Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 169 Zhang Cang's Strategy
The great cause seems to be planned slowly, and cannot be expected overnight.

With a simple sentence, the fiery heat in Hu Hai's heart suddenly cooled down.Standing on the long case, Hu Hai sighed.

"pity……"

Chen Ping's words were one-sided, and he only questioned Wei Liao's strategy.But Hu Hai knew that this was just Chen Ping's euphemism.

After all, Wei Liao's seniority and status are there, and Chen Ping has to consider Wei Liao's face.

However, Hu Hai knew clearly that in fact, Wei Liao denied Wei Liao's strategy of sending troops to the Shandong kingdoms to unify the world from three aspects.

Just because of his status, Chen Ping's answer was not too sharp.

The few items that Chen Ping stated just now were very clear and to the point, every sentence pointed to the flaws in Lieutenant Liao's strategy.

With Hu Hai's thorough understanding of the current Great Qin Empire, he naturally understood what Chen Ping said.It should be said that Chen Ping's foresight is enough to take on the important task of governing the country.

His heart was rolling, Hu Hai was more sober than anyone else.He knew that what he needed, and what the government and the people of the Great Qin Empire needed, was a set of rejuvenating strategies that could boost the morale of the people of the country.

Guowei's big strategy, although it can be done, can't be implemented at this moment.

Thoughts flickered, Hu Hai fell into deep thought for a long time again.He thought that his expectations of Chen Ping had been too high.

As a generation of talented people, Chen Ping was unable to come up with a real plan.Thoughts flickered in his mind, Hu Hai knew that Chen Ping had no experience in governing a country after all.

Even if there is an unparalleled talent, without the experience of running a country, how can he have the talent to plan the overall situation.

Hu Hai knew in his heart that great talents emerged one after another.There are too few people who can shake the world as soon as they make a move in a real sense, like a god.

At this time, Zhang Cang stepped forward: "Your Majesty, the minister of the state: the national lieutenant's unrivaled strategy relies heavily on military struggles. It seems to be a long-term plan, but it is actually a short-term plan."

"A schemer must base his current national strength on the foundation. The Qin Empire's new army has not yet expanded, and it will be difficult to swallow the world with [-] people!"

"Now the Great Qin Empire has lost its vitality, and it is simply not enough to fight against all the countries in the world. According to my calculations, if you want to fight in the east, you can't win without 30 elite soldiers."

"It takes two years to expand the army and train the soldiers. On the other hand, the only arable farmland in the state of Qin is nearly one million mu in Guanzhong, and the rest is mountainous and vast, which cannot provide the rations for hundreds of thousands of troops to fight for a long time."

"Therefore, Guo Wei's plan is almost impossible."

There was a gleam of light in Zhang Cang's eyes, and the whole person looked solemn, and continued, "Your Majesty, I think that the strategy of the Great Qin Empire going east can be divided into two phases."

"The first three years are quiet, and the next ten years are dynamic. Within three years, keep a low profile and advance vigorously to recuperate, and unknowingly expand the country."

"While enriching the national strength, on the other hand, continue to train the army and reorganize the army. This is the strategy for the first time."

"Three years later, when the new army is trained and the big warehouses of Daqin are filled, only in this way can we go east in a big way, with a long-term plan."

"If you don't accumulate steps, you can't make a thousand miles. If you don't think about an inch of merit, you can't achieve a great cause. May your majesty think calmly and plan for the long-term prosperity of the Great Qin Empire!"

……

"Crack!" Hu Hai slapped the table and said, "Ting Wei's words are very much in line with my wishes. From now on, this strategy will be the long-term strategy of the Great Qin Empire."

"Yes—" For a moment, the three lords and nine ministers in the study all shouted in unison.

For a quarter of an hour, the entire study was silent.Hu Hai crouched on the long table, pondering over and over motionlessly.After a long silence, he suddenly got up and said.

"Prepare the car and leave the palace, Guowei Mansion!"

"Yes!" Han Tan echoed and strode away.

At this moment, in Guowei's mansion, Wei Liao looked through the news from all over the world.Sometimes nodding, sometimes shaking his head, he never thought that he would be a national captain again.

Wei Liao is a real military strategist, because of this.His dream has always been to become a famous general galloping on the battlefield.

After all, influenced by the atmosphere of the Warring States period, the national lieutenants in this period were not actually the commanders-in-chief of the three armies, but only military ministers who dealt with daily military affairs.

In ordinary days, what a lieutenant of the state should do under the control of the prime minister's mansion are: recruiting soldiers, training recruits, preparing military supplies and food, building weapons and equipment, coordinating the defense of the fortress, etc.

Guowei is not the highest military position in the Great Qin Empire, and he does not lead troops to fight.Once there is a war in the Great Qin Empire, the general who leads the troops is the real commander of the army.

In troubled times, there are endless battles, and there must be constant military battles.The general is the supreme commander of military affairs in a country, and his title is equal to that of the prime minister who governs the country, which shows his prominent status.

For example, Wu Qi of Wei State and his successor Pang Juan were always top generals.General Tian Ji of Qi, Le Yi, general of Yan, Lian Po and Li Mu, generals of Zhao, and Xiang Yan, generals of Chu.

The three generations of generals of the Great Qin Empire, Bai Qi, Wang Jian, Meng Tian, ​​etc., were all famous generals who emerged in the battle of commanding troops.

From the beginning to the end, what Wei Liao wanted to be was just such a famous general, not a national captain in charge of military affairs.

However, due to fate, Qin Shihuang taught him to be a national captain.Now let Qin Ershi let him continue to be the captain of the country, which makes Wei Liao very helpless.

Wei Liao was very silent for a while, so he could only do his best to make suggestions for the Great Qin Empire.

Because of this, Wei Liao began to study and plan the future military struggle of the Great Qin Empire.Wei Liao was born in a military family, and all his life he has learned is the art of fighting on the battlefield.

……

"Report to the Guowei: Your Majesty has arrived and has entered the gate!" A military officer hurried over to report.

Hearing this, Wei Liao was startled, he didn't have time to think about it, he dropped the bamboo slips in his hand and went out, before reaching the stone gate of the back garden, he saw Hu Hai walking towards him with only Han Tan.

"Guo Wei Wei Liao, see Your Majesty!"

"Excuse me." Hu Hai smiled and gave him a hand, and smiled slightly: "The lights are so bright, hasn't the captain of the country rested yet?"

Wei Liao was not used to joking, and when he heard Hu Hai's question, he quickly replied, "There are still some documents that have not been processed, and I have to deal with them overnight."

"Nowadays, the world is racing against time. For the revival of the Great Qin Empire, I dare not slack off!"

"There are too many documents to deal with?" Hu Hai was very interested. He strode to the wind lamp, and after a little closer look, he was surprised, and said, "Guowei, but something big happened?"

"Your Majesty don't need to worry, it's just something about the new army, it's being trained into an army." Wei Liao waved his hand and couldn't help sighing.

Hu Hai sighed in his heart: "The new army is only [-], Guo Wei, if the new army is successful, can it go east to Hangu Pass and compete with the world?"

……

Hearing this, Wei Liao's heart skipped a beat.In an instant, he already knew that Hu Hai must have come here for the purpose of writing a letter!
