"Is my term of office in my third year?" Shang Wen asked Yingyu at this time.

"En. What's the matter?" Yingyu asked at this time.

"Oh. I think the next prime minister's election will be much more intense." Shang Wen said at this time.

"Yes." Yingyu said at this time.

"So fast. Your four-year prime ministerial position is less than a year away." This time. Ying Yu asked.

"En." Shang Wen said at this time.

"Are you interested in continuing to serve as the next prime minister?" At this time. Ying Yu asked.

"Oh. Me." Shang Wen shook his head at this time.

"Not interested?" Yingyu asked while driving.

"I. I don't know." Shang Wen waved his hand and said at this time.

"I don't know. Really." Shang Wen said at this time.

"The responsibility of serving as the prime minister is too great. I feel a little overwhelmed. Moreover, in the future. I really don't have the confidence to continue to serve. Too tired." Shang Wen said at this time looking at the scenery outside the window.

"I feel that you are a little tired now." Yingyu said at this time.

And Shang Wen looked at the scenery outside the window and did not speak. Ying Yu drove the car silently. Shang Wen doesn't know where the future is. Qin is currently facing many problems. Moreover, in the future, internal and external problems need to be cleared up to move forward.

On the surface, Qin is very big. advanced. But in fact, the Qin State was unable to carry on the Qin State Unification War. There are many factors that counterbalance the unification of the Qin State. The situation in the north attracted most of Qin's troops. At the same time, a developed economy does not require Qin's huge military expenditure. Because military spending is too much, it will suppress economic development. That kind of development is too singular, and Shang Wen least wants to see it.

In addition to defense factors. Qin's capital export also does not want Qin's rapid reunification. Everyone knows that war will happen. Qin's economic taxes will increase very high. This is definitely not a good thing for the economy. Shangwen's "May Tax Case" suppressed the variability of taxation.

This tax case will stabilize Qin's taxation. Moreover, Qin’s taxes are the lowest among the six countries. It is precisely because of the lowest taxation situation. As a result, the State of Qin could not support a larger war. The government's revenue and expenditure are extremely unbalanced. Qin State spends a lot of money. Need to spend everywhere. In desperation, Qin continued to issue bonds. And on the other side. Low taxes greatly stimulated the development of Qin's economy. But at the same time, Qin was in a state of unbalanced income and expenditure. Moreover, this state will be maintained for a long time. This time is the time when the tax case is annulled.

"Grab them." Just as Yingyu and Shang Wen drove down the mountain. A company of Qin Jun on the mountain is also struggling to arrest the Mo family.

"They are ahead. Chase." At this time, a platoon leader said loudly. He commanded his men to move forward quickly.

"Bang." A soldier shot.

"Finished. Hit," the platoon leader said.

"Just in front. Look, the black clothes in front." This time. A soldier said loudly.

"Shoot." The platoon leader shouted immediately.

"Bang. Bang." The sound of shooting came immediately.

"We hit them." This time. A soldier shouted.

"Go ahead and grab them. See if they are dead." The platoon leader waved.

As the two soldiers stepped forward, they raised their rifles and aimed forward. Then slowly approached.

"A few more people. Cover them." The platoon leader waved and said at this time. Then he brought a few people forward and approached constantly.

The Qin army that had been searched separately broke apart again. A company is divided into three battle groups. The three battle groups were separated by a certain distance.

A soldier from the Qin Army raised his rifle and kept approaching.

He wants to cover the safety of the flanks. But he values ​​the situation ahead too much.

"Puff." Just when the soldier passed a big tree. A flash of lightning flew quickly. Then came the sound of blood jets.

The soldier's neck was cut off by a sharp sword. The soldier fell to the ground with a plop and died.

"What sound." At this moment, a soldier not far in front shouted loudly.

"Someone." At this time, the soldier saw a white shadow disappearing into the woods instantly.

"Bang." The soldier shot subconsciously, but the woods were too dense. The bullet was blocked by the tree trunk.

"What's the situation?" This time. The platoon leader in front shouted loudly at this time.

"Boom boom boom". At this time, his subordinates consciously shot. But the intense gunfire concealed the killing on the other end.

"Puff. Puff." The necks of two more soldiers were cut by sharp swords at this time.

"Stop shooting." This time. The platoon leader shouted loudly.

