Chapter 590

"Otsutsuki, Macedonia?" After Qin Xi heard Yao Jia's words, his little head was filled with big doubts.

At this time, Macedonia should have been gone a long time ago, how could it still exist? Could it be that Roland has mistranslated?

Although this possibility is very high, it is also possible that the history of this world has been deviated, for example, Han Feizi is still alive, and Loulan not only did not perish, but unified the Western Regions.

After Qin Xi pondered for a while, he said, "Hang that Jibu first, and I'll see him again in two days." ”

"Yes, Your Highness." Yao Jia straightened up and said, "Your Highness, regarding the matter of Loulan's wanton deployment of troops to the border of Daqin, Ji Bu said that he would report to the king of Loulan after returning to Loulan. ”

Qin Xi smiled and said, "Lord Yao, why did you say that Loulan was wantonly on my Great Qin border?" ”

Yao Jia said with a smile: "Naturally, I am afraid of my Great Qin, and I am afraid that my Great Qin will attack Loulan." ”

"So even if Loulan withdraws his troops, he will only retreat a few miles back, so there is no need to hold on to this matter for the time being, just give other officials a peace of mind."

Qin Xi said with a smile: "If you want to say that Loulan has really withdrawn all the troops, what excuse will there be for attacking Loulan in the future." ”

"What Your Highness said is, what should I do if it's just the things on the Western side?" Yao Jia asked.

"At present, with the national strength of my Great Qin, I can't take care of the Western side for the time being, so let's temporarily stop the business of Loulan, and meet the domestic demand first." Qin Xi said.

"No."

Qin Xi asked, "Where is Your Majesty now?" How long will it take to come back? ”

"Now that Your Majesty is in Wu County, if you return to Xianyang, it will take at least half a year."

"Half a year, don't make a mistake in moving the capital

Time. Qin Xi said.

Yao Jia lowered his head, as if he was hiding something.

After Yao Jia left, Qin Xi asked the eunuch to spread the huge world map on the ground.

"The Great Moon Clan and Macedonia are fighting, which means that Macedonia and the Great Moon Clan are bordering."

Qin Xi drew the scope of the Da Yue clan from memory, and it turned out that this Macedonia still controlled the Arab region.

"Macedonia, maybe not Macedonia, but Rome? Interesting. Qin Xi sat on the ground and said with a smile.

At this time, the eunuch came over and reported: "Your Highness, Lord Taiwei is here." ”

"Come in, please." Qin Xi sat on the map and said.

"No."

After Meng Tian came in, he saw Qin Xi sitting on the map, and saluted: "Minister, see His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Qin Xi beckoned, "Come and take a look." ”

"No."

At the same time that Meng Tian walked over, Qin Xi also stood up.

Qin Xi pointed to the area drawn on the map and said, "This is the approximate location of the Da Yue clan on the edge of Lou Landi, and next to the Da Yue clan is a country called Rome or Macedonia. ”

"Now the two countries are fighting, cutting off the road for Loulan to go west to do business."

Meng Tian walked and measured the distance, frowned and said, "Your Highness, even if you know the reason, my Great Qin will not be able to reach it." ”

Qin Xi smiled: "This is natural, I just want to say, if we want to incorporate the territory of these two countries into the territory of my Great Qin, how many years will it take." ”

Meng Tian was taken aback, and then said: "Your Highness, we don't know much about these two Western countries, and if we rush to send troops, I'm afraid that there will be problems. ”、

Qin Xi nodded and said, "It's just a matter of thinking about it, don't be surprised."

Mob's. ”

Qin Xi said: "I came to you today, not for this matter, but for another matter. ”

"Your Highness, please speak." Meng Tian arched his hand and said.

Qin Xi pointed to the map and said, "Look at this map, is the area of water much larger than the area of land?" ”

"The minister has looked at this map several times, and the area of the sea is indeed the largest." Meng Tian arched his hand and said.

Qin Xi sat down on the map again, and at the same time beckoned Meng Tian to sit down.

"In my opinion, you will never be able to conquer the world if you conquer the land, and if you want to conquer the world, you must conquer the sea."

"I intend to form a navy, which is different from the powerful navy of the current navy."

Meng Tian frowned and said, "Your Highness, the minister doesn't know much about the navy, and even the navy doesn't know much. However, if His Highness wants to form a navy, the first thing is His Majesty's consent. ”

Qin Xi said: "Your Majesty has agreed to this matter, but this matter is still left to me." ”

"So, I want you to share this matter with me, Captain. After all, although I have led troops several times, I still do not know as well as you know the soldiers. ”

Meng Tian said: "If Your Highness is to form a navy, it is best to recruit the people by the sea to join the army, and the people by the rivers are supplemented. ”

"And the generals of this navy are best drawn from the navy, but at present, there are only three navy armies in Daqin, and the generals are even rarer."

Qin Xi nodded and said, "Elite soldiers are easy to train, but good generals are hard to find." Although there are many generals in my Great Qin, almost none of them are proficient in naval warfare, which is a huge problem. ”

"Your Highness, the affairs of the navy need to be taken slowly, and there should be no rush." Meng Yi reminded.

Qin Xi said

Said: "At present, a school has been built in Luoyang City, and now that there is no war in Daqin, I plan to use this school as a school for cultivating generals." ”

"I want you to select some young people in the army who are talented generals and send them there to study. And I will also let the soldiers into the school and teach them the art of war. ”

Meng Tian frowned and said, "Your Highness, I'm afraid this is not easy, it is obviously impossible without a year and a half." ”

"A year and a half is a year and a half, and people have no long-term worries. Anyway, it's still a while before you move the capital, so just do your best. Qin Xi said.

"No."

Qin Xi continued: "The new gunpowder and muskets in the Ministry of Industry have made great progress, what do you think after going to see it?" ”

Meng Tian arched his hand and said: "Your Highness, that musket may be able to change the combat methods of my Great Qin soldiers, but the biggest problem at present is that the output cannot go up, which is the biggest flaw." ”

"Then do you think you want to equip the whole army now?" Qin Xi asked.

Meng Tian arched his hand and said: "Your Highness, the minister feels that it is still too early to equip the whole army, but Your Highness can equip the current new army. ”

"Tell me why." Qin Xi said.

"Your Highness, the main reason is that the production of muskets is insufficient, if the whole army uses muskets, it will inevitably affect the combat effectiveness of our army." Meng Tian explained.

Qin Xi stood up and said, "Since this is the case, let's equip the new army for training first, and there is no need to write about the recital on Your Majesty's side." ”

And in the embassy, Gibb was anxious.

Just now, Yao Jia had already sent someone to inform Jibu.

Now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in a very bad mood, and he doesn't want to see him now, so he wants to wait for a few days

。

At the same time, Yao Jia also told him that His Royal Highness was very curious about the Da Yue clan and what horses and others, and asked him to write it down, which might make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince happy.

No matter how anxious Gibb was at this time, he could force himself to calm down.
