Chapter 571: King Qin Shocked
Zhao Kuo stared at Lian Jing who was kneeling in front of him and said lightly: "Lian Jing, you and Leqi did not obey the military order of this marquis to attack without authorization, killing so many soldiers of the Great Zhao. It's really worth the death! Come on, take this marquis to this marquis and take this marquis back to Handan to wait for the Empress Dowager to take the lead!"
Lian Jing was shocked at first when he heard this, then he was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, please!"
It sounds strange, why did Zhao Kuo take Lian Jing down and Lian Jing thank Zhao Kuo?
In fact, the reason is very simple - Zhao Kuo can kill Lian Jing, and he let everyone including the Empress Dowager, Lian Po and others kill Lian Jing in a speechless manner, but Zhao Kuo did not do so.
As long as Lian Jing is taken back to Handan, his father Lian Po will naturally find a way to rescue Lian Jing.
So, Zhao Kuo actually spared Lian Jing's life! Seeing Lian Jing being taken away happily, Zhao Kuo shook his head slightly, and was actually a little disappointed.
"Although the veteran General Lian Po is not very good at dealing with this marquis, he is at least a talented general. Why is Lian Jing so incompetent that he can't even beat the Huns?"
It can only be said that not every tiger father can cultivate a tiger son.
Education is very important! As time goes by, the news that Zhao Kuo defeated the Huns in one fell swoop outside Pingyin City began to spread to other vassal states in the world.
The King of Qin is in a good mood recently.
Since Zhao Kuo conquered Xianyang and captured it, the King of Qin could not hold on under tremendous psychological pressure and began to get sick.
This disease is called "internal fire attack" by doctors. The suggestion given is to hope that the King of Qin can handle government affairs as little as possible, not be overly angry, and rest more on weekdays, etc.
The King of Qin was a person who cherished his life. After all, his father, King Qin Zhao, Yingji, was the king of Qin for 49 years, and he was already forty-four years old when the King of Qin succeeded to the throne.
I haven't been a king for a few years, so I have to cherish it.
So, the King of Qin began to decentralize some of the not-so-important national affairs and hand over to the Crown Prince Ying Zichu to deal with.
Ying Zichu was not stupid either. With Lu Buwei's guidance, Ying Zichu entered the palace almost every day, respectfully reported to the King of Qin briefly, and by the way, he could also talk with the King of Qin and have a meal.
In Lu Buwei's words, it is "to make the king know the respect of the prince, and to make the subjects know the filial piety of the prince", which is a real killing of two birds with one stone.
On this day, the King of Qin and Ying Zichu walked side by side in the garden of the Qin Palace.
The golden fallen leaves of autumn fall from the branches in the wind, and were stepped on by the boots of the Qin King and his son, making a rustling sound.
Ying Zichu was speaking: "Father, Li Bing, the governor of Shu County, yesterday, submitted a memorial saying that the flood in Shu County was serious and hoped to recruit prisoners and young men would build a new weir to deal with the flood.
According to Li Bing, if this weir can be successfully built, the water disaster in Shu is expected to be cured!"
Unlike the Shu area, which was later called the "Tianfu Country", in this era, due to the spread of rivers and lack of water conservancy projects, during the rainy season, flooding and destroying farmland crops and houses during the flood season, resulting in many places that are obviously very flat and fertile but cannot be cultivated at all.
The King of Qin narrowed his eyes and said, "How many farmers do he want to recruit?"
Ying Zichu thought for a while and said, "According to the memorials, all the prisoners in Shu County should be conscripted every year, and some young and strong people should be conscripted depending on the situation. The work time should be based on about 15,000 people, and the working time should be about five months per year."
The King of Qin snorted and said with some displeasure: "Ten 5,000 people, five months, this is not a number that can be ignored.
What about your opinion?"
Ying Zichu said respectfully: "My son thinks that although Li Bing's move is harmful to the people's strength, if he can really build his so-called "Dujiangyan", it will be beneficial to the long-term Qin and Shu.
In the eyes of the son-in-law, it is only necessary to send officials to strictly supervise, so as not to cause corruption in the construction process, and not to reduce the quality of the project."
King Qin nodded, waved his hand and said, "Just do it."
For the King of Qin, such internal affairs are actually not very important.
Ying Zichu observed his words and expressions, and knew what his father was thinking, so he changed the subject very cleverly: "Have you heard of it?"
Recently, the Huns invaded and defeated the Zhao army in Pingyin.
The Zhao State Grand Sima Lecheng's brother Leqi was killed in battle, and the Zhao State border cavalry army was killed or injured more than 10,000 people."
When the King of Qin mentioned this, he immediately became happy and smiled and said, "How can I not know about this?
The people of Zhao have always started wars everywhere because of their own strength. This time, they finally let them experience the trouble of being invaded by other countries!"
Ying Zichu smiled and said, "That's true. I believe that when the princes in the world heard this news, they were all celebrating each other!"
The King of Qin laughed and said, "Although Zhao Kuo has a famous general like Zhao Kuo, it has not won every battle over the years. This country is so powerful and will sooner or later decline like Wei, Qi, and Chu in the past!"
The father and son were chatting and laughing. The eunuchs from Qin State ordered him to come quickly, but they wanted to speak but stopped.
The King of Qin said lightly: "Tell me."
The eunuch ordered: "Report to the great king, the information I just obtained, Zhao Kuo, the king of Zhao State, defeated the Huns outside Pingyin City and beheaded more than 20,000 yuan.
He also set up Jingguan outside Pingyin City, with 20,000 heads like a mountain, which is amazing!”
This news directly shocked the Qin King and his son at the same time.
The King of Qin took a deep breath and said, "Jingguan?
A Jingguan with a 20,000-level head?"
When saying this, the King of Qin was trembling.
Ying Zichu on the other side changed her face. Although the prince has not been pampered since childhood, he has never been to the battlefield. He may have to vomit for half a day with a head in front of him, and more than 20,000 heads... Ying Zichu suddenly felt that his abdomen was a little overturned, and he hurriedly restrained his desire to vomit.
The eunuch nodded, his tone was very heavy: "That's true, Zhao Kuo even said something."
The King of Qin said: "What do you mean?"
The eunuch ordered: "Those who offend me, Da Zhao, will be punished even if they are far away!"
The atmosphere suddenly became silent.
Ying Zichu stood beside the King of Qin, and his face began to turn pale.
What a domineering sentence! The strength and confidence revealed from it are amazing.
Combined with the Jingguan built with 20,000 heads, you can imagine how shocked the princes should be when this news spread to other vassal states in the world! Wu Xinjun is indeed worthy of being Wu Xinjun, and every move is earth-shaking.
Just when Ying Zichu was shocked, the King of Qin beside him suddenly laughed.
"Okay, good Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo, he is so cruel to take action! But he didn't think about it. The Huns were far away from the grassland thousands of miles away. Could it be that Zhao Kuo could still chase the grassland and drive all the Huns to kill them?
Ridiculous, really ridiculous, hahaha——”
