Bad people in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 582 Peacock Battlefield

Ying Zheng was a resolute man. After convening discussions and confirming that the plan was indeed feasible, he ordered to stop the reconstruction project of the Yellow River.

Fortunately, not too many giant engineering mechanisms were built during this year. In addition, the main job was to cut mountains in the Taihang Mountains. Those giant stones were placed there, waiting to be dug out of the river and transported out, so The transformation of the Yellow River has only been carried out for less than a hundred miles, and the abandonment of the plan will have little impact.

It's just that the Yellow River reconstruction project here once again attracted the attention of all major forces, especially the four kingdoms of Yan, Zhao, Qi and Wei.

Many forces came to observe, wanting to see if Qin was going to make any big move again.

"The Qin State must have another conspiracy."

Robber Zhi stared at the Yellow River in the distance, very sure that the Qin State had a conspiracy.

Gao Jianli beside him was speechless, but his face was cold. He also disliked Qin State, even hated it.

Because his father died in the Hezong War that year, and the hatred for killing his father was irreconcilable!

Seeing the attitudes of the two leaders, Jing Ke felt a headache.

Seriously speaking, his rejection of the Qin State is not that strong. Although he will not join the Qin State, he does not want to fight to the death with the Qin State.

Especially leading the Mo family to fight to the death is a road of no return.

But the current situation of the Mo family is very bad. Although the two major factions of Yan and Zhao have separated, the remaining ones also hate Qin.

Moreover, the fathers of these two leaders were both killed in the battle. He could not say anything to make people let go of his father-killing hatred.

Feeling Jing Ke's struggle, Gongsun Li held Jing Ke's hand to comfort her, but this made Jing Ke feel guilty at the same time.

He had promised to marry Li'er after he became the noble son of the Mo family, but the reality was more cruel than he imagined, and he has not accomplished anything substantial until now.

Even the Mo family couldn't stabilize, and he didn't dare to say anything about marrying Li'er.

Gongsun Li wanted Jing Ke to put aside his attachment to the Mohist family, find a place to live in seclusion with her, and live a peaceful life where men farmed and women weaved, but she knew that Jing Ke's obsession was deep and there were other reasons, not just that Just let it go.

This reminded her of the Mo family's previous generation, Juzi Liuzhiheixia. According to some older generations who stayed in the city, Liuzhiheixia originally had a relationship with Mr. Nianduan, the head of the medical family. Unfortunately, the Liuzhiheixia senior In the end, he chose the Mohist family, and finally died for the Mohist family.

Will he and Jing Ke end up like this?

Is this the fate of Mohist Juzi?

……

The Qin State had known about this for a long time, and even expected it, but they didn't pay much attention to it. Their current focus was on the war in the Peacock Kingdom.

After Wang Jian passed by, the war there escalated instantly and became extremely fierce.

Of course, the main tragedy is the Peacock Kingdom.

"Is Wang Jian crazy?"

Having just pierced the brain of a gluttonous beast, Meng Tian retreated from the front line to rest and recover. Looking at the seemingly endless tide of beasts outside the front, he complained about Wang Jian's madness.

"We are training soldiers, and he is training soldiers too. He has trained this soldier to be a fierce soldier!"

Meng Yi, who was also covered in black blood, walked over and the two brothers gathered together to take a breath.

This period of time made them very tired. After Wang Jian created enough ferocious beasts, he attacked them continuously for twelve hours a day.

Originally, they could still rely on the city walls of the Peacock Kingdom's capital for defensive operations, but within a few days the city walls of the capital were destroyed, and they had to move their operations.

"It must be in the millions."

Looking at the endless tide of ferocious beasts outside, Meng Tian felt that there should be millions of them, but there were only 300,000 people on their side.

Although they are elites, they cannot withstand this continuous and endless attack.

"It's been over a long time ago. The reported size of the air force above has exceeded three million, and it is still increasing."

Meng Yi was also shocked. After putting aside the bottom line, Wang Jian showed madness and ability far beyond their imagination.

"Isn't he trying to turn the entire Peacock Kingdom into an army of vicious beasts like this?"

Meng Tian had a bad suspicion. Wang Jian really didn't treat the people of the Peacock Kingdom as human beings.

"What is the population of the Peacock Kingdom?"

