Chapter 6 Zhao Guo

Author: My spear is still here

Wang Jian is not too concerned about Cheap Daddy, because he has no sense of belonging to this world, only curiosity.

But at that moment, he also understood that the first priority was to protect his own safety. He could not escape from this vortex. If the Han Dynasty army attacked, he would not be able to protect himself from the chaos. Let alone a mortal body, even if he was an out-and-out golden

It is difficult for Monk Dan to win even among thousands of troops.

The next day, the morning sun rose, and when the rays of rays of light shone on the earth, the tree-lined castle on the isolated mountaintop was particularly conspicuous, half of it was golden and green, and half of it was dark, and the two small moons in the sky became blurred in the east.

Secretary Sun Difang got up early in the morning and brushed his teeth with branches, looked at the sky and said: "The foggy moon is coming."

After yesterday's busy work, the garrison in the fortress was reduced to only one-third of the original number. The gate guards at the gate were reduced from a team of four to only one person and two commanders, who were also recognized masters in Linyin Fort.

No more fortress.

The remaining soldiers got up early in the morning, as if nothing happened yesterday, and continued to joke and walk towards the school grounds. The soldiers of the nobles were professional soldiers, and training in martial arts was their top priority on weekdays.

Some people are discussing whether Wu Tongbing has superb swordsmanship or Gong Tongbing has great marksmanship and other enduring topics.

Some people also whispered a fresh joke about the young master almost drowning himself in the bath yesterday, and gathered in twos and threes towards the school grounds in the fortress.

Until at a certain moment, the atmosphere began to condense. The people in front stopped talking and joking, and the people behind also realized that something was wrong and leaned forward one after another. Then they all witnessed a jaw-dropping scene. When the second son of the Marquis who usually idled around and did not do his job actually got up early,

Standing shirtless on the school grounds, holding a spear and practicing stabbing at a wooden stake.

Even though many people have witnessed it with their own eyes and ears, this scene is still as unbelievable as a dream.

There were beads of sweat all over the young master's body, obviously he had been practicing for a long time.

"What are you doing standing there? The time is coming, be careful of the coach." It wasn't until the young master reminded him that everyone came back to their senses and rushed to the old coach's position on the other side of the school field, but their suspicious eyes never stopped.

Until the second day, the third day, the fourth day.

Every day, the young master would appear on time at the school grounds, holding his gun and stabbing the straw man again and again. Only when he was panting and sweating profusely did everyone finally believe and accept this change.

The reason why Wang Jian did this was because he found that there were not many ways to strengthen his body except this method. He would still use Qingsu Teng to strengthen his body every day, but he only dared to use a little bit, and the more he could only rely on exercise.

Wang Jian has despaired of resuming his cultivation. Now he only hopes to strengthen his physique so that his soul can live in peace.

The reason why he chose to practice marksmanship was because it was practical on the battlefield and effective in saving lives. He also knew many marksmanship techniques.

In the next few days, there were constant reports from the scouts. Dad was always handling these matters on the tower, but Wang Jian could hear their reports clearly even under the tower.

After six or seven days of reconnaissance, the vanguard has crossed the Sentinel Ridge and has almost reached the boundary of Heyin County.

Sentinel Ridge is located southwest of Heyang. There is a village there with a post station. It is the area where Linyinbao scouts rest and turn back when they go south. Messengers and business travelers from the south will also rest there, hence the name.

In Wang Jian's remaining memory, there was an old willow tree there, surrounded by several people. People passing by did not want to enter the dark and low inn, and they all liked to sit around under the roots of the old willow tree to enjoy the cool air.

From there, one day's walk south is already the boundary of Heyin Territory.

According to the reports from the scouts, they found some traces of camps, slaughtering of cattle and sheep, and traces of fires. However, the number of people was not large and they needed to go deeper. Judging from the traces and small footprints left at the scene, if there were any remaining ones, they should be in the area.

Toward the southeast direction.

There is a problem here. It is about to cross the border into the neighboring Heyin Territory, which involves cross-border issues.

Heyin belongs to the territory of Mu Sheng, the Duke of Zomaling, one of the six ministers of Zhao State, and the relationship between the Mu family and the Wang family is not good.

Because behind the Wang family was another chief minister, the general of the State of Zhao, Wu Mi, Duke of Lishi. Wang Lie initially rose up as a general under Wu Mi in the war against the Loufan Kingdom in the northwest.

He became a lord and gained his current status step by step.

Now the foreigner is likely to be at the junction of Heyang and Heyin, or within the territory of Heyin, and a hasty search may provoke conflicts.

This is the shortcoming of the feudal country, each has its own way of doing things.

Later, Wang Jian also heard about his father’s handling of the matter.

The father was very cautious. On the one hand, he sent people north to Lishi to inform the situation, so as not to arouse the suspicion of Wu Mi, the superior general, that they were contacting the Mu family privately. He also sent people to Handan, the capital, to inform the monarch, hoping that the monarch would coordinate the matter.

Wang Jian shook his head as he listened. At this rate, with the back-and-forth and communication between all parties, an investigation would take at least a month. If the relationship is not handled well, there are objections from both parties, or there is delay, it may take more time.

This is just an investigation

With this kind of effect, if it really comes into contact with the Han Dynasty under the unified imperial system of the whole country, it will be like sitting on the emerald with bare buttocks - hitting the stone with an egg.

After breaking away from the Han Dynasty, in order to show its resistance to the Han Dynasty and to be different from the Han Dynasty, and also under the coercion of many old aristocratic warlords in the country, Zhao State restored the Liuqing system of the Spring and Autumn Period.

Because the system of the Spring and Autumn Period, when noble lords ruled the world, was of great benefit to local warlords.

As a result, the political system of Zhao State became the integration of military and political affairs. The six chief ministers controlled the government, were also the commanders of the six armies of the country, and controlled the six tiger talismans.

The Sixth Army is the main and deputy upper army, the main and deputy middle army, and the main and deputy lower army.

The nobles tacitly agreed that the chief ministers would be in charge of the affairs of state, and the chief ministers would be replaced every six years. At the end of the period, the six chief ministers would jointly decide on the new candidate.

As for the Zhang family who were originally named King Zhao by Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, the kings of Zhao today are more like decorations and symbols.

The current situation of Zhao State is that the ministers value the emperor more than the emperor. When the intensity of the war weakens and the threat of the Han Dynasty decreases, the centralization of power will inevitably be weakened, and this development will become a natural thing.

During these days, while Wang Jian was training with soldiers at the school grounds every day to improve his physical strength, he was also using his spiritual consciousness to pay attention to what was happening on the tower dozens of meters away, and he had a better understanding of the surrounding situation and the internal situation of Zhao State.

The more I get to know him, the more I understand that it is almost impossible to rely on the army of a feudal country like Zhao to resist the Han Dynasty army, whether in terms of execution efficiency, local coordination ability, or the deployment of the army.

Not as good as the Han Empire.

This gave him a deep sense of crisis and made him more aware of his father's worries.

If the Han Dynasty was really preparing to advance eastward, the situation would be desperate. Wang Jian realized that if he wanted to protect himself and live a better life in the future, he must think of other ways to break the situation elsewhere.

What should he do? He had no choice for a while. With his current status, he was far from being able to influence any situation.
