Chapter 68: The Way to Settle In
Don't show the border of Zhao State, just say that Handan, Zhao State, this year's big harvest, the people have surplus grain, the surplus grain is concentrated in Handan and ordered people to take care of it, traders from all over the country try to buy it at a low price, how can Zhao Kuo have explained, no one is allowed to sell grain privately, and the caravan has to give up,
Zhao Kuo traveled to inspect the soldiers' drills, but saw the cavalry waving weapons and rushing forward to kill, the crotch was ridden by the horses that day from the hands of the Huns, the endurance was amazing, the cavalry was quickly replenished, the horses were covered with leather armor, and the soldiers were also replaced with new armor, which was lighter than before, and the damage to the arrows could be minimized.
After the cavalry camp was inspected, Zhao Kuo nodded again and again, "The soldiers are not more than fine, especially the cavalry, just like the invincible spear of the Zhao State." ”
Lei Meng, Mu Chen and the others nodded again and again, "Don't worry, the king will definitely create a terrifying cavalry." ”
The voice fell, one person climbed onto the high platform, and a team of cavalry rushed out again, compared to Fang Cai, it was Zhao Kuo's research and development crossbow in his hand, snapping. The bow and crossbow are played, there is a crossbar in the distance, bang, the arrow hits the crossbar and makes a sound, the day and the Huns benefited a lot from the war, the Huns are warlike, one is the war horse, the other is the bow and crossbow, can ride the horse and shoot the arrow to hit the opponent, the flexibility is greatly enhanced, simply build a stronger attack team, the cavalry is equipped with a crossbow in the hand, with the Hun method, shoot the opponent in the run.
"Okay." Zhao Kuo praised again and again, it is rare to achieve such a precise hit at such a speed.
The two stepped forward, "King, it's better to see the sharpshooter camp first." ”
It is the black bull and the second baby, who have experienced and trained, and the village hunter has now become the general of the Zhao State, leading the bow and shooting camp with amazing lethality.
Everyone looked, the sharpshooter battalion stepped out, carrying arrows, with a cold expression, after the baptism of war, far from being comparable to ordinary soldiers, keeping a distance from each other's camps, the black bull and the second baby retreated to the side, and waved the flag in their hands, quickly drew arrows, put on the arrows, bent the bow and shot out, the whole action was smooth, and the arrows crossed the graceful arc to hit the designated position, compared to the ordinary arrows The distance is more than ten steps away, it seems inconspicuous, if it is on the battlefield, you can at least have two more chances to shoot than the opponent's archers.
Zhao Kuo saw it in his eyes, and the method of garrisoning soldiers did not affect the combat strength at all, "The prosperity of the Zhao Kingdom depends on you, and this king simply takes your cousin xiàn as the camp to give a name!" ”
"Name!" Everyone was immediately interested.
Zhao Kuo stood on a high place, and the eyes of the camp below were cast at the same time, his eyes were full of admiration, the king of Zhao was also the hope of Zhao Guo, such a wise lord, he would definitely be able to sweep the world one day.
"The invincible cavalry, just the tiger in the lower mountain, the angry sea dragon, the cavalry camp is called the dragon battalion!"
"Camp Raptors! Camp Raptors! There was a cheer from the cavalry camp.
Zhao Kuo's arm was raised, and he named them one by one, the cavalry camp was named the Terminator, and as for the bow battalion, the Hunter, the infantry camp did not show weakness, and fought hard with shields and spears, and was named the Tiger Battalion.
After Zhao Kuo's inspection, a group of brothers gathered in the big tent, raised a glass and drank happily, the camp tent was full of sky, as if returning to Changping again, the drums were bursting, the blood was boiling, and the battle against Bai Qi was very dangerous, and he also practiced a great ability, and there was a fearless elite soldier.
Zhao Kuo returned to Handan, there were already people waiting outside the palace gate, seeing the group returning, they quickly stepped forward and bowed down, and the guards stepped forward, "The king, this person said that he was the deputy general of the border pass, and he had something important to report to the king." ”
The man knelt on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head, Zhao Kuo said, "Where did you come from?" ”
Zhao State and Qi, Wei, Han, Qin are connected, for a while can not tell where the border is, the human: "Back to the king, subordinate to Qi, Zhao Shouguan deputy general, some time ago, a large number of victims of Qi approached the border, want to enter Zhao State, the general can not be the master, just temporarily settled, specially ordered subordinates to rush to Handan to ask the king." ”
"Qi country disaster victims? How many? ”
"Close to 10,000 people."
"I don't want to have so much, can there be a disaster in the Qi country?"
