Da Qin: Mythology and Immortal Cultivation, Starting with the Lu Sisters

Chapter 20: Use the skills of the barbarians to defeat them!
"Mr. taught me that."

Ying Zheng's expression changed a few times, and then he handed over his hands.

He just thought about it according to Zhao Chen's thinking, and it was indeed the case.

What troubled him for a long time was that the people of the Six Kingdoms Homeland were always incompatible with each other in appearance and spirit.

On the surface, due to the suppression of the Qin army, he was honest and honest.

But privately, there are undercurrents surging, causing all kinds of troubles with the participation of those remnants of the Six Nations that have not been completely eradicated.

In order to shock the people of the six kingdoms, he was thinking about traveling to the east every once in a while.

When we see the majesty of the First Emperor of Qin, we may be able to make the people of the Six Kingdoms' homeland willingly submit to him, which looks and feels the same.

But now it seems that he was thinking in the wrong direction.

Not all the people in the Six Kingdoms' hometowns yearn for their former homelands.

But because of the contrast, although the old motherland was cruel, compared to the current Great Qin Empire, it would definitely have some good aspects.

In addition, it has become inevitable that the people's hearts are getting farther and farther away from the Qin Empire due to the deliberate propaganda and narrative by thoughtful people.

The world is so big, who doesn’t know how powerful the Qin Empire is?

But the people of the six kingdoms’ homeland still have not sincerely surrendered.

It can only be explained that there are other reasons.

Ying Zheng regretted a little, why did he realize this problem only now.

If after the Qin Dynasty unified the world, it chose to give both kindness and power, focusing on allowing the war-torn people to recuperate and live a peaceful and prosperous life without being displaced, then in a few years, the old motherland would no longer care about these people. Only memories remain.

Even if he rebels, he won't really listen.

Who could hope that the Great Qin Empire that had given them such favors would suddenly turn into the homeland that ruled brutally and oppressed and enslaved the people in the blink of an eye?
Everything has two sides, and the news spread deliberately by people with intentions must be aimed at the people, making them think of the goodness of the motherland and ignore the oppression of the motherland.

Coupled with the emphasis on exaggerating the hatred of family and country, the people who just want to live their lives may also take up arms to resist the Qin Empire.

What's more, the Great Qin Empire itself had strict laws, heavy taxes, forced labor, and many other things, which also aroused the resentment of the people for a long time.

Sooner or later, the huge Qin Empire will definitely collapse in an instant!
Ying Zheng's face was a little pale. He could probably imagine how the Great Qin Empire would be destroyed based on the current development.

At present, he and many of the founding civil and military ministers are still alive, and those hidden dangers can still be suppressed.

But when he passes away, these hidden dangers are destined to explode at some point.

After an outbreak, it becomes even more difficult to suppress it.

How the Qin State was able to destroy the six major vassal states and become the Great Qin Empire today is nothing more than the Qin people's concerted efforts, coupled with laws and various measures to recruit talents, and the success of the survivors of the Sixth Generation. Well.

Ying Zheng took a deep breath and continued towards Zhao Chen: "Next, I will order the Great Wall to stop."

The hidden dangers of the extensive corvee campaign were so far-reaching that he would definitely not allow it to continue.

You must know that the essence of the Great Wall is to protect the northern part of the Qin Empire and resist the invasion of the Huns in the north.

And if the Great Wall eventually led to the destruction of the Qin Empire, it would undoubtedly be a reversal of priorities.

"Your Majesty, the Great Wall has stopped, what should the Huns do?"

Meng Tian did not expect that Ying Zheng would so decisively agree with Zhao Chen's suggestion. He quite praised the Great Wall. It would definitely be able to resist the Huns' invasion and prevent them from going south to easily herd horses, plunder property, women, and trample on people and farmers. land.

But without the Great Wall, they would need to station troops at the border day and night.

He led an army of 30 people and just defeated the Huns.

The rations and many other problems for this 30-strong army are extremely difficult to solve.

Compared to the Huns who could come and go freely, they were too passive.

There was a hint of approval in Ying Zheng's eyes, which was what he wanted to ask.

If the Great Wall stopped, it would be necessary for Zhao Chen to come up with another way to deal with the Huns.

Otherwise, the people will suffer anyway.

Rather than letting the people on the border be invaded by the Huns, it is better to exchange short-term pain for long-term peace and stability.

This is also the original intention of building the Great Wall.Building the Great Wall itself was not the first thing he thought of.

In the past, the Zhao State or Qi State, which resisted the Huns in the north, built different Great Walls.

The effect is definitely there.

As for the Great Wall, it was completely connected and built to be more complete and larger. The effect of resisting the invasion of the Huns was undoubtedly even greater.

"I don't know, sir, how should we deal with the Huns?"

Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Chen seriously. The other party asked him to stop building the Great Wall. After weighing the pros and cons, he chose to stop from the long-term perspective of the Qin Empire.

But the threat of invasion posed by the Huns in the north must be resolved.

Without a suitable method, the Great Wall may not really be able to stop.

If you want to stop using one method to solve a problem, you have to think of another way to solve the problem.

After all, the problem is here and it has not been solved yet.

Zhao Chen smiled and said: "That's easy, just destroy the Huns."

Although, he said it very simply.

But in this era, the Huns' cavalry in the north was definitely the most powerful in the world.

Even if the Qin Empire's army was able to destroy the six kingdoms and unify the world, it could not completely eradicate it, it could only defeat it.

The reason for this is that the Xiongnu were nomadic people. They had no specific place to live and could come and go as they pleased.

When you are short of something, just go south and plunder.

He robbed and ran away, and came back from time to time to invade again.

The huge border of the Great Qin Empire made it impossible for the huge Qin army to consume it for a long time.

The goal of the northern Huns cavalry was not to attack the camp, but to plunder property.

When the food in the farmland is ripe, they just grab it and run away.

And the land rich in water and grass was seized to raise horses.

The Qin army was not without cavalry, but it was far less agile and swift than the Xiongnu cavalry.

It is better at taking the enemy's head on large-scale battlefields, or acting as a vanguard and taking the lead in attacking.

What's more, on the northern grassland, if you are not careful, you will get lost, and there is not enough food and grass.

If you really take the initiative, your entire army may be wiped out.

After all, the vast expanse of grassland was where the Xiongnu galloped.

It can only be said that it is almost impossible for the Qin cavalry to destroy the Xiongnu at this stage.

Defeating the opponent, regaining the lost territory, and leaving precious time for the Qin Empire to build the Great Wall is the limit of what can be achieved.

Meng Tian frowned. He felt that Zhao Chen might not know the situation of the Xiongnu, so he also reminded:
"Sir, I have fought against the Huns in the north. They were extremely cunning. If I hadn't set up an ambush and defeated them, I'm afraid there would still be a large number of Huns cavalry coming and going freely on the border, burning, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of evil."

If this method of destroying the Xiongnu was feasible, he, the general, would have already led 30 Qin troops to crush the Xiongnu to ashes.

He sighed. It seemed that even a fairy-like existence was not omniscient and omnipotent.

The Northern Huns gave him a headache just thinking about it.

Many soldiers have long been fed up with it.

He was so cunning that he would rob and run away, and when he tried to catch up, he couldn't catch up.

And when the troops were withdrawing, the other party came back to provoke them, which was really disturbing.

Zhao Chen looked at Meng Tian who looked bored and said calmly:

"General Meng, if you want to destroy the Xiongnu, you must find the right method and use the techniques of the barbarians to control them!"
