lovers are ready for the handover!"
"The ministers wait for you to comply with the order!" The six ministers all bowed down and responded in unison.
"Kong Aiqing, you can now order the Ministry of Rites to prepare for the canonization ceremony. I'm going to hold a banquet in Fengtian Hall, canonize meritorious generals, and reward the three armies!" Ying Chang said immediately.
To destroy an empire, this must be canonized!
"Your servant complies with the order!" Kong bowed down solemnly and responded.
"Your Majesty, the Jin Empire has surrendered, should we stop sending fuel tanks to Wu Jinjun?" Yang Ze, Minister of the Ministry of War, raised his hand solemnly and asked.
In Yang Ze's eyes, the transportation of fire oil tanks was originally for Wu Jin's army to attack the city, but now that the Jin Empire has surrendered, there is no need to attack the city.
"Continue to deliver!" Ying Changjia replied without thinking.
Yang Ze was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and before he could ask, Yingchang explained: "Wujin Pass has changed from a border pass to an inner pass, and there is no need for garrison. Prison, resist the Zhao Empire!"
"The fire oil tanks are not available now, but it doesn't mean they won't be used in the future. One day, there will be a big battle between Qin and Zhao, and a lot of fire oil tanks will be needed at that time. Now, transporting more fire oil tanks will only benefit and not harm! "
Prepare for battle!
When Yang Ze heard this, a look of enlightenment appeared on his face, and he immediately understood Ying Chang's intentions.
"In addition to withdrawing the garrison at Wujin Pass, I also plan to withdraw the garrison at the Great Wall. The specific matters will be discussed in the court meeting in the future. There is no rush for this right now!" Ying Chang said calmly.
At the beginning, the soldiers and horses of the Great Wall were not withdrawn because the northwest desert was just conquered, and the situation was not particularly stable, so the soldiers and horses of the Great Wall were not withdrawn. Now the northwest desert is stable, and there has never been a single chaos. The Great Wall can be withdrawn Soldiers and horses, let the soldiers and horses of the Great Wall garrison other places!
"I understand!" Jarrow and other six ministers responded respectfully.
After a period of time, the six ministers left the imperial study one after another, and Ying Chang continued to review the memorials. The news spread very quickly. After Jia Luo and the other six ministers left the palace, many officials knew about the surrender of the Jin Empire. Spread throughout Xianyang City!
"Everyone, I have some good news. My second aunt's third uncle's son's friend is working in the household department. I heard the adults in the household department say that the Jin Empire has surrendered, and the court is preparing officials to go to the Jin Empire... Bah , Go to Jinjing to work!"
"My God, is it true or not!"
"This is too fast. Originally, it took at least a year to destroy the Jin Empire, but it ended in a few months!"
"The news is true. I have already asked my friends, but the war is not over yet. Our Great Qin seems to be going to fight the Zhao Empire!"
"Where did you hear the news? My friend told me that our Daqin has already fought a battle with the Zhao Empire. We won a complete victory and wiped out more than 20 Zhao troops!"
"Domineering, mighty!"
"I am invincible!"
When the news spread throughout Xianyang City, the people in Xianyang City quickly gathered together to discuss. For a while, the streets and alleys in the entire Xianyang City were full of Zhatui people. The more discussions about this matter, the more exciting it was. Everyone Qin people are proud and proud of being Qin people!
at the same time!
Great Zhao Empire, Handan Imperial Capital, in a certain teahouse!
"Shopkeeper, have a bowl of tea!"
"Good sir!"
"Everyone, have you heard the battle on the front line? I heard that the Qin army is very strong, and the Jin army can't hold it at all!"
"The Jin Empire deserves to be beaten. Who told them to be unkind and unrighteous? In my life, I hate this kind of unrighteous people the most. They are smiling with you on the surface, but behind their backs!"
"Yes, you deserve to be beaten, you deserve to be destroyed!"
"The imperial court is very interesting this time, and it also sent troops to attack Jin, which is really relieved!"
"Our Great Zhao and the Jin Empire can be regarded as relatives, but our Great Zhao just wants to kill relatives righteously, and disdains to be relatives with such an inferior country!"
"Do you think Qin Jun will attack our Zhao Jun?"
