National competition.

Cruel and naked.

In the competition between nations, people are the most critical factor.

Overpopulation.

After two thousand years, it became a big problem that troubled the people of the country. Before two thousand years, the small population was a problem that hindered the further expansion of the Qin State.

Compared with the heavily populated areas of Chu in Guandong, most of the western areas occupied by the Qin State are vast and sparsely populated areas, and there are many places where the natural conditions are not suitable for human survival. In this case, it is possible to use

A peaceful way to turn the Yuezhi, Qiang, Ba and other tribes who originally lived in these areas into Qin people is undoubtedly a clever policy in governance.

After two years of training in the position of Prime Minister of Longxi County, Li Zheng gradually took on the shadow of Li Si. A future official with the ability to handle complex affairs is what Qin needs in the future.

"The brave old Qin will restore our rivers and mountains, and we will not stop fighting until the blood is shed dry." Da Qin, which came all the way from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and bloody winds, is advancing firmly step by step.

The blood will never stop until it dries up.

There will be no truce until the blood is shed.

Li Zheng's suggestion was put forward at the right time, so Li Yuan, who was facing double pressure, could not help but be moved. The task of forming the Yuezhi Army was handed over by Li Yuan to the fierce general Cao Xin, who had always wanted to lead an army.

When a guy from a powerful army heard that Li Yuan asked him to train an army of Yueshi aliens, he was so surprised that he didn't close his mouth for a long time.

"Why, are you scared, or are you worried that the women of the Yuezhi are too unrestrained and can't bear it?" Luo Jia looked at Cao Xin's nervous look and couldn't help but joke.

"Hmph, how often have I, Mr. Cao, been afraid on the battlefield? How can I be afraid of a mere Yuezhi person?" Cao Xin replied angrily with a single eye, his burly body standing tall and erect.

After determining Longxi's strategy for dealing with the Yuezhi and other foreign tribes, Cao Xin and Li Zheng each received their tasks. They went down excitedly to prepare for their departure.

From Yongzhou to Xianyang.

When the people of the counties along the way learned that Li Yuan was driving his car for inspection, they, under the leadership of the elders of the clan, waited on the side of the road to welcome him.

"Shenhou, Shenhou, stop for a rest and take a sip of the sweet spring from Qishan——!"

"This is born from a chicken raised by my own family. The Lord Shen must accept it."

"Marquis Shen, this is ground with this year's wheat, it's white. Look -!"

In this era, it was not popular for officials to hire people to make superficial appearances. Li Yuan's motorcade kept going and stopping. It originally only took four or five days to travel, but after the last four days, Li Yuan still stopped in the Wugong area.

People's support can be expected.

This is the support that Li Yuan exchanged for his sincerity. This is what a person who has dedicated his whole heart and soul to the cause of Qin Guo's strength and prosperity hopes to see most.

Success and failure.

If you work hard, you will have no regrets.

Li Yuan will continue to move forward and continue to work hard. From the faces of the Qin people carrying clay pots, eggs and hot water, he can see the sincerity of these people.

From now on.

He will hold his head higher, puff out his chest, and walk step by step.

——.

Martial arts.

It is located at the foot of Wugong Mountain in the northern part of the Qinling Mountains. This small city on the bank of the Wei River is located southwest of the Zhengguo Canal. The trickling snow here is melting, gradually nourishing the three hundred miles of Qinchuan, the most fertile land in Qin.

This section of the road is very peaceful. Located in the hinterland of Qin State, on both sides of Chidao on the bank of the Weishui River, the snow has not completely melted. In the places where it has melted, you can see the yellow-brown soil and a little bit of newly broken ground.

Wheat sprouts.

Four years.

Things are different and people are different.

Yan Le, the former commander of Xianyang, was among the crowd at the gate of Wugong County. He stared blankly at Li Yuan's car, which was packed to the rafters, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

On Leyouyuan, the two armies faced each other and suffered the humiliation of defeat.

It seems that many years have passed, and the hatred left in the memory has gradually faded. The moment Xianyang City was destroyed and left, Yan Le decided to become a ranger traveling around the world.

In four years, he traveled all over the mountains and rivers of Guandong, all the great rivers in the world, reached Lingnan in the south, and reached the white mountains and black soil in the north.

After seeing the hard life of the people after the turmoil in Guandong, and seeing the constant attacks by various princes, large and small, for their own selfish interests, Yan Le decided to return to the forest, return to his hometown of martial arts, and live in peace and quiet.

Live quietly and well.

In this way, Yan Le found a place with water and canals on the edge of Zhengguo Canal, repaired a thatched house, and married an ordinary country girl.

"Daddy, that uncle who rides on the big horse is so cool. Niu Niu also wants daddy to ride the big horse." On Yan Le's back, a young and clear child's voice sounded.

The girl's unique childish voice was transmitted layer by layer as far as possible in the chaotic atmosphere. Li Yuan, who was surrounded in the center, looked for the source of the sound, and his eyes met Yan Le in the air.

"Yan Le!"

"Li Yuan!"

Almost at the same time, the two people saw their surprise in each other's eyes. Li Yuan did not expect that he would see a completely different Yan Le on such an occasion. He was no longer the majestic and murderous Xianyang with a sullen face.

Order, but just a simple father.

