Great Qin's son-in-law

Chapter 219 If you don't give it, then grab it! (Second more)
Qin Luoheng frowned.

He actually guessed that the imperial court had made a plan to build the Great Wall, at least he didn't think that building the Great Wall was actually a kind of route dependence.

But it's understandable.

The four fortresses in Guanzhong have indeed defended Guanzhong for many years.

Ying Zheng continued:
"If the Great Wall can be built, Daqin will be able to be unremittingly prepared for all kinds of frontier troubles that are like fire in the grassland. The Xiongnu who have been troubled by China for a long time can only look at the wall and sigh. Whether it is war or peace, the decision is in the hands of Daqin .”

"In the long run."

"The Huns can only choose to exchange business trips with the Great Qin, and cannot arbitrarily raise troops. As time goes by, the Great Qin will only become more prosperous, and the Huns will only become weaker. Given time, the Great Wall continues to go north. The Great Qin and the Huns may not be able to integrate into one. "

"The Great Wall is the screen, and the straight road is the aid."

"If there is a sudden war in the northern border, Daqin can also directly send troops to the north. The effectiveness of the Great Wall is far greater than gathering heavy troops in the northern border."

"The Great Wall is not only a barrier to protect the Great Qin, but also a bridgehead for the army to enter the palace."

"The Great Wall cuts off the internal and external news, and the army suddenly goes north, and the Xiongnu can't be caught. Only in this way can the mopping up of the Xiongnu you mentioned from time to time be effective, and only in this way can we continue to suppress the Xiongnu until they completely annex the grassland."

heard.

Qin Luoheng was dumbfounded.

He completely understood that the Great Wall built by Daqin was not used for defense, but for offense. Defense could only be regarded as a side effect. Daqin's fundamental idea was to annex the Xiongnu and realize the expansion of territory.

There is a wildness in Daqin's bones, and he has an obsession with opening up territories!

This attachment has gone deep to the bone.

This is inseparable from the beginning and prosperity of the Qin State, and the Great Qin implemented the military merit system, which made the Great Qin have an inexplicable desire for war.

Qin Luoheng hesitated for a moment.

He opened his mouth and said:

"Building the Great Wall is certainly a good idea."

"But to build a Great Wall of thousands of miles, will it consume too much national power and people's power? The great Qin has only been established for a few years, can it withstand such a huge consumption?"

Qin Luoheng was a little worried.

Ying Zheng said indifferently:
"The Great Wall is related to the safety of the Great Qin, how can we be entangled in these gains and losses?"

"The Great Wall must be repaired!"

"As for the loss, Daqin can afford it."

"It is true that the Great Wall stretches for thousands of miles, but the construction is not that exaggerated. Qin, Zhao, and Yan have built quite a few Great Walls in the past. What Daqin wants to do is to connect these Great Walls. This will indeed consume a lot of money. National strength and people's strength, but compared to stationing troops year after year, building the Great Wall is undoubtedly more appropriate."

"Furthermore."

"You underestimated the length of the Great Wall of Qin, Zhao, and Yan."

"In the Warring States Period, the main forces of Qin, Zhao, and Yan were all concentrated in the Great War in China, but at the same time they had been engaged in a long-term struggle with the Hu people in the north. In the past [-] to [-] years, the overall situation has been advancing and retreating. "

"During the past 100 years, General Qin Kaiping of the State of Yan conquered Donghu, and King Wuling of Zhao launched a few major counterattacks against Beihu after Hufu rode and shot. On the site, the Great Wall was specially built.”

"It was because of these few big attacks that Yanzhao was able to participate in the Great War in China, but the two countries did not clean up the Hu troubles thoroughly. The Donghu, Beihu, Linhu, and Loufan Hus finally merged into the war. When it came to the Huns, the Huns began to grow bigger.”

"In the middle of the Warring States period, Zhao State began to focus on fighting against Qin State, and began to be on the defensive against the Huns in the north. Therefore, Zhao State has been constantly building the Great Wall, and Yan State is also the same. With the rise of the Huns, they forced us to Under the pressure of Qin and the pressure of the Xiongnu, Yan and Zhao finally chose to fight against Qin and built the Great Wall to drive back the Xiongnu."

"The same goes for Great Qin."

"Until the unification of the world, Qin's main defense against the Xiongnu was defense. During the years of confrontation with the six kingdoms, Qin had been building the Great Wall. After the Northern Expedition, what Qin had to do was to connect these Great Walls."

"The consumption of national power and people's power is not as exaggerated as you think."

"Furthermore."

"If Yunzhong, Yanmen, Dai County, Lelang County and other counties are not protected, even if the Huns are repelled, they will come back sooner or later. The land of Hetao is very fertile. If the Huns continue to occupy it, it will not take long Rejuvenate."

"This is something Daqin will never allow!"

"Another reason why the Great Qin built the Great Wall was to enclose all these fertile lands within the territory of the Great Qin and take them completely for themselves. Without suitable horse grazing land, even if the Xiongnu wanted to be strong, they could only be powerless. "

"Do you understand now?"

Qin Luoheng gave a long salute.

He got it all.

Daqin's series of actions did not intend to be a good neighbor with the Xiongnu, but to completely eradicate the Xiongnu with both soft and hard methods.

Da Qin is too familiar with the Huns.

The Xiongnu is like a mirror of Qin Dynasty.

