When I was in Qin Dynasty, I really didn't want to make progress

"Why are you looking at me?" Nong Yu looked at the people in front of her and had a bad premonition.

"Nongyu, go and take a peek, and then tell us." Caidie said eagerly. This is Sister Zinu's bridal chamber, how could they miss the opportunity to take a peek.

Yang Chong would take action against them, so could he also take action against Nanyue?

Then let Nongyu tell them what she saw, which will be almost the same as what they saw.

As for the question of whether it is appropriate for women to do such things, this is not within their consideration at all.

"Isn't this a bit too bad?" Compared to her vigorous sisters, Nong Yu was much more shy, but her eyes betrayed her. Although she said no, her eyes were full of eagerness to try.

But unlike these sisters, the sisters of Zilanxuan only wanted to peek into Zinu's secret, but what about Nongyu? She not only wanted to peek into Zinu's secret, but also Yang Chong's secret, but now their secrets belong to the same secret.

"What's wrong with that? Nanyue, you should also look at some things in advance. It would be bad if you don't know anything by the time the time comes." Hongyu bewitched. She had a very good relationship with Nanyue.

In the original storyline, Hong Yu was assassinated by Vulture because she lived in Nong Yu's room, which shows the deep feelings between the two.

Nanyue was eager to try it, but when Hongyu revealed her thoughts, she felt a little embarrassed and became hesitant in an instant.

Seeing this, Hong Yu also stuck out her tongue. She had realized that she had said the wrong thing. This was not a private conversation between the two of them where they could say anything. Now that everyone was watching, if she said these words, Nong Yu would be embarrassed to death. How could she dare to do what she wanted to do?

As the former housekeeper of Zilanxuan, Caidie glared at Hongyu and spoke without restraint. Whether they could know the secret in the room depended on Nongyu to investigate. If they scared Nongyu away, it would be impossible for them to get close to the room.

"Nongyu, don't listen to Hongyu's nonsense, go and take a look. We are all very curious about what Sister Zinu will look like. Just help us and go and take a look, and satisfy our curiosity." Caidie took Nongyu's hand and pinched her slender fingers in her hand. Compared to the stupid Hongyu, she was much more cunning.

There seem to be a lot of people in Zilanxuan, but there are actually only a few who can be entrusted with important tasks by Zinu, and Caidie is one of them.

Nanyue was already very curious, but after Hongyu said that, she felt embarrassed. When she heard Caidie say that, she wanted to back off, but she was a little hesitant as to whether she should continue to be reserved.

Caidie, who was smarter than Nanyue and Hongyu, saw through Nanyue's thoughts instantly. She knew that her sister was already moved, but just needed some spark to ignite the love completely, so she winked at the sisters beside her.

These people have lived together for many years and are as close as can be. They already know each other very well. At Caidie's signal, several sisters have surrounded Nongyu and are talking in a flurry of voices, saying similar things to Caidie.

Under the earnest expectations of her sisters, Nanyue could not bear to disappoint them, so she reluctantly accepted the advice of many sisters and tried to find out the secret in the room.

The moment Nanyue approached the window, she couldn't help but open her eyes wide and subconsciously covered her chest. What did she see?

"Nongyu, what did you see?"

Seeing this, Caidie quickly asked using lip language.

At this time, Nong Yu's eyes were wide open and two red clouds had appeared on her face.

She just felt her heart pounding. It was not until this moment that she understood something. She understood that the intimacy between her and Yang Chong before was nothing at all. Real intimacy was actually like this.

Nanyue's palms unconsciously left two deep, round indentations in front of her body.

She was as proud as Honglian, but the clothes she usually wore were loose, so her pride was not obvious. But at this moment, her heart was beating fast, and she exposed her true identity.

But how could that be possible? What on earth were they...

Nongyu was shocked and her thoughts were in chaos. For a moment, she had no time to respond to Caidie's inquiries.

"Isn't Sister Zi Nu in pain?" Nanyue whispered subconsciously.

"What hurts? Nongyu," Caidie asked again.

"Brother is biting Sister Zinu." In a trance, Nanyue remembered her mission and spoke to Caidie in lip language.

"Ha, bite?" Caidie couldn't help but open her mouth wide, and then she remembered Nanyue's special behavior just now. She understood instantly, and this time she could no longer suppress the smile on the corner of her mouth.

She could already imagine what kind of state Zi Nu was in now. Thinking that the usually steady and dignified sister Zi Nu would now be in such a posture, perhaps her brows were still tightly furrowed, and uncontrollably weak moans would occur between her mouth and nose, Cai Die could hardly suppress the corners of her mouth.

