Great Qin Emperor

Chapter 353 Innovation Chapter Great Trouble in the Desert

"Zifang, what brought you here?" Zhou Chong yelled at Zhang Liang from all the way, and said, "Zifang, brother Wei thought you were a captain of the state, and you are so busy rushing to get you here. I forgot, I didn’t expect a gust of east wind to blow you here.”

Zhang Liang laughed loudly, and said: "Brother Zhou, from what you said, it seems that my younger brother is the kind of person who forgets his origins, and he can't remember Brother Zhou when he becomes a captain of the state. Brother Zhou, do you think that younger brother is so unbearable?"

Zhou Chong blinked and said slyly, "Ask Dongfeng."

Zhang Liang lightly punched Zhou Chong's shoulder with a fist, and said with a smile, "Hello, Brother Zhou."

Zhou Chong took Zhang Liang's hand and said, "Ovary, please come in." Zhang Liang thanked, and entered the room side by side with Zhou Chong.

Chunyu Jue brought his servants to bring tea, and said, "You two brothers are chatting, I'll go get some food, you two haven't seen each other for a long time, you must have a good drink."

"Thank you sister-in-law." Zhang Liang thanked.

Chunyu Jue was blessed and retreated.Zhang Liang said with a smile: "Brother Zhou is so blessed. With a beautiful wife and a book, life is blissful. I, Zhang Liang, don't have such a good life as you. I am so busy that I feel dizzy. People say that the war is over. , the world is unified, it should be easy and relaxed, and there should not be so many things, why are things increasing instead of decreasing?"

Zhou Chong said with a smile: "As long as you are in that position, you have to be busy. This is your fate. You have to accept your fate. Brother Wei thinks that the reason why you are busier than before is that the world is unified and the blessings are wider. , the number of people has increased, and the size of the army has also increased. Of course, there will be more affairs. In this way, there will only be more affairs, not less. Don't you know that the emperor now reads more memorials than before? ? The truth is here."

Zhang Liang nodded and said: "After listening to what Brother Zhou said, I will understand. I understand why Brother Zhou would let go of the pick. It's because you are afraid of being tired, isn't it?"

Zhou Chong retired because he had made too much credit and had to retire. If he did not retreat, it would be difficult for Qin Shihuang to implement the measure of "retiring meritorious officials and advancing civil officials", not because he was afraid of being tired.This was Zhang Liang's joke, and Zhou Chong didn't care, he said with a smile, "Don't worry about the mortal affairs, and live your life in peace, wouldn't it be fun!"

"Let's get rid of the mortal affairs, live your life leisurely!" Zhang Liang commented, "Okay! It's a pity that I, Zhang Liang, don't know when I will have such a good life. Brother Zhou knows that things rarely go wrong. Brother Zhou, please guess what's important for me to come to you."

A busy person like Zhang Liang, how could he come to chat with Zhou Chong, he came here for a big deal, Zhou Chong thought for a while, pointed to the north with his right hand, and said, "Brother, can you guess right?"

With a thumbs up, Zhang Liang praised: "Brother Zhou is brilliant, and he guessed right. The younger brother came here to ask Brother Zhou about Damo. According to the report from the spies, Damo is not peaceful. Afterwards, Donghu was forced to compromise, and Donghu gave whatever he wanted. Donghu first wanted the BMW Yan family, and he gave it all. It is said that now Donghu has intensified and wants the land of the Huns. The younger brother is worried that Donghu is so greedy, and Modu is so Incompetent, if the Eastern Hu unites the prairie and the Hu people rise in the desert, it will be a huge threat to Great Qin."

Zhou Chong asked: "Does the emperor know about this?"

Zhang Liang replied: "Little brother reported to the emperor, and the emperor is also worried about this. The emperor is too busy to spare time, so he specially asked the younger brother to come to Zhou brother's place and listen to Zhou brother's opinion."

"Mr. Liaozi, do you have something to say?" Zhou Chong asked again.

Zhang Liang nodded and said: "Mr. Liaozi's opinion is the same as ours. He thinks that the Xiongnu will be destroyed by the Donghu if things go on like this. We should support the Xiongnu to suppress the Donghu."

