Chapter 144
However, even if Ying Su wants to have fun, he won't be able to for long!
The impact of that notice sent out was too great!
The speed at which Li Li Yuanba wiped out Xiang Yu's four hundred thousand rebel troops was too fast.
So fast that everyone couldn't react at all!
Yes!
Before, all the nobles speculated that this battle would take at least a few months!
This is a very normal situation!
Zhao Kuo still held out for half a year under Bai Qi.
Xiang Yu is a descendant of Xiang Yan, no matter what, he should be able to hold out for a year!
And the nobles also made all kinds of plans!
If Xiang Yu wins, that's naturally good!
Relying on Xiang Yu's four hundred thousand troops, directly force Ying Su to abdicate and support the First Emperor!
Afterwards, use these four hundred thousand troops to force Ying Zheng to kill Ying Su, and then force Ying Zheng to re-implement the enfeoffment system, enfeoffing them, the nobles whose ancestors made great contributions to the Great Qin, as princes one by one.
Even if he doesn't win, a stalemate is fine.
Meng Wu's three hundred thousand troops, after all, need to eat and drink!
And without the support of the nobles, how long can the money and grain in Ying Zheng's hands last?
They could drag Ying Zheng to death!
Wait until Ying Zheng has no money and grain.
Wait until the Great Qin's family fortune is exhausted!
Wait until Ying Zheng asks them for money and grain, hehe...
Shall we talk about enfeoffment?
If you talk, then I want this marquis, I want that king, I want this territory, he wants that territory!
You don't want to talk?
Sorry!
No money, no grain!
Just let Xiang Yu break in!
The nobles' calculations were all excellent!
But... didn't expect it!
Truly didn't expect it!
Xiang Yu's army actually lost?
And, it didn't even last two months!
Don't talk about two months!
It didn't even last half a month!
Yes!
Since learning that Xiang Yu arrived in the Inner History until now, it hasn't even been half a month!
At most, it hasn't even been ten days!
But just today, Ying Su's notice was actually issued!
And it said that Xiang Yu's army was wiped out by more than three hundred thousand!
"This... is this true or false?"
"Could it be that this rebellious son is deceiving us?"
At this moment, someone asked.
They couldn't believe this matter even if they died.
After all, that was Xiang Yu's four hundred thousand troops!
Four hundred thousand people, even if they were changed into four hundred thousand pigs, it would take more than a month to catch them!
But...
Half a month!
In less than half a month, Ying Su issued a notice!
This is really hard to believe!
"Possible! Even if this Li Li Yuanba is fierce, can he kill three hundred thousand people?"
"I don't believe it!"
At that moment, someone shook their head again!
Next, many nobles sneered:
"The rebellious son Ying Su, knowing that his end is near, has already used unscrupulous means, actually wanting to use this method to deceive us, hoping that we will pay taxes!"
"This approach is truly ridiculous!"
Some even laughed loudly: "The rebellious son Ying Su is foolish and ridiculous, actually using a fake notice to deceive the world. Doesn't he know that some things cannot be faked?"
"Just like the war at the front, faking this kind of thing, at best makes people laugh, at worst, it's the destruction of the country and the family!"
"Incompetent!"
"Dim-witted emperor!"
At this moment, many people were laughing loudly!
However, there were also nobles who shook their heads and poured cold water:
"It's true!"
"What?"
"True?"
Once these words were spoken, all the nobles looked at the person who spoke!
That person said:
"I have relatives who joined the army, and they entered Meng Wu's army!"
"Yesterday, they wrote a letter home saying that they would probably be home tomorrow or the day after!"
Some people also sighed: "It is indeed true. The Ning family of the Huaiyin nobles already told me that the rebellious son won a great victory in this battle, Xiang Yu was defeated, and he has already started to flee. They told me not to oppose the new Emperor, as this would be very unfavorable for me!"
"This... this..."
After these words were spoken, instantly, everyone was stunned.
Many people were angry: "Such a major matter, why didn't you say it earlier?"
They were boundless with anger, however, the two of them just smiled and didn't speak!
Nobles also have their own thoughts. Although they are united in resisting taxes, they are also happy to see other nobles' families destroyed!
What if some blind person relies on Xiang Yu's four hundred thousand troops to mess with Ying Su?
If they succeed, everyone benefits!
If they fail, it's just a joke to watch!
The Bai family, descendants of Bai Qi, isn't that a joke?
When Huang Chao led a thousand people to besiege the Bai family, you actually dared to resist and not pay?
What's up, we only said we wouldn't pay, you really didn't pay!
Is money and grain really more important than life?
Although on the surface everyone was indignant at the actions of Bai Qi's descendants and cursed Ying Su for being a bastard!
But... commenting on this matter in private, everyone was cursing the Bai family for being idiots, not knowing how to advance or retreat, and having a sick brain!
Bai Qi back then had a sick brain, was killed for opposing King King Zhaoxiang Ying Ji, and his descendants also have abnormal brains, being slaughtered for opposing Ying Su!
The nobles' thoughts are not united at all!
But in terms of making up the one-tenth tax, they are extremely united.
"Don't pay, absolutely don't pay. If that rebellious son has the ability, let him treat my Zhang Yi descendants like he treated Bai Qi's descendants!"
"My Shang Yang descendants have the most backbone. This tax, let alone one-tenth, even if it's a grain of rice, we Shang Yang descendants won't pay!"
At that moment, all the nobles shouted, they were of one mind, united, all shouting not to pay taxes!
However, before the next day even arrived, Xiao He was busy to death!
Because, too many nobles came to make up this one-tenth tax.
