Excited, Xiong Jing's last words revealed what actions the Chu State would take next. On that day, Tian He sent the Chu State's plan to avoid the sea back to Jimo. He did not return to the country. Xiong Jing went south to Xiangyang, and he followed south to Xiangyang. Zhao Heng and Wei Jianyou looked at him differently, but he didn't care at all.

A few days ago, Xiong Jing urgently summoned court officials to Xiangyang for discussion. The court officials came, but there were very few ministers in counties and towns. The court officials of Chu were generals, including the new divisions. Previously, the Chu army had 49 and a half divisions, but now there were only twenty-five divisions and twelve brigades left. Many divisions and brigades were killed or isolated in the system, and the new court officials could only be re-appointed from counties and towns. At this time, they were still on the way to arrive. When Xiong Jing appeared, many trains on the court were empty.

"I have seen the king." The court is as generous as Yingdu. Although there is a vacant position, the voices of the court officials are still loud. They have heard some winds and did not congratulate Xiong Jing on how it is, but looked up at the king on the throne.

Before he could get a crown, his figure was still a little thin, but his beard was getting thicker and thicker. His eyes were bright and straight to the heart. As long as his lips were pursed slightly, he would make people feel shivered. At this moment, those eyes were looking around the audience. As soon as they met this kind of gaze that seemed to be substantial, the minister's head lowered. What they didn't see was that when they lowered their heads, a smile appeared on the corner of the king's mouth, and then quickly disappeared.

The court officials who were born in general were indeed fundamentally different from other court officials. Even a noble soldier in the Chu army would not nod under his own eyes. He would only raise his head and raise his chest. Xiong Jing thought so. Then he cleared his throat and said, "Daze was defeated again, Zuo Ao, Cheng Feng, Jing Gui died in battle, Xiang Chao stationed in Nanzheng with his remaining troops, and Chu State is in danger. Can you have any good plans?"

"Daze was defeated again?" The court suddenly started to stir. The news of Daze's defeat was not announced. Now they knew that the Chu army was defeated again in Nanzheng.

"King, the water battle is not good for me, and our army should not fight with the Qin people." Zhen Yin Zimo's voice.

The court officials knew in their hearts that the propaganda of the last water war was a victory, but in fact it was a failure. The Chu army had five and a half divisions, the Zhao army had 50,000, the Wei army had 15,000, the Ba army had 20,000, and the Yue army had 3,000, and the vast majority of them died in battle on the Daze.

"I have ordered Xiang Chao not to fight with the Qin people again." Xiong Jing responded. "However, the Qin people got the boat-making craftsman in the west, and knew that the officials of the Qin people had reported that the Qin people had demolished the palaces of Xianyang, and the Shaofu deployed more than a dozen warships every day. As of today, the Qin people still had 600,000 soldiers, and the re-employment could reach one million. Our army had only 25th divisions and 12th brigades. The divisions and brigades were not fully organized. There were only hundreds of troops left in the entire division, and the battles were less than 150,000 soldiers..."

"King, all the county and towns in the east are sent to the east. The old Ying, Fangcheng, and the three places in Hanzhong have more than two million soldiers, but only twelve brigades!" Xiang Que's voice, Xiang did not get any benefits in the west, and he has always had prejudice against the west.

"How could there be the 12th Brigade?" Cai Caichi also interjected. "The new division led many deaths and many soldiers were unwilling to fight."

"King, many soldiers are unwilling to fight because they have been practicing Qin law for a long time." Dou Ya, the commander of Xiao'an brigade, also stood in the court and represented the Dou family in the court. "Using Qin laws, soldiers can be promoted to their ranks when they are killed in war, but with Chu law, they can't be promoted to their ranks even if they beheaded in war, and they can't be robbed. Many soldiers do not seek promotions, but seek to rob their wealth."

"The king, who is a soldier who is a law of Chu, must prepare his own military armor and military rations, so those who are poor cannot join the army. This is the disadvantage of our Chu State." Another court official stepped forward and bowed to him. It was Chen Wan of Chen County. "As far as I know, many men and women in Yangxia in Chen County were not allowed to be soldier because they did not prepare military rations..."

"If there is no military ration, how can I be a soldier?" In addition to physical conditions, what kind of people can join the army has become an old topic of controversy in the court. Now that the military strength is insufficient, this issue has been raised again.

"What do you say that there is no food? It's just that the soldiers have no food, and there is food in the warehouses and counties." Chen Shi finished his work on the Daze. Chen County was trying to form another Chen Shi. However, according to the existing laws, some common people who are qualified and economically unqualified cannot join the army. "I think that since I have national debts, why don't they borrow food and fodder for soldiers who can fight? Although they are servants..."

"Swish!" Cai Chi sneered loudly. "Can a servant be a soldier? Can a servant be a soldier? Can a servant be a soldier?"

The servant can barely be considered a profession, and the servant is just a swearing thing. Xiong Jing coughed, and Cai Chi sneered quickly. Seeing that he did not speak, Chen Yi continued to say: "The soldiers in the west have been practicing Qin laws for a long time and do not like Chu laws, and many soldiers have lost their lives. The servants in the east have only wanted to be soldiers and longed for a battle, but they did not have military rations. The king said that the Chu army could fight less than 150,000 soldiers, so why are they stubborn about the distinction between possessing property and not having proprietary property? Proprietary people are also people of Chu..."

