Hearing Doctor Sanlu mention that the young master is carrying the cud, the head of Qu Jingzhao's three clans also looked at Doctor Sanlu meaningfully. The position of Doctor Sanlu was a position specially created by the State of Chu to govern the three clans of Qu Jingzhao. He was in charge of the three clans. Sacrifice and everyday disputes.
In the beginning, the position of Sanlu doctor was assigned by the King of Chu to supervise the three clans. However, as the power of the three clans became more and more powerful, this position arranged by the King of Chu gradually became one of the three clansmen of Qu Jingzhao. One person is selected to represent and mediate the conflicts between the three tribes.
"If you hadn't told me, Mr. Fu Chu, I would have forgotten that there is such a powerful person in the Chu State." The head of the Zhao family said. Mr. Fu Chu has always had a low reputation in the court of the Chu State in order to protect himself. On weekdays, he behaves like He was a fair-weather man, but he didn't expect that this man also had ambitions for the throne.
"Forbearing what ordinary people cannot bear, and planning things that ordinary people cannot imagine, this young master looks like Gou Jian, the former King of Yue." said the head of the Qu family.
After saying this, the head of the Qu family had a mocking smile on his face. Others also showed the same smile. Doctor Sanlu said
"Now Xiang Yan has Lord Changping as an ally, and Lord Changping will definitely target us once he gains power. Lord Changping has the status of a young master, and so does Fu Chu. If we support the young master Fu Chu, then we will I have a spearhead to fight with Xiang Yan."
After Doctor Sanlu finished speaking, he looked at the thinking leader of the three clans, Qu Jingzhao. Although he was jointly promoted by the three clans to take charge of the sacrifices and daily affairs of the three clans, he was actually for outsiders to see. All matters big and small were done by the three clans. The patriarch of the clan handles the matter. Once a problem arises, he, the Sanlv doctor, is the first to take the blame.
Looking at the three people who were still hesitant, they continued.
"This Young Master is also a mediocre person. If we support him to become the King of Chu, the entire Chu Kingdom will be ruled by our three families."
The heads of the three clans looked at each other and asked
"Are you sure this Fu Chu is a mediocre person? Don't think he is really Gou Jian, the king of Yue."
"The three patriarchs can meet this Fuchu in person. He has long wanted to talk to the patriarchs." Doctor Sanlu said.
"Let them come to Zuimenglou at noon tomorrow to talk about it," said the head of the Qu family.
After the meeting of the three clans, Doctor Sanlu returned to his house, opened the secret room of the study and said to the people in the room.
"Sir, the heads of the three clans have agreed to meet Fu Chu."
"Very good, you must facilitate this matter, sir, I will not treat you badly." The person in charge of Luowang Chu State said.
"Nuo, I will be appointed as sir and serve the State of Qin." Doctor Sanlu said.
After King Wei received Lian Po's reply, King Zeng of Wei, who had been weak and mediocre all his life, actually had the courage to send all the remaining troops in the country to Shangcai and other places to resist Qin's attack, and at the same time mobilize domestic grain and grass to support Lian Po. quite.
When South Korea saw that Wei was ready to defend the border and continue to attack Chu, they all cried out that they couldn't afford it. Just when they were preparing to discuss peace, Wei Wangzeng saw this and sent his servants to South Korea. Wei Wangzeng knew that Wei wanted to If they want to completely occupy the land captured by Chu, South Korea cannot retreat first.
In order to stabilize South Korea, King Wei gave South Korea a lot of benefits. Lian Po and Wei Zhuang on the front lines also breathed a sigh of relief and began to prepare fully for the return of the Chu army.
People from hundreds of families saw that Wei Wangzeng had the courage to fight against the Chu State. Wei Wangzeng's reputation improved a lot for a while. Some famous celebrities who had lived in seclusion in Wei began to come out and wanted to join Wei as officials. This made Wei Wangzeng smile with joy. He thought that it was impossible to get back the land conquered by the Qin State, so it was better to find some compensation from the Chu State, but he did not expect that there would be so many benefits.
When Xianyang learned that Han, Wei and Chu were going to continue to waste their lives, they provided all kinds of support. On the one hand, they asked Yang Duanhe, Li Xin, and Feng Wuze to stop the attack to give Wei a chance. On the other hand, they asked Chang Wenjun to secretly agree. Support Li Yuan, and at the same time let Luo Wang continue to help Fu Chu, and also mobilized 100,000 troops to be placed in Nanjun's non-rebellious city. It looked like he could regain Nanjun at any time, so Xiang Liang, who was originally prepared to return to aid, had to leave the main force to defend against Qin Army, he brought one-third of his troops back to support.
The current state of Chu seems to be calm, and all the energy is focused on the external war, but the secret battles have not stopped at all. Lord Changping looked at his assassin who committed suicide, and waved his hand, signaling for the guards to carry him away. .