"Stop shooting. Stop shooting." The platoon leader ordered severely. His men stopped shooting at this time. The dense jungle makes the platoon leader feel a little bad.

"Damn it. We have two more soldiers down." This time. A corporal said loudly. The corporal looked back at this moment, and the two soldiers behind him were already lying on the ground. Blood has been sprayed all over the place. It's all on the tree.

"Damn it." The platoon leader said with a glance at this time.

"What to do?" This time. The corporal on the side asked.

"I don't know. We have to withdraw from this area. We are in the light and they are in the dark. It is too bad for us." At this time, the platoon leader hesitated. Then the people who waved their hands retreated.

"Everyone is careful about the surrounding situation." This time. Said the platoon leader.

"We retreat immediately." The platoon leader said. He believes that it is no longer possible to stay like this at present. If this continues, problems will definitely arise. The platoon leader thought.

"Then what do they do?" the corporal asked at this time.

"No way?" said the platoon leader.

"We can only carry them back. This is the only way. If we stay here, we will all be killed." The platoon leader said.

"But, in this case, we will accept a military trial." At this time, a second-class soldier asked scaredly.

"Stay, we will die even worse. Clean up, retreat, don't hesitate." At this time. Said the platoon leader.

"Everyone is careful to prevent the other party from attacking us." This time. Said the platoon leader.

"Yes, sir." The soldiers covered each other, and they looked around. Then he retreated carefully.

"Wow!" Just after the Qin army retreated. A woman in white and a man in black jumped from the tree.

"These Qin dogs finally left." The woman in white said.

"Huh." And the black man at this time. Take a breath to express relaxation.

"Oh, brother. You are hurt." This time. The woman in white said in surprise. At this time, the arm of the man in black kept dripping blood.

"It's okay, it's just scratched a bit. I didn't expect it." The man hadn't finished speaking yet. The woman in white just "stabbed it." She tore off a piece of white yarn. Bandage the man's wound. And the man just shook his head. Then he lowered his head silently. But the black man smiled happily. The smile is so subtle.

And in the east. Linzi city fell into despair, death, and fear.

"Burn. Burn it all for me. Quickly." At this time, a small rioter directed his subordinates to set fire to all the burnable houses in Linzi City.

"Burn." The head roared loudly from time to time.

"Cracking." The wood-structured houses that had been burnt in the fire crackled.

And more riots of Qi people also participated. The fire not only burned the tall buildings in Linzi, but also ignited the thatched huts of some folk houses. The fire instantly formed a tendency to spread.

The thugs did everything in Linzi City, and they robbed everything they could in a short period of half a month. But some places could not be opened, that is, ministers, nobles, and some of the wealthy areas where merchants lived could not be approached. Because of the intensive musket and artillery shooting there, they could not get close. There is also the royal palace. It is heavily guarded there. The mobs are too scattered. It is difficult for them to gather and attack at once. After all, they are still a mob, they have not been trained in an orderly manner. It is difficult to become an elite teacher.

"Head, the fire is burning. What should we do next?" At this moment, a little boss with a white bandage on his head came over and asked with a flintlock on his back.

There was blood under his white bandage. The wound was not injured in battle, but was bitten by a woman when he was playing with a woman. A bite of his meat was also bitten off. And that woman was naturally tortured to death by him. Such things happen every day in Linzi City. Such things are not new anymore.

"Burn, we are going to burn the fire to the noble area over there, and then we will take advantage of the chaos and kill in." said the head.

"Smart." The little boss said loudly at this time.

"Huh." This time. Said with disdain.

"I don't believe it, those nobles are not afraid of fire." This time. Said the head.

"Continue to add fire. Give me the big houses of those nobles. Let them burn me a little. Then we will attack. What's inside, you can take whatever you want, and you can play whatever you want." said the head.

The things in the residential areas of the city were taken away by these thugs. All that can be played. Now they finally moved the target to those noble areas. They believe that the most important place in Linzi City is the area where the rich and nobles live.

In fact, it is true. The law of 28 is always followed in the world. Twenty percent of people hold 80 percent of the wealth of a country or region. In the Linzi City of Qi State, the area where the rich lived accounted for 80% of the entire Linzi City's wealth. As long as that area is captured, the mobs can enjoy endless wealth.