Thinking of this, Meng Tian asked about the population of the Maurya Kingdom. If Wang Jian really wanted Wang Jian to transform all the population of the Maurya Kingdom into such vicious creatures, one can imagine the pressure on them. They might really be beaten back to Qin.

"According to the ancient records found in the capital, there are probably more than 70 million. However, according to the custom of the Peacock Kingdom, slaves do not have household registration and are not recorded in the books. The actual population must be more than 10 million."

Meng Yi was shocked by these two numbers for a long time when he told them.

You must know that the Qin State has only reached a population of 20 million after years of hard work. The total population of the entire Central Plains is only about 50 million.

But the Mauryan Dynasty has a population of hundreds of millions, which is really outrageous.

“What a treasure!”

Looking at the ground stained with black blood under his feet, Meng Tian couldn't help but feel a strong greed in his heart.

They must win this land. The farming system here in the Peacock Kingdom can feed hundreds of millions of people. If they use the farming system of Great Qin, the food output will definitely increase ten times, and feeding hundreds of thousands of people will not be a problem. .

No wonder both the king and the teacher attach so much importance to the Peacock Kingdom, it is indeed worthy of attention.

"Hold on for a few more days and reinforcements will arrive soon."

Lian Zhen, who was wearing a close-fitting armor, walked over and said coldly, with unconcealed fatigue on his face.

Facing such endless and tireless opponents, she also had a headache. Many of the tactics she had learned before could not be used, and most of them were hard fights.

"How many reinforcements are there?"

Meng Tian looked happy, it would be much easier if there were reinforcements.

It was really hard to fight here, and he couldn't bear it. He almost broke through the defense line several times due to the vicious army.

"One million, the third batch of reinforcements are also being mobilized."

Lian Zhen replied indifferently, Lian Zhen was still very confident in the war here.

Although they are under great pressure now, they have Da Qin's back. With Da Qin's current system and food reserves, it will be no problem even if they mobilize millions of troops to continue fighting, and it will not even affect farming.

Because now the farming within the Qin State has been replaced by agricultural machinery, which is hundreds of times more efficient than people. One person can cultivate fields that could be cultivated by hundreds of people before.

Coupled with the special chickens, ducks, rabbits, and sheep weeding and insecticides and the construction of water conservancy projects, food is no longer a problem, and there is even a surplus.

"We have to send a legion of sufficient size over. If we are too small, we can't stop these vicious creatures."

Meng Yi glanced at the beast that his brother had just killed, and was troubled by the fact that Wang Jian used the blood of the beast to create such a thing.

This kind of ferocious beast grows very fast, can also devour each other, and eats anything, whether it is animals, trees, vegetation, or people. It can quickly grow up to one foot tall, which is no bigger than the elephants here. Worse.

Fortunately, the first batch of legionnaires who came over were all over seven feet tall, especially the Black Dragon Guards, who were generally one foot tall. With their luxurious equipment, they were able to confront such vicious creatures head-on.

Even so, they suffered considerable casualties.

Fortunately, their equipment was good, most of them were only injured, and not many died directly in battle.

But the army that will be added in the future must also be of this level, and must be at least seven feet tall, otherwise they will be at a disadvantage in confrontation.

"The person leading the increase in troops this time is General Jianqing, and he also selected the people. There are 500,000 regular troops and 500,000 machine giants."

Lian Zhen said a name, which made both Meng Tian and Meng Yi feel at ease.

"General Jianqing, that's definitely no problem."

Meng Tian approved of the ceremony, and Meng Yi also nodded in approval.

They had all worked with Dianqing before, who joined the Qin State. At that time, Dianqing's position was still very low, but he was very capable. Now he has become a serious general.

Of course, he is definitely only a general at the lowest level, but being appointed to lead a million troops to support this time is also a proof of ability.

Even if you are just leading an army on the road, an army of one million people will encounter various problems, which will be a great test for the leader's ability.

But it is certainly not difficult for the ceremony. He used to be the general of Wei State and was in charge of the entire Wei State army.

And this time there is an army of 500,000 mechanical giants, which should be three feet in size. Although the ones who control such small mechanical giants are now women, and women's physical strength and size are not as good as their men, but His internal cultivation skills are not weak at all, and are enough to maintain the operation of the machine giant's power core and achieve long-term combat.

