Da Qin: From a disciple of Fusu to a generation of imperial masters

Chapter 368: Fusu wins, and the minister is so angry that he spits blood! Meng Tian becomes the commander again!

The ministers looked at Mo You, who had just told them that this ship had another excellent feature.

In their opinion, the ship in front of them was already very good.

They couldn't think of anything else that was excellent.

Mo You felt a little proud when he saw so many court ministers looking at him.

The ships built by their Mohist school have already attracted these court ministers.

"Your Majesty!"

"My Lords, you can see that the ship in front of you has two wooden wheels."

"These two wooden wheels are what make this ship so great."

"When a ship is sailing on a river, if it encounters a river current, it will not be hindered from sailing downstream."

"If the river flows backward, it will be very difficult for the boat to move forward."

"The two wooden wheels on this ship can be turned when the river flows backwards."

"This will reduce the impact of the countercurrent and will not affect the movement of the ship."

"If the river flows downstream, the ship can go faster."

"With these two wooden wheels, the ship can reach its destination faster."

Mo You looked at everyone and explained the function of the two wooden wheels on the ship.

On the drawing that Lin Xuan gave him, there were two wheels.

At that time, Mo You was a little confused as to why the boat had to have two wheels.

This will actually increase the weight of the ship, after hearing Lin Xuan's explanation.

In addition, after they tried it themselves, they fully understood how important these two wooden wheels were to the ship.

This made Mo You admire Lin Xuan even more in his heart. Lin Xuan always brought him surprises.

Starting from the three-piece set of horse harness, to the later Zhuge Crossbow, the giant siege crossbow, and now the huge ship.

These are all Lin Xuan's masterpieces, and they, the Mohist School, created them according to Lin Xuan's drawings.

Ying Zheng looked at the ship in front of him with a smile on his face. He already knew how excellent this ship was.

After hearing Mo You's introduction today and seeing the ship with his own eyes, Ying Zheng was very happy.

This ship represents the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, who can conquer other kingdoms and tribes.

Resolve potential threats for Daqin and bring back rich resources for Daqin.

When Ying Zheng thought of this, Lin Xuan's figure appeared in his mind.

During this period, the Qin Dynasty developed rapidly and the court was much more stable.

Ying Zheng had been pretending to be Fusu's uncle and talking to Lin Xuan, and gained a lot.

Ying Zheng thought that he could no longer disguise himself and talk to Lin Xuan like this, so he found an opportunity to reveal his identity.

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng smiled and looked at the huge ship on the river again.

The ministers in the court were shocked again when they heard Mo You's words. The huge ship in front of them had already shocked them.

I didn't expect that the wooden wheels on this ship could prevent the river from flowing backwards.

This way the ship's navigation will be unhindered, which will give the ship an even greater advantage.

Some ministers looked at the minister who opposed Fusu. Just now in the Qilin Hall, this minister opposed Fusu's proposal to send troops to attack other kingdoms and tribes.

Now Fusu has proven himself that there is a huge ship in front of him.

Enough to carry tens of thousands of soldiers and walk on the river.

Some ministers looked at Fusu again, and at this time there was a smile on Fusu's face.

"Father, this ship is the foundation of my life."

"The head of the Mo family has just introduced this ship to the emperor and the others."

"With this ship, there won't be any problem for tens of thousands of troops to cross the river and attack other kingdoms and tribes."

"Minister, are you satisfied with Fusu's self-affirmation?"

Fusu said this, looking at the minister who had refuted him in the Qilin Hall.

When everyone heard Fusu's words, they looked at the minister.

Seeing everyone's gaze, the minister who refuted Fusu no longer had the confidence he had at the beginning.

His face turned even paler and his mind went blank.

"puff!"

The minister who refuted Fusu suddenly vomited blood, fell to the ground and fainted.

Several doctors who came with the First Emperor and his ministers hurried forward to treat the minister.

When the ministers saw this scene, there was a strange look on their faces. This time, the minister and Fusu were at loggerheads.

In the end, Fusu was the winner, and the minister who refuted Fusu fainted due to anger.

This is not the worst thing for the minister. I'm sure he won't be able to keep his official position.

Refuting Fusu's two objections was a wrong decision.

Two mistakes are enough to remove a person from his post. Now the ministers of the Qin Dynasty are no longer replaced by their clansmen.

This minister will never appear in Qilin Palace again, and his clansmen will not take over his position.

No minister came forward to check on the minister who refuted Fusu, and this man soon ceased to be a minister in the court.

