Chapter 25 The Merchant

Wang Jian sighed.

What Wang said is indeed the truth.

Continuous victory will make people inflate.

Although Guan Zhi clearly understood that if he continued to fight, he would finally face a crushing defeat.

However, this kind of reason does not always exist.

When the frequency of victory is frequent enough, when the confidence and joy born from victory become habits.

So, will the rationality of being prepared for danger in times of peace still exist?

Wang Jian doesn't know the answer.

Because he himself is also a witness to victory.

He knew that there would be failure, but he often forgot the inevitability of failure.

I always think that with the mobilization capabilities of countries such as Zhao, Wei and South Korea, they will not be able to organize effective resistance in the short term.

I always thought that I could win more games.

I always think that I can strive for more merits.

This is not just Wang Jian’s idea alone, but the idea of ​​most of the Qin people who participated in the war.

Everyone thinks that, so that's the truth.

At this time, people who clearly know that "will fail soon, and know that soon, Zhao, Han, Wei and other three countries will organize a large army to die with the Qin people" are like crazy.

Wang Jian felt a little depressed.

When I walked out of the tent, I saw the happy soldiers, the young soldiers who whispered and said that this war had been made several times and could be promoted three times or four times.

They are so excited.

Wang Jian probably knew why they were excited at this time.

Unlike the people of Zhao, the only way for the people of Qin to accumulate wealth is to farm, but the amount of land in the hands of ordinary people is very small. Even if it is collectively planted like the farmers' association, after the tax is finally paid, the remaining food and the wealth that can be accumulated every year are extremely limited.

The only way to quickly accumulate wealth and live a good life is to obtain more land.

And obtain the fields...

Wang Jian gritted his teeth.

He returned to his station, informed the guards he accompanied and summoned people.

They are going to attack the city.

This was the order of Wang Yu, and they needed to attack the city of Wei.

The purpose is to seize food.

Generally speaking, the grain in the field is harvested during the end of September and early October.

But this year, Zhao, Han and Wei did not have the opportunity to harvest food at this point in time.

Because the Qin people came here.

Although Zhao, Han and Wei have poor mobilization abilities, they are not stupid.

The Qin people came over. Even though they could not assemble troops nationwide and combine to resist, they would definitely do it in the small city to pull up a group of people to make preliminary resistance and defend the city.

Since people are to be brought up, the labor force for harvesting food must be insufficient.

At this time, the food is ripe.

Then, at this time, the first strategic purpose of the Qin people became to seize food.

There is only so much food. As long as the other party cannot harvest it, they will eat less food and make a lot of money on their own.

If you can harvest the food yourself first, then the other party will have no food, and the other party can eat more, which will reduce the logistical pressure, which can be said to be double the profit.

So the 30,000 army led by Meng Ao and the 20,000 reinforcements brought by Wang Yu were dismantled into a thousand troops, and half of them rushed to various places to harass the city, while the other half began to take advantage of the other party being dragged to harvest food.

This process is a process of racing against time, and it is also a process of pulling, wiping away, and testing each other.

The team gathered quickly.

The soldiers of the Farmers Association were all trained by Wang Jian one by one. They were originally 1,300 husbands, not only fat, strong, at least strong, rosy, and extremely disciplined. Now, they have seen blood and rolled around in the millstone of life and death. They have seen the blood of the enemy and tasted the tears of their own people, so the entire team is different.

Wang Jian rode on the horse and looked at the soldiers carrying baggage in front of him. They were like long swords unsheathed, and their sharpness was blooming.

"Set out!" Wang Jian roared.

The Qin people followed Wang Jian's horse silently, walking step by step, and the team lengthened little by little, but the distance between people was always maintained at a similar length, neither slow nor fast, and as stable as a rock.

...

As the New Year comes, the people from Ba and Shu harvest the grain, and the merchants come out.

This is the harvest season, and everyone has enough food, so they start to think about something other than eating and drinking.

The peddler took the sword and walked around the village with the goods. At this time, even the most harsh Qin officials would not blame anything, nor would they ask for inspection of the peddlers and small merchants to check the verification and transmission of the peddlers.

Ju Zizhou learned from the peddler's appearance and bought a straw hat himself, made a simple kettle with thick bamboo, bought some small commodities, salt, sauce and other daily necessities, and started walking around the streets.

This time, Xu Qingcheng did what he said.

He did not follow Ju Zizhou, but stayed in Tu Qiu's mansion and played with a group of twin sisters who were newly close friends.

He was abnormal, but Ju Zizhou didn't know what was going on with him.

Ju Zizhou didn't go into it too deeply, but just started his own journey as a peddler.

The upper, middle and lower Sanke Village, the Xun Village, the You Village, Xiamo Village outside Sanke Village... After a while, the goods were sold and the payment was collected. Occasionally, I saw those who wanted to force violently, but most of them chose to be harmonious after Ju Zizhou showed off his iron sword and small crossbow.

In addition, there are some bandits in Badi.

This ghost place has many mountains and dense forests, and it is hard to hide. Most people cannot find it. So some Qin people who violated the law gathered together, hid in the deep mountains, and relied on robbing passers-by to make a living. However, most of them have some default rules, only taking a little toll, or asking for some food and salt to maintain their lives, and they dare not kill people easily.

Ju Zizhou met two groups of such people, and handed over some salt and fourteen cents, so the robber sat down with the fat sheep and ate.

During this period, Ju Zizhou inquired about their living conditions and asked about the laws they had violated.

Actually, those are all very small things.

Most of them are also people who are forced to survive.

In order to survive, I had no choice but to choose such a road that was not a road.

Some even thought about joining the Ba people in the mountains, but some of the seniors who did this were already treated by the Ba people as fat sheep delivered to the door, and sent them to lawsuits outside the mountains for coins.

So there was no one who defected to the Ba people again.

After leaving these robbers, Ju Zizhou slowly took out his pen and ink to record his experiences.

A very big, unfit-fitting child saw him and kept wandering around him, without talking or pulling, but only a little desire and curiosity appeared in his eyes.

Ju Zizhou exchanged a little malt sugar for the trust of the children, and gradually grasped some of the situation in the village.

Then we went to visit some widowed elderly people.

When you meet a colleague who is carrying goods, you can sit down and chat together to see how the other party has gained, and complain about the cold weather together.

Ju Zizhou never noticed that behind him was a man who was willing to hide his movements.
