Chapter 036 Shackles the Prime Minister of the Left

"Your dear, don't panic so much. I still have a few major matters that will take one month to deal with. But I'm begging you to stay in the palace for one month?" After Fusu said that, he bent down to Wei Liao and bowed.

"Old minister obeys the order!" Wei Liao saw that he could not refuse, so he had to obey the order.

"Left Prime Minister Li Si participated in the forgery of edicts and plotting rebellion. What do the old lieutenant have?" Meng Tian saw that the time was coming, so he quickly asked.

"Li Si's crime should be implicated in the nine tribes, but at this moment, the talent of the Qin Dynasty was not accepted. Moreover, the governance plan of the Qin Dynasty was mostly done by Li Si, and he was most familiar with it. I proposed to confiscate Li Si's property, and all the tribe members were demoted to common people. Li Si himself was dismissed from office and retained, and he had to wear shackles every day when he went to court." Wei Liao replied.

"Shackle Prime Minister?" Fusu, Meng Tian, ​​and Feng Quji exclaimed at the same time.

"Li You is currently the magistrate of Sanchuan County, how to deal with it?" Fusu consulted Wei Liao again.

"Li Youke, the governor of Sanchuan County, recalled Xianyang, explained the reasons to him, and then decided according to his attitude." Wei Liao seemed to have considered it a long time ago and responded without any ambiguity.

"I will make a decision tomorrow. Please move to Xianyang Palace to discuss the military affairs of the Qin Dynasty." Fusu said.

"Abide by the holy order!" Wei Liao, who likes military affairs the most, shined with his eyes.

After dinner, everyone went to the study where Emperor Qin Shi’s affairs were handled, and Feng Jie was also among them at this moment.

Fusu thought for a while and said, "I believe that my dear friends have received the news that the nobles of the six countries are ready to move and are running secretly to contact and prepare to rebel. However, at this moment, Guanzhong is empty and there are no soldiers to adjust. The defenders of each pass are mainly ordinary people, and there are only a few regular soldiers. What good advice do you have to deal with such a crisis?"

When the six countries were wiped out, Wei Liao made plans for the deployment of the country's troops. At this moment, everyone looked at Wei Liao together. Zhao Tuo fought south to Baiyue and brought 300,000 elite troops, but could not go north.

Wei Liao also felt that the situation was serious, so he asked back: "When I wiped out the six countries in the past, which country was the most difficult?"

"Zhao State." Feng Jie said without hesitation.

Everyone looked at Wei Liao again, and only then heard Wei Liao's voice suddenly ignite: "It's wrong! Li Xin's 200,000 army was defeated, and the Chu State, which had only been 600,000 army in General Wang Jian's 600,000 army in a few years, was deeply rooted."

Everyone looked at each other, but Fusu still unconsciously said: "How do you think you can face the current situation?"

"Immediately, General Meng Tian led the 10,000 Jiuyuan cavalry guarding Xianyang to patrol the old land of Chu, and also appointed Li Xin to command the army stationed in Jiuyuan Cloud in Shangjun, and transferred Wang Li to lead 50,000 cavalry back to Guanzhong to wait for his order. General Feng Jie led 20,000 Jiuyuan cavalry from Xianyang to go out from Shangdang to monitor the movements of Julu in Handan, and at the same time threatened the remnants of South Korea." Wei Liao said gasping.

"Tomorrow, General Feng will order troops according to the instructions of the old lieutenant. Meng Aiqing and the old lieutenant stayed to discuss some things with me. Two days later, according to the lieutenant's words, go out to patrol the old land of Chu, and the rest should retreat."

"Abide by the order."

The three people in the study were silent. After drinking herbal tea for a while, Wei Liao began to speak: "The military forces in Guanzhong are empty. The old Qin people were killed and injured in the war. The Jiuyuan army is the most elite Qin army at present. However, they need to be guarded against the Huns. There are hundreds of thousands of old Qin people defending in Nanyue. How can Your Majesty recruit the army?"

