Chapter 422 422

The State of Qi also carried out this kind of reform at the beginning, but the reform of the State of Qi and the seizure of the title of nobility did not have such a strong resistance, mainly because there were two military families in the State of Qi.

One of them was defeated in the battle for the prince, and the other was weakened little by little in Qi Xiaobai's foreign war.

The rest of the aristocracy is a clique of civil officials, what is the use of a group of literati? Is there any army, and what to use to resist Qi Xiaobai's reforms?

Therefore, Qi Xiaobai's reform was very smooth, but Qi Xiaobai did not deprive the titles of the civil official group.

This is mainly due to the fact that the education of the civilian group families is much better than that of the commoners, and although they do not expect any great talents from these families, their abilities are much better than those of the commoners, and they are still somewhat useful in some low-level civilian positions.

Secondly, there is not much difference between depriving the title and keeping the title, because the Yulu given to him by Qi Xiaobai has been greatly weakened, after all, the titles of Qi are all empty titles, unlike these nobles of Chu State, who are all city lords of various cities.

Each city of Qi has a city lord and a prince, and several cities are united and governed by a county guard.

And the center of the county guard is still stationed in the legion, and this legion is not under the jurisdiction of the county guard, and the county guard is also arranged by the central government of Qi State.

And when arranging, they also investigated these people, disrupted all the people they had befriended, prevented them from gathering together, and sent their political enemies to oppose them and check and balance each other.

In the case of mutual checks and balances, this person does not dare to make mistakes easily, otherwise he will be caught by his own enemies, and I am afraid that it will be over.

So in this way, they can better govern their territory, and if there is a war, they just have to watch, because the garrison will not obey their command, unless there is an order from the central government, they will listen to their dispatch, because in every garrison, there is a leader of the army who governs.

And this leader, although he controlled the army, was not allowed to enter the city, and only in time of war, was allowed to enter the city, mainly to prevent these people from mutiny.

As for other countries, they have basically changed their laws, the Shang monarchs of Qin changed their laws, the complete centralization of power and farming warfare, the Hufu cavalry and archery of Zhao State, and the army are all under the command of the monarch of Zhao State.

And Wei and Korea have also completed the centralization, only the Chu State wants to completely centralize power because it is too divided, and only by fighting such a civil war can it be.

The monarchs of the Chu State in the past dynasties did not dare to fight this war, even the powerful King of Chu Huai did not dare to fight, he just coerced these people to follow him, but completely deprived them of their territory, and the King of Chu Huai did not dare.

However, Wu Qi, who is a peerless warrior, has a strong confidence in his own ability, and when he came to the Chu State, he immediately launched reforms to carry out this thing that the monarchs of the Chu State did not dare to do.

In fact, Qu Yuan, the old minister of the Chu State, had long wanted to carry out such a reform, but his ability was limited, and he launched such a reform, who would come to fight those nobles?

Qu Yuan has the heart but is powerless.

But fortunately, there is a great talent in the Chu State, with such a heart, and at the same time, he also has such a strength to carry out this kind of reform.

Ten days later.

Wu Qi's army approached Qiucheng, and the armies of the two sides faced off outside Qiucheng.

The Central Army of Chu State opened two lines, and Wu Qi walked slowly forward!

"Wang Enhao, the state of Chu is reforming the law, I hope that the Viscount Akita of Qiucheng can give up the title and follow me to the central government and take office!" Wu Qi looked at Akita in the distance and said.

"Wu Qi, you traitor, slandered the mourning king, I will kill you outside the city today!" Akita glared at Wu Qi and said.

Wu Qi drew his weapon: "Viscount Akita, do you really want to fight me?" ”

I saw that the central Chu army showed its weapons, and roared neatly, which greatly boosted morale, making the opposing coalition army tremble.

Wu Qi once said that today's Central Army of Chu State, facing the Wei State of Wei, is definitely crushing posture.

"Don't talk nonsense, take your life!" Akita Castle shouted, and the armies of both sides rushed towards each other and began to fight.

Twenty days later.

Qi state-run Qiu Qi domestic cabinet.

Qi Xiaobai looked at the letter written by Tian Ji in his hand: "In the first battle of Qiucheng, Akita was beheaded, his head was hung in Qiucheng, and the coalition army was beheaded by 200,000 people, and the rest all surrendered to Wu Qi!" ”

"And in the battle of Qiucheng, do you know how many people the central army of the Chu State has lost?" Qi Xiaobai looked at these ministers in the cabinet.

"Kill 200,000, you can think that this battle is very fierce, and the central army of Chu State will have to lose at least more than 50,000 people!" At this time, Tian Dan said to Qi Xiaobai.

"No, only a thousand people were lost!" Qi Xiaobai said to everyone.

Everyone was stunned, Tian Dan looked at Qi Xiaobai and said, "This, this, how is it possible?" How can you lose a thousand people when you kill 200,000 enemy troops? ”

"Tian Ji's report is like this, Wu Qi induced the other party in a swamp, let the coalition army fall into the swamp, and used the method of fire attack to defeat the coalition army, and when the coalition army broke away, there were countless casualties,!" Qi Xiaobai said to everyone.

"This intelligence shows that this Wu Qi is very good at using the terrain, Akita has been in Autumn City for so long, and his understanding of the terrain is not as good as Wu Qi!" Qi Xiaobai looked at everyone and said.

"Wu Qi is in the Chu State, which is a very big disadvantage for our Qi State!" Qi Xiaobai looked at everyone and said.

Everyone nodded, and Guan Zhong looked at Qi Xiaobai: "Yes, Wu Qi's great talent, in any country, can make this country extremely strong, this person must be eliminated, otherwise it will always be a threat to my Qi country!" ”

"Do you have a way to get rid of this Wu Qi?" Qi Xiaobai looked at everyone and asked.

Everyone was silent, and at this time, Zhang Tian looked at Qi Xiaobai: "On the positive side, we can't confront this Wu Qi at all, but we can attack him behind his back, if King Chu Mourning suspects Wu Qi!" ”

"You mean to use the counter-plot?" Guan Zhong looked at Zhang Tianshang and asked.

"I can only give it a try, leave this matter to Tian Ji, let Tian Ji operate! , Zhang Tianshang looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

Qi Xiaobai nodded: "I will let someone give instructions to Tian Ji, I'm afraid that this Wu Qi will not be suspected by this King of Chu Mourning, after all, I heard that this King of Chu Mourning trusts Wu Qi very much!" ”

"Your Majesty, Wu Qi is holding a large army, he is still outside, and his prestige in the army is unusually high, can King Chu Mourning really be completely relieved? When the king of Chu mourning was relieved, it was Wu Qi who had nothing, and came to the state of Chu, and now Wu Qi has everything, he wants soldiers and soldiers, and he wants prestige and prestige, and it is impossible for King Chu to be at ease! Zhang Tianshang looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.
