The Jagged Empire of Daqin

"What are you doing!"

Jiang looked at Zhang Donghe with dissatisfaction, feeling anxious for a while.

Zhang Donghe also looked at Jiang with dissatisfaction, "What do you know, you woman!"

Jiang lowered her head in grievance, choked up secretly, thinking, why did she marry this fool?

"Father, count me in too!" The third son Zhang Qiuhe also stood up and said, but he was not as firm as Zhang Donghe, and his expression was full of helplessness. Compared with Jiang's dissatisfaction, Jiang was not dissatisfied on the spot, and like Zhang Qiuhe, his face Show helplessness.

When I was young, my father always said that the elder brother should give way to the younger brother, and the elder brother did as well. The elder brother did all the hard work. They only do a little light work at a young age. Now that they are grown up, they have no reason to Let the older brother continue to suffer.

Seeing the third and fourth children standing up, the eldest Zhang Chunhe and the second eldest Zhang Xiahe secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and felt relieved in their hearts. They thought that they really did not hurt them in vain, and the eldest wife Li and the second daughter-in-law Wang felt relieved , the whole person became much more relaxed.

If the two of them were really allowed to go, it is estimated that people would die halfway along the way, and the body really couldn't bear it.

"Okay, okay!" Zhang Shishan's eyes turned red, and a look of relief appeared on his face. At the same time, he was very relieved, and at the same time, he was extremely reluctant. As he thought about it, tears could not help but flow from his old eye sockets, which made people feel heartbroken and sad. have no choice.

Zhang Shishan raised his hand and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with the skirt of his clothes, then tremblingly took out a cloth bag from his sleeve. Seeing the cloth bag, the eyes of the four daughters-in-law lit up, because this cloth bag was Zhang Shishan’s money bag, and the entire Zhang Shishan All the family's money is inside!

"Father has been considered a hardworking person in his life, and he has saved a lot of money. Originally, Dad planned to let you share the money when Dad died, but now the third and fourth are leaving soon, so let the third and fourth Si divide the money, it's dad's compensation!"

While Zhang Shishan was talking, he took out the banknotes from the cloth bag. There were 800 banknotes with a denomination of one hundred taels in total, a total of [-] taels of silver. money man.

"Grandpa, the child, all the money will be given to the third and fourth, what about us?" The second daughter-in-law, Wang Shi, was a little jealous, obviously not wanting the third and fourth to swallow the huge sum of money alone.

Chapter 665 Daqin's Busy!

"Shut up, talk more, get out!" The second child, Zhang Xiahe, suddenly scolded his daughter-in-law Wang.

Mrs. Wang trembled from being scolded, and lowered her head involuntarily, not daring to continue speaking.

"The reason why my father gave all the money to the third and fourth is that besides wanting to give some compensation, it is also because the family of the third and fourth are going to Dongzhou, two thousand miles away. After they leave, the family's 230 acres of land will be lost We can only let the boss and the second child share it, the two families share the money, and the two families share the land. It is not unfair to say that it is fair, and it is fair to say that it is unfair. If you think it is not possible, then we can continue to discuss!" Zhang Shishan said helplessly. Said with an expression.

In fact, if you really want to care about every detail, the third and fourth must be the one who suffers, because the fields can continuously generate wealth, and besides the fields, there is also the Zhang family's compound.

"Father, I think it's okay!"

"Father, I think it's okay too!"

The third and fourth children said unequivocally that they didn't care about it because it was unnecessary.

"If that's the case, then the third and fourth brothers will be wronged!"

"I'm sorry!"

The eldest child and the second child stood up from their seats and saluted the third and fourth child as a token of thanks.

"Okay, that's the deal. The third and fourth daughter-in-laws should take the money back. You should also call the youngsters in your family and identify them carefully. Don't know anyone when you visit relatives in the future!" Zhang Shi Shan showed a look of reluctance.

The four sons nodded, expressing their understanding.

Next, the four sons of the old Zhang family called their sons and daughters over, and asked them to remember each other's appearance and name. Since the Zhang family had a certain financial capacity, Zhang Shishan also invited a painter to come.

Ask the painter to paint two portraits for himself, his four sons and his four daughters-in-law, and then the third and fourth families took away one set of portraits of the whole family, and the other set was left in the Zhang family compound, and the genealogy was also copied into four copies. , one for each of the four families, this is for visiting relatives in the future, because it takes at least ten or ten years to visit relatives once!

