Chapter Seventy-Five: What Wang Jian Sees
。 Xianyang came with a decree ordering him to go to Xianyang to participate in the council. Meng Tian hesitated in the room, I don't know whether to promise or veto, Xianyang's will is not the right time, the autumn harvest season, the time period of the Hun invasion, although in recent years, there have been very few Huns to attack, in case they go away, what to do with the large-scale invasion of the Huns, this thousand miles of frontier, who can protect on their behalf, if their brother Meng Yi is there, but his brother and Emperor Qin are still trapped in Mount Tai.
If it weren't for this season, he would definitely go there happily, Daqin is undergoing drastic changes, although he is on the border, he can still feel it. The fire pit from Xianyang warmed the entire thousand-mile border defense line, from the Great Wall of Qin to the Great Wall of Zhao and the Great Wall of Yan, and the soldiers' families even sent new clothes and shoes to the soldiers. Recently, it has been rumored that several soldiers have brought them the "Art of War" by the soldier saint, "It's too scary, there is wood!"
Even Meng Tian himself accompanied Emperor Qin when he was a teenager, and hurriedly read it in the library of the Great Qin Imperial Family, laying a solid foundation for his military avenue. Years of asking for nothing. Of course, the easiest way is to ask Emperor Qin, who grew up with him since he was a child, but he can't open his mouth, and it's worth it to show the merits of three generations of his family. This is a family heirloom.
Meng Tian was curious about what happened in the interior of the Great Qin Dynasty. What happened to Daqin can make a Qianshou family have the military holy book "The Art of War". His Majesty has not returned for three years, and he has guarded the frontier day and night for Daqin for three years, and has not gone to court. Whatever the reason, this trip to Xianyang City must be made, unless there is definite news that the Xiongnu will attack the Great Wall of Qin on a large scale. The 300,000 Qin troops are in their own hands, and in order to reassure the ministers of Xianyang, they must also go there.
It's okay that the Great Wall has been built, but what I'm worried about is those important loopholes, the Great Wall that is not connected between Qin and Zhao, and the Great Wall between Yan and Zhao are all loopholes. To maintain the security of this thousand-mile border defense is also very difficult for these 300,000 Qin veterans who are enough to pull out the city and destroy the country. The three thousand sons and daughters of the Montessori family are all guarding the border passes, and even the entire family has moved to such a bitter cold place. If the border defense is broken, the Montessori clan will be the first to be exterminated.
Meng Tian carefully arranged every line of defense here, extended the secret posts and scouts to 300 miles away from the Great Wall, and after telling the heads of all ten thousand households, he set off for Xianyang to see the prince of the prison country who had never been seen before.
..................
Meng Tian from the sparsely populated frontier, gradually to Qindi, eyes lit up, different from the Chi Road, cement road, wide and convenient, especially the connection between cities, even reached the same as Xianyang, 5 car peers standard. There is also busyness, and the biggest feeling for Meng Tian is that everyone is very busy and busy. The scene of thousands of people harvesting together at the same time, ten thousand people working together, men, women and children go into battle together.
This is not a place, but the entire land of Daqin, as if the thousands of Qiantou of the entire Daqin suddenly tiled into Meng Tian's eyes, they were cheering for the joy of this harvest, cheering for happy days, and cheering for a better life in the future. The entire Qin Land seemed to come alive, full of the breath of life.
"This is the land of Kyushu after unification!" Meng Tian muttered to himself in disbelief, far more beautiful than he imagined.
Meng Tian was suddenly a little impatient, and wanted to hurry to Xianyang to see the center of the world, the most prosperous and majestic capital, which took more than a hundred years to build on the mountain.
At night, Meng Tian asked with a haggard and helpless face, "How many miles have you traveled today?"
"General, today we waited, and we traveled 50 miles. One of the guards replied.
"50 miles," Meng Tian's mouth grew up, and suddenly he didn't know what to say, Xianyang, which was originally accessible by cavalry in three days, only walked 50 miles today, which was not as good as walking a third of walking. "When did these Qiantou men have a carriage in their hands, pulling thousands of loads of grain and walking on the official road. "It's terrible, the cars are crowded, the people are crowded. I never knew that there were so many people in our Great Qin. "Since you can't walk and are stuck in traffic, "find a nearby village to rest and travel in the evening." Meng Tian said to the 10 guards who accompanied him.
I heard that there was a general who wanted to take a break in his cooperative, and the popularity of the cooperative was extraordinary, and a group of people greeted Meng Tian and others at the entrance of the village. The burned wheat straw lit up the entire village, and a bonfire party was started for Meng Tian and others. Killing chickens and slaughtering pigs is fun, Daqin has not seen a regular Qin army of more than 10 people for a long time, except for those who go home to visit relatives. Meng Tian and others were ceremoniously received.
"General, it's been a long time since there has been a sergeant in the village, but where there is a war, the general will see if the sons and daughters of our village can see if they can get into it. The old man pointed to the dozen or so tall and strong men who were standing up. These strong men must be recruited as elite soldiers 10 years ago, and each of them is powerful, and at that time, the leaders of the Qianqian were all malnourished, and they were all in their own hands.
"As far as General Ben knows, there has been no war in the world recently, and Great Qin has no plans to recruit troops again. Meng Tian told the truth.
"Alas, it's a pity. The old man said with a look of regret. "I thought there would be a war. ”
"Now, the world is unified, when you can enjoy this peaceful event!" Meng Tian disagreed, and the old man was happy when he heard the battle.
"It's good, it's just that there has been no war for many years, and it has faded out of the smell of birds. Not adapting!" The old man took a sip of the homemade wine.
Meng Tian: "............" Meng Tian planned to change the topic, "Uncle, what is the harvest this year?"
"Speaking of this, it's really sad," the old man sighed, "This year's village is more new than last year, and ten granaries still can't fit it." The five grains in the village are enough to feed the village for three years. Li is encouraging everyone to make sake and consume last year's old grain. "General, why don't you come here?"
"No, you can't drink alcohol in the army. Meng Tian refused. "You babies, how do you eat meat and pick fat and thin. Meng Tian asked suspiciously.
"Today's baby, unlike we used to, has a meat a year, even if it is a fruitful year, eating meat must be fat. Nowadays, it's the other way around, picking thin people and not eating fat ones, and the same is true for our grandchildren. "They have caught up with the good times, there are eggs every day, and there are meat every month. ”
In the middle of the night, the old man came to see him off, and the guards were holding seven or eight eggs one by one, and four or five were stuffed in their chests. "General, you have to remember that in case of conscription, don't forget the baby in our village. ”
What Meng Tian didn't want to accept at first, in his mind, these were too precious for the Qianshou. I don't want to help with conscription, because the war will kill people.
How do you know that the old man said, "There are thousands of hens in the village, laying hundreds or thousands of eggs every day, and the village babies, if they are not forced to eat, don't want to eat eggs anymore." Don't say no. ”
Meng Tian took his own soldiers and whipped his chariots and horses on the uninhabited official road in the middle of the night. The events of the evening are vivid, and he said, "It seems that this, the young prince of the prison state, has embarked on another path for Daqin." ”
It is different from the previous implementation of the Shangjun Law in Daqin, "the people are weak and the country is strong, and the country is strong and the people are weak." Therefore, a country with a way is for the weak. "The policy of the weak.