The Great Qin made its fortune by conquests from the east to the west, while the Xiongnu grew stronger by plundering everywhere. The Great Qin was good at raising horses, and the Huns were good at riding and shooting. There is not much difference between the two in essence. called barbarians.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, the Qin State was directly called Di Qin by the princes, and the old Qin people were also called Yi Di.

Great Qin unified China.

The Xiongnu unified the grassland.

The only difference between the two is that Qin was born in China, while the Xiongnu chose to roam the grasslands because of their nomadic nature.

It is precisely because he is too familiar with the Xiongnu that Daqin knows how to deal with the Xiongnu, and has prepared a countermeasure from the very beginning, but in the past, due to priorities, he could not make a move. Now that the Xiongnu chooses to take the initiative to attack, Daqin will naturally not Let go of this great opportunity.

but.

Qin Luoheng felt that it was not enough.

The Great Wall separated the inside and outside, which was helpful for the Great Qin to march, but the grassland was too vast.

If the Xiongnu insisted on fleeing westward, Daqin would be beyond his reach. When the Xiongnu regained a certain amount of vitality, Daqin would be very uncomfortable.

There is no eternally prosperous dynasty in the world.

The same is true for Daqin.

The reason why the Great Qin was able to suppress the Xiongnu forcefully was mainly because the Great Qin was still in its heyday. If the Great Qin began to decline and could not suppress the Huns, the nomads would surely make a comeback.

What the chief official of Qin said is a long-term strategy.

It is only feasible to push forward with one pawn every day, but the world is unpredictable, and no one knows what the direction of the Great Qin will be in the future. If it is true, as the first emperor said, the Great Qin will last forever, and the advance with one pawn that day is undoubtedly the best s Choice.

If the Qin Dynasty cannot remain strong for a long time, this method, once the Qin Dynasty weakens or perishes, this gap period will definitely make the grassland rise again, and the tragedy in history may repeat itself again.

and.

In Qin history, the second generation died!

Qin Luoheng said in a deep voice:

"The kid thinks this strategy is a bit inappropriate."

"This strategy has a long-term perspective, but it is based on a century or a thousand years. The world is impermanent, and no one can be sure about the future. If the Qin Dynasty falls, the grassland principle will definitely come back. I think Daqin's strategy for nomads should be flexible. .”

"Not only should we look long-term, but also focus on the present!"

"Daqin should weaken the nomads in a planned way, so that nomads will lose their combat power step by step. Only in this way, when Daqin is weakened, you don't have to worry about being backlashed by the grassland, and you can handle internal political affairs more calmly, and give Daqin more Wiggle room."

There was a strange look in Ying Zheng's eyes, and he said, "Tell me what you think."

Qin Luoheng said:

"As the chief official said, Daqin and the Xiongnu want to communicate with each other for business travel."

"Daqin lacks meat, and the grasslands are suitable for grazing. The Xiongnu are nomads. They are good at grazing. Daqin can exchange goods with the Xiongnu for cattle and sheep. Of course, iron and copper are strictly prohibited from leaking, but salt and spices Such things can indeed be sold to the Xiongnu.”

"Daqin shouldn't be thinking about corrupting the Xiongnu."

"Great Qin should regard the Xiongnu as its own servant country, and let the Xiongnu pay tribute regularly every year. In addition to a large number of horses, the necessary tribute should include a large number of mares, and even mares are the key."

"The power of the grassland lies in the horse."

"They come and go like the wind, and it is very difficult to completely eliminate them, but once they leave the horse, under the might of the Great Qin army, they can only be slaughtered. What the Great Qin has to do is to let these nomads gradually get off the horse. come down."

"The dismounted nomad poses no threat to Daqin."

"In the past, even if Qin, Zhao, and Yan defeated the Huns, most of them only asked for good horses in order to expand their combat power. Limit the number of horses."

"Let the nomads with two or three horses and one person gradually become one person and one horse, and then several people and one horse. Without horses, the nomads will directly become lambs to be slaughtered. Daqin can slaughter them at will. When the nomads can only When singing and dancing, you will naturally blend into Daqin."

There was approval in Ying Zheng's eyes.

Shen said:
"Your idea is indeed unique, but if you can think of this consequence, how could the Huns not think of it? How could they easily put themselves in a desperate situation?"

A cold look flashed across Qin Luoheng's eyes.

Disdain:
"If they don't give it."

"Then grab it!"

"It has always been the nomads who went south to grab things from China. Now that the Great Qin is strong, it should be the other way around. Big fists are the last word. How can they be unwilling?"

"Who dares to stop, Daqin will kill whoever!"

"If the Huns swear to die, they will kill the Huns."

"As long as the Great Qin is stronger than the Huns, the Huns can only have two choices, either obey or die. There is no third choice, and Great Qin will not give them a third choice."

"Among countries, the strong take all!"

"Because the Great Qin is stronger than the Xiongnu, the Great Qin will rule over everything the Huns have. This is the grassland law they practice on the grassland, and this should also be the Great Qin's attitude towards nomads!"

"The strong will always be strong, and the weak will always be weak!!!"

Hearing Qin Luoheng's words, Ying Zheng nodded in satisfaction.

Qin Luoheng mentioned that controlling the mares is considered unique, and then he proposed that the strong dominate everything, which made Yingzheng's eyes shine even more.

"It makes sense." Ying Zheng gave a rare compliment.
