Chapter 618 Big Sister
The creek gurgled.
Fish were swimming in the clear water, and two children were having a great time grabbing sticks and nets to catch fish.
"Han Xin, help me get the net."
The little girl's feet were bare, her body was covered with mud, and her white face looked dark.
The boy next to him looked similar.
This pair of fishing experts is completely girl-led.
Maybe it's because life in the Yin Yang family is too depressing, or maybe it's because she feels lonely because her talents have far exceeded those of others since she was a child. At this time, the little girl is acting like a child in the countryside, having fun.
"Hurry up and cover the net, the fish will run away."
"I'm coming, big sister!"
The boy hurried over with the net, but in a hurry, he fell down and fell into the water, which made the girl very anxious.
"Why are you so clumsy?"
…
In the distant forest, Zhao Shuang smiled slightly as he looked at the little girl's wild energy and joy on her face.
After stopping to watch for a long time, footsteps sounded behind him.
"Why do you have the leisure to come here?"
Wei Liao walked to Zhao Shuang and asked.
"When I come here in my spare time, it's rare to see urchins playing in the countryside."
Wei Liao smiled.
The boy in the distance was his disciple, and it was he who sharpened the sword.
With Wei Liao's status as a captain of the Qin Kingdom, it would have been extremely easy for his disciples to have a good future.
But Wei Liao is not an ordinary sword forger, and the sword he wants to sharpen is not an ordinary sword either.
For this reason, Wei Liao did not hesitate to let a boy wander around the world when he was still young, experience the warmth and coldness of the world, and become sharper.
Of course, Wei Liao did not just leave and leave, but looked on from the side. Until Wei Liao can confirm that this sword can handle the crisis on its own.
But there were twists and turns in Wei Liao's plan because the little girl from the Yin Yang family appeared.
The appearance of a little girl with outstanding talent, good looks but full of wildness was like a ray of light, illuminating this dark world and bringing a smile to Han Xin's face.
Wei Liao did not stop it, because a skilled swordsmith would not deliberately let his work go through fire and water, but would let it go through it himself.
Therefore, Wei Liao continued to be by the side and had no influence. Until Zhao Shuang appeared.
"The State of Dai will be destroyed, and the State of Yan will not be able to support itself independently. And when all five kingdoms are destroyed, the State of Qi will not be far behind."
In fact, after the demise of the Chu State, the Qi State could not escape its demise. Today's war with the Yan Dynasty is just the end of the war north of the river.
In fact, no matter how good the fight is over there, it will not affect the affairs of Qi State.
Wei Liao looked further.
After the plan to attack Daliang with water was proposed, Wei was doomed. To the south of the river, the two great kingdoms of Qi and Chu could no longer stop Qin's military front.
But everyone in the world is confused.
Is the Qin State like the great Zhou Dynasty in the past, enfeoffing the meritorious officials to all parts of the world?
Zhao Shuang's example allowed these people to see the light. But Wei Liao saw something strange from another angle.
"The world is about to be settled, but why is the training of private soldiers in the Lord's fiefdom more stringent than before. Even the Anxi Town Army and Taiyuan Army in the north have four seasons of training more frequently than before."
The soldiers do not take off their armor, and the horses do not take off their saddles. It's not like the world is about to be decided, which is what a meritorious deed should be. Instead, it seemed like we were facing a more intense war.
The Qin State's twenty-level military merit title system gave the Qin State a large number of military merit nobility.
The world is about to be settled, and although there will be no more wars, these people can still glorify their descendants by resting on their past achievements.
But what Wei Liao saw was a completely different scene.
On the one hand, many distinguished officials of the Qin State, taking advantage of the fact that the war was about to end, worked hard to gain military merit, buy houses and land, add livestock and servants, and marry several concubines.
On the other hand, there are many distinguished officials who are more cautious than ten years ago and continue to train in martial arts.
"Many people in the world are hoping that the war will never end. In fact, the war will never end."
Zhao Shuang looked at Wei Liao.
"Otherwise, why would you still sharpen your sword? Even if you don't know, is there any possibility of the sword being unsheathed?"
If you just want to train disciples and teach what you have learned, then ordinary geniuses are enough. The war to unify the world is about to end, and Qin's demand for military talents will shrink sharply.
Even an extremely talented person must gain seniority in the army and slowly rise to the top. Without special circumstances, it is difficult to get to the top.
If nothing happens in the world, good generals will not appear. On the contrary, the world was in chaos and heroes emerged in large numbers.
But what Wei Liao is doing now is completely different.
"Then when do you think the war will happen?"
"There are Xiongnu in the north and Baiyue in the south. In addition, although the six countries are destroyed, the six countries' anti-Qin heart will not be extinguished within twenty years."
In the past, the Qin State was just a kingdom, and it only had to take care of the vicinity of Guanzhong. Today's Qin State is an empire, and it wants to govern the entire world.
The threats from the north and the south, which were originally shared by other countries, are now concentrated on Qin.
"So the war will continue. As for when the war will occur, it's hard to say."
At this moment, a burst of cheers came from the distant stream.
A big herring was caught in the net, and the two children were very excited.
"Twenty years later, the nobles of the six countries who are now suffering from the destruction of their country are dead. They are old and have no spare power to oppose the Qin State. But before that, it was still quite dangerous."
Wei Liao said. Today, Zhao Shuang is taking a completely different path. In fact, after Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, its military resources became quite precious and scarce.
If the world is peaceful, there will naturally be no need to maintain so many troops.
In most places, what we face are security battles, not wars. Public security warfare is completely different from war. Daily tasks include arrests, detectives, and investigations. What is more needed are talents who are proficient in criminal investigation, law, and arrests.
Even ordinary bandits cannot be a match for the well-armed county soldiers with bows and crossbows.
But the border is different. Faced with barbarian plunder, Qin decided to fight back, and a large-scale war may break out.
Coincidentally, the power in Zhao Shuang's hands still plays a very important role. In fact, a large part of Qin's scarce but precious military resources after the war will be allocated to Zhao Shuang.
Wei Liao looked at Zhao Shuang, his eyes also looking at the two children in the distance.
"In that case, why are you still staying in Kanto?"
"Some things have to be settled eventually."
When Wei Liao saw Zhao Shuang walking away, he walked to the stream and said something to the little girl first. The little girl seemed very happy. Then, what did Zhao Shuang say to Han Xin?
At first, Han Xin seemed unwilling, but the little girl patted Han Xin on the shoulder very dissatisfied.
Soon, Han Xin agreed.
The two children followed Zhao Shuang, shouting.
"Went to eat!"
Wei Liao was stunned and looked at Han Xin who was following behind, smiling. Suddenly he realized that the sword he had worked so hard to forge might be different.
