When the King of Qin heard about what happened in Yan State, he was a little confused.

Yan State has long been invaded by the Hu people outside Liaodong. Outside Liaodong, there are several relatively ancient ethnic groups, including Donghu, which is a very powerful nomadic tribe. They use the Altai language family. Some historians believe that Donghu is the "tonggus" in the Altai language family, which is the transliteration of Tungus. Later unearthed data shows that Donghu may also be engaged in farming, semi-cultivation and semi-grazing. They are in the east of the Huns and are powerful.

The conflicts and exchanges with Zhao and Yan were the most frequent, and there were trade exchanges.

There is Feng in the west, and Feng in the east... Well, everyone probably remembers the Dongfeng nation... Later, the Feng tribe merged with Feng tribe, which was called the Bo people. They were also an ancient ethnic group in Liaodong. Unlike the other Hu people, they were farming people, not nomadic people, and the land was relatively fertile. There was also Sushen, one of the ancestors of modern Manchu people and other ethnic groups. During the reign of King Wu of Zhou, they paid tribute to the stone silhouettes. The Zhou people were very happy and thought it was a great achievement.

And he used the tribute from Sushen as an important proof of his martial arts.

The Zhou people said happily: "Su Shen, Yan, Bo, and I am the land of the north." Su Shen has since become one of the ancient Chinese nations, and the academic definition is one of the ancient Northeastern ethnic groups... They probably made a living by fishing and hunting, neither nomadic nor farming... Yan State had been fighting against the Hu people outside Liaodong for a long time. During the period when Lifu was the prime minister, Lifu successfully established counties and counties in various parts of Liaodong, spreading the sphere of influence of Yan State to the entire Northeastern region.

At the same time, some Donghu people, some of the people of Hao, and other Hu people of all sizes, became the people of Yan State and obeyed the rule of the King of Yan. Li Fu spent his whole life thinking of pacifying the place as soon as possible and completely controlling it. However, after Li Fu died in battle, the situation in Liaodong was a little uneasy. The subsequent generations of Yan Kings treated the Hu people living in the territory differently.

The officials and merchants were allowed to persecute them, and during the war they were recruited in large quantities, forcing them to continue to perform labor service and build the Great Wall... This led to the tendency of division in China becoming more and more serious. Later, when Ju Xin brought these people to fight against Qin, they surrendered without fighting, and even hoped to help Qin fight. However, their strength was not strong. If they were as powerful as the Xiongnu and the Donghu, they would not have been captured by Yan.

The King of Qin did not understand why there was such a rebellion in Yan State, and why were the rebellious Hu people so powerful? They could even defeat the army of Yan State?

Li Si sat in front of the King of Qin and said with a wry smile: "The State of Yan learned our system, which triggered this rebellion."

“What’s wrong with our system?”

Li Si smiled and said, "This is the thing. A few years ago, the Yan State implemented a military merit system and immediately recruited domestic soldiers to fight against Donghu, and obtained a lot of land..."

“Isn’t this a good thing?”

"The problem is that our military merit system can be implemented because we have enough land. We let the soldiers attack Wei State, and then distribute the fertile land of Wei State to the soldiers who have obtained... The soldiers will fight more actively, and Qin State will become stronger and stronger. The places attacked by Yan State are the most bitter and cold places, and are places with no value."

"After breaking through these places, in order to reward the army, the Yan State distributed the land cultivated by the Hu people in the country to the meritorious Yan people, and then distributed the bitter and cold land outside the country to the Hu people... Those places were not suitable for farming... The Hu people in Liaodong were furious and believed that they worked hard to fight for the Yan State, but in the end they did not receive any rewards. Instead, they were forced to leave their hometowns and rushed to the bitter and cold land. This was the King of Yan's kindness and repaid hatred..."

"So several Hu people gathered together and elected a warrior to serve as the leader and attack the King of Yan's army..."

"There should be quite a lot of soldiers from the King of Yan. How did the Hu people defeat them?"

"Haha, when fighting with the Hu people outside the Frontier, the King of Yan recruited these domestic Hu people many times. They had long fought with the Hu people outside the Frontier and were experienced. The local Yan people hid behind and sat down to enjoy their achievements. As a result, after the war started, the soldiers of the King of Yan were no match for the Hu people at all..." Li Si almost laughed. He really couldn't understand the operation of Yan State. It was normal to use the Hu people in China to fight.

Qin did the same. When Li Mu went to fight against the Huns, there were only a bunch of Hu knights under his command. After defeating the enemy, Qi was still considering these Hu people, changing their rewards from land to livestock, which greatly boosted their morale. What happened to the Yan people? Taking away the land of the meritorious soldiers and allowing them to migrate to the outside of the Great Wall, this action was of course a helpless move. After all, they had no land to achieve the rewards for military merits, but since that was the case, they had to bear the consequences themselves.

"They want to surrender to us?"

"Yes... Most of these Liaodong Hu people are engaged in farming and have a very bad relationship with the Donghu people outside the Great Wall. They have no allies. After defeating the army of Yan, they sent an envoy to ask Qin to send troops to help them..." Li Si said, and the King of Qin nodded. The Liaodong Hu people expressed their dissatisfaction with Yan for a long time, and even asked when Qin would come to Liaodong.

The King of Qin narrowed his eyes and asked, "What about you?"

