Chapter 272 Choose Yourself
"Archers, get ready!" Meng Tian gave the order, and the archers in the back row quickly drew their bows and aimed their arrows at the Hu Lu army.
"put!"
With Meng Tian's order, thousands of arrows were fired and flew towards the heads of the Hu people like a swarm of locusts.
Suddenly, shouts of killing were heard everywhere, and the battle officially began.
As soon as they met, they were shot to death by sharp arrows. The Hu people gritted their teeth and dodged, and finally waited for the opportunity for close combat.
However, there was no indiscriminate killing as the Hu people had imagined.
The Qin army's horses were still shorter than them, as if they could be chopped at will.
However, the Qin soldiers seemed to have tied themselves to the horses' backs and would not fall off their horses no matter how hard they were beaten.
Only when the Hu people looked carefully did they discover the difference of the Qin cavalry.
Each of the Qin army's horses had a strangely shaped stool-like object on its back, which tied the Qin soldiers firmly to the horse's back.
There are also two long ropes hanging on both sides of the horse's back, which can fix the Qin soldiers' feet well.
Only then did they realize that it was no wonder that the Qin soldiers dared to take the initiative to attack, it turned out that they had such a powerful weapon.
But they found out too late.
Even if they wanted to install the same thing for themselves, they didn't have time.
Even though Touman Chanyu in the rear had time, he did not have enough craftsmen and materials to make the number of saddles needed for the entire army.
The disadvantage was obvious, and Aguma was extremely anxious.
The Qin soldiers had saddles and stirrups, which doubled their combat effectiveness. Coupled with their new armor and swords, their defense and attack capabilities were beyond the reach of the Hu army.
On the battlefield, swords flashed and blood and flesh flew everywhere, and the defeat of the Hu people was obvious.
Meng Tian seized the opportunity and gave an order. The divine thunder fell from the sky and was thrown into the rear of Hu's army by the catapult.
"Boom-"
"Ah-"
Earth-shaking explosions rang out one after another.
There was an immediate commotion among the Hu army, with horses neighing and broken arms flying.
"Divine punishment! Divine punishment again! Run—"
No longer willing to fight, Hu's army quickly fled backwards.
Meng Tian decisively ordered: "Chase!"
The Qin army's cavalry surged forward like a tide, launching a ruthless pursuit of the Hu Lu. Their crushing momentum was unstoppable, and the Qin army advanced all the way, invincible!
This battle, which originally lasted a year, is now progressing at an extremely fast pace.
"Princess, Princess, there's military news from the front. Captain Ma has made another contribution!"
The little maid joyfully lifted the door curtain, and the sound of good news spread far away.
The Fourth Princess's cheeks immediately turned red, and she scolded the maid, "Whoever wants to know the military reports from the front line, leave immediately."
The little maid had already seen the princesses in the hall at this time, and immediately realized that she had caused trouble, so she hurriedly backed out of the hall.
But it's too late.
"Hahaha! Little Fish..."
"Fourth sister is blushing... hehe~"
The sisters gathered around the fourth princess and joked with her.
The usually spoiled Fourth Princess was now at a loss for words after being teased by her sisters. She lowered her head, her eyes darting left and right, only daring to stare at everyone's shoes. She said coquettishly, "You just like to make fun of me. I don't care about that Captain Ma."
"Oh~ Xiaoyuer is really stubborn."
"Hahaha! Yeah, I'm just being stubborn."
The fourth princess couldn't bear it anymore, so she turned around and buried her face in her sleeves, not wanting anyone to see it.
This move caused everyone to laugh again.
"Okay, okay, stop teasing her and let's listen to the military reports from the front."
When the laughter died down, the Fourth Princess turned around with a red face and listened to the latest battle report with Su Jinyue and the others.
In just over a month, the army had advanced to the tent of Chanyu Tuoman. It was believed that it would not be long before the Qin Dynasty could recover the entire Hetao region and move forward.
Hearing that there were herds of cattle and sheep and vast grasslands over there, the princesses couldn't help but feel curious and wanted to go for a visit.
However, the route for the second round had already been decided, so they could only think about it in their minds.
The clouds gathered and dispersed slowly and without any hurry.
The ministers in the Qinzheng Hall were also very relaxed at this time.
They sat opposite each other, drank the nourishing hot soup, and spoke a few words from time to time.
"The cement needs to be delivered now. Laborers will be dispatched from Shangjun and other places to pave the official road."
Li Si drank the hot soup and slowly made suggestions.
The military generals have conquered a large piece of land, and how to govern it next depends on these civil officials.
They can't let down their guard, otherwise, they will be chased and scolded by those generals.
Wang Wan followed suit and added, "We should also call on the people to move north, but it's bitterly cold over there. I wonder if the people would be willing to go."
"What's the difficulty?" Zhi Su Nei Shi's voice was old and he spoke slowly, but he was very excited.
"There's vast fertile land over there. The barbarians don't cultivate it, they only know how to plunder, raising cattle and sheep that don't require much effort, letting them graze until they grow up and eat meat. If the people of the Great Qin were to go there, they could cultivate vast tracts of fertile land in less than two years."
He is very obsessed with land, especially land that can be used for farming.
The Imperial Master once said that the land there is fertile, irrigated by large rivers, and has abundant water resources.
He has always kept it firmly in mind!
Now that the land has been conquered, it has become the apple of his eye.
No one can stop his determination to turn this place into a granary.
"As long as we state in the monthly report that the Grand Master once said that the area is suitable for farming, many people will be vying to go there!"
Everyone nodded.
However, Ying Zheng didn't want Su Jinyue to bear this responsibility.
He tapped the table lightly and denied it. "The Imperial Master has a lot of things to do. Don't use her name for such trivial matters."
Everyone understood and stopped talking, moving on to other things.
"Why not just keep it as before, exempting people from taxes for three years and giving them more farming tools so they can open up wasteland?"
"We can also distribute some tricycles to facilitate the migration of the people."
The discussion resumed, and everyone spoke out and offered suggestions. Ying Zheng kept nodding his head, integrating everyone's opinions and quickly generating a feasible plan in his mind.
"We will follow your advice and issue a decree to all four directions to build several more passes to protect the northwest. You will each make your own arrangements for the specific matters."
"Yes, I will obey your orders."
Before Touman Chanyu died, the Qin Dynasty had already established a governance system for that land, and the candidates for the new county governor and county magistrates had been determined.
The government decrees were issued to all parts of Daqin at an extremely fast speed.
Families with large populations and limited land were all excited and began to pack their bags, preparing to set off for the Hetao area.
Landlords and gentry everywhere were anxious as they saw the dwindling number of tenants, but they had no choice but to grit their teeth, give up their previous life of luxury, and reduce rents.
Many domineering landlords also began to curb their arrogant behavior and stopped oppressing the people.
This kind of development has indirectly gained more living space for the people at the bottom of society.
After Su Jinyue found out, she praised her father for two quarters of an hour, using different words each time.
This made Ying Zheng laugh frequently and he gave him rewards repeatedly.
Countless golden cakes poured into the Yuehua Palace.
When the rebellion was on the rise, Ying Zheng directly ordered the Prime Minister to personally select four talented and handsome young men to enter the National Master's Mansion and serve as Shi Meilang, accompanying the National Master and relieving his worries.
