Hearing Qian Hong's words, Zhou Qing muttered something, waved his hand, and the document turned into a stream of light and fell into his hand.
The development of the Naval Academy in recent years is quite good. Looking at the entire Xia Kingdom, the most complete naval forces are in Yan, Qi, and Chu Jiangdong, which are close to the sea and crisscrossed by rivers.
In the past, when Wu and Yue were fighting, the navy's brilliant performance was evident. What's more, when the merchants themselves traveled through the Three Kingdoms, it was also very convenient for merchant ships to intersect among them.
The navy of the Qin Kingdom was built, initially formed, and divided into branches. There was no need to use it for war, but now a blue-colored document arrived, in accordance with the confidentiality level in the naval academy.
Although it is not as good as the red and black levels above, it is still a document of vigilance.
"Haha, the Chu State is very vigilant. The Chief Commander of the Chu State, Xiang Yan of Shangzhu State, has mobilized hundreds of ships and 3,000 manpower on the south bank of Dongting to block the entire Chu State's defenses."
"He even...wanted to go north to the Yunxi area, just to be intimidated."
Opening the document and looking at its contents, Zhou Qing couldn't help but smile.
The Chu State does have some preventive measures, but... it is too vigilant. The Qin State has no plans to attack the Chu State yet, and it is not wise to start a conflict with the Chu State in Dongting.
"In Chu State, Xiang Yan's clan has already shared interests with Fu Cu. Fu Cu is issuing an order to extend favor, and Xiang Yan is assisting him. Similarly, for Xiang Yan to reorganize Chu's military strength and retrain Chu.
There are many legions in the country, and Fu Chu also provides strong support."
"The shores of Dongting Lake are the ancestral land of the Chu State. It is reasonable for the Chu State to have such turmoil."
When Bai Qianhong heard this, she also had a smile on her face.
Among the Xia kingdoms, if we have the clearest understanding of which one, it is only Chu. Since the Spring and Autumn Period, Chu has been a big country, and it is still a big country today. Unfortunately... a big country cannot become a powerful country.
More than a hundred years ago, Wu Qi initiated reforms in the Chu State, and his actions were similar to what Shang Yang did in the Qin State, and even preceded Shang Yang by several decades. However, the old aristocrats of the Chu State were too powerful, and their achievements fell short. Since then,
The reform failed.
Just like what the adults said before about the way of humanity and the way of heaven, when the way of humanity goes to extremes, there is only one result.
If the King of Chu wants stronger power, he will undoubtedly seize it from the old family, but... the old family will definitely not agree. That is a huge resistance. Now that Xiang Yan supports Xiang Yan, it is not that he does not have that.
possible.
But it takes too much time.
In the past, when Shang Yang was in Qin, it took him twenty years to make Qin's laws spread throughout the Qin State. The situation in Chu State was more complicated, and it was more difficult to change. But what Chu State lacks now is time.
The Qin Kingdom came out of the east, and South Korea and Zhao Kingdom were destroyed.
Not surprisingly, within three years, it was not difficult to pacify Yan and Wei. During this period, only Qi and Chu were left in the Xia Dynasty. In the early years, I had thought about taking the lead in attacking Chu or Qi.
The State of Chu... has a great possibility of facing the enemy directly.
"No need to pay attention."
"The State of Chu will not easily touch the State of Qin now."
Zhou Qing didn't say much. Xiang Yan's gesture was just a warning, but... a warning is a warning after all, if Xiang Yan had the courage to directly start a war with Qin on Dongting Lake.
I am afraid that the first person to oppose it is the King of Chu.
Bai Qianhong nodded in response.
******
Xianyang!
Three days have passed since the envoys of the State of Yan assassinated the king in Xianyang Palace. During these three days, the entire Xianyang city was under martial law, and patrol soldiers captured the rangers hiding in Xianyang one after another.
At the entrance of the market, he was killed directly without any mercy. For a time, the whole Xianyang was in awe.
"Your Majesty, this time the Yan State envoys entered the main hall unimpeded. It was Li Si's fault."
"I beg to be demoted!"
In the past three days, this was the first court meeting of the Qin Dynasty. All the civil and military ministers gathered together, all of them looked solemn and did not dare to be rude in any way. No one knew what the king was thinking at this moment.
A few years ago, two Zhao assassins entered the Qin Dynasty, and many people paid the price for them.
