With Sima as the leading figure, Ying Gao's work has made great progress.
For a time, the meritorious families represented by Wang Jian and Meng Tian handed over two-thirds of their dead soldiers. Within three days, Ying Gao had 30,000 elite dead soldiers.
When the document in Tingwei's Mansion spread throughout the Qin Dynasty, the rangers in various states and counties disappeared. They were either forced to reform by the government or smuggled into the Six Kingdoms of Shandong.
For a time, Ying Gao's name resounded throughout the counties and counties of the Qin Dynasty, and he was deeply hated by countless meritorious families.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the trend of raising scholars was greatly developed.
Not to mention a dead soldier!
Although Lord Shang had suppressed the rangers in Da Qin since his reform, after several lifetimes, they were still not completely eradicated. Ying Gao was able to make up for it this time.
Ying Gao knew in his heart that these people would offend him sooner or later, and they would not support him in becoming the crown prince and emperor of Great Qin anyway.
An overly powerful prince is not a good thing for officials.
There is no king in the history of the Qin Dynasty who is not strong.
This made the officials extremely fearful of Ying Gao. The most important thing was that Ying Gao had no major support behind him. Everything he had came from Ying Zheng.
Even if he offends the whole world, he cannot offend Ying Zheng, otherwise, he will be doomed in an instant.
...........
Late August.
A heavy rain fell from the sky, saving the Qin Dynasty and the First Emperor.
The heavy rain came, and the dark clouds above the heads of the entire Daqin seemed to dissipate in an instant. For a time, Jingdong and Weibei became very lively.
Following the imperial court's order, people from all counties and counties in Da Qin drove into the Jingshui River in an endless stream, drove into the Jingshui River Valley, and drove into the high slopes of Weibei.
For a time, both sides of the Jingshui River were filled with people, and it was so dark that you couldn't see the edge at a glance.
.........
This time, Great Qin recruited civilian men, regardless of age or weakness, as long as they were human beings.
In times of famine, if we continue to select the strongest, many people in Da Qin will die. For a time, on the Jingshui construction site, everyone is wanted and no one will be refused.
This news was released, and the entire Qin Dynasty cheered.
Of course, this is because the Qin Dynasty has accumulated a lot of food over the past century and has enough food. Otherwise, no country would dare to do this. Just by opening the six warehouses in Guanzhong, there are millions of grains of all kinds.
There is no doubt that it is more than enough to support the canal project.
Ying Gao also heard a little bit about this incident.
When he organized 50,000 dead soldiers into the Lantian camp, this feeling was not obvious, but when he received the news above the Jingshui River, his worry couldn't help but grow further.
In Guanzhong, the hinterland of the Qin Dynasty, almost all the people were overwhelming the Jingshui River, which meant that the Qin Dynasty had no room for maneuver. This time, the Jingshui diversion project could only succeed but not fail.
If the canals fail, the whole country will be paralyzed.
At this time, once the six Shandong countries joined forces to attack Qin, Da Qin would not be able to provide even the heavy supplies and civilian power.
This is the greatest danger.
As soon as he thought about this, Ying Gao didn't care about the corpse lying in Tingwei's mansion. He quickly got up and said: "Prepare the car, I want to see my father--!"
.........
"My son, Ying Gao, has come to see his father. My father has been king for ten thousand years, and the Qin Dynasty has been for ten thousand years——!"
Seeing the fatigue on Ying Zheng's face, Ying Gao also sighed. It was too difficult for Ying Zheng at this time. The domestic diversion project affected the people of Guanzhong, and because of the expulsion order incident, the Six Kingdoms of Shandong were ready to take action.
At this time, both inside and outside Great Qin need to keep a close eye on him. At this moment, Ying Zheng is naturally Alexander.
"Master Gao, is the matter in your Tingwei Mansion settled?" Ying Zheng was also a little surprised when he saw Ying Gao coming, and said.
"Father, all the knights in the major counties of the Qin Dynasty were suppressed. They either smuggled themselves to other countries or served and reformed locally. As for the dead, about 50,000 people were all handed over to General Mengwu."
At this point, Ying Zheng's expression changed and he said: "Father, my sons and I heard that Li Si and Zheng Guo did not reject anyone who came. Now there are millions of people on the Jingshui Project, and the people in Guanzhong have been completely wiped out.
"
"Because of the expulsion order, the Six Kingdoms of Shandong are ready to take action. I have nothing to do in Xianyang. Should I return to Sanchuan County?"
Hearing this, Ying Zheng's eyes flashed and he said, "Do you think the Six Nations will attack Qin?"
"Um!"
Ying Gao nodded and said in a solemn tone: "If I were the king of any of the six countries, I would definitely plan to attack Qin with all my strength. The Great Qin is now at its most vulnerable."
"The people of Qin are all in Jingshui. Once the six countries join forces to attack Qin, food alone will not be able to be transported. Moreover, the severe drought has just passed, coupled with the disturbances such as Marquis Wenxin and the expulsion order, this is the time when the people of Qin are most confused.
when."
...........
After hearing this, Ying Zheng was silent for a moment, and said in a faint tone: "Gao, at this moment, Great Qin is in danger, and my father is also unable to do anything else."
"It's already the end of August, and September is coming. According to the news from Zheng Guo, the first crossing of the Jing River Diversion Project will be opened in October. At the beginning of October, not only the six kingdoms of Kanto, but also the Huns in the north."
"On the Jingshui River Canal, Li Si is in charge. I believe there will be no problem in a short time. The six countries in Guandong need me to personally take charge of the planning. I am worried about others."
"And the inspections of the counties in Guanzhong require me..."
Having said this, Ying Zheng paused and said, "How about you go north to Jiuyuan and patrol the North for your father..."
Hearing this, Ying Gao was shocked and couldn't help but said to Ying Zheng: "Father, when you go north, you need to take charge of the three armies. My son has only seen some military skills, not to mention that he is only ten years old after the end of the year.
.”
"If my son joins the army, I am afraid that he will not be in harmony with Qin's laws. Moreover, beside my father, General Wang Jian, General Wang Ben, and General Meng Tian are all talented generals..."
The moment Ying Zheng mentioned going north, Ying Gao felt extremely excited. In such a world of great conflict, who wouldn't want to fight with iron and steel across the battlefield?
It's just that he's too young.
When you go to the battlefield, you are basically going to die.
"Of course my father understands what you said, but there is one thing about you that makes them miss. You are Gu's son, and your surname is Da Qin Ying!"
"Your presence in the Northern Territory means that the royal family is with them, but Meng Tian and others cannot do that. I originally planned to let Fusu go, but Fusu's character is too weak and is not suitable for the Northern Territory—!"
Hearing what Ying Zheng said, Ying Gao knew that these were heartfelt words between father and son. For a moment, he couldn't think of an excuse to refuse.
He just opened his business in Sanchuan County, but now he doesn't know what's going on.
"Father, my son is willing to share my father's worries. I don't know when to go north?"
At this moment, Ying Gao knew that he could not refuse and could only obey.
In Da Qin, Ying Zheng is the sky.
His idea is the will of Da Qin, and no one can violate it.
Hearing this, Ying Zheng chuckled and said: "Don't worry, I plan to go to Lantian Camp, and then take a look at Sanchuan County -!"
