Back to Daqin to be Emperor

Chapter 300 The days are numbered!
On the straight road, horses galloped on it, stirring up waves of dust.

And the people along the way saw this scene with joy and excitement in their eyes. They knew that every time this happened, the north must be fighting again.

Naturally, under such circumstances, the common people hoped that they would be lucky enough to behead one of the enemy's heads, and in this way, they would be awarded a title.

After Shang Yang's reform and the implementation of the military meritorious land system, the people of Qin State are all warlike and full of desire for war.

People in other countries are afraid of him like a tiger, but the people in Qin country are happy when they hear the battle, and send their children to the battlefield to kill the enemy and make meritorious service.

The horse galloped all the way, even after entering Xianyang City, the speed remained unabated, galloping all the way to the gate of Xianyang Palace.

"Urgent report in the army, urgent report in the army, urgent report in the army!"

Immediately, the man was sent all the way to Yingzheng, handed the letter in his arms to Yingzheng, and passed out. He went all the way from Shangjun to Xianyang. I can't bear such a toss.

After reading the letter, Yingzheng turned to the side and said, "Han Tan, immediately summon the Right Prime Minister Feng Quji, Left Prime Minister Li Si, Shangqing Mengyi, Shaofu Ling Zhang Han, and the eunuch... to this place."

Following the series of names that Ying Zheng pointed out, Han Tan didn't dare to delay, knowing that the matter was urgent, something must have happened in the Northland.

And thinking that since the beginning of spring this year, Ying Zheng ordered Zhang Han to transport arms to the Northland several times. It is self-evident that the Northland is about to fight.

Half an hour later, all the people Yingzheng pointed out stood in the Xianyang Palace, handed the report to everyone, and after turning around in everyone's hands, they returned to Yingzheng's hands.

Ying Zheng glanced at Li Si and said, "Prime Minister, how is the mobilization of the young and old?"

"It's basically finished." Li Si thought for a while, with a look of hesitation on his face, and said, "Your Majesty, in less than two months, it will be the autumn harvest season. If the war delays, I'm afraid it will affect the autumn harvest."

Li Si would never raise such a question in the past, because the previous wars were so short that there was no need to raise it.

However, Li Si, who knew Yingzheng's plan, deeply knew that the mobilization of the young and strong this time was not just as simple as mobilizing to deliver military strategic supplies, but after that, they would go to the northern border to defend the border.

One of the delays is that there is no time to harvest the grain, and the deployment of such a large number of young and strong people can imagine the impact on the grain harvest.

You must know that a strong laborer at this time is almost the main labor force of a family, and most of the work in the family depends on him.

In this way, Li Si had no choice but to say, after all, the amount of grain produced was related to taxation, and he couldn't be careless.

This matter still has to be decided by Ying Zheng!

At this time, Zhang Han came from station, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the Shaofu has recently made a batch of farm tools and sickles, all of which are made of iron. According to my estimate, if a sickle is distributed to each young and strong, it will cost half a year at most. It can be harvested in a month."

"It's just that if Shaofu manufactures sickles, it will definitely affect the manufacture of ordnance. I wonder if it is possible to suspend the construction of Xindu City so that all the artisans who built the new capital can participate in the production of Shaofu. After the war is over and the autumn harvest is completed After that, build a new capital?"

Yingzheng fell into deep thought, and after a while, Yingzheng stood up, with a sharp look in his eyes, and said, "Zhang Han, from now on, the construction of the new capital and imperial mausoleum will be stopped, and all manpower will be given priority. The rest of the mansion will be used as young and strong, transporting ordnance and supplies, and after the war is over, some of them will be transferred and sent to the Great Wall to guard the border."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone here was shocked!

They couldn't believe Ying Zheng's words. Judging by Ying Zheng's posture, it was clear that life was not enough, and he tried his best to completely overthrow the barbarians who invaded this time.

Even the imperial mausoleum was not repaired, just to support the front line. It can be said that Yingzheng has supported the battlefield in northern Xinjiang to the maximum extent.

Yingzheng also knew that the outcome of this battle would have a profound impact on Fusu's future arrangements. If he was defeated in the end, it would be extremely difficult for Fusu to do whatever he wanted to do next. If he agreed, Fusu would be able to do anything in the Northland with a narrow victory.

Yingzheng knew the importance of this matter, so he made up his mind to give Fusu the greatest support.

If this is the case, even if Fusu failed, it can only show that Fusu is really not suitable for the position of Daqin heir.

It all depends on Fusu's choice!
Meng Yi felt that there seemed to be something wrong with it, but he couldn't tell.

Zhang Han was stunned for a while, and finally said: "No."

At first, Zhang Han's plan was to transfer the craftsmen from Xindu to the Shaofu. In this way, the pressure on the Shaofu would be greatly reduced. Unexpectedly, now even the craftsmen and prisoners who built the imperial mausoleum were all transferred. Come up and prepare for this war.

Looking at the faces of the people, Ying Zheng understood what they were thinking, and said, "My dear family, please take a look at this memorial handed over from the Northland."

Ying Zheng gave a glance, and Han Tan took the memorial from the case table, handed it to Li Si, and after everyone read it, he felt a little dazed.

Ying Zheng said: "Everyone, this Hu people's invasion is not a trivial matter in the past, it is a great opportunity to hit the Hu people hard, how can we miss it?"

"The reason why I did this is also to tell you my determination, and I hope you can understand my good intentions."

Everyone immediately took off their hats and said: "The ministers can't understand His Majesty's intentions, it is really a capital crime, a capital crime!"

"This time, I hope that our monarchs and ministers can work together to attack the barbarians." Ying Zheng raised his hand slightly, signaling everyone to stand up.

Ying Zheng said: "Prime Minister Zuo Li Si, the collection and transportation of the army's food and grass is all up to you!"

"Shangqing Mengyi, I have given you my sword to perform the duties of an inspector. When you see this sword, it is as if I have come in person. If someone under two thousand shi violates the law during the war, they can beheaded first and then played. Officials with more than two thousand shi can be detained first."

After finishing speaking, Han Tan held Ying Zheng's sword in front of Meng Yi.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!" Meng Yi hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and took Ying Zheng's saber respectfully.

"Prime Minister You Feng Quji, I know you have some spies, this time you need to send some people to pretend to be merchants and enter the barbarian land to check for information."

"No." Feng Quji lowered his head, his eyes were a little erratic.

"Young Mansion Commander Zhang Han, eunuch, this time you must do your best to supply the front-line armour, armor and horses without any delay."

"promise!"

　In the past two days, I helped the family with work, and the update was unstable. Please forgive me, readers.