It turns out that Sister Zi Nu also has this moment!

In the following time, Nongyu observed and recounted the events to the sisters behind her, but as she was recounting, she could no longer speak.

Some things, knowing is one thing, and seeing them with your own eyes is completely different.

Nanyue was in a daze, and suddenly her waist went soft, and she fell to the ground softly. The faint moans of Zinu echoing in her ears gradually became clearer.

Sister Zi Nu, how could she do that?

Nanyue regretted it at this moment. She regretted her impulsiveness just now. She shouldn't have looked at it at all. Now, those pictures were firmly engraved in her mind.

Zi Nu's furrowed brows, lightly bitten lips, slightly wrinkled nose due to rapid breathing, trembling shoulders, shaking legs, and the waist that wanted to escape but couldn't help sticking to it, and the toes that were hooked up and then constantly loosened, and then hooked up and loosened again.

Nanyue really regretted it.

Chapter 195 Recruiting troops

Sister Zi Nu was captured, and this was known to the entire Yang family, but no one knew what happened to Nong Yu.

After seeing things she shouldn't have seen, Nanyue became a bad person. She hid in her room all day long and no one knew what she was busy with during her retreat. She needed to practice Fuxi Shentian Xiang more so that she could calm her mind completely.

This day, Zi Nu was truly mature as she calculated the remaining property and various expenses. She wrote furiously, and it was unknown how long she had been busy before she sorted out the accounts. Then she stretched her wrists, and her eyes inadvertently stopped on the brush in her hand. She didn't know what she was thinking of, but her face, which was a little sweaty because of the heater in the room, blushed again.

At this moment, Zi Nu only felt that the pen in her hand was a little hot, but she did not throw it away. Instead, she clenched it instinctively. As her thoughts drifted, she didn't know what she thought of. She suddenly threw the brush away, feeling dry mouth and tongue, which was so embarrassing.

"Oh, what did you think of? Is it..." Just when Zi Nu was feeling restless, Yan Lingji wrapped in a black cloak walked in from outside. There were still some snowflakes left on Yan Lingji's head. As for why this woman with the fire element did not melt the snowflakes on her head immediately, it was naturally because someone said that Yan Lingji looked more beautiful like this.

In order to show her best side, Yan Lingji accepted the man's advice.

"What is it?" Zi Nu asked, calming herself down, but the increasingly intense blush on her face betrayed her thoughts completely.

"It's installed already? Who hasn't held it yet?" Yan Lingji rolled her eyes at Zi Nu. She had obviously done everything, but now it was installed. She would want to see if she would install it the same way on the bed when the time comes.

"Didn't you go with him to recruit people? Why are you back?" Zi Nu, whose mind had calmed down, changed the subject.

Through Guo Kai, Yang Chong got the short list. In order to better implement his plan, Yang Chong has been busy recruiting people during this period. Yan Lingji is a restless person, so she naturally follows Yang Chong out every day in the past few days. But today she only went out for half a day and returned, which is far worse than yesterday.

"It's so boring. I thought he was recruiting some talented people, but I never expected that they were just a group of old guys who were already half buried in the ground. Well, in his words, they are veterans, but what's the use of veterans? Zhao State itself doesn't use those old guys, but he treats those people as treasures." Yan Lingji said with disdain.

What's the point of recruiting a group of people who can't even go to the battlefield? It's just a complete waste of money. In Yan Lingji's understanding, Yang Chong's behavior is unreasonable, at least she can't understand it.

"Veteran?" Zi Nu's heart moved when she heard this, and she couldn't help but think of something.

"Yes, they are in their forties or fifties, and some are even over fifty. They can't even lift a sword. Are these people really useful to us? Hey, you should persuade him too. He will listen to you in this kind of thing." Yan Lingji looked at Zi Nu with anticipation in her eyes.

She didn't understand many things, and couldn't convince Yang Chong, but Zi Nu was different. She knew a lot, and maybe she could convince Yang Chong.

"He is very smart, how could he do business that would lose money?" Zi Nu already understood the reason why Yang Chong did this. It was absolutely impossible for her to stop Yang Chong from doing this.

"It seems like I'm the only idiot?" Seeing Zi Nu's reaction, Yan Lingji realized that she was overthinking.

"People who know themselves are not stupid." Zi Nu said comforting words, but the nodding action showed her true thoughts.

When Yan Lingji saw Zi Nu's reaction, she gritted her teeth in hatred, but competing with others in a field that she was not good at was not a very smart behavior. Yan Lingji did not have much experience but she was still smart and would not be fooled.

