Chapter 356 I am willing to be your general

"Clusters!"

Miaohan led his troops in constant pursuit, swinging his sword from time to time to kill a general from the air.

The Qiangqu cavalry collapsed even further and fled further and further away, not daring to look back. Finally, they fled directly out of Chang'an and headed towards Longxi.

Miaohan pursued for three hundred miles but did not pursue him any further.

When I came back, people kept gathering nearby. They looked at the army in shock, ran around calling, and followed closely.

They were all residents who lived in Chang'an and Wuling near Chang'an in the past.

Qiang Qu drove them away and then started digging extensively in Wuling.

The people had no place to live, so they could only huddle in the countryside and build simple shacks, or settle in Chang'an City, which was already in ruins after a fire. Their lives were very difficult.

Unexpectedly, a huge army suddenly descended from heaven and drove away all the Qiangqu people. When I looked again, I saw that it was actually a big man.

They kept following them and wanted to ask for asylum, but the Han soldiers were indifferent and silent, as if they were in strict military discipline.

After silently returning to the vicinity of Wuling City, he disappeared without a trace on a hillside.

"Ah! Gone!"

"It's the heroic army!"

"It must be the barbarians who robbed the imperial tomb and angered the heroes of the Han Dynasty."

The common people made random guesses and imaginations, just like the people of the Qiangqu clan.

After all, this is a special time, a special place, and this army is extremely powerful. It comes and disappears strangely, like ghosts and gods.

The people did not go deep into the mountains, but returned to Lingyi, hoping to settle down here again.

With the guardianship of the heroic spirit of the Han Dynasty, it is more effective than any government. Of course, they will not go anywhere.

"The Han Dynasty has been destroyed for more than a hundred years, but it still has such majesty." Yan Nu said in shock.

Miao Han asked Hou'er to give him a million-strong army, but he wanted to repeat his old trick, imitating the situation of Dang repelling the Bald Hair Clan, and using his clones to create a false military momentum.

However, Zhang Pijiang stopped the monkey and said that there was no need for a million-strong army.

If they were transformed into the Han army, thirty thousand would be enough.

He saw the army during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and immediately taught the monkeys to change, and used fairy magic to cover up the evil spirit, coupled with the momentum of Yan Nu...

It's like the champion is reborn, and the Han cavalry rises again.

Wherever the flag was raised, thirty thousand people remained silent, causing Qiangqu's morale to collapse.

"Before Liu Xiu and Wang Mang, the Han Dynasty never had more than a million troops at any time. Thirty thousand were enough to sweep across the desert."

"Such a prestigious reputation, let alone a hundred years after the Han Dynasty is destroyed, it will still be there even if it is a thousand or ten thousand years."

Zhang Pijiang said with great pride, and then looked at Miao Han who came back: "It would be ridiculous if you let the monkey conjure too many armies."

Miaohan sighed with emotion, cupped his hands and said, "I have learned a lesson."

Yan Nu smiled and said: "On the road to the Human Emperor, we will also build an invincible army like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, which will shock the world and be famous forever. We will teach those young people not to dare to cause trouble to the world, and life will be peaceful."

Miaohan frowned slightly and said: "It was not peaceful during the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Even with an invincible army, the people would still be in trouble."

Yan Nu tilted his head: "Eh? How could it be? Look at the Qiang Canal that plundered so many treasures from the tomb of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, which shows how rich it was at that time."

Luo Yan and other people in the demonic path laughed: "This is still a small amount! It's not as good as Maoling!"

Yan Nu was horrified, looked at the treasures on the hundreds of cars loaded with them, and exclaimed in surprise: "Isn't this enough?"

Luo Yan curled his lips and said: "The Maoling of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is so huge that it far exceeds the Mausoleum of the First Emperor."

"The number of funerary objects is huge, and the treasures from all over the world are collected. There are so many treasures in the huge mausoleum that they can't be accommodated, so that the mausoleum has been expanded several times!"

"Maoling took a total of fifty-three years and continued to expand it until his death."

"One-third of the annual income of the Han Dynasty was spent on the tombs built by the emperors. In the late stages of construction of Maoling Mausoleum, it even consumed one-half of the country's income at that time."

"The huge investment was well known to the world, so the royal family, nobles, and wealthy merchants and gentry all began to imitate Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, building huge mausoleums and burying a large number of treasures, which became a trend at that time."

Yan Nu was shocked. So many resources were used to build the tomb until death. What a huge amount of wealth was just buried underground?

Zhang Pijiang had no way to refute, he just stroked the ruins of Ba Ling and murmured the words of Emperor Wen: "Xiao Ren..."

Luo Yan shrugged and said, "Why do I say this is not enough to be safe?"

"Because the world was in chaos when Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, the Chilin Army, which had a peasant uprising, captured Chang'an, burned the palace, and 'excavated the tombs to retrieve their treasures.'"

