Chapter 528
During the New Year's Day carnival, not only princes and ministers were drinking and having fun, but all the restaurants and brothels in Xianyang City were filled with guests. The entire Xianyang City was shrouded in peace.
"Look, meteor, is it a meteor?"
At this time, in the night sky above Xianyang City, a huge meteor dragged its long tail across the sky above Xianyang City. This meteor was not a normal dark blue, but a fiery red, and you could even hear the sound of wind and thunder.
Almost all the people in Xianyang City were praying with their eyes closed. In their opinion, making wishes to the meteor must be in advance. Meteors are rare in a century, let alone this extra-large meteor.
People who have never seen the world think this is a meteor, but these ministers who have seen the world don’t think so. Seeing this thing passing through the sky, the ministers felt that the meat in their hands immediately became less fragrant.
"Is it a sign that Yinghuo guards the heart?"
"A sign of great evil, a sign of great evil?"
......
......
Li Chen's ears were all shouts from the ministers, "You say a great evil sign, and I say a great evil sign. Of course, the great evil sign they said is different from the big breast cover that Li Chen understood.
Ying Huo is talking about Mars. Because Mars is the reddest and brightest star in the sky, it is as bright as a flame, so it was called Ying Huo in ancient times.
The Yinghuo guards the heart refers to a kind of movement of astronomy, which means the celestial behavior of Mars moving towards the direction of the heart.
As the saying goes, everything has a cause and a result. In this era, everything that cannot be explained will be explained in feudal superstition. The phenomenon of Yinghuo and guarding the heart is naturally given a special meaning by this era.
Ying Huo Shuxin, a great sign that is called a great evil that can affect the fate and rule of the emperor by alchemists. According to the astrological holy scripture "Five Stars" record: "When fire meets the heart star, then Haosu Mayi will be in the south and north, and will be death."
Ying Huo Shuxin also indicates a series of signs such as "the master changes his politics and the lord takes away his merits." "The emperor loses his position." "The king and the general are in chaos." "The ministers make changes, plan their lords, and the princes take over."
Although Ying Huo Shouxin has so many explanations, in general, none of these explanations is good. Anyway, it is either someone rebels or the emperor Bintian.
It happened to be the New Year's Day, but I happened to encounter a celestial phenomenon like Ying Huo Shouxin. This is really God is causing trouble for Daqin.
The ministers all looked gloomy, thinking of the saying that "the emperor lost his position" and thinking about the current physical condition of the First Emperor, they couldn't help but worry.
"Ha ha."
"What is the sign of the heart of the martyr? It's almost the same to say that this is a sign of the hindsight of the horse. I believe in the theory of destiny, but I also believe in the words of man conquering nature."
"Since this star of Yingmao is accused of my Great Qin, I will destroy a country next year to help me liven up my Great Qin." Li Chen said proudly.
"The Marquis is right. What kind of celestial phenomena can compare to our swords and swords?"
"Destroy his country to help bring prosperity."
"Just destroy the Fusang who lived a good life." Wang Li and Li You, a strong young general, shouted with enthusiasm.
Li Chen's words made these young generals rush their blood rush into their minds. At this time, they seemed to feel the sound of their blood rushing, just like a big river.
"Old Meng, don't you tell me, my heart is also pounding?" Li Xin said with envious expressions of these energetic young men.
"What's the use of your heartbeat?"
"You can still ride a horse? Can you raise a sword?" Meng Yi hit the blow without any mercy.
"Old Meng, that's not what he said. Who hasn't been old yet? When I was young..." Li Xin raised his head and was about to brag.
"What happened to you when you were young?"
"Being chased by Xiang Yan, then we have to let General Wang save the scene?" Meng Yi teased.
"you......"
"you......"
Li Xin was so angry, but he couldn't say anything. There was no way, who made Meng Yi tell the truth?
Fortunately, with Li Chen here, the ministers were only feeling lost for a while and then pulled their thoughts back. Although they were worried, Li Chen's bold words made them relax a lot.
After New Year's Day, Xianyang City became even more prosperous.
During the Spring Festival, countries around the Qin Dynasty would send envoys to the Qin Dynasty to meet. Of course, the interview was only one of the purposes, and the other was to be able to trade with the Qin Dynasty.
The streets and alleys in Xianyang City are full of bustling small vendors. These days, there are more and more delegations from various countries coming to Xianyang, and their voices are getting better and better. In the eyes of these small vendors, these foreign messengers are all stupid people and more money. Slaughtering them is much more interesting than slaughtering fat sheep.
Xianyang City, Shimenshan Development Zone.
"Master Marshal, envoys from all over the world have been requesting to trade with us these days. How should we limit the transactions in the arms sector?" Liu Bang asked with a list of supplies in his hand.
Li Chen sat in the lobby with a big golden sword, and said without a moment of thinking: "As the same as in previous years, the bronzes of the arms exported to the armies. Didn't we seized a lot of brand new standard equipment from the Hu Hai rebels? These are all good goods, and the price is increased by 30% and sold to them."
"Yes." Liu Bang replied in a low voice.
"Wait." Suddenly, Li Chen seemed to think of himself saying that he would conquer Fusang next year, and an immature little idea immediately appeared in his head.
Li Chen looked up at Liu Bang and asked, "Do you have any idea of purchasing artillery in Fusang?"
Liu Bang was stunned at first, and then replied: "This is naturally available. No one is jealous of our artillery. The key is that we can't sell it to him. Isn't that something that can only be done by a fool?"
Li Chen's forehead trembled with a blue face and said, "Sell it to him?"
"What?"
"Master Marshal, aren't we going to conquer Fusang next year? Isn't it a capital enemy to sell it to them?" Liu Bang said in confusion.
"Sell them, remember to buy only one of their artillery, not their artillery shells. Just tell them that our Daqin had just endured the turmoil and the shells had been fired and they would not be produced until the spring next year. Let them pay for the cannons first, and we are giving them the production of the shells next year." Li Chen ordered.
"It's a second. A clever plan." Liu Bang was also a smart person and immediately understood Li Chen's plan.
Li Chen's strategy was a way that only Lao Yin criticized thought. Since Fusang will be conquered in the spring of next year, transportation of supplies is a difficult problem. There is no doubt that artillery is the heaviest and most difficult thing to transport among supplies.
