In fact, the 50,000 troops who guarded the hundreds of thousands of slaves building the mausoleum had no idea that the slaves were building a mausoleum.
This is because this huge construction site complex is very strange.
It looks like a huge castle, but the interior is intricate, with large and small rooms.
There are thousands of rooms, but it doesn't look like a mausoleum.
No one knows what kind of building it is, including the slaves, overseers and architects.
Only a limited number of people really know that this is a mausoleum.
But in order to prevent the location and secrets of the mausoleum from being leaked, everyone must die, including of course the 50,000 troops.
Wu Lingzi wanted Zhao Ziliang to order them to enter the mausoleum and kill all the slaves, supervisors and architects, and then Seal the tomb door outside and put away the 50,000 troops Starving to death in the mausoleum was the best solution in Wu Lingzi's opinion, but Zhao Ziliang believed that they were all warriors, and starving to death in the mausoleum was an insult to them.
This was a tragedy, and the Western Qin Kingdom Soldiers cannot die sadly.
Even if a soldier wants to die, he must die on the battlefield.
Zhao Ziliang immediately ordered Fan Yong, the commander of the 50,000-strong army who guarded the slaves to build the mausoleum.
After the construction of the mausoleum was completed, he immediately led his army north to Carthage to station and wait for orders.
At the same time, he ordered Zhao Bei to prepare for the Umayyad Caliphate after crossing the sea.
Prepare.
Herod Rudd had a great time playing in the city of Carthage.
This city has a long history.
Although it was greatly damaged in previous wars, later people built it beautifully.
It is beautiful and has restored its prosperity and stability.
There are many remnants of many dynasties in the city.
The architectural relics here are all buildings with distinctive culture and art, and have a profound heritage.
As a young literary and artistic woman of this era, Herodrut had a special liking for these.
She even wrote two descriptions half a month later.
Zhao Ziliang praised Carthage's poetry after reading it.
At the end of October, Zhao Ziliang and his party traveled eastward along the North African coastline to Alexandria.
This was Zhao Ziliang's second visit to this famous city with a long history, and Ma Sui was guarding it here.
Herodrut was interested in visiting various scenic spots in Western Qin, so Zhao Ziliang allowed her to do so and sent a special person to guide the group and make proper arrangements for protection, food and accommodation.
While Zhao Ziliang was inspecting military and political affairs in Alexandria, Herodrut had already taken his entourage and some of the guards sent by Zhao Ziliang to Cairo to see the pyramids.
In the Governor's Palace of Alexander, Zhao Ziliang listened quietly to Ma Sui's work report on military and political affairs.
He has been guarding here in the past few years.
There has been great improvement in civil affairs, and he has also spent a lot of time on public security.
Thanks to great efforts, Alexandria now has the best security situation in the entire North African region.
After listening to Ma Sui's report, Zhao Ziliang asked: "After hearing what you said, I have a general understanding of the situation.
How have you felt here these two years?"
Ma Sui said: "Your Majesty, what I have felt most deeply over the past two years here is that conflicts between tribes are the most difficult to resolve among all military and political affairs."
Zhao Ziliang nodded.
Tribal conflicts have always been one of the most important conflicts.
They are conflicts between the ruled and the rulers.
The center of the conflict is the conflict of beliefs, customs and values.
Although blind killing can temporarily It has a certain effect, but it is likely to cause serious consequences in the future.
The best way is to boil the frogs in warm water so that the people of the ruled tribes will change over time.
For example, in the past, the Dashi Kingdom used a method that allowed pagans to maintain their original beliefs, but they had to pay extra taxes, and they had to keep to themselves and not disturb the public order.
This non-extreme and tolerant approach was very effective for the pagans.
They are not forced to take risks, but life is difficult because of heavy taxes.
If they change their beliefs and Customs, life will be easier, which makes many second and third generations of pagans choose to give up the beliefs of their ancestors and choose to believe in the Dashi Cult.
Now the Western Qin State also uses this method to treat the Persians and Dashi Cult.

People, Jews, Romans, Byzantines and Greeks, although they encountered many setbacks during this period, they were still very effective.
"You have made outstanding achievements here in the past two years, I am very pleased."
Zhao Ziliang expressed his full affirmation of Ma Sui's actions here, and then asked: "By the way, you have been sixty-four in a few years, right?"
Ma Sui's hair and beard have turned gray, but he still looks very strong and elegant.
He is a Confucian general himself, not only good at running the army, but also good at government affairs and strategy, which makes his temperament look...
It is very different from other generals.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I am sixty-four this year, and I am already sixty-five.
According to regulations, I will retire next year.
Early retirement is also possible."
Zhao Ziliang asked: "What do you think about retirement?"
Ma Sui said: "I don't have any special opinions.
The imperial court naturally has a purpose in doing this."
Zhao Ziliang said: "The reason why the imperial court formulated retirement measures is to free up time for young people; on the other hand, it also allows the elderly to retire and take care of themselves.
