Chapter 261 The Peacock Dynasty's Hollow Card
Chapter 261 The Peacock Dynasty's Hollow Card
With the spread of the news, the topic of hot discussion in the whole Great Qin quickly evolved from the assessment system to how to win the first assessment in a few months later, and thus enter the court.
After all, this is the first time in history that there is a fair competition between poor students and powerful people.
Although the positions of the first batch of intern officials were not high, it was enough for poor students.
And the newspapers also said that Daqin is extremely short of people now, as long as they can graduate from the Royal Academy, they have the opportunity to become officials.
This is enough to make poor students crazy about it.
The officials of the various ministries of the Great Qin Dynasty also have different thoughts at the moment.
Because before the students take the exam, they, the officials, have to be assessed first.
Once unqualified, the light ones will be punished and fined, and the heavy ones will be dismissed directly.
Many powerful children who got official positions by virtue of their connections were shivering and thinking about countermeasures.
On the contrary, those officials who had real talents but were not reused before became excited.
This assessment is a catastrophe for the dudes, but it is a great opportunity for them!
As the news continued to spread, the entire Daqin also set off a storm of reading.
Maurya Dynasty, the city of Arakosia.
"Only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can be so thoughtful about people from humble backgrounds like me."
Han Xin put down the "Daqin Daily" that came with the supplies, and his eyes were a little more emotional.
If he could have met His Highness the Crown Prince earlier, he would not have been suppressed or even humiliated by others back then.
Students today are much luckier than they were back then.
But soon, a smile appeared on the corner of Han Xin's mouth.
Because now he is no longer the nameless pawn who needed to beg for food in the past.
Now Han Xin is a great general, a famous general who can control one side, and the captain of the Protectorate of the Western Regions of the Great Qin Dynasty.
The [-] Yuezhi cavalry under his command won consecutive victories in the war against the Maurya Dynasty, and they have already won dozens of cities for Daqin.
He only needs to take the city of Amri, and he can control the Maurya province of Arakosia and open up the outlet to the Arabian Sea.
As long as the estuary is captured, the supplies and reinforcements from Daqin's mainland can be directly arrived here by sea.
Da Qin's control over the Maurya Dynasty will also continue to rise with the opening of the sea route.
"The general, the little boy of Shari Shuka, has already persuaded the opposition forces in the country and assembled an army of more than [-]. It is expected to arrive in three days."
Bo Cai, the lord of the Dayue Clan, walked in with a piece of information, speaking quite standard in Qin language.
And his gaze towards Han Xin was full of awe.
At the beginning, he didn't intend to surrender to Da Qin sincerely. Although he had heard of Han Xin's name, he still dismissed it.
The various tribes of the Dayue Clan were also quite dissatisfied with Han Xin, but because of Ying Yu's reputation, they dared not speak out.
However, what people didn't expect was that since Han Xin took over the command of the Da Yuezhi army, he not only won every battle, but also suffered negligible casualties on his own side.
This made the leaders of the Da Yue Clan look at Han Xin with admiration.
With Han Xin's command, their Dayue clan iron cavalry achieved fruitful results with the least casualties.
This gap can be seen by anyone who is not blind.
Fighting has always been a matter of holding one's head. Who doesn't want to survive to the end on the battlefield?
Following Han Xin obviously had a better chance of surviving than following Bo Cai, the lord.
As a result, the attitude of the more than [-] cavalry of the Dayue Clan towards Han Xin changed.
Then Han Xin made a rule that as long as the city was captured by the Dayue Clan cavalry, [-]% of the spoils could be left, and the captured peacock captives would also be rewarded accordingly.
Although it seems that the proportion is very low, but the Peacock Dynasty has so many people!
Many cavalrymen of the Da Yue clan, who were originally bitter, made their fortunes in the campaign against the Mauryan Dynasty.
Coupled with the fear of Daqin, Han Xin's influence among the Da Yuezhi cavalry is getting higher and higher.
Even Bo Cai, the lord of the country, has become a die-hard fan of Han Xin.
"It seems that the Maurya Dynasty has figured it out internally. Is this planning to stop internal strife and unify external efforts?"
A look of disdain appeared on Han Xin's face.
"It's just because I, Daqin, put too much pressure on me."
"According to the captives' confession, this Shari Shuka was the most brutal monarch since the founding of the Maurya Dynasty. He believed in the words of the Jain god stick and massacred Brahmans and Buddhists. Only a few years after he ascended the throne, the peacock died in his hands. There are already more than a million people!"
"Many peacocks would rather take captives to serve as coolies for me in Daqin than stay in the country of peacocks, just because of this Sari Shuka."
"Under such circumstances, how could the monarchs of those small countries in the Maurya Dynasty really have one heart with Sari Shuka?"
Yang Zaixing snorted coldly, and said disdainfully.
"Although this is the case, don't be careless. Although the Maurya Dynasty has been split into several pieces, it still has strength."
"According to Jin Yiwei's latest information, this time they not only gathered 20 cavalry and [-] infantry from various places, but also dispatched elephant soldiers from the bottom of the box!"
"We have encountered these elephant soldiers before, even in a disadvantaged situation, they can form a lot of power, and this time, they dispatched at least five thousand!"
"Fight head-on, even if we win, we will pay a heavy price!"
"If you are not careful, you may be in danger."
Zhou Bo frowned and reminded.
Hearing Xiang Bing, Po Lai also showed a trace of fear on his face.
He didn't believe in evil before, and brought his personal guards to capture a few war elephants as a gift to Ying Yu.
As a result, he was almost swept away by the war elephant, and now there is still a lot of shadow in his heart.
At the beginning, there were only a dozen war elephants, which caused nearly a thousand losses to the guards led by Bo Cai.
What we have to face now is a total of [-] heads!
When he thought that he was going to face five thousand war elephants with incomparable strength, thick skin and invulnerability, Bo Cai couldn't help but feel his scalp go numb.
Don't look at the nearly [-] cavalry on the Da Yue Clan's side now, but if it really hedges, it's just a matter of a few rounds of the War Elephant Legion.
Moreover, Po Lai was also worried that when there were more war elephants, the terrifying momentum and smell would scare the war horses.
If a horse stumbles suddenly on the way to charge, it will really be a tragedy in the world!
"What are you afraid of? Isn't it just [-] war elephants, and then hand them over to my cavalry battalion."
Seeing the fear on Po Cai's face, Yang Zaixing snorted coldly.
"Five thousand heads, it seems that this is the last hole card of the Maurya Dynasty."
Contrary to the expectations of Bo Cai and others, there was no trace of sadness on Han Xin's face, but his smile became stronger.
"General Han, these are [-] terrifying war elephants. Even if General Yang is mighty, he can't fight recklessly."
