Chapter 265 The Class Concept of the Maurya Dynasty

Just as the Great Yuezhi cavalry was searching everywhere, a dazzling fire suddenly burst out in the direction of the Mauryan Dynasty's central army tent.

"What's going on? Didn't I tell you not to use rockets?"

Bo Cai suddenly became furious and asked accusingly.

Those silks and satin and glass lamps, the most valuable items, cannot withstand fire.

I don't know how much money I will lose from this fire.

"I don't know, maybe those peacock cowards knocked down the lantern when they were running for their lives?"

The guard captain also looked distressed.

"Hurry over and grab as much as you can before the fire ignites!"

Spinach jumped up and down anxiously.

The Dayue clan cavalry immediately rushed towards the direction of the Chinese army's tent.

They had fought against the Mauryan dynasty army for a long time, and they all knew that the Mauryan dynasty was also a slave.

Most of the wealth is concentrated in the hands of high-level generals, leaving little soldiers with little money at all.

It would have been too late to catch the prisoner if he had been slower. Anyway, it was impossible for two legs to outrun the horse.

On the contrary, if these good things were delayed, they would really be burned down.

Dazzled by money, Bo Cai and others did not notice that the fire in the Maurya Dynasty's tent was getting stronger and stronger.

When Bo Cai realized something was wrong, the entire camp was completely reduced to a sea of ​​fire.

"No, Lord, we have fallen into a trap..."

The guard captain was the first to react and shouted loudly.

Bo Cai's face was also extremely ugly. Seeing the tents in front of him being devoured by fire, Bo Cai was extremely depressed.

He didn't expect that the other party would be so cruel.

We are all cavalry on our side. Although we will suffer some losses in the face of this flood, it is not difficult to rush out.

But the Mauryan army in this camp are all infantry.

"Master, please leave quickly. If you don't leave, it will be too late."

Seeing that Nana was still dazed, the captain of the personal guard quickly urged him.

"withdraw!"

Feeling that the surrounding temperature was getting higher and higher, Bo Cai decisively gave the order to retreat.

It's just that they have already penetrated deep into the Chinese army camp, and there are raging fires in all directions. It is not that easy to evacuate.

"Everyone listen to the order, blindfold the horses, and rush for me!"

Bo Cai roared angrily, and then ignored the others, using his strength to fight his horse, and rushed out of the sea to care for himself.

...

"This Peacock King is really ruthless."

"With this big fire, he will injure the enemy by one thousand and himself and himself by eight hundred. Aren't you afraid of causing a mutiny by doing this?"

Zhou Bo looked at the information sent by Jin Yiwei with some disbelief.

The fire in the vanguard camp of the Mauryan army burned to death more than 3,000 Yuezhi cavalry.

Even Bo Cai was burned and seriously injured, but the number of Maurya Dynasty's own people who were burned to death was at least ten times that of the Great Yuezhi cavalry!

If this was done in Da Qin, any general who dared to do this would definitely end up dead.

The Military Law of the Qin Dynasty clearly stipulates that anyone who fails to save Paoze when he is in danger on the battlefield will be beheaded!

The casualty rate is also one of the key points in the assessment of the military merit and title system.

Even if the battle is won, if the casualties among the soldiers are too high, not only will the leading general not be promoted to a noble title, but he will also be punished.

This fully reflects how much Great Qin cherishes the lives of its soldiers.

Of course, these regulations only apply to the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, the armies of the subordinate countries such as the Da Yueshi, and are not within the scope of protection of these regulations.

"General Zhou doesn't know that the Maurya Dynasty is different from our Qin Dynasty. They have a very strict caste system."

"Every Mauryan dynasty person has been assigned a class when he is born. The lower castes must unconditionally obey the orders of the upper castes."

"The same is true in the Mauryan Army. The upper castes become officers or even generals as soon as they enter. The lower castes, no matter how brave they are in fighting, are at most a corps commander or something like a captain, and they can't even be called a school captain."

"And the lives of these lower castes have never been taken seriously by upper caste officers. The so-called casualties are just numbers."

Zhongli Mei put down the book in his hand and explained to Zhou Bo.

Since being transferred to Han Xin, Zhong Lizhen began to study the books on the Mauryan Dynasty, because he knew a lot about the Mauryan Dynasty.

"this..."

"Are all the people at the bottom of the Mauryan Dynasty weak? They are so oppressed and they don't resist?"

Zhou Bo was a little stunned when he heard this. In his opinion, this was simply unbelievable.

"They have been brainwashed by religious gods since they were young. They are told that the more suffering they suffer in this life, the more blessings they will enjoy after being reincarnated in the next life. In addition, all resources are monopolized by the nobles and upper castes, so they can only endure it."

Zhongli Mei sighed and said:

"After seeing the tragic experience of the common people in the Maurya Dynasty, I understand even more how happy the people of Daqin are now."

Zhou Bo nodded in agreement.

Since Ying Yu ascended to the position of crown prince, various government decrees have been issued continuously, and he doesn't know about other places.

But he still knew the living standards of the people in Peijun.

Compared with before, it is simply a world of difference.

While the people of the Maurya Dynasty were still struggling at the bottom, the common people of Da Qin had already solved the problem.

Solved the problem of having enough food and clothing.

Students from poor families are studying the content of the examinations of various departments in the court. Once they pass the examination, they will really jump over the dragon gate and directly enter the official class.

The difference between the two is not on the same level at all.

"Don't think so much. What we need to do now is to defeat the main force of the Maurya Dynasty. This is the best way to repay His Royal Highness the Prince's kindness."

Han Xin smiled and said: "Although what Zhong Lizhen said is the truth about the Maurya Dynasty, this time, Sari Suka went too far. The monarchs of small countries who were not convinced by him must be holding back their resentment at this time."

"As long as we can defeat Sari Suka on the battlefield, we can completely disintegrate the Maurya Dynasty, and then we can gradually encroach on it."

"What the captain said is true!"

Zhongli Mei and Zhou Bo cupped their hands together.

...

Maurya side.

After two days and two nights of hard work and the loss of thousands of manpower, the collapsed wooden bridge was finally repaired.

Many boats were also collected and several pontoons were erected.
