Fu Qin starts with a plan

Chapter 618 Power is the confidence
"You are the King of Dawan?"

A deep voice suddenly sounded.

King Dawan was shocked, and his knees bent unconsciously.

"The king of Dawan, Dawan Kingdom, pays homage to the general!"

Sitting on the horse, Li Xin looked with great interest at the monarch and ministers of Dawan who were kneeling under his horse's hooves.

Although he has always been in the Liaodong Army, he is actually just a post, and he has ignored specific military affairs for a long time.

The other veterans of Daqin, even after retiring from the army, all kept pace with the times.

After the newspaper appeared, the people of Daqin knew how to get news from the newspaper from time to time.

When it comes to state affairs, any trafficker or pawn can speak clearly and clearly.

In the process of Great Qin's unification of China, it is naturally impossible for the all-powerful veterans to be inferior to them.

However, Li Xin is such a wonderful person.

Over the years, he has been thinking behind closed doors, turning a blind eye to external affairs.

Even for the situation in the Western Regions, he made up for it during the few days on the road.

Li Xin heard that among the countries in the Western Regions, only the Great Qin is the leader.

Dawan, Guishuang and other countries almost regard Daqin as their father country.

Li Xin did not believe in such unimaginable things.

In the melee of the seven countries before, even though the other six countries were not the opponents of Daqin, they never thought of bowing their heads and giving in.

Combining vertical and horizontal, with ever-changing strategies, just to destroy the opponent.

On the battlefield, blood flowed like rivers, why did he ever say a word of begging for mercy?
If we say these things, it is because the seven countries are all Chinese people, a state of etiquette, and they have their own ambitions.

So, the Huns are uncivilized barbarians after all, right?
When the Huns faced Zhao State at the beginning, including facing Da Qin later, they never persuaded them, and even repeatedly brought a lot of trouble to the land of China.

Daqin is becoming stronger and stronger, and Li Xin can feel it even if he doesn't ask about world affairs.

However, Great Qin was so powerful that the countries in the Western Regions thousands of miles away were so afraid.

Li Xin couldn't believe it.

After all, thinking in another way, he would definitely not be able to do something like the King of Dawan in front of him.

It is simply unreasonable for the ruler of a country to bow down to him, a foreign general.

However, as the commander-in-chief of the Great Qin Dynasty, Li Xin still unconsciously felt an inexplicable sense of pride.

Ever since he lost his halberd on the battlefield of Chu State, this kind of emotion has not appeared on him for many years.

Li Xin remained silent, making King Dawan even more frightened.

"General, the Bendu kingdom has been mobilizing its troops frequently recently. The king of Bendu has said that he wants to keep the general out of the country!" King Dawan said cautiously.

During the recent period, Dawan killed many people in order to inquire about the movements of the Bendu Kingdom.

Since the Carthaginian incident in Daqin, the king of Pontus has given up all illusions.

He issued mobilization orders in the country, held court meetings frequently, and threatened to keep the Qin army out of the country.

Moreover, looking at his deployment, it seems that there is indeed the meaning of a bloody battle to the end.

In the battle of Zangfeng Valley, Mesero's grandfather, who was killed by Jiang Chao, was arranged by the king of Bendu to be the first line of defense in the east.

The purpose is very simple, it is to let the Mesero family fight bloody.

The Mesero family is in Kaer Morhen on the eastern border of the kingdom, with 35 soldiers, ready to attack the Great Qin Vanguard Army head-on.

King Dawan said, looking up at Li Xin.

To be honest, the nationwide mobilization of the Bendu Kingdom also surprised him.

Before Daqin entered the Western Regions, although the countries in the Western Regions were independent, the external environment was not particularly good.

The Bendu Kingdom used to be a tyrant here.

The original Bendu Kingdom had a regular army of 50. In terms of strength, it far surpassed the Roman Far East Legion.

Although later in the first battle with the Huns, the Pondu Kingdom was almost scared out of its wits.

However, the Xiongnu only slaughtered some cities, and for the Bendu Kingdom, it was not a serious injury at all.

The king of Bendu had already expected to touch Daqin Nilin this time.

Before Daqin sent troops, he issued a conscription order in the country.

The system of the Bento Kingdom is similar to the European aristocratic lord system.

The national army is controlled by the king.

But the great nobles in the country also have private soldiers.

Under the so-called heavy reward, there must be a brave man. Under the promise of the king of Bendu who is completely reckless about the consequences, almost all the nobles of Bendu are extremely enthusiastic about this upcoming war.