People take tea, things are different, and without portraits and genealogy, no one knows who the other is.

The separation of the Zhang Family Courtyard is not an isolated case, but a reflection of the five counties of the Northern State of the Great Qin Empire and the two counties to the west of Zhongzhou. During this period, people everywhere are busy separating their families. The size of the army is getting bigger and bigger.

The official road is full of long dragons that can't be seen from the beginning to the end. One family after another dragged their families to the east. For this reason, the government dispatched many officers and soldiers to maintain order and prevent the migrating army from trampling on the crops on both sides of the official road.

As the destination of the migrating army, the three counties west of Zhongzhou and the six counties of Dongzhou are busy building schools. At the same time as the city, he also went to Yingchang to prepare for the water conservancy road project in the six counties of Dongzhou and the three counties east of Zhongzhou!

Ying Chang received the memorial from the Ministry of Industry and approved it directly without further ado, so another big project was born. The Ministry of Households allocated [-] million silver for this to fully support the water conservancy and road projects of the Ministry of Industry. Experience, after receiving the money from the Ministry of Households, the water conservancy road project was carried out soon!

For a time, the whole country was busy with army construction, city construction, road and water conservancy construction, school construction, population migration, under the numerous matters, the eyes of court officials and officials from all over the world were tired, and it was a waste of time to even drink water and eat .

As the emperor, Ying Chang naturally couldn't relax, and the memorials piled up into hills every day, almost exhausting Ying Chang!

The sun and the moon fly like a shuttle, time flies like an arrow, and the days go by day by day!

Sheng Qin, May 21, [-], at noon!

The Great Qin Empire, Xianyang City, the Imperial Palace, and the Imperial Study Room!

In the imperial study room, Ying Chang sat on the dragon chair with a haggard face and reviewed the memorials. Every time he reviewed a memorial, Ying Chang would throw it on the ground and ask Xu Shui to clean it up. save time.

As long as the time for sorting out the memorials is saved, Ying Chang can review ten more memorials in one day. It seems small, but it adds up!

Xu Shui, the head of military guards in the Xianyang Palace who was squatting next to Ying Chang, was grinding the ink hard while helping to sort out the memorial. The faster Ying Chang reviewed it, the more tired he became, and he couldn’t stop at all. After some time, Xu Shui raised his head and took a look. The sky outside, and immediately said to Ying Chang: "Your Majesty, it's noon, it's time for lunch!"

"Don't eat, save it for the night!" Ying Chang said without raising his head, never moved his eyes from the memorial, and never put down the cinnabar pen in his hand. Seeing Ying Chang's haggard face, Xu Shui couldn't help but feel a little distressed. : "Your Majesty, you haven't eaten breakfast yet, and if you don't eat lunch, your dragon body may not be able to bear it!"

"I am consummated, not to mention not eating two meals, three days without eating and drinking, and still alive and well, that's enough, stop talking nonsense, if you are hungry, someone else will come in to support you, and you can fill your stomach yourself!" Ying Chang didn't take it seriously, his mind was already immersed in the memorial.

"I'm not hungry!" In desperation, Xu Shui could only bite the bullet and continue grinding ink and organizing memorials.

Originally, he thought that it would be very comfortable to be by His Majesty's side, but it turned out that he would be exhausted by His Majesty's side. Now he only hoped that Pei Ji would come back quickly, and if he didn't come back, he would die of exhaustion in the Imperial Study Room.

tread... tread...

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the hall. Ying Chang was indifferent to the sound of footsteps and continued to review the memorial without raising his head. On the other hand, Xu Shui looked outside the hall like a savior, hoping that someone would stand up and persuade His Majesty to have lunch.

When Xu Shui saw the person walking into the imperial study room, he felt pleasantly surprised and wanted to cry. He quickly stood up and bowed to the oncoming person excitedly, saying, "Master Pei Wu, you finally came back!"

Ying Chang slightly raised his head and glanced at Pei Ji who was coming, and then looked at Xu Shui curiously, thinking, why Xu Shui was so excited when Pei Ji came back, maybe, the two of them have...

Ying Chang got goosebumps all over the ground and felt a little cold.