"No way, I, Zhao Jun, are not helping Jin to fight against Qin. Why does Qin Jun have any reason to attack us?"
"That's not necessarily true. Think about it. The Qin army finally wiped out the Jin army and was about to enjoy the fruits of victory. In the end, our Zhao army didn't do anything and went directly to grab the results. Who can bear it? Qin people What is it? They are all masters who eat meat but don’t spit out bones. If we attack Jin, it will be a tiger’s mouth. In my opinion, the Qin army is likely to attack our Zhao army!"
"how is this possible!"
"What this brother said is very reasonable. Let's imagine that you have worked so hard to plant an acre of land, and you have done all the dirty and hard work. In the end, when the harvest comes, someone runs into your field and wants to follow you. You rob the crops, will you bear it?"
Chapter 615 The confident Zhao court!
"Of course not, I have to break his leg!"
"That's not it!"
"According to what you said, we, Zhao Jun, are going to fight Qin Jun?"
"I think you're overthinking it. Who told you that I, Da Zhao, will take over Jintu? Maybe it's just a fight, and then I'll return to the mainland!"
"You are too young brother, you think that the army will not waste money and food, and the imperial court will definitely get benefits if it is attacked by Jin. If there is no benefit, what kind of Jin will be attacked!"
"My teacher, Zhao Renyi, will never take advantage of the fire to rob!"
"That's right, I, Zhao Jun, conquered Jin, definitely not to grab the results of the battle, but simply to do justice for the heavens and destroy this inhumane empire!"
"Hope it!"
"If, I said if, what if Qin Jun fights our Zhao Jun?"
"What else can I do, fight, whoever is afraid of whom!"
"That's right, what else can I do, one word, fight, scare the Qin army, don't they claim to be invincible? That's because they didn't meet our Zhao army. As long as the Qin army dares to move, the Qin army's invincible myth will come true." To be broken into dross!"
The idlers in the teahouse were talking about the Great Zhao Empire's conquest of Jin. The Zhao people all had a kind of self-confidence, thinking that the Great Zhao Empire was invincible in the world, and they could understand this kind of self-confidence. After all, the Great Zhao Empire None of the neighboring countries around the Zhao Empire is an opponent of the Great Zhao Empire.
Even if Yan, Han, Qi, and Zhongshan are tied together, they can't defeat the Great Zhao Empire. They can only fight in an evenly matched situation and cannot crush the Great Zhao Empire. If they are singled out, the Great Zhao Empire can easily crush Yan, Han, Qi, and Zhongshan!
Confidence comes from strength, and it is not surprising that Zhao people have self-confidence, but their opponent this time is not Yan Hanzhao, but the Great Qin Empire, which is sweeping the northwest desert. The self-confidence of fans is extra ridiculous.
Imperial Palace, Shenghuang Palace!
In the Shenghuang Palace, military officials stood on the left and right sides in light blue court clothes, with extremely solemn expressions, which filled the hall with a serious atmosphere. On the carved dragon throne on the high platform, sat a silver five-clawed dragon The young man in the robe, the young man has an expressionless face, his eyes are like stars, and his knife-sharpened face gives people a sense of fortitude and coldness.
"Calculating the time, King Cheng should have already arrived at the city of Jinling. Why hasn't King Cheng reported? What do you think about this?" Zhao Didan looked around at Minister Wu under the high platform with cold eyes, and his tone was slightly mixed. The coldness made Minister Wu shudder, and he shuddered secretly.
Fang Ruhai, the prime minister who stood at the head of the ranks of officials, took a small step forward, bent down solemnly and respectfully, and said: "Your Majesty, Handan is [-] miles away from the Jinling of the Jin Empire. The road is far away. It is understandable that there has been no report yet!"
"If it's really because of the long distance, I'm relieved. To be honest, ever since I learned that the Jin Empire was going to surrender to the Qin Empire, I began to worry that the Qin army would attack our Zhao army against the disapproval of the world, and I have I have a strong premonition that Emperor Qin will not sit back and watch Da Zhao rule Fangshan County and Fengtai County!" Zhao Didan said in a frosty tone.
Zhao Didan likes to think differently. He once imagined that if he were Emperor Qin, he would definitely take away Fangshan County and Fengtai County!
