Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 109 The Hopeless Order of Seeking Talent
Among the Twelve Qin Cangs, apart from Xianyang Cang and Shu Cang, only Ao Cang is the largest.

Since Hedong County is the center of defense of the Great Qin Empire, only Ao Cang has been able to bear the rations of hundreds of thousands of troops in one fell swoop.

It's just that Hedong County fell into Xiang Yu's hands, and now it belongs to Wei State.This not only made the food and grass of the Great Qin Empire tight, but also caused loopholes in the defense of Hangu Pass.

Hu Hai thought about capturing Hedong County more than once, so he ate Ao Cang and invited the world to fight.It's just that this is just an idea, which is not mature at the moment.

So, under the current situation.Ensuring the surplus grain in Guanzhong has become the top priority.The army and the people are advancing side by side, and no one can be left behind, whether it is spring plowing or military food reserves.

Both Hu Hai and Wei Liao are well aware of this point.Therefore, regarding taxation, it is extremely important to look at.

Having experienced the Great Qin Empire's unification of the six countries by force, they naturally knew that the only way to rebuild the Great Qin was to rely on strong force.

Qin people are warlike and not afraid of war.At this moment, it is fully reflected.

……

"Masters!" Hu Hai sat up straight and straightened his face, and said: "At present, the three princes and nine ministers of the Great Qin Dynasty only have Zuo Xiang, Guowei, Tingwei, and the rest are missing."

"With the inadequacy of the three lords and the nine ministers, the state affairs cannot be effectively run. This is an urgent and urgent matter for the empire that must be resolved!"

……

Hu Hai sighed heavily: "Now the Great Qin Empire is in a corner, and the Shandong countries regard the empire as an enemy. The country has no great talents. Although the national captain is strong, he seems to be alone. Dear friends, what can you do to solve my worries?"

……

"His Majesty!"

Wei Liao stood up, bowed deeply, and said: "Nowadays, the empire's civilization and military are withered, and if you want to enrich the court, your Majesty can only learn from Duke Xiao and issue an order to seek talents in the Central Plains."

"Veterans believe that the way to rejuvenate the country is people-oriented, which has been the case since ancient times. To make the empire strong, it must not rely on a few people such as veterans. Now that the opportunity has come, it is time to issue an order to seek talents from all over the world to strengthen Qin!"

Wei Liao's words sounded like a drum in the evening and a bell in the morning in the main hall of Xianyang Palace, which moved the hearts of Da Qin Wenwu present.

……

"A virtuous order..."

Hu Hai knew that Duke Xiao's order to seek talents broke the prejudice that Shandong scholars did not serve in Qin Dynasty.In addition, Shang Jun Wei Yang was born out of nowhere, reformed and strengthened Qin, breaking the world structure of princes and Qin in one fell swoop.

It's just that he knows better that the present is not the Warring States period. Back then, the world humbled Qin, but he didn't collectively fight against Qin.When a duke of filial piety seeks the virtuous, it is natural that scholars from all over the world compete to enter Qin.

Now the name of Tyranny of the Qin Dynasty is spread all over the world, and everyone knows it.Moreover, all the countries in the world will inevitably carry out a talent blockade against the Great Qin. It is extremely difficult to seek talents and strengthen Qin.

Hu Hai mused and didn't speak, just looked at Wei Liao, waiting for him to continue.

……

Wei Liao withdrew his smile: "I think about it, the talents of today's world are all in Shandong. Your Majesty, if you want to strengthen Qin, you have to issue an order to seek talents!"

Hu Hai knew that Wei Liao just didn't explain clearly that the land in Guanzhong was the homeland of the Great Qin Empire.The talents in Guanzhong were all killed by him, or they chose to retire.

With this in mind, Hu Hai left the case, bowing his hands solemnly: "The captain of the country will see the sun through the clouds to solve the confusion in Hu Hai's heart. I will live up to the captain's loyalty and seek the country."

Wei Liao bowed deeply: "Your Majesty, please issue an order to seek talents, rectify the administration of officials, and consolidate the foundation of our great Qin."

When Hu Hai returned to the case, he couldn't help laughing: "What Guowei said was exactly what I thought. The Great Qin Empire fell apart, and I was the first to blame. If the Great Qin is not prosperous, I will have no face to see my ancestors!"

