As for Xiang Shaolong's idea of giving the crown prince of Zhao to Lian Po, it was even more surprising.
This young dragon can use only one fist to make Zhao Guo miserable without using any soldiers. He is regarded as an unparalleled warrior in the country.
Imagine the expression on Old General Lian Po's face when he saw Prince Zhao. King Qin couldn't bear it.
Not long after Xiang Shaolong returned to Xianyang, people from the Mohists' Guild led by Yan Ping also arrived in Xianyang one after another.
Mohists are different from those scholars who only shake their heads, quote scriptures, and talk nonsense. Most of them come from the lower class people and craftsmen. There are many skilled craftsmen and they are real workers.
Xiang Shaolong arranged many of them to pastures and factories, allowing them to play their maximum role. Those who could read and write worked hard to organize Mohist doctrines and works, and he was also good at typesetting and printing.
Ji Yanran also returned to Xianyang.
Ji Cainu dared to love and hate, and lived in the general's mansion generously. The men in Xianyang were crazy with jealousy. As if Goddess Qin was not enough, Ji Cainnu came again, and they all silently cursed Xiang Shaolong in their hearts.
The master swordsmith Ou Yezi was from the Yue Kingdom, and Ji Yanran was a survivor of the Yue Kingdom. She brought back many experienced craftsmen, and Xiang Shaolong put them in the Wu family's forging factory to let them study new forging techniques. The weapons now produced by the Wu family are of excellent quality and novel in style, and are deeply loved by the military. The Qin army's combat effectiveness has also been greatly improved.
Xiang Shaolong started his daily routine of clocking in to work again, which was a bit boring, and he wanted to resign. He felt that being a civil servant was really meaningless. How could he be as cool as being a rich second generation? Nowadays, Qin Qing is a super rich woman, Wu Tingfang is super white, rich and beautiful, and Ji Yanran is no less willing to give in. She has such a promising future as a "little pretty boy" Your career is so good, why bother to imitate Li Si and immerse yourself in these trivial things all day long, unable to extricate yourself, and have to make smiles everywhere and be made things difficult for others.
Li Si told Xiang Shaolong that Zheng Guoqu's recent progress was not ideal. After South Korea was destroyed, the chief designer Zheng Guo was a little absent-minded and wanted to give up the project.
Xiang Shaolong was upset for a while, he asked me to handle these troubles by himself, and besides, wasn't there Lu Buwei? He recommended Zheng Guo, why not let him handle it?
It's a pity that Lu Buwei didn't care at all. He originally recommended Zheng Guo because he wanted to control the financial power. However, Xiang Shaolong ruined it and directly brought Zheng Guo to the King of Qin for help. Without Lu Buwei, nothing happened, so Lu Buwei never interfered with any of Zheng Guoqu's affairs.
Xiang Shaolong thought for a while, found Han Fei, and said to Han Fei: "Zheng Guoqu's plan is your plan to weaken the Qin Dynasty, and is intended to hinder the Qin Dynasty from advancing eastward. The reason why I did not expose him is because although this project is very costly, , but it is indeed beneficial to the country and the people. Now that Korea has been destroyed, it is bound to be unable to make a comeback. Even the King of Han has become a prisoner. You persuade him to build canals for the Qin Dynasty. It angered us. Not only him, but also the King of Han did not heal. End."
Han Feicheng was frightened. The Qin people were violent and barbaric. They, the hostages, were all afraid of offending the Qin people and causing death. They pray every day, hoping that the Han Dynasty will be stable and not give the Qin people an excuse to kill them. Isn't Zheng Guo's behavior now handing a knife to the Qin people?
Xiang Shaolong didn't care about the rest. He believed that Han Fei and Han Wang could handle it well. He just told Li Si to train more of our own professional talents.
