Daqin: When I return from sea, I will offer you a map of the world

Chapter 395 Maodun: Shake people, shake people for me!

In fact, the psychology and psychology of common people all over the world are roughly the same.

Due to public opinion reasons, people with dominant discourse power in the surrounding areas are still constantly smearing Qin and the First Emperor. Coupled with historical factors, Qin is indeed the invader and the one who destroyed their country.

However, their living standards are truly improving, their lives are promising, and their lives are full of hope.

Amid all the scolding and bad-mouthing, Da Qin is irreversibly getting better.

Perhaps some of them cannot distinguish the situation and think that the First Emperor is still a cruel and unjust emperor, but their simple emotions will help them make the most correct choice.

After talking and scolding, they will even scold along with them.

But if someone really wants to destroy this hard-won stability and the beautiful tomorrow that is at your fingertips, then they probably won't agree.

After experiencing dire straits in the first half of my life, I know that today is hard-won.

Regardless of the king of Qin and the king of Qi, the one who can make him live a good life is a good king.

He hopes that this is not temporary stability, but long-term stability. He hopes that his children, his grandchildren...

However, the wheel of history will not be turned by individual will. Unexpectedly, a terrifying storm is brewing under the current stability.

Money cannot be conjured out of thin air, and taxes have been reduced from fifteen to eleven, which means that Da Qin's fiscal revenue from food will be directly reduced by as much as four times.

"It is not advisable to sacrifice the interests of the country!"

At the court meeting, Zhao Si said these words openly.

"Someone has to sacrifice some of their interests for the country, but this is for the better development of the Qin Dynasty. Your Majesty governs the world, enjoys the honor of the country, rests with the country, and is a worldly minister. At this moment, it is those who are sacrificing for the country. when."

"You can't just stare at the three melons and two dates in the hands of ordinary people. You have to look further and deeper!"

This was the scene where the second order to move the royal tomb was issued, and the turmoil in the court was far more intense than the last time.

Even if Li Si stood up in person, the First Emperor endorsed it, and Zhao Si started to sophistry at the end, it would be difficult to suppress all voices.

However, it is a pity that the emperor is the First Emperor.

The most terrible thing is that the entire military probably supports the First Emperor.

It is an eternal truth that political power comes from the barrel of a gun.

No matter how loud the opposition was, it could not stop the First Emperor's determination to issue an order to move the royal mausoleum.

This time, the order to move the royal tomb was broader and deeper than the last one.

If the first order to move the royal tombs was just a pilot project, focusing on the removal of a few representative nobles, then the order to move the royal tombs this time was completely popularized throughout the world.

The list is filled with an imperial edict!
It involves more than 200 major counties and counties in the Six Kingdoms. There are not only representative nobles from various places, but also representative figures from various universities.

Rich families, nobles, and leaders of schools will gather in Guanzhong along with this decree.

A large amount of wealth and culture will flow into the Great Qin Pass, and fierce fighting will begin in the small pass to obtain a safe living space in a small space.

Of course, Legalism is an exception.

"It's going to change..."

When Tian Xin heard about it, he sighed and almost lost his grip on the shovel in his hand.

Fortunately, the farmer has obtained a piece of private land in the Five Grain Garden. Although he is not allowed to participate in political affairs after entering the Five Grain Garden, it is more comfortable.

The Mo family also has its own private area of ​​​​the Craftsmanship Bureau. It is a professional counterpart and it is easy to get in.

As for the Yin and Yang family, Zou Feng also sits in the Hangmao Military Mansion.

Law, agriculture, ink, yin and yang will survive the first bloody fight.

The remaining factions will start fierce battles within the pass to fight for the scarce jobs that have been carved up.

All contradictions and conflicts are essentially conflicts between interests and classes.

It's just that the Legalists are at the top now, and the other hundreds of schools are challengers.

Relocating representative figures from various schools of thought into Guanzhong will mean the end of the officialdom, promote fighting, and artificially create a bloody duel field, and then it will be natural selection and survival of the fittest.

"The Qin Dynasty has been unified, and it is time to finalize some of the most basic things. I have no prejudice against all schools of thought, but the ideas of some schools are really too outrageous. As a school that can start teaching, if the professor It is obviously inappropriate to have knowledge without constraints and definitions..." Zhao Si looked at Li Si.

"All I want to do is be a saint from the Legalist family, but what you want to do is actually be a saint from the Baijia family?" Li Si glanced at Zhao Si strangely.

"What Li Xiang said is far away. It is just a plan to deal with the entry of hundreds of schools of thought. I think academic development should seek common ground while reserving differences, and cannot oppose simply for the sake of opposition. Before the dispute develops, everyone should sit down and discuss the common ground. The recognized public order and good customs have been agreed in advance and are considered to be permanent. In this aspect, each of them makes a choice based on their own emphasis and cannot violate the simple feelings of the common people..."

