Chapter 226: Time Lapses
The father-son relationship between Fusu and the First Emperor was extremely contradictory.
On the one hand, Fusu did not approve of the various behaviors, thoughts, and policies of the First Emperor, and on the other hand, Fusu longed for the approval of the First Emperor.
After the first emperor took the initiative to transform, in fact, the contradiction between father and son has quickly dissolved, but it is impossible for people to get close suddenly.
The First Emperor originally wanted to pull a strong man, but behind his behavior, he gradually recognized and affirmed Fusu's ability.
And Fusu ...... Why don't you want your father to recognize yourself in the true sense?
As a result, the First Emperor's plan to pull the Zhuangding succeeded without any hindrance.
Compared with Zhao Si, who is slippery and lazy, Fusu still has a lot of advantages, honest, obedient, and his ability is okay, but the most important thing is that his face is not as thick as Zhao Si.
One is willing to fight, the other is willing to suffer......
Naturally, it was unimpeded, and Daqin's political affairs were tilted towards Fusu after Zhao Si's vacation.
However, there is not much that Fusu can do, mainly because the current national policy of Daqin has been decided, and compared with the previous national policy, Fusu himself also recognizes the current policy of Daqin, except for the idea of occasionally popping up to improve the treatment of the brothers and sisters of the clan, in terms of national policy, Fusu and the First Emperor and even Zhao Si, three generations have rarely reached an agreement,
As the saying goes, brothers work together, and their strength breaks gold!
When the political goals of the ruler of an empire and the heir and the next heir are highly unified, the result is that no one can question or waver in the promotion of policy.
So the vigorous action of changing the law officially began......
After the court council publicly promulgated the new Qin law, the Qin state, with its complete post station system and excellent message transmission speed, took less than a month to spread the new decree of Great Qin to all counties of Great Qin.
Of course, it is only that the notice has arrived, it is really implemented, the people recognize and accept it, and the time required for the smooth implementation of the new Qin law will not be too short.
Although the new Qin law was a relaxation of restraints, it was easy for the people to accept the relaxation of restraints, and it was difficult for officials to break away from the old roles for a short time.
After all, they held the power of life and death in the past, although this power did not come from them, but the abolition of the old Qin law also meant that their power was greatly weakened.
It is not so much that the scope of power is weakened, but that the punishment is weakened.
In the same way, the new Qin law requires that the head of the Qian, rather than the old art of controlling the people, is also quite difficult to change.
So all of a sudden, the world was turbulent......
Above the court, the death of the old officials is a foregone conclusion, but the hundred-legged insects die without stiffening, and it will obviously take a long time to completely change the thinking of the officials in the administrative system without launching a major purge.
Of course......
Even if it has not been fully implemented in the real sense, even if the old bureaucratic system is still quite difficult to change its thinking.
However, just the abandonment of the old Qin law and the promulgation of the new Qin law are worthy of shaking the world!
At the same time, the abolitionist movement in various parts of the world also carried out rapidly after the first emperor returned to Xianyang.
Before the promulgation of the new Qin law, the abolition decree had been promulgated, but in addition to the smooth operation in the Guanzhong area, the implementation in the Guanzhong area was not as smooth as imagined.
The attitude of the local government is somewhat ambiguous and wait-and-see, after all, the abolition of slavery is also weakening the mobilization capacity of the local government in the strict sense.
The abolition order came from the hand of Zhao Si, not the first emperor, and the matter was very serious, and there was no possibility of reversal.
The attitude of the local government was ambiguous, and the political progress was slow, and the corresponding local slave-raising heroes and families naturally shirked it.
To put it bluntly, there is no confidence in the reactionary central government at the local level, at least not at present, but the abolition of slavery has really harmed local interests.
Zhao Si is not the number one after all, and it is understandable that he has a wait-and-see attitude.
However, the First Emperor returned, and the new Qin law was successfully promulgated, and the old Qin law was abandoned.
The old Qin law was one of the biggest confidence of the local government and the family.
Now that the old Qin laws have been abolished and the new Qin laws have been promulgated, Great Qin has a new ideological guidance......