This time... the one from the Yan Kingdom almost succeeded, and everyone can almost imagine the fate of the Yan Kingdom.
In Zhangtai Palace, Li Si looked ashamed and bowed deeply.
"My lord, please resign!"
Shang Qing Yao Jia also looked ashamed and stepped forward to bow.
"Sir's strategy is only based on the overall situation of the world. What's wrong with that?"
"There are a lot of people like rats and dogs stealing in the world! If we just take precautions and close the door to block people, how can we succeed in the world? It is unheard of for a country's long-term strategy to change because of an assassin!"
The King of Qin was wearing a royal crown, his hair was tied up with a big crown, and his nine-stringed pearls were swaying. He walked up and looked at Li Si in the palace. He slowly moved his hand with one hand and shook his head. The fault of this matter did not lie with Li Si.
It’s not about the important ministers who insisted on letting Yan’s envoys enter Xianyang Palace. If we talk about it... we can only say that Yan’s plans were too deep, and Qin treated them with sincerity, but Yan was extremely despicable.
"Your Majesty, I have so many ministers."
Hearing the words of the first king, Li Si was filled with emotion. He wanted to persuade the Yan State to surrender with benevolence, but after what happened, it was already impossible. Moreover, the king thought that he would be extremely wary of other countries surrendering in the future.
"There is no need for this. There are only three things to do in today's court meeting."
"First, those who have made meritorious service three days ago will be rewarded!"
"Mr. Changping, what do you think?"
Qin Wangzheng waved his palm again to signal Li Si and Li Si in the palace to return to their ranks. He changed the subject, glanced at the ministers, and talked about today's events. He took a deep breath and finished his words.
"Your Majesty, Qin Fa will be rewarded for his merits, as it should be."
Her hair is tied up with a high mountain crown, her body is covered by a black and red brocade robe, and her waist is wrapped with a jade belt.
“Very good.”
"On that day, the palace protectors took action, and for their role in protecting the law, although it was their duty, they were also given a heavy reward in front of the minister!"
"Mr. Gai Nie is our chief swordsmanship teacher. He has the function of guarding. He has been promoted to two levels of nobility. He can participate in political affairs. He will also be given heavy rewards in front of officials!"
"The Che Mansion ordered Zhao Gao to rescue the driver urgently. Although he had merit, he was guilty first. I once said that it was enough for Zhao Gao to serve as an official, and he would not be promoted in his life. Even so, Qin Fa had merit and should be heavily rewarded.
, was promoted to the first level, and from now on, he will assist Li Si in controlling the snare."
Qin Wangzheng smiled slightly. In the past three days, thanks to the efforts of everyone on that day, the whole government has drafted a document. He is very satisfied. Today, he should interpret the foundation of Qin's law.
Those who have merit must be rewarded, and those who have made mistakes must be punished!
"Here!"
Xiong Qi, Lord of Changping, bowed again.
The ministers also paid tribute. The king could still be so restrained and measured after such a big event. The king's behavior became more and more unpredictable, but... the reward was not the focus of today's court meeting.
"Secondly, three days ago, Han Shen, the envoy of the Yan State, was an assassin. In the Xianyang Palace, Master Tianming was robbed. The knights were so rampant. If we don't kill him, we will have trouble sleeping and eating."
"From now on, a ban on martial arts is issued. All major counties and counties in the Qin State will strictly inspect and affix documents to the public. If they find anything, they will try their best to capture them. However, they will not report the information. They will all be punished together and sentenced to severe punishment."
"The government drafted a document and circulated it to all the countries in Shandong. Anyone who comes into contact with the Qin Rangers is the enemy of the Qin Dynasty."
They are also rangers, they are Baijia, and they are assassins... They have been against Qin for many years, and they have always been like this, but... they wanted to kill him, so they fled to the Shandong countries. They were so annoyed that they killed him.
It's impure.
This time... no matter what, the most severe blow must be given.
"Here!"
Changping Jun Xiong Qi gave another gift.
The ministers nodded, as it should be.
"Third, I am determined to raise an army to destroy Yan!"
After the suggestion was made, Qin Wangzheng's eyebrows were solemn.
"Here!"
After taking a breath, in Zhangtai Palace, the officials bowed their hands and bowed deeply.
Yan State is destroying itself, and no one can save it.