The business of Zuixianlou continued to be booming, and "Xianren Zui" was so famous in Xianyang that it even became a tribute. Xiang Shaolong had to set up a special winery to increase production. He originally wanted to implement a membership system in Zuixian Tower, but then he thought about it. In this era of rampant privileges, it doesn't make any difference whether these dignitaries in Xianyang give it to them or not. Ordinary people can't afford it anyway.
Lord Changping and Lord Changwen were going to have a banquet with Xiang Shaolong. In line with the principle of "don't let outsiders have money", they had to go to their own homes, so they booked a private room in Zuixian Tower.
The last time I drank, my sister got in trouble. After I got home, I criticized my sister. It's a pity that his sister is more arrogant than him and refuses to admit his mistake. Mr. Changping can only emphasize Xiang Shaolong's identity. She doesn't need to admit her mistake, as long as she doesn't provoke Xiang Shaolong in the future.
Before coming out this time, Chang Pingjun repeatedly asked his sister not to show her face. Tell her that this wine shop was entrusted by military bosses, including Mr. Lu. There are two rising stars in the military at the banquet, so don't make any mistakes again.
My sister felt depressed for a while, as if she was a "troublemaker", but at least she nodded and agreed.
Xiang Shaolong saw two young generals Huanjue and Yang Duanhe at the wine table.
This Huanjue became Fan Yuqi later. After his defeat, he fled to the state of Yan. But at this time, Huanjue was in high spirits. He was from Wang Jian's border guard force and could be regarded as a direct descendant of Xiang Shaolong. Xiang Shaolong didn't know if his fate could be changed because of his appearance.
Xiang Shaolong is like the spokesperson of the Qin Army and the idol of all soldiers. Huanjue and Yang Duanhe were very excited when they saw Xiang Shaolong. What they most admired about Xiang Shaolong was his record against the Huns, which was a real head-to-head confrontation. Compared with Xiang Shaolong playing tricks and plots everywhere, it makes people's blood boil the most.
In the current Qin Army, the old general Wang Hao has just passed away, and the remaining Hao Gong is old. Xu Xian and Du Bi belong to the Mesozoic era, but the most popular ones are the young Xiang Shaolong and Wang Jian. Think about the heroic spirit of a majestic cavalry, crossing the desert and making the Xiongnu frightened.
As soon as Xiang Shaolong appeared, Huan Jue and Yang Duanhe instantly turned into fans, as if they were seeing a superstar. Their admiration was like the endless stream of rivers, or like the Yellow River flooding out of control.
Xiang Shaolong felt disgusted, but these two upright young generals took it for granted and did not feel embarrassed at all. The most asked questions were about the Xiongnu.
Lord Changping raised his glass and said, "Shaolong, don't take it to heart because my eldest sister was rude last time. I dealt with her severely when I got back. I don't know the severity."
Xiang Shaolong waved his hand and said: "No need to mention it again, as if I am too narrow-minded."
Lord Changping said: "Okay, let's not mention her anymore. Shaolong, these two boys are the rising stars of our Qin army. You should mention them more in the future."
Xiang Shaolong said: "Not to mention raising points, our Great Qin's power to sweep across Liuhe is already unstoppable. You still have a lot of opportunities. There is no need to rush for a while. The most important thing is to hone yourself more and accumulate experience."
Huan Jue and Yang Duanhe quickly nodded in agreement, and then continued to look at Xiang Shaolong.
Xiang Shaolong thought to himself: "I'm not giving you a report. Let's just chat. Answer the conversation."
He had no choice but to continue asking: "Nowadays, there are constant disputes in the world, and famous generals are emerging in various countries. Who do you admire the most?"
Huan Jue blurted out: "Of course it's you, General Xiang."
Lord Changping and Lord Changwen smiled. Xiang Shaolong was so embarrassed that he couldn't help but scolded: "Speak well, why am I here to listen to you guys praising me? I also want to see your understanding of military affairs."