"Master, are you okay?" Xiang Liang, who came after hearing the sound, looked at Changping Jun and asked.
"It's okay. I was assassinated before I reached Shouchun. It seems that someone in Chu State doesn't want me to go back alive." Lord Changping said helplessly while looking at the dark sky.
Regarding the assassination on the road, Lord Changping was actually prepared, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon, while he and Xiang Liang were attacking Pingxing.
"Do these people really not care about the safety of Chu State?" Xiang Liang said angrily. He also knew that Lord Changping was not popular in Chu State, but now they are attacking the Korean army occupying Pingxing, so they sent people to assassinate the people in the military camp. Once Lord Changping was assassinated, the morale of Chu State would be greatly shaken.
"Now we should focus on the overall situation. Suppress this matter first. Don't let it spread. We should capture Pingxing as soon as possible and join General Xiang Yan. As for those young people, we will naturally have a chance to deal with them." Lord Changping seemed to be ordinary. said, but the clenched fists under his sleeves showed that he was not so calm.
"Young Master, please stay safe in the army these days. I will send someone to protect you." Xiang Liang said. Lord Changping is very important to the Xiang family. If the Xiang family wants to continue to survive in the Chu Kingdom, they must find a person who is reliable enough. alliance.
"Thank you, General Xiang Liang." Lord Changping said.
As Lord Changping stayed in the military camp, he stopped going out, and the surrounding soldiers guarded Lord Changping's tent on three levels inside and three outside.
Lian Po looked at the stalemate and knew that it would be useless to drag it out any longer, so he turned his army and began to attack Cheng Fu desperately. Before the Chu State had time to react, Cheng Fu was captured by Lian Po. Qu Jingzhao and his family saw that Cheng Fu was captured by Lian Po. When Cheng Fu was captured, he couldn't sit still. You must know that the Qu family's ancestral hall and a large number of clan members were there.
Just at this time, Changping Jun and Xiang Liang relied on their numerical advantage to capture Pingxing and were preparing to join forces with Xiang Yan to regain the ground. In order to prevent Changping Jun and Xiang Yan's reputation from rising again, the three clans of Li Yuan and Qu Jingzhao made a decisive choice. Negotiated peace.
When Han Wei saw that the Chu State was thinking of negotiating peace, they decisively sent their attendants. Xiang Yan, who was about to counterattack, was so angry that he almost killed the King of Chu's attendants when he saw the news of the peace negotiation. However, considering that the entire Chu State was still dominated by the three clans of Li Yuan and Qu Jingzhao, To control it, we can only endure it, stop attacking and prepare to negotiate peace.
Seeing the peace talks between the three kingdoms of Han, Wei and Chu, Qin had no intention of blocking the peace talks between the three kingdoms. They could not let Lord Changping and Xiang Yan grow bigger, and Han and Wei were destined to no longer be an obstacle to Qin's unification of the world. It would be better to completely eliminate them. Xu and Shangcai and other places were well managed.
Now Ying Zheng, Wang Jian, Meng Wu and Lu Buwei are looking at the items created by Qin Mo.
"Teacher, can these three things really improve the combat effectiveness of Qin's cavalry?" Ying Zheng said looking at the three things in front of him.
There are three iron objects on the table, and there are exactly the same objects on the horse not far away.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, these three things can definitely make our Qin cavalry's combat power reach a higher level." Ziyou said with confidence. Horses, stirrups, saddles and horseshoes are the three treasures of cavalry. With these three things, we cannot say that we can give up. The Qin cavalry became the strongest cavalry in the world. With a little training, they could defeat the Huns cavalry without any difficulty.
Xiang Liguan began to explain the uses of these three items to Ying Zheng and other senior military officials. Listening to the benefits of Ma Sanbao, the senior military officials' eyes gleamed. Ying Zheng naturally understood that if this was true, it would be very important to Qin's cavalry. How important it is.
"I want to try it myself." After Ying Zheng finished speaking, he walked towards the white horse in the distance.
Ying Zheng grabbed the saddle with one hand, stepped on the stirrup with one foot, turned over and got on the white horse, and began to ride the horse and whip in the royal garden. With the support of the stirrup, Ying Zheng found that it was much more convenient to shoot arrows on horseback. Use one hand to stabilize your body, and both hands can be freed.
Ying Zheng took the bow and aimed the arrow at the target, and the arrow hit the bull's-eye with a clang. Zhao Gao applauded immediately when he saw this scene. As a servant of the King of Qin, one of his responsibilities is to applaud Ying Zheng when he shows off. .
Others stared at Ying Zheng on horseback and began to simulate in their minds that if the Qin army's cavalry were equipped with Ma Sanbao, they would become a powerful force with just a little training.
