Chapter 334: The death of Qin

In today's era, time seems to pass faster than later generations. Zhao Kuo left Xianyang and went to various places to check the situation. It took several months for this long journey alone... Since seeing the amazing destructive power of the locust plague, Zhao Kuo completely handed over the cultivation of crops to Zhan, and he was working hard to study these disasters. All countries have records of the disaster situation. In the local area, the elderly can also tell the disaster situation in the past.

Zhao Kuo's research is not only limited to the issue of locust plagues, but also droughts, floods, earthquakes, or fires caused by human factors. In this era, there has been no complete study of these disasters. Everything that cannot be explained and resisted is considered to be the cause of gods. Floods occur because of Hebo's anger, and earthquakes occur because of the turn of the earth dragon. Droughts and locust plagues belong to Tianzu, and praying for rain also seems to belong to Hebo.

They never thought about why these disasters occurred and how to resist them. The same disaster occurred in different places, and it is likely that different results were caused by the different people in charge. Because there was no unified means, some places might choose to go to sacrifice, some places might go to disaster relief, and some places would ask for help. After visiting various places and conducting a lot of investigations, Zhao Kuo finally wrote a popular science knowledge on dealing with disasters based on the knowledge he learned in later generations.

Many of the response methods in later generations are not applicable to the current era, so Zhao Kuo needs to be combined. In Zhao Kuo's view, these things are really nothing. When wet the cloth with water during fires, try to lie down and move forward. Don't panic when the earth moves. Droughts and floods are not caused by the anger of gods. They can be used to dig canals to resist. This includes the causes of disasters, national resistance methods, and personal knowledge of rescue.

When Zhao Kuo returned home, her mother was still waiting for him as usual. Zhao's mother had a back of her ears. She gradually couldn't hear clearly and her eyes were very bad. She often recognized the wrong person. She was indeed not young anymore, but she could always recognize Zhao Kuo. When she saw Zhao Kuo come back, she would even ask worriedly: "Is the war still going well?" She thought that Zhao Kuo was going out just to fight. She didn't understand how Zhao Kuo explained, but in the end, Zhao Kuo simply didn't explain.

After Shan saw his father, he was in his arms and never came down again. Zhao Kuo happily hugged his daughter. Yi was fine. Yi was busy with family affairs over the years, but occasionally he would think of his parents far away in Handan. Xu Li had not written to them for a while, and he didn't know how his situation was. The family was still very lively. Every time Zhao Kuo returned home, he was so happy. In the happiness, he didn't even beat Zhao Kang again.

The main reason is that he couldn't find the stick, so he spared Zhao Kang for a while. As for Ying Zheng, he hurried to the house after learning that his father had returned. Yi frowned and said unhappily: "You come when your father comes back, you don't come when your father is not here. Do you only care about your father and don't care about us?" Ying Zheng lowered his head and said helplessly: "Mother, I have a lot of things to deal with. Recently, the Prime Minister gave me some of the things to do. I really don't have much time."

Yi was still a little angry, but Zhao Kuo understood Ying Zheng very much. He just said, "Zheng is really busy these days. Now that he is back, he probably has something important to ask me. Don't be angry. As the king, what he has to do will get better and better. How can he blame him?" Zheng also walked to Yi with a smile and said, "Yes, mother, whenever I have free time, did I come to visit you at home? How can you be angry with me?"

The family reunited again, and Zhao Kuo hugged Shan. Shan kept complaining to her father. From her mother to Zhao Kang, she didn't pull any of them. For example, her mother beat her, her brother made her angry, and her brother hid the stick at home. Zhao Kuo couldn't help laughing when she heard her telling these secrets. The taste of home was indeed very enjoyable. While sitting together and eating, Zhao Kuo heard about Dan.

"Dan is back?"

