In fact, historical materials from later generations also prove that the Kingdom of Bactrica once implemented a county system, called Eparchy and Hypachy. The county was divided into several post pavilions (Stathmos), each with its length [Note 9]. This system is exactly the same as the Qin system, and the Persian Empire, which had only provincial system, did not have this system at all, so it could only come from Qin or later Han.

Aristotle IV was not aware that his actions had only accelerated the historical process. When he arrived at Zhongyi Port with the ship, he was immediately shocked by the crowd inside and outside the dock. Standing on the deck of the sea boat, his eyes were filled with trembling heads, and there was no blank space at all. The crowd was surging towards the dock, and then was blocked by soldiers near the dock.

"The gods are above!" Not only Aristotle IV, but his followers Porus and others couldn't help but shout out the gods from their hearts. They had never seen so many people gather together, and even the Olympic Games at the foot of Mount Olympus, there were not so many people. Little did they know that since ancient times, the population of the East was twice that of the West, especially East and South Asia.

The fundamental reason why countless people of Zhao lived here was because Qi State transported food. After that, the Zhao State, which had been through war for a long time, did not have so many boats and vehicles to transport food into the inland, so they could only let Zhao people arrive here and eat. In the early summer, when the people were famine, more and more hungry people came. However, Qi State's boats were not enough. The transportation of corn was intermittent, and the food was about to be cut off. Ten huge Chu State's sea boats suddenly arrived, and everyone was excited.

"Sima Xian paid a visit to the Chu envoy." Sima Xian, the general of the Zhongyi County, had been waiting on the dock for a long time. When he saw the Chu envoy who was following the boat, he unexpectedly bowed to the Chu envoy. Following him, the officials, soldiers, old, weak, women and children also paid great respects to the Chu envoy. "King of Chu, Daren, has countless living people, and I, the Zhao people, will never forget it."

"King Daren of Chu, there are countless living people, and I, the Zhao people, will never forget them." Sima Xian was overjoyed and burst into tears. Following him, the soldiers and hungry people shouted gratefully. Countless voices gathered like a burst of thunder, passing by the dock.

"Chu Zhao is a relative of the country. The Queen Mother of My City remembers her mother country every day and cannot sleep at night. How can you thank me?" Jin Yi went to Zhao with the boat as an envoy. He came to explore Zhao according to the order of the Zheng Dynasty. "The Zhao people fell to this point, and they were all given by the Qin people..."

During the three years of conquest, countless people died in Zhao State, and the cities south of the Kuaishui were burned to pieces when the Qin army retreated. Jin Yi mentioned the word "Qin people", and the hungry people kneeling beat their chests and stamped their feet. The man shouted to the sky, and the woman cried loudly.

"Please get up, General Sima." Zhao people hated Qin for being exposed, and there was no need for Jin Yi to continue talking.

"Thank you, the envoy of Chu." Although Sima Xian stood up, he still bowed to Jin Yi, "Please invite Envoy Zhao to enter the city."

The pier is still a distance from Zhongyi. Without the need for soldiers to open the road, the hungry people automatically make way. Following him, Aristotle IV and others on another sea boat also got off the boat and entered Zhongyi City together. As soon as the passengers on the sea boat left, the squirrel crane on the pier began to lift the corn from the sea boat. When the first pack of millet landed on the ground, the hungry people around squeezed into several feet. The people in front were holding a handful of silver coins and shouting earnestly: "General, General..."

It is one thing for the Three Kingdoms to transport grain to help hungry people, and it is another thing for how to allocate disaster relief grain in Zhao. However, the Chu envoy was in Zhongqi, and the sea boats were mostly Chu boat sailors. The generals looked at the silver coins and felt it was a bit hot.

"General, if you don't accept it..." A lieutenant beside him whispered. Receiving money has become a rule, and this money is not obtained by the general alone. There are all shares in Zhongyi City, from generals to grooms.

"Cache, I'll collect it." The general closed his eyes helplessly when he heard the sound. Before he finished speaking, the soldiers who had prepared long ago began to collect money in sacks. Handfuls of silver coins fell into sacks, and one bag filled them and then changed to another bag. While collecting the money, the person who paid the money was put into the dock, and the corn on the dock was allowed to be carried away.

"Please look..." The sailor on the sea boat could see clearly what happened on the dock, and soon the incident was reported to the captain.

"We are not easy to interfere in this matter of Zhao State." The captain was a graduate of the aviation school and was always warned not to interfere in other countries' internal affairs unless the boatman is in danger of his life. His answer made the boatman discouraged, and the grain he had worked hard to transport became the capital for Zhao people to make profits.

"Record this matter in the navigation log and report it to Yingdu after returning to the voyage." Fortunately, the captain added another sentence, which made everyone feel a little calmer.

What happened on the pier was unknown in Zhongyi City. Jin Yi was enjoying the courtesy banquet of Zhao people in the city and the city. Aristotle IV and Jebaga heard from the Sogdian merchants who came from Handan.