Pei Ji knelt down on one knee, raised his hand respectfully and saluted, "Your Majesty, I'm back to report on my duties!"

Ying Chang put down the cinnabar pen in his hand, looked up at Pei Ji, and said expressionlessly, "Get up, how are you doing?"

Pei Ji first got up from the ground, and then replied with a respectful expression: "I selected a total of [-] soldiers in the reserve battalion, all of whom are cavalry, and they are waiting for orders in the capital camp!"

"Why didn't you bring it into the palace?" Ying Chang asked.

PS: "Please recommend tickets, ask for monthly tickets, ask for full reservations, and ask for rewards!"

Chapter 666 Excited to Cry!

"They are all recruits who have been in the camp for less than a year. Although they are all cavalry, they have not yet mastered equestrian skills. Moreover, His Majesty said that they should not only be trained to be good cavalry, but also to be good at walking. It takes three to five years of training!"

"If I introduce them to the palace for training, the daily training will definitely disturb His Majesty's handling of political affairs and disturb the peace of the palace, so I think, first let them train in the capital camp, and when they are trained, they will become banned in the palace. Guards!" Pei Ji replied respectfully, raising her hand.

Ying Chang frowned slightly, "According to what you said, don't you have to go out of the palace every day? Or, you handed over the training of the Imperial Guard recruits to others?"

"I don't dare to entrust this important task to others without authorization, but I have this intention!" Pei Ji bent down and said.

"Who are you going to hand it over to? King Wu?" Ying Chang seems to have guessed who Pei Ji is going to train for. In fact, there is no need to guess, just think about it. After all, King Wu Bai Qi is the only commander who has lived in Xianyang for a long time. Give it to whom.

"Exactly!" Pei Ji nodded.

Sure enough, as Ying Chang expected, Pei Ji really wanted to hand over 20 Imperial Guard recruits to Bai Qi for training. There were three reasons. First, only Bai Qi could train recruits in Xianyang City and its surrounding areas. The world-recognized invincible god of war, training him, the army's combat effectiveness is guaranteed, three, Bai Qi is currently busy training [-] capital divisions, just in time to help train the new recruits of the Imperial Guard!

"Be considerate, then do as you say!" Ying Chang made a decisive decision.

Originally, Ying Chang’s original plan was to personally train the recruits himself, because the army trained by himself and the army trained by others did not feel the same at all. Leading the army trained by himself to fight is as easy as holding chopsticks in the right hand , Leading an army trained by others to fight, it is as uncomfortable to use as chopsticks in the left hand.

Of course, lefties say otherwise.

And Bai Qi is Ying Chang's right-hand man. The army he trains is the same as his own, and it must be easy to use. Moreover, he finds that he has no time to train recruits. There are a lot of memorials waiting for review every day. If he can sleep for more than two hours, he can jump up happily, so he has no energy to train recruits at all.

Pei Ji bowed and walked to Xu Shui's side, muttering softly: "You go down first, leave this place to me!"

"Thank you Captain Peiwu!" Xu Shui's face flushed with excitement, and he left the imperial study room at a relatively fast pace.

"This kid!" Monk Pei Ji Erzhang couldn't figure out why Xu Shui was so excited.

"The ink is almost dry, tidy up the memorials on the ground!"

Ying Chang was in a busy state again, with memorials flying all over the sky. Seeing this scene, Pei Ji finally understood why Xu Shui was so excited. If he had known this, he should take a day off and come back to Xu Shui's class the next day. This heavy work Quantity, who can stand it!

This is the first time in Ying Chang's life that he has been so busy!

"Your Majesty, on the way back to Xianyang, I happened to hear some great news from a businessman who went to Wei and Qin!" Pei Ji said while tidying up the memorials on the ground.

"What news?" Ying Chang asked without raising his head, as if he only had memorials in his eyes.

"The Moon Empire dispatched 10,000+ troops to attack Dagu City on the border of Wei and Yue, which shocked the Wei court. In addition, the Moon Empire also sent envoys to submit a declaration of war to the Wei court. Today Emperor Wei is a traitor who deceives his master and destroys his ancestors!"

"Emperor Wei was furious and wanted to kill the Moon Envoy himself with a sword in his hand. Unexpectedly, the Moon Envoy hid his weapon and entered the palace and committed suicide in front of Wei Junchen. Wei Emperor was furious and ordered to declare war on the Moon Empire, and Declare that the entire Tu Guangyue Empire will not be left behind!"