Even if she really wanted to get back at Zi Nu, she would only do it in her own way instead of being led by Zi Nu. Yan Lingji had plenty of experience in fighting and quarreling.

"I'm just afraid that some people don't have self-awareness." Yan Lingji counterattacked. She had already decided that when Yang Chong stayed overnight in Zi Nu's room, she would definitely attack him at night. She would also suppress Zi Nu once and then see how Zi Nu would be tough in front of her in the future.

Zi Nu didn't know that she was in danger. She still thought that she had made Yan Lingji give up. It must be said that the women in Zi Lan Xuan were still too naive compared to Yan Lingji. Zi Nu had no idea how unrestrained and shameless Yan Lingji was in doing things.

The two women in the family were fighting openly and secretly, while Yang Chong was busy recruiting people.

In this era, although the military systems of various countries were similar, there were still differences. The Wei Wuzu of Wei was considered the first regular army in the Warring States Period. Unfortunately, with the decline of Wei's national strength, it was difficult to maintain the system of Wei Wuzu. Although the current Wei still has Wuzu, it is far inferior to the former Wei Wuzu.

The Qin State combined soldiers and farmers, and used the system of military merit to maximize the combat effectiveness of the army at the lowest cost. This is why, although the Qin army was not as elite as the Zhao and Wei armies in terms of top-level soldiers, its overall combat effectiveness was stronger than that of the Zhao and Wei armies.

As for the State of Chu? Forget it. It has no reference value.

As for Yang Chong? Even though he had Jibei County, he was still weak in the face of the huge Qi State. All he could do was to use the most time to build a strong army and use the victory of the war to pursue more things.

As for developing production and so on, it can only be considered after actually occupying Qi.

Yang Chong understood the reason why I repaired guns while my neighbors stockpiled food.

However, it is not so easy to form an army. It would take too long for Yang Chong to learn the Qin's farming and warfare system, and what he lacks most is time. So the best thing for him to do now is to build an army similar to the Wei Wuzu. He does not seek quantity, but quality. Then, with the elite as the core, he would build a large army by imitating the Fubing system.

As a military system of later generations, the Fubing System may not be the best, but it has one advantage, that is, the organization is systematic, simpler and more efficient, which is exactly what Yang Chong needs.

However, before that, some experienced veterans need to be recruited as instructors. Yang Chong is well aware of the importance of lower-level officers in an army.

But real elites are treasures in any country. It may not be easy for Yang Chong to recruit enough talents in Zhao State, so he can only find another way and recruit from the veteran group of Zhao State.

Veterans are worthless and are no longer capable of fighting, but their experience is very useful.

These are the people Yang Chong wants to recruit right now. As for how he finds them, with Guo Kai's help, it will be an easy task. Yang Chong's money is not wasted in vain.

With the help of Guo Kai's retainers in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yang Chong recruited three hundred veterans between the ages of 45 and 55 in ten days. This was the only number he could recruit.

Although the population of Zhao State was in the millions, there were very few veterans in their forties and fifties. The reason? Of course, it was because of the Battle of Changping.

The Battle of Changping took place more than 20 years ago, and almost all the young and middle-aged people in Zhao State were killed by the Qin army. Later, Zhao State experienced the Battle of Handan, which almost wiped out a generation of people.

"I was able to recruit these people so smoothly today, all thanks to the help of the Prime Minister." In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yang Chong thanked Guo Kai.

"Mr. Yang will understand. I am a very good partner. Although I like money, I am the most trustworthy." Guo Kai responded.

Helping Yang Chong recruit people was just a matter of convenience for him, he didn't even need to show up, he just needed to send a few officials. Now he was busy with another thing, busy helping the Qin envoy Dun Ruo persuade King Zhao Yan to form an alliance with Qin. However, although the Qin envoy was very generous to him, he was very harsh to Zhao.

King Yan of Zhao might not have figured out the price of the five cities, because it was not just about the five cities, it was also a matter of face. Coincidentally, King Yan of Zhao cared most about face.

"If I didn't trust the Prime Minister's character, I wouldn't have gone to see him as soon as I arrived in Handan." Yang Chong said this sincerely.

A gentleman has his uses, and a villain has his uses. Guo Kai is a useful villain to Yang Chong. In Yang Chong's eyes, Guo Kai, a useful villain, is more popular with him than a useless gentleman.

"After County Magistrate Yang arrives in Jibei County, we will have more opportunities to cooperate. I am very interested in participating in such a big event as planning for a country." Guo Kai said. He knew how big Qi's fortune was. If he could get a piece of it, he would definitely become rich. After all, Qi was really too rich.

