Chapter 128: Westward Expansion

Hu Hai didn't care much about whether it was the Shime people who attacked Beacon City this time, he cared about the casualties of the Jiuyuan Army's soldiers in Beacon City and the impact this incident could have on Great Qin's future strategy. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Old minister, please lead the army westward in the name of the whole Great Qin! Your Majesty's permission! ”

Since the attacker of this kěnéng existed, the hearts of the ministers were alive. Therefore, Feng Quji, who is the auxiliary minister of the cabinet, took the lead in standing up".

Compared with the time of the First Emperor more than ten years ago, Daqin is not half a point stronger in terms of military strength and strength. Of course, the massive wealth left by the First Emperor is also one of the aspects.

However, compared with Shihou under the reign of the First Emperor, the biggest change in Great Qin today is the stability of the country. At least the remnants of the Six Kingdoms Yijing are rarely seen, and the recognition of the people who originally belonged to the Six Kingdoms to Daqin is also increasing rapidly. More importantly, the reputation of Hu Hai, the emperor, is not half as bad as the reputation of the first emperor.

And when the First Emperor was in power, Great Qin had just unified the six countries and had a firm foothold, and in the face of the aggressive Huns, he dared to send hundreds of thousands of troops to drive the Xiongnu north, let alone now. What's more, the current Second Emperor is far more enthusiastic about expanding the territory than the First Emperor, which is a recognized fact of the Great Qin Dynasty and the opposition.

I didn't see that in the less than four years since he ascended the throne, Yijing successively set up the land of the seven counties, directly expanding the territory of Daqin by almost one-third.

Therefore, as soon as Feng Qu said this, most of the more than a dozen important ministers who controlled the authority of the Great Qin Center spoke in favor. Of course, what they are in favor of is only the matter of the imperial court sending troops to punish those small countries in the Western Regions who do not know the height of the sky. Instead of Feng Qujian personally leading the troops to the Western Regions.

It is reasonable to be reasonable, this matter of leading the troops is not the turn of the old man Feng Quji, who is still an auxiliary minister of the cabinet.

The four auxiliary ministers of the cabinet, Wei Yi, Ying Teng, Li You, and Dun Wei, as well as a few Shangshu and Shilang such as Meng Yi, Zhang Cang, Tian Ren, Su Mo, and Fan Jian, all spoke to each other.

Most of them are still figuring out Hu Hai's attitude.

Everyone is qingchu, compared to the strong first emperor, the young second emperor tongguo reformed again and again, tongguo exchanged and reformed again and again, not only the control of the Great Qin is more than the first emperor, his strength is far greater than the first emperor.

All the big and small things of Great Qin are actually only in the thoughts of the young emperor above this hall.

However, although the young emperor was more powerful than the first emperor, he was also much more enlightened than the first emperor in listening to the advice of the courtiers. The main thing is the attitude of the Second Emperor towards power, and the same Emperor seems to be the two extremes.

The establishment of the Cabinet Office and the original administration of Li Si have proved this from the side.

Hearing Feng Quji's words. Hu Hai smiled noncommittally.

"Your Majesty. If the countries of the Western Regions are really as the Longwei Mansion Letter said, they are the largest but the land of my Great Qin County, and even the allied forces of the countries will definitely be able to withstand the blow of my Great Qin elite soldiers. There are now 50,000 elite soldiers of the Nine Plains Army stationed in Hexi, and to deal with such a small country, Lord Feng should personally lead the army. What's more, Hexi is far away from my Daqin, so if you send a large army. Thousands of miles of supply and baggage will inevitably cost a lot. Don't use an elephant to crack a nut. The old minister thought. For today's plan, Su Jiao, the lieutenant of Hexi County, can be ordered to lead the 50,000 Yuan Army to march westward, and I will be majestic in Great Qin. ”

This time it was Wei Yu who spoke, as the only remaining military master of the Great Qin Fruits. He obviously considered it much more comprehensively than Feng Quji.

"The old minister seconded the proposal!"

"The ministers seconded it!"

……

As soon as Wei Yu's words fell, Ying Teng, Dun Weak, Su Mo, Fan Jian and others seconded the proposal.

