Chapter 205: Mao Dun Leads a Million Iron Cavalry to Commit the Border Pass

For the first time, the Qin Empire's goal of conquest was stated in public, the first time it was stated that the Qin Empire was determined to control the floods of the Yellow River, and for the first time, it was clearly stated that it would govern the desert area and make it an oasis.

The three huge goals excited the Qin Empire bigwigs who were seated. Once realized, all those sitting here will be famous and admired by the world.

Ye Tong spoke again: "The rise and rejuvenation of the empire requires everyone to work together and work hard to grasp and do a good job in the aspects in charge. All principles are based on the interests of the people and the country.

For example, the issue of education, the issue of literacy, and the question of preparing for the establishment of a large number of technical schools, secondary schools, and universities, in this regard, the cabinet is too conservative and does not devote energy to it.

It's like dealing with General Ben, hasn't your family encountered a shortage of talents in the development of the investment industry? ”

Dingjun Mountain opened many technical projects, and the problem was that the merchants and big families of the Qin Empire, including the big men sitting here, encountered the problem of lack of talents.

Dingjunshan's open technology projects are not easy to get started, not because they are worried about returns, but because they are worried about talents. Fools understand that as long as they get the technical support of Dingjun Mountain, they will make money, but they lack talents and cannot get started.

Cao Shen, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, couldn't hold his face, Cao Shen was in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and he did too poorly in education, literacy, and the construction of various schools.

Ye Tong continued: "Free education has been implemented for many years, almost five years, and now only half of the school-age children are enrolled. Among them, the enrolment rate of girls is even lower, less than 30%.

Also, we know that there is a shortage of skilled workers, so why not build technical schools in various places, and not build middle schools and universities.

Schools are the places where talents are cultivated, and without schools, the Qin Empire will also lack talents and skilled workers in another ten or twenty years.

At present, General Ben has a handful of letters asking for money, and all of them are carried out by the townships and villages themselves. The money is temporarily advanced by the township and village heads, and the cabinet must pay it. ”

After Ye Tong finished speaking, the internal guard took a letter to the cabinet boss.

A group of bigwigs were directly dumbfounded after seeing it, Xiao He really didn't know the situation, after all, the supervisor was Cao Shen, Cao Shen didn't know, and the cabinet prime minister didn't know.

Cao Shen said with a bitter face: "Lord, I know about this matter, but the problem is that I don't have any money in my hands, and the prime minister doesn't approve the money!" ”

Hey!

"Cao Shen, why don't Xiao give money, you won't run to Xiao He's house every day, eat and stay there until Xiao He gives money, how dare Xiao drive you out?"

The black line on Xiao He's face exploded, and he immediately said: "Lord, how can you teach your subordinates to do that, don't you push your humble position into the fire pit?" ”

Whoa!

The bigwigs laughed!

Ye Tong said: "Cao Shen is responsible for this matter, and the cabinet is responsible, but the main person responsible for the problem is not you, it is caused by the inaction of government officials at the county and county levels.

General Ben has always hoped that the Cabinet will resolve the issue as soon as possible. But what? The cabinet is a bit of a mud and doesn't want county and county officials to be laid off, demoted, or fired.

It is the mentality of the main species of the cabinet that has caused the current situation. Who is to blame? Blame Cao Shen, you can't blame it all, you can only say that there is a certain responsibility.

There is no competition mechanism in officialdom, capable people cannot ascend to the position, mediocre people continue to stay in their positions, and it is strange that the country can develop well. ”

Xiao He knows in his heart that if he doesn't express his position today, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out of the General's Mansion. Not only Ye Tong alone, but also Cao Shen stared.

Xiao He said: "Lord, don't worry! This time, the lowly post must be real, and some incompetent officials will be laid off, and a number of capable people will be transferred from the townships to take up posts. ”

Ye Tong shook his head and said, "Xiao He, don't think that General Ben is embarrassed, that is for everyone's consideration?" Your family is afraid to invest in industrial investment because of the lack of talent and skilled workers.

They all want to poach corners from the technical schools under the general's banner.

In fact, talent training and cultivation are originally the public welfare undertakings of the empire, and they are very important investments and expenditures, so why should they be stuck.

It's bad for the country, it's bad for your family.

We should increase investment and support to build more schools as soon as possible.

Ten years of trees, a hundred years of people, education is fundamental. The rise and revival of empires is inseparable from a large number of talents. Only when the quality of the whole people is improved, can the country be revived and rise! ”

Ye Tong really has a big head, and he has said many times about education, but the cabinet is not the same thing. I always feel that it is too expensive, there is no return, and it is not worth it.

The local county and county officials did not cooperate, and even stopped it, thinking that the people were literate, so why should they be scholars?

Xiao He said: "Lord, why don't we mobilize rich people to invest in building schools?" ”

Alas!

Ye Tong sighed and explained helplessly: "Xiao He, education is not child's play, and General Ben has no objection to private investment." The question is what about the cabinet? If you still don't want to invest, that's not okay.

Behold, General Ben! The Cabinet should set a ratio of expenditures and specify the proportion of each expenditure in fiscal revenue.

For example, how much education accounts for fiscal revenue, how much military spending, how much agricultural subsidies, how much technology research and development, and so on. ”

As soon as Ye Tong's words came out, the bigwigs present nodded one after another, all of them needed funds. Even if he is a member of the cabinet, his field of charge is different, and it is not a way to find Xiao for Qian Lao, Ye Tong's distribution ratio is very in line with everyone's thoughts.

Next, the bigwigs began to quarrel, and they were all fighting for the proportion of fund allocation.

Indisputable?

That drink the northwest wind!

