Since ancient times.

There are two necessary conditions for the people to rebel.

Starving to death drifting and displacement!

As long as these two conditions are met, no matter what era, no matter how strong the country's army is, its demise is doomed.

Because.

Only under these conditions can the common people have the possibility of being provoked into rebellion by vested interests.

A spark can start a prairie fire.

When there is no food and no shelter, there is nothing to do anyway, and there is a dead end left and right, why not try rebellion?

And as long as those in power maintain two basic lines.

He didn't believe that this great country could perish.

The Great Hajj is over.

Yingcheng spent the night after dealing with the needs of the Prime Minister's Mansion to deal with the decision-making twists and turns.

It's not dawn.

He lay down in the bronze carriage and fell asleep and left Xianyang.

The main reason is that since Feng Qujian saw the speed of his review of the recitals, the recitals sent to him have decreased by geometric multiples, and the speed of his processing has become faster.

And this time.

The direction of his main patrol.

It is from Wuguan Road through Yaoguan, Wuguan, into Hangu Pass, and then from the Binhai Road back, along the west bank of the Yellow River, to inspect the northwest of Guanzhong.

That's right.

Patrols, no longer patrols.

Blind secret patrols are not what a prison country should do.

If he blindly pursues darkness, when the darkness comes, he can't stop it.

But if you hold up a lamp in the dark, you can gather those who are close to the light.

Daqin currently has two lights.

One is the First Emperor, and the other is him!

In order to gallop in the world, the East Poor Yan, Qi, Antarctic Wu, Chu, above the rivers and lakes, the view of the coast is complete. Fifty steps wide, three zhang and tree, thick outside it, difficult to golden vertebrae, tree to green pine. For the beauty of the galloping road, so that future generations have not been able to follow the evil path and support it.

Jia Shan's "Zhiyan", which is an exhortation, is intended to borrow Qin's edict to the present, and the book is written on the way of Emperor Xiaowen of the Han Dynasty to control chaos.

And all things that are borrowed from metaphors are either belittled or exalted, and there are exaggerated elements to support their own thoughts.

Because for most people, not to belittle others is not enough to show their wisdom, and not to exalt themselves is not enough to show their own ideas.

Qin Chi Dao did not plant a tree in three zhang as mentioned in the text, or even no tree, but cut down all the trees and jungles along the way, where the jungle must be an ambush place, open to the left and right, there is no hanging road, cliff road, this is the hard requirement of Qin Chi Road.

There is no imagination straight, the meaning of the road lies in a horse Pingchuan, the road to open the mountain and the stone can be less or less, and it is not necessary to open the mountain, after all, for Daqin, the amount of work required to open the mountain is extraordinarily large.

As for the construction of the city wall guardrail along the gallop road, it is even more nonsense, but on the ground on both sides of the gallop road, it is also compacted as flat ground, there are drainage ditches on the side, and there are no potholes, because the construction of the gallop road is not with the idea of "if you want to get rich first to build the road, but with the purpose of 'military control of the world", the first is the cavalry passage, the second is to transport grain, grass, and heavy chariots and horses, followed by foot soldiers, and the bottom is pedestrian walking.

…

Once there is military passage, all the way must make way for the military.

There will be strikers to clear the roadblocks.

When transporting grain and grass, it is necessary to clear the journey one day in advance, and no pedestrians are allowed to be seen.

In the central court, there was a person responsible for the construction and maintenance of the gallop road.

However, whether it is construction or maintenance, this part is not set up by special road administrators, but by the county government that passes along the way.

And this is one of them.

There is an extremely important government office, which occupies a very important position in the Chidao.

Yicheng!

Yicheng is the official name and the official signature, which is a joint official office.

The post is composed of three parts.

Chi Road Department, Post Office, Post Office.

The Department of Chi Road is responsible for the construction and maintenance of Chi Road.

The Post Office is the world's earliest oil post system, a large and complex communication network, which is in charge of the Langzhong Command Office, whose main responsibility is to deliver official documents of the imperial court, and in addition, to deliver letters.

The operation of the post is to relay the transmission, with the post station to pass the force.

Under normal circumstances, all the documents issued by the imperial court will be marked, 'The letter of order and the book are urgent, and they will be executed; Those who are not in a hurry will not dare to stay at the end of the day. Those who stay are judged by law. After receiving the urgent paperwork, the urgent document must be immediately set off to the next station, and the non-urgent document station must also be delivered to the next station on the same day.

As for the letters carried, they can only be said to be passed on in passing the official documents of the imperial court.

It's not an easy job.

In the selection of messengers for transporting official documents and military documents, it must be a stroke, that is, an able-bodied man who is more than 5 feet 8 inches tall, or more simply, a man who is more than 1.73 meters tall and in the prime of life who is in good health and free of disease.

And these people must have military horses, that is, they can run on two horses, and they can fight in armor at any time, and they are second only to the tiger camp in the army.

The county-level government office has no power to intercept the documents passed by the stroke.

The post station is a post station built along Qinchi Road.

It is also a transit station in the oil post relay.

Every thirty miles, it is mainly located in the pavilion, the pavilion of the township pavilion, and the official document post station responsible for mail delivery, all of which are built by the pavilions along the way, and are responsible for guarding the post station.

