Great Qin Emperor

Chapter 283 The World is One and the Hero Returns ([-])

Wei Liao is a national captain, also known as the Grand Marshal of the World's Soldiers and Horses in later generations. He is in charge of military affairs. He is responsible for stating a series of strategic and tactical actions, which can be understood as the deployment of destroying Chu. Liaozi thought that after the destruction of the Four Kingdoms, Great Qin was actively preparing for the war and was fully prepared. Now that Shandong is stable, the people of Shandong are looking forward to Great Qin, and the conflict between the two factions of Chu is still inextricably linked. If Chu is not destroyed now, when will it be? How to fight this battle, Liaozi thought that Mister Zhou must have already made up his mind to store grain and soldiers in Shandong, why didn't your majesty ask Mister Zhou for advice?"

The reason why he kicked the ball to Zhou Chong was because of his trust in Zhou Chong. Since Zhou Chong participated in military and political affairs, he has become more and more successful and powerful. His ideas are always superior to others. The main reason is of course He is a modern person who understands many things that Qin people do not understand. From Wei Liao's point of view, he also feels inferior.

The King of Qin pointed at Wei Liao and said with a smile, "Okay, Mr. Liaozi, you've dropped the pick again. Mr. Zhou certainly has a wonderful plan, but I'd better listen to the opinions of the generals first. Mr. Zhou said in the end that the best things are always the best." He played at the end, didn't he? Han Fei, how do you think this battle will be fought?"

Han Fei stammered: "Your Majesty, Han Fei thinks this is a decisive battle and has nothing to say. But, please don't take your guard lightly, don't underestimate the enemy. There is a saying that one is not as good as Qin, and the national style of Chu is fierce. , must be taken seriously.”

King Qin nodded and said: "That's true. I believe that this battle will definitely destroy Chu, but don't think that Chu is vulnerable because it is a piece of paper. Otherwise, there will be no such thing as 'although the world is big, half of it is in Chu'." Explanation. Wang Jianmengwu, generals, you must remember this well!"

"Follow the king's order!" Wang Jian and the others accepted the order in unison.

King Qin called by name and said, "Wang Jian, tell me your opinion."

Wang Jian's challenge was even more straightforward, saying: "Your Majesty, the general's duty is to command thousands of troops to fight on the battlefield. I should know everything about the duty of the minister on the battlefield. For matters other than the battlefield, where does the Majesty say?" , the minister will fight wherever."

"Okay, Wang Jian, this pick is clean. You all share your opinion." King Qin looked at the generals, but none of them said a word. He looked at Zhou Chong intentionally or unintentionally. The meaning was very clear. Zhou Chong must have something. Good idea, just listen to him, why say it yourself.Gaining the trust of the generals is also a sign of Zhou Chong's growing prestige.

King Qin sat back on the throne and said, "Mr. Zhou, we are all waiting for your idea, so you should say it."

Zhou Chong is a humble person. Although the plan to destroy Chu is already mature, in his opinion, as long as Wei Liao and the others come up with a corresponding plan and make some supplements, he didn't expect that they would not say anything. It seems that he has to listen to him. Having said that, I had to say: "Your Majesty sees love. If you want Zhou Chong to say something, Zhou Chong dare not not say it. It's just that Zhou Chong has the guts to ask the Majesty a few questions before expressing his own opinion."

"Tell me, when did Mr. Zhou learn to bend and twist? Just be straightforward." Qin Wang was very straightforward.

Zhou Chong thanked and said, "Your Majesty, Zhou Chong may I ask your Majesty, is the destruction of Chu, Your Majesty, the foundation of eternal life, or a temporary benefit?"

"There is no need to ask, of course it is the foundation of the world." Qin Wang didn't even want to answer, he asked very strangely: "This is a very obvious truth, Mr. Zhou will not understand this truth, Mr. Zhou must have a high theory , the widow is all ears."