……

After being silent for a long time, Hu Hai withdrew his smile and glanced at the court and field civil and military: "It's just the captain of the country, how can I write this order to reflect the sincerity of my great Qin?"

The promulgation of the Order of Seeking Talents is just an order, a matter of one thought.But the results brought about by the Order of Seeking Talents are what Hu Hai needs most at the moment.

Wei Liao was silent for a while, then sighed, and said: "Since ancient times, there are false and true in seeking talents. Those who strive to be strong seek talents, and those who seek fame and reputation also seek talents."

"Your Majesty, I think it is enough to reactivate the filial duke's order to seek talents. Since ancient times, the sincerity of seeking virtuous men has never been better than that of filial dukes!"

"What's more, there is a lesson from Shangjun and Xiaogong, which can arouse the heart of scholars to serve Qin!"

……

"it is good!"

Standing up against the case, Hu Hai said in awe, "Just according to the words of Guowei, immediately send the Black Ice Platform to spread the news of the order to the world."

"Yes!"

……

Finally, Hu Hai glanced at the county guards in various places, and said with a smile: "Today's court meeting is over, all the county guards from all over the country have entered the prime minister's mansion, the officials are governed, and the people's feelings are in the state mansion."

"Yes!"

Hu Hai originally wanted to solve the trivial matters of the eight counties together, but at the moment he is mentally exhausted and physically weak.In desperation, he had to settle for the next best thing.

The important matters of each county are prepared in the national government, so as to solve them.

……

Walking out of the main hall of Xianyang Palace, Hu Hai felt a little tired.At present, all the great talents are in the Shandong camp.There are only a handful of people who can really be like Shang Jun and strengthen Qin alone.

But whether it is Zhang Liang, the sage, or Fan Zeng, the sub-father, they all have enmity with Qin.Xiao Hezuo and Liu Ji never leave.The only ones who have a chance are Chen Ping and Han Xin.

It's just that Hu Hai knows that whether it's Chen Ping or Han Xin, they are all under Xiang Yu's command at this time.Perhaps in less than a month, both of them will appear in Liaodong.

It is precisely because of this that he agreed to Wei Liao's proposal and issued an order to seek talents from all over the world.

……

"Your Majesty, don't you have any hope of seeking talents?" Han Tan unconsciously approached.

Hu Hai's face was as frosty, and he was as silent as iron.It took a long time before he said softly.

"At present, the Great Qin has three major weaknesses. First, the foundation of Qin Fa has been damaged, and the majesty of Qin Fa is not as good as before. Second, the loss of all parts of the Kanto, the hearts of the people and the army have deviated."

"Thirdly, the Great Qin has not enough soldiers to fight. In the imperial court, the civil servants and military generals are all gray-haired and green and yellow."

"What's more, the kingdoms of Shandong locked Qin, and the structure of the world is like the Warring States period. The countries were just established, and they are not comparable to the Warring States period. At this time, scholars in the world have a lot of choice, and it is not because of the Great Qin Dynasty!"

Without hesitation, Hu Hai said, "This time, if there is no scholar to come, the Great Qin Empire will become a laughing stock in the Central Plains."

……

"Your Majesty, what should we do now?" Han Tan frowned, he heard difficulties from Hu Hai's words.

"Wait!" Hu Hai stared in the direction of Hangu Pass with his eyes like a torch, and said, "It will be only a few months before the Order of Seeking Talents is promulgated, so I'm afraid there will be no movement!"

……

"Your Majesty, it's time to rest!" After a long silence, Han Tan couldn't help but speak.

"I know!"

……

Having not rested for two consecutive days, Hu Hai was listless and lost his appetite at the moment.He ate a pot of soup cakes indiscriminately, waved back Han Tan and others with their clothes and slept.

The reason why he didn't sleep was because of his resistance to the harem.For the concubines left behind by the original body, Hu Hai is a clean freak and doesn't want to be contaminated.

The only thing that made Hu Hai feel relieved was that the original body did not leave any heirs.

……

Thoughts flickered in his mind, Hu Hai looked at the moonlight outside the window, and thought of a lot for a while.