The elderly have dedicated their lives to the king and the imperial court and have no time to serve."
Do something for yourself and your family.
When you are old, you should spend more time with your family and enjoy more happiness.
Thirdly, people become less courageous when they get older.
When they are young, they lack courage and momentum.
We cannot be afraid that young people are prone to making mistakes and are reluctant to delegate power.
History has proven that future generations will always do better than their predecessors because they are enjoying the shadow of their ancestors.
"Standing on the shoulders of the giants of the past, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and a new generation replaces the old.
This is not a fun thing to say."
"According to regulations, you will retire next year, but there is still a big thing that needs you to complete."
Ma Sui stood up, cupped his fists and bowed, saying, "I respectfully listen to your Majesty's decree."
"Some time ago, the Umayyad dynasty of the Iberian Peninsula sent a mission to express their surrender to us and hope to sign a peace agreement with us.
I have thought about it for a long time.
Peace can be negotiated, but war must be fought.
We and Dashi The human battle cannot be given up halfway.
Although the Umayyad Dynasty is different from the Abbasid Dynasty, their essence is the same.
The best way to leave this trouble to those who come after you is to eliminate it forever while Gu is still able to move.
Gu has decided to let you be the commander this time and command 150,000 troops to conquer the Umayyad dynasty, including 100,000 infantry troops and 100,000 navy troops.
The fleet is 50,000, and you have full command of it.
This battle will be the last battle you command before retirement, and it will also be a perfect ending to your military career."
After hearing this, Ma Sui suddenly became excited, his eyebrows and beard trembled non-stop, and a few tears dropped from the corners of his eyes.
He immediately lifted up the hem of his shirt and knelt down on one knee and said, "I will obey the king's order.
Thank you, Your Majesty."
Within two days, a messenger came from Jerusalem and reported to Zhao Ziliang: "Your Majesty, the King sent a personal letter to Your Majesty from Xinjing."
Zhao Ziliang took the letter and opened it, read it over, pondered for a moment and said to Liang Zhenwu, Ma Sui and others: "Zhao Lei's letter said that he wanted to send the eldest prince Zhao Ang, the second prince Zhao Shuo, and the third prince Zhao Lin to serve alone.
This is how you look at this matter, Ma Sui, please tell me."
I'm afraid Zhao Ziliang is the only one in the world who can call his son Zhao Lei by his first name.
Ma Sui hesitated for a moment, then stood up and clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, between my ministers, the king may have two intentions.
One is to send three princes to serve His Majesty to fulfill his filial piety, and the other is to ask Your Majesty to train a few princes." .
"You still have something to say, don't you?"
Zhao Ziliang sighed.
He didn't know that Zhao Lei might be a little dissatisfied with the eldest prince Zhao Ang, so he sent three adult princes to let him, the grandfather, take a look.

After all, maybe one of the second and third eldest children may be more suitable to inherit the throne than the eldest brother.
However, when Zhao Ziliang founded the country and ascended the throne as king, he established the rules and made it into law.
The eldest son of the king has the first line of succession.
This is not based on personal will, but a decision supported by all the subjects of the world.
Even if No matter how unbearable the eldest son is, as long as he is not a fool, is not mentally retarded, and makes no mistakes, his succession to the throne is certain.
No one can change this outcome, not even Zhao Ziliang.
He can never slap himself in the face.
The current political system and political situation of the Western Qin Kingdom have been completely formed by this period.
Even if the emperor is no longer incompetent, all central departments will check and balance each other.
The importance of the judicial department has been equal to that of the Government Affairs Council, and it is at the same level.
It is impossible for powerful ministers to appear Although the situation of causing chaos in the imperial court and fighting for the right to inherit the throne may resume, , but the possibility of success is reduced by half.
As long as the eldest son of the king has a son, even if the eldest son of the king is framed to death, the biggest beneficiary will not be the conspirator.
Unless the eldest son of the king is framed for the crime of treason, but this is rarely the case.
It happened because there was a large group of people surrounding Wang's eldest son who were always on guard against external conspiracies.
After thinking for a long time, Zhao Ziliang took a pen and wrote a letter.
After sealing it, he handed it to the messenger and said, "Send it to Zhao Lei."
"Yes, Your Majesty" After much thought, Zhao Ziliang agreed to Zhao Lei's plan to send the three princes to him.
Even if he did not agree with Zhao Lei's idea, it did not prevent him from wanting to meet the three oldest grandsons.
After all, they were his Bloodline, although we don't meet much, there is always family affection.
No one can ignore the power of bloodline.
Ten days later, Herodrut returned to Alexandria from Cairo.
Zhao Ziliang immediately set off for Jerusalem together with Herodrut.
This city was also a holy city to Herodrut because she was also a Christian.
As a Christian, it is impossible to take away the important position of Jerusalem in their hearts
