Chapter VI Principles

"Wear this." Ju Zizhou untied the exquisite iron crossbow tied to his arm, put it on for Ying Zheng, and said, "You will send the gold to those rangers in person later."

"Hand-in-hand? Is this very important?" Ying Zheng tried the small iron crossbow on his arm.

The trigger pulled, and the short iron arrow teared the air, making a scream, nailed to the dilapidated wooden door not far away.

"It seems..." Ying Zheng looked at the arrow: "It's much worse than ordinary crossbow arrows!"

Ju Zizhou nodded: "Close-defense is enough."

Ying Zheng put the strings back on his back, put down his wide sleeves to cover the small crossbow: "Do I have to send them money in person?"

"Of course!" Ju Zizhou said: "This is the establishment of a master-slave relationship between you and them. You must let them completely recognize the establishment of this relationship at this time. Then I will use the methods described in "Handan Investigation" to help you consolidate the relationship!"

Ying Zheng nodded.

When he came to the four rangers, Ying Zheng held the luxuriously decorated short sword in his hand and squatted down.

The four rangers looked at the sword in Ying Zheng's hand and were all a little scared.

But soon, they were no longer afraid.

Because Ying Zheng cut off the rope that bound his hands and feet for them.

"Zhao Renjing, pay homage to the little gentleman."

"Zhao Renwu, pay homage to the little gentleman."

"Zhao Ren Tongzhi, pay homage to the little gentleman."

"Cheng He, a native of Zhao, pay homage to the little gentleman."

The four rangers had a pretty good attitude. After getting up, they moved their hands and feet a little and bowed to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng raised his head and looked at the four rangers, his body trembled slightly: "Four, your husband must have something to do in the world. The bravest of the superiors achieve the affairs of the country and relieve the worries of the king; the bravest of the subordinates connect with the grace of others and eliminate the hatred of the people. Although the Zheng year is naive, he inherits the remnants of the King of Qin and continues to be a domineering tigers and wolfs, and wants to be successful in the world. Can the four of you be willing to follow Zheng, join the Qin State, and share wealth and honor?"

The four of them did not hesitate and bowed together: "I wish to follow the gentleman."

Ying Zheng took a deep breath, waved over the gold in Ju Zizhou's hand, pressed his left hand on the iron crossbow position on his right arm, walked to the four rangers, and handed a golden cake to Ranger Jing with his own hands: "My husband has entrusted me, Zheng is unable to repay the righteousness, but Yue is offering a pound of gold to thank him!"

When Ranger Jing saw the gold, he was stunned and subconsciously looked at Ju Zizhou.

Ju Zizhou curled his lips, looking helpless and disdainful.

Jing then took the golden cake handed over by Ying Zheng with both hands, turned over and knelt down, leaned on all sides, and knocked his forehead on the ground, making a muffled sound: "I hope to die for the Lord!"

When the other three rangers saw that Jing Zhen got a pound of gold, they all bowed to worship.

"I hope to die for the Lord!"

Ying Zheng distributed gold one by one, looked at the four rangers crawling in front of him, and unconsciously left the small crossbow position with his palms.

His body trembled.

His eyes were bright.

He breathed heavily.

Looking at the four people kneeling at his feet, Ying Zheng felt a feeling that he had never felt before.

So at ease and so calm, but it is like the roaring waves of rivers, with blood pumping out from the heart, and the limbs and bones are warm.

That was an unprecedented experience.

Ying Zheng pursed his lips and took a deep breath: "Get up, you can go to the guard to get some food and water to make some repairs."

"No, thank you." The four of them stood up.

Ying Zheng turned around and pulled Ju Zizhou up and left. When he reached the door, he arranged for the guards to give the four subordinates simple food and water, and quickly returned to his room.

Back in the room, Ying Zheng covered his heart, drank a large bowl of water, took out three silk books from "Handan Investigation" and carefully smoothed the folds on the silk books.

