The Empress came ashore and beheaded the meritorious officials, forcing me to wear the yellow robe

"Let's eat! We need to eat!"

"Let's eat, hurry up! What the hell is going on? Our general said that there's food here!"

"How did Li Jize become someone else's son? How did he become the King of Qin? They said we should have enough food to eat, but where is the food?"

On the open space of the military farm.

Originally, this place was used to dry various grains after the autumn harvest, and the soldiers brought by Li Jin were all standing here and shouting excitedly.

They were so hungry! They had thought they would have food after entering, but they hadn't expected to be told to come here. After walking such a long way, they still hadn't seen any food.

How to prevent them from getting angry?

Some people even shouted that if these people didn't give them food, they might as well rob them! They saw that there seemed to be several villages nearby. It was now dinner time. The smoke from the cooking stoves rose and they could occasionally smell the fragrance of rice.

People are going crazy with hunger and poverty! What can’t they do?

Isn’t this how rebellious armies arise?

Besides, Li Jize had promised to provide them with food. Even if they went to rob, it was because they were forced to do so by the King of Qin's men!

This is not...

There were actually a few leaders among the soldiers. After looking at each other, they decided to raise their arms and lead everyone to rob the farmers.

But at this moment...

"One, two, one! One, two, one! One, two, three, four!"

"one two three four!"

A loud shout was heard, and the "Jin Army" who were starving and ready to rob became panicked.

Why?

From both sides, we saw a large number of soldiers marching in uniform steps towards this side.

"What...what's going on?"

"What are they going to do? Why are there troops here?"

The Jin army was all in a panic because this situation reminded them of a very, very terrible possibility.

They tricked so many of them into gathering here, and then sent out troops to surround them. Would they be killed the next moment?

"Brother, I don't want to die! Why are they trying to kill us?"

"You beast! Li Jize has no king or father. Could he really do such a heartless thing?"

"We don't want to eat! We don't want to eat this meal, let us go!"

They were already on someone else's territory, and were so hungry that they felt weak in the arms and legs. Now, seeing the majestic and orderly Qin army formations surrounding them from both sides, they were really panicked!

What robbery? What full meals?

They don’t want to think about anything now, they just want to be able to get out of Qingzhou alive!

"Attention! At ease!"

The Qin soldiers formed a circle, and their leader shouted, "Let's welcome our new colleagues! Applause!"

clap clap clap!clap clap clap!

"Welcome, welcome, warm welcome!"

Ah this...

All the Jin troops were confused. What was going on?

Why don't they kill us? Why don't they give us food?

At this time, the chief secretary Chen Yingyuan stepped forward. He set up a platform in front of him and held a "trumpet" made of a paper tube in his hand.

"Everyone, you are all soldiers who have come from far away, but I have regulations in Qingzhou! How much tax is paid and how much military pay is paid are clearly defined! If I want to approve your meals, the procedure is too complicated!"

What he meant was that although the King of Qin said he would take care of your food, the money and grain still had to be approved by the Qin army warehouse.

By the time the approval comes, you will probably starve to death!

The Jin soldiers were angry but dared not speak. What nonsense were they talking about? You just don't want to give them a meal? Why do you do this?

But the next moment, Chen Yingyuan changed the subject and pointed to the surrounding Qin soldiers, saying, "They are all children of farmers nearby. Let's find a compromise! Everyone, each of you will take one person to eat for the meal. Let's go eat first! After we finish eating the farmers' meal, I guess they will have approved it, so there's no need to rush later."

Hey! Chen Ying-yuan is awesome!

I explained to them earlier that our finances are very strict and every penny must be approved! Even if it is an order from the King of Qin.

I'll stir up hatred for you first, and then announce a compromise plan. You can go to the Qin soldiers' homes for dinner first.

What else can the Jin army brothers say? Just having something to eat is enough! Let's deal with this meal first, otherwise they will starve to death.

So, each Qin soldier led a Jin soldier to his home for dinner.

It's that simple...

Chen Yingyuan bent their "faith" into being gay!

Just look, a Jin soldier followed a Qin soldier home, and when he passed by a paddy field, he found his father plowing the land!

The Qin soldier called my father and said that his superiors asked him to bring a brother home for dinner today, so he should go back first.

When my father saw that guests were coming, he quickly put down the plow, tied the cow directly to the side of the road to eat grass, washed his feet and left.

The Jin soldiers were stunned and whispered to him, "Why don't you take the cattle back? If you lose them, I'm afraid the landlord will blame you!"

This one sentence made Qin Jun's brothers and his son burst into laughter.

Why laugh?

The reason is simple, because the cows and the land do not belong to the landlord! They are mine!

Wow, the Jin army soldiers were stunned. They didn’t expect that you, brother, are the son of a landlord?

The result made the father and son laugh again. What landlord's son? They were not! To be precise, every household was a landlord, their own landlord.

What's going on?

So, after the King of Qin landed in Qingzhou and seized the land, he directly abolished the local military farms by force and distributed them to the local farmers.

The land! It's not yours, it belongs to the King of Qin! No one is allowed to buy or sell it.

You only have the right to use, not the right to trade.

Not only was land allocated to every household, but also oxen were allocated. But where did the oxen come from?

You'll have to ask your poor barbarian brothers!

Anyway, every household has land and cows, so there is no need for people to steal your cows.

At first, the Jin army soldier thought that the father and son were bragging and were performing for him. But after he went to their home, he was shocked!

The corn, peppers and old pumpkins hanging on the door show that the family lives a rich life and has food reserves.

As for the food, it surprised him even more!

Not only rice, but also some meat...

God knows how much he ate during this meal. After he finished eating, Qin Jun's brothers and their family urged him to eat slower and add more if it was not enough.

But as he was eating, he couldn't eat anymore and he burst into tears.

Ask why?

One is for the hard life I lead in the mountains, and the other is for my family who may not even have a bowl of bran to eat at this moment!

In this day and age, good men don’t serve in the military, and good iron is not used to make nails.

If his family wasn't poor and he had nowhere else to go, why would he join the army?

But since they were all soldiers, why were the Qin King's soldiers well-off, able to eat rice, meat, and be given land and cattle?

He suddenly felt that the personal charm of his general Li Jin had plummeted, and he also suddenly felt that the loyalty to the emperor and patriotism instilled by the general was bullshit!

I love my monarch and my country, but they don't love me!

If you love me, why am I in such a miserable state? If you love me, why is my family like this?

I tried my best to protect you, but what did I get?