"Proletarian soldiers are not trustworthy." Naojiu was also on the train. Cai Chi looked down on the soldiers who were born in mediocre men, and he was trusting the soldiers who had no property. After all, proletarians had no perseverance. Zhu Ao fully agreed with this point that the new military system has always prohibited proletarians from joining the army, and the most important threshold is to bring their own military rations.

The soldiers in the army also had few objections to this. They were all possessed people, so they naturally did not like proletarians to become their comrades. Xiong Jing's attitude was that he had no attitude and let it go. However, he knew in his heart that the Romans had also stipulated that people with certain property could join the army and that weapons and rations needed to be prepared by soldiers themselves.

This regulation was abolished when Maluo was the consul, and the conscription system was replaced by the recruitment system. Proletarians could also join the army and gradually become their career for making a living. Once many things become professions, they would be bad, especially the "professional soldiers", such as the imperial guards of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Caesar was able to control the Senate later because the Roman army implemented the Marius reform, and the conscription system became the recruitment system. Soldiers took the military as their profession and could not bear the loss of losing this job. They could no longer love Rome and only loyal to the Senate like the Roman army before the military reform.

"If the person does not prepare military rations, he will not be allowed to join the army." Chen Yi, the court, was still trying to convince the court officials present, and Xiong Jing said something that made him speechless. "This is an old system and cannot be changed."

"King, I have no soldiers to fight for! Although this is an old system, it can be changed at the expedient time." The court officials who led the troops were not in the court, and now they are in a hurry to lack soldiers. Chen Yi thought that his proposal would be supported by others, and even Xiong Jing.

"I won't discuss this matter anymore." Xiong Jing didn't want to waste time on this matter. He turned back to the previous question: "What are the plans for you?"

"Reported to the king, there are strong enemies outside and no soldiers inside. If you can't win, you can only avoid them." The Lord of Luyang left without looking out.

"Go away?" The court once again caused trouble. This month, it was rumored that the Qin people were avoiding the Qin people. Some clans had already paid for the construction of sea boats. Unexpectedly, this matter was discussed so soon.

"That's right." The Lord of Luyang said loudly. "The king should know that the land of our Great Chu is definitely not the only place in the world. There is the East Inn in the east, there is the Mantis Bay, Dongsha Port, the South Inn in the middle, there is the Xia Island, the Lion City, and the South Inn in the south, there is the Nanyang Land.

The Qin people had thousands of warships, and our army had only hundreds of warships. If they were unable to win, the country would be destroyed. For the current plan, we should avoid the country and the subjects would be in the sea. The Qin people could fight water but not seas, and the sea was vast and there was nowhere to be found."

"The East Continent is far away, and I heard that there are only more than a hundred boats in the sea..." The words of the Lord of Luyang fell, and Lan She, who was not aware of this, spoke. "There are limited people who transport the transport industry, how can they avoid the migration to the sea?"

"I heard that Penglai, Fang Abbot, the three islands of Yingzhou are closer to Dongzhou, and are only more than 3,000 miles away from our Chu State. Warships, big boats, and fishing boats can arrive in forty days..."

"More than three thousand miles?" The court was amazed. Perhaps more than three thousand miles were a very close distance for the sea boat, but for those who were used to land, more than three thousand miles were from Longxi to Jiaodong Peninsula, or from Yingdu to the north to Yanmen Pass. At such a long distance, everyone subconsciously shook their heads.

"I heard that Penglai is an island of immortals. As for the island, why do you eat?" asked Shen Yinyi, the Duke of the County County of Qinxian.

"A few years ago, the sea boats came to this island." The king of Luyang said. "The mountains and monuments on the island are undulating, the waters are connected, the trees are deep, and there are few plains. There are tens of thousands of barbarians who plant rice to make a living, but there are no countries, and there are settlements. The words are not in line with our Chu State, but the people are very good. Please exchange women, grains and goods for our soldiers and iron tools. The sea boats then trade with them year by year in exchange for venison and deer skin..."

"The barbarians on the island grow rice for food?" Zhaoshu looked at Xiong Jing and Luyang Jun, and then asked. "If I move to this island, I will also cultivate acres of fields and plant rice for food?"

"Otherwise." Mr. Luyang felt that Zhaoshu had seen something. "At the beginning of the migration, you can plant the valley of Dongzhou and harvest it twice a year."

"The mountains and monuments on the island are undulating, the waters and marches are connected, and the trees are very deep, and there is little Pinglu." Zhaoshu read the four words "There is little Pinglu" and sighed: "How can you cultivate acres of land in such a place?"

"Is there any miasma on the island?" Qisi County Yin Guixia heard Zhaoshu talk about opening up the fields and asked quickly, and everyone's hearts were hanging.

"There is no miasma on the island." said the Lord of Luyang. "The barbarians also have fewer diseases, and the snow is snowing in winter."

The climate in places with snow is cold, so there will naturally be no miasma. When you hear that there is no miasma, the person hanging in your heart will let go.

"There are few plains there, and I think the water is all in the low places." Yu Yin Sun Yu was not there, but it was not that no one in the court knew how to farm. Gong Shikui, the younger brother of the King of Nanyue, knew how difficult it was to farm in the mountains of Yuedi.

"That's true." Luyang Jun nodded. The Haizhou Exploration Report also wrote this way. "Therefore, all the barbarians plant rice, not millet."

"Everyone all planted rice, how do you plant the valley in Dongzhou? If you plant it without harvest..." Zhaoshu continued to ask.

"So, when you move here, you should carry two years of food." The King of Luyang said, this is the restriction of migration.
