I’m The King

Chapter 1103: :East becomes West (96)

The loud noise of Kangping City shattered not only the hundreds of meters of Kangping City wall and the will to fight, but to a greater extent the hearts of all the powers in the two remaining countries on this continent. On, for a while, rumors were spread all over the sky, and the most talked about was that Gao Yuan, the king of the Great Han Kingdom, was blessed by the heavens. Therefore, when the Han army faced the strong defense of Kangping City, the heavens punished the sky and thundered It knocked down the city wall of Kangping City, allowing the Han army to break through the chain defense of hundreds of kilometers elaborately built by the Taiwei of Chu State in one fell swoop.

As soon as Kangping City was broken, the central link of the chain defense ceased to exist. The originally flexible chain defense instantly turned into a rigid dead snake, which was beaten everywhere. Nanye commanded by Meng Chong drove straight in every middle and long distance, Bai Yucheng On the left, Zhang Hongyu was on the right, smashing the hundreds of kilometers of defense line to pieces.Nearly 100,000 Chu army was defeated, and he retreated all the way back to the Daba Mountain Range.Using the steep form here, he regained his footing, but At this time, they have lost thousands of square kilometers of land.

The Kingdom of Chu lives in the south, with a territory of nearly a million square kilometers. When Qin was defeated in a row by Han and its vitality was severely injured, they seemed to become the only big country that could compete with Han, but this time it was in a head-on collision. , Still ended in the defeat of Chu State.The loss of thousands of square kilometers of land will not lose Chu State's vitality, but it will greatly affect Chu State's self-confidence.

That loud bang made the entire Chu country be totally disheartened. The hot weapon was used in war for the first time, and it played a huge role that even Gao Yuan didn't expect, not only in the war, but also above the spirit. .

When everyone hadn’t figured out the reason for the loud noise, more people attributed it to the punishment of the heavens, thinking that God was punishing the kingdom of Chu. This kind of perception made the whole kingdom of Chu not strong. Suddenly, his fighting spirit dropped by several grades, and the voice of negotiating peace with the Han country suddenly resounded throughout the Chu country.

The city of Chu is the capital city. Although it is the season of high autumn air and bright winds, the whole city is caught in a gloomy cloud. The whole city seems to be filled with a deadly atmosphere, not only the Chu State, but also the Chu State. People.

The details of the defeat of Kangping City have been spread throughout the city, and the discussion of Heavenly Punishment is spreading in every corner. Everyone speaks carefully, and everyone is thinking, if one day, when this kind of Heavenly Punishment falls in Yingcheng, What would be the result of that, is Yingcheng capable of resisting such a punishment?

"What kind of punishment!" Qu Zhong was angry and rushed. "The person who spreads this kind of remarks should be arrested and thrown into prison immediately, which will disturb the hearts of our army and the hearts of our people."

"How to catch it?" Huang Xie frowned. Although the two pillars of Chu State, one culture and one martial arts, were both startled by the loud noise of Kangping City, they were the first two sober people." I'm afraid that the ten people in Yingcheng Nine people in China are preaching about this matter. I am afraid that the discussion of Heavenly Punishment will not stop until the truth is found out."

If King Chuhuai is the most leisurely and wealthy king in the world, then Huang Xie and Qu Zhong are undoubtedly the two busiest people in Chu. When they meet an unreliable king, Chu is still He lives in the south and has maintained a deterrent against Qin for decades, making the originally powerful Qin country afraid to use troops against Chu, and he was forced to hold hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the border of Qin and Chu to prevent Chu from beating them. One target, relying on the two ministers, Wen and Wu.

Hearing what Huang Xie said, Qu Zhong sighed and sat down dejectedly.As Huang Xie said, before the court did not produce convincing evidence to prove that this was not a punishment, any excuse was pale. Persuasive.

"What is the king doing now?" Qu Zhong looked at Huang Xie. In the past few days, Qu Wan brought a group of generals back to Yingcheng from Daba Mountain. Qu Wan's spirit was almost completely destroyed in this battle. Although he was physically intact, he suffered a great psychological blow, and whether he could fight in battle in the future has become a question. There are other generals like him. These people have witnessed it in Kangping City. A brilliant explosion. Qu Zhong has been summoning these people for a few days, wanting to learn more details from their personal experience, and there is no time to pay attention to what King Chu Huai is doing.

"The king summoned the witch to practice in the palace!" Huang Xie spread his hands together and smiled bitterly. Chu is located in the south. Long ago, witches played a very important role in the country, but with the development of the times, these People have lost their previous status, but I am afraid that with this discussion of the punishment, these witches will take the opportunity to make waves.

Kneeling dumbfounded, "No, what kind of **** is this punishment? It is clear that Han has made some shocking weapons. The witchcraft will prevent Han from using such weapons?"

Huang Xie sighed, "The king finally mustered up a little ambition, but he was hit hard by this. He always needs some psychological comfort. Let's do it by witchcraft. In short, it is impossible to interfere with the government."

"You can't underestimate it. When I look back, I have to warn these witches not to make trouble, otherwise my knife will not recognize people." Qu Zhong said murderously.

