Chapter 76: Inside the Palace of the King of Qin
"Mengao, where is Wang Jian?"
"The end is here!"
"General Wang Jian, General Meng'ao, order you two to lead 100,000 battle armor-piercing soldiers and 100,000 golden fire cavalry to build a military camp outside Xianyang City and station on the spot."
"Gu will ask Wei Ran, the prime minister, to allocate January rations for you first, and then Gu will solve the food and grass problem for you after a month."
Ying Ji felt a bit of a headache at this time. When he just got these two high-level legion summoning tiger charms, Ying Ji felt that he was lucky.
However, at this time, Ying Ji realized that although he felt his blood boil with 200,000 heavy soldiers in his hand, Ying Ji sadly found out that the 200,000 army had to eat. How to solve the problem of food and grass?
In the past, on the way back to Xianyang, Ying Ji led an army of 200,000 people and asked the county magistrate to distribute some food every time they passed through a county.
On the way back to Xianyang, there were so many counties that were barely able to meet the temporary food and grass needs of the 200,000 army.
But it is impossible for the people of Qin to bear the provisions of the 200,000 army endlessly!
Moreover, the people of Qin State near Xianyang have already suffered from the ruins of the Chu army over the years.
At this moment, the people in the vicinity of Xianyang did not mention the army of 200,000, that is to say, the army of 20,000 did not have enough energy to support him. Therefore, the issue of food and grass became a headache for Ying Ji at this moment.
And all the grains currently in Xianyang can only support all the troops of the Qin state today, and the grain needs of an additional 200,000 soldiers are simply a huge burden.
In fact, Ying Ji had another way in his mind, that is, to directly send a message to General Sima Cuo, who was sitting in the prosperous land of Bashu, to transfer grain and grass from the land of Bashu to Xianyang.
But this idea was rejected by Ying Ji as soon as it appeared. The land of Bashu was far from the center of Qin.
If you want to transport grain and grass from Bashu to Xianyang, you may not be able to quench your thirst.
Now it seems that the only way to solve the ten-day food and grass needs of the golden fire cavalry and the hundred thousand armor-piercing soldiers is to solve the ten days.
Qin is the largest warring state in the world, although its national strength has declined in the past few years, but the camel is bigger than a horse.
Qin State still has some wealth, so it shouldn't be a problem to allocate 200,000 troops from the treasury for a month.
"But this is not a long-term problem. It seems that the food issue can only be solved by the system."
Ying Ji said in his heart, Ying Ji doesn't believe that a system with supernatural powers can't even solve this basic food problem.
However, Ying Ji recently thought of a very pitiful question, which is how to explain the origins of the 100,000 Golden Fire Cavalry and the 100,000 Battle Armor Piercer to everyone?
Although the household registration system in the Warring States Period was not as good as that of the Ming Dynasty, the Qin State had also established a relatively advanced household registration system since the reform of Shang Yang, and there were no 200,000 soldiers at all.
If Ying Ji said that the 200,000 army was recruited by himself in the six kingdoms, he would probably arouse suspicion.
It is true that the Six Nations have been hostile to the Qin State all these years. If it is said that the 200,000 army is from the Six Nations, then the Qin people will not accept it anyway.
At least for the time being, the Golden Fire Cavalry and the Hundred Battles Armor Piercing Corps, a total of 200,000 soldiers, will not be accepted near the capital of Qin.
"Maybe, maybe we can make a fuss about the door of the plane..."
Ying Ji thought to himself.
"promise!"
The two of them clasped their fists together and said that they also understood the son's current arrangement. Now it seems that the Golden Fire Cavalry and the Hundred Battles Armor Piercing total of 200,000 soldiers are not only food and grass problems that need to be solved urgently.
Moreover, there is no way for an army of 200,000 to enter Xianyang, because it is impossible for Xianyang City to accommodate an army of 200,000.
Now it seems that camping outside Xianyang City is the only way to temporarily camp.
"Xiangguo, the golden fire cavalry and the 200,000-year-old armor-piercing soldiers will rely on Xiangguo for the food and grass for a month."
"Please rest assured, sir, although my country of Qin is in a difficult situation now, I can still get food and grass to support the 200,000 army for a month. You don't need to worry about it."
Wei Ran said that, as the prime minister of a country, he was confident that with the remaining treasury stockpiles in Qin, he could still allocate the January rations needed to support the 200,000 army.
"Okay, since that's the case, everyone will return to the Qin Palace!"
Ying Ji ordered and said, and immediately Ying Ji and his party, as well as Wei Ran and other civil and military officials, and the tens of thousands of Qin soldiers who were in charge of guarding at this moment, returned to Xianyang City.
Gongsun Zan's 3,000 white horses returned to the barracks with the rest of the tens of thousands of Qin soldiers, while Ying Ji and his party rode directly to the most central part of Xianyang City, the Qin Palace.
"Is this Mr. Ji?"
"Well, that's right, Young Master Ji was fond of playing when he was young, and he often played around in Xianyang City when he was a child. Many people in Xianyang have seen Young Master Ji, so he must be Master Ji!"
"Yeah, I didn't expect that the playful kid had grown into such a handsome boy!"
"And looking at the appearance of Ji Gongzi, he might really be a good king."
...
Along the way, countless people in Xianyang City came out of their homes in the streets and alleys of Xianyang City to look at Ying Ji and his group.
Now all the people of the Qin state are full of expectations for the return of Young Master Ying Ji, and they all hope that Young Master Ying Ji can return to the most prosperous state of Qin when he becomes the King of Qin.
Xianyang, as a famous city in the world, and the capital of Qin, the most powerful country in the world, was naturally incomparable when it was built, and it was not inferior to Yingdu of Chu, Linzi of Qi and Handan City of Zhao.
The streets on both sides are bright and spacious enough to accommodate ten people walking side by side, and the houses are neatly arranged.
The roads are all paved with bluestone, and there are ditches on both sides of the road that discharge sewage.
Under these reasonable constructions, Xianyang City is also clean and stylish. It is not as full of garbage and dirt as people imagined, but it has a different flavor.
After a long period of walking, Ying Ji and the entourage of civil and military officials finally passed the outer city of Xianyang City, reached the inner city, and entered the Qin Palace directly after a while.
"Qin Palace, after four years, Gu is still back. From now on, Gu will be the master here, and the immortal glory of Da Qin will be written by Gu."
Ying Ji took the city wall with a height of more than 30 meters. There were only black clothes and black armor everywhere, holding strong crossbows and sharp swords. The guards were heavily guarded. and said firmly.
And behind Ying Ji, Wei Ran and the civil and military officials did not take Ying Ji's declaration seriously in their hearts. After all, where in the world can there be a dynasty that can exist for thousands of years, let alone establish an immortal dynasty.
Eternal dynasty, if each life is counted as a hundred years, then the ten thousand generations can be regarded as eternal existence, and the vicissitudes of life are nothing but the same.
But what everyone didn't expect is that Ying Ji's declaration today will really come true in the future, and most of the people here today have also witnessed the arrival of that day.
