The Six Arts of the Gentleman in the Bright Moon of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 841 Fusu joins the army [Subscribe*Monthly Tickets]

Criticizing Han Fei was just for the old people in Bingzhou to see. What Yan Yan and An Qisheng wanted was to stir up those old people in Bingzhou who had lost their respect for power.

Wei Zhuang was just an instigator, and Han Fei was just the chicken used to scare the monkeys.

"Congratulations, sir!"

All the officials of the Supreme Court came forward to congratulate him.

The Grand Censor is one of the top three positions, equivalent to the Imperial Lieutenant and the Prime Minister.

"Do your job well, and don't let yourself fall into my hands one day. If you do, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Zhao Gao was still very happy.

As for offending people?
What the Chief Censor did was to offend people.

Zhao Gao was originally a person without any background. Now that he has the support of Your Majesty, what does it matter if he offends others?
However, Zhao Gao immediately went to see Yu Qing, who had recommended him. He also wanted to know from Yu Qing who could be moved and who could not be moved, and the extent of this purge.

"The Censorate is a noble organization. Although it may offend people, it cannot completely separate itself from the other officials!"

Yu Qing was very satisfied with Zhao Gao's attitude.

"What does your Excellency mean?" Zhao Gao pretended to be ignorant, giving Yu Qing a chance to teach him by words and deeds.

"Leave the dirty work to the Jinyiwei. After all, they have too many lice and are not afraid of being bitten. They don't have a good reputation either!"

"The most important thing is that behind the Jinyiwei are the emperor and empress!"

Yu Qing said with a smile.

"Yes!" Zhao Gao nodded.

Although the Emperor is behind the Censorate, if it offends too many nobles, all the officials will unite to impeach it.

But the Jinyiwei is different. Behind them are the emperor and empress. They are your majesty’s bedside companions. No matter how big the trouble is, is there anyone who dares to impeach the emperor and empress?
To put it bluntly, the Censorate plays the good guy and the Embroidered Uniform Guard plays the bad guy.

"As for who can be moved and who cannot be moved, I believe you have a scale in your heart. If you are unsure, then look at the Jinyiwei. If the Jinyiwei dare not move someone, then don't touch it!"

Yu Qing continued.

Zhao Gao nodded again.

If he were to touch someone that even the Jinyiwei dared not touch, he would be seeking death.

"Also, this time, your majesty's intention is to crack down on people, so if you can avoid killing people, it's best not to kill people!"

Yu Qing reminded again.

After all, the country had just been founded and if he took action against a founding hero, it would easily bring bad reputation to Yan Yan.

"Here!" Zhao Gao nodded.

……

In the palace, Yan Yan met Meng Tian and Han Xin who had rushed back from the army.

"Your Majesty, are you finally going to take action against the Donghu?" Han Xin was very excited.

Although the Donghu people submitted to Bingzhou, it was not part of Bingzhou's territory after all.

As for the grassland peoples, unless they are completely conquered, they are secretly waiting to overthrow each other.

"The Donghu are nothing more than a minor problem. The real purpose of launching military operations against the Donghu this time is to cultivate the character of Prince Fusu!" Yan Yan said seriously.

Meng Tian and Han Xin frowned. They did not expect that Yan Yan actually attached so much importance to Fusu that he actually used a war to destroy a country to cultivate Fusu's character.

Military affairs are not to be taken lightly.

Using war as sparring partner for a young master made both men somewhat uncomfortable.

If Fusu was the prince of Bingzhou, they would have accepted him, but the key point was that Fusu was the eldest prince of Qin.

If this gets out, the lower-level soldiers will be somewhat resentful.

"You don't have to treat him as a young master. Just treat him as an ordinary Red Flame Knight!"

Yan Yan also knew the dissatisfaction of the two people and continued to speak.

He didn't want Fusu to serve as a military supervisor in the Red Flame Cavalry or the army to gain merit. "Ah, this!" Han Xin felt a little numb.

He would rather Yan Yan threw Fusu into the high-level staff of the Red Flame Cavalry Army. At worst, Fusu would be worshipped as a sacrifice so that he would not be in danger.

But being thrown into the Red Flame Cavalry as a soldier is very dangerous.

The only times in the world when the Red Flame Cavalry would be worthy of taking action are during decisive battles, and at those times, they would not be able to guarantee Fusu's safety.

Meng Tian was also a little panicked. Fusu's safety was of top priority. If he was thrown into the Red Flame Cavalry and trained like them, could Fusu withstand it?

Moreover, every major battle that the Red Flame Cavalry participated in was a decisive battle where the outnumbered side defeated the larger force.

Not to mention that Han Xin couldn't guarantee it, even if he personally commanded, he couldn't guarantee Fusu's safety.

"If you don't want Fusu to die on the battlefield, then let him get injured more and bleed more during daily training!" Yan Yan said without any doubt.

"Yes!" Meng Tian and Han Xin had no choice but to agree.

"No need for special care. When you can grow from an ordinary Red Flame Cavalry to the 500th Lord of the Red Flame Cavalry, you can return to the Royal City!"

Yan Yan continued.

"Yes!" Meng Tian and Han Xin nodded again.

Although it is easy for the Red Flame Cavalry to gain military merit, it is also more difficult to be promoted than other armies.

Anyone who can join the Red Flame Cavalry is an elite in the army.

In other words, except for the Yulin Guards, any of the five hundred leaders of the Red Flame Cavalry could be appointed as a thousand-man captain or even a colonel if sent to other guards.

I'm afraid it will be very difficult for Fusu to return to the royal city within three to five years.

Yan Yan did not say any more about Fusu, and discussed the strategy of destroying Donghu with Meng Tian and Han Xin.

With Bingzhou's current military strength, it is not difficult to destroy Donghu.

However, we must not be careless on the battlefield.

The three of them, in cooperation with the staff and generals of the National Guard's Office, conducted dozens of military chess simulations before finally determining the tactics for this battle.

Bingzhou did not send many troops, but they did send a lot.

Led by the Red Flame Cavalry, with the support of 50,000 Bingzhou Iron Cavalry and 20,000 infantry, the total army was 100,000.

As for when to take action, it depends on when Zhao Gao can collect enough money and food for the army to go out.

The purpose of notifying Meng Tian and Han Xin was to allow them to prepare for the battle in advance without worrying about secret leaks.

Even if the secret was leaked, the Donghu would not be able to resist.

Han Xin returned to the Red Flame Cavalry’s base and brought back the lonely Fusu.

Even the Qin Palace guards around Fusu were not allowed to follow.

“Without going through wind and rain, how can it grow into a towering tree and protect the people?”

"He is the eldest son of the Qin State. In the future, he will become the king of Qin State who protects all the people. If he can only grow up under our protection, how can he protect the entire China and the entire Qin State?"

Yan Yan suppressed and stopped all the people who were protecting Fusu.

Han Xin also received a death order that he could not provide any help to Fusu and that Fusu must be allowed to grow up to be able to stand on his own.

You can even target one or two people specifically to make Fusu truly understand the wickedness of human nature.

Once the order was given, Han Xin had no choice but to follow it.

It is not easy to become one of the five hundred leaders of the Red Flame Cavalry, let alone being specifically targeted.

Zhao Jia wanted to say something, but was beaten back.

"After studying for so long, you have to use it in the end. If you only know metaphysics, then there is no point in learning it!"

"You have to learn how to use it eventually!"