"What's more interesting than this is that the former Crown Prince's uterus has made a comeback. There are 40 elite troops in its hands, known as the Prince's Army. The Prince's Army swept the Wei Empire all the way across the border. The soldiers are for their own use, and the size of the army is growing at an extremely fast speed!" Pei Ji told Ying Chang one by one the news he heard on the road.

Ying Chang couldn't help but paused holding the cinnabar pen. After a short pause, he began to review the memorial again. While reviewing the memorial, he also asked, "Pei Ji, do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?"

"I think this is definitely a good thing for me, Daqin!" Pei Ji replied respectfully.

"Tell me!" Ying Chang said without raising his head.

"The Wei Empire has been strong for a long time, and all generations have been Ming emperors and lords. There are rumors among the people that there are at least tens of billions of taels of silver and billions of stones of grain in the treasury of the Wei Empire. Regardless of whether this rumor is true or not, it is an undeniable fact that the Wei Empire is powerful!"

"Since Your Majesty took power, our national strength has been increasing every year. Now we have six prefectures and 33 counties, more than [-] million people, and a million masters. We have resolutely become the second largest superpower in Kyushu. As the saying goes Well said, Mu Xiuyu will be destroyed by the forest wind, the Wei Empire will definitely not let our Great Qin surpass them, and will definitely try to destroy our Great Qin Sheji, and it is not impossible to start a war against our Great Qin!"

"But if the civil war in the Wei Empire continues, they will not have the energy to deal with my Great Qin. My Great Qin can rest assured to develop its national strength and heritage. With our current strength, as long as it is not against the Wei Empire, our Qin army can sweep it!"

"Even when the civil war in the Wei Empire ceases and the national strength is weakened, our Qin army can march from the western desert and take advantage of the moon to conquer the Wei Empire. If we don't want to destroy the Wei Empire in one go, we will also destroy half of the Wei Empire's vitality!"

"In this way, my Great Qin is the well-deserved overlord of the Kyushu, so I think the outbreak of the civil war in the Wei Empire is a great thing!" Pei Ji replied respectfully.

Ying Chang closed the memorial that had been reviewed, and gently placed the cinnabar pen in his hand on the inkstone, "Your analysis is good, and this is the scene I would like to see the most, otherwise, there is no need for me to support the power of the Crown Prince!" Ying Chang There was a sneer at the corner of his mouth!

The world is the board, the countries are the chessboard, and he Yingchang is a chess player looking down on the chessboard of the world, playing with the countries in the applause!

"Is Your Majesty ready to take the next step?" Pei Ji couldn't help asking curiously.

"At this point, it's the end, there is no next step to go, Pei Ji, I want you to do an errand, you go and tell the capital censor Changqing, let him cultivate a few secret workers, and place them in the palace of the crown prince and the court of Wei respectively. , I want to know the trend of the Crown Prince and the Wei court as soon as possible, you know this matter and I know all the censors!" Ying Chang said calmly with a blank face.

Chapter 667 The Dilemma of the Yan Empire!

"I understand!" Pei Ji replied cautiously.

Soon, Pei Ji left the imperial study and went to do the errand assigned to him by Ying Chang.

After Pei Ji left, Ying Chang began to review the memorials again. Poor Xu Shui had just taken a few breaths outside before being called back by Ying Chang.

Time flies, and the days pass by!

With the passage of time, schools in the six counties of Dongzhou and the three counties east of Zhongzhou have been completed one after another, enabling countless local children to go to school to learn knowledge, allowing the people to enjoy the policy treatment of the Great Qin Empire, and the progress of road and water conservancy projects is also very fast, benefiting Countless local people were killed, and as the migrating army arrived at their destinations one after another, the poorly populated six counties of Dongzhou and the three counties east of Zhongzhou presented a scene of vitality!

If a country is compared to a four-horse chariot, the Great Qin Empire is a ten-horse chariot, galloping fast and rampaging on the battlefield!

The national power of the Great Qin Empire is skyrocketing at an unprecedented speed!

Compared with the growing prosperity of the Great Qin Empire, the lives of the countries of Kyushu are not easy!

