The beating of drums sounded rhythmically. After Ziyou walked up to the generals' platform, it stopped. Meng Wu, Feng Wuze, Li Xin and Yang Duanhe stood under the generals' platform. The soldiers lined up neatly and looked at Click on Ziyou on the stage.
"They say you should say something inspiring before going to war. You even think that I am a disciple of Confucianism. What I say may be some big principles, such as being united with the country, etc. But in the end, what are you doing as a soldier? Military merit. , it’s a title, what do you need to exchange for it?" Ziyou asked, looking at the soldiers below.
"Heads, enemy heads!!" The soldiers shouted in unison. This is a consensus in the Qin State. The title of the Qin State cannot be hereditary and can only be exchanged for military merit. Having a title means having land and having land. If you have a woman, you will have the capital to continue the family line.
"So now the heads are in front. In every war, you can cut off the heads and go back alive to exchange for military merits. Use military merits to exchange for titles. Get the land and money that you have exchanged with your lives. Find a good wife. Give birth to two big fat boys!" Ziyou encouraged the soldiers below to burst out laughing.
What they are talking about is what they think, two acres of land, a life of wife and children, this is what they yearn for, and it is also the life they are most happy with.
"The Qin State owes its present state to the hard work of generations of great Qin warriors like you. You are the creators of today's Qin State, and you are also the creators of the future Qin State. What kind of Qin State will the future Qin State be like? ?
It is an unprecedented territory, with enough land. In the future, the people of Qin will be able to eat, wear clothes, and read books, and will not worry about attacks from other countries. Maybe none of us will See that day, but their children will see and enjoy that kind of Qin. Tell me, do you want to build such a Qin State? Do you want to see Qin like this? Do you want your children to stop worrying about having enough food, clothing, and clothing? "Ziyou's voice rang in everyone's ears like a loud bell.
The soldiers below all had sharp eyes and hot blood. They seemed to have seen the Qin State like that. They saw that their children were well fed, dressed, and studying in their country houses. No more foreign enemies would invade them. , roared in unison
"think!"
"Okay, now we are going to take this first step to capture South Korea and start the first step to unify the world. The battlefield is not a children's play. I can't guarantee that I will take all of you back completely. If you can't go back Go, Qin will properly handle your family members, your parents, your wives and children. Your family members will not be deprived of food and clothing, nor will they be bullied because of your departure. Not to mention that everything I have now will be lost because of your departure.
Our descendants will eventually see the Qin you are fighting for, and they will live in the Qin we long for. "Ziyou shouted.
"Wind! Wind! Wind!" The soldiers beat the ground with their spears.
"You don't have to worry about the sacrifices and incense being cut off after your death. From now on, the people will sing your names and integrate your names into the Qin State. I have discussed with the king that in the future, anyone who sacrifices his life for the country will enjoy Qin State sacrifices! You will be extremely glorious!" Ziyou said.
As soon as the words "Sacrifice of the State of Qin" came out, the Mengwu people were stunned. This meant that the names of those who died on the battlefield would be included in the national sacrifices of the State of Qin. The State of Qin held a large sacrifice every year. It is customary to use it to worship emperors, queens and ancestors. This is the first time that the names of warriors have been included in the ancestral hall.
"I know you may not believe my words." Ziyou crossed the Emperor's Sword in his hand and said, "I, Ziyou, hereby swear in the name of the Emperor's Sword and my king's master, if I cannot honor what I said, I will be punished. Abandoned by all the people, scolded by all the people, life will not be easy and death will be uneasy, and the soul will be shattered!"
Listening to Ziyou's poisonous oath, no one among the soldiers present had any doubts. They believed Ziyou's words. Many of them were the ones who were saved during the locust plague because of Ziyou's strategy.
"Great Qin Dynasty for ten thousand years!"
"The battle to attack South Korea will officially begin in five days. In this battle, and in the future battles, our Qin soldiers are not allowed to harass the people! They are not allowed to rape, humiliate, and plunder! Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!" Ziyou said with murderous intent. said.
"promise!!"
The impassioned encouragement raised the morale of the entire Qin army. They all looked in the direction of Nanyang and wished they could start a war now and capture South Korea immediately. From this moment on, they no longer only fought for themselves, but also for themselves. Fight for future generations! When a person has a belief beyond themselves, their power will be infinitely amplified.
Naturally, the movements of the Qin army could not be hidden from the people in Nanyang County. Some soldiers in the Korean military camp looked in the direction of the Qin military camp. They were inexplicably afraid. They did not know why they were afraid. When they looked over, they always felt that there was something wrong. It's like a beast is staring at you from behind.
In the Qin Kingdom's tent, Meng Wu, Li Xin, Feng Wuze and Yang Duanhe were still thinking about what Ziyou just said about breaking up with the country and letting their names be sacrificed together with the ancestors. How big is this? Such an honor, as glorious as Ziyou said.
"What I said is true. You should have seen what I said after this war is over." Ziyou said. He had indeed discussed this matter with Ying Zheng before to build a military soul temple in Xianyang. , put the names of the former kings and famous generals and ministers of the Qin State into it, and carve the names of the soldiers who died in each war into it. As long as the Qin State is still there, they will enjoy the sacrifices of the Qin State.
At the same time, a treasure land was selected outside Xianyang to rest the soldiers who had no homes, and named it the Cangbing Valley. After the generals of the Qin State passed away, they could also put their robes in it to make a tomb. However, this is still being selected and construction has not started yet so it is not convenient to say anything.
"You are now preparing for the attack after Nanyang. I don't know how to fight. Meng Wu, you are responsible for commanding the battle. It is up to you to fight on the battlefield. Feng Wuze leaves the others and go down." Zi You said, looking at the four of them.
