Chapter 498: The Ministry of Household Affairs is dispatched
"Brother, please wait a moment." Meng Tian said, "Even if important matters in the army need to be explained, I, the marshal, need to do so, otherwise it will cause unnecessary trouble."
"General Mengtian, please hurry up." Black Dragon defended.
Meng Tian nodded, then looked at Wang Li and others, and said in a deep voice: "Are you curious why I will hand over the position of marshal to Han Xin after I leave?"
"The general will not dare." Although Wang Li and others had doubts in their minds, they did not dare to violate the Emperor's imperial edict.
Meng Tian stretched out his hand to stop everyone, and said slowly: "I don't want to hear what you say against your will, but I want to tell you that Han Xin is more capable than me. Your Majesty knows this, the prince knows it, and I know it too.
So if you don't accept it, just hold it in. One day, you will be able to see Han Xin's ability.
If you don't listen to Han Xin's orders and get out of the Meng Family Army while I'm away, even if you're a stumbling block for him, you'll still leave the Meng Family Army for me.
In the Meng Family Army, both soldiers and generals must obey the marshal's orders. Anyone who disobeys will be executed. Do you understand? "
"No." Wang Li and other generals responded one after another.
Han Xin on the side was a little confused but also very moved.
It has been more than half a year since he came to the army, but he has not made any achievements in these more than half a year. Suddenly he was asked to serve as a temporary marshal. This appointment really surprised him.
"Marshal, I'm afraid I'm not qualified for the position of marshal." Han Xin said.
Meng Tian smiled and said: "Han Xin, I just said that I don't want to hear anything that goes against my will. Now tell me, are you qualified?
If you can, I will hand over the Meng Family Army to you.
No, I will fight to the death to help you disobey the Holy Order. "
Han Xin saw Meng Tian's smile disappear and became very serious, so he also restrained his application, knelt down on one knee and said to Meng Tian: "Thank you for your majesty and the marshal's trust. I will be able to do this. I swore in front of the marshal that I will lead Meng Tian." The general drove the Huns cavalry out again so that they would never dare to harass Da Qin again."
"I believe you." Meng Tian said, and helped Han Xin up with both hands.
Immediately afterwards, Meng Tian looked at Wang Li and the others and said: "My ability, Meng Tian, is to command an army of one million, and your ability is to command an army of one hundred thousand at most.
Han Xin, what about you? How many military tactics can you command? "
"Me?" Han Xin was stunned for a moment.
Meng Tian looked at Han Xin and said, "Answer me seriously."
"No." Han Xin bowed and said, "The more troops the marshal will lead, the better."
"Okay, haha..." Meng Tian laughed, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not misjudge the person, and His Majesty did not misjudge you, and neither did I.
You must not disappoint us. When I return to the border again, I hope you can obtain the land west of Hexi and drive out the Xiongnu completely. "
"No." Gaoxing replied solemnly.
Wang Tian and other generals never dreamed that Ying Zheng, Fu Su and Meng Tian all valued Han Xin so much. They really couldn't see what Han Xin was capable of.
In order to convince Wang Tian and others, Meng Tian also gave his sword to Han Xin and asked Han Xin to keep it temporarily.
Seeing this, everyone immediately understood what Meng Tian meant, so they all restrained their unwillingness and could only listen to Han Xin's words.
Then Meng Tian followed the Black Dragon Guard back to Xianyang City.
The meeting with the emperor's master cannot be delayed. If it were not for the purpose of stabilizing the army, Meng Tian would not have said so much and left directly with the Black Dragon Guard to return to Xianyang City.
Langya County, shipyard.
A group of businessmen and nobles from aristocratic families came to the outskirts of the shipyard.
There are hundreds of boats, large and small, parked here.
Whether they were businessmen or well-informed aristocratic nobles, they were all shocked by this scene.
"Oh my god, is this the boat we bought?" a nobleman exclaimed.
A businessman said: "No wonder it's so expensive. It's worth it. It's really worth it."
"I should have come earlier, so
I will buy a few more. ” said a businessman.
His words aroused the recognition of the people around him. They would buy the boat. In addition to the recommendation from the court, they also heard that the person who bought the boat last time made hundreds of thousands of taels in a trip to Baiyue. .
This time, the imperial court conveyed several policies, one was the management of Japan, the occupation of large islands, and the third was the occupation of countries such as the Maurya Dynasty, which shocked everyone inexplicably.
Even the remnants of the Six Nations have mobilized some hidden forces, such as nobles and businessmen from the original Six Nations who secretly support them.
They did not reach an agreement with the remnants of the Six Nations and bought a boat on their own initiative. Even if it was a fishing boat, they were very happy.
The person in charge of the remnants of the Six Nations, who learned of the situation, was dissatisfied with the former nobles and businessmen of the Six Nations who supported them, but there was nothing they could do.
At present, they can only hide their troops and horses in the mountains and survive by relying on the concealment and support of the people.
In particular, the support from the nobles and businessmen of the former six countries is very strong. If they offend this group of people, I am afraid no one will be willing to follow them.
This news also made the people in charge of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms very happy, because they finally had an excuse to leave Daqin and go overseas to build their power. After they developed, they would return to China to fight for everything that belonged to them.
The imperial court was also concerned about this matter, so it registered everyone who went to sea. Only the soldiers and horses of the Six Kingdoms were not recorded by the local officials.
For this reason, the Ministry of Household Affairs under Li Si's jurisdiction wrote a copy of all the household registrations in the country and sent it to the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Now a group of officials from the Ministry of Revenue and tens of thousands of Qin troops are guarding the dock. When the people boarding the ship arrive, they have to register one by one.
"Sir, you don't need to come in person, just leave everything here to your subordinates." Wang Zhe, the minister of household affairs, said.
Li Si waved his hand and said: "This is the first major event since His Majesty established the Sixth Department, and it was also done by our Household Department. If there are some mistakes in the process, it will not have a good impact on the Household Department and Your Majesty.
Moreover, I have made many enemies in the court. If someone gets caught, they will definitely beat me to death.
The household department will also be handed over to other people. I know everything about the household department, so I can manage the household department in an orderly manner. But if someone else serves as the secretary of the household department, do you think he can do it?
It's okay if he can do it, but if he doesn't and it delays His Majesty's important affairs, do you think he should bear the responsibility alone or hand you over to take the blame, or the entire household department should be dealt with together.
So colleagues, I won’t go into details about how important this mission is, and I won’t go into details about how serious the consequences will be if it is done wrong.
I said it was done. Not only would our household department be proud of us, but His Majesty would still remember it in his heart.
Don't underestimate this. Nowadays, the border has been reforming and changing. If a higher position appears, then the first person His Majesty will think of is the people from the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Whether we can be promoted or not depends on this. "
