Daqin: When I return from sea, I will offer you a map of the world

Chapter 459 Zhao Di was pacified, Xiao He showed his sword!

At the last moment, Chen Yu glimpsed the terrifying energy hidden in Guizhou.

The funny thing is that he only discovered all this after his fall into evil.

Before that, he had taken the upper-level route. After all, although Chen Yu had no official position, he was still a nobleman in both Wei and Zhao.

After being abandoned as an outcast, he chose to give up on himself, but was surprised to find that the so-called nobles and thousand-year bloodline did not seem to be so sacred.

Unfortunately...by the time he discovered this, it was already too late.

And his reputation was already ruined. In short... he knew that he had no future.

However, when he looked back at Qin's political changes in recent years, Chen Yu was surprised to find out.

The so-called order to move the royal mausoleum... may be a bad policy for the nobles of the aristocratic families, but it does not seem to be the case for the head of Guizhou.

Oh...it turns out that Qin State did not offend anyone from beginning to end.

It's just that they overestimated themselves too much.

"too late!"

Chen Yu raised his head!

What if it was a few years ago, before the immortal food came to Great Qin, and when that young man did not return from the sea.

That time may be the real opportunity.

However, when everyone had the opportunity, they were intimidated by King Qin's lewd force and did not dare to try to resist.

When the order to move the royal tombs was issued, I took it for granted that the opportunity had come. However, in fact, it was when King Qin issued the order to move the royal tombs that the opportunity truly disappeared.

From that moment on, nothing was enough to subvert King Qin's rule. For King Qin, and even the entire Qin State, it was just labor pains.

And they chose the wrong time, and the outcome was doomed to failure.

"Ha ha……"

Chen Yu smiled, but there were always people buried with him.

……

The army arrived as expected...

Li Zuoche was finally persuaded to invite him.

The main root problem is that Chen Yu harmed the Zhao people in Zhao, and Li Zuoche also had his own circle after all.

It is said that it is seclusion, but in fact it cannot be avoided at all.

And now that the State of Zhao has become a vassal state, although it still belongs to the State of Qin in name, and Zhao Si is still the grandson of the First Emperor, in the end Zhao Si has half of the Zhao family blood.

The awkwardness in my heart was finally able to be bypassed.

However, before taking up his official position, Zhang Cang had a cautious mind after all.

He didn't mind using Li Zuoche, after all, Zhao people had to be used to govern Zhao land.

Moreover, after a simple conversation and examination, Zhang Cang also recognized Li Zuoche's talent.

In Zhang Cang's view, there is nothing wrong with pushing Li Zuoche out as a benchmark. After all, after giving Tian Zao, the next step is a big stick.

However, the top military leader must be reserved for Han Xin.

Secondly, it is impossible for Zhang Cang to let Li Zuoche take command of this rebellion.

Because counterinsurgency is not the top priority from beginning to end. The real priority is liquidation and suppression.

Although the State of Zhao has become a vassal state, it does not mean that it can enclose the land for itself, the laws of Qin can be ignored, the laws of Qin can be violated, and the order to move the royal tombs can be abandoned in Zhao.

These things must be carried out resolutely.

The land of Zhao is Zhao Si's most critical military support, so the State of Zhao can only be the State of Zhao Si, but not the State of Zhao co-governing with nobles from aristocratic families.

Li Zuoche was from Zhao, so it was easy for him to command the army and eliminate Chen Yu. However, it would be too easy to expect a Zhao person to enforce the order of moving the royal tomb, and to force liquidation and check the property of the land in accordance with Qin laws.

Zhang Cang's contact with Li Zuoche was too short, and he could not guarantee Li Zuoche's character, nor did he intend to take risks on such matters, so he chose the more reliable Cao Shen as the commander-in-chief, Fan Kuai as the vanguard, and Zhou Bo as the deputy general.

Zhou Bo, Cao Shen, and Fan Kuai may not be as good as Li Zuoche in terms of military ability and background, but that is compared with Li Zuoche. Looking at the world, the three of them can at least be firmly in the first class. If they have a big advantage, counterinsurgency is impossible. any problem.

Therefore, although Li Zuoche won the position of general, he actually only participated in the pre-war planning and deduction and the formulation of combat procedures, and did not directly participate in leading the troops in combat.

Li Zuoche also showed his talents accordingly. According to the objective conditions of Zhao State, he made certain fine-tuning of the battle plan, and at the same time argued so hard that Cao Shen, Fan Kuai and Zhou Bo were convinced of his plan.

"The grandson of Lord Wu'an truly deserves his reputation!"