Therefore, in just one month, the number of troops in the Bendu Kingdom more than doubled to a total of 110 million and [-] troops.

Under the tremendous pressure of the war, almost all the people of the Bendu Kingdom became soldiers.

Garrisoning 35 troops in Kaer Morhen is really not a big deal.

The king of Bendu also wanted to win a first prize in the first battle with Daqin.

Because of this, people in the Western Regions are also panicking recently.

Everyone knows that Daqin is extremely powerful.

However, when Da Qin sent troops, he did not hide it at all.

Everyone knows that Daqin's expedition has less than 30 people.

Lao Shi's expedition is facing a local snake that is three times more powerful than his own and still has spare power. Can Daqin really win?

King Dawan did not have such doubts. In the Western Regions, no one knew more about how terrifying Daqin's army was than him.

What he was worried about was that those pig teammates in the Western Regions would turn into scumbags, which would affect Dawan's position in Daqin.

At this moment, King Dawan saw Li Xin sneer.

"Native chicken and dog, dare to speak nonsense!"

Li Xin snorted coldly.

Although he has been sunk for a long time, the domineering aura unique to veterans cultivated in his early years of fighting on the battlefield cannot be faked.

Although Li Xin didn't praise himself, he didn't make things difficult either.

This made King Dawan feel a little relieved.

"The general is exhausted from the march, please enter the city to rest for a while, and let me wait to show my kindness to the landlord." King Dawan said again.

Li Xin waved his hand and said: "No need, the army is going out to attack the city and loot the land, and not to enter the city lightly. I will camp outside the city, and the army will spend money, so I will trouble the king."

Li Xin's attitude was firm, although he said "excuse me", but his expression seemed to be taken for granted.

The King of Dawan hurriedly said: "Please rest assured, General, Dawan has already prepared the food and supplies."

He wanted to continue to say something, but when he heard Li Xin say 'hmm', he turned his horse around, not wanting to talk nonsense with him at all.

Seeing the back of Qin Jun receding like a tide, King Dawan couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

This time when the Great Qin sent troops, it was communicated to the countries in the Western Regions in advance, and all the needs of the army were shared equally by them.

In this regard, other countries are quite critical.

They have never heard of such a thing.

Your own country sends troops to fight, but let other countries provide military supplies? !
However, on the bright side, they all dared not take a breath.

Everyone knew that this was how Daqin punished them.

The Kingdom of Bendu colluded with the Carthaginians to cause trouble in Daqin.

In particular, [-] cavalrymen traveled through the entire Western Region in a stately manner, and went to Tibetan Wind Valley without making a sound.

Unless these countries are really deaf and blind, no matter which route they take, they will eventually detect it early.

However, Daqin had not received any news at all beforehand.

On weekdays, these countries have gained a lot of benefits by hugging Daqin's thigh.

At the critical moment, it's useless.

If Daqin really didn't respond at all, that would be a strange thing.

Can't find anyone who knows and doesn't report?

It's very simple, just sit down.

As long as it is a country between the Bendu Kingdom and Daqin, one counts as one, and no one can escape.

This time the army will go on an expedition, all of which need to be apportioned, and each country has a share.

It's just to make it clear that I want to bully you.

don't give?

Then you are the accomplice of the Bendu Kingdom, and the Daqin army doesn't mind taking care of a small country.

They're here anyway, right?
This approach naturally made the countries of the Western Regions dare not speak out.

Even in Dawan, after learning of Daqin's request, many people were filled with righteous indignation, thinking that Daqin was deceiving too much.

However, at this moment, many of the courtiers behind King Dawan who raised objections did not dare to say a word of nonsense.

The prime minister of Dawan Kingdom, a thin old man came up tremblingly.

"My king, the Qin army's food and grass"

King Dawan raised his eyelids, and said with a half-smile: "Prime Minister still has objections?"

The old man was suddenly choked and blushed.

Before, he was the leader of the courtiers who opposed Dawan's full support for the Qin army.

As a veteran minister of the three dynasties, in charge of domestic people's livelihood, the old prime minister can be said to be loyal to Dawan.

His loyalty has also been rewarded.

Since Dawan completely followed the Qin system, his status has also risen, and he has become a prime minister with one person under one man and above ten thousand people.

He is naturally very clear about who brought Dawan's prosperity in recent years.

However, this is not the reason for Daqin to take anything away from Dawan.

In the eyes of the old prime minister, Zi Widow and Dawan Wang and his son have completely become Daqin's licking dogs.

In order to lick Daqin, they completely lost Dawan's dignity as a country.

On the other hand, if you are not in charge of your family, you don't know how expensive firewood is.

