Li Yang's expedition this time, according to the plan, first went to Shangjun, met with Wang Li's troops, and took over the military power of the 300,000 border troops of the Great Wall, and then continued to go north and send envoys to the Xiongnu.

Xianyang went to Shangjun, marched normally, and could be reached in a few days.

Therefore, in the next few days, Li Yang was busy marching and hurrying, and he was bored along the way.

On the contrary, after Li Yang set out on the expedition, some ministers were in turmoil!

Not because of anything else, just because before the expedition, the emperor's sentence to unify the Huns, the day of triumph, the title of the king.

This is something that has caused an uproar for many people.

If Li Yang is really a feudal monarch, it will be the first person to be a feudal monarch since the abolition of the feudal system and the change of the county system in Great Qin. This kind of grace, this kind of honorable status, but no one can compare with it.

It is precisely because of this that some of the old clans who opposed the new deal were so angry that they vomited blood.

Originally, everyone recommended him to envoy to the Xiongnu in order to keep him away from the court and cause the failure of the New Deal, but who would have thought that this Li Yang would ignore the success or failure of the New Deal like this, not only accepted the task of sending the Xiongnu, but also took the initiative to take over the major matter of unifying the Xiongnu.

Fortunately, now this guy not only has military power, but also has the possibility of being crowned king.

This is really Feng Quji's party, which he never dreamed of, this is a big deviation from their original intention!

To tell the truth, they all regretted that they even recommended Li Yang to envoy to the Huns that day, where is this trick for him, it is clearly like giving Li Yang a great credit.

You must know that the use of troops against the Xiongnu has always been a matter that Meng Tian is in charge of.

And Li Yang, although he is the president of the National Council, is really responsible for the reform of the New Deal.

Moreover, according to Li Yang's own ideas before, he did plan to let Meng Tian envoy the Huns. Outcome......

It's good now, he was recommended by himself and others, but he gave him the great opportunity to make meritorious contributions to the unification of the Xiongnu, and what's even worse is that he seems to have offended Meng Tian by the way.

The more I think about it, the more angry I become, and the more I think about it, the more I feel that it is not worth it.

No, this night, Bai Zheng and the old clans ran to Feng Quji's mansion again and vented the worries in their hearts.

"Feng Xiang, we really lost a lot, we knew that Li Yang didn't care about the success or failure of the new deal, we really shouldn't recommend him to be an envoy to the Huns. Well, now that he's really leaving the court, but ...... Soon he will be crowned! Alas, we have been busy for most of the day, but we are actually busy making meritorious contributions to him! Bai Zheng was taken to the council hall by Feng Zheng, and when he saw Feng Quji, he sighed angrily.

No, to be more precise, it should be angry and the liver hurts.

Another person also said: "Yes, this Li Yang, I really don't understand how he can let go like this, and dare to stay in the north to preside over the overall situation in winter, this time...... What a mistake I made when I waited! ”

The others nodded unworriedly and said, "The emperor's favor to him is really jealous and hateful!" is willing to give him the title of king, this ...... If he really returns triumphantly this time, once he is crowned, it will be really difficult to deal with him again. ”

Speaking of this, everyone felt like they had eaten flies, and they felt like they wanted to cry without tears.

To be honest, Feng Quji also regretted it, this time it was indeed a miscalculation.

This Li Yang, the ghost knows what he thinks, and he can not care about the success or failure of the new deal.

Thinking of the number of ways that this guy doesn't play cards according to common sense, Feng Quji is also very painful.

This is completely out of the routine, it's too cheating!

Glancing up at the crowd and finding that they had the expression of a dead father, Feng Qu sighed, and then said, "Although it was a mistake this time, it is ...... If he wants to be crowned, it is unlikely. ”

"Oh?"

When everyone heard this, they immediately became interested, and hurriedly asked: "Feng Xiang, why is it difficult for him to be crowned?" ”

Feng Quji chuckled lightly and said: "If Li Yang wants to really be crowned the king, then he must first unify the Xiongnu, if he only wins a few battles, this king will not be sealed, otherwise...... Meng Tian and they should also be crowned kings, so this is unjust, it is really unfair! ”

Everyone nodded, indeed, if it was only a few victories, the emperor really could not give the emperor, after all, Meng Tian had driven the Xiongnu from Hetao to the north of Yinshan, if he wanted to be crowned, Meng Tian was the first to disagree.

Merely......

Thinking of this, everyone said: "But...... What if he really unified the Xiongnu? ”

"Unify the Huns? Oh, how easy is it to say, should you do it as easily as the next game of chess? ”

Feng Quji sneered: "I think back then, most of the main forces of the Xiongnu were in the Yinshan region and Helan Mountain region, and the force that went south to Henan was relatively weak. Moreover, the Qin State made many years of war preparations, and Meng Tian led an army of 300,000 before it took a full year to capture the Henan region. PS: (The land of Henan here refers to the south of the Wujia River in present-day Inner Mongolia and the land of the Yikezhao League, not Henan Province in later generations.) )

"You know, at that time, my Great Qin also suddenly exerted force, the Huns were not prepared, and most of the Hun soldiers in Henan were scattered tribes, so they were defeated one after another, and Meng Tian took Henan land. Then, it took another year for Meng Tian to drive the Xiongnu to the north of Yinshan. In this way, it took two years to completely return Henan to Daqin. ”

Speaking of this, Feng Qujian raised his head and glanced at everyone, and said: "Meng Tian spent two years, and he only drove the Xiongnu out of Henan, let me ask, Li Yang plans to use a winter time this time, he can unify the Xiongnu?" ”

At this moment, everyone was stunned.