Fusu thought for a while and said, "Zhang Han, Shaofu, may understand the development of the people in the world, and wait for Zhang Han to come to discuss tomorrow."

Wei Liao and Meng Tian nodded and acquiesced. Fusu said again: "In the past, when we fought against the six kingdoms, our Great Qin was able to suffer a great defeat in Chu. It can be seen that the Chu State is very capable. Meng Aiqing needs to pay more attention to the investigation of the good and bad officials in Chu and the talented people in the mountains and fields, especially those who have lost their old nobles. Once a talented person is discovered, he can be brought back to Xianyang first for me to investigate. Once he meets a young and talented person, he will also bring it back."

Meng Tian bowed and said, "I must serve Your Majesty with all my heart and strength and recommend great talents to the country."

Fusu turned to Wei Liao and said, "General Li Xin retired for many years, but I wonder if he can take office according to the imperial edict?"

Although Wei Liao is very good at strategy and military affairs, he is not a specialty in hiring people.

At this time, Meng Tian took the speech: "As far as I know, General Li Xin has never stopped studying military strategies and formations. It can be seen that he is unwilling to be defeated by the failure to destroy Chu. He must prove himself again. However, Your Majesty must remind Li Xin not to underestimate the enemy and advance rashly."

Meng Tian is famous for his popularity. Even Li Si's son Li You is a student of Meng Tian. When he said this, his credibility was very high, and Wei Liao nodded.

Fusu said: "Why not wait until you receive the news of Li Xin going to work before mailing Wang Li to transfer?"

It was Wei Liao's turn to reflect his wisdom: "The military situation is urgent and urgent. You can order the summoned envoy to bring two edicts to General Li Xin at the same time. Once Li Xin takes office according to the edict, he will follow Li Xin to Jiuyuan to summon Major General Wang Li."

"This plan is very wonderful!" Fusu and Meng Tian praised.

Fusu said again: "The thief Zhao Gao is an eunuch, and there are many remaining parties in the palace. Can the two beauties have good solutions?"

After thinking for a long time, Meng Tian said slowly: "Can the eunuch of the late emperor go to Afang Palace to serve the palace servants of the six countries. The imperial guards are replaced by His Majesty's personal army in the Jiuyuan Army. The maids will be sent back to their hometowns. Your Majesty will reorganize the harem." Wei Liao had no good plans, so he acquiesced, and Fusu dispersed without shame.

The next day, everyone was surprised to find that Wei Liao, who had not seen for more than ten years, appeared in the court. Officials from all over the world reported the national trends. What was particularly shocking was that the former place of Zhao State actually began to raise anti-flags. The nobles led by Li Mu's grandson Li Zuoche organized hundreds of thousands of rebels to support King Zhao in Julu.

In addition, many signs of rebellion were frequently found in the Jiangdong area of ​​the former land of Chu. In addition, there were signs of surging in the former land of Wei and South Korea.

Fusu first issued three decrees: First, all the eunuchs from Xianyang Palace went to Afang Palace to serve the deceased Six Kingdoms Palace people; second, the five thousand personal soldiers of Fusu replaced the original imperial guards to guard Xianyang Palace in the Jiuyuan Army in Xianyang; third, General Feng Jie could lead 20,000 Jiuyuan cavalry to Shangdang to deploy defense and pay close attention to the movements of Li Zuoche's rebels, and no attack was allowed without an imperial order.

After the court was dispersed, Fusu left behind Meng Tian, ​​Wei Liao, Zhang Han, Li Si, and Luo Dechang. In the study, Li Si knelt in front of the Fusu case and kowtowed: "The criminal minister cannot atone for his sins after death. I ask Your Majesty to give me the punishment of splitting the car."

Fusu said fiercely: "Li Si should punish the nine clans for rebels. However, I think you are a talented man in governing the country, and I still need to use your talents, but you are dead from today."