"Yes, I've also gone to send him off." Zhao Kang said everything he saw. Zhao Kuo listened and looked at Zhao Zheng. Zhao Zheng then said, "Qin State no longer forms an alliance with Yan State, so he sent him back." Zhao Kuo did not ask much, nodded, and said, "That's a good thing. When he returned to Yan State, he could stay with his parents... By the way, Zheng, if there is an envoy from Yan State to see you, don't meet them..."

"Why is this?"

"Because Yan State often sends assassins to commit crimes, I have encountered assassins from Yan State. You must remember not to let go of your guard."

Zhao Zheng nodded thoughtfully before saying, "I understand." Of course, Zhao Kuo was worried that Jing Ke's incident would happen again. After chatting with Zhao Zheng for a long time, he said what he had done in the past few days. Zhao Kuo said tiredly: "I went to sort out the disaster situation in various places and sorted out some solutions to the disaster. When I finished writing it, you can take a look. If you think it is OK, you may be able to promote it in China..."

The King of Qin nodded. He came to Zhao Kuo because there was something wrong. But when there was a lot of people, it was not easy to talk about it. The father and son returned to the house. The King of Qin said seriously: "Father, I want to start the rule of power... I need you to support me." Zhao Kuo looked at him in surprise, looked at him for a moment, and then asked: "What do you want to do first after you ruled? What is the first thing you want to do?"

"After taking power, I...", the King of Qin was struggling for a moment, but could not answer.

"When you think about what to do after taking power, come to me..." Zhao Kuo waved his hand and cut off the topic directly. Ying Zheng had no choice. He had been thinking about how to take power for the past few days, but he had never thought about what to do when taking power. Ying Zheng suddenly realized some of his father's intentions. His father wanted to not think about fighting for power and find a way to prove his ability. In this way, can he achieve his goal?

It took Zhao Kuo a while to sort out the contents of the previous investigation. During this period, Han Fei and others also visited him several times. Zhao Kuo then discovered that the ministers in Xianyang have now become two major factions, following Lu Buwei and Ying Zheng respectively... Zhao Kuo was the only one who remained neutral among them, and even Han Fei stood on Lu Buwei's side.

Because Han Fei felt that Ying Zheng was still too young, and in many aspects, he still needed to grow.

Zhao Kuo has always hated this kind of power struggle. He is not a person who pursues power, so he has no interest in this confrontation in Xianyang. When he watched Ying Zheng grow up, Zhao Kuo knew very well that although Ying Zheng was very smart, he was definitely not as good as Lu Buwei in handling state affairs. However, taking power does not mean expelling Lu Buwei from the country, but just letting government affairs return to Ying Zheng and then Lu Buwei will do it. After all, he is still the prime minister of Qin.

Zhao Kuo ignored these things in the court, but instead accelerated his sorting. Finally, after spending several months, he finally completed many ways to deal with disasters. He gave these things to Ying Zheng. After the negotiations, Ying Zheng and Lu Buwei compiled these contents into the "Horse Costume Book" and became an important content in the Horse Costume Book, a disaster prevention chapter.

At this moment, the King of Qin proposed that he hoped to raise an army to attack Wei again.

Of course, Lu Buwei agreed to attack Wei. After a year of rest, Qin had the ability to continue attacking Wei, but Wei had not yet completed the rest. Moreover, Zhao improved its relationship with Qin. Even if he wanted to reinforce Wei, it was not as easy as before. Chu might help Wei. The King of Chu appointed Chunshen Jun as prime minister again and completely tore up the agreement with Qin.

Chunshenjun never forgot his strategy. Chunshenjun wanted to sanction Qin through the alliance of the princes and form a six-state alliance led by Chu. Previously, Wei Wuji led the coalition forces to prove that Chunshenjun's strategy was correct. Only when the countries united can they defeat Qin. A single country is definitely not a rival to Qin, which is also because Qin is full of talents.

Ma Fujun and Han Fei were in Qin, which made the Qin system constantly change. He no longer massacred the people and began to change his own farming and war system. Farming was no longer for war, but fighting was for farming. This made Qin's channels continue to increase, and cultivated farmland, encouraged farming, and improved domestic laws. These not only did not weaken the combat effectiveness of Qin, but instead made Qin more and more powerful.

