In the face of Li Si's theory of governing the country, the army, and the people with hegemony, Fan Zeng did not dare to agree.

He shook his head and said: "Qin started in the western border, a wild land, the people are brave and ruthless, the country is poor, and the enemy is surrounded on all sides, so Shang Jun used domineering medicine to cure it. ”

"It has been more than 100 years since Shang Jun changed the law, and although Qin has become extremely powerful, there are also great hidden dangers."

Zhao Jia asked, "What are the hidden dangers?" ”

Fan Zeng said: "Qin conferred knighthood with military merits and divided the land among meritorious soldiers, which can certainly inspire Qin soldiers to fight to the death. ”

"However, for more than 100 years, there have been countless meritorious soldiers in the Qin State, so that the land in Guanzhong has been rewarded, and if it cannot continue to expand its territory, the Qin soldiers will have no land to seal."

"Qin pawn has no land to seal, the Qin government will inevitably lose its trust to the people, how can Qin pawn serve the dead?"

"Today, the heroes stand side by side, and Qin Zongqiang cannot resist the six countries alone, if Qin wins many battles and expands his territory, there is still a vast land to reward meritorious soldiers."

"Once it encounters successive defeats, or even loses the city and land, the prestige of the Qin government will inevitably be greatly reduced, and there is no new occupation of land for the people, what should we do?"

When Zhao Jia heard this, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Qin's national policy is quite similar to that of an island nation during World War II, and only by constantly waging wars to expand its territory, and by constantly occupying land and plundering resources, can the normal operation of the huge empire be ensured.

Historically, the Qin State was indeed powerful, and was able to sweep through the six countries and unify the world with its own strength.

It is a pity that since Zhao Jia was born, the Qin State has been defeated repeatedly, and although the heritage is still rich, it has begun to shake its foundation.

This kind of national policy of awarding knights with military merits and crazy expansion is very taboo for continuous failure.

This is also why, in history, the Qin State always reported good news but not bad news, and often concealed the fact that the war was lost.

Fan Zeng continued to talk eloquently: "Qin's national policy can be strong for a while, not a long-term policy of peace and stability. ”

"If Qin swept through the six countries with this national policy, if the national policy cannot be changed, it will inevitably cause the whole country to fall into a state of reckless militarism, and the people will be overwhelmed sooner or later, so that civil strife will break out everywhere, and the national fortune will not be long in coming."

When Zhao Jia heard this, his eyes were slightly condensed, and the surprise in his heart could be imagined.

After Qin Shi Huang unified the world, he did continue to fight in the south and the north, so that the people were not able to make a living, resulting in the death of Qin II.

Qin Shi Huang's southern expedition to the north and the south, although there were great achievements, but it was not not for the purpose of expanding the territory and giving the land to meritorious soldiers.

Just as Fan Zeng said, this kind of hegemonic policy based on expansion and aggression is bound to not last long.

"So what does Mr. think, Zhao Guodang?"

Fan Zeng asked rhetorically: "What does the king rely on to get to where he is today?" ”

Zhao Jia pondered for a long time and said: "I have today, the Terai clan helps, the merchants trust, the people support, the soldiers serve their lives, and the princes do not hesitate to support. ”

Fan Zeng asked again: "The king is not like the Qin State, who arbitrarily rewards titles to meritorious people, why are the scholars, merchants, people, and soldiers willing to follow the king, and why are the princes willing to send troops to support them again and again?" ”

Zhao Jia's heart moved slightly, and he arched his hand and said, "Please speak up, Mr." ”

Fan Zeng stroked his beard and said: "In the past, there was Xinlingjun stealing talismans to save Zhao, and he was famous all over the world, and was respected by the people, scholars, and princes. ”

"Childe Wuji is expected by the world for his faith and righteousness."

"Looking at what the king has done in the past, he is not inferior to the prince Wuji, and more importantly, the king also has the name of benevolence and righteousness, so that the people of Zhao State really support the king."

"Faith, righteousness, and benevolence are the foundation of the king's foothold."

"If you sit back and watch the people of Zhao State starving, but do not open a warehouse to release grain to help the victims, this move is not benevolent."

"Although Qin is an enemy country, but the people are innocent, if the king wants to dominate the world, the people of Qin will be the people of the king sooner or later, if they take advantage of the famine and plague of Qin to send troops to attack it, this move is unjust."

"The six countries invaded Yan before, Zhao formed an alliance with Qin, and now the alliance is still there, so I don't believe it if I rashly sent troops."

"It would be unwise for the king to lose the foundation of the world for a momentary benefit."

"Therefore, please think twice!"

Speaking of this, Fan Zeng bowed deeply to Zhao Jia.

At this time, Zhao Jia also woke up suddenly, and he also agreed with Fan Zeng's words.

Zhao Jia's style of doing things is destined not to rule the world with domineering, otherwise the first person to abandon Zhao Jia is a big business stock from all over the world.

Without the support of these people, Zhao Jia would not have enough financial resources to develop the territory and let the people in the territory live a good life.

And as Fan Zeng said, benevolence, righteousness, and faith are the foundation of Zhao Jia's life, and if you really want to abandon these, it will be tantamount to self-destruction of the foundation.

At this time, Li Si was also silent.

He first looked at Fan Zeng, and then at Zhao Jia, and already knew that in this battle with Fan Zeng, he had fallen into disadvantage.

Soon, though, Lees came up with a remedy.

He took two steps forward and said to Fan Zengzuo: "Mr.'s words are deafening, benevolence, righteousness, and faith are indeed the foundation of the king's world, and Li Si admires it." ”

Then, he bowed to Zhao Jia and said: "Li Si is not talented, inspired by Mr. Fan Zeng, there is a plan for you today." ”

Zhao Jia was surprised by Li Si's transformation, but he still believed in the other party's talent, and immediately asked, "Sir, it's okay to talk about it." ”

Li Si said: "According to what Mr. Fan Zeng said, it is natural to open a warehouse and release grain to help the people. ”

"However, if you release grain for free, it will not be beneficial to the government, and second, it may cause laziness and indifference among the people, which is not advisable."

Zhao Jia asked, "What is the best plan for sir?" ”

Li Si replied: "In the past, the king placed the Xiongnu prisoners and gave them work for relief, so that the Xiongnu prisoners could earn their living needs through servitude, which was a great good. ”

"I often hear that the gentleman and Mr. Zheng Guo talked day and night, discussing the construction of water conservancy and the digging of ditches in Zhao State."

"I think that this is a move to rejuvenate the country and benefit the future, and it should be done quickly."

"Wouldn't it be beautiful that the king happened to take advantage of the famine this year to recruit the people to dig ditches for a fee, so that Mr. Zheng Guo could not only show his strengths, but also allow the people to earn money and grain through labor, and survive the harvest of grain in the spring of next year?"

When Zhao Jia heard this, he couldn't help but high-five and praised: "Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!" ”

Fan Zeng glanced at Li Si and secretly thought: "He actually picked a peach." ”

Fan Zeng was also ready to dedicate this strategy to Zhao Jia, but unfortunately he was not as cheeky as Li Sihou, and after paving the way, he let the other party take the first step.

It's just that Fan Zeng is not a good match, so naturally he will not let Li Si be beautiful.

After admiring Li Si's strategy, he immediately said: "The first army is to fight and plot, and then to attack the city, and the method of attacking the city is a last resort." ”

"Qin is Zhao's great enemy, even if he can't send troops to attack him for the time being, he must not be unguarded."

"With one more strategy, you can attack the hearts of the Qin people!"

Zhao Jia was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Sir, come quickly!" ”