Zhou Chong shook his head and said: "It is true that you are worried about the threat of the desert, but you must not support the Huns. Not only can you not support the Huns, but you must always be careful and pay attention to Maodun's every move. In my opinion, sooner or later, Maodun will Defeat Donghu and dominate the prairie."

After Mao Dun became Shan Yu, he was patient with Dong Hu and gave Dong Hu what he wanted. After a long time, Dong Hu thought he was timid and didn't take him seriously at all.As soon as Donghu’s vigilance was relaxed, Mao Dun thought that the time had come, and suddenly summoned the Huns’ army, marched eastward, wiped out Donghu in one fell swoop, and then turned back to defeat the Dayue Clan, finally unified the grassland, with more than [-] people who controlled the strings, and ruled the grassland.

These things hadn't happened yet, so Zhang Liang and the others naturally wouldn't know about it. They thought that the Donghu would win and the Xiongnu would lose, so they took the above measures. This is reasonable, and they can't be blamed.

These words are too unbelievable, Zhang Liang asked: "Brother Zhou, what's the truth?"

Zhou Chong asked back: "Zifang, you are proficient in strategy. Think about it, what does it mean that Maodun killed his father and became self-reliant? Does it mean that Maodun is courageous, insightful, and good at strategy?"

"That's right, Maodun is a brave man. If he unifies the prairie, he will pose an unprecedented threat to Daqin." Zhang Liang nodded and said, "After Brother Zhou reminded me, I think that Maodun is doing this for nothing. The purpose is to paralyze Donghu, and when the time is right, Maodun will definitely give Donghu a fatal blow. We should remind Donghu."

Zhou Chong shook his head and said: "It's useless. Donghu is now at the height of his arrogance. He is still a bit afraid of Huaxia, and he doesn't care about the Xiongnu at all. If King Donghu believes that Maodun will destroy him, he will not believe it even if he is killed. , he will only treat it as an idiot's dream."

Zhang Liang praised: "What brother Zhou said is very true. It is indeed too difficult to make people believe that they will fail at the most proud time."

Zhou Chong went on to say: "King Donghu doesn't believe it now, but he will definitely believe it in the future, so Zifang should send someone to inform him. It doesn't matter whether he believes it or not, as long as we remind him. When Donghu is falsely accused in the future." When Dun is defeated, then he will remember that Daqin once reminded him that he will fall to Daqin, which will be of great benefit to Daqin's attack on Hu Daye."

Zhang Liang explained Zhou Chong's unspoken intentions, and said, "Even though the Donghu will be defeated by the Xiongnu at that time, the king of the Donghu will still hold the position in the hearts of the Donghu people. As long as he falls to the Great Qin, he can use his prestige to call on the Donghu. People resisted and contained the Huns."

"Although the tree falls and the monkeys are scattered, the tree grows and its roots are deep. Even though the Donghu will be defeated by then, there will still be many branches and vines. We just take advantage of it." Zhou Chong analyzed: "It is certainly a good idea for the Xiongnu and Donghu to coexist on the grassland. Good things can be divided and controlled, but according to Zhou Chongzhi, the Hu people have always been arrogant and do not take Huaxia seriously. Whether it is the Eastern Hu or the Xiongnu, there will be a battle with Huaxia sooner or later.

"It would be good to clean up the Xiongnu after destroying Donghu, but it is impossible to do it according to our current situation. After the victory in Hetao, the Xiongnu rushed northward, and there was no police at the border, so they rashly started a war. Not to mention whether the emperor would agree, the officials would also We will not agree, and the people of the world will not agree, so we have to wait until everyone reaches a consensus that we have to fight Hu, then the time is ripe for war.

"So, Zhou Chong thought that it would be best for the Xiongnu to destroy Donghu first, and Daqin would have a praying mantis to catch cicadas, and the oriole would be behind, and he would just reap the benefits of the fisherman."

Zhang Liang said with emotion: "It is most beneficial for China to go to war before the desert is unified. It's just that the world has just been unified, and the people feel at ease. If you want to fight, you can't fight. You have to wait. Brother Zhou, how can we realize the benefits of fishing people?"