Not to mention anything else, Linzi alone has a population of 500,000. Even Xianyang of Qin cannot compare to such a capital.

"I will have to rely on the Prime Minister in the future." Yang Chong replied sincerely.

Yang Chong needed the war horses and leather in the northern border of Zhao State. These were indispensable materials for forming an army. If Yang Chong wanted to obtain these things smoothly, he could not do without Guo Kai's help.

There are also military equipment, but Yang Chong already has a suitable partner in this area.

South Korea's military equipment is world-class.

"Easy to say, easy to say."

……

After Yang Chong stayed in Handan for another half a month, in addition to recruiting people, he also recruited a lot of craftsmen. Together with those brought from Korea, when he left Handan, the caravan around him had nearly two thousand people, and they were heading towards Raoan City in a mighty manner. There, Yang Chong would reintegrate the power of Jibei County and use the land of one county to seek to seize Qi State.

It was snowing when Yang Chong entered Handan, and it was snowing even harder when he left Handan. The journey was tiring in the wind and snow, but fortunately the future was bright.

Raoan City is a large city with a population of tens of thousands. Moreover, because it is located on a plain, the city is well maintained. However, because Qi State did not maintain its military equipment for many years, the city walls were damaged by wind and sun. After Zhao State captured this place, the damage became even worse, and Zhao State did not repair it. After all, Zhao State was very poor. To some extent, Zhao State was the poorest among the seven countries, even worse than Yan State.

At this time in Raoan City, the sign of a tavern was fluttering in the cold wind, and the shouting of drinkers could be heard from the tavern from time to time.

A young girl was lying on the counter, pretending not to hear the noise that filled her ears.

She has a soft face and a slender figure. Although she does not give people a stunning feeling, she has the temperament of a beautiful girl next door, which makes the customers in the store miss her from time to time.

If the girl's mother, the proprietress of the tavern, had not been so fierce, they might have said something teasing.

However, even though they dare not say it, it does not mean that they dare not peek.

"Ms. Jiang, what are you thinking about?" While the girl was distracted, a big hand slapped in front of her. It was the girl's mother, the proprietress of this tavern.

"I wasn't thinking anything." Jiang Nu suddenly came back to her senses and met her mother's gaze, but she felt a little guilty. She had not been working well recently and often made mistakes in calculations. She just hoped that she didn't make any mistakes today.

I should, probably, maybe, have calculated correctly today, right?

"You have already received the letter. There are only a few days left. Can't you wait?" Jiang Meng looked at her daughter in front of her. She had no idea what she was thinking.

Jiang Meng was quite helpless about this. Her daughter had grown up and understood a lot of things. As a mother, she couldn't say much, even to the person Jiang Nu was thinking of.

Because he is the young master of their family!

Thinking of this, Jiang Meng also felt a little pressured, because she knew the true identity of her young master and was always worried that she would be suspected of being silenced, but the entanglement between them had long been unclear, so there was no possibility for them to stay out of it.

He shouldn't be that kind of person. Jiang Meng could only say this to herself in her heart.

"I haven't seen him for almost three years. I don't know how he is doing. Does he still remember me?" Jiang Nu said resentfully.

Three years is indeed not a long time. In this era, it is only one twentieth of a person's life. But three years is too long for a girl who is not even twenty years old. It is one sixth of her life.

This tavern was opened by Jiangnu's family. On that day, they parted ways with Yang Chong in Xiliu Village. Yang Chong continued to stay in Han State, while they came to Raoan and secretly gathered people from the six tribes of Yan Emperor to gather here, waiting for Yang Chong to come from Han State.

In the past nearly three years, they have contacted many people, but some of them have disappeared, some are terrified by their appearance, and they have even been betrayed. They have not had an easy life in these three years.

However, they still gathered a lot of people.

Chapter 196 The Six Divisions of Emperor Yan

The Six Tribes of Emperor Yan were the power with the longest inheritance. Even though they had long since declined and been replaced by the farmers, as the saying goes, a centipede is still alive even after its death, and there are still some traditions left behind.

With the incorporation of Raoan City into the State of Zhao, they have more room for activities. Hundreds of people have gathered during this period of time. These people may not be strong in martial arts, but as descendants of the six tribes of Emperor Yan, each of them has his own heritage. Some study medicine, some do farming, some do forging, and some do water conservancy. It can be said that they are involved in all walks of life, and they are all the best in their respective industries.

It’s just that those people’s martial arts skills seem a little too weak, and they are not the kind of people who can conquer the world at all.