"How do you feel?" Ju Zizhou asked with a smile.

"I have never felt so wonderful!" Ying Zheng drank another big bowl of water: "It turns out that everything in the world is so simple!"

Ying Zheng looked at Ju Zizhou and felt that power was actually not difficult to seize.

Although Ying Zheng believed in the truth of "production relations" mentioned by Ju Zizhou before, he actually always felt that Ju Zizhou's truth was the same as those of the Confucians in Zhao State. It sounded beautiful and very reasonable, but it could not be criticized in reality. A large part of it was fictional.

But now that he has conquered the four rangers, Ying Zheng completely believed what Ju Zizhou said - that is the truth that can be truly fall into reality and become a fact. It can be proven and can bring endless strength and sense of security to people!

What’s more important is that Ju Zizhou proved the authenticity of his remarks in "Handan Investigation".

"The lower-level rangers often live in difficult times. Although they have swords and force, swords and force cannot obtain the necessary living materials for them to survive, so they must work for the nobles and merchants. They need money, so they help, steal, rob, fight and kill, have force and ambitions, and struggle at the bottom." Ying Zheng read the words in "Handan Investigation".

"They are just like small merchants, down-and-out nobles, and farmers, who are the people we can fight for!" Ju Zizhou said with a smile: "And the way to fight for them..."

Ju Zizhou doesn’t mention the matter of slaves at this stage.

Ying Zheng held the silk book as if nothing had happened, faced Ju Zizhou, and scratched his right arm casually with his left hand: "Is the method different from fighting for the lower class ranger?"

"Of course it's different." Ju Zizhou said: "Because the problems we face are different."

"And..." Ju Zizhou was a little thirsty, drank a bowl of water, and continued: "And the causes of the formation of contradictions, the subjects of contradictions, and the economic foundations of contradictions are different."

"I don't understand very much." Ying Zheng lowered his arms a little.

"Take it slow." Ju Zizhou smiled: "But the overall idea needs to be known in advance."

"What's the idea?" Ying Zheng asked.

Ju Zizhou stretched out his left hand and formed a fist with five fingers: "There are many people and the power is great!"

Then, he had his right hand deep in his right hand and his fingers formed a sword: "Welcome the majority and attack a small group, and use the more to bully the few, you will be invincible!"

Ying Zheng stared at Ju Zizhou, and after a while, he laughed: "In the Battle of Changping, Wu'an Jun Gongsun Qi defeated the more with fewer."

"The Qin army is the majority!" Ju Zizhou stared at Ying Zheng's eyes and paused word by word: "There is a system in which military merits are exchanged for titles."

"Whoever kills the enemy at the fortitude of the enemy can get titles, and those who get titles can get land, power, and wealth."

"So, if the Qin people win, from the generals to the common men, they can benefit!"

"The Qin people fought for the Qin King, and also fought for themselves."

"The State of Zhao is bitter and cold. The same land receives much less grain than that of the State of Qin. The land is mostly concentrated in the hands of nobles and merchants. Ordinary people don't have much land and what they ask for all day is just enough to eat."

"The battle between Zhao and Qin was to defend the land of the nobles and merchants. The reward for the victory of Zhao was only to the generals and nobles. If they were defeated, they would not be worse even if they lost the land that was not enough to fill people."

"No matter whether you defeat the battle, Zhao soldier will have no gains or losses."

"Tiantu belongs to the nobles, and his life belongs to his own."

"The Zhao people were not willing to fight for King Zhao at all... There was a conflict between them, and the conflict between Qin and Zhao was the conflict between Qin and Zhao nobles, not the conflict between Qin and Zhao people."

"Now, Ying Zheng, tell me, there were many Qin people or Zhao people in the Battle of Changping?" Ju Zizhou asked.

Ying Zheng thought for a while, lowered his right hand, placed the silk book on the table, sat in front of Ju Zizhou, and bowed his head and asked, "Who is the master of our lineage?"
