Daqin: Prince Peerless, guarding Hangu for ten years!

Chapter 421 Tell the world and recruit wise men!
In this way, even if such a drought occurs again in the future, Zhao will be able to deal with it easily.

It’s not like there will be such large-scale casualties again!
In this era, there are basically only a few ways to deal with drought.

Grain reserves, immigration, relocation of farmland, and the construction of water conservancy projects.

The first is food reserves. It is said that if you cultivate for three years, you will have enough food for one year; if you cultivate for nine years, you will have enough food for three years. If you cultivate for 30 years, even if there is a drought or flood, the people will be able to fill their stomachs.

However, since the Battle of Handan, Zhao State not only failed to develop its national strength, but even spared no effort to unite other countries to launch a joint offensive against Qin State, but in the end was defeated and fled.

It was this battle that caused huge losses in its national power.

Coupled with the various wars that followed, the State of Zhao arbitrarily requisitioned more grain from the people, resulting in these people no longer having food in their hands.

Right now, let alone nine, 30, or even three years of farming, these people can't produce it!

As for letting the people move, that is even more impossible.

There are so many people in the Zhao Kingdom that it is impossible for any country to be willing to take them in. Moreover, everyone knows that Qin and Zhao have a century-long feud. Who would be willing to provoke these Zhao people? The powerful Qin State.

Now the only places for the people of Zhao State to go are to Qin State and the western grasslands. Only by going to these two places can they get a chance of survival.

However, Zhao State has enmity with these two places, especially the western grasslands. Not to mention that the people of Zhao State are unwilling to go, even the people of Qin are not willing to go.

It is even more impossible to move their fields. Even if he allows these people to change their land for farming, where can they go? The entire land of Zhao State is covered by drought, where can these people move their fields?

As for the construction of water conservancy projects, planning has already begun, and...

Suddenly, Ying Jun's eyes flashed with light, and he remembered something in his mind. He quickly turned to look at Gai Nie and asked, "Where are the ministers who were sent from Qin to manage the counties and counties settled now?"

Gai Nie immediately responded: "Replying to Sir, these people are currently placed in the post station in Daijun City, waiting for the Lord's arrangements at any time."

Yingjun nodded slightly. It would take some time to find the water source. Someone in Xianyang City also needed to convince King Qin to obtain funds for the construction of water conservancy projects.

The only thing that can be done now is to implement the county system first.

"In that case, let's summon all these ministers into the palace!"

After Yingjun finished speaking, he then looked at Gai Nie who was standing next to him, and said in a loud voice: "Mr. Gai, please set off for Xianyang immediately and inform Jia Xu and Wang Zizhu of the situation here. I can rest assured if someone goes to persuade the King of Qin."

"In addition, in case other countries have plots against Qin due to this matter, I will send a message to General Meng Ao and Wang Jian to let them lead the army back to Qin."

The other countries were originally very afraid of Qin's strength. Now that Zhao was destroyed, the remaining five countries would naturally choose to join forces to keep warm.

Once the news of the construction of water conservancy here spreads, it is impossible for these five countries to attack Qin at this time.

"Sir, I admire your foresight for your foresight. I will set off for Xianyang immediately!"

"Please sir, please take care of this girl. If you don't give up, let this girl follow you from now on!"

Gai Nie glanced at Xia Yufang who was following behind him, then cupped his hands towards Yingjun.

After all, he had said that he would take in this girl, and he would feel uneasy if he ignored her.

Letting her follow Yingjun might not be a way out!
Ying Jun glanced at Xia Yufang not far away, thought for a moment, and nodded in agreement.

Historically, she was called the medicine-gathering girl.

The current level of medical skills in the Qin State lags far behind that of later generations. If they can be trained into a generation of miracle doctors, it will also be of great help to the Qin State.

After seeing Yingjun's agreement, Gai Nie immediately waved his hand and summoned Xia Yufang, who was standing not far away. He said with a solemn expression: "From now on, you will follow His Highness the Crown Prince. As for how far you can go in the future, it all depends on You're on your own." Xia Yufang blinked and looked at the young man in front of him in disbelief.

She always thought that this young man was just a general of the Qin State, but she did not expect that this man turned out to be the prince of the Qin State.

Among the countries, the status of princes is the same as that of ministers in the court. Even because they are the sons of the king, they are often sent to other countries as hostages in exchange for the safety of their own country and even the trust of other countries. Reach an alliance.

Just like this, if these princes want to gain status and power in the court, they have to compete for the position of prince. At the same time, they must have extraordinary abilities and be appreciated by the king, so that they can successfully become princes.

But at such an age, he has already become the prince of Qin!

If Gai Nie hadn't said it himself, she wouldn't have believed anything he said.

"Xia Yufang has met His Highness the Crown Prince!"

With a surprised look in his eyes, Xia Yufang slowly knelt on the ground and saluted.

Yingjun raised his hand: "Get up, you are taken in by Mr. Gai, and you will be worthy of Mr. Gai from now on!"

"Xia Yufang, thank you sir!"

After Xia Yufang saluted again, he stood up, lowered his head and secretly looked at Yingjun from time to time.

It is said that people in the royal family are cold, cruel, and extremely ambitious people.

But she didn't see any of this in Yingjun. All she saw was kindness and kindness.

Unknowingly, Xia Yufang's warm smile appeared in Xia Yufang's mind again, and his cheeks glowed slightly with a hint of red.

Yingjun didn't notice this, but turned to look in the direction of the palace, and waved his arms: "Go back to the palace!"

Zhao Yun and Gai Nie separated from the team and acted independently.

Soon, everyone returned to the palace.

After Yingjun entered the hall, he turned his head, looked at Xia Yufang who was following him, and ordered the servant next to him: "Leave her down to wash up and change clothes."

"Here!"

The servant shouted and left with Xia Yufang.

Not long after the two left, a general walked in from outside the palace, knelt on the ground and said, "General Qi, what should we do with the veteran Zhao general Lian Po, the queen and many ministers who were detained before?"

Yingjun took a deep breath, touched his chin, and frowned slightly.

I almost forgot about it.

If all these ministers and the queen were killed, it would probably only make many Zhao people who had surrendered feel hatred.

If you can't kill, then...

Thinking of this, Ying Jun looked up at the general and said calmly: "Exile them all to the border. Whether they live or die depends on their own destiny!"

"In addition, from now on, we will announce it to the world and recruit wise men. Anyone with talent can come and give it a try!"