The King of Qin is just the King of Qin, with insight beyond ordinary people. Zhou Chong had to lament the excellent quality of King Qin from the bottom of his heart, and said: "Your Majesty, Zhou Chongzhi sees that Chu State is different from Han, Zhao, Yan, Qi and Wei, and should be dealt with separately. Since the Shang Dynasty Wu Ding first conquered Jingchu, and Jingchu just came into the eyes of China, but from the perspective of Chinese people, Chu State is not the Central Plains, and the people of Chu State are not Central Plains people. King Xuan of Zhou conquered Chu State, only accepting sacrifices symbolically The Mao used is also the same principle.

"It wasn't until the emperor of Zhou lost his virtue and the nations fought endlessly. When the people of the Central Plains were not paying attention, the state of Chu had already conquered a large area of ​​land in the south, owned the land of Jingxiang, Jianghuai, and was already very powerful, so it began to compete with other nations for hegemony. King Wen of Chu, King Cheng of Chu and King Zhuang of Chu made the state of Chu stronger and stronger, and in the eyes of the Central Plains people, the state of Chu is also a Chinese.

"However, this does not mean that the state of Chu is no different from the five kingdoms of Shandong, but there is a big difference. First, the state of Chu has a vast territory and a large number of people. Although the two factions are constantly fighting, its strength should not be underestimated. There are many types of people in Chu State. There are Jingman, Dongyi, and Yue people. The customs of these species are different from those of the Central Plains. The king wants them to maintain their own characteristics. Or should they be the same as the Central Plains people?"

The development history of Chu State is the same as that of Qin State. At first, the Central Plains people regarded it as a land of barbarians. After more than 1000 years of development, it was not until the late Warring States period that King Zhuang of Chu successfully fought for hegemony, and it officially became the land of China in the eyes of Central Plains people. .The development history of the Chu State is the same as that of the Qin State. It is to conquer those barbarians. In today’s words, they are those barbaric peoples who are not civilized, and they continue to grow together with China. The people are very different. If the relationship between ethnic groups cannot be handled well, the problem will be very serious, and it may lead to war.

According to Qin Wang Wei Liao, Han Fei and the others, Zhou Chong must have mentioned a series of strategies and tactics to destroy Chu. Unexpectedly, Zhou Chong brought up this matter. After thinking about it, this is indeed a big event, but it is not easy to attract attention. If Zhou Chong hadn't mentioned it, it wouldn't be easy to think of it, and I have to admire Zhou Chong's thoughtfulness.

"It makes sense, it makes sense!" Han Fei, Wei Liao, Li Si and the others kept nodding.

King Qin suddenly stood up, pacing back and forth, obviously he was also thinking, after a while, King Qin said decisively: "Mr. There will be no more wars, and it is not for extortion and extortion to let the people of the world live a better life. If that is the case, it is not the way of the king, but the way of robbers. As long as these species recognize my Daqin, they are willing to be my Daqin Obedient people, then they are all citizens of Great Qin and should be respected and protected, Wang Jianmengwu, you generals must remember this well."

Wang Jianmengwu and the others said in unison: "Follow the king's order!"

The King of Qin went on to say: "I, Da Qin, was originally a nomadic people on the Loess Plateau. I started my family by raising horses for the emperor of Zhou. Although this is a bit embarrassing, the widows think that a hero does not have a low birth. As long as he works hard, he is the most proud." My Daqin fortune is like a hero from a humble origin who merged with other ethnic groups on the plateau and developed into what it is today, about to unify the world.

"During these hundreds of years, my Daqin has always done one thing: everyone who is willing to serve my Daqin will be treated equally! If they have meritorious service, my Daqin will not refuse to reward them; if they have done something wrong, my Daqin will not refuse to punish them. This time you go to battle, you must tell the peoples of Chu State about this!"

This statement is equivalent to the fact that all ethnic groups are equal now. It was a great move at the time. It is conceivable that with King Qin’s words, it would be much easier to deal with the many ethnic issues in Chu. Zhou Chong had to admire King Qin’s attitude. With a great atmosphere, he said: "The king is holy!"
