After the first bunker was removed, the Qi commandos immediately rushed in. With a few gunshots, the Yan army, which was not dead, was killed. Then there was another violent explosion, and this time, the Qi commando attacked the bunker from the flank, so that the attack was usually the blind spot of the other two bunkers in the three bunkers, and just like that, the three bunkers were killed in turn. Then, the Qi army began to get back on the road.

On the way, there were guerrillas to assist in attacking and guiding, and the progress of the Qi army was quite fast. The Yan army, which was about to be encircled, did not make a systematic retreat at all. Encirclements are being formed one after the other. In this way, the remaining army of the Yan army was surrounded.

In the Qin State, Xianyang has a strong atmosphere for the New Year. The sound of firecrackers kept coming from outside. Only at this time will the ban on firecrackers be lifted in the city of Qin. Due to the considerable number of guns in the Qin State. The sound of gunshots also means that something bad has happened in Xianyang City of Qin State. Especially in the area of law and order. So, in order not to have similar things happen in peacetime. Xianyang, Qin State, prohibits fireworks and firecrackers in the city. There are also clear regulations on the time and place of fireworks. That's good.

Even so, as long as it is not a holiday, the state system of the Qin State is still functioning. It's not just the state system. Even if it is a holiday, the national government agency must have relevant duty personnel on duty. For example, Shang Wen must be on duty as a prime minister, and the judicial, public security, military, and national lieutenant organs must also have one-fifth of the personnel on duty to ensure continuous operation. And some special positions, such as power supply companies, telephone call agencies, and point reporting and receiving stations, must be fully staffed to ensure that personnel are on duty. This is the duty system of the Qin State. Even during the holidays, the country must ensure that enough people stick to their posts. This sense of responsibility allowed Qin to continue to maintain his strong and superior presence. And this strong sense of superiority also has a certain sense of crisis.

In the school hall of Qinguo University. Fan Zeng is promoting a kind of limbic crisis science. The topic of the class was the Rising Crisis of Marginalization. This is an innovative doctrine of geopolitics coupled with the formation of a sense of crisis, and to be honest, this idea, Shang Wen has never heard of. Even listening to those damned politicians, the constant nagging of politicians has not been heard. However, this doctrine King Qin is quite superstitious, and it is very superstitious.

And the people who listened to this old man's lecture in the school were King Qin, Shang Wen, Wang Qian, and Wei Yu, a member of the Qin State, not only the current political superstars of the Qin State, but also the future political rookies of the Qin State. For example, there is Fusu, the future heir to the throne. Today's Fusu has surpassed his peers and entered the university academy. However, he majored not in political science, but in journalism. His dream was to be a journalist. Then he traveled to all corners of the Qin State and interviewed all kinds of people. It's one of life's great joys. This idea did not have the permission of the King of Qin, but it allowed him to continue his studies in journalism. And no one in the whole school knew about Fusu's special identity. People only know that this is the son of a large family, and that's it.

The entire classroom can accommodate more than 500 people, which is the largest school in the Qin State at present. But even so, the entire perimeter of the school was crowded with students. Some students leaned on the windows to listen to the lectures. This spirit is truly admirable. Seeing such a scene was very much like giving up his seat and leaving an empty seat for those students, Shang Wen was very uninterested in such a doctrine. And Yingyu also plans to go out and have fun before Shangwen is on duty. Especially when you go to the mountains again and lock the locks. But now it seems that it will definitely not work.

"I think that the rise of the Qin State is not accidental, and there is a certain historical trend. And this trend is very meaningful. The rising states, and the real threats, come from marginalized countries. Fan Zeng said excitedly. And Shangwen found it boring. However, King Qin, Wang Jian and others listened to Fan Zeng's security strategy awareness quite seriously. I don't know what's going on. Fan Zeng's doctrine was very popular in Qin, and I don't know if it was because of Qin's sense of crisis or because of Qin's academic freedom. In short, this doctrine, with a strong sense of expansion, was very popular in the Qin state. If you put it in other countries, for example, South Korea. Maybe there won't be such a big market. Because, they simply don't have the foundation of a country as big as Qin. They had to slowly accumulate their strength under the threat of the Qin State. Shang Wen thought so.

"The so-called marginalization. It is a small country and a weak country that has been neglected outside of our national strategic consciousness. These countries are often subconsciously ignored by the dominant culture. Fan Zeng said.

"Here's an example."

"Back then, King Wen of Zhou crusaded against Shang. At that time, Zhou was a marginalized country. Where was the mainstream consciousness at that time, in the Central Plains. And Zhou is in Guanzhong. The Guanzhong region was a marginalized country at the time. For example, the same is true of our Qin State. ”

And the King of Qin below nodded slightly. Obviously, King Qin somewhat agreed with Fan Zeng's opinion.