Only the two Shangguan Wan'er and Huang Yueying, who did not attend the meeting, are exceptions, one of them is in charge of science and technology, and the other is in charge of industry and commerce, Dingjunshan, the bigwigs dare not offend, and the ratio set for the two is really good.

Ye Tong did not participate, and was directly an audience.

The military cabinet asked for 20% of the funds, and finally gave 15%, although it was less, it was better than nothing. Cao Shen was entangled, and finally gave 5% of the education funding, which was not bad, dozens of times more than the original.

Just when the bigwigs are fighting for funds. The internal guard came in and handed over a piece of information to Ye Tong.

After Ye Tong finished reading it, he handed it to Zhang Liang, Fan Zeng, and Chen Ping, and the three of them were shocked after reading it, and they were speechless for a long time.

The information was sent by Mulan, and with the return of the scouts, Mao Dun organized dozens of large tribes and gathered millions of iron horsemen to kill the area around Yanmen Pass.

The scouts sent by Gu Hua Mulan reported that there were no million Hun iron horsemen, and more than 600,000 was definitely reached. Even if it was 600,000 Hun iron horsemen, the scale was also shocking to several people.

After dinner, the cabinet personnel left, the military pavilion stayed to study the combat plan, and Cheng Yu of the Imperial History Pavilion was specially left by Ye Tong, Cheng Yu is a top strategist, and he must be allowed to participate in the discussion of the combat plan.

Zhang Liang pointed at the sand table with his baton and said: "Lord, the 600,000 soldiers and horses led by Mao Dun are not all. He believes that there is still a way for soldiers and horses to attack the area of Yumen Pass and Yangguan, and the defense of Yumen Pass and Yangguan must be strengthened. We have a heavy industrial park there, the importance of which is clear to everyone, and we can't make mistakes. ”

Ye Tong nodded, and he also had that thought in his heart. Mao Dun is the overlord of the grassland, and he will definitely order the western Xiongnu iron cavalry to attack, forming a two-sided attack on the Qin Empire.

Mao Dun knew the strength of the Qin army very well, and once he decided to send troops, it would not be a skirmish. It should be to concentrate forces to attack the two directions of Yumen Pass and Yanmen Pass.

Fan Zeng thought about it for a while and suggested: "My lord, the eastern Xiongnu iron cavalry was transferred by Mao Dun, this is an opportunity, and General Mu Guiying should be given an order to wait for the eastern Xiongnu iron cavalry to leave, and then take the eastern region into the jurisdiction of the empire in one fell swoop." ”

Mu Guiying had 30,000 turquoise cavalry and 40,000 musketeers in his hands, leaving 10,000 musketeers to garrison the border area, and led 60,000 soldiers and horses to attack the eastern region.

Chen Ping was puzzled: "General Mu has 70,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and if he doesn't participate in the battle against Maodun, we have too few troops?" ”

Cheng Yu said: "Yumen Pass must increase troops, Jiang Song only has 50,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, I don't know how many Hun iron cavalry are attacking Yumen Pass?" However, the last time Gu attacked Yumen Pass, the Huns were able to gather 300,000 iron horses, so this time, the scale will not be small, and it should be more than 300,000 iron horses. ”

Hehe!

"Mao Dun led millions of iron horsemen and iron horsemen to attack, and Yumen Pass must also be a border pass of hundreds of thousands of iron horsemen, which is fierce and murderous, and has the potential to annihilate the Yanhuang nation in one fell swoop, then let's give Mao Dun a chance to fight it out to the death!"

"The lord (general) gives the order!"

Zhang Liang, Chen Ping, Fan Zeng, Cheng Yu and others spoke one after another, and showed that they put the millions of Hun iron horsemen in their eyes, and they were all full of fighting spirit and confidence.

"Order, Mu Guiying's Fourth Army took the opportunity to attack the eastern Xiongnu tribal region and bring the eastern region into the jurisdiction of the empire in one fell swoop."

"Yes!"

"Chen Ping! Mu Guiying had no problem leading his troops to fight, but he lacked experience in dealing with some Huns and Donghu people, so he asked him to go to Liaodong and help General Mu Guiying take the eastern region into his hands. ”

"Yes!"

"Mr. Fan, take a big ride through Yumen Pass, the second army led by Jiang Song only has 50,000 soldiers and horses, you take 50,000 soldiers and horses to reinforce Yumen Pass, and assist Jiang Song to give a stern counterattack to the invading Hun iron cavalry. Mr. Fan, Jiang Song is lacking in strategy, please! ”

"Yes!"

"Order, tell Lin Xiao to immediately go out of the east, carry out landing operations in some areas, and assist the Fourth Army to solve the problem of the Huns in the east."

Zhou Yu still stayed on the four islands of Yanhuang to arrest the natives, and could only let Lin Xiao go out.

"Yes!"

"Ofan, you are in charge of the overall situation in Chang'an, you are inseparable from you here, General Ben left you 50,000 soldiers and horses, and reinforcements will be provided according to the situation if there is a problem."

"Yes!"

"Cheng Yu, you have to take care of your family, and bewitch the people with some ulterior motives and take the opportunity to make trouble. Once you find a heavy hand, you will not be merciful. ”

"Yes!"

"The rest of the personnel followed General Ben to reinforce Yumen Pass and dealt a severe blow to the intruders."

"Yes!"

"By the way, let's take a look, is there anything else that needs to be added?"

Chen Ping suggested: "My lord, I think that I should let the Focus and the Imperial Daily properly publicize the affairs of the millions of Hun iron horsemen who have committed crimes at the border, so that the people of the world can work together. At the same time, seduce out some dark scum, just to solve it together. ”

"Okay, order, notify Xu Cheng of the Propaganda Department, and report the Hun enemy table."

"Yes!"