"promise!"
Everyone except Feng Wuze left. Feng Wuze looked at Ziyou anxiously. He didn't know the reason why Ziyou stayed, and he didn't think that it might be because of the fly camp Gogou incident. Although he didn't follow Ziyou Although they are close to each other, Ziyou's reputation is excellent in the Qin court. He has a selfless attitude and will not refuse to use talented people because of their faction. He will use the most suitable people.
"Don't be nervous, I'm staying here because I have a special mission for you." Ziyou said.
"Commander, whatever you say, we will definitely complete it!" Feng Wuze saluted and said. When he heard that it was a special task, he immediately relaxed and became happy at the same time. Special tasks generally represent high enough merit, but also represent a special task. The risk is extremely high, but when choosing to be a soldier, no one has already put their lives behind them. The Qin State has no tradition of hereditary generals, and every general is killed from among the ranks.
"I want you and Bai Yifei to kill all the dignitaries wherever the Qin army goes, collect all their properties, and send people to transport them back to Xianyang." Ziyou said.
Feng Wuze stared at Ziyou with wide eyes. There have been many wars that destroyed countries since the Spring and Autumn Period, but no one has ever said that they killed the powerful and powerful people in a country. Especially, although South Korea is not big, it is not small either. If It would be very troublesome to govern after killing these people, but this is not something he should consider. This is something civil servants should consider.
"Promise! The general will definitely send all the money to Xianyang, and not a penny will be lost!" Feng Wuze said, this task is very simple, but at the same time difficult, money touches people's hearts, who can guarantee that no one will be selfish? , so escorting is the most difficult thing.
"I'll leave this matter to you." Ziyou said.
"No!" Feng Wuze said.
After Feng Wuze left, he was taken away by Li Xin and Yang Duanhe. After arriving in a large tent, he began to ask Feng Wuze why he was left behind. Feng Wuze did not conceal his mission and told Li Xin and Yang Duanhe looked at Feng Wuze with a little sympathy in their eyes.
"I know what you are thinking. After this incident, I should go back and take over the affairs of the Xianyang Imperial Guard." Feng Wuze said helplessly. This is the fate of their Feng family. While enjoying Wang's favor, they are destined to What did he give up? This time he and Yang Duanhe were the vanguard, and Li Xin was just a mid-level soldier. It was enough to show that this battle to destroy the country was mainly for him to get enough military merit.
"It shouldn't be the Imperial Guards. The Yulin Army still lacks a general. You should take over this. There is no need for the Imperial Guards. Only the Yulin Army, the king's personal guard, needs independent loyalty." Yang Duanhe shook his head and said.
Feng Wuze also suddenly realized that the Yulin Guards are not the Forbidden Army. The Forbidden Army Guards Xianyang will basically not be mobilized, but the Yulin Guards will not be mobilized. The Yulin Guards need to go to the battlefield. The current Yulin Guards have many recruits, and After that, a large number of recruits replaced the veterans. If the Habayashi Guards are to maintain their combat effectiveness, it is essential to go to the battlefield. Only recruits who have experienced war can become veterans.
The sympathy in Li Xin's eyes turned to envy, but he still wouldn't go if he was asked to replace Feng Wuze. As long as the king of Qin is still the Ying family, the Feng family will not be lonely, but the Li family is not. The Li family is a powerful family. A wealthy family, to put it bluntly, is powerful. They need to form alliances with other powerful families to maintain their family prestige. This kind of massacre of powerful people will make Feng Wuze ostracized by others, even if Feng Wuze is just following orders.
At the same time, the Korean court couldn't sit still when they saw that Nanyang didn't show any sign of starting a war. Han Wangan was even more troubled. He asked several times a day if there was any news from Nanyang? Nanyang is the key to preserving South Korea, but Nanyang's exceptional calmness makes him very uneasy.
"Zhang Qing, is there any news from Nanyang?" Han Wangan asked as he looked at the minister below and clicked on Kaifeng. Han Wangan already understood that only one person in the civil and military dynasty could use Kaifang.
"Replying to your Majesty, there is no news yet. The Bloody Marquis is still confronting the Qin army, and the Qin army's commander Ziyou is also over there." Zhang Zhang said.
"Where is Wei Zhuang? Where did Wei Zhuang go with his 50,000 troops?" Han Wangan asked.
"Now Wang Jian has surrounded the wild king, and the general is leading the army to support him." Zhang Kai said.
"Order Bai Yifei to find fighter planes and start a battle with the Qin army." Han Wangan finally gave the last order because of his uneasiness.
"No, Your Majesty. The confrontation between the Blood-clothed Marquis and the Qin Army is most likely due to the lack of fighter opportunities. If the Blood-clothed Marquis and the Qin Army are rashly allowed to fight, it will inevitably fall into a trap. The lessons of the Changping Battle are still before us!" Zhang Kaidi immediately retorted. .
One of the taboos in fighting is that the court forces the foreign generals to start a war blindly. No one above the court knows what is going on on the battlefield. If the army is blindly allowed to attack, it is very likely that the entire army will be annihilated.
Han Wangan also knew something about military affairs. He immediately understood that there was something wrong with his order and said
"Instruct the Blood-clothed Marquis to find a fighter plane as soon as possible to fight the Qin army. The victory must be determined in one battle."
Looking at Han Wangan's unquestionable tone, when Zhang Zhangdi wanted to say something more, Han Wangan flicked his sleeves and left the throne, without giving Zhang Zhang a chance to speak. Zhang Zhangdi could only smile bitterly, and couldn't help but feel desolate in his heart. I thought, this is Korea's death.
