Chapter 10 The Boat
"Wuji, you can't betray Greece..."
After the afternoon debate, Wu Ji kept recalling this sentence in his mind. He felt that he had become Fusu, stabbing the beautiful concubine with a bloody sword, sad and cruel.
He disliked, but had no choice but to do anything about it. This was Qin State. Even if he was a student of Lord Bai Di, he could not move forward without talismans. At most, he could only go to a restaurant like he is now, and get half drunk, so as to temporarily forget his identity and the troubles brought by this identity.
Xianyang was burned, and the restaurants could only spread out along the Wei River. Every restaurant was full. Just as Wu Ji was about to let Yushou drive back, a voice stopped him, "Brother Ziji..."
A military car was parked several feet away. The car was a Qin army wearing a crown and a shishang coat. The appearance was very familiar, but Wu Ji couldn't think of who this person was. The car finally approached and said several feet across: "After farewell to Yingdu, do you forget Xia Yang?"
"You, how could you be..." Wu Ji looked at Xia Yang in this outfit and couldn't accept it for a moment. He remembered that Xia Yang was a Korean businessman, so why did this become the leader of the Qin army again?
"It's hard to say anything, but the flowing water has not changed. I still remember the overseas scenery that Zi Ji mentioned in the past. Please come to the mansion to talk about it." When I was in Yingdu, Xia Yang, a famous figure in Yingdu, recognized that half of the friendship with Wu Ji was because the order was half of the curiosity.
He was an old friend and did not want to return to the palace, and Wu Ji did not refuse and asked his hand to follow Xia Yang's car. Xia Yang's mansion was in Weibei and Xianyang was in a fire, but the wind was from the southeast, so there were still a few houses remaining in the southeast corner, and Xia Yang's mansion was here. Wu Ji felt more and more strange. Dongcheng was the residence of the nobles of Qin. Even if a Korean businessman like Xia Yang had made military achievements, he should not live in such a place. When he entered the house, his family priest called him "right minister". This was the eleventh-class title of Qin. Could it be that Xia Yang killed dozens of Chu soldiers?
With doubts, the host and guest started drinking at the table. Wu Ji said, "I don't know what the leader of the Right Sang said is hard to describe..."
It is hard to say anything, not to be polite, but to say it is really hard to say something. Zhao Zheng returned to the army and immediately gave the title of Jing Hua as the chief of the Siche, Qi Qian was granted the title of Dazhao, and he was granted the title of Right Secretary. Siche Shuchang was given the title of 17th grade, and he was the Marquis of Guannei after passing Dazhao, which was not uncommon. However, Jing Hua did save Zhao Zheng and Daqin, and such a reward was not an exaggeration.
Xia Yang happened to meet and was extremely lucky to have a Youshu Chang. However, there were luck and misfortunes. When he returned to his mansion, he only saw a scorched earth. His wife and daughter died of death, and they thought they had been burned to death.
"The Jing people were tyrannical, and they set fire to the city and killed a huge number of common people. Xia Yang will destroy the Jing Kingdom in this life." With a crying voice, Xia Yang said gritting his teeth.
"I heard that the fire was instigated by the rioters of the Mo family..." Wu Ji advised him unconsciously.
"Da Miracle! When the Mohist family and the enemy were burned, Xianyang had been burning for a day and a night. My wife, my daughter..." Xia Yang's forehead bulged and he looked at Wu Ji, as if Wu Ji had turned into a fire-making Hou Ji.
I just argued with my teacher and was happy to meet my former friend Yingdu in the past, but I didn't expect that this old friend who had criticized Qin had become irrational hatred of Chu because of his hatred. He was speechless and had to drink silently.
Most of the wines in the pre-Qin period were glutinous millet or fruit wine. After the wine was cooked, the wine was mixed with the lees, and the wine was turbid and thick, and the fine rice flour and empty grain crust floated on the liquid surface, light white like ants and maggots. Such wine tasted badly and was not smooth, so it was necessary to filter the wine.
The poem says: "There is plenty of wood cut, and the vegetation wine has its own flavor." The vegetation is a bamboo basket for filtering wine. This is in the north, in the south, especially in the Chu State. The vegetation is not used for filtering wine, but for buds. There are thorns on both sides of the vegetation, and these burrs can stick to the lees. The leaves themselves have a special aroma. After filtering, the wine also brings this aroma. What you should drink is this lemongrass wine.
The same lemongrass wine is poured into Xiong Jing's wine, which is the newly picked buds and the newly brewed sake.
Five times, three wines are made. If you have something to drink, you are said to drink it. If you have nothing to drink, you are said to drink it. If you have something to drink it, you are said to drink it after sacrifice. Since it is sake, you should brew it in winter and summer, and make it into wine with three levels. However, the people of Chu who could not wait to brew the wine in less than three months. After shrinking (filtering) the wine, they hurried to worship the ancestors to inform the ancestors that their descendants had regained the old Ying and could use the buds to filter the wine.
"It's great!" After Yijue's sake drink, Xiong Jing shouted. It was not because the sake drink was delicious, but because he was going to be an adult at the end of the year, and he would get married after the championship. Now in the Chu Palace, there are people who are guarding against him as if they were thieves, and they can't do anything with Mi Xuan.
The word "shuang" means that a person has a fire on his left and right armpits, which means it is clear, and another meaning is corruption and mistakes. The ministers do not know why the king said "shuang", but the king said "shuang" means "shuang". The ministers in the Yan Dynasty agreed, and they all shouted "shuang".
"The great Chu was magnificent, and the Qin army was defeated, and the world was shocked. This is the wise nature of the king." Zhen Yinzi did not give in without permission. "In the world today, Chu is strong and Qin is weak. I think the king should be the emperor, so..."