"Zhang Aiqing, how much is the storage of the treasury warehouses in various parts of Daqin now?" When Hu Hai heard Wei Yu's words, he nodded and spoke, but looked at Zhang Cang, the head of the household department in the main hall.

"Back to Your Majesty, except for the Bashangcang, Liyang Cang, Xianyang Cang, and Chenliucang in Dangjun in Neishi County, the four warehouses of grain are only one percent; Chengdu storage grain in Shu County is still 30% left; The remaining seven cangs are all stored in more than eighty percent of the grain. The new Caohan warehouse has been added, and millions of stones of grain have been stored. ”

Zhang Cang heard Hu Hai's question, and hurriedly got up and bowed in response.

As the secretary of the household department, the twelve official warehouses of the Great Qin, the Shangfang Mansion Treasury, the Shaofu Treasury and the county warehouses in various counties are all under the jurisdiction of the Household Department, which is uniformly supervised and managed by the Household Department.

"Tian Aiqing, how is the ordnance reserve in the treasury of Shangfang Mansion?" Hu Hai nodded and looked at Lang Tianren, the left attendant of the Ministry of Works.

"Back to Your Majesty, according to Your Majesty's edict, all kinds of strong crossbows, crossbow arrows, crossbow machines, armor, and weapons in the Shangfang Mansion Treasury have been stepping up supervision, and now the newly made weapons in the Shangfang Mansion Treasury can supply the needs of my 300,000 troops in Daqin for a year."

As the left waiter of the Ministry of Industry and Shangfang, Tian Ren also knows everything about Shangfang.

Because no one would zhidàoshimeshihou, the emperor would turán ask about the matter.

"Meng Aiqing, can all the county officials be ready now?"

"Back to Your Majesty, in addition to the officials of the newly established seven counties, they are now rushing to the seven counties in public, and before March, I went to the forty-six counties of the Great Qin Yuan to the county guard to the township pavilion and the small chief Yijing are all ready."

"Cabinet Office, where are the 300,000 people who migrated north? Have the supplies ever kept up? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the 300,000 people who moved north, under the escort of the 90,000 Tiger Army, crossed the border of Guangyang yesterday, and all the way to the north, all the counties and counties guarded the imperial court edicts, and all the efforts were made to replenish and prepare properly."

"Zhang Aiqing, how is the recruitment of the forty-six county magistrates?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the forty-six county commanders have been recruited, and now they are going to six large camps under the command of the military officials. Thousands of tiger soldiers in the blue sky camp Yijing went out of the customs in advance and rushed to each camp. ”

"Hmm!" Hu Hai nodded, got up and paced two steps, suddenly turned around and stared at His Highness's ministers with burning eyes, and said: "January shijiān, I give the cabinet and the six departments January shijiān, within a month, whether it is the people who go north or the instructors of the Tiger Ben Army who are assigned to the land, they must rush to the counties." ”

"Your Ministers obey!"

His Royal Highness and all his ministers responded in unison.

"There are a few things to do this month, the Cabinet and the Six Ministries. The construction of Handan Iron Yard and Yantai Shipyard must not be delayed, and all ministries must ensure that Handan Iron Yard and Yantai Shipyard are smooth Jinháng, one of them.

Second, the two counties of Bashu were sent to conscript laborers to transport grain and grass from Chengdu warehouse to Caohan, and I wanted to store enough grain in Caohan warehouse to meet the needs of 200,000 troops for three years.

Third, the military department prepared and transferred the Weng Zhong Xuanwu army, which was originally guarding Chen County, to enter the customs; The 30,000 troops of the Suzaku Army stationed in the counties of Nanyang moved south to the line of Chen County and Dang County, and the 30,000 Suzaku Army stationed on the front line of Hanoi, Hedong and Shangdang went north to the line of Handan Julu, and cooperated with the 50,000 Xuanwu Army originally stationed in the Handan Iron Yard Zhouwéi to guard the construction of the Iron Yard and the 150,000 Jiangdong soldiers surrendered.

Fourth, the White Tiger Army of the big camp was ordered by Du Teng to pass the order, and the army would start after a month and march westward! ”

Hu Hai's loud words echoed in the hall of the council hall! (To be continued......)