Don't look at Dawan's development in the past few years, but life is just better than before.

This time, the Qin army's westward expedition required Dawan to provide food, grass and supplies, and almost took away half of the wealth that Dawan had accumulated through hard work in the past five years.

An army of 27 people is equivalent to Dawan needing to give each Qin army a catty of gold!
What is this concept?
You know, there are many small countries in the Western Regions, and the rest of the countries also have a showdown.

Calculated in this way, one expedition of the Great Qin army is almost equivalent to equipping each Qin army with an equivalent amount of gold equal to the weight of an adult.

This motherfucker is not fighting, it is making money, okay?

The old prime minister knew that wars cost money.

But he didn't believe that fighting would cost so much.

His objection was not to completely reject Daqin's request, but to let King Dawan bargain with the Qin army, or even switch to other methods for conversion.

But this request was strongly opposed by King Dawan.

Before, in the eyes of the old prime minister, King Dawan was simply unreasonable.

This king acted like a mole planted by Daqin in Dawan.

However, after seeing the Qin Vanguard Army led by Li Xin, the old prime minister changed his mind.

He has been an officer all his life, so he naturally has his own judgment on the combat effectiveness of the army.

Before that, the Great Qin army he had the most contact with was Zhang Han's expeditionary army.

Those 5 people have already made the old prime minister a little suspicious of life.

He once thought that the most elite soldiers of the Qin army were all in the expeditionary army.

Although King Dawan explained to him countless times, the soldiers of the expeditionary army were actually temporarily drawn by Zhao Kun from the Daqin frontier army, and most of them were recruits who had never been to the battlefield, so they were not elite at all.

But the old prime minister never believed it.

You are a traitor of Daqin, even if you are the king, don't try to brainwash this old man.

Such an invincible warrior is not an elite, what other army is worthy of being an elite?
Today, the old prime minister completely believed it!
Although there are certain similarities between the Qin army led by Li Xin and Zhang Han's expeditionary army.

However, as long as you have seen both sides, you can tell who is strong and who is weak.

Just a hundred steps away, the old prime minister could feel the overwhelming murderous aura coming towards him, making him almost out of breath.

This is something he has never experienced in the Loulan barracks of the expeditionary army several times.

If the expeditionary army is just a group of wolf cubs who have just learned to eat meat, then the Daqin Vanguard Army they saw this time is a complete division of tigers and wolves.

The old prime minister's face was flushed, and after holding back for a long time, he blushed and said, "I just think Dawan is too humble to Daqin."

"I know that the prime minister has always been quite critical of my attitude towards serving Daqin."

The old prime minister hesitated again and said: "Looking at my king's actions, he is indeed close to the people of Qin."

King Dawan smiled, and then sighed sadly. .
"What the prime minister said is true. The biggest regret in my life is that I was not born as a Qin native."

As soon as King Dawan said this, the expressions of the officials following him changed drastically.

As the lord of a country, he is actually envious of ordinary people in other countries. If such words are spread, it will definitely cause an uproar.

Sensing the commotion behind him, King Dawan smiled and shook his head.

This sentence is actually not the first one he said.

The first one was said by his father, Ziwi, who had abdicated and became known as Lord Xiwan in Daqin.

In the secret letter to King Dawan, Zi Widow said with emotion that he hated himself for not being born in Qin.

In the past, King Dawan would also sneer at Zi Widow's emotion.

Born in the royal family, he successfully inherited the throne and became the lord of a country.

Even a small country like Dawan already has more than [-]% of the people in the past and present.

With great power in hand, money and beauties come and go as soon as they are called, isn't this kind of life cool and unrestrained?
Only sitting in this position, the King of Dawan would know.

There is no sense of security in such a chic life.

Dawan is a small country, let alone ordinary citizens, what can a ruler like him do?
When Zi Widow was in power, his younger brother rebelled and almost broke into the palace and dragged him off his horse.

Domestic chaos continues, and when facing foreign countries, it is also because of the weak national strength that it cannot straighten up.

In the early years, the era of Antik in the Kingdom of Pontus came to an end, and the royal family of Pontus rose.

The Bendu Kingdom sent envoys to Dawan, arbitrarily demanding that Dawan pay tribute.

The king of Dawan at that time didn't dare to fart, and even went to the Kingdom of Bendu with congratulatory gifts, but died on the way because of his poor health.

In contrast, Daqin.

There is no need to talk about emperors like Shihuang and Zhao Kun. The actions of these two people perfectly explain what it means to do whatever they want.

Even ordinary citizens are rarely wronged.