"It's not good. Lord. It's not good. The thugs are starting to set fire to the city." At this time, a private soldier broke in loudly and reported it to a nobleman.

"Quickly. Organize people and put out the fire. Don't let those big fires come here. Quickly." The nobleman shouted loudly at this time. For a time, under the orders of the nobles. The private soldiers were in a panic.

And in the Qi Palace. After hearing the mob set fire to the city. King Qi urged to send someone. Ask the army to return immediately to quell the rebellion. Otherwise, the entire Qi State will be insecure.

"Quickly, don't care about the number of people. The widows are killing you. Send people immediately. Send more people. Ask Tian Heng to bring the soldiers to the meeting. Send these thugs to the widows out of Linzi City." King Qi shouted in panic. The scorching smell of the fire outside the king's city drifted everywhere in the hall, and King Qi smelled it. Finally felt a trace of tension. He was too scared. I was scared and didn't know how to do it.

Under the loud scolding of King Qi. Qi Jun had to send another manpower to inform Tian Heng's army to immediately go south and return to Qi. Put down the rebellion in Linzi. And other places in Qi State. At this time, he did not take the initiative to send troops. They just waited quietly.

The two armies of Qi and Zhao in the north are negotiating intensely.

"I didn't expect it. Qi's commander-in-chief is so young." Li Mu said with a smile at this time. Then sat down unceremoniously.

And Tian Heng, as the top military commander of the Qi army, looked at this legendary general. He has heard a lot about Li Mu's deeds. Also know. The opponent is a powerful warrior. Even Qin's Wang Jian was unable to defeat his opponent. If not relying on Qin's huge combat power. It just suppressed the other party. But not much substantial progress has been made.

"General Li is indeed well-deserved." This time. Tian Heng stood and said.

"En. Thank you for the compliment. Sit down." Li Mu had already sat down and said.

And Tian Heng sat down silently at this time.

"I made a special trip here to clean up the tragedy." Li Mu said at this time.

"Zhao Jun is no longer able to fight. We need to stop the war." Li Mu said frankly at this time. This is a standard military character. Not like politicians and diplomats who deliberately conceal something.

"Our Qi country is too." Tian Heng said at this time.

"Linzi of our Qi country is under siege by the rebels. We need to get out immediately. Then we will go south to fight quickly." At this time. Tian Heng said.

"But we don't want to be consumed like this. We need to get out as soon as possible." Tian Heng also said directly.

"That's why we can sit down and have a good talk." Li Mu said at this time.

"However, the conditions you made are very unacceptable to us." Tian Heng deliberately added the word "very." at this time.

"We just need a sum of withdrawal expenses. We also have casualties. There are also a lot of material losses. Fighting, it is inevitable that we have to retreat without any loss, so that we will be more honorable." Li Mu said at this time.

"But we can't come up with the money." Tian Heng cried poorly at this time. He hoped that this could be exchanged for Li Mu's sympathy. At the same time, it can also occupy some favorable positions on the negotiating table.

"You can borrow it." This time. Li Mu gave Tian Heng an idea.

And Tian Heng felt a little in his heart at this time. I didn't expect Li Mu to speak directly. Before he came, Li Mu had thought about how to persuade the people of Qi to retreat.

"Yes. Now our country is also borrowing money. Get our country's economy." Li Mu said at this time.

"This is normal. It is also very common. Our country borrows money from the people of Qin. It also borrows money from Koreans. At present, it seems that only these two countries can borrow money." Li Mu said by himself at this time.

"Qin people are very difficult to borrow, their interest is high. And they can get back their money at any time. Although their interest is a single interest. And the amount of funds is very large. But they use paper money, that kind of thing, I Not very optimistic." Li Mu said at this time.

Tian Heng looked at Li Mu with strange eyes. Li Mu didn't look at Tian Heng at all. I don't care whether the other party listens or not.

"Of course. You can't borrow Qin's money either." At this time. Li Mu said.

"You and Qin Guo have personal grievances. I can't manage these things." Li Mu said directly.

"Of course. You don't need to borrow money from the people of Qin. Then the Koreans will be left behind." At this time, Li Mu analyzed for Tian Heng.

And Tian Heng patience sounded at this time.

