Chapter 78: Watching Soldiers in Handan
Thinking of this, Ziying immediately bowed and bowed and said, "The mother of the Infant once said that the difference between the king and the minister is like the sun and the moon among the stars, and the sun and the moon are the sun and the moon. If the rituals of the king and the minister are abolished, it is no different from the moon falling and the stars falling.
The king was so loving that Ziying was crying and took it with her, and she inherited it on behalf of her father. However, the difference between the king and the ministers was abolished and forgiven Ziying for not being ordered."
Ziying said the words were deeply affectionate, but he would never accept them anyway. He could call the King of Qin the favor of his uncle. As for the reason, it was directly related to his mother's teachings.
After hearing this, the King of Qin was stunned and silent for a long time. If the lower part had not been unified yet, he had not strengthened the idea of monarchy's centralization, and theories of monarchs and ministers in later generations had not yet appeared.
The saying "The difference between the king and the minister" mentioned by Ziying seemed to open a door to a new world in front of him, "Yes, there is a difference between the king and the minister. The king is always the king, and the minister is always the minister, just as if stars always surround the sun and the moon. If everyone has this idea, how can I say that my Great Qin cannot pass on all generations!"
"I heard that Meng's mother moved three times and Meng Ke finally became a famous scholar of the generation. I think it was wrong. How could a woman have a great cause? Now I know that women also have visionary people, and such a well-versed mother, and such a son." King Zhao Zheng of Qin said, "It's up to you."
After saying that, he touched Ziying's head lovingly and said, "Let's go, let's go and see my Lion of the Hundred Battles in Daqin!"
Military parades have long existed in China. There were records of "watching troops to power the princes" in the Spring and Autumn Period. At this time, the purpose of military parades or military observation is generally to swear an oath, domination, demonstration, etc.
This time, the King of Qin parades in Handan, the capital of Zhao, the purpose of the king of Qin was obvious, demonstrating to the other countries to show the great martial arts of Qin!
A huge schoolyard of several miles in radius was already cleaned up outside Handan City. Tens of thousands of Qin soldiers were standing in the schoolyard with their heads raised and their chests were waiting for the Qin King's inspection.
This will be the most glorious moment in their lives, to defeat the enemy country and accept the inspection of the king during the victory.
In ancient times, it was not modern. Although it was difficult to see the real person of the leader now, no one would be familiar with the appearance of several leaders. However, in ancient times, there were very few opportunities to see the king. Some monarchs with strict laws and regulations, when they went on a patrol, the people looked up and were in danger of killing themselves.
At this time, I am afraid that a county magistrate is an existence they need to look up to.
But today, they can walk past the king with their heads raised, which is their glory as victors.
King Zhao Zheng of Qin, Wang Jian, Ziying, Yang Duanhe and other several successful generals who fought to destroy Zhao, have successively boarded the military parade pavilion that had been built.
Flashes of rapid war drums sounded, as if a tremor was shaking, and the entire Qin army began to move.
The Qin army began to pass through the military parade pavilion in an orderly manner according to the subordinate generals.
Wang Jian, Yang Duanhe and other generals of the army introduced to the King of Qin on the side the performance of the troops in the battle to destroy Zhao and what military achievements they had.
It was also the first time that Zhao Zheng reviewed the Qin army soldiers. He was in a place like Handan City that deeply remembered him. Zhao Zheng seemed very interested in the introduction of Wang Jian and others, and asked about the details of the war from time to time.
Ziying belongs to a larger number of troops than the other parades, so it is divided into two branches: cavalry and infantry.
Soon a sound of horse hooves came, and the Iron Cavalry of China led by Sima Shang arrived.
It can be said that Wang Jian's life was saved by this army. Seeing that it was this army, he immediately said seriously.
"This is the Iron Cavalry of Shenzhou under Chang'an Jun. He was the former commander of Zhao State. During the battle to destroy Zhao, he first fought in Taihang Valley and broke through Li Mu's cavalry and saved our army's camp. Later, during the battle of the Bai people, he broke into pieces and cut off the connection between the Bai people and Handan. He also made great achievements in the rest of the battles.
As for cavalry alone, the combat power of this army should be the essence of the world, no less than that of the original Zhao army's cavalry."
Hearing Wang Jian's words, King Zhao Zheng of Qin immediately became interested in this cavalry.
The Zhao cavalry has always been the elite of the Zhao army. Although Qin has been working hard to develop cavalry units in the past few decades, compared with Zhao, Qin cavalry has always been weaker than Zhao cavalry, and Qin has suffered a lot of losses from the Zhao cavalry on the battlefield.
However, according to Wang Jian, the combat power of this cavalry was not weaker than that of Zhao Qi, which surprised Zhao Zheng for a moment.
Wang Jian was very capable and scheming. Since he dared to say that, then this cavalry would definitely not be weaker than Zhao Qi. Wang Jian's remarks were still believed in Zhao Zheng.
At this time, not only Zhao Zheng, but also the other generals in the parade pavilion, also showed a strong interest in this cavalry after listening to Wang Jian's comments.
"Such great merits should be rewarded. Moreover, Sima Shang, I have heard that the famous general of Zhao was a very powerful general, and it was a waste of talent." Zhao Zheng turned around and asked. "Ziying, how did you train this cavalry?"
He did not forget Wang Jian's initial introduction, and this cavalry was deployed by Ziying.
"I dare not deceive the king. This cavalry was trained by General Sima Shang." Ziying said honestly.
After hearing this, Zhao Zheng nodded. This was consistent with common sense. If a teenager knew how to train the cavalry, then all the cavalry generals of the Qin State would go to have idle meals.
However, Sima Shang had such talent and could use it again, Zhao Zheng secretly said.
In September, the day is changing. When the sun was first inspected, the sun shone brightly, and a cool breeze blew over a dark cloud. It gradually became a strong wind, and the wind and rain were about to come.
At this time, the troops passing the inspection were just over halfway.
"Your Majesty, it's going to rain. Why don't you go back to the city to rest for a while and be inspecting the soldiers another day?" said a slightly sharp eunuch beside Zhao Zheng.
Ziying took a look and for some reason. Although she had never seen this person before, she felt unhappy when she heard him speak, and she was a little disliked no matter how she looked at him.
However, the King of Qin was in high spirits at this time, so he could care about this. "It's okay, some storms can't stop me from being a big Qin man. Today I will inspect the Qin army in this storm."
"General Wang, the sky is getting colder. Why don't you persuade the king to catch a cold if the king catches a cold!" Seeing that Zhao Zheng was unwilling to leave, the eunuch turned to Wang Jian and said. Perhaps only the words of Wang Jian, who had just won a great victory, could be heard from Zhao Zheng.
"Zhao Mansion, the king is watching the army at this time, so it is better not to disturb him." Wang Jian replied. Obviously, he was unwilling to disturb Zhao Zheng's elegant ambition, not to mention that as the commander of the Qin army, he naturally had to consider the soldiers. For some middle and lower-level generals, being able to pass by and demonstrate his military achievements in front of the king is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
If you return to the city this time, you won’t know when the chance will be like this next time.
Because Ziying stood close to Wang Jian, Ziying heard the words of the two clearly, and then she realized the identity of the eunuch.
Wang Jian called him the Zhao Mansion Order. At this time, the surname was Zhao, and there was only one person who served as the CSRC Mansion Order.
It was at the end of the Qin Dynasty that Zhao Gao, the powerful minister who was killed by Ziying in history.
