"Uncle Shi, there are too few people here in Yan Kingdom."

From Jicheng out, across the Luan River, is straight into the south of the Yan country three water flow Nuo area, three water to Yi Shui, Xu Shui, Laishui as the source, especially Yi Shui momentum, bathed in the winter of Yan country, the river is not frozen.

Walking for two days, all the way in, the city began to sparse again, the farther away from Jicheng, the rarer, as if in the entire Yan Kingdom, only Jicheng is the largest core place.

Riding forward, the cool breeze blowing head-on, staying in Yan Country for so long, for Xiao Ling and the others, it is nothing, as far as the eye can see, the hillside fields in the distance are still ice crystals, and the sky and earth are white and endless.

"Yan country is bitter cold, although there is a lot of property, but it is difficult to make use of it, for decades, according to the information known by Qin State secret agents, the entire Yan country, the population is only about two million."

"It is distributed throughout the Yan Kingdom, and it is naturally extremely rare."

Yan inherited the five-capital system, although since the period of King Yan Zhao, the weight of Yandi and Liaoyang has weakened slightly, and gradually the capital Jicheng, the central capital Linyi, and the lower capital Wuyang are the top, but the population of about two million is sparse in the distribution of the national capital, the city, the market town, and the township.

With a population of two million, if it is a battle to conquer the country, it will be able to come up with an army of 500,000, but the strength of this 500,000 army is unknown, and the standing army of Yan at this time is only about 300,000.

50,000 are stationed in Wuyang, 200,000 are stationed in Jicheng, and 50,000 are stationed in recuperation, in order to suppress the existence of Donghu, it can be regarded as a veritable country of ten thousand times, at least compared to today's South Korea, it is much better.

"Two million people!"

"Uncle Shi, a few years ago, the Qin State built the Zhengguo Canal, and it was rumored that nearly two million people were requisitioned, is that true?"

The population of two million is naturally not low, but it rolls in my mind, and I remember that when the Zhengguo Canal was built a few years ago, the land in the Guanzhong of the Qin State was in a national war, and nearly two million were levied and sent to the river canal.

This incident shook the Six Kingdoms of Shandong, and for some vassal states, it was a real national war, while at the same time, the Qin State still had 200,000 troops outside the Chen Soldier Pass, and was always vigilant against the movements of the Six Kingdoms of Shandong.

"Naturally, more than a hundred years ago, the Qin State had a population of only nearly two million, but in the past hundred years, the conquests have continued, the territory is vast, the rule of law has been pursued, and the people of the six countries of Shandong have poured in, blessed the Shang Jun's cultivation and warfare strategies, and there have been many new generations."

"Today's Qin State, there should be more than five million people in the whole country, although it is not nearly eight million people compared to Chu State, but compared with the rest of the six countries of Shandong, it is far surpassed."

"The construction of the Zhengguo Canal, except for the land of Bashu, the land of Hanzhong, and the land of Longxi, almost all the people in and outside the Guanguan have gone to the canal, and I am afraid that the momentum will be difficult to see in the future."

Due to natural disasters, the people had no food to use, so they had to enter the canal, and according to the rule of law of the Qin State, most of them did not need to serve.

According to Zheng Guo's previous plan, if he wants to cast Zheng Guoqu at a normal speed, it is estimated that it may not be completed now! As the words of the mouth say, I am afraid that such things will not appear in the future.

"Two million people go up the canal, tsk, think about it, it's like people everywhere!"

Two million people, that is equivalent to the entire population of Yan Country today, mobilize all of them on the edge of a canal, and look at it, it is estimated that they are all black and oppressive human heads, stretching endlessly, and it is impossible to see the end at a glance.

"It takes a lot of people to build a canal, but the same is true for national wars, and maybe you'll often see millions of people gathering in a corner in the future!"

In the past, the Battle of Changping was also a national war, and millions of people were recruited into Changping, just so that the war could be carried out peacefully.

If the general trend starts in one day, there will be a few hard bones to gnaw on.

Counting on his fingers, it has been more than two years since he left Xianyang, and according to the strategy set by the central people at the beginning, starting from this year, perhaps, the beacon fire will begin to ignite.

took the lead, without saying much, after two days of marching, Yishui Wuyang was close at hand.

******

"Senior, it seems that someone is following us."

Ethereal and crisp words, along the way, Xiaoyi's words gradually increased, it seems that because they are familiar with each other, it seems that because Jingyi's personality has slowly changed, no matter what, for Zhou Qing, it is a good start.

As soon as I entered at noon, the three horses under my riding body had already gone down along the water, and from a distance, there were already many farmers working on the flat and vast fields, and on the relatively flat road, caravans were also faintly visible.

"It's a disciple of the peasant family, and the people of the Mo family don't have such courage."

What Xiaoyi can find, Zhou Qing has naturally been aware of it, and nodded at Xiaoyi, the power of the peasant family is all over the countries of Zhuxia, and in the land close to Yishui Wuyang, there are naturally a large number of disciples of the peasant family.

As for the Mo family, after Sui Yan Chunjun released the pursuit document, it was too late for them to dodge, so they dared to appear with great fanfare, since they followed the three of them, thinking that the identities of the three of them were leaked.

"Uncle Shi, whether it was in Chu State the year before last or in Linzi last year, the farmers did not show their edge, but looking at it now, what the farmers did is gradually becoming more frequent, helping Yan Guo rescue Yan Dan and monitoring us along the way."