Before the war!

After all the mobilization was done, Zhou Bo sighed as he recalled the military plan formulated by Li Zuoche.

"There is always some heritage in a country." Cao Shen smiled.

"In my opinion, Li Zuoche's talent is probably not inferior to that of Han Xin." Fan Kuai scratched his head and expressed his opinion.

As a brave general, Fan Kuai had a better impression of Li Zuoche.

Although Han Xin and Fan Kuai knew each other earlier.

But compared to Li Zuoche, Han Xin is more arrogant and not very good at interpersonal relationships.

Compared with Han Xin, Li Zuoche is obviously a better person. When Fan Kuai expresses his opinions, he will respect Fan Kuai more and patiently explain things clearly to Fan Kuai in a way that Fan Kuai can understand, instead of looking at a fool like Han Xin. Looking at Fan Kuai with the same eyes.

Of course, this also has a lot to do with Fan Kuai's identity change.

Han Xin and Fan Kuai were both from the Yuan Dynasty, and there was no distinction between them.

After arriving in Zhao, Fan Kuai was a fierce dragon across the river. As a subordinate of King Zhao and a bodyguard of King Zhao, he was also a member of the Peixian faction. All fools knew that Fan Kuai had a bright future.

The change in identity is probably one of the reasons why Li Zuoche was able to endure.

"You think so just because Li Zuoche talks better than Han Xin, right?" Xia Houying laughed and teased Fan Kuai.

"I'm not stupid!" Fan Kuai glared at Xia Houying.

"Drive your car!"

Xia Houying laughed when he heard this.

In this battle, Xia Houying was appointed to command the chariot troops because of his excellent driving skills.

Hmm...although there aren't many tanks.

But who made Xia Houying drive well?

In short, to deal with Chen Yu this time, a total of 50,000 soldiers and horses borrowed from Wang Ben were dispatched, plus 40,000 county soldiers, totaling 90,000 horses, and even more civilian laborers were temporarily recruited.

Xiao He urged him very urgently...

After all, the current financial hole is huge, the army is deployed, and the consumption every day is astronomical. Counterinsurgency is a small matter. Xiao He is mainly waiting for Zhou Bo and others to lead the army to provide him with money after the rebellion is put down.

It’s really impossible to get any money out of Qian Shou...

The locals have done a great job...

It's hard to make money for the country, this is their old business.

"It's hard to say whether Li Zuoche can defeat Han Xin, but I know Xiao He is in a hurry. If we don't put down the rebellion as soon as possible, I'm afraid Xiao He will have to go to the front line to urge us in person." Cao Shen smiled.

"We can't embarrass Lao Xiao... put down the rebellion as soon as possible. After the rebellion is put down, we can free up our hands to replenish the treasury." Zhou Bo chuckled.

Just after taking office, everyone is still of the same mind.

After all, everyone knows that Zhao Si is now King Zhao, but his future is not just King Zhao.

Therefore, the small group is still very strong and solid, and they are all working towards a common goal. Let the land of Zhao be stable and the country of Zhao prosperous!

After completing pre-war mobilization, Cao Shen and others launched military operations in strict accordance with the combat plan formulated by Li Zuoche.

First, they mobilized the counties and counties in Jinyang to defend the city, then cut off Chen Yu's road and drove Chen Yu to flee towards Yingchuan.

While in Jinyang, the 90,000 Zhao army and Chen Yu's rebels had their first encounter.

Fan Kuai led the troops in the vanguard and defeated Chen Yu's partial army in the first battle, beheading more than 2,000 people, but captured nearly 20,000 horses.

Well...they are all old, weak, women and children.

Chen Yu abandoned the old, weak, women and children and ran away. He coerced the people and naturally had backlash. For example, the transfer speed was not fast enough.

After several more encounters, Chen Yu was driven to the vicinity of Yingchuan County.

After several collisions, Chen Yu's troops only had more than 20,000 troops left.

This is how it is when you coerce the people. They gather quickly, but when you encounter elite soldiers and generals, they disperse just as quickly.

Within ten days, Chen Yu was knocked back to his original form, and the situation was even worse.

His men are still on the run...

Moreover, his subordinates have become disorganized, and recently it happened that thousands of his generals surrendered directly.

However, at this point, Cao Shen still did not eliminate Chen Yu in one go. Instead, he began to mobilize all propaganda channels to issue an ultimatum to Chen Yu.

King Zhao's righteousness, coupled with the fact that the old, weak, women and children had been abandoned by Chen Yu, and his reputation was completely ruined, the people under Chen Yu were even more confused, and his military orders were even refused to be accepted.

