Chapter 785: Comprehensive National Strength
Chapter 785: Comprehensive National Strength
"Don't worry. I don't just want to convince King Yan, but all the anti-Qin forces of Qi, Chu, Zhao, Han, and Wei." Qin An said, "I said that if you want to unify China, you must let China be unified.
Since reunification is to be made, there will be no anti-Qin forces in the country. I want the entire people of Daqin to contribute to the future of Huaxia.
I won't talk about anything else, but I'll just talk about what will be the comparison between countries in the world in the future."
"Military force, of course." Meng Yi said, "Only with a strong military force will other countries be afraid of you."
The others nodded one after another, and it was because of Great Qin's strong military strength that he was able to destroy the other six countries.
Qin An shook his head and said, "Military power is just one of them. In the future, the competition between countries will be comprehensive national strength.
The so-called comprehensive national strength includes a country's social nature, resources and environment, population, political power, economic situation, history, cultural ideology, military defense, and foreign relations. Ь.
It is the most important indicator to measure a country's basic national conditions and basic resources, and it is also a comprehensive index to measure a country's economic, political, military, and technological strength.
The competition in comprehensive national strength is mainly reflected in five aspects: basic entities, economic strength, military strength, internal and foreign affairs, science and technology."
"Sir, what is the overall national strength of Great Qin?" Meng Yi asked.
"If Great Qin did not unify the Six Kingdoms before, the comprehensive national strength was stronger than other countries, and now the Six Kingdoms are unified.
Then the overall national strength has changed, the population has increased, political power has begun to concentrate, and social instability has appeared. There have also been changes in military defense, which used to defend the Six Kingdoms, and now defends against the Xiongnu.
In the past, there was only one national army, but now there are six national troops. I know that after Great Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms. The vast majority of the troops of the Six Kingdoms were all absorbed by the imperial court.
Economically, agriculture is important and business is suppressed, so it is conceivable that technology is basically what was invented by the Mohists and the public losers, at most there are some improvements in military technology, and nothing else." Qin An explained.
"That's not right." Meng Yi said, "Sir, now that the economy is very developed, the imperial court no longer emphasizes agriculture and suppresses commerce."
Qin An was speechless and said, "I know, what I said was before, and now, of course, it is the first in the world, whether it is military or cultural education.
As for diplomacy, hmph, all countries in the world will take the initiative to make friends with Great Qin. Other countries are simply not comparable.
Needless to say, ten years later, it is said that now, Daqin is already the world's number one, and the only shortcoming is the population.
In later generations, there will be a population of 1.4 billion, and the current population will not be a fraction of the population of later generations.
This made me dare not take too big a step all of a sudden.
If there were 1.4 billion people now, the first thing I would do would be to build roads, to build a road to the whole world.
In this way, you can attack the whole world, occupy a place, and there are Chinese people to protect this place.
It's a pity that all this is a beautiful dream, and if you want to realize it, you need to wait a few more years, and besides, you need to take your time to build roads in China, and you can't build too long roads all at once."
"Don't worry, sir. We will definitely increase the population of Great Qin." Meng Yi said.
Qin An nodded and said, "I believe in you, and I also believe in Great Qin. Alright, that's pretty much it, it's time for us to go.
In the car, I would like to tell you about my future in China's politics, economy, military, education, etc., and I hope you can get inspiration from it."
In the following time, everyone was not very bored, and Qin An was talking about some future things, or some stories, every day.
In particular, from the beginning of their founding to their prosperity and their eventual demise, everyone has been learning from them.
This made Zhang Liang and others realize that the revival and demise of the dynasty had a lot to do with the emperor.
If the emperor is strong, the country will be strong, and if the emperor is weak, the country will be weak.
Although the competence of the ministers is also important, but one
A powerful emperor can be a meritocracy, this minister can't, you can find a minister who can do it. Ь.
The most important thing in China is talent, even when the national crisis is at the head. There are also many capable people who can turn the tide.
But once the emperor becomes a faint king, a tyrant, a self-righteous emperor, then the country is in danger.
Maybe you are lucky, your parents have laid a strong foundation for you, so that you can be a king of success, Huo Huo for several generations, and finally died in the country.
Although Zhang Liang, Meng Yi and Gan Luo were courtiers, they were lucky to have such a powerful emperor as the First Emperor.
Only by working under a strong and wise emperor can their talents have a chance to develop.
After more than ten days of traveling, they came to Daliang, the capital of Wei, and now a city in the city of Daqin. Ь.
In fact, they had other ways to go to Yandi, but Qin An chose to pass through Daliang for a very simple reason, because Daliang was the capital of Wei.
Although it is not now, as the king of Wei, he will definitely not be willing to leave here, and he is even ready to return to the country at any time.
If you want to restore the country, the world must first be in chaos.
If you want the world to be in chaos, you have to die the first emperor.
Qin An is very sure that the current Wei Wang Ming is an ordinary person on the surface, but in fact he still controls some forces in Daliang City.
And these forces, and the anti-Qin forces that controlled the entire Wei region, are now dormant, and the imperial court and local officials do not know, or they do not move when they know.
This is the generosity of the First Emperor.
How could Ying Zheng not know that after he unified the Six Kingdoms, the people of the Six Nations were only obedient on the surface, and they were all anti-Qin in their hearts.
He could kill those people, but he couldn't kill all the people in the world, so he used forced labor to transfer the people of Wei to Qi and the people of Qi to Zhao, so that the people of all countries could not unite against Qin.
In fact, this trick was very good, but when it was implemented, the officials or soldiers were too violent, causing the people to complain, and finally they all hated Daqin.
And the reason for all this is the system of the Qin Dynasty, Yingzheng is still implementing the system of Shang Dynasty, which has become obsolete after the unification of the six countries by Qin.
Continuing to execute would only hasten the demise of Great Qin.
"Sir, the city of Great Liang has arrived." Meng Yi said.
Qin An bowed his head and said, "Tell me to go down, and we will rest for three days before we set off."
"No."
When everyone learned that the break had allowed them to set off again, everyone was excited.
This time it was a publicly-funded tour, and they didn't need to spend a penny on the whole process, so after everyone arrived at the inn, the first thing was to visit Daliang City.
In this regard, Qin An did not have any constraints, only one request, that is, they could not leave one behind after three days, so everyone had an unwritten agreement that they would never drink alcohol on the last night.