"What they're up to!"

The information of the farmer, Xiao Ling has been in contact with a lot, when he was in the Yingdu of Chu State, the farmer appeared, but it soon disappeared, and when he was in Linzi, the hundred families besieged the uncle, and the farmer did not appear.

Even when Uncle Shi invited the Zhu family, the master of the farmer's Shennongtang, to join the Qin State, the Zhu family did not agree, thinking that the farmer family would not help each other, but it seemed that everything was not simple.

"Oh, Xiao Ling, you can see this, it means that this trip with me has been quite rewarding."

"All the sons of the hundred schools, each in its own way, since it is into the red dust of Zhuxia, then, no one wants to stay out of the matter, as for what the farmer is planning, you will know in the future, perhaps, it is also an opportunity to solve the hundred schools."

What the farmer is planning, Zhou Qing naturally knows that when he went to Xinzheng, South Korea for the first time a few years ago, the farmer had already entered the game, but he didn't pay much attention to it, and he didn't participate in the general trend of Zhuxia.

If it is a retrograde trend, the farmer should also be replaced, as for the farmer to help Yan Guo rescue Prince Dan, it is nothing, compared to the time that Yan Guo delayed, Yu Qin's long-distance friendship strategy is also helpful.

Hearing this, Xiao Ling didn't ask much, for himself, although those things were curious, but compared to heaven and earth sitting and forgetting, it was more important to understand the principles of nature, and bowed his head slightly.

"This is Yishui Wuyang, which is almost the same as Jicheng, but it is a bit nondescript to build."

Yishui Wuyang, is the capital built in the years of King Yan Zhao, Yishui looks north and south, divides the entire city into two, and builds a city wall on the rock bank of the East River, making the whole city look more weird.

Two hundred miles away on the west side is the Zhao State, and seven hundred miles away on the south side is the Qi State, so that the eastern area of Wuyang City gathers a population of more than nine layers, and no one wants to fall directly in the West City when the war starts.

However, for the garrison, it is no hindrance, it occupies the Xicheng area of Nuoda, goes down the water, enters through the gate of the East City, and under the shroud of spiritual awareness, the city of Wuyang is no worse than Jicheng, if it is not for the etiquette of Zhaogong Wangdao, it is estimated that it is not a problem to build bigger.

Looking down, it is indeed similar to the structure in Jicheng, but the difference is that the area where the palace is located, Jicheng is in the southwest, and Wuyang is in the northeast, which seems to be an excellent strategic retreat position.

The nobles of the office, the doctors and the scholars surround and live, the merchants are more free and unrestrained here, there is no jurisdiction of the Yan King of Jicheng, a merchant shop is directly born in the city of Wuyang, and the merchants of all countries gather here, and a lot of wealth gathers here.

Ten years ago, the city of Yishui Wuyang was assigned to the Prince Dan of Yan State for rectification!

Holding the reins of the horse, entering the city, where the dialects of the Seven Kingdoms are mixed, entering the wine shop, temporarily repairing, and after an hour, he comes out again, and sees the golden platform on the side of the palace of the East City.

After nearly a hundred years of wind and rain, the style of King Yan Zhao's daughter buying bones was not obvious, only the old wooden platform and the low shelf after the breeze were left, God gave you the opportunity, but you didn't grasp it, helpless!

"Qin Ting Dao Wu Zhenjun came to the city of Yishui Wuyang, and after a few hours, he left?"

Although Yan Dan is not in Yishui Wuyang, but the city is under the renovation of Taifu Juwu, it is not bad, in the mansion of the important ministers in the Dongcheng area, the original prince's mansion, now few people come.

In the courtyard full of greenery inside, a warrior who was dressed in a strong suit and was extremely fast entered, looking at the adult who was reading the bamboo slips in the courtyard at the moment, whispering in front of him, and after a few breaths, the figure of looking at the bamboo slips was sluggish, and responded slowly.

"According to the news from Jicheng, three days ago, Daowu Zhenjun left, and now he has come to Jicheng, which is normal, but they didn't stay in Wuyang, it's a little weird."

According to last year's surveillance of Daowu Zhenjun, the three of them were visiting Zhuxia Fenghua, but every time they went to a place, they stayed for at least two days, or even more, and now, they stayed in Yishui Wuyang for only two hours, bought some things, and then went out of the city.

"According to what Daowu Zhenjun did, they should go to Zhao Kingdom, and tell the peasant disciples there to just watch from a distance, don't get too close, and at the same time pass on my order to Doctor Ju Wu in Xianyang to act as soon as possible, and if it is too late, there will be changes."

The person holding the bamboo slip frowned, Qin Tingdao Wu Zhenjun has always acted casually, but as long as he doesn't take the initiative to provoke him, he is basically worry-free, and he whispered an order, and then the words changed, as if he remembered something, and ordered again.

"Yes!"

The warrior who delivered the message bowed.

"In addition, another secret order has been transmitted, there has been a lot of change in the camp outside the Qin State Pass recently, and General Huan Qi has sent 100,000 troops to Shangdang, informing Handan's secret son, and revealing the news to Prince Jia."

After a few breaths, looking at the messenger who wanted to leave, he immediately gave the order again, after Zheng Guoqu, the Qin State was silent for three years, and I don't know what the desire to go to the army in Shangdangtun at this moment is?