Since the Yan Dynasty lifted the restrictions on the recruitment of troops by the government in various places, the soldiers and horses in the governments all over the country grew rapidly, and the banditry that was rampant across the country was eradicated in less than three months. Only Yin Li, who was left in Yandao, had not been wiped out, but the people of Yan were not happy yet. , Civil war broke out in the Yan Empire!

The fuse of the civil war originated from a king, and it happened like this!

In June of the 21st year of the Holy Qin Dynasty, Huang Xing, the prefect of Jinchang County, had made great achievements in suppressing bandits and supported 20 soldiers. The Yan court named Huang Xing the king of gold, and handed over the Bailan Great Wall camp to Huang Xing. The commander of the Bailan Great Wall camp was Zheng Zheng. The dragon refused to accept it, brazenly resisted the decree, and asked the court to withdraw the decree.

The Yan court was furious, but it hadn't issued an order to suppress Zheng Long. Huang Xing, who had just been named the King of Gold, privately dispatched troops to attack the Bailan camp, intending to destroy Zheng Long who refused to accept him. But Huang Xing did not expect that he would recruit The 20 local soldiers are brave and brave, and they are no match for the [-] frontier soldiers.

And Zheng Long is not a mediocre general. In the past, 40 Zhao troops invaded the country. Zheng Long defeated the mighty Zhao army several times and recovered a large amount of land. After the armistice between Yan and Zhao, Deng Huazhen named Zheng Long the fourth-rank Xiaoqi general, guarding the Bailan Great Wall for the Great Yan court!

Huang Xing's 20 King Gold Army was defeated in the first battle, and almost the entire army was wiped out. After Zheng Long defeated the King Jin Army, he went straight to Zhoukou, the county town of Jinchang County, and took Huang Xing's lair in one go. Huang Xing also reacted too slowly, Captured by Zheng Long.

On the night when Huang Xing was captured, he was poisoned and killed by Zheng Long in the prison. When this incident spread to the capital of Wuyang Emperor, it immediately aroused the anger of the imperial court. The most angry person was Huang Pin, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, because Huang Xing was his His younger brother was also the one who arranged for Huang Xing to be the governor of Jinchang County. In other words, Jinchang County was robbed of the fiefdom of the Huang family, so how could he not be angry!

The Yan court reacted very quickly, and quickly issued an order to the three county guards of Huaibei County, Jiyuan County, and Changfu County, ordering the three county guards to lead the army to suppress the rebellion, but the three county guards had ghosts in their hearts and wanted to preserve their strength. Yang obeys Yin and violates, and he has been reluctant to send troops for a long time.

It was not until October that the three county guards were pressured by the court and had to send some troops to Jinchang County to make a show. , the soldiers under his command have already expanded.

In just a few months, an army of 40 became an army of [-]!

Undoubtedly, Zheng Long easily defeated the troops sent by the three prefects and took them back for his own use. The 40 army expanded to 50 again. The three sheriffs of Changfu County and Changfu County were so frightened that they quickly mobilized all the soldiers and horses to Jinchang County to suppress the rebellion.

Fix it before it's too late!

The 30 coalition army of the three county guards was defeated by Zheng Long's army. After defeating the 30 coalition army, the strength of Zheng Long's army expanded again, from 50 to 70. In one month, Changfu County changed hands to Zheng!

Zheng Long owns two counties and has 70 armors. His huge strength makes him have the qualifications to challenge the court. Therefore, Zheng Long wrote to the court, asking the court to make him King Zheng and grant him Jinchang County and Changfu County. As a fief!

The Yan court rejected Zheng Long's request and ordered Liu Zhendong, the commander of the Ningta Great Wall camp, to mobilize an army to suppress Zheng Long. After receiving the order, Liu Zhendong mobilized 20 Ningta troops to Jinchang County to suppress the rebellion, and Zheng Long sent troops back to defend.

The Ningta Great Wall camp was one of the few elite troops in the Dayan Empire. It was not defeated by Zheng Long, but had the upper hand. The northwest of the Yan Empire was in turmoil, and the banditry that had just been suppressed was rampant again.

The Yan court has put all its energy on Zheng Long, and has no energy to manage those bandits. Even Yin Li in Yandao has been selectively ignored. The dragon is not dead, and it is difficult to sleep and eat!

But those bandits did not pose a threat. After Zheng Long was dealt with, he would focus on suppressing the bandits.