Even if Chen Yu gave all his wealth and rewards, it would not be enough to stabilize people's hearts.

This is the inevitable outcome when he chooses to wreak havoc wherever he goes.

Chen Yu realized the truth again.

Those who abuse people with force may be able to stir up momentum at first, but once they encounter setbacks, the separation of people's hearts is unstoppable.

Although Xiao He was very anxious, he did not rush Cao Shen on this matter.

Because...even the rebels are still the subjects of King Zhao.

Many of them were coerced and confused with the truth.

Compared with the rebels who were forced to fight with weapons, what deserved more were the people who controlled and dominated all of this.

So under a lot of pressure, if nothing unexpected happens...

Chen Yu's troops began to flee in large numbers, and his military orders were ignored by more and more people.

The remaining 20,000 horses fled within a few days and only more than 4,000 were left.

These more than 4,000 troops are considered Chen Yu's core elite.

But what's even more terrible is...

Even his elite, his cronies, began to ignore him, and all discussed whether they could sell Chen Yu at a good price.

Chen Yu was desperate. He realized it, but it was too late.

One night, his men finally decided to take action.

When they broke into Chen Yu's military tent, they were surprised to find that Chen Yu had committed suicide in the military tent, with the bodies of his wife, son and father-in-law beside him.

They were surprised, but then they started fighting over Chen Yu's body.

After all... they are Chen Yu's cronies.

If you don't have enough merit to buy your own life, there is a high probability that you will follow the liquidated and Chen Yu to hell.

In short, after a farce, Zhao's largest and most hateful rebel force headed by Chen Yu was completely eliminated.

Cao Shen methodically followed Li Zuoche's plan and continued to wipe out the remaining rebel forces, large and small, in Zhao.

In a total of two months, Zhao's rebel forces were completely wiped out.

This also meant the complete demise of the staunch resistance faction.

While the battle continues on the battlefield, the noble families of Zhao are also killing each other.

Essentially every rebel force has its supporters behind it.

It's just that most people chose to withdraw and accept Zhao Si's rule, but there were some staunch resistance factions. They were also kicked out by the nobles of the family who welcomed the king's master, using methods that were not limited to reporting and personal attacks.

Zhao Di is completely settled...

Before settling down, Li Xian and others also thought that they had given Zhang Cang a satisfactory answer.

After all, the stubborn people have been eliminated and betrayed by them.

But they have changed their minds and are willing to follow the rules set by Zhang Cang and survive under these rules.

How great...

The new king has come, there are more official positions, and a large number of fools have been eliminated. There are fewer people competing, and the Zhao country is stable. Everything is ready to be prospered, and everyone can happily sit together and exploit the common people again. , no need to bleed.

Is there anything better than this in the world?

Of course they didn't think Zhang Cang would take action against them.

After all... Zhao's situation is very special.

What's special about it...

People... not enough!

Talent is not enough.

In this era, it is indeed difficult for nobles to govern a place without leaving aristocratic families.

Moreover, Zhao State is a vassal state, so it is impossible to expect to transport talents from Guanzhong.

Needless to say, officials, the Qin Dynasty's almost perverted officialdom always needed people to maintain it.

The official administration of the Qingming Dynasty requires a sufficient number of officials to maintain it.

After removing the nobles of the aristocratic families, it is still a question whether the scholars in the opposition can fill the ranks of Zhao's officials.

So everyone is very optimistic, even though their names are still on the list of people who want to move the royal tomb.

but!

Something unexpected happened to them!

Zhao Di has been pacified!

Chen Ping, who has always been good at dancing, suddenly became closed-door.

Zhang Cang, the good gentleman who had always been a good man, said that he didn't care about anything anymore, and only asked them to find Xiao He, who was the prime minister appointed by King Zhao himself.

Before they tried to test Xiao He's move to the royal tomb, Xiao He began to talk to them about measuring the land, checking the account books and wealth.

The key is……

It was clear that Zhao Di had suppressed the rebellion, and although the county soldiers and county soldiers had returned to their respective homes, the 50,000 seconded soldiers and horses did not leave.

Not only that, Cao Shen began to recruit soldiers and horses at this stall to form a palace garrison.

Zhao Si is the king of Zhao. Although he is not in Zhao, his palace needs to have standing troops to defend it. This is the explanation given by Cao Shen.

Anyway...

Xiao He faced the huge financial hole and almost gritted his teeth and endured it.

Now, he is not going to endure it anymore!