After all, he was a literati and a royal party. His son Moba failed to win Xiong Jing as the emperor. When Naojiu and others thought of refuting, Xiong Jing said: "Impossible! The mastery of Xianyang was a craftsman, a craftsman, and a cannon soldier. He defeated the Qin army to fight against the clans, the honorary soldiers and the courage of the armored soldiers. Why did he proclaim himself emperor?"
Zi Mo flattered her feet and blushed for a moment. Zhao Shu, who didn't want him to be too embarrassed, made a statement, "I heard that the sages live in vain and do nothing, do nothing but start, do nothing but hold on, succeed and do nothing, and the king is the sage king."
Xiong Jing was moved and felt relieved when Zhaoshu said it. He still refused to accept it, and bowed respectfully to Song Yu and Kong Qian, saying, "This is the master of the Taifu."
All the flatteries moved to Song Yu and Kong Qian, and they couldn't help laughing. For a moment, the ministers all praised the title as the Grand Tutor Shou, and the two of them laughed so hard that they couldn't stop.
It is normal to pat each other at the table, but it will be annoying when patting. Besides, it is far from the time to celebrate the achievements, and the Qin army in Guanzhong is still gathering. Li Xin's 400,000 people are eyeing him outside the city, and Wang Jian attacks Handan day and night. However, the Chu allies, Qi, the State of Wei, is reliable, but the 100,000 troops have been exhausted. There is also Xiang Yan. Xiang Yan died, and there are few commanders who are the only ones. After that, he can only fight against pheasants, and cunning can hold on to the scene.
The banquet was full of joy, but after the banquet was distant, it was deserted. The military meeting was held in the Yan Dynasty, and the main thing to discuss this time was to go westward.
"...To consider it now, we should go up the Han River before September." Li Qi was not surprised by favor and disgrace, and there was always bloodshot in his eyes. "After September, there was less Han River, and Guanzhong harvested grain again. If the king cut out Handan, he would attack me."
"Envoy Zhao cried several times and asked our army to rescue Zhao." Jin Yi was already the Dazai, and Lian Yu would cry to him every time.
"The State of Zhao is beyond help." Naojiu had no choice but to discuss this issue with Li Qi many times. Once the Chu army rescued Zhao, the Qin army in Guanzhong would pounce on him. Not only did he attack Chu, but he would also attack Wei. "Only, he could use boats to transport the King of Zhao and the people of Zhao to Yingdu."
"The boats are insufficient." The transportation department E Zhuo reminded. "There are 400,000 military and civilians in Handan..."
The Yingdu Handan is thousands of miles apart, so it is impossible to transport directly. Thinking of the past transporting grain from Ao Cang, Xiong Jing said, "Can you transport it to Qi first and then to Yingdu?"
"I learned that the people of Qi had been in contact with Qin." Don't let me say. "Although the Qin envoy Wang Ao was expelled from Linzi, he had not left Qi."
"The State of Zhao is about to be destroyed, and his lips are gone, why are the people of Qi like this?" Xiong Jing said unhappily. If Qi's deception and bribery of Qin was worried that Chu would dominate the country after the war, then Qin was defeated once and was still the most powerful country in the world. He couldn't understand why the people of Qi still had to stand on the side of Qin.
"The king doesn't know anything, and the people of Qi are afraid of Qin." Don't tell me. "Now Qin is still the dominant king of the world. Zhao is about to perish, and Qi is even more afraid of Qin. The people of Zhao pass through Qi, and they are both angry and asked for crimes by Qin, so they must not listen. If the king does not believe, you can give it a try."
"What should I do?" Xiong Jing was not responsible for finding solutions, he was only responsible for pointing out what problems.
Several ministers looked at each other and bowed, "After saving Handan, you can only transport people once. If you transport them again after one, people will be in chaos."
Ao Cang can transport millet in batches, but the premise for Ao Cang transport millet is that the Chu army has firmly defended Ao Cang. Handan is different. Once the transporter of Handan leaves the city, morale will plummet and even civil strife will occur. Xiong Jing understands this and asks: "If you only transport once, how many people can you transport them?"
"If Qi people take boats..." E Zhuo was interrupted by Xiong Jing as soon as he opened his mouth, and he said, "Qi people don't count."
"If there are no Qi people, only Chu and Wei countries..." E Zhuo looked to the upper left and said for a long time, "Now there are two oars in the middle of the wings, so there are more than 500 large wings vacant, which can transport 100,000 people; there are still 500 old-style warships, which can transport 30,000 people; if there are old Ying, Nanyang, which can transport grain on the spot, and there are still thousands of common people's boats, which can transport 50,000 people, which can transport 180,000 people."
"Only 180,000 people?" Xiong Jing only felt that 180,000 people were too small.
"No. Our army must send soldiers to meet the Zhao people. If there are any stern players on the boat, there may be 150,000 people on the boat." E Zhuo added.
Xiong Jing felt that 180,000 people were too few, and the actual number was even smaller. If one more person was transported, he would have more force to resist Qin in the future. E Zhuo knew this truth, and he immediately said: "If it could be delayed in October and the wind would rise to the northeast, the sea boat could also go up the river. If each sea boat transports four hundred people, it could transport more than 30,000 people."
E Zhuo actually counted the sea boats, and there were really no boats. He said again: "The Wei people had more than 700 boats, which might transport 40,000 people, and these are 220,000."
"Why don't the fishing boat count?" Xiong Jing remembered the fishing boat. He usually fished, but now he can transport people.
"Fishing boats are the things of Qi, and all boatmen are Qi people." E Zhuo said.
"If you transport people with fishing boats, how much can you transport them?" Xiong Jing asked. He just wanted to transport all the people in Handan City.