"That's all, this is all a small section, what do you think of the arrogant discussions in the court?" Huang Xie asked.

"I'm afraid we can't hold back this time." Qu Zhong sighed. "We can only negotiate for a while, and then we will discuss it for a long time. I just don't understand why our ministers just can't see it. Han is another Qin. The country, and it is more aggressive than the previous Qin country. Yihe can stop the Han country from trying to plot our great Chu. Now the Qin country has been beaten to the ground by the Han country, and it has never challenged the Han country in a short time. Capital, if Gaoyuan’s next goal is not us, then I will write the name upside down."

"Da Chu has been accustomed to ease over the years. Everyone regards war as a daunting way. But what everyone doesn't understand is that sometimes you can avoid it if you don't want to avoid it. If you shrink your head and be a tortoise, you can only be beaten by someone. , Although the defeat of Kangping City this time frightened a part of it, I think it will eventually wake up some people. If Da Chu does not rise up, I am afraid that when Han has accumulated enough strength and wields his army again, Da Chu will face the danger of destroying the country." Huang Xie said.

"This time's failure will also be a good opportunity!" Qu Zhong Yinzi for a moment, "Master Shoufu, this time the two of us must cooperate sincerely and rectify Da Chu Chaogang."

"We have been working together very happily, I think, this time you want to lead the snake out of the cave, right?" Huang Xie suddenly laughed.

"Those who know me, Master Shoufu. If this battle led by the two of us fails, someone will inevitably jump out and attack our prestige by discussing peace, thereby enhancing their own strength. Then, let Let's sit on the sidelines and wait until they have almost jumped, and then they will encircle and annihilate them in one fell swoop. The great Chu needs to rise up. We don't need to relax and enjoy the disabled. We need people who are motivated and have a sense of crisis to enter the court."

"Then we must first get the support of the king."

"You and I work together, don't you know the king's temperament?" Qu Zhong laughed.

Huang Xie smiled and said: "Although the king is indulging in enjoyment and does not want to make progress, the king is not a confused king. He is smart in his heart. It is precisely because he knows that we are loyal and capable. People control state affairs, don't go too far."

"I understand that it is precisely because the king is such a person that I dare to do it boldly." Hehe with a smile. "Shoufu, you and I are both people who have lived the fate of life, this time I will fight with the king of Han." Gao Yuan, a rising star competing, is also an interesting thing."

"The younger generation is terrible!" Huang Xie shook his head and said: "This person has created an unprecedented miracle in just over ten years. Starting from a small soldier, he has created a huge country. Han, the fight against Qin State halted, and this time we were beaten up and down. I am afraid there will be no one to follow."

"It's not necessarily a good thing to be too sharp. If it's too strong, it will be easy to break. His sharpness will force the other two powers in the world to join hands to deal with him. Chu and Qin join forces. How long can the Han country last?"

"How easy is the combination of Chu and Qin?" Huang Xie sighed: "The two countries are pregnant with ghosts and want to cooperate sincerely. I'm afraid it is not an easy task. Taiwei, after the Han army hit Daba Mountain, they were also hesitant to move forward. Actually, I see. Here, although we have the danger of mountains and rivers in Daba Mountain, we can say that we are already a group of remnants and defeated generals. If the Han army attacked in a big way, they would have two hands if they could not defend, but why did they stop again?"

"They also have a lot of domestic problems!" Qu Zhong said: "In a short period of time, Gao Yuan swallowed the land of Qi, Wei, and South Korea, turning half of Zhao Kingdom into a vassal. Integration and reorganization are not easy. Things, if such a high-intensity external military pressure has been maintained, the great man's national strength will not necessarily be able to withstand, and the king has been constantly tossing about some surprising things, I am afraid that the internal pressure will not be small."

"Speaking of this, I am so interested. Do you know what the king has tossed about the information that came from there in the past two days?"

"I have been paying attention to the things in Kangping City during this period of time, but I have ignored the others. What has he tossed about?"

"He established several new yamen, one of which is called the *Yuan, as the nation’s highest adjudication agency. From top to bottom, the state and county are called the intermediate court, and the county is called the primary court. The power of trial is transferred from the county to the county. I was stripped out of it. That’s fine, but there is another thing that shocked me so much. Do you know what's the matter?"

"First, the Great Council, and then the *house. The big council is in charge of legislation and reviewing national policies. The power can override their political affairs hall. Now it is the *house that specializes in adjudicating and adjudicating cases. What new tricks does he have?"

"He established the Central Bank. In the whole territory of Han, gold, silver, copper and silver are no longer used as currency in circulation, but banknotes will be issued. Now the banknotes of the first wholesale bank have been listed and are beginning to be exchanged in Jicheng and Tianhe County. One to one ratio!" Huang Xie stared at the weight, "Do you know what this means?"

Qu Zhong looked at Huang Xie blankly.

"This means that Gao Yuan will exchange worthless paper for the gold and silver in the hands of the people. This means that he will accumulate amazing wealth in a very short period of time." Huang Xie said with a word.

Bending his body shook, he leaned forward to look at Huang Xie, "Gao Yuan is not a fool, why did he do this to kill himself?"

"This is exactly what I don't understand." (To be continued)
