The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 716: The source of Guo Kai's votes

The reason why Guo Kai has such a large number of votes is not because Guo Kai's election policies are good, nor is it the effect of Guo Kai's efforts to promote. But money played a big role.

Guo Kai also saw that the propaganda war had no effect at all. Because this is not Qin State, Qin State was opposed to bribery elections from the beginning, and the elections were held in an open and transparent manner. This kind of election requires the electors to have a certain level of media propaganda skills and speech skills, and to control themselves. The views are fully publicized. Only in this way can more people be attracted to vote.

Moreover, the starting point of King Qin was to check and balance the power of the prime minister. Therefore, the prime minister must be fully elected in a fair and transparent state. And the people who voted were from Qin. This requires voters to be able to grasp the voters' psychology and needs for propaganda. Under this kind of election system, it is necessary to show a person's personality charm, which includes a person's character and a good first impression. The reason why Shangwen was able to win the first election was that, in addition to his opponents and the media's publicity offensive, the most important thing was that he was able to show his personal charm. This point needs to impress the people of Qin. Especially the support of Qin people as voters.

But Zhao Guo did not have this. Although Zhao Guo learned the electoral system, he did not learn the essence, because Zhao Guo one-sidedly believed that election is to show his own explanation, view the idea of ​​governing the country, and so on. These are like opening a shop and selling things on the street. Cry out loud. But the actual situation has changed drastically. This change is. It seems that people are not very interested in this kind of stuff. Even those who are interested will not choose blindly. And everyone is qualified. What the electors have to do is to make these people vote for themselves.

How to vote for yourself. Qin's bankers supported Guo Kai's large-scale publicity in newspapers. But this trick is still useful in Qin. Because no one dares to use money. But it failed in Zhao State. When the results were not great, Zhao Ren thought of another shortcut. This shortcut is. Spend money to buy the votes from those people. And this trick works very well.

"Come on. Free Handan one-day tour, not only to play, but also to send things." A domestic slave from Guo's mansion shouted loudly. In order to let more people hear their voices. They even imported a microphone amplifier from Qin State. This is a carriage specially pulled. Half of it is equipped with batteries. There is also a carriage behind to transport batteries. In order to be able to win votes and hype. And behind the carriage there is a team of carriages. There are free carriages. There are also a large number of carriages loaded with goods.

"Give me something." An old grandma asked as loudly as possible.

"What to give? There are too many things to give. There are noodles, rice, and oil." The slave shouted. This immediately attracted people from the villages near Handan. These things are all necessities of life for them. These necessities can allow them to live a good life for a period of time. I heard that there is something to send. The people of Murakami began to gather around.

"Is this a gift?" the villager asked uncertainly.

"Send. Definitely." The slave said loudly.

"We will not only send you, but also send you to Handan. As long as you vote for our adult in your hand. This thing is yours." The slave pointed his finger at the carriage behind. The carriages are all vans. And there are leather sofas inside. This is equivalent to Zhao Guo's luxury car. This kind of treatment shocked the people in these villages.

"Huh, go to Handan. Which one to use?" the villager asked uncertainly.

"Yes, just use that." The slave said with certainty.

"We will send you to Handan for free. Then you will go to Handan to vote in a carriage. After voting, we will let you turn around and then pull you back. How about?" The slave said with a smile.

"You won't be a trafficker?" The people in the village felt that there could be such good things in the world.

"Look at what you said. The reputation of our grown-ups is there. And there are many of you. You can go." Anyway, they feel safe with more people, and the more votes they can get. Because these people are willing to trade things. The most important thing is that they don't know words and are not interested in politics.

"Are you going?" one woman asked the other woman.

"Let's take a look. My child hasn't been to Handan yet. I heard that Handan is quite big." The woman said encouragingly.

"I have never been in such a good carriage. Go, let's go and see." So the two women encouraged each other. He got a bag of flour, a bag of rice, and a can of Qin Guo sesame oil from the slave. This is the best oil.

I saw that the two women and their children really got the rice noodle oil, and they were able to get on a good car to Handan. All of them started to sign up desperately, and they reached out for noodles, rice, and oil.