Yan Le was even more surprised. He did not expect that the little girl's cry would make Li Yuan find him among the crowd.

"I didn't expect that this guy Yan Le also has such a tender side. What's even more annoying is that this guy actually has a child." Li Yuan shook his head, feeling a hint of warmth in his heart.

Yan Le.

In the court where Hu Hai, the second emperor of Qin, was in power, he was the only person Li Yuan liked. He was able to come out of the shadow of the past, which made Li Yuan happy.

Convincing an opponent is actually more difficult than killing an opponent.

Li Yuan believed that as the Qin State became more and more powerful, those who had feelings for the Qin State would eventually return to the land of the Qin State, and would eventually be proud of every step the Qin State took.

——.

Qin is becoming stronger day by day.

This made the Qin people very proud and made their opponents tremble.

After being unable to defeat the Qin army on the battlefield, the secret war on another hidden front gradually surfaced. Although Li Bi's work performance was quite outstanding, it could not stop the princes from sending more secret wars regardless of the cost.

He went to the interior of the Qin State and engaged in assassinations, eavesdropping, and instigating rebellion.

Among these dark places, Li Cang was the most outstanding one under Liu Bang, King of Han Dynasty.

A year ago, Shen Shiqi's blind move caused Liu Bang, the king of Han, to lose his intercrop that had been lurking in Xianyang for many years, and made Zhang Liang, who was dedicated to opposing Qin, heartbroken.

At the same time, as Li Bi's investigation of the capital of Xianyang became increasingly tight, Liu Bang's newly dispatched Anjian had no way of successfully sneaking into Xianyang and Chang'an.

Li Cang was able to successfully lurk Wugong, a small town close to Xianyang, and he was already the most capable among the many surviving Yami.

This time, Zhang Liang gave Li Cang a death order and was willing to assassinate Li Cang, the most important figure in the Qin State, when his convoy passed by Wu Gong at all costs.

While Li Yuan and Yan Le were looking at each other, Li Cang, a middle-aged man with an unattractive appearance, was carrying a clay pot carrying water. He was moving forward little by little, his right hand tightly hidden in his sleeve.

"Li Cang, you can do it, you can definitely do it." Li Cang kept his eyes lowered during every step he took, which allowed him to approach the car as close as possible without attracting attention.

In order to succeed in the assassination, Zhang Liang purchased a dagger made of meteorite iron from Xiping with a lot of money. This dagger is very suitable for hiding and carrying. At the same time, it is difficult to find. For example, Li Cang now hides it in a clay pot.

As long as he could take one step closer, he could pull out the dagger from the clay pot and pierce Li Yuan's body.

As long as it succeeds.

He Licang is the most famous person in the entire Han Dynasty. His family members who have committed serious crimes can be pardoned, and this is the most important thing.

As for failure.

Li Cang no longer wanted to think about it, because there was only one outcome: death.

"kill!"

Li Cang screamed in his heart, and then rushed in front of Li Yuan's horse with a sudden step. His sudden move made the yellow fat horse Herod neigh loudly.

As a war horse that has experienced hundreds of battles, Li Yuan's mount Huang Fat Horse has passed its strongest period. As it gradually reaches its peak, it begins to feel the rushing footsteps of time. During the long journey, its energy has been exhausted.

It couldn't keep up with its younger companions, and it began to feel a little tired.

But at the moment of danger, the yellow fat horse's rich experience made it aware of the crisis. Driven by instinct, the yellow fat horse kicked hard with its hind hooves, forcing the horse to rush half a step forward.

Li Cang's body, which had originally hit Li Yuan, fell into the air. In the flash of lightning, Li Cang's dagger, which was originally aimed at Li Yuan's waist, penetrated straight into Huang Fat Ma's rear buttocks.

Horse blood spurts out.

Li Yuan's back was dyed blood red, and the blood dripped down the hind hooves of the war horse. Li Yuan, who had just relaxed his guard a little because of Yan Le's appearance, also came back to his senses at this time.

"How dare you, thief!" Li Yuan shouted, drew his sword out of its sheath, and stabbed Li Cang in the chest and abdomen as he rolled off the horse.

Li Cang failed to hit the target, and fell to the ground and rolled towards the panicked crowd. There was only one such perfect assassination opportunity. Now that it was lost, he could no longer find it. In addition to being frustrated, Li Cang could only hope.

He can blend into the crowd at the first opportunity and escape.

"Quickly, protect the Marquis." The guards were shocked and quickly surrounded Li Yuan. In the hinterland of Guanzhong like Wugong, such a serious security incident as an assassination happened. If the assassin succeeded, they would

A soldier will never be able to atone for his crime even if he is killed.

"I'm fine, go and arrest the assassin." Li Yuan quickly ordered with a gloomy face.

assassinate.

This is the most despicable political method, and it is also what Li Yuan hates the most. If a man and his husband want to win, they must fight openly and honestly based on their own ability. What kind of ability is it to rely on assassination?

Just now, fortunately, Huang Fat Ma was well versed in human nature and made a judgment in advance to move. Otherwise, Li Yuan might not have been able to avoid Li Cang's blow.

Li Yuan squatted down and saw only the buttocks of the fat yellow horse, which was bleeding profusely. The huge wounds were shocking. There seemed to be two teardrops rolling down from its huge, familiar eyes. (To be continued.)
