Chapter 522: The Hard-working King (two-in-one chapter)(1/2)

Three years ago, the Fan and Zhao's joint attack on Yiluo's Rong was successful and failed.

Their success lies in the fact that they occupied a lot of land, but the losses were heavier than expected, and the seizure could not make up for the loss.

The Yiluo Rong did not surrender. Their choice was to completely argue with the Jin State and join forces with the Luhun Rong, and the Man clan began to harass the Zhou royal family.

In response, the Zhou royal family complained and the Zhou emperor sent ministers to "Xintian" to condemn him. Not only did he make Fan and Zhao family dirty, but the reputation of Jin State on "international" would definitely become worse.

With this in mind, the Fan and Zhao clans had to do something under the pressure from the Zhou royal family and the Jin nationality, such as strengthening the attack on the Yiluo Rong and finding ways to disintegrate the three-party alliance of the Yiluo Rong, Lu Hun Rong and Man clans.

Therefore, in recent years, not only the Yin family but the Wei family have been fighting in a big smuggling battle, but the Fan family and the Zhao family have also been fighting.

What can be compared is that the Yin family and Wei family have achieved their strategic goals, while the Fan family and Zhao family are in a tendency to become increasingly troublesome.

What Lu Wu knew was that the Fan family and the Zhao family were fighting this war in a "traditional" way. They repeatedly tasted the loss of "not being virtuous" in Yiluo's Rong, which led to the Fan family and the Zhao family turning their minds back and starting to not follow the rules.

As Fan and Zhao's thinking changed, the days of Yiluo's Rong were getting worse and worse, and the war was temporarily no signs that it would stop.

"As I know, Zhao's repeated recruitment, and the number of troops used is as many as the number of three 'departments'?" Lu Wu saw Wei Qi nodding and asked with a more surprised expression: "The Zhao's captain has increased dramatically for several years, and the same is true for the troops?"

Wei Qi said: "The soldiers of the three 'teachers' are already at the limit of Zhao's family."

Wei has been very disagreeing with Zhao recently, and the intelligence should be credible.

Lu Wu was willing to believe that there was another reason, and Jin State became a little crazy over the past few years.

At the most, the Yin family mobilized one "army" and three "divisions". Of course, it was not all "field troops", which means that the quality was uneven.

The Wei family used its troops to reach an "army", and the two "divisions" and two "brigades" in it fought westward, and one "division" followed the king south to participate in the alliance, while the rest were on missions in the fiefdom.

The Fan family has been crazy in recent years, and once reached the number of two "army" and three "departments".

No matter what the troops Fan used for, it scared the rest of the families, resulting in a series of chain effects.

For example, when Lu Wu learned that the Fan family had used two "army" and three "divisions" forces, he quickly assembled new troops to stand by.

The other families have their own sense of crisis.

Zhong Xingyan must have felt it was amazing when he saw it, and passively recruited one "army" and two "departments" from Xun and Zhong Xing.

Zhiying recruited an "army" to set up a defensive posture to be on guard.

Han Qi, the head of the Han family, changed his low-key attitude during the Han Jue period and recruited four "teachers".

There may be some heads of family members who are brave enough to hide their weaknesses in the rest of the family, and most of them have pulled out the troops that their family can gather.

As a result, after looking at it in one circle, Jin State is really a military-fruitist country. The total force gathered by the aristocrats across the country is almost reaching the fourteen "army" of Jin State!

That is the "army" organized by Jin State! One army of five hundred soldiers and 37,500 soldiers, and the fourteen "army" are seven thousand soldiers and 525,000 soldiers.

Of course, no matter what the more than 500,000 soldiers are, the number alone makes people tremble all over when they hear it!

In fact, among the more than 500,000 people, the number of "scholars" and "speople" is definitely not much higher, and the rest cannot be all "envious". There are definitely many farmers who have brought them together to make up the numbers.

What are the characteristics of a military-fruitist country? Generally speaking, everything is for war service, and the exaggerated troop mobilization rate is just a basic requirement.

When Lu Wu learned that the nationwide mobilized forces had combined about fourteen "army", his thoughts were: "Damn, no one can think of it in the next year."

It is very realistic for him to have such an idea. To assemble "scholars" and "spokens" and "envious" means that each ban proactively used the recruitment quota of that year. If he wants to use troops again, he needs to take charge of the logistics supply.

Another point is that drawing manpower will inevitably lead to a reduction in productivity, and even forced production to be interrupted.

Resources are consumed, but production is stopped. The recruited army has not achieved any results. It would be strange if everyone can live a better life!

The king is not a blind man or a deaf man, he must have been angry.

Usually, various families are recruited and dispatched troops within their share to complain.

Damn!

It turns out that when various families are ruthless, they can use so many troops to recruit?

The king doesn't care what the destructive mobilization and reasonable mobilization are. He only sees that the troops of each family are really strong, and he will inevitably feel fear when he is angry.

The performance of the public tribe was also very impressive this time. The armies of all the public tribes together accounted for four of the fourteen "armys", and in terms of number, any non-public individual family was extra.

This made the king speechless and angry.

It turns out that the public clan is so strong, but they usually pretend to be dead dogs.

At that moment, the king's hand seemed to tremble. Something in his hand hit the desk, and he shouted hysterically: I'm so angry!!!