"The Koreans are good. The Koreans use gold coins, real gold. Moreover, they seem to have used silver recently. There is no way, we Zhao Guo needs these things too much." At this time. Li Mu said frankly.

Tian Heng is not interested in these at all.

"We do not plan to give you this money, we have no money, and will not lend you money." This time. Tian Heng brought the topic back directly.

"Haha." Li Mu smiled slightly.

"I don't know what General Li laughed at?" This time. Tian Heng said with a sigh of relief.

"But I can't control these." Tian Heng said.

"Qi has no money for you. We will not give you this money." Tian Heng turned the conversation around and said.

"Oh." Li Mu said.

"If you don't get rid of us, it will be difficult for you to fight south," Li Mu said at this time.

"Also, we have an army of cavalry garrisoned by the river. You must pass there." At this time. Li Mu said.

"Pop." This time. Tian Heng stood up. He patted the table and said.

"We can wipe out your five thousand people." Tian Heng said with a twitching face.

"Really?" Li Mu asked rhetorically at this time.

"You can spend a lot of money or a long time to deal with our five thousand people, but you have to think about it. How many people and time are you wasting. Especially time. If I were you, There is not enough time for you to wipe out our five thousand people." Li Mu said at this time.

"I forgot to explain one thing." This time. Li Mu said.

"We have a cavalry force garrisoned there. They are elite troops. They can fight to the end." This time. Li Mu said.

"In addition, the people of Qin are also watching the development of the war. They don't want our two families to end the battle too soon. Especially the longer the war drags on, the better. We, Zhao Guo, are not a big deal?" At this time. Li Mu said.

"That's right, you Qi country. The situation doesn't seem to be much better than our Zhao country. You have a rebellion in Linzi now. Is it possible that your king will be killed after you. Will you go back?" Li Mu questioned at this time.

"I don't think you will." Li Mu said at this time. Tian Heng wanted to defend, but was forced to hold back.

"Think of this. The people of Qin will help us. I have already called General Wang Jian of Qin." Li Mu said.

"You said, how would he answer my request." This time. Li Mu said.

"I ask them to send us airpower before entering the war, and let them use airships to transport weapons and ammunition. Logistics materials, as well as soldiers who can deliver us. At the same time, a large number of weapons can be transported to the front. We have soldiers." This time . Li Mu said.

"As long as you are willing to fight, we can go on at any time. We don't care. It's nothing more than that there are some problems in our country." At this time. Li Mu said indifferently.

Tian Heng's face twitched. He tried his best to suppress his inner anger. After listening to Li Mu's remarks.

"We may not destroy you, but we can get rid of you." This time. Tian Heng retreated and said next.

"This, I don't think it's possible for you." At this moment Li Mu said, shaking his head.

"We want to retreat, but if we don’t get the money, we will bite you tightly, and you will not be able to withdraw all at once. You know, as soon as you retreat, we will step forward and bite. Then you will retreat, and there will be a big retreat. A big defeat happened." This time. Li Mu said.

"So, it's not sensible to decide things like this." Li Mu said looking at Tian Heng.

"Okay. We agreed to indemnify. But we can only give 80,000 gold. This is all the money we can gather at the moment." At this time. Tian Heng said.

Li Mu looked at Tian Heng and shook his head.

"No, only two hundred thousand." Li Mu said.

"To be honest, we don't want much. You know?" Li Mu said at this time.

"If it were from Qin, they would want more." Li Mu said at this time.

"What we want is only the cost price, and, as I have already said. You can ask Koreans to borrow money. They are happy to give it to you." At this time. Li Mu said with a smile. It is clear. Tian Heng had already lost all the momentum at this time, and he was passive. Completely passive.

"We have made the last effort. If we change another person, it is estimated that it will cost half a million gold, which is possible." This time. Li Mu said.

"Okay." This time. Tian Heng reluctantly agreed.

"We give two hundred thousand gold. But you must retreat as soon as possible. At the same time, we need a certain amount of ammunition and you have to provide it to us." At this time. Tian Heng said.

"En. We will provide you with 20,000 bullets." This time. Li Mu said.

"Okay. We will borrow money from Koreans." Tian Heng said.

"This money is given to you by us." At this time, Tian Heng said.

"En. Of course." Li Mu said with a smile at this time.

At the last moment. Qi Guo also wants to preserve his last face.