"King, this is a good thing. You can get the entire Yan State without much effort..." Li Si agreed with the dispatch of troops. The King of Qin actually agreed in his heart. Yan State was almost destroyed. It would not be appropriate if he did not send troops. However, the King of Qin was also very distressed. Alas, this finally solved the problem of insufficient officials and swallowed Yan State. This problem of official affairs is about to emerge again. He originally wanted to delay for a few more years, so why were these people eager to die?

Do you want to hold Qin to death or what?

The King of Qin quickly asked his generals to come, and all the generals including Zhao Kuo rushed to the palace. In a mighty way, Zhao Kuo stood in the first place, but Liao, as the Grand Marshal, stood behind him. Then there were Wang Jian, Li Mu, Zhao Kang, Sima Shang, Meng Wu, Yang Duanhe, Qiang Sheng, Huan Qi... There were too many generals in Qin, and Zhao Kuo also noticed that there was another reigning general.

The man stood behind Liao, and it seemed that he had been promoted recently.

When the King of Qin talked about Yan State calmly, Zhao Kuo couldn't help but frown. When talking about Yan State, he would think of Yan Dan... After the King of Qin finished speaking, the generals seemed a little excited. Of course, the generals of Qin State wanted to obtain the position of throne. However, it was not easy to enthrone the throne. Guannei Hou's title is rare. Now Yan State is empty. If it can destroy Yan State, it would be a great contribution.

The King of Qin said, but his eyes looked at Zhao Kuo.

Zhao Kuo did not speak for a long time, and the King of Qin could only look at Liao. Liao looked at Zhao Kuo in front of him, thinking about it. He said: "King, Yan State is not a powerful enemy, but in this situation, if we do not occupy him, then Zhongshan Wang Jia, who is on the border of Yan State, will find a way to get Yan State, which is not good for Qin State. Please send a general to attack Yan State and Zhongshan State."

Liao said seriously: "The King of Yan is tyrannical and oppressing the people in the country. The people of Yan cannot bear his atrocities. They want to welcome the Qin army to save themselves. How can Qin sit still?" The King of Qin smiled and said: "You are right. I wonder which general is willing to go to war?"

The King of Qin still hoped that Zhao Kuo could speak. Zhao Kuo did not speak, and the other generals did not dare to speak. They did not dare to compete with Zhao Kuo. Zhao Kuo stroked his beard and said, "I am not in good health and cannot go to the battle in the near future. Please choose a suitable general to go to the battle." Zhao Kang couldn't help it when he heard Zhao Kuo's words. He stood up and said, "I am willing to go!"

"I'm willing to go!"

"I'm willing to go!!"

Since Zhao Kuo refused, the other generals were of course not polite. Zhao Kang, Sima Shang, Yang Duanhe, Meng Wu and other generals spoke almost at the same time. The King of Qin looked at these people and thought for a long time, and said, "General Wang Jian, this time, please come to the battle... Please Yang Duanhe, Huan Qi, Wang Ben... Meng Tian..." The King of Qin looked at the young general, thought for a moment, and also read his name, "...Li Xin and others went to the battle with you."

Wang Jian naturally did not refuse, and leaned over to the King of Qin and agreed.

The King of Qin asked Wang Jian to take charge of this matter and let them leave, leaving Zhao Kuo and Zhao Kang behind... Ying Zheng sat in front of Zhao Kuo and said with a smile: "Father, according to your thoughts, I have completed the appointment of the generals."

"What do I think?"

"Yes, you don't want to go to war, but you don't want to help General Wang Jian, and you want to give the young generals a chance..."

Sure enough, Ying Zheng still knew Zhao Kuo very well, and Zhao Kang was a little angry. He argued: "I am also a young general." The King of Qin didn't even look at him. He asked: "This war against Yan State may be different from other wars..."

As soon as Li Mu walked out of the palace, a young man stopped him and came to pay homage to him with his younger generation. Li Mu quickly replied. Wang Jian looked at him with a smile and said, "This is your fellow clan, the son of the prefect of the Northern Territory, Marquis Di Dao... Called as Xin, he admires you very much, and is afraid of offending you..." Li Mu looked at the young man in front of him. The young man was slender, firm in his face, and full of vitality.

Lao Ran had a son named Zong. Li Zong was a doctor in Wei State and was granted the title of Duan Gan. Duan Ganzi from Wei State was his descendant... that is, my descendant... Well, at the same time, he was also the common ancestor of the two sects of Longxi and Zhao Li clan. Therefore, Li Xin from Longxi and Li Mu from Zhao were considered to be the same clan. After they met, Wang Jian explained again that the young man had originally served as the county lieutenant.

Later, because he defeated the thieves in the county many times, defeating the more with fewer and his record was very exaggerated, he came to Xianyang and now he is under the command of Taiwei Liao.

But when his old friend left, he could still feel the cracks in his heart, as if a knife cut off a piece of flesh directly from his heart... The severe pain made Zhao Kuo unable to help but cover his chest, but he started crying like a child. The crying became louder and louder, and tears couldn't stop flowing down... Di raised three children, and his wife left when she gave birth to her third child, but he did not marry again.

He raised his three children alone and suffered a lot.

The two daughters are married, and the youngest son is still in the school room.

He always advised his son to speak carefully, not to speak nonsense, keep secrets, and study hard.

That day, Zhao Kuo hugged Di and cried for a long time.

That night, Zhao Kuo once again dreamed of Mafu Township.

He saw Ge and Di insulting each other, one scolding the old thief who no one wants, and the other scolding the ungrateful barbarian.

And he just looked at them quietly, his face full of tears.
