Mi Xingli walked over with a smile, took Ying Wuji's arm and walked into the God General's Mansion.
Ying Wuji felt his arm sinking into something warm and soft. He subconsciously wanted to pull it out, but Mi Xingli held him tightly.
He turned his head to take a look and happened to meet Mi Xingli's sparkling eyes.
Mi Xingli tilted her head and smiled: "Brother Ying! You have helped me a lot this time. Do you want any reward? I will definitely satisfy you as long as I can give you something~"
Before the reform, Qu Jingzhao and his two families were like three stubborn stones.
Although the situation on the front line this time did not intensify their internal conflicts to the point of disintegration, it did create a rift.
The bottleneck of this reform has been broken!
She was confident that the reform could be completed completely within three years.
Ying Wuji looked at her soft and flickering eyes and couldn't help but grin, "No need! Reform is also my ideal. If you really want to repay me, then you can be more ruthless and make the reform successful sooner. I can also become a rich man a few days earlier."
There was a barely perceptible hint of loss in the depths of Mi Xingli's eyes. Since coming to Chu, the relationship between the two was still very close, but it had become more and more romantic.
But the smile on her face became more charming: "I remember when we were in Li State, you said that you only talked about reforms, why are you so enthusiastic now? And... Actually, I have always wanted to ask you, I reformed to make Chu State stronger, what is your purpose for reforming?"
Ying Wuji chuckled, "To show off! You see, Lord Shang carried out the reforms himself, and his reputation was passed down to future generations, but he himself was divided into five equal parts. As for me, you are in front to take the blame for me, so I am safe, and I can also get a share of the reputation for free, how cool!"
Mi Xingli rolled her eyes at him: "Can you be serious?"
"Really serious?"
"How else could it be fake?"
"Then let me think about it..."
Ying Wuji thought for a moment, then replied with a smile: "I hope that in this world... as long as the people are willing to work, everyone can have enough food to eat and live happily, all efforts in the world will be rewarded, and all those who have a good family background but are just sitting there doing nothing can just go eat shit."
Mi Xingli's eyes lit up: "Do you really think so?"
Ying Wuji curled his lips: "Then you are talking nonsense? Haven't you seen that I have always been a glorious worker!"
Mi Xingli thought about it and it seemed to be true. You said that Ying Wuji had a very high status, but he worked hard every day. He was the head craftsman of the Mohist Guild and a model teacher of the Dali Academy. He was still the same when he came to the State of Chu.
You can imagine how much he loves to enjoy himself... It seems like he only eats home-cooked meals on a daily basis, and despite his high status, he has never thought about indulgence in sensual pleasures.
This was the first time she heard Ying Wuji's true words today, and she felt quite ashamed of herself.
Although she also believes that the core of the reform is to open up channels from the bottom to the top and activate the vitality of the entire country.
But for her, this is just a means.
For Ying Wuji, this is the goal.
She couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Ying is a man of high character. I admire him deeply. Today you have to give me a chance to toast you with a hundred or eighty jars of wine, otherwise I won't agree!"
Little sister?
This was the first time Ying Wuji heard this self-proclaimed title from her mouth.
But this is not small...
…
In the next few days, countries around the world were filled with joy and sorrow.
After hearing that Gan was withdrawing his troops, Qi also withdrew its troops at the speed of light. When it learned that Gan was preparing to attack Han, it immediately turned around and deployed its troops on the border between Qi and Yan. Their current strategy is very simple. Whoever Gan thinks is a soft persimmon, they will squeeze the same persimmon as Gan.
As for the Gan country, they have no martial ethics at all.
Just take the elite troops from South Korea who had participated in the siege of the Li family and the Gan country, and start to attack them fiercely.
The cities of South Korea were not reinforced with concrete and were far inferior to the five cities in the western border of Chu.
In addition, Ying Wuque was really powerful. In just two months, he captured seven cities and headed straight for the capital of Korea.
South Korea had never seen such a situation before. All the civil and military officials in the court were dumbfounded. They no longer cared about the internal strife and begged for reinforcements all over the map.
But Yan was at war with Qi.
The reforms in Wei State had just begun to show results. Although the Wei Wuzu were powerful, they had just started the reforms and faced the same financial shortage problem as the Chu State, so the help they provided was limited.
Not to mention Ji Dong, the fake ally, Wu Yan is already in the period of economic recovery.
at last.
No one expected it.
It was the State of Li that actually extended a helping hand and lent a large sum of money and food to the State of Han to help them hire Wei Wuzu. It took another two months to stop the offensive of the State of Gan and forcibly recapture five of the seven lost cities.
It's not that Ying Wuque couldn't win, but he had to go deep into the hinterland and face the strongest troops of Wei and Han at the same time. Not only was there great pressure on the front line, but the logistical pressure was also overwhelming. In addition, he had already suffered a minor injury from the battle with the State of Chu, so he was forced to retreat.
Anyway, the remaining two cities are adjacent to Gan State and are not so easy to take down.
No matter how small a fly is, it is still meat. At last, I have given an explanation to the country.
And the State of Li.
After the ceasefire, Luo Ming was immediately sent as an envoy to the Korean court to lobby for the right to rebuild seven cities in Korea.
The offer was very high. Besides straining South Korea's finances, they would also have to mortgage a saltpeter mine and a black iron mine.
Therefore, Luo Ming was subjected to a lot of abuse and criticism at the beginning, but this time the Gan Kingdom almost attacked the capital, which made all the officials of the Han Kingdom tremble with fear again. They felt that in addition to the lack of military strength, the biggest problem was that the city walls were not strong enough.
then……
The Yinshan Fortress and the five cities in the western border of Chu soon became benchmarks.
