Chapter 10 The body is the foundation
What's the matter?
A princess still worries me?
Ying Kai got up from the bed and ate a casual meal. At this time, Zhao Boyu came over with the horse, "Ying Kaigongzi, I'll go together to see how they are building the beacon tower?" ”
"Good ---" Ying Kai agreed, and rode out of Inuqiu City with Zhao Boyu.
The northwest region has been sparsely populated since ancient times, and out of Inuqiu City, the vast scene on the Longxi Plateau has given Yingkai a long-standing release.
This kind of vastness is vast, it is empty, it is the feeling that makes people feel very vast at first glance, and compared to the oppression and restraint of living in the city, Ying Kai feels that he prefers this wild state of life.
So he shouted and galloped eastward.
"Oh oh oh---, I'm here---" Ying Kai shouted happily.
"Oooh oh ---"
Seeing this, Zhao Boyu also shouted and shouted, shouting while dancing on the horse's back, sometimes sitting down, sometimes standing up, sometimes lying on the horse's back.
The two of them ran and played, and soon came to a place ten miles east of Inuqiu City, where the eldest son Yingqi built a stronghold.
Before the people arrived, they saw several big pits dug by the soldiers led by Yingqi from a distance.
What do you do with building strongholds and digging pits?
With questions, Yingkai and the two came to the place where Yingqi built a stronghold.
Seeing Ying Kai and Zhao Boyu coming, Ying Qi reprimanded with some anger: "What are you shouting, I thought it was Rong Di people coming?" ”
Seeing his father's reprimand, Ying Kai smiled and said to Ying Qi: "Father, the two of us risked our lives to go to Longshan to investigate the situation, and finally returned to our homeland, can we release it well?" ”
"Hmph---, you're poor. Isn't it just being a scout? What's the big deal; According to you, then your grandfather has worked hard for us Qin people all his life, and he must not drink too often and release it well. The Qin people have a bad fate, so it's better to pay more attention. If we don't build the stronghold in time, we will not have any way to go east when Rong Di returns. ”
"Father, why do you dig such a big pit when you order the soldiers to build a stronghold?" Looking at the big pit on the ground, Ying Kai asked puzzled.
"Hehe, you don't understand this!" Ying Qi said to Ying Kai with some pride: "Rong Di is mostly a strange soldier, field combat is their strength, but siege is his weakness." While we are building a stronghold, we will dig a big pit around the stronghold to prevent Rong Di from invading! Unable to see the direction in the middle of the night, their cavalry would accidentally fall into the big pit I had dug. ”
After listening to Ying Qi's explanation, Ying Kai couldn't help but praise, "Good ---, father's method is good, so it not only solves the problem of repairing the city and taking land, but also can use the big pit to stop Rong Di's cavalry, this method is good!" ”
Wisdom is always the first magic weapon to defeat the enemy, as long as you have this magic weapon, you need to need things that seem difficult will be easily solved. The Qin people dug trenches around the perimeter while building beacon towers and cities, which had the same effect as the later construction of moats.
Seeing this, Ying Qi smiled and said to Ying Kai: "Okay, if you want to play, go and see elsewhere, don't affect my soldiers to build strongholds and beacon towers." Remember, stop yelling, if we bring the enemy in, we're going to suffer a big loss. ”
In the eyes of his father, the child will never grow up, just like the current Yingkai is already a sixteen-year-old leftover man, but in the mind of his father Yingqi, the child is still a child, let him play when he should play!
"Okay, then I'll go first." After that, Ying Kai and Zhao Boyu got on their horses and continued to go east.
At present, there is grandfather Qin Zhong, father Yingqi, uncle Yingshou, Yingzhao, Yinghai, Yingkang and others to worry about, although these like to hand over some important tasks to Yingkai to do, but after all, it is these fathers who carry heavy burdens and take on things.
Ying Kai and Zhao Boyu, the children and grandchildren of the younger generations, are just doing more.
Undertaking things and doing things are not the same, although there is only a word difference, but the responsibility and workload are completely different.
Undertaking things means that you have to take responsibility for this matter, from planning to implementation, from the beginning to the summary, you need to be responsible, and you have to worry about this, that is to say, this thing is in your head, it is completed, and the credit is given to your team, and the responsibility for completing it is yours.
But it's much easier to do things, others arrange it for you, you just have to do it, relatively simple, relatively single, do well even if you have high skills, and if you don't do well, your superiors will be jointly and severally responsible.
"How can he be allowed to do such an important thing?" Look, the responsibility is not their own yet.
Due to the large number of predecessors in the current Inuqiu, there are a lot of uncles with old qualifications, strong personalities, and who want to do things, so most of the things left for Ying Kai and Zhao Boyu are some specific things, and it will take time to take on heavy responsibilities.
This is also good, just let Yingkai and Zhao Boyu have more time to play, and by the way, use this time to think about their lives.
The further east you go, the closer you get to Longshan, and the more rugged the road becomes.
I went up a mountain beam, and a half-star-and-a-half white appeared on the mountain bag in front of me.
In the end, it was a child who grew up in the mountains, Ying Kai and Zhao Boyu could see at a glance that those white spots were flocks of sheep.
After running so far, of course they should be happy to see the sheep, but Yingkai and Zhao Boyu at this time were not happy at all.
Flock?
Is there a flock here?
A flock of sheep appeared so close to the Qin stronghold.
Whose flock are they?
"Flock? Whose flock is it? Is it ours or is it the Rongdi? Yingkai asked.
You must know that before the Qin people built the city, they were almost no different from the surrounding Rongdi, living by water and grass, grazing in the wilderness during the day, and returning to the tent to rest at night.
Since the construction of the city, the Qin people have the protection of the city, but at the same time they have narrowed the scope of their activities. The place that the current Qin people can occupy is less than a hundred miles around Inuqiu City.
"This should be the territory of the Dang clan, they are the closest to us, but there are not many contradictions between the two sides, so we are used to it." Zhao Boyu thought for a while and explained.
Dang Shi Rong?
Dangshi Rong, also known as Dangshe, is the closest branch to the Qin people in Xirong, and its strength is comparable to that of the Qin people, and it cannot be compared with the Rongdi tribes such as Dog Rong, Zhai Rong, Rong Rong, and Bo Rong around Guanzhong. Due to the limitation of strength, he was basically able to get along with the Qin people.
The body is the basis of a fight, and strength is the basis of diplomacy.
It is precisely because of this that there is a saying that a weak country has no diplomacy.
Because the strength of the Dangshe was basically the same as that of the Qin people, it was only in Longxi, where there were many Rong Di, that they could live in peace with the Qin people.
In the face of so many Rongdi tribes, if the Qin people want to advance eastward, they are simply blocked and surrounded everywhere!
Ying Kai couldn't help but look gloomy.