"The whole Zhao Ni was starving," said Hunting in Sogdian, as if worried that Zhao would hear it, and he spoke in a low voice. "Only the nobles and merchants have food and meat. They do not like food transported from abroad, because this will affect their profits."

Aristotle IV could not understand Sogdian, but someone was helping him translate. "Why?" he asked in confusion. "The Chuni newspaper said that the rescue of Zhao Ni was to make Zhao Ni resist Sparta Qin, and they did this..."

"Sir, the Zhao Ni nobles only like beautiful women, precious gems and glass, and fine wine. In the past, they needed gold, silver and silk to get all this. Now, because the Chu Ni sea boat connects Persia, we no longer traffic, so they can only exchange gold and silver for gold." Falihudao lived in Handan for many years, and his understanding of the Zhao nobles and the Zhao people was deeply rooted in the bones. They seemed to have a natural persistent pursuit of luxury and were willing to give everything for this luxury. But what he did not explain is that the luxury of the Chu nobles in the past was better than that of the Zhao nobles-Chunshenjun's disciples actually wore pearls that only the Zhao nobles had.

"If so, the citizens will no longer fight for this country." Aristotle IV whispered. But he soon realized that there were no Greek citizens under the Spartan-Qin system. He turned to ask the question he was facing: "When can we leave here?"

"It's OK tomorrow." Shi Lihuo arranged everything before the fleet arrived.

"Tomorrow cannot." Aristotle IV shook his head. He saw with his own eyes that the weapons and armor were loaded on the bottom of the sailboat, and he had to wait until all the food was unloaded before the weapons and armor were removed. However, he completely underestimated the efficiency of the pier. The next morning, ten Chu sailboats on the pier started to return, and more than 600 four-wheeled carriages were transporting the weapons and armor under the command of the Sogdians. There was no pile of food on the pier, as if everything except weapons and armor disappeared overnight.

"Just leave this, I hope you can rest all the way." Aristotle IV was surprised by the efficiency of the pier. Jin Yi's carriage stopped by the roadside, and he was about to rush to Handan.

"Thank you very much. I will report your country's kindness to the king of our country." Aristotle IV bowed politely. This kind of words was like the apology to King Chuni, and there was an indescribable contrary to his will, but now he could only express his gratitude in this way.

"Where are the knights under my feet?" Jin Yi saw that there were only some Sogdians wearing pointed leather hats behind Aristotle IV, and there were no white cavalrymen. "I heard that there were many thieves on the grassland, as if there were no knights..."

Jin Yi did not intend to say goodbye to Aristotle IV, but since he met him, he naturally asked. Aristotle IV was a little surprised that he cared about his cavalry and replied: "They have arrived in Yunzhong County first. I believe that with their company, no barbarians dared to offend our caravan."

"Don't go." Jin Yi bowed again, then got in the car and let Yushou drive west.

"The envoy Chuni cares about us very much." After Aristotle IV bowed, he suddenly had a strange premonition, feeling that something was waiting for him in the future. This feeling accompanied him into the clouds and met Dekeopolis.

"Maybe we have to do something." Regardless of whether the Chuni envoy's greetings were malicious or not, the barbarians on the grassland must be wary of it.

"Bachelor, we do not need to be afraid of any barbarian cavalry except the Sarks." Dikeopolis disagreed with Aristotle IV's concerns. The entire caravan was protected by more than 800 Baktrian cavalry. Although they were no longer the Sogdian horses, but the most common ponies in East Asia, he still believed that no grassland barbarians were his opponents.

Dekeopoli's promise did not reassure Aristotle IV. He always remembered what the East Asian military art said, "The army should not hate deceit." But Dekeopoli's next sentence made him worry and could only keep it firmly in his heart.

"The people of Sogdia will definitely make fun of us. When we came, we were already laughed at by them." Dikeopoli whispered. After crossing the Sir River, the highly nervous Greek cavalry made a lot of jokes, and even shot and killed their own people who had urinated at night.

"Then...well." Aristotle IV reluctantly agreed to his opinion. "I hope the gods will bless us."

"In such a faraway place, maybe the gods couldn't hear our prayers." Dekeopoli smiled badly. He then said another thing, "Bachelor, I think we overlooked an important thing. The general here told me that the Chunis also had a kind of armor for war horses, which they did not sell to us..."

More than 600 four-wheeled carriages were parked next to the road out of the frontier. Dikeopoli talked about the war horse mail. The war horses riding by the partner cavalry were either covered with leather armor or had only bronze breastplates, which could only be considered half-equipped cavalry. When he passed by the land, he saw the full-equipped cavalry in Li Mu's army wearing mail, which he had never seen before.

As a cavalry general, Dikaiopoli naturally paid attention to this kind of equipment that he had never seen before, and ignored the figures of people who were constantly peeping around the caravan. These people even reached into the carriage carriage without paying attention until they were discovered and drunk. This was just a drink. As a border county, Yunzhong had always been chaotic, and there was no obvious difference between the Zhao people and the Qin people in appearance.