Yes, Meng Tian spent two years just driving the Xiongnu out of Henan, and Li Yang, how could he unify the Xiongnu in one winter?

You must know that the Xiongnu can be a soldier who can fight when they get on the horse, and in one winter, it is difficult to achieve the plan of unifying the Xiongnu and even sweeping the livestock of the Xiongnu.

After all, if you send a large army to sweep up other people's livestock, they will definitely organize a main force to resist you.

In one winter, it would be good to be able to fight a big battle with the Huns.

It is simply whimsical to want to sweep the entire Xiongnu steppe, exhaust the Xiongnu livestock, and force it to be unable to survive the cold winter.

"So, he Li Yang has almost no chance of winning this northern expedition?"

Thinking of this, everyone was overjoyed.

Feng Quji said thoughtfully: "If you want to unify the Xiongnu, it is absolutely impossible, but it is not difficult to lead my 300,000 army of Great Qin into the grassland, and if you want to win a few battles, this battle is indispensable." ”

When everyone heard this, they all nodded.

Bai Zhengdao: "In this way, Li Yang should have seen this, as long as he goes, he will definitely be able to make military exploits, and in this way, his status in the army will also be greatly improved, which can be said to be only good, and there is no harm at all." ”

"I guess that's exactly what happened."

Feng Quji nodded, and then said with a smile: "Do you remember that when you set out on the expedition, the emperor said to Li Yang that when he unified the Xiongnu, he would make him king, but Li Yang was not half excited, why?" If the prime minister is not mistaken, he Li Yang actually knows in his heart that it is impossible to unify the Xiongnu in one winter, so when he hears the emperor's promise, he will be as calm as water and have no waves. ”

Everyone nodded suddenly and praised: "It's still Feng Xiang who sees things thoroughly." ”

Feng Qu laughed and said: "How difficult it is for my courtiers to be crowned king, if the Xiongnu are so easy to unify, then this 'king' will be too easy to get." ”

At this time, one of them said with a little worry: "However, this Li Yang can't be looked at with common sense, half a year ago, he relied on five hundred soldiers, and it only took three days to collect Pei County and Xia Xiang two cities, which is simply a miracle." This time, if he came up with another miracle, wouldn't it be ......"

"You're thinking too much!"

Feng Quji chuckled lightly and said, "Half a year ago, Li Yang's resourcefulness really created a miracle, and within three days, he collected two cities in a row. However, the battle of the Huns, how can it be compared with the chaotic people? Such a miracle will never happen a second time. ”

Speaking of this, Feng Quji said with an affirmative face: "If you want to unify the Xiongnu, there is no more than five years, and there is absolutely no possibility!" Don't say that the unification of the Xiongnu, even if it is a southern expedition to Baiyue, Tu Sui led an army of more than 500,000 troops to the south in five routes, and it took a full five years to unify. ”

Everyone nodded again and again, feeling that what Feng Quji said made perfect sense.

Baiyue, at least they have a city and a wall, if they want to fight Baiyue, they can still attack one city and one wall.

However, the Xiongnu were nomadic and extremely mobile. They often attack when they have an opportunity, and when they have no chance of winning, they flee, leaving you with no choice.

If you want to fight a decisive battle with the Xiongnu, you must use a large number of troops, and first surround their retreat before you can force their troops to fight a decisive battle, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve even a positive battle.

It is precisely because of this that Meng Tian only drove the Xiongnu out of the north of Yinshan back then, but could not annihilate the Xiongnu army like Baiyue.

At the same time, this is also why, Qin Shi Huang would rather spend five years to send Tu Sui to lead more than 500,000 troops to the south in five ways to unify Baiyue, while Meng Tian, who conquered the Xiongnu in the north, only recovered the Hetao, ended the campaign, and instead used the strength of the whole country to build the Great Wall to resist the Xiongnu, which is also the reason.

To sum it up, it is a sentence, the Huns can be driven and cannot be destroyed!

He, Li Yang, wanted to unify the Xiongnu in a winter, purely dreaming. Even if he was an immortal, it would be impossible to do it.

Seeing that everyone let go of these unnecessary worries in their hearts, Feng Qu hurriedly said: "As long as we can make the new deal fail, even if Li Yang wins a few battles in the Xiongnu, what does it matter?" After all, the New Deal is the arena for us to fight him! ”

Everyone nodded, and their hearts were worried.

On the contrary, they already have a vague idea of the future end.

Li Yang fought with the Xiongnu and had a small military exploit.

However, back to the court, the new deal has existed in name only, at this time the spring is imminent, the new deal can no longer be done, and finally the new deal land reform failed, the old clans and scholars, the new upstarts, the group of attack, for the sake of the Great Qin Sheji, His Majesty will inevitably take Li Yang to blame!

Li Yang fell, the government re-entered the hands of Feng Xiang, and the overall situation was decided!

Thinking of this, Bai Zheng and the others were immediately full of confidence, and after leaving Feng Xiangfu, they were ready to start taking action against the new deal......
