Great Qin Empress's Infrastructure Handbook

Chapter 187 Ambition
The Great Wall, that is the number one military fortification in ancient times.

The Great Wall built by the Qin Dynasty, Zhao Qingrui thought of what was said in "On the Passing of Qin Dynasty", "But the Huns were more than [-] miles away, and the Hu people dared not go south to graze horses, and the scholars dared not bend their bows and complain."

The stability of Daqin is due to the Great Wall, which is a symbol of great unification.

When I came to the foot of the Great Wall, I watched countless prisoners carrying rocks to build the Great Wall, and many large machines were used.

The boulders used to build the Great Wall cannot be lifted by dozens of people. When Zhao Qingrui saw those tools, he suddenly thought of the Mo family and the public losers.

His eyes fell on those who moved the boulders. These were the prisoners of war and the criminals. They were all skinny and working with numb eyes.

They were surrounded by soldiers with whips, and anyone who didn't work hard would be whipped directly.

These soldiers not only supervise their work, but also prevent these people from rebelling, or defecting directly.

It's not that Zhao Qingrui has never seen such a scene, she has also seen the one who built the imperial tomb in Lishan, and the prisoners of Afang Palace, they are not indistinguishable from these people.

Daqin didn't treat these prisoners well. They didn't have enough to eat, they had to do a lot of work every day, and some people even died every day.

Zhao Qingrui stood beside Meng Tian, ​​watching all this silently.

"If Your Highness is unwell, let's go back." Meng Tian said seriously.

"No, take me to another place." Zhao Qingrui pursed her lips, her voice firm.

Given the chance, she would look for ways to improve the lives of some of these people.

The construction of the Great Wall is indeed necessary, but there is no need to worry, Dad is going out to fight the world, and she also believes in his ability, so the Great Wall is not so necessary.

Before that, it is still necessary to make Daqin strong enough.

Li Si looked at Zhao Qingrui, and then at the prisoners who were numb to work. He had already hardened his heart, and he had seen the situation of Lishan and Afang Palace many times.

He thought Zhao Qingrui would feel unbearable and do something, but he didn't expect her to calm down so quickly.

Walking around with Meng Tian, ​​the number of prisoners here is simply beyond Zhao Qingrui's imagination, the number is huge, no wonder hundreds of thousands of troops are stationed here.

Otherwise, I really can't hold back so many people.

"Your Highness has seen so much, do you have any thoughts?" Li Siwen's voice came.

Zhao Qingrui turned sideways and saw the smile on Li Si's face, "I have a lot of ideas, and I want to improve the situation here."

Li Si raised his eyebrows, "The minister asked Your Highness, how can we improve?"

"Let's start by letting everyone have enough to eat, and then let people make more equipment that can help in construction." Tilting her head and thinking for a while, she said, she can't be cold-blooded, this Daqin will be hers from now on, She also wants Daqin to be stronger.

These prisoners are also human beings. Daqin has only 2000 million Qianshou, so there are still too few people.

"If you're full, you should have a rebellious heart." Li Si said seriously.

"If there are rebels, just kill them." Zhao Qingrui pursed her lips. What she needed was obedience. As for those who were rebellious, it would be safer to kill them.

"If the construction of the Great Wall is completed, His Highness knows what to do with these people?" Li Si also knew Yingzheng's thoughts. As long as the Xiongnu were pacified, the construction of the Great Wall would slow down. At that time, they might even replace these people with corvée directly. .

And the whereabouts of these people is also a problem.

"Some ideas, there are quite a few of these people, when the time comes, they will be dispersed and distributed to various parts of Daqin, so as not to give them a chance to unite and recover." Zhao Qingrui said seriously.

She knew that although Li Si and the others had been assisting her honestly, in fact they had not completely surrendered.

"Then these people pretend to be the heads of Guizhou, should we treat them the same as the other heads of Guizhou?" Li Si still agrees with Zhao Qingrui, she is not as close to Confucianism as Mr. Fusu, and even the people of each family are not different in her eyes.

Although she didn't like Confucian scholars, she just played tricks on them and didn't do anything else.

He does not listen to one side and believe on the other. He also admires such a mind.

For the king, it should be so.

The problem of these prisoners is also a big hidden danger for Daqin, and there are too many things that need to be solved.

"Naturally, everyone should be treated equally."

"Your Highness, aren't you afraid that they will come back to make trouble?" Li Si looked at Zhao Qingrui, not understanding where her confidence came from. She seemed very sure that she could make these people surrender.

"In front of absolute strength, these people are nothing." Zhao Qingrui said lightly.

Meng Tian was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help but interjected, and asked curiously: "What does His Highness mean by absolute strength?"

"Naturally, it is Daqin's army. I have countless ways to improve the army." Zhao Qingrui laughed.

What she didn't say is that as long as the world is peaceful and the world is prosperous, those people can live a life without lack of food and drink. She believes that few people are willing to make trouble.

Just like modern times, no one wants to break such a peaceful life.

She hopes that one day, the Great Qin she governs will become like that, or even better.

"Your Highness, you have indeed done it. The current army is indeed much stronger than before." After a few seconds of silence, Meng Tian said seriously.

As one of the few people who knew the inside story, Zhao Qingrui took out the pages of the militia training manual and the physical training method.

Daqin's army, under her intervention, is indeed advancing in a stronger direction.

"Unknowingly, Your Highness has already done so many things for Daqin." Li Si was also one of the people who knew the inside story, feeling a little emotional for a while.

"What is this? I still have a lot to do." Zhao Qingrui smiled modestly.

There are many things in the system, and now she has no shortage of points.

After the construction of the school is completed, her points will definitely be more. Her goal is to evacuate the system mall! !

"Your Highness has lofty aspirations." Li Si was stunned for a moment, then said respectfully.

Surprised in my heart, these are nothing in the heart of His Highness, so what is considered merit?
However, this Highness has lofty ambitions, and he thinks this is a good thing.

She is not too ambitious, she has basically achieved all the things she proposed.

Meeting the Ming Lord, this is worthy of their assistance.

"Li Xiang also put a high hat on me, and it's almost the same. We should go back." Zhao Qingrui was helpless. Has this guy worked with Feng Quji for a long time and learned to compliment others?

"Hurry up and work, or you won't be allowed to eat at night." Just as Zhao Qingrui was about to leave, there was a loud shout, followed by the sound of a whip hitting the flesh.

Zhao Qingrui raised his eyes and saw a skinny middle-aged man with a fresh bloodstain on his body after being whipped. The man curled up with a painful expression on his face.