"Every time you think about it, it comes up." Li Si rolled his eyes and looked at the tall pile of official documents on the desk and said angrily.

"Before you think about these things, let's deal with the upcoming rebellion first."

After that, Li Si threw two military reports to Zhao Si.

One of them came from Longxi, and Meng Tian reported it. According to the report sent by Mao Dun, the Chanyu of the Xiongnu, Donghu and Yuezhi had privately sent envoys to each other several times. Mao Dun speculated that the two might join forces to make some changes, and hoped that the Qin Dynasty could Take this information seriously.

The second memorial came from South Vietnam. Zhao Tuo reported that the tribes of South Vietnam started looting, and the mountain barbarians showed signs of arrogance and rebellion.

"It seems that the Donghu Yueshi no longer plays with the Xiongnu..." Zhao Si laughed after taking the memorial.

"Not only that, there are also strange movements in Bashu..." Li Si rubbed his eyebrows.

"This resistance may be far more intense than expected, and the Rong and Wushi may also take action..." Li Si shook his head.

"What I'm worried about now is that the wealthy families in Bajun and the Rong people, the Wushi, are connected."

I still have a certain understanding of Wushi from Rong and Zhao Si from Bashu.

The Wushi of the Rong people were active in the present generation of Gansu. They made a living by herding. They were also nomadic people, but they were among the first to be conquered.

As for the original identity of Bajun, it is the country of Ba. It is worth mentioning that the country of Ba is not particularly closed now. It mainly has water transportation, so Liu Bang was able to build plank roads openly and covertly to visit Chen Cang.

During the Han Dynasty, there was a serious earthquake in Bashu, which caused the water flow to change its course. Since then, Bashu has become completely easy to enter and difficult to leave, so that even Zhuge Wuhou found it difficult to change his destiny.

The Ba Kingdom, Rong people and Wushi people, are far apart.

In fact, strictly speaking, the Ba area is far from the Gansu generation and even Tibet. Generally speaking, the Bashu people of this era and the Gansu generation have the same origin, and their living habits are not very different.

As for the more serious changes that occurred later, it was mainly because the Tatars massacred the Bashu area so brutally that all ten houses in Bashu were empty. After the Huguang Reclamation, the customs and dialects in the Bashu area were completely changed.

The Rong people Wushi and Ba were successively conquered by the Qin State. The Qin State also set up counties and counties in various places. However, due to customs and national habits, these places were still in the transitional period of autonomy.

In order to completely integrate this generation into the rule of the Qin Dynasty as soon as possible, the First Emperor gave great preferential treatment to these newly conquered peoples who had a huge cultural gap with the Central Plains culture.For example, the tax collection in these special areas is not the fifteen taxes in the Central Plains, but the eleven or even twenty taxes.

And there are many supports and subsidies for farming. To put it bluntly, it is to use official energy to promote their complete transformation into a farming nation, form a lifestyle based on farming, and completely move closer to the mainstream culture of the Central Plains.

It belongs to the policy of preferential treatment for minor citizens in the Qin Dynasty...

Of course, there is more than just preferential treatment for these special regions and special ethnic groups.

The carrying of weapons in these special areas is extremely strict, and the correction of local sacrifices and customs is also more strict and cruel.

As for the order to move the royal mausoleum, which seems to be a new thing proposed by Zhao Si, in fact the First Emperor has already used it when targeting these special groups.

For example, the famous widow Ba Qing was invited by the First Emperor to live in Xianyang until her death.

The famous businessman and herdsman of the Wushi family, Wushi Luo, was also specially invited by the First Emperor to live in Xianyang until his death.

It can be seen that the reason why the First Emperor has not moved the nobles of the Six Kingdoms is probably because the First Emperor did not regard this group as a serious threat.

Yet the fact is obvious.

Again, the First Emperor greatly underestimated the destructive power of the aristocratic group to the empire, although compared to the Wushi Rong people of South Vietnam, who were always wielding swords and guns, they were more civilized and had less apparent destructive power. , but they are more adaptable to the rules and even one of the rule makers themselves, and it is easier for them to play with the rules.

And now the First Emperor has turned the table, and changes have occurred all over the world. It is hard to say who is delivering the news and secretly instigating, but the power of this group can already be seen.

It even gave Great Qin's right-hand minister Li Si a headache.

Even Zhao Si couldn't help but worry that the risk plans he had made before were not enough.

"Is there any danger?" Zhao Si asked.