Huan Jue smiled horrifiedly and said: "Wu'an Lord Bai Qi has never been victorious in his life. In thirty-seven years, he showed his power on the battlefield and captured more than seventy cities. He anticipated the enemy's changes and appeared one after another without losing a single one. In a long battle, he retreated to lure the enemy and divide them. The strategy of encirclement and annihilation was even more successful in one battle. It turned the Zhao people from strong to weak. Who can compete with them in one day?"
Xiang Shaolong nodded and said: "Yes, Lord Wu An is a famous general among famous generals. He benefited from meeting the Ming Lord. At that time, the late king made an exception and favored Bai Qi from the beginning. He was raised from Zuo Shu and was promoted to Daliang Zao two years later. .And Lord Wu An did not disappoint the late king. In the second year after leading the army, in the Battle of Yique, he used his world-famous cavalry charge to defeat the 240,000-strong coalition of Han and Wei with less than one-third of its troops. , captured their commander Gongsun Xi, and all five towns in the west of Wei State fell. In the following year, they successively captured the old capital of the Wei people, Anyi, and 61 nearby cities. So far, the most powerful Wei State was only able to survive. That's it. The battle of Changping was also defeated by King Zhao's ignorance, and he fell into a counter-intentional plan, otherwise the victory or defeat would be unknown. He used the deceitful tactics of military strategists to the extreme, predicting the enemy's changes, and making endless surprises. It was just that the killing was too heavy. , harmful to Tianhe."
Yang Duanhe said: "Le Yi, the king of Chang State, paid homage to General Yan and commanded the allied forces of the five countries. The weak defeated the strong and conquered more than 70 cities of Qi State. The Yan State turned from weak to strong, and his departure also caused the Yan State to After defeat, the state of Yan turned from strong to weak. The country of Yan prospered because of him, but also declined because of him."
Xiang Shaolong also nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, Le Yi supports the weak Yan and has talents in the world. But he lacks the ruthlessness of Lord Wu An. With a hundred times the number, he cannot conquer the two cities for several years. Because he wanted to conquer the people with benevolence and righteousness, he gave Tian Dan an opportunity to take advantage of, and because of King Hui's suspicion, Jimo was defeated."
Xiang Shaolong turned to look at Lord Changping and Lord Changwen again, and asked, "Where are you?"
They were princes from the royal family. Although they commanded the imperial army, unlike Huan Jue and Yang Duanhe, they were not serious soldiers.
But since Xiang Shaolong asked, Lord Changping replied: "Li Mu can be regarded as a famous general in the world. Not long ago, he defeated a hundred thousand Xiongnu, wiped out the Xiongnu, defeated the Donghu, surrendered Linhu, and fled. With his record against the Xiongnu, Only Shaolong and Wang Jian can compare with them."
Xiang Shaolong said: "Li Mu's use of troops is unpredictable. The troops are unpredictable, and the water is unpredictable. If you make the best use of the situation and endure for several years, the battle will be decided. The northern part of the Zhao Kingdom can enjoy stability for more than ten years. With Li Mu, one day , even our great Qin would find it difficult to destroy Zhao."
Xiang Shaolong looked at Chang Wenjun again. Chang Wenjun was even less interested in these things, but seeing that everyone else had said it, he had no choice but to say one thing, "Can Lian Po be considered a famous general in the world?"
Xiang Shaolong said: "Of course, Lian Po must conquer the enemy in his lifetime and win in every battle. In the battle of Changping, Lian Po used his troops carefully and held the fort for three years. We, the Qin Dynasty, could not advance even an inch. If King Zhao hadn't changed his generals before the battle, Qin and Zhao would have lost the battle." I'm afraid it won't be like today. Yu Lin Xiangru stood on a thorn in front of the door to plead guilty, and the two cornerstones of the Zhao Kingdom reconciled to protect the peace of the Zhao Kingdom. Unfortunately, his character was too upright, and he actually wanted to confront the prince who stayed in our Daqin. As a result, Prince Yan has succeeded to the throne, and now I have sent the crown prince to Lian Po, fearing that he will not live well for a few more days."
