This kid, why do you love to tell the truth so much, don't you know that telling the truth hurts?

Although Yinghai sat down, what he said fermented, because the Qin nobles present knew that this kid was telling the truth.

Life is long, and there are many opportunities; Life is short, and opportunities are fleeting.

It all makes sense, it depends on which one you believe.

Ying Hai's words made the Qin nobles present suddenly realize the seriousness of the situation, and they all felt that today's opportunity might be the last opportunity for the Qin people to advance eastward.

After Yinghai finished speaking, the third Yingzhao also said: "Father, uncles, I think the fourth child is not wrong, since the royal family has sent troops to drive away Rong Di on Longshan, why don't we move to Longshan in advance before the enemy returns south, even if Rong Di moves south, what are we afraid of?" It's a big deal to fight them. Fought so that we occupied Longshan; Defeated, we'll just retreat back to Inuhill again. ”

Although Yinghai and Yingzhao said angry words, such words also represent the meaning of many Qin people.

"Yes, we should occupy Longshan before Rong Di returns south. Only by occupying Longshan can we continue to migrate eastward, and finally settle in the vicinity of Guanzhong. The second child said.

If you want to go to Guanzhong, Longshan is a hurdle that must be passed, and it is definitely an empty word to go to Guanzhong if you can't pass this hurdle.

Settle around Guanzhong.

This was the original wish of the Qin people, as long as they could settle around Guanzhong, it was already the greatest wish for the Qin people who only had about 100,000 people.

In the midst of everyone's noise, Qin Zhong didn't know what to do at the moment.

It's not that he doesn't know it's an opportunity, but it's also a big adventure.

It was done, and the Qin people took the first step in moving eastward.

Once he fails, perhaps the path of the Qin people to the east will come to an abrupt end, at least in his hands, there is no hope. In the end, Qin Zhong's gaze fell on Ying Kai, "Ying Kai, you just came back from Longshan and tell me your opinion." ”

In fact, on the way back, Yingkai has been thinking about this problem.

To move east, or not to move?

It was difficult for the Qin people at this time.

Moving means fighting again with Rong Di, who committed crimes in the south.

If you don't move, then the Qin people will lose a great opportunity.

So Ying Kai thought for a while and said, "Father, uncles, the children think that we should move eastward steadily and gradually move eastward. ”

Gradual eastward expansion?

What a novel formulation.

Well?

After listening to Yingkai's words, everyone present was stunned, turned their heads, and looked at him suspiciously.

Gradual eastward migration?

What do you mean by moving, to move or not to move?

Under the gaze of everyone, Ying Kai stood up and said: "The so-called gradual eastward migration is that we are migrating eastward little by little on the original basis. As you all know, the reason why the Qin people have been able to survive in the west for hundreds of years is because we have the city of Inuqiu, although it is dilapidated, but at least it can protect our safety, making it difficult for the surrounding Rong Di to destroy us for a while. Once we lose the protection of Inuqiu City, then the Qin people will definitely be eaten away by the surrounding Rong Di. ”

Although Inuqiu City is a little broken, it is precisely because of this broken city that the Qin people are today, if they really leave this broken city, whether the Qin people can continue to live is really a big question mark.

"Well---, you have a point. It was precisely because of this city that Qin was able to survive. That's the main reason why I'm reluctant to leave Inugaoka. Qin Zhong said after hearing this.

As the leader of the Qin people, Qin Zhong certainly knew the importance of this broken city to the Qin people.

After listening to Qin Zhongying, he continued: "Father, for a hundred years, while we have been protected by the Inuqiu City, we have also been restricted by the City. That is, we can only stay in this small place of Inugaoka, and we can't have big development. ”

There are pros and cons to everything, this is not wrong at all, the Qin people are protected by Inuqiu City and are indeed restricted by the city, after listening to Yingkai's words, everyone nodded slightly.

"For many years, the Qin people have always wanted to develop to the east, and the most fearful thing is that once they leave the protection of the city and die under the sword of Rong Di, this is also an important reason why the Qin people have not developed for several generations. In addition, all along, the Qin people have a strong heart but lack of strength, and their strength is not good, and they do not have the courage to leave Inuqiu. Today, Rong Di on the top of Longshan has been driven away by the royal family, if we lose this golden opportunity again, maybe the Qin people will stay in this small dog hill forever. Ying Kai continued.

"You're right, and I think so, we can't afford to lose this opportunity." The eldest son Yingqi said.

"Yes, what the junior brother said is right, we Qin people can't afford to lose this opportunity." Yingzhao and Yinghai also followed.

With everyone's support, Yingkai nodded and said, "It seems that I am not the only one who has recognized this opportunity, everyone has recognized it." But in terms of how to move eastward, I don't think we should act rashly, we must be steady. ”

Ying Kai knew that the Qin people were brave, but another meaning of bravery was that they were not mindful enough to do things and were easy to be reckless, so he put forward a steady suggestion.

"What does it mean to be steady?" Zhao Boyu asked.

"The so-called steady and steady progress means that we take Inuqiu as the center and gradually advance eastward. Let me tell you this, for the sake of stability, we sent troops and horses to the east, set up a fortress every ten miles, and built beacon towers with rammed earth while stationing soldiers and horses. Once Rong Di attacked, we lit a beacon fire and informed each other, so that the officers and men of the Qin army who got the news could support each other. The old, weak, sick and disabled Qin people can continue to stay in Dog Hill to help us defend the city. In this way, all the Qin people will not be exposed to the blows of Rong Di. What do you think? ”

Well?

What a personal idea?

After listening to Yingkai's method, the Qin nobles couldn't help but look at each other.

Then Yingzhao said: "Yingkai's method is good, but it's too slow." At this speed, we don't know what year or month we will have to wait until we can cross Longshan and reach the vicinity of Guanzhong. ”

The method is good, but it is indeed a little slow. After all, it takes time to build forts and beacons.

From the dog mound to Guanzhong, how many miles away, so all the way to the past, the daylily has sprouted.

But is there a better way? At this time, Zhao Zhou spoke: "I think the young man's method is feasible, after all, the Qin people are such a small population, once they are dispersed, they will inevitably weaken their strength, if they are gradually eaten away by the enemy, we will be completely wiped out." ”

Since Zhao Zhou, who has always been known for his caution, has spoken, what else can others say? Qin Zhong looked around at everyone, and saw that everyone didn't say anything anymore, so he said: "Everyone, this is an important step for the Qin people to develop eastward, you must be careful, I think the time for you to build the fortress can be carried out during the day, and all our troops and people will return to Inuqiu City as soon as it gets dark, don't let everyone risk in the wilderness." ”

Strength is the basis for speaking, family background is the basis for fighting, in the case of the Qin people's strength is not good, the family background is very thin, steady eastward expansion may be the best choice.
