A few days later.
News that the civil war in Kuaiji County was settled reached Xianyang City.
A group of iron cavalry, filled with iron-blooded evil energy, roared from outside the city and headed straight for the imperial city!
"The unrest in southern Xinjiang has been subsided, and South Vietnam has retreated!"
Da Qin's cavalry galloped on the streets, and wherever they passed along the way, pedestrians and merchants gave way to their seats.
"The war in southern Xinjiang has been settled!"
"Phew, what a relief!"
"I wonder what the situation is?"
Some people were excited about the great power of the Qin Empire in suppressing the unrest in South Vietnam.
Because their family members are in the military, they can gain military titles and receive rewards.
Some people were relieved that they could go to Kuaiji County to do business and transport goods.
At the same time, some people are very curious about the situation there.
In Xianyang Palace.
Da Qin ordered the cavalry to roar into the palace gate.
He got off his horse and galloped to the main hall.
"I'll wait to see His Majesty the First Emperor!"
The black armored man bowed respectfully: "The war in southern Xinjiang has been settled, and South Vietnam has been defeated."
"Now Meng Tian, Wang Li and other generals are gathering at Zhuyang Pass to regain the lost city."
When the civil and military officials in the court heard this, they all smiled and said respectfully: "I congratulate the empire and congratulate your majesty!"
The first emperor, Ying Zheng, looked delighted, showed a smile, and said: "All the soldiers in southern Xinjiang have worked hard. I will reward you well after we conquer South Vietnam and return to Xianyang!"
"His Majesty!"
The black armored soldier respectfully reported: "Now the frontline army is resting and reorganizing, and Generals Meng Tian, Wang Jian and other generals intend to send troops to attack South Vietnam."
"Um!"
The First Emperor Ying Zheng nodded slightly and said, "I have given my permission for this matter."
Then he looked at Ying Ziye and asked, "Ziye, how is the progress of the food, grass, medicinal wine and other medicines you prepared?"
"Reply to Father!"
Ying Ziye bowed his hand and said, "Now the medicinal wine has been made by the Shaofu, and three hundred thousand jars have been stored."
"As for food, grass and other items, it is enough for the army to go out for three months."
"Especially now that taxes are stable, my sons and ministers will continue to buy food and transport it to the front line to support the war!"
The Shaofu can be said to be a department dedicated to serving the royal family. It is so huge that it is like a small country.
There are countless craftsmen and workers inside!
A real-name workmanship system has even been developed. In every manufacturing step, every craftsman will engrave the name of the producer on the item.
As well as assembly line engineering, each person is responsible for a manufacturing link.
Therefore, Da Qin Shaofu's production speed is extremely fast.
Ying Ziye smiled faintly and continued: "Besides, my ministers are gathering craftsmen to make warships."
"Mr. Gongshu Qiu is in charge of this production. There are ten building ships, fifty main warships with large wings, three hundred ships with middle wings, five hundred ships with small wings, hundreds of sudden warships, and a thousand bridge ships!"
"These ships have been modified with the public loser's overbearing machine skills."
"The surface of the ship is covered with a layer of iron to enhance its defense, and the collision angle of the sudden warship is even strengthened. While ensuring balance, the collision angle is entirely made of iron. As long as it hits any ship, it can be destroyed Breaks easily!"
"At the same time, ship crossbows have been added to building ships, large-wing, middle-wing and other warships. The ship's crossbow is huge, a foot wide, can break iron armor, and has great power to kill any living thing."
"And Gongshuqiu created a scull based on the fish tail, which can speed up the sailing speed of the warship, and a rudder, which can change the sailing direction of the ship, and also improved the sail..."
Ying Ziye introduced the ship's improvements and offensive and defensive features. Finally, he stood up and looked south, waving his sleeves and rowing his hands, drawing a grand blueprint.
"At that time, Lou Chuan will lead the navy from Qidi, along the offshore line, and detour to the rear of South Vietnam."
"Attach the water and land armies at the same time to catch South Vietnam by surprise and be caught off guard!"
At this stage, if the navy wants to go deep into the sea, it can only use large ships such as building ships and large wings.
Otherwise, it will not be able to withstand the storm at sea.
Therefore, the Great Qin navy can only follow the offshore line, which is safer.
"I actually thought of using iron sheets as warship protection, and even using iron to make the warship's collision angle, which can still maintain sufficient buoyancy and balance."
The First Emperor couldn't help but admired: "The public loser's overbearing machine skills are worthy of being born in war!"
"This strategy is also feasible. It perfectly bypasses the complex mountains and forests and attacks from the rear. It is a surprising force."
"Ziye, who do you think can take on the important task of commanding the navy?"
Ying Ziye bowed his hands and said, "Report to my father, my son and I recommend Wang Ben."
"The original water battle was the Qi State that Wang Ben destroyed. General Wang Ben has this experience and is familiar with it."
"I believe it is easier than others to control the navy, lead the army to sail, and attack South Vietnam!"
The words fell.
Don't wait for the First Emperor to ask questions.
Wang Ben stepped forward and bowed with a solemn face: "Your Majesty, I am willing to take orders to attack South Vietnam!"
Now that the empire is about to expand its territory, how can it be without him?
His old father Wang Jian had gone to fight in his seventies and eighties, and his son Wang Li was also there, so naturally he was not to be outdone.
What's more, it is easier to gain military merit in offensive warfare than in defensive warfare!
His father was the Imperial Marquis of Che, and he also became a Marquis of Che due to military merit without relying on inheriting the position of Marquis.
Now there are 6,000 households in the city!
Wang Ben's goal is to become a Marquis of Ten Thousand Households.
However, although he and his father Wang Jian were also imperial marquises, they were loyal, so why did Great Qin give everything.
The Wang family did not resist Ying Ziye's policy of drawing private soldiers from the nobles' fiefdoms. Instead, they actively participated and brought their own private soldiers into the battlefield.
"Can!"
The First Emperor Ying Zheng nodded slightly and approved the matter.
Then he looked at Ying Ziye and said, "Ziye, now you are preparing military rations, medicinal wine, and countless other resources for the empire to attack South Vietnam."
"Whatever you want, just ask."
Ying Ziye did not refuse, but said respectfully: "My son wants an imperial edict!"
The words fell slowly.
It aroused the intense interest of the civil and military ministers in the main hall, and their hearts were shaken violently, and they were shocked.
Doubts appeared on the faces of each courtier.
"You want an imperial edict?!"
All the officials were in disbelief and couldn't help but speculate: "Could it be that His Majesty the First Emperor wants to make him the crown prince?"
"But the Eighth Young Master shouldn't be so stupid!"
"How can it be possible to use this matter to award a reward and ask for the position of prince..."
It wasn't just the courtiers who were confused.
The First Emperor Ying Zheng also looked puzzled, and even guessed in his heart. He asked in confusion: "How should the imperial edict be written?"
Ying Ziye bowed and said, "I sincerely ask my father to issue an edict to summon the marquis from all over the world to Xianyang!"
