Any use of troops is recorded by the state. There is no tiger talisman but no edict, and troops cannot be mobilized. Diao
After having the tiger talisman and the edict, there is also a scepter. The scepter represents the king. After having the scepter, you can go to the officials in charge of logistics and call for grain, armaments, weapons and other logistics supplies.
Otherwise, even if you mobilize a large army, it will be useless if you don't have food, grass and other military supplies.
This is also one of the methods used by the monarch to prevent his generals from rebelling.
Historically, Wei Wuji stole the Tiger Talisman of the King of Wei, but without an edict, he could only kill the general Jin Bi, and then rely on his own prestige to command the army.
This also reflects a problem. No matter how good the system is, it is no match for someone who can mobilize an army by just swiping their faces...
There are always some people whose personality charm is beyond common sense, which makes the monarch have to be afraid.
The military power of the Zhao State has always been in the hands of Zhao Kuo. Although handing over the military power to Wei Wuji and others would leave hidden dangers, Zhao Kuo decided to do it anyway, not trusting the ministers, but trusting the soldiers. Diao
Even if someone really rebels, when he appears in front of the soldiers, they will turn their guns, stand in front of him, and kill the enemy as he goes to put down the rebellion.
There are many righteous people in the land of Yan and Zhao, and everyone knows how well Zhao Kuo treats his soldiers.
Not to mention gratitude, not to mention loyalty, not to mention sacrificing one's life for righteousness, just without Zhao Kuo, they will return to the previous life of barely having enough to eat, or even not having enough to eat, which is enough for everyone to follow them firmly.
Behind Zhao Kuo.
Moreover, when Zhao Kuo had nothing to do, he went to the military camp, talked with the soldiers, and trained together. All the soldiers knew him, and he also knew many soldiers.
If someone still rebels successfully, Zhao Kuo will cut off his head and give it to him.
As for the inspection of the Zhao Kingdom, the protection of Ben and Gai Nie is enough. There is no danger in the Zhao Kingdom that two transcendent realm warriors cannot solve.
"I obey my orders." Wei Wuji and others stopped admonishing Diao.
Zhao Kuo even left the Wang Seal and the Tiger Talisman behind. Even if the Six Kingdoms came to attack, they were confident of holding on until Zhao Kuo came back.
"By the way, when the king passes by Jinyang, remember to worship at the ancestral temple." Zhao Sheng reminded.
Jinyang is the place where the Zhao family made its fortune. Although the Zhao family's ancestral temple is in Handan, there is still an ancestral temple in Jinyang to worship the ancestors of the Zhao State before the capital moved to Zhongmou.
"My king has remembered it." Zhao Kuo nodded. Although he had no feelings for the ancestors of Zhao State, he had inherited this identity and it was appropriate to offer sacrifices. "Is there anything else?"
"Nothing."
"Let's break up then." Zhao Kuo waved and said, turning around and walking towards the harem. He needed to talk to his mother and several concubines.
"Going on a tour across the country? Wouldn't it be a waste of time and money? Zhao Guo has just been stable for two years, so it would be better to make less trouble." When the Yan family heard that Zhao Kuo was going on a tour, she put down the small clothes she was knitting for her grandson and pulled Zhao Kuo to her.
Just like when I was a child, I persuaded Dao Diao
"My mother, I am traveling lightly. There are only a few dozen people, so I will not waste people or money. This trip is not for fun, but to better govern the country. Confucius once said that teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, in fact, governing a country must also be governed by the local area.
Only by understanding the different customs, habits and needs of the local people in each region can we govern the country better," Zhao Kuo said.
"It's good that you haven't forgotten. I've seen the changes in Zhao State in the past few years. I'm afraid that you will start to be proud and extravagant after your achievements. Since you haven't forgotten to govern the country, I won't advise you."
Yan nodded.
"Then the child will go back first." Zhao Kuo stood up and saluted, left the place where his mother lived, and went to the palace where Tian Shu and others lived.
"Is the king leaving again?" When Tian Shu and others learned that Zhao Kuo was leaving, they were instantly disappointed.
"This tour is necessary because we won't have time next year," Zhao Kuo said.
Next year, the five-year period promised to the Yan State to take 200,000 captives will be up, and these 200,000 captives must be released.
At the same time, it also means that Zhao State will use troops against Yan State. Diao
The State of Zhao has been transporting grain to the State of Yan for five consecutive years and feeding the people of the State of Yan, not for charity, but to reduce resistance when Yan is destroyed, and to quickly win over the local people after destroying Yan.
If Yan cannot be destroyed quickly, everything Zhao has done before will have less and less effect as time goes by.
And these 200,000 troops will also take up their spears again and participate in the battle between Yan and Zhao.
At the same time, the countries of Yue and Chu in the south are also ready to move, and there is a possibility of war breaking out at any time.
To the west, Qin was quietly gathering strength.
Once this war starts, there is no telling when it will stop.
Zhao Kuo must eliminate the hidden dangers of Zhao State this year, and then devote all his energy to the next war. Diao
"I'm waiting for the king to come back." An Ning said a little unhappy.
"Do you want to go on a patrol with me?" Zhao Kuo suddenly thought, it's just a patrol, and no one stipulates that you can't bring your wife. Wherever that old guy Qianlong went and slept, people praised him. I just took my wife, who dares to say
What? "Anyway, you have nothing to do if you stay in the palace, just relax."
"Is this...appropriate?" An Ning said hesitantly.
"There's nothing inappropriate." Zhao Kuo said. From the eager eyes of several people, it could be seen that they wanted to go.
"I'm not leaving anymore. An'er is still young and can't afford to travel and travel." Tian Shu's eyes dimmed and she sighed.
"I'll stay with my sister," Tian Yi said.
"Then if there is a chance next time, I will accompany you on patrol." Zhao Kuo did not persuade Diao.
During the Warring States Period, there was no strange rule that mothers could not raise their own children. Little Zhao An was less than one year old and could not travel around or leave her mother for a long time.
Xiao Ponu is already three years old, and his body is relatively strong among his peers, so running around is fine.
Taking Zhao Zheng and Bin with him to see the great rivers and mountains of Zhao will also increase his knowledge.
Zhao Kuo went on the road as soon as he was told. Zhao Kuo did not delay and left Handan City with thirty guards three days later.
As for the canopy of the monarch, there is no military escort, and there is no need for it. Not to mention bringing so many people to waste money and waste the people, it will not play the role of patrol.
Moreover, he is not afraid of being assassinated. Anywhere in the Zhao Kingdom where there are people, as long as he shouts "I am Zhao Kuo, King of Zhao", a group of people will stand up to protect him, which is more useful than any large army...
"Your Majesty, should we go to the party first?" An Ning opened the curtains, looked at the westbound carriage, and asked. The little slave stood on his mother's lap, holding the window with both hands, looking outside curiously,
Two bright eyes full of curiosity about the world. Diao
"Yes, let's go to Shangdang first to see how the people there are recovering after the war, and then go north to Jinyang." Zhao Kuo said.