"Among them, the treasures in the mausoleum have been moved for dozens of days, but the treasures in the mausoleum still cannot be reduced by half."

"Even later, when the rebels had no money, they would steal Maoling."

Yan Nu was dumbfounded. How many treasures must there be? They couldn't dig out all the treasures like this?

Luo Yan laughed: "Liu Xiu re-established the Han Dynasty, but of course no one dared to poach him. It was not until the end of the Han Dynasty that Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao came to patronize him again!"

"Now that the Hu barbarians are rising and the Qiang Qu clan is poaching again, it is of course just a case in point! And judging from this situation, the poaching will be endless."

"In my opinion, in any war period in the future, the rebels will regard Maoling as an inexhaustible treasure. After all, everyone knows that there are countless treasures inside, so how can it not attract covetous people?"

"Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty never imagined until his death that the countless wealth he buried in his mausoleum would become the military resources of the Han's enemies again and again in the future and support countless gravediggers of the Han Dynasty."

Speaking of this, many Mohists laughed out loud, and Du Yu was even more mouth-watering.

They advocate festival burial, and the imperial tombs of the Han Dynasty are a real negative example.

Yannu looked at Miaohan and said, is that so?

Miao Han nodded: "Emperor Wu opened up the territory and expanded the territory, chasing death and chasing the north, and he made great achievements, but he also went out of his way to achieve great success with military force, built countless palaces, and pursued immortality. Each of them cost a huge amount of money and wasted the people's energy."

"If it weren't for the invincible army and the martial arts that will stand firm for thousands of years, I'm afraid the country would collapse."

Yan Nu was awestruck, he knew too well that harsh government was stronger than demons.

He knew the deeds of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, which were really great achievements. He thought that the people at that time must be very happy, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

But he won't stop eating because of choking, after all, the situation is different.

That powerful martial arts is still something to be proud of, and what he lacks most is resources.

As long as the law of heaven is solved, he will definitely make the world rich and prosperous.

Therefore, he was not shaken after learning the truth behind Qiang Han.

He just said: "It turns out that the country is strong and invincible, but the people are still suffering."

Zhang Pijiang had no way to refute and sighed.

"The white bones have disappeared outside the Qin Great Wall, but the yellow sand still surrounds the Han Tomb."

"To this day, the ruins are mostly covered with weeds, leaving passers-by to pay tribute to the ancient ruins."

He stroked the ruins of Ba Ling and called out the words of Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty.

"Xiaoren, you made a good start, but it's a pity that you can't defeat human nature."

Luo Yan and others were silent. The Mo family's idea of ​​saving money and burials was so reasonable, but no one listened. It was just because of human nature.

Human nature tends to be arrogant, extravagant, lustful and frivolous.

Emperor Wen took the lead in cracking down on arrogance and extravagance and abolished the ancient lavish burial method. Even with such efforts, it could not last for two generations.

Upon seeing this, Yan Nu asked everyone: "Where is this Emperor Wen? How are the people under his rule?"

Zhang Bijiang said: "Emperor Wen promoted honest government, adhered to frugality, encouraged farmers to cultivate mulberry trees, benefited all over the world, respected the virtuous like honored guests, and loved the people like innocent children."

"After more than ten years after taking the throne, the grains are abundant, the people are satisfied, the warehouses are solid, and there is more than enough storage."

"Emperor Jing followed his rule, the world was peaceful, and all families were prosperous. This was the rule of Wen and Jing."

After Yan Nu heard this, he looked at Miaohan: "Is that so?"

Zhang Bijiang was furious: "I saw it with my own eyes, don't you still believe me?"

"Xiaoren was still working in the fields the day before his death. For several years after his death, the people in Guanzhong cried loudly in the fields and missed him. They built a shrine for him at home."

Yan Nu said: "It's not that I don't believe you, I just want to ask more."

"After what happened to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, I found that the same era is different in your eyes."

Luo Yan and other Mohists nodded and said with a smile: "Under Emperor Wen's rule, the people were indeed prosperous."

"The people can be self-sufficient, and there are herds of cattle and horses in the fields. The grain in the warehouse is piled outside the warehouse, and the old grain is rotten to the point of being inedible. Everyone respects and abides by the law, and everyone is ashamed to break it."

"I, the devil, can even say that from the Xia Dynasty to the present, the Wenjing period has been the time when the people have been in the most healthy and harmonious sense."

"It is said to be the most prosperous era in ancient and modern times, but it is a pity that it only lasted twenty years..."

Yan Nu was shocked. Luo Yan and others even disdained Emperor Wu, but said that the time of Emperor Wen was the most prosperous, which shows that the life of the people at that time was indeed very good.

He hurriedly asked Miaohan again, and Miaohan thought for a while and said: "Emperor Wen drastically reduced taxes, reducing them to one-third of the original amount, and the land tax was even thirty to one, and he exempted the country's land rent for twelve consecutive years."