"The danger is not that great... After all, Wuzhiba County is not far from the pass, and counties were established in various places earlier. The roads are smooth, and the army can reach them directly, but if they are connected together, the trouble will be great..."

"How big is it?" Zhao Si was a little confused.

"Excluding the time I have to deal with official business in various places in a day, I'm afraid I have less than two hours of sleep left."

.........

Zhao Si glanced helplessly and felt that Li Si was joking with him.

In fact, Li Si was teasing Menzi with Zhao Si.

In the current situation, it is impossible to say that there is no trouble at all. If the nobles, Bashu and the Rong people Wushi are in chaos, it will be civil strife for Great Qin.

When it comes to civil strife, no matter how good your record is, the war will ultimately start on your own territory, and there will be no victory.

It is an obvious fact that a large number of innocent people and labor force will be wiped out in this civil strife, and the wealth that should belong to Da Qin will naturally be lost as a result.

Places with fierce wars will also seriously affect local production and construction, and later reconstruction and recovery will also take a lot of energy.

As for putting Da Qin in a critical situation, or even threatening Da Qin's national destiny?

That would be to look down upon the millions of troops of Qin Dynasty and the old general Wang Jian and Wang who sat in the central government and never suffered a defeat in his life.

It is inevitable to end this chaos, and what Great Qin needs to worry about is how to end it as quickly as possible and minimize its own losses.

"The world is waiting for something to happen..."

Li Si glanced at Zhao Si, who was looking around in the hall out of boredom, shaking his head and laughing.

Should he say it or not, he really envied this boy Zhao Si.

And the other side...

Far away from Longxi.

Maodun, the new Chanyu of the Xiongnu, sent away the envoy from Donghu.

Just now, Donghu's envoy came and wanted to make an agreement with him to raise an army together, and Qimao Dun also received news of the official alliance between Donghu and Yueshi.

This also means that Donghu and Yuezhi will officially send troops to Daqin this autumn.

Modun did not agree or refuse immediately, so the other party's envoy gave Modun ten days to think about it, which was also an ultimatum to take sides.

"Hurry up and send horses to Longxi to report to Meng Tian!"

When the Donghu envoy had gone a little further, Mao Dun slapped the case and looked hurriedly.

"Why is Chanyu panicking? Aren't there still ten days left? The Qin people have taken away our fertile land in the Hetao. Even if we don't follow the Donghu Yuezhi to attack Qin, we should just sit back and watch. How can we do such an unethical thing? What happened?" Modun's subordinate asked a very simple question.

"If Donghu and Yuezhi wanted to contact the Xiongnu, they would have contacted them long ago, why wait until this time?
The Huns are weak, so waiting and watching is the way to death!
Moreover, King Donghu has always been narrow-minded. When I was the hostage of the Yuezhi, I once offended the leader of the Yuezhi. After my father was defeated by the Qin people, the Yuezhi of Donghu wanted to take the opportunity to invade the Xiongnu territory, so I asked the Qin people for help. Donghu and Yuezhi suffered a great loss.

I'm afraid they didn't want to win over me and let me join the army. The reason why I sent someone to inform Qin was because I was worried about the false story of destroying Guo! "Modun said.

"What is the false way of destroying Guo?" The minister asked sincerely.

"It's a lie to contact me to go south, but it's true to take the opportunity to invade and attack the Huns!"

Maodun, as the hero who truly unified the steppe nomads and established the Great Huns, is an undoubted hero among men.

Regardless of his national stance and personal morality, his methods as a king also have a place in history.

He sees things very quickly.

The Great Wall on the Qin border has been roughly completed, the defense line has been successfully established, and the 20-strong army has not yet been withdrawn. The border towns and major cities rely on each other.

If Donghu and Yuezhi had any brains, they would have known that it would not be easy to go south.

Although Donghu's envoys have told Modun that there will be war within the Qin State, isn't it still happening now?
The normal process should not be to wait and see first. If the Central Plains is in chaos, is it sending troops?How could anyone bother to take the lead in carrying 20 troops and the Great Wall to fight for others?
Therefore, the purpose of Donghu and Yuezhi's impatient actions must not be Qin.

Besides Qin, who else is there on the grassland?

Then only the Huns are left...

The Xiongnu was Qin's dog to check Donghu and the Yueshi. Thanks to the negotiation between the new Qin envoy Li Shiqi, the relationship between the Xiongnu and Donghu and the Yueshi was now very bad.

Mao Dun was not a fool. If something happened to him, Donghu and Yuezhi would definitely not call him.

After all, they are all nomads, and no one has too much pasture.

It was clear that they were preparing to seize the opportunity to have a quarrel under the guise of going south.

As Da Qin's loyal dog, the first thing that came to mind for Moden was of course Yao Ren.