Li Si was grateful and bowed to the ground and did not dare to speak. Then Fusu talked about Wei Liao's plan yesterday, changing the shackles to work in the study with shackles, and dismissed all positions and titles, and all the tribe members were sent to build straight roads for Qin.

Li Si came back from the gates of hell and was surprised and quickly thanked Shengyou. Next, Fusu raised the issue of yesterday's recruitment to Zhang Han, Shaofu.

Zhang Han said: "The current tax reduction in Guanzhong is due to the fact that there are no strong men involved in farming. I hope Your Majesty will not recruit the labor force of the people, otherwise Guanzhong will be unstable and the country of Qin will be in a crisis."

Fusu had no choice but to: "Where can you have a strategy to supplement the army according to your wishes?"

Li Si, who was wearing shackles, spoke: "Can the Jiuyuan army mobilize another 100,000 to move south?"

Meng Tian immediately analyzed: "The Hu people of the Huns have not gone south for more than ten years. The scouts recently discovered that they have frequently sent spies to inquire. I guess the north is starting to be uneasy, and it is already the limit of defense to draw 50,000 Jiuyuan Army."

Everyone knew that 50,000 people were far from enough. Fusu turned his head blankly and looked at the other ministers, and only heard Wei Liao say slowly: "Half of the defenders can be drawn from the passes in the old Qin land to form a new army to deal with the crisis."

At this time, Fusu began to strongly object: "The world is floating and people are unstable. Once the people of Guanzhong do not feel safe, the Qin Dynasty will fall in an instant, and the defenders of each pass must not be transferred."

Zhang Han, who had been thinking for a long time, began to speak: "I dare to ask Your Majesty to forgive me."

Fusu wondered: "What are your faults?"

Zhang Han said: "I have a suggestion that I can replenish the army, but it is not in line with Qin's law. Please forgive me."

Everyone was very excited, and Fusu said, "But come and listen, I give you no guilt."

Zhang Han bowed his hands and said, "There are nearly one million prisoners in Mount Li, and there are many young and powerful people, so they can be organized into a large army."

As soon as this said, Meng Tian stood up and said, "This plan is extremely dangerous! Once the prisoner turns against the enemy at the last minute, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Wei Liao was originally lowered his eyebrows and closed his eyes as if he was entering a meditation. After hearing this news, he woke up instantly, and his mouth was so big that he blushed and shouted four words: "It is against the way of military affairs!"

Fusu was also very shocked, but as an emperor, he just sat in front of the audience to respond. He found that Li Si was wearing shackles at the end of the room, so he called out: "What do Li Si have any opinions?"

Li Si knelt in the middle and said slowly: "The sinners think that the strategy of Zhang Shaofu is feasible. First of all, Shang Jun once issued a decree to abolish slavery. Now, the children of slaves can be trained to become a new army. The Shaofu Master said that the people who cultivated the Guanzhong period were insufficient to reduce taxes, and it was just right to use the benefits to allow the children of slaves who could not fight to arrange for farming to farm, which demonstrated the great grace of the emperor. As for the prisoners, most of them were criminals, and there were many strong people, so they could form an army without much training. The Shaofu Master could be trained. Another 20,000 Jiuyuan army of General Feng Jie was sent to Julu to eliminate Li Zuoche's rebels."

Li Si's analysis made everyone think.

After a long time, Fusu looked up and said, "Let's implement it according to Li Si's strategy, arrange slaves who meet the conditions for war to go to the Lantian camp to step up the training. After the army was formed, a unit of prisoners was sent to Julu soon to wipe out the rebels."

Luo Dechang was already the CRRC government order at this time, so he was naturally responsible for drafting edicts and government orders. This secret envoy of the Jinyiwei who came from the Ming Dynasty was full of knowledge and had a lot of research on ancient characters. The Qin Dynasty was easy to write, and he quickly drafted the imperial edict and handed it over to Fusu (Jiuxiong) for review.