A person behind him said: "Back to the king, the country of Qi first had a drought, and then a plague of insects, and the harvest would inevitably be affected. ”
Zhao Kuo nodded, "In comparison, this king is more willing to believe in the latter, which means that more people from the Qi Kingdom will pour into the Zhao Kingdom, and immediately invite Zhang Liang and Li Si to come to see the king." ”
Zhang Liang naturally doesn't need to say much, the people of Guigumen are familiar with the art of war strategy, Li Si is also good at planning, the king's order does not dare to delay and go straight to the palace, the two figures approached, the two looked at each other and smiled, Li Si bowed and saluted, "Lord Shangqing, I don't know why the king is in such a hurry to summon him?" ”
Zhang Liang shook his head, "The king should be going to inspect the camp soldiers and horses, could it be that something happened to it?" ”
Li Si said: "It shouldn't be, the Zhao army's combat strength is amazing, and it can defeat the Qin army, which the Chu army can't compare with at all." ”
Zhang Liang said: "I'll talk about it after seeing the king." ”
The two of them sped up and went straight to the main hall, Zhao Kuo's face was gloomy, the victims, tens of thousands of victims, with the King of Qi who he was familiar with, would definitely not reduce taxes for this, and there was no food available, just like the day when he was besieged by the Qin army in Changping, suffering from hunger, if it was not for a glimmer of hope, it would have collapsed.
Footsteps sounded, and the two entered, "King." ”
Zhao Kuo pointed with his hand, and the two of them sat firmly, "It's really helpless to invite the two of you to come so late, someone came to report that there are a large number of Qi victims at the border, and they want to enter Zhao State, what do you think about this matter?" ”
Zhang Liang also frowned when he heard this, a large number of victims, the most important thing is Qi people, Qi and Zhao are hostile, he will inevitably fight again in the future, and it will inevitably become an uncertain factor at that time, if he refuses to ask for Qi people, it is also understandable, if he does this, how many people will starve to death in the wilderness.
Li Si's eyes rolled, "King, Li Si thought that the victims should be allowed to enter and properly settled." ”
Zhao Kuo's expression remained unchanged, his eyes fell on Zhang Liang, Zhang Liang said: "Although this is a good deed, it is only that once he rises in the army, he may be hindered." ”
Zhao Kuo said: "This king is also worried, the disaster of the Qi country, the people have no food available, the most hateful thing is the king of Qi, who does not take the lives of the people of Qi seriously at all, if it is not helpless, try to ask who is far away from leaving the homeland and changing careers to Zhao country." ”
Zhang Liang said: "The king is merciful, even if the victims are allowed to enter, how to resettle them is still a headache. ”
Li Si smiled: "King, don't forget one person, a person who has meritorious service to the Qi country. ”
"Tian Dan."
Li Si said: "Yes, with the prestige of Tian Xiang in Qi State, Qi people are now in trouble, if the king does good deeds to allow Qi people to enter Zhao, he must be grateful for the grace of the king, plus the power of Tian Xiang, the disaster victims will not dare to make trouble, if the king is hegemonic, one is grain and grass, the other is soldiers and horses, grain and grass can be raised on the land, soldiers and horses are not, more than ten years can be done, experience and training, and now a lot of troops are invested in Zhao State, how can they be abandoned." ”
Zhao Kuo laughed, "Okay, that's right, is there a good plan for resettlement?" ”
Li Si has the ability, but also good at talking, Zhang Liang as Shangqing has been robbed of the limelight continuously, and his face can't help but be ugly, "King, the northern border trouble has been eliminated, that day I was worried about the invasion of the Huns, most of the people of Zhao were far away, resulting in barren fields, so I simply took Wu'an Town as the center to resettle the victims to the north, one can reclaim the wasteland for self-sufficiency, and the other can increase the strength of the northern defense, which is a way to kill two birds with one stone." ”
Zhao Kuo nodded, "It's a safe way, and immediately order Tian Dan to take full authority to deal with the victims." ”
Tian Dan received the order not to delay, with the people rushed to the border, that day is from here into Handan, along the way to think of the Qi disaster victims, can not help but sad, this day rushed to the border of Zhao State, the disaster victims temporarily gathered outside the fortress, every day someone boiled porridge and rice, so it is enough, hoping to be able to impress the King of Zhao.
The gate of the fortress opened, Tian Dan urged the horse out, and the victims got up one after another, and some people had sharp eyes, "It's Lord Xiangguo, Lord Xiangguo." ”
The victims of Qi fell down one after another, it can be seen that Tian Dan has a position in the hearts of Qi people, Tian Dan has tears in his eyes, "Tian Dan was framed that day, and he had no choice but to leave Qi State, King Zhao is a wise and benevolent lord, you should take Zhao Country as your home from now on." ”
Tian Dan ordered people to escort the victims to Wu'an, the king's order was delivered, the Wu'an defenders will be properly settled, Tian Dan stayed temporarily, and there will be disaster victims arriving one after another, and the people of Qi are grateful and say goodbye.
