Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 588 Several joys and sorrows

Looking at what was written on his hand, Zhao Kang nodded gently and said to himself: "The biggest problem now is money."

After the war, everything such as resettling refugees, repairing cities, rebuilding the army, providing pensions for soldiers, etc. all depended on money.

But now Jingguo and Qianguo are poor.

Fortunately for the Qian Kingdom, most of the expenses were spent on casting cannons, and the whole country could still cope with it by tightening their belts.

Jingguo was in dire straits. Zhao Kang had gone to the treasury before, and it made him cry when a mouse came in.

There are thousands of taels of silver in the huge treasury, which is very eye-catching.

This battle can be said to have completely wiped out Jingguo's family fortune, making it difficult to rebuild in the future.

"Oh shit!"

After thinking about it, Zhao Kang cursed, and then laughed strangely, we don't have money now, but someone has money!
Both Qi and Zhou are extremely rich!

At this time, Manager Liu from the Ye Mansion hurriedly ran over: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! There is a general asking to see you!"

Zhao Kang quickly got up and walked out. As soon as he saw him, Li Long rushed over excitedly.

"The guilty general Li Long meets Zhao Shuai!"

"Get up, get up, the general is guilty of nothing!"

Zhao Kang quickly pulled Li Long up and felt a little comforted when he saw that Li Long was still alive. Ye Hongxue and Wu Guanhai must be fine.

Li Long was ashamed and told Zhao Kang what happened in Huajing City that day.

Zhao Kang was completely relieved when he heard that Ye Hongxue and Wu Guanhai were at Jinlin Pass.

"The general's incompetence caused heavy damage to the Qinglong Army. Please punish Commander Zhao!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? When we win, we will start to reward each other based on our merits!"

Zhao Kang laughed and patted Li Long on the shoulder: "So you are not guilty. Huajing City did lose it once, but we got it back again."

"Shuai Zhao." Li Long was filled with emotion.

Thinking of something, Li Long hurriedly said: "Commander Zhao, when I arrived at the end of the day, I heard the people in the city talking about you burying the enemy prisoners alive?"

Zhao Kang raised his eyebrows: "Is there anyone talking about it so soon? But this little thing is not worth making a fuss about. Li Long orders you to return to Jinlin Pass as quickly as possible to pick up Ye Hongxue and the new king of Jingguo Wu Guanhai!"

Hearing Zhao Kang say this is a trivial matter, Li Long was speechless. He is indeed handsome Zhao!

If this kind of thing happened to others, wouldn't we worry that our ancestors' graves would be dug up?
After hearing Zhao Kang's order, Li Long nodded quickly: "General, I will obey!"

Time passed little by little.

In the imperial capital of the Qian Kingdom, Grand Master Yang, Li Yuan and other ministers were all in the main hall. Everyone was nervously looking at the battle report that Zhao Kang sent someone to send quickly, and they didn't even dare to breathe.

Li Yuan opened the envelope in a frustrated mood and saw the first line of handwriting. It must be Zhao Kang's fault that it was so ugly.

Immediately afterwards, Li Yuan laughed wildly: "A great victory! A great victory, gentlemen! The Imperial Guards have won! The rebellious minister Xiao Feiyu was killed by the Imperial Guards himself! The allied forces of Qi State and Zhou State were defeated, with less than [-] remnant troops escaping! Invasion of Jing State The millions of aliens were completely wiped out!"

"We win, we win! Hahaha!"

Grand Master Yang's face was filled with red: "The Imperial Master is really a god!"

Many ministers were shocked, and the news of victory shocked their nerves.

Xiao Feiyu was killed by Zhao Kang himself.

Less than [-] Qi and Zhou coalition forces fled Jingguo.

Millions of aliens were wiped out!

And Zhao Kang was able to accomplish all this with only more than [-] people fighting against these three parties!
"There has never been one before or since! There has never been one before or since!"

An old minister danced excitedly: "After this battle, the two countries of Qi and Zhou will be in ruins, and I will be able to unify the world just around the corner!"

In the past few years, Qi State and Zhou State were defeated twice by Zhao Kang. The domestic military strength can be said to have been irreparably damaged. Now let alone ten years, even if it is given him 30 years, it will be difficult to restore to its peak.Now, Qian Country's use of gunpowder is far ahead of other countries, and it is still being developed.

If you really give them 30 years, how many cannons and grenades will Congress have by then?

Dominate the world?
In the past, all the ministers of the country would not even dare to dream about doing this kind of thing, but now they can say it openly!

Li Yuan quickly read the letter: "I have told you that your majesty is in Qingzhou. Send someone to take him back to the imperial capital as soon as possible, and tell the world about the victory!"

A crowd of people shouted: "I will obey the orders of the Imperial Master."

Li Yuan joked: "The Imperial Master will not hear our flattery in Jingguo."

Zhang Mingyuan, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, chuckled: "Then wait until the Imperial Master comes back before filming?"

"Slap me hard!" several royal princes laughed.

For a time, the good news of Zhao Kang's victory spread rapidly in the Qian Kingdom.

Wu House.

Wu Xinyi was extremely excited, but felt a little panicked as she touched her belly.

If he wins, he will come back soon. What should he do then?
The boldness and absurdity of that night were what I thought about but what I wanted in my heart.

But Wu Xinyi didn't expect that she was so lucky. It had been more than three months since Zhao Kangyuan went to Jingguo to fight, and she actually had Zhao Kang's flesh and blood.

She was panicked now but couldn't help but feel happy. She was even more confused about how to face that person in the future.

Qi country.

News of the defeat spread to the imperial capital Shengjing as the Qi army fled back to the border of Qi State.

After hearing the news, Qi Emperor Liu Guangwen spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell ill.

Suddenly there was chaos in the court.

All the ministers panicked and quickly found someone to ask for countermeasures.

Looking at the helpless ministers, Princess Liu Yanran smiled sadly.

After the Four Kingdoms Cultural Conference, she discovered Zhao Kang's talent. After returning to China, she immediately asked the Pearl Merchant to send medicine to Qian Kingdom.

He also made a verbal covenant with Wu Guanhai, the prince of Jingguo, and the two countries established good trade.

Liu Yanran even had a bolder plan in mind.

Grasp Zhao Kang's thigh, make amends with Qian Guo and Jing Guo, develop together and finally devour the declining Zhou State.

Compared with the five states of Qian State, the seven states of Jing State, and the twelve states of Qi State.

Zhou State has a total of twenty states!Even if the population of Qian State and Jing State and Qi State were combined, they would be equal to Zhou State.

One country reaches three countries, a huge territory and a huge population. This is the reason why Zhou State was able to become the first of the four countries in the past.

However, now there is a great war, the state of Jing is almost destroyed, the state of Qi and the state of Zhou are defeated miserably, and the state of Qian also suffers heavy losses.

The most important thing is that all the plans in Liu Yanran's mind were disrupted by her father.

The relationship that was finally established was severed. With Zhao Kang's personality, it would be strange to let Qi go!

"Ninth Princess, what should we do now?"

The helpless ministers looked at Liu Yanran in panic. If this woman were born as a man, she would definitely be the crown prince of Qi.

Liu Yanran chuckled: "Now, what can I do? Just wait for the revenge of the two countries."

Some are happy and some are sad.