To have contact with this person now is to go against Prince Fusu.

This time, Prince Fusu asked the Mohist school to build a huge ship, which made a great contribution.

No minister dared to offend Fusu at this time.

"My dear ministers, is there anyone who objects to Fusu's proposal?"

Ying Zheng looked at everyone with a calm expression.

Everyone looked at each other. The ship on the river had solved the problem of crossing the river for the army.

If you stand up and oppose now, you will definitely end up like the minister who refuted Fusu in the Qilin Hall.

Fusu also looked at these ministers with a smile on his face.

He was confident that no one would question him when this ship came out.

Meng Yi and Meng Tian looked at each other, with excitement in their eyes.

The two of them had already made preparations just now in case Prince Fusu's self-certification failed to satisfy His Majesty and the ministers.

The two of them stood up and took the blame on themselves.

When they saw the ship, they were both very shocked.

After hearing Mo You, the head of the Mo family, introduce the ship, the two of them felt more confident.

The minister who had just refuted Fusu was unconscious, and the two men felt very relieved when they saw this.

Now the two of them were completely relieved by Prince Fusu's self-certification.

His Majesty and the ministers in the court have been convinced.

"Your Majesty, I second Prince Fusu's request."

"I second the proposal!"

"I second the proposal!"

Some ministers who supported Fusu stood up, bowed and spoke in support of Fusu.

"Your Majesty, with this ship there will be no problem for the army on the river. I agree to send troops to attack other kingdoms and tribes."

"With this ship, there won't be any problems in sending out troops."

"."

Some neutral ministers who had previously doubted Fusu also spoke up to support Fusu's request.

Meng Yi and Meng Tian looked at each other with smiles on their faces, and all the ministers agreed to what Prince Fusu had requested.

There are no longer any obstacles to sending troops to attack other kingdoms and tribes.

"Since you, my dear ministers, have no objection, I agree with Fusu's request."

"Send troops to attack the kingdoms and tribes near Daqin. Li Si, you will draft this imperial edict on my behalf."

Ying Zheng said this, looking towards Li Si.

"I obey your order!" Li Si bowed and saluted after hearing what the First Emperor said.

When Fusu heard his father's words, a smile appeared on his face.

Although the teacher had talked about this with my father before, I was still very happy to hear my father say today that he would send a large army to attack other kingdoms and tribes.

He has completed what the teacher told him to do and has not let the teacher down.

"I want to send a large army to attack other kingdoms and tribes, but the army is still lacking a commander."

"My dear ministers, what do you think about the selection of the commander?"

Ying Zheng looked at everyone and asked.

The ministers looked at each other, and no one spoke up to recommend a candidate for the commander.

"Your Majesty, I would like to recommend a general to serve as the commander in chief in this attack on other kingdoms and tribes."

The ministers who were still thinking looked at Fusu.

Fusu was the first to speak and recommend the candidate for the commander-in-chief, so they naturally listened carefully.

When Ying Zheng heard Fusu's words, he smiled and asked, "Fusu, which general do you want to recommend as the commander?"

"Your Majesty, the general I recommend is none other than General Meng Tian."

Fusu looked at the First Emperor and said Meng Tian's name.

When the ministers heard Fusu's words, they all looked at Meng Tian.

Many ministers looked calm, as they expected Fusu to recommend Meng Tian.

Everyone in the court knew that the Meng family supported Fusu.

When the army sets out on this expedition, Fusu will naturally recommend trustworthy generals to Your Majesty.

Meng Tian would naturally be recommended by Fusu, but Meng Tian would serve as the main general.

No minister would think it was not possible, as Meng Tian's military achievements were all gained through fighting on the battlefield.

"Your Majesty, it has not been long since General Meng Tian returned to Xianyang City from his expedition to the land of Baiyue."

"I think it's better to let General Meng Tian recuperate. Since there are so many generals in the Qin Dynasty, we should change another general to be the chief commander and go to conquer other kingdoms and tribes."

A minister stood up, bowed to the First Emperor, and expressed his thoughts.

Fusu looked at the minister without any surprise.

He was already prepared that if he recommended Meng Tian, ​​there would definitely be ministers who would stand up and oppose him.

"Your Majesty, General Meng Tian is a veteran of the battlefield."

"He has made great achievements in battle and enjoys a high reputation in the army."

"We defeated the Xiongnu twice on the border and conquered the land of Baiyue, bringing back many resources for the Qin Dynasty."

"General Meng Tian already has experience in attacking other enemy locations. This time, he is the best candidate to lead the attack on other kingdoms and tribes."