Aren’t the princes just a family? The king is the head of the family, and the rest of the families can be called Xiaozong. In fact, it is the same as Zhongxingyan’s right to order the Xun family, Zhongxing family, Zhi family, and Cheng family. Then he encountered the situation of Xiaozong being disobedient.

The "Quwo" series is messed up.

This made the public clan look like this now.

If the king wants to blame, he can only blame his ancestors. If he says anything else, he will be embarrassed and will not change the fact that the public tribe is currently in a mess.

Lu Wu was able to guess the king's mood in general, but he was shocked to tell the truth. He was very glad that he did not immediately replace the Zhao family Ying surname.

Just look at the troops mobilized this time, and don’t see how long it can last for such troops to fight. Isn’t it scary?

Lu Wu worked hard to calculate and concluded that mobilizing two "armys (70,000 troops)" by himself would be a limit, and no matter how much it is, it would not help but drag down.

After all, if you are a living person, you have to eat, and you cannot just shout "Waaaaaaagh" with both hands.

This time, the number of troops mobilized by the Fan family confirmed that the Fan family is the strongest in Jin Dynasty, as a single family.

Lu Wu also saw that his brother-in-law Zhao Wu held Shi Yi's thick thigh, and Zhao's family would choose to follow the Fan family's head in the future.

Is this betrayal? It can't be considered completely.

Lu Wu moved his mouth and Zhao Wu became one of the "Queen" of Jin State.

Without Lu Wu's recommendation, the king would have allowed Zhao Wu to obtain the position of nobles, and the Zhao family did not form an alliance with the Yin family in any form.

To talk about betrayal, the people who betrayed Zhao Wu were the king and Han Jue.

The king and Han Jue took care of Zhao Wu so much, especially Han Jue gave the most, which almost caused Han to be pulled into a deep pit.

If Zhao Wu makes some negative actions against Han, things will become extremely interesting.

Lu Wu personally sent Wei Qi to the door of his house. He was about to find a place to purify for a short while, when a retainer came to ask for instructions.

"Master, is this kind of official documents sent to 'Yong'?" Pu Yuan asked.

Lu Wu is the ruler of Qin!

Others are not on the side of the Qin capital "Yong", but some of the Qin government affairs need to be stamped with the ruling seal before they can be carried out.

In this way, it becomes inevitable to make official documents back and forth.

Thank you for this is an era where everything you do is slow. It is really normal to delay things that are not too urgent for a month or two.

Pu Yuan has integrated into Yin.

Lu Wu actually needs Pu Yuan's existence too.

The Que family was too strong, and the Yin family got too much "legacy" from the Que family. Although the state form is a kind of "left hand to right hand", without the help of "internal" personnel, it is really difficult for the Yin family to digest the Que family well.

Lu Wu's absorption of the original retainers of the Que clan would be a good choice at low cost. It would be foolish to rely on the cooperation of the Que clans to digest it.

Will he attack Ku Cheng? The answer is yes, but it will definitely not be the near future.

The Kucheng family is a small clan of the Que family, and they are now completely independent.

To a certain extent, the Yin family needs the existence of the Kucheng family to test some people inside, and also make it for other families to see.

Lu Wu looked at the sky, ordered a series of things, and took the appropriate number of guards to set off for the palace.

Today is the day when the king and all the "Qing" hold a meeting.

They will communicate on many things and decide what major things the State of Jin will do next.

Lu Wu was not the first "Qing" to come to the palace, and he would definitely not be the last one.

In short, the king of Jin and the six "Qing" have not been together for a long time, which is the first time in three years.

The meeting occasion is very formal, and there are no idle people.

That is to say, the other nobles did not participate, and no temple people or palace maids were present.

The Central Bank of China first talked about what has happened recently, and the topic focused on changes in the international situation.

Including several major conflicts between Wei and Cao, a series of events about the Zheng State, a lot of bullshits on the Chen State, the changes in the situation in Zheng State were dazzling, Song State’s claims to Jin State, the situation in Wu State, etc.

Of course, it is impossible to miss the State of Chu, and it is still the goal of the Central Bank of China Yan's special talk.

It sounds strange. In the past three years, there have been civil strife in various countries where national wars have not broken out, both big and small.

Most countries did not have a war in Jin and Chu. They either intensified conflicts with their neighbors or had substantial military confrontations.

"I heard that the crown prince met in the 'Tang' alliance. The 'Cang, Lai, Zeng, Fan, Chen, Xu, Shujiu." Zhong Xingyan said as he laughed and continued to recite the list: "Yihu, Zhongli, Ganyue, Ju, and He also went to the alliance."

There are so many countries participating in the alliance. Tang, Dun, Chao, Lai, Zeng, Chen, Xu, and Shujiu are the "meat" in the Chu State's bowl, and they can't escape no matter how much.

Yihu, Zhongli, and Ganyue are all southern countries. They have more or less wars with Chu, and there are many conflicts in terms of them, so it is difficult to judge how to participate in the alliance.

The Ju State first did the annexation of the Jin State, and then went to participate in the alliance held by the Chu State? It was really too slaughtering! Or maybe, they knew that something was wrong and wanted to hug the thick thigh of the Chu State?

Zhong Xingyan looked at Lu Wu and said with a blamed expression: "Ju is a country of Yin's diplomatic relations. Why did Yin's indulge Ju to surrender to Chu?"

As for Yuanrong, he is qualified to blame him.
