Ying Zheng was also speechless by these words, this Li Yang is really amazing every time, and if he doesn't stunned everyone, it seems that he can't prove that he is different.

Ying Zheng was speechless in his heart, but he wanted to hear what tricks Li Yang could tell, so he asked: "Li Yang, you are really so loud, you dare to say that relying on the army to quell the chaos is useless!" If you can't make a point, I won't be able to spare you. ”

Everyone also nodded and looked at Li Yang, obviously if he couldn't come to a reason, everyone would definitely attack him in groups.

Li Yang smiled: "Your Majesty, you have wronged the minister, how dare the minister talk nonsense." There is indeed a reason why the minister said this. Has Your Majesty ever thought about why this rebellion of thieves could have such a momentum, is it really as they said under the banner of anti-violence Qin Hu? ”

"Obviously, no! Your Majesty is now a year old, and he has lightly conscripted labor, abolished joint sitting, and changed the new law, which can be described as a benevolent government. Even if the people don't have eyes, they know that my Great Qin is not a violent Qin, but a benevolent Qin. The people also knew that as long as they survived this famine and waited until after the autumn harvest, with this benevolent government in front of them, the days ahead would be one of peace and contentment, and incomparable happiness. However, the people knew this, so why did they still rebel? ”

Speaking of this, Li Yang asked himself again and answered: "The fundamental reason is that there is famine, the people have no food, it is like entering a predicament and dying, and only by robbing the official food of the city can they live." ”

At this time, Zhang Han said: "Even so, the situation is particularly dangerous, and we should step up the dispatch of troops to quell the chaos, otherwise once they become the general trend, the consequences will be even more unimaginable." ”

Everyone agreed with Zhang Han's words.

Li Yang shook his head disapprovingly, and said, "Chaos, you can't be unjust." However, if you only rely on sending troops to quell the chaos, it is obviously useless, because the war is together, and the people are not able to make a living, you have pacified the chaos here, and there are new chaos people elsewhere, and the world is full of famine and displaced people, and the spark of the anti-thief can set the prairie on fire, so just relying on sending troops to quell the chaos is just a vicious circle. ”

After everyone listened, they also frowned, because what Li Yang said was not completely unreasonable.

In the face of famine, are the people really willing to sit back and wait to starve to death? Obviously, no one really wants to starve to death, and when it comes to a desperate situation, as long as there is a thief shouting, they will instantly gather into an army, so it is really not easy to put down this chaos.

Zhang Han said: "According to what the prime minister said, is it possible for them to make trouble, and for them to rebel?" I have hundreds of thousands of iron horses, and I can't kill these thieves? ”

Li Yang smiled bitterly.

As a time-traveler who understands the historical process of more than 2,000 years, Li Yang knows too well what chaos can be leveled and what chaos cannot be leveled.

If it is because of the chaos caused by the rise of ideas and regimes, the use of troops can divide the victory and defeat. For example, if the princes rebel, the people of the world will not rebel together, so they use soldiers to quell the chaos, and the sword is pointed at, and the chaos is calm.

However, because of the famine of the people, the chaos that arose when the people in the world had no way to live will only get more and more chaotic, everyone is trying to survive, and if your government does not release food, they can only grab food.

The reason why the Qin State in history will die is actually for this reason, people all over the world have been forced to a dead end, and if someone comes to play a banner, the people will respond.

Although the Qin Shi Huang is still alive now, Li Yang also believes that the Qin army will be able to suppress the rebellious army, but ...... Even if you win, so what?

The entire Great Qin has become ten rooms and nine empty? The young and strong labor is dead?

This is the last thing Li Yang wants to see.

If the Qin State wants to develop, the population is especially important, and if a country doesn't even have people, what else can you do?

What's more, Li Yang chose to be an official in Qin, and he had an ideal from the beginning, that is, he did not want to see the children of China killing each other.

Because no matter how the dynasty changes, it is only the politicians and careerists who will benefit in the end.

For the people, in the civil war, defeat will become cannon fodder, and if they win, they are still the low-level people.

In the long history of more than 2,000 years, dynasties have changed countless times, but in the end, the suffering of these low-level people has continued for more than 2,000 years and has never changed......

It is precisely because of this that as an idealist, Li Yang's initial ambition was to build a prosperous and peaceful Great Qin Empire, and to create a series of advanced systems in the future to protect the people's right to live.

The direction of history will always be more progressive, so Li Yang believes that as long as an advanced system is created, even if he dies in the future, future history will only develop in a more advanced and civilized direction, rather than regress.

To put it simply, Li Yang wanted to do everything possible to shorten the original historical process as much as possible, so that advanced, civilized, and democratic could come earlier. For example, through his efforts, 500 years later, China will have an advanced sense of human rights and democracy, or 800 years later, if China really has human rights and democracy after 1,000 years, it will also shorten the historical process by 1,000 years.

For Li Yang, a traverser, this is the meaning of his struggle.

After all, as a modern person, since he came to this era unexpectedly, if he only lives for money and power, and there is no meaning in his heart, what is the difference between him and a salted fish?

Li Yang didn't argue with Zhang Han, and said directly to the emperor: "Your Majesty, send troops to quell the chaos, the more peaceful the more chaotic, and the symptoms cannot be cured." The minister suggested that while sending troops to quell the chaos, it is also necessary to solve the problem of famine among the people at the same time, so that the chaos can be easily quelled by grasping both hands together. ”

Ying Zheng nodded, although he agreed with Li Yang's method, he said helplessly: "You are reasonable, but the treasury is also without food, how to solve this famine?" ”

Li Yang replied: "Right now, only businessmen have food to revive the disaster. ”

Yes, although the Qin State is poor, it is not really without food, in fact, the gentry and nobles have rich surplus food, especially some big merchants, who are even richer than the country.

This is also why, in history, from the uprising of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang in 209 BC to the unification of the Han Dynasty in 202 BC, in seven years, the world was in turmoil, but the army also had grain and grass to sustain the war, and most of the reason was that the gentry and nobles had food.

For example, there is a relevant record in the history books that Chen Sheng captured Chen County, and a few days later, Chen Sheng ordered to convene the three elders in charge of education and the local gentry Haoqiang to hold a meeting. This is actually collecting grain and grass from them.

As a result, as soon as Li Yang's words came out, many people laughed, and Feng Qu said: "Could it be that the prime minister thinks that the businessman will be willing to help the famine for Daqin?" ”

Ying Zheng also shook his head, it was okay to ask businessmen to donate grain, but it was impossible for them to donate their family funds, for the current famine in Daqin, donating grain was just a drop in the bucket.

Zhang Han sneered: "Since the prime minister said so, it must have his own way to make the businessman shake the disaster, it is better to calm the chaos, simply let the prime minister be responsible for it, anyway, relying on me and other martial artists, in terms of the prime minister, it is just useless work, so as not to add chaos to it." ”

The generals nodded one after another: "What General Zhang said is very true, I would like to see how the prime minister of China can make the businessman revive the disaster, and how he can easily quell this chaos." ”

Didn't you say that it was useless for us to send troops to quell the chaos?

Since you're awesome, then just go on your own and see how you can calm this mess.

At this time, a group of generals wanted to see how Li Yang closed this scene.

A mouth, open mouth, self-righteous.

It is naïve and ridiculous to say that it is useless to send troops, and that businessmen are in trouble!

They don't believe that Li Yang can really calm down this chaos with just one mouth. One mouth, one hundred thousand troops? One mouth can make businessmen voluntarily donate their family assets? It's just your spring and autumn dream!