In this way, Zhao Guo's ballots completed the so-called election. These people were pulled into Handan in batches. After voting, they circled the city of Handan, and then pulled back to the original place, but these people didn't know what they were doing. Some of them don't even know about the election of the prime minister. I only knew that when I arrived at a place, I asked for a name, then pressed a handprint, and then drew a hook on a piece of white paper, and that's it. Then they saw the prosperity of Handan. How the people in the city live, they have nothing but envy. But their children started to have new dreams. In their childhood memories. The life in the city is far better than the life in their village. Guo Kai did not know that under the unintentional act of bribing the election, the children of Zhao Guo began to have the idea of ​​going to the city, and they also had a city dream. . In their view, the city is a sharply alluring place.

However, Zhao's election vote was completed under such circumstances. Nearby villages are all being drawn into the city to vote. For Handan City, they took another approach. That is to buy directly with money. One vote, one and a half. The price then rose to two and a half. But Guo Kai made the money because Qin's bankers could make a big loan to Guo Kai, who was elected as the prime minister of Zhao.

In order to increase the votes in the containment of Handan. Guo Kai snatched a large number of unemployed street gangsters. They used a series of illegal methods such as tricking, threatening, paying for employment, forging false names and other illegal methods to obtain a large number of votes.

Through this method, it is difficult for Guo Kai to think improperly. Moreover, the Zhao people in Handan have a weak sense of participation in politics. Their main mental power is to make money, and for other Zhao people, especially in remote mining areas, it takes many days to come to Handan. Calculated according to the voting time of the election, they don't have much time at all, because the newspapers that spread the news were cut off by the newspapers of Qin and Zhao. Or he sold Guo Kai directly. This is the way to use it. Guo Kai became the prime minister of Zhao Guo's preliminary election.

Just as the election of Prime Minister Zhao Guo became more and more clear. The situation in Yan State is very bad. And it's very bad.

"Qi army captured a large number of Yan army soldiers, but they are not interested in the captives at all. They are still advancing fast. It seems that their target is Yandu. And the Liaodong of Yan State. There are Qin State supporting production there. Iron mining area." A Qin State Military Observer Group reported.

After receiving the report, Qin's military had been mentally prepared for this. However, it is not the time to send troops, because the Yan army has not yet formed a defensive line that can withstand the rapid offensive of the Qi army. As it entered late autumn, frost has appeared on some ground. In this case, trench digging is not suitable, of course, it can be digging, mainly because of labor.

But Qin's military believes that even with such fortifications, it would be difficult to do anything. Thinking about it, this is simply impossible, because there is no resisting force in Yan's country. This question is the most critical.

"Even if there is a natural barrier like Qin State Hangu Pass, I am afraid it is impossible to complete such a defense. The defense does not rely on natural barriers, but people. They are people." Wang Jian said deeply.

So the staff nodded in approval. This is the biggest problem for the Yan Kingdom at present. They lack the necessary people to defend their country. Especially they need a decent and combative force, but this type of force does not exist.

The only combat unit in Yan State that retains a division, the equipment of this unit has become backward. And there is a serious shortage of personnel. Qin's military observation group checked the situation of their division.

"The soldiers are local rascals. These people are empty-paying guys. They are not the sons of a certain general, or the sons of the nobles of the Yan Kingdom. What they see is a group of weak and weak. They are not **** at all. They are not worthy of fighting, they are only worthy of being killed, or deserters, or surrender."

"Their weapons are also very old and backward. One thing can show the condition of their weapons. I found that when some of them put on the bayonet again. They are not good. The bayonet is rusty and I would like to ask. How often do they sharpen their bayonet. The worst is their muskets. The old flintlocks they use. This kind of guns need to be replaced with stone chips, but many of them do not have stone chips. The barrel is damaged. It was rusty, and the dust inside was not cleaned. If placed in the Qin army, such soldiers would be tied with a hundred army sticks and then fined to clean the toilet. Except for the weapons, it is the personnel. This is a one A master-level army, if they have a full staff of more than 30,000, but in fact it is less than 5,000. They can have no more than two regiments at most. Oh my god. The national defense of Yan is now entrusted to such an army." Military observers wrote.
