Looking at what was written on his hand, Zhao Kang nodded gently and said to himself, "The biggest problem now is money."
After the war, it is necessary to resettle the refugees, repair the city, rebuild the army, provide pensions for the soldiers, etc. Everything is inseparable from money.
But now Jingguo and Qianguo are poor.
Fortunately for the Qian Kingdom, most of the expenses were spent on casting cannons, and the whole country could still cope with it by tightening their belts.
Jingguo was in dire straits. Zhao Kang had gone to the treasury before, and it was so bad that even a mouse would make him cry.
There are thousands of taels of silver in the huge treasury, which is very eye-catching.
This battle can be said to have completely destroyed Jingguo's family fortune, making it very difficult to rebuild in the future.
"Oh shit!"
After thinking about it, Zhao Kang cursed, and then laughed strangely, we don't have money now, but someone has money!
Both Qi and Zhou were extremely rich!
At this time, Manager Liu from the Ye Mansion hurriedly came over and said, "My lord, your lord! There is a general asking to see you!"
Zhao Kang quickly got up and walked out. As soon as he saw him, Li Long rushed over excitedly.
"The guilty general Li Long meets Zhao Shuai!"
"Get up, get up, the general is guilty of nothing!"
Zhao Kang quickly pulled up Li Long and saw that he was slightly comforted. Li Long was still alive, so Ye Hongxue and Wu Guanhai must be fine.
Li Long felt ashamed and told Zhao Kang what happened in Huajing City that day.
Zhao Kang was completely relieved when he heard that Ye Hongxue and Wu Guanhai were at Jinlin Pass.
"The general's incompetence caused heavy damage to the Qinglong Army. Please punish Commander Zhao!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? When we win the battle, we will start to reward each other based on our merits!"
Zhao Kang laughed and patted Li Long on the shoulder, "So you are not guilty. Huajing City did lose it once, but we got it back again."
> "Shuai Zhao." Li Long was filled with emotion.
Thinking of something, Li Long hurriedly said, "Commander Zhao, when I was coming last night, I heard the people in the city talking about you burying the enemy prisoners alive?"
Zhao Kang raised his eyebrows, "Is there anyone talking about it so soon? But this little thing is not worth making a fuss about. Li Long orders you to return to Jinlin Pass as quickly as possible to pick up Ye Hongxue and Wu Guanhai, the new king of Jingguo!"
Hearing Zhao Kang say that this is a trivial matter, Li Long was speechless. He is worthy of being Marshal Zhao!
If this kind of thing happened to others, wouldn't we worry that our ancestors' graves would be dug up?
After hearing Zhao Kang's order, Li Long nodded quickly, "General, I will obey!"
Time passed little by little.
In the imperial capital of the Qian Kingdom, Grand Master Yang, Li Yuan and other ministers were all in the main hall. Everyone nervously looked at the battle report that Zhao Kang sent someone to send quickly, not even daring to breathe.
Li Yuan opened the envelope in a frustrated mood, and when he saw the first line of handwriting, it must be Zhao Kang's that it was so ugly.
Immediately afterwards, Li Yuan laughed wildly, "Great victory! Great victory, gentlemen! The Imperial Preceptor won! The rebellious minister Xiao Feiyu was killed by the Imperial Preceptor himself! The Qi State and Zhou State Allied Forces retreated, and the remaining troops who escaped were less than 60,000! The invaders of Jing State Millions of foreigners were completely wiped out!"
"We win, we win! Hahaha!"
Grand Master Yang's face glowed red, "The Imperial Master is really a god!"
Many ministers were shocked, and the news of victory shocked their nerves.
Xiao Feiyu was killed by Zhao Kang himself.
Less than 50,000 Qi and Zhou coalition forces fled Jingguo.
Millions of aliens were wiped out!
And Zhao Kang was able to accomplish all this with only more than 100,000 people fighting against these three parties!
"There has never been one before or since! There has never been anything before or since!"
An old minister danced excitedly, "After this battle, the two countries of Qi and Zhou will be in ruins, and I will be able to unify the world in just a matter of days!"
In the past few years, Qi State and Zhou State were defeated twice by Zhao Kang. The domestic military strength can be said to have been irreparably damaged. Now, let alone ten years, even if it is given thirty years, it will be difficult to restore to its peak. ??.
Now, Qian Country's use of gunpowder is far ahead of other countries, and it is still being researched and developed.
If you really give them thirty years, how many cannons and grenades will Congress have by then?
Unify the world?
In the past, all the ministers of the country would not even dare to dream about doing this kind of thing, but now they can talk about it openly!
Li Yuan quickly read the letter, "I have told you that your majesty is in Qingzhou. Send someone to take him back to the imperial capital as soon as possible, and tell the world about the victory!"
A crowd of people shouted, "I will obey the order of the Imperial Master."
Li Yuan joked, "The Imperial Master will not hear our flattery in Jingguo."
Zhang Mingyuan, the Minister of Household Affairs, chuckled, "Then wait until the Imperial Master comes back before filming?"
"Slap me hard!" several royal princes laughed.
For a time, the good news of Zhao Kang's victory spread rapidly throughout the Qian Kingdom.
Wu Mansion.
Wu Xinyi was extremely excited, but felt a little panicked as she touched her belly.
If he wins, he will come back soon. What should he do then?
The boldness that night was ridiculous, I thought about it but it was what I wanted in my heart.
But Wu Xinyi didn't expect that she was so lucky. It had been more than three months since Zhao Kangyuan went to Jingguo to fight, and she actually had Zhao Kang's flesh and blood.
She was panicked now but couldn't help but feel happy. She was even more confused about how to face that person in the future.
> Qi State.
News of the defeat spread to the imperial capital Shengjing as the Qi army fled back to the Qi border.
After hearing the news, Qi Emperor Liu Guangwen spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell ill.
Suddenly there was chaos in the court.
All the ministers panicked and quickly found one person to ask for countermeasures.
Looking at the helpless ministers, Princess Liu Yanran smiled sadly.
After the Four Kingdoms Cultural Conference, she discovered Zhao Kang's talent. After returning to China, she immediately asked the Pearl Merchant to send medicine to Qian Kingdom.
He also made a verbal covenant with Wu Guanhai, the crown prince of Jing State, and the two countries established good trade relations.
There is even a bolder plan in Liu Yanran's mind.
Grasp Zhao Kang's thigh, make amends with Qian Guo and Jing Guo, develop together and finally devour the declining Zhou State.
Compared with the five states of Qian State, the seven states of Jing State, and the twelve states of Qi State.
Zhou State had a total of twenty states! Even if the population of Qian State and Jing State and Qi State were added together, they would be equal to Zhou State.
One country reaches three countries, a huge territory and a huge population. This is the reason why Zhou Kingdom was able to become the first of the four kingdoms in the past.
However, now there is a great war, the state of Jing is almost destroyed, the state of Qi and the state of Zhou are defeated miserably, and the state of Qian also suffers heavy losses.
The most important thing is that all the plans in Liu Yanran's mind were disrupted by her father.
The relationship that was built so easily has been severed. It would be strange for Zhao Kang’s personality to let Qi go!
"Ninth Princess, what should we do now?"
The hostless ministers looked at Liu Yanran in panic. If this woman were born as a man, she would definitely be the crown prince of Qi.
Liu Yanran chuckled, "Now, what can I do? Just wait for the revenge of the two countries."