"We have taken the time to recharge our batteries in the past few days. We need to explode when reinforcements come to open a hole for them and allow them to come in."

Lian Zhen told a mission, this time she was to dispatch the army to fight for the commander. She inherited her father Zhao Kuo's talent for commanding the army, and was taught by her adoptive father Lian Po. After coming to Qin, she led the army to fight in the Western Regions. , has already begun to grow.

"Yes!" The two brothers Meng Tian looked serious, and they must be serious.

Lian Zhen said nothing more, turned around and left to check elsewhere.

Although the Fengwu List created by that thing can be connected in real time and convey orders to generals at all levels immediately, some things are still better to see with your own eyes, so that you can better understand the status of the enemy and ourselves, and make the final decision. Accurate judgment.

"Famous general!"

Meng Tian was filled with envy as he watched Lian Zhen lead his soldiers away.

He also has the talent to lead a large army, but he is not top-notch, a bit worse than Lian Zhen.

Therefore, Lian Zhen, who was a latecomer, caught up and became the commander-in-chief of this army. He and his younger brother were just deputy commanders, assisting Lian Zhen in fighting on the first front.

There are ten deputy commanders like him in total. Next to him is Li Xin, who is no worse than him.

"If Zhao Kuo hadn't been killed by Lord Wu An back then, I'm afraid he would have reached the level of Lord Wu An."

Meng Yi couldn't help but think of Zhao Kuo, who died on the battlefield of Changping. Although many classics had negative records about Zhao Kuo, there were even jokes on paper.

But they knew how terrifying Zhao Kuo was. After all, Zhao Kuo was facing Bai Qi, the Lord of Wu'an who had reached his peak. At that time, Zhao Kuo was just starting out, and it was his first time commanding an army of hundreds of thousands in combat.

Even so, the fight with Wu Anjun in the early stage was back and forth. If Zhao Wangdan hadn't issued a series of Wang orders to urge him, he would not have fought so desperately, and finally fell into Wu Anjun's plan and was defeated.

This also caused their Qin army to suffer heavy losses that time.

Now the coach Lian Zhen has grown up. It is no exaggeration to say that he is a famous general. He has achieved it one step ahead of them.

It’s impossible to disagree with this.

"I heard that the coach has some relationship with our teacher."

Meng Tian's expression changed, and an ambiguous smile appeared on Meng Tian's face.

Although it was just hearsay, he felt it should be true.

"I know about this. I even asked General Lian Po about it. I heard that the coach's former fiancé died at the hands of Huang Tianhou."

An equally burly figure came over and whispered this gossip.

The person who came was none other than Li Xin, who was in charge of commanding the front line formation next to him.

"Teacher's marriages always start like this. It seems that the coach's final destination has been decided, and he will be called Master's Wife in the future."

Meng Tian nodded, he was very familiar with this style of painting. The teacher's former confidante were very noisy. When they were in Baiyue, those mistresses often worked together to plot, but unfortunately they ended in miserable defeat every time.

"How's the fighting going over there?"

Meng Yi asked about the situation of the battle. He came here to take a breather and let the deputy general temporarily accept the command of the battle formation. At the same time, he came to communicate with his brother.

Although the official list also allows them to communicate with each other, they can only communicate briefly. It is okay to pass on some combat orders, but more detailed ones are difficult to complete and need to be further improved.

"It's not very good. Now we can barely maintain the energy of the soldiers, but we can't go on forever."

When talking about business, Li Xin looked serious, and he didn't have a good solution to the current war situation.

The opponent we faced this time was really too crazy and too special.

In other words, they are all warrior corps, with luxurious weapons and equipment, and sufficient food and grass. Coupled with the huge military formation they have formed now and the support of the machine corps, otherwise they would not be able to bear it at all.

"The coach just said that reinforcements will arrive in a few days. Let us take some time to recharge our batteries. When the time comes, we will explode to open a gap and receive the reinforcements."

Meng Tian told the news, it would be great if reinforcements could come.

"How many people? Who is leading the army?"

Li Xin's bloodshot eyes lit up, looking forward to it.

If the reinforcements are large enough and strong enough, they can turn their defense into an attack.

"There are millions of troops, led by the General of Ceremony."