But.

This is just one of the responsibilities of the Post Office.

Besides.

There are also three important responsibilities of the post office.

Leaving palaces, pavilions, military installations.

The place of leaving the palace, with 40 acres of land as the palace, is the place where the court officials come and go, which has a palace, which is the residence of the first emperor, and there is a palace in each palace.

The building is a temporary resting place for business travelers in the past, and it is similar to an inn.

Military facilities, one of the most important places, is the beacon tower, along the Qin Chi Road, thirty miles, all built beacon towers.

"There is a rumor among the people that when the beacon fire starts, they all leave the road, and they have a day off!"

"It means that once the wolf smoke rises from the beacon tower, the people walking on the gallop road must quickly leave the gallop road, because in less than a moment, the pawns of each post station will flock to the gallop road, against the beacon fire to determine the military situation, at that time the stroke can no matter who is on the road, completely in a rampage situation, if he collides with something, he will blame the people on the gallop road why they obstruct the transmission of military information."

…

"So when the people saw the beacon fire, they consciously walked to both sides of the gallop road, and there was this rumor."

"As for the one-day break, the beacon fire relay does not have to be passed on to Xianyang, but first to the garrison camps in various places, and these garrison camps are all served by the captains personally ordered by His Majesty, and after determining the size of the matter, it will continue to be passed to Xianyang."

"In most cases, it will be to the garrison camp, and the captain and general of the garrison battalion will take the lead in sending scouts to run after determining the reason, and further determine the size of the matter, the scale is basically five hundred horsemen, with strong combat power, so when the beacon fire rises, the entire gallop road, there are only post posts, scouts, cavalry generals, running back and forth, and the people of the gallop road are basically impassable on this day."

Listening to the explanation of the chief of the military post directly under the command of the Taiwei Mansion, Yingcheng nodded, and couldn't help asking: "How many miles is the radiation range of this garrison camp?" ”

"A hundred miles before and after!" The chief replied without thinking: "Lantian has a special location, it is a two-way outpost, that is, it is responsible for the military situation of the pass, and it is also responsible for transmitting the military information to Xianyang, and it has a certain combat strength, which has a hundred people, and the other beacon outposts, only one Shi's soldiers, ten to sixteen people, this is not consistent, mainly set up by the Taiwei Mansion according to the situation in various places." ”

"And a military city like Wuguan does not have an independent outpost, and the Wuguan battalion is in charge."

"If Lantian sees the beacon fire, there is only one situation, there is a strong enemy attacking Wuguan, and the Wuguan camp is invincible, otherwise, the beacon fire will basically not be lit."

Yingcheng looked at the lone beacon tower and continued to ask: "What if there is a rebellion in Lantian Township?" ”

The chief paused slightly, slightly puzzled, but still replied: "This is not within the jurisdiction of the beacon tower, unless the captain of the Lantian battalion personally ordered to light the beacon fire, otherwise, it is not judged by the rebellion in Lantian whether to light the beacon fire." ”

"In addition, there is only one situation, the judgment is to besiege the beacon tower, and the beacon fire will be lit immediately."

"The beacon tower is guarded by three guards at twelve o'clock, day and night, and those who are close to the beacon tower for a hundred steps without an order have the right to warn and shoot them."

"The rebellion in Lantian belongs to the internal affairs and belongs to the jurisdiction of the county government, and the main task of the beacon tower is to transmit the military information such as the enemy's knocking on the chaotic county, and a county is not enough to quell the chaos and will only send a message with beacon fire in an emergency."

"Once the beacon fire is lit, everything else has to give way, and the cost is not small."

Yingcheng only nodded, and militarily, the Taiwei Mansion had developed an extremely rigorous military intelligence network.

This is an effective means of preventing the enemy from entering for a long time.

After all, there is no radio communication, and the generals' Hey, Hey, Your Majesty, we have found a large number of enemy troops coming, and we are asking for your Majesty's support.

And lighting the beacon fire is not to immediately raise troops to quell the chaos, but to tell all localities along the way to do a good job of defense and investigate the enemy's situation.

Beacon fire does not burn lightly.

The local turmoil is mainly the responsibility of the county soldiers and garrison battalions.

The situation in Neishi County is also different from other counties.

Even if the First Emperor left with the garrison battalion and the soldiers and horses of each battalion, he still had 300,000 combatable troops in the Inner Historical Land.

Among them.

Hangu Pass alone swallowed a battalion of 30,000 troops.

Since the general of Zhao State, Pang Xuan, bypassed the natural danger of Kuihan Zhigu and Rao went to Taiyuan to attack the east of Xianyang, he then set up a battalion in Haoyang, and established the Linjin defense line in the six eastern cities of Gaoling, Liyang, Chongquan, Heyang, Xiayang and Linjin.

And for this purpose, the Linjin Road in the north of the Yellow River was specially built.

"Guanzhong has always been the basic plate of the Qin State, even if the world is in chaos, Guanzhong cannot be in chaos."

Yingcheng stood on the beacon tower and scanned the vast mountains, high and down, looking around, he could see the dense figures dotted on the fields more than ten miles away.