Fan then gave examples of other marginalized countries. These countries are, Jin State, Qin State, Chu State. Qi country. Without exception, these countries were on the margins of the Central Plains civilization. And these countries are all marginalized without exception. Among them, the most special is the state of Chu. The state of Chu has always been one of the marginalized countries. And the potential for the country's development is the greatest. Once won the Central Plains. At one time, there was a huge panic in the Central Plains civilization.

And now, also in great panic is the Qin State from the northwest. However, the threat of the Qin state is now consciously downplayed under commercial activities. However, it is known that this dilution is only temporary.

Fan Zeng's idea was simple. That's why marginalized countries tend to rise. And the central country of the Central Plains is difficult to rise. He gave an example of this. Central Plains countries, such as the traditional Song Kingdom, because of its geographical location and fertile land, have little incentive for reform. As long as you keep it, you can easily get what is difficult for others to get. This made it difficult for the Song state to carry out large-scale reforms.

On the contrary, marginalized countries such as Chu and Qin are located on the edge of the Central Plains. Their land resources and technology are lagging behind those of the Central Plains. And, most brutally, due to the bordering of marginalized countries and minorities. They are also often harassed by ethnic minorities.

And the opportunity to rise is precisely given to such a marginal country. For example, the Qin and Qiang struggles cultivated a strong martial spirit. The struggle between the Chu State and the Yue people in the south also cultivated a strong martial spirit. The Qi and Dongyi states in the east, and the Zhao and Shanrongdi states in the north were all formed under this strong oppression to form a kind of upward and efficient progress.

This progress is not just an external force. Develop from the outside in. At the same time, it is a direct impetus for a kind of comprehensive reform in the country. Qin's Shang Ying's reform, Chu's Wu Qi's reform, Zhao's Hufu cavalry shooting, and so on.

On the contrary, among the Central Plains countries, Wei underwent a crisis rise due to the division of the three families, but this crisis was quickly consumed by it. On the contrary, it is the marginalized countries that have made great strides in their development.

Subsequently, Fan Zeng began to sell his strategic plan.

In his opinion, the Qin state should pay attention to the marginalized countries as the Xiongnu on the periphery, as well as potential enemies in the west and south. If we are developing a maritime business, we should also be vigilant at all times. On the contrary, for the Central Plains, he believes that the Central Plains, due to its geographical location and superior resources, is not the source of the crisis of the marginalization and rise of the Qin State. Because these countries have lacked the necessary elements for marginalization to rise.

The first is the monarch's sense of hard work, and there are few such monarchs in the six countries, and the second is the national strength and the power of scientific and technological innovation. The state of Qin had a great deal of influence in this regard. In particular, more than seventy percent of the scientific and technological personnel were concentrated in the Qin State. Moreover, the education system of the Qin State was also extremely large and powerful.

Finally, it is the growing influence of the Qin State. This has never been done before. This is mainly manifested in the fact that the Qin State has all its strength except for force. This strength is economic power, and this economic power is manifested in the dominance of commercial exchanges. Qin goods could circulate freely. Logistics has a great deal of initiative. The state of Qin bore most of the logistics costs. The most important thing is that Qin's financial industry, Qin's banknotes, bank drafts, checks, lending and absorbing deposits and other businesses can control a country's economic lifeline. As long as the country circulates Qin Banliang, it will not be able to issue its own currency, and only if Qin Banliang exists, will there be advanced Qin goods in circulation. This has never been done before.

These countries had close economic ties with the Qin state. It is very likely that this kind of exchange will become Qin's influence on other countries, and it will become a whole that is intricately connected and cannot be separated. This is a sense of unity.

On the contrary, the marginalized countries around Qin have a great potential threat. These threats are invisible. For example, if Qin's attention shifted to the Xiongnu, then the pressure on the mountain people would be less. Moreover, the Qiang people in the southwest have not yet engaged in large-scale acts of war. In the south, although the state of Chu and the Yue people are directly bordered, it does not mean that these Yue people can be ignored. Shang Wen didn't know how to listen to it. Anyway, this kind of lecture is the same meaning, that is, to be careful of those invisible enemies. Especially marginalized enemies.

And this is true, but when the world's civilization appeared in the Yellow River Valley, where our enemy was the Xiongnu, in the West, when the Greek civilization was in the world, Macedonia was there, and the fallen horses were there, and these countries were all marginalized without exception. When the Fallen Empire was thriving, the Germanic and Gauls were there. While the British Empire was flying its flag, the Americans may not have been independent for long. The world is always marginalized, and the periphery becomes the center. Shang Wen looked back on the future history and thought.