Especially after a Wei man called Liao arrived in Qin, Qin also implemented a series of reforms in the military system, which greatly enhanced the combat power of Qin and greatly enhanced the logistics. In this case, only when the six countries united could it be possible to defeat the Qin people, or to resist the Qin people. A major event also happened in the Chu country. Jing Yang, the general who fought for the Chu country in the past few years, fell down.

Jingyang was shot and injured while fighting the Hu people in the south.

An arrow hit his chest. Then, his condition deteriorated rapidly. The position he was shot began to rot and pus continued to flow. Jingyang was in such pain and often fainted in pain. The King of Chu hurriedly sent Chunshen Jun to bring Jingyang back to the royal city for treatment. By the way, the State of Chu moved the capital again this year. The King of Chu moved the capital to Shouchun again, which also showed the King of Chu's determination to fight against Qin.

When Chunshenjun came to Jingyang and was about to take him back to the royal city, Jingyang was already dying and he could not even get up. The famous doctors brought by Chunshenjun quickly began to treat him, but they were still a little late. Faced with Jingyang who was so injured, they had no choice. Chunshenjun sat beside Jingyang, and he stayed here for several days without saying a word.

When Jing Yang opened his eyes with difficulty, he saw the haggard Chunshen Jun sitting in front of him.

"Mr. Chunshen...Xiang Yan...Xiang Yan..."

"What?"

"Use Xiang Yan as the general..." Jing Yang said with struggle. Chunshen Jun finally heard it clearly. When he nodded and held Jing Yang tightly, Jing Yang shouted in pain. He gritted his teeth and roared angrily: "Qin!! Destroy Qin!! Destroy Qin!!" He shouted three times, then spit out a mouthful of blood and died suddenly. Chunshen Jun looked at Jing Yang who was glaring and glaring, and felt that his whole body was burning and boiling.

He stretched out his hand and helped Jing Yang close his eyes, and he said, "Vei!"

When Qin attacked the royal city of Chu, it destroyed the royal tomb of Chu, where many nobles were buried, including Jingyang's ancestors... After Jingyang passed away, Chu immediately ordered Xiang Yan to be a general. However, Xiang Yan had never commanded the war alone, and his greatest record was also achieved when suppressing the rebellion, which made the King of Chu very distressed. At the same time, he was also worried that Qin would take the opportunity to attack Chu, so he ordered Chunshen Jun to implement a joint strategy immediately.

Chunshen Jun's envoy rushed to Wei, Han, Zhao, Qi, and even Yan. Of course, the treatment these envoys received in different countries was also different. Qin has been spending a lot of money to buy important officials from various countries over the years. Although it was not very smooth, it also gained some. In Qi, the envoys of Chu finally saw that the Prime Minister of Qi was victorious, and the envoys of Chu seemed very confident.

Because all countries know about the person who wins later. As long as there is enough money, wins later can do anything.

This time, the envoy of Chu State happened to bring a lot of gifts.

Hou Sheng frowned and looked at the envoy of Chu, and asked, "What are you trying to do when you come to Qi?" The envoy of Chu did not say the purpose, but instead said the gift he brought. Then he smiled and said, "I want all countries to unite to attack Qin." Hou Sheng shook his head and said, "This is not possible."

"Is it because of insufficient money? If you feel that it is not enough, Chu State can give you more..."

Hou Sheng interrupted him angrily, and he asked, "Who do you think of me? Not long ago, Qin had just sent someone to send me a gift, asking Qi and Qin to maintain a three-year alliance. I took his money and agreed to him. Therefore, no matter how much money you give me, I will not agree. If you want to form an alliance, you can come to me again in three years, and it must be faster than the Qin people."

The envoy of Chu State was a little angry, and he said, "You are trying to destroy Qi State!"