Ying Zheng reined in the horse, turned over and dismounted, Zhao Gao Gao climbed up with a sweat towel, Ying Zheng said with a smile on his face
"This horse three treasures is indeed a sharp weapon. If it is equipped with the whole army, our Great Qin cavalry will be able to sweep the world in just a few days."
"No, Your Majesty, Ma Sanbao is of great importance. If the equipment of the entire army is leaked out rashly, it will greatly increase the enemy's strength." Wang Jian stepped forward and said.
"It makes sense. Ma Sanbao's matter is of great importance. The news must be blocked. If anyone dares to leak it, the three clans will be punished." Ying Zheng said sternly.
"No!" Everyone present said in unison. They also knew the importance of this matter, especially those in the military. At the same time, they began to figure out how to equip the first batch of Ma Sanbao with their own armies.
"This horse treasure cannot be discarded. It can be gradually equipped in the army, but it must be kept secret and not leaked." Ying Zheng said after thinking for a while.
For a while, several high-level military officials began to compete for the allocation of Ma Sanbao. Looking at the military bosses who were arguing endlessly and wanted to take action, Ying Zheng also had a big problem. No matter who he gave it to, it would be unfair to the others. If it was divided equally. The difficulty of keeping secrets has increased, and on the other hand, Ma Sanbao cannot play its role.
"It is better to set up a new army. Xianyang is currently only guarded by imperial guards. It is better to set up another army and equip the first batch of Ma Sanbao into this army." Ziyou suggested.
"What do you think, teacher?" Ying Zheng asked.
The generals who were still arguing also looked over, wanting to hear what Ziyou thought.
"Now Xianyang can only rely on the defense of Lishan Camp and Lantian Camp in addition to the imperial guards of Xianyang. However, the armies of the two camps are fighting outside all year round, and there is still some time to go from Xianyang. It is better to set up another army. Specialized in protecting Xianyang and Qin Palace.
This army is personally commanded by the king and does not belong to the military hierarchy. No one else is allowed to mobilize except the king. This army can be divided into eight guards." Ziyou followed the eight camps of the Han Dynasty in later generations: Zhongba and Tunqi. , Infantry, Yueqi, Changshui, Huqi, Shesheng, and Huben expressed their ideas.
"This army is composed of all the elites in the army and those who are loyal to the king. Combat strength and loyalty are equally important. Now during the formation period, the elites can be selected from the army. When it is formed, they can be selected from the descendants of the soldiers who died in battle and trained from an early age to ensure that The king’s loyalty.”
Listening to Ziyou's words, Ying Zheng became more and more convinced that it was feasible. The only army directly under the clan's control had always been the Imperial Guards, but the Imperial Guards also belonged to the army and were not exclusive to his army. A king without an army would be... A big problem is that now that Ying Zheng has conquered the military, it is inevitable that future generations will not have problems, so it is necessary to establish an army that belongs exclusively to the king.
The generals of the army looked at each other calmly. They naturally knew what the purpose behind Ziyou's proposal was. It was nothing more than to increase the king's army strength so as to better stabilize his position. Although Ying Zheng did not need it, it did not mean that the latter would People didn't need it, and they didn't say anything. Instead, they began to discuss the organization of the army.
Because Ziyou had already proposed the approximate establishment and personnel, they naturally discussed the organizational status and staffing. In the end, several people and Ying Zheng determined the approximate number of people. The initial number was set at 15,000. After the establishment, Define it and then gradually expand it.
"Then what is the name of this new army?" Meng Wu asked.
"Feathering wings for the country is like the prosperity of the forest and the feathering of the forest army." Ziyou said.
"Good name. The selection and formation of the Yulin Army are personally responsible for the selection and formation of the Yulin Army. Elite and loyal people are selected from the Lishan Camp, Lantian Camp, border troops and imperial guards. At the same time, the families of the nobles who died in the battle are asked if their Children who are willing to join the Yulin Army can enter through selection," Ying Zheng said.
"promise!"
But another problem also arises, that is, if the Habayashi Army is established according to Ziyou's plan, it will be a huge expense. Because of the independence of the Habayashi Guards, this also means that it is impossible to support money from the court, otherwise it will be easy Because issues such as military pay affect the Yulin Guards, if the Shaofu is asked to pay, it is very likely that they will not be able to support the Yulin Guards.
According to Ziyou, the Yulin Guards are not only the elite among the elite, but are also divided into eight different arms. The training of each arm consumes a lot of money every moment, not to mention military pay and daily food. , Ziyou's imagination was so luxurious that the Yulin Guards had three meals a day and meat every day, so Li Xin wanted to join the Yulin Guards. Even the Lantian Camp only had one or two meals a month to give the soldiers a bit of meat. Have a taste.
"It's up to me to figure this out. When you go back, you just need to select the best." Ying Zheng said.
"No!" Seeing what Ying Zheng said, the others naturally had no objection.