Fusu looked at the First Emperor and once again recommended Meng Tian.

The ministers looked at each other and no one stood up to speak.

What Fusu and the minister had just said seemed reasonable to them.

Ying Zheng looked at Meng Tian calmly, "Meng Tian, ​​do you have the confidence to lead the army to conquer these kingdoms and tribes and bring back the resources?"

When everyone heard what the First Emperor said, they looked at Meng Tian.

Meng Tian was stunned for a moment and then quickly reacted. He remembered that he was in the carriage.

Fusu told him that he would recommend himself to His Majesty as the main general of this attack.

Meng Tian did not want to miss this opportunity, nor did he want to let down Prince Fusu's recommendation.

If the position of commander slips away from him, he will definitely feel very guilty.

"Your Majesty, I am confident that I can lead the army to attack these kingdoms and tribes and bring their resources back to Qin."

Meng Tian had a resolute expression on his face and looked at the First Emperor, expressing his opinion by bowing his head.

When everyone heard Meng Tian's firm words, they knew that Meng Tian was ready.

When Ying Zheng heard Meng Tian's words, he smiled and said, "I believe in your military ability."

"You will be the commander in chief of the attack on other kingdoms and tribes this time."

"I believe you will return with a great victory. Meng Tian, ​​please do not disappoint me."

Ying Zheng looked at Meng Tian and agreed to Fusu's recommendation, letting Meng Tian serve as the commander of this army.

"I promise Your Majesty that I will conquer these kingdoms and tribes and bring back their resources."

Meng Tian knelt on one knee and bowed with a serious expression.

When other ministers saw this scene, they knew that it was impossible to change Meng Tian’s position as the commander-in-chief.

Fusu had a smile on his face at this time, his mission was completely accomplished.

He asked his father to order an attack on other kingdoms and tribes, and Meng Tian would be the main general.

When Ying Zheng heard Meng Tian's words, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face, and he looked at the huge ship on the river.

Ying Zheng walked towards his carriage, ready to return to the palace.

"Retreat!"

The eunuch who summoned the emperor looked at everyone, announced the end of the court session and turned to leave.

Some ministers looked at each other, got on their carriages and left.

Soon only a small number of ministers were left, and these ministers gathered around Fusu and Meng Tian.

"Master Fusu is indeed amazing. He was able to get the Mohist School to build such a huge ship."

"With this ship, the army will have no problem traveling on the river."

"Prince Fusu should be credited with the greatest achievement in this great victory."

Some ministers looked at Fusu and praised him one after another.

When Fusu heard what these ministers said, he smiled and did not expose their intention to flatter him.

If it were the Fusu of the past, he might have been dismissive of all this.

Now Fusu has understood the ways of the world, and his teacher has taught him many things.

The ministers who were flattering him also responded modestly.

After praising Fusu, these ministers began to praise Meng Tian.

The Meng family, to which Meng Tian belongs, has a great reputation in Daqin, and the leaders of this generation of the Meng family, Meng Tian and Meng Yi, are also very capable.

The reputation of the Meng family continued to rise, and this time Meng Tian was the commander of the army.

When you return triumphantly, you will receive rewards from Your Majesty and praise from the people of Qin.

They must maintain good relations with Meng Tian, ​​or at least not become Meng Tian's enemies.

When Meng Tian heard the praises from these ministers, he humbly responded one by one.

Soon, only Fusu and the two brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi were left by the ship, while the other ministers got on the carriages and left back to Xianyang City.

Mo Youye and his clansmen from the Mohist School continued to build the things needed for the ship.

"Congratulations, Brother Meng Tian. Father still allows you to serve as the commander of this army."

"I believe you can win a great victory and return triumphantly."

Fusu looked at Meng Tian with a smile on his face.

When Meng Tian and Meng Yi heard Fusu's words, they also smiled.

"I have to thank Master Fusu for this. If it weren't for Master Fusu recommending Meng Tian to Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty may choose another general to be the commander of the army this time."

As Meng Tian spoke, a smile appeared on his face.

Meng Yi, who was standing by, nodded slightly after hearing what Meng Tian said, "Brother is right."

"If it weren't for the young master's recommendation to Your Majesty, my brother might not have become the commander."

"When we were in the carriage, the young master said that he wanted my brother to be the commander-in-chief. I was still a little nervous."

"After all, your self-evidence has not yet been recognized by His Majesty and other ministers."

As Meng Yi spoke, there was a hint of fear on his face.