Meng Yi replied, I believe the king must have some ideas when he sends General Jianqing to lead his army.

"Dianqing finally became a general?"

Li Xin was even more excited. He was already familiar with Dianqing. Even when Dianqing and Mei Sanniang entered Qin from his defense zone, he was the one responsible for receiving them.

He knew that Dianqing eventually joined the Qin State, but he didn't expect that he would be promoted so quickly and become a general.

In their new system of Qin, only ten thousand people can be called a legion, and the leader is a general, who is qualified to be called a general.

"He used to work as a civilian in the military. He was mainly responsible for the improvement and promotion of Qi and Blood Martial Arts. The military merit system is different from that of pure generals like us. He must have achieved results by becoming a general so quickly."

Meng Yi said that there are also civilians in their military attache system, most of whom are responsible for logistics and military training. Dianqing joined the military training department and participated in the improvement of Qi and Blood martial arts.

Although the teacher created Qi and Blood Martial Arts, the threshold is too high and it is not conducive to popularizing it in the entire army. This is a flaw.

The teacher himself has too many things to do and does not have time to further perfect and popularize the Qi and Blood Martial Arts, so they can only do it, but unfortunately there has been no great results.

Nowadays, only the Black Dragon Guards who have taken the refined blood of the black dragon can cultivate the power of Qi and blood, and other warrior legions have not succeeded.

If the entire army can cultivate the power of Qi and blood, their combat power will definitely increase several times.

This time Dianqing was quickly promoted to general and even led the army to the front line, which must have been a major breakthrough.

He was looking forward to this!

"I can finally start to fight back. I've had enough of this birdiness."

Turning his head to look at the endless tide of vicious creatures outside, Li Xin had a ferocious smile on his face.

Ever since they faced off against the vicious army created by Wang Jian, they had been fighting passively on defense. The main reason was that the opponent's numbers were too insane and they could fight continuously, which made them very passive.

"Don't be careless. Judging from the current situation, Wang Jian is afraid that he wants to transform the entire Peacock Kingdom into this vicious army, and the number will become even more exaggerated in the future.

The population of the Peacock Kingdom is definitely over 10 million, and the war situation will become more severe in the future. "

Meng Yi did not dare to relax at all about the future. If that were the case, the war here would definitely be difficult to fight.

"hiss!"

Li Xin couldn't help but take a breath.

"The Peacock Kingdom has that many people?"

The number of tens of millions is too exaggerated. You must know that the Qin State currently has a population of only 20 million. If we count the children born in these years, the Peacock Kingdom actually has a population of tens of millions, which is larger than the total population of their Central Plains. Twice as much.

"The land is good!"

After stepping on the ground stained with black blood, Meng Tian was very passionate about this land. At the same time, he wondered why there were so many pits in the terrain in the Central Plains.

The land in their Qin country is not very good and tends to be arid. The land in the Six Kingdoms of Shandong is okay, but it is prone to floods, and then there are all kinds of deceptive mountains.

There is absolutely no comparison with the Peacock Kingdom.

“It’s a great place!”

Looking down at the ground, Li Xin understood somewhat, but he also had doubts in his heart.

"The Peacock Kingdom just allows Wang Jian to act like this?"

There are too many evil beasts transformed into legions, and each evil creature represents a human life, and that is at least a minimum.

"In the eyes of some people, the common people are just a number. Don't forget that Wei Wang Wuji used one million people to make a deal with Xiang Liu.

Moreover, the Peacock Kingdom is a slave country, and those slaves are not even human beings in the eyes of the superiors. "

Meng Yi understands this very well. Since the Peacock Kingdom's own army is not good, it is quite cost-effective to switch to this kind of vicious beast army to fight. All it takes is to hand over some slaves to Wang Jian, and there is no need to distinguish between the old and the weak.

"It's also because our Great Qin is too strong, so the Peacock King is afraid."

Meng Tian has some opinions on this aspect. The current Peacock Kingdom is just like the six Shandong countries. It is full of fear of their Qin country. In order to fight against their Great Qin, they will do anything and completely abandon the bottom line.

The Six Kingdoms have sacrificed a lot of their bottom line in recent years. The corvee and taxes have been increased, and there have been widespread complaints among the people.