And it is also the new Qin law led by Taisun and personally adopted by the First Emperor.
Because of the lack of a purge, the new law was promulgated without actually going through blood and fire to forge majesty.
In such a sensitive period, no one knows whether the slow progress of the abolition order will be a trigger.
They are all officials, and those with low political IQ can't survive, and there are not a few who can see it clearly, so the progress of the abolition order that was originally slow after the promulgation of the new Qin law can be described as rapid.
And those who can't understand the change in wind direction will at least follow the trend, and those who can't even follow the trend...... That which dies is also a vain death.
As a result, compared with the Guanzhong region, which is administratively efficient and clean, the speed of local politics is significantly slower by a cycle, and of course, the posting of new news notices is still timely, at least there has not been a situation where Xianyang promulgated a decree and it took a whole year to be transmitted to the locality.
Abolition ......
This means that the number of registered people in Great Qin will increase significantly.
And so it is, in fact......
In just one month, the total number of new people in the counties has increased by 5 million.
The new population may seem like a lot, but it's actually not that much.
At the very least, these five million people are not satisfied with the appetite of the northern and southern frontiers.
The actual population of Great Qin is 30 million, but of these 30 million people, there are more than 20 million, which are from the Central Plains inside and outside.
Judging from the territory of today's Great Qin, the Central Plains, which occupies a large number of people, is actually less than one-third of the total area of Great Qin.
Yes...... Even if the appetite of the northern and southern frontiers is satisfied, the appetite of the aviation and trade military government will not be satisfied.
In fact, the military government of aviation and trade has long been drooling over so many new people.
Great Qin's expansion was not only in the northern and southern frontiers.
It's just that compared with the expansion of the war in Longxi and Lingnan, the Shipping Trade Military Government really has no competitors and pressure because it has eaten the first crab.
But it does not mean that there is less land for the expansion of the aviation trade military government......
The entire offshore area, Wanwan, Silla, Baekje, Benzi, and the offshore islands of later generations were basically planted by Daqin.
Strictly speaking, the entire island in the southeast coastal sea is all within the territory of Great Qin.
Leaving aside the fact that there are still many islands that are still in an embarrassing situation where birds don't poop, it is not a problem for Fuso alone to accommodate a population of several million.
The military government has mentioned more than once that as long as it can get a population of 3 million, it will be able to use the head guarantee to complete the initial development of the large islands such as Fuso and Wanwan within five years, and to guarantee that the three islands will be expanded into fertile overseas soil within 20 years.
Believe it or not, don't mention it for the time being, Zhao Si still suppressed it.
It's not that Zhao Si doesn't pay attention to the Aviation Trade Military Government, but the current combat effectiveness of the Aviation Trade Military Government is sufficient, and the overseas system can also operate effectively.
In contrast, Zhao Si is not in a hurry to develop overseas, and his attention to overseas is mainly focused on the update and iteration of technology.
At present, Daqin's navigation technology is a bit embarrassing, and it is very capable of fighting, but it is not advanced enough, at least it cannot support a huge colonial system at present.
In this way, it is better to concentrate and completely digest the inland plate first to form a whole.
After all, Qin was a land-based country, at least in the short term.
Five million is a lot, but not enough, because at this point the liberation of slaves has come to an end.
A total of more than 7 million slaves were released, this thing is only once, after all, this is reality, not a game, and the population outside the household registration is not infinitely refreshed.
Through the slave release decree and the inventory of black households, it may be possible to get another one or two million people, but that's it, the fattest wave is gone, and the only way to increase the population in the future is to encourage childbearing.
At present, Daqin has no population pressure, and to be precise, in the next 50 years, Daqin is estimated to have no population pressure.
Food production is simply too high, and most importantly, there is still significant room for improvement in farming techniques.
Intensive cultivation has developed to the extreme, and the average grain yield per mu in the country can be increased by one or two hundred catties.
Plus sweet potatoes and potatoes per acre......
Just the Qin State itself, without excessively reducing the quality of life of the people, can also feed at least 200 million people.
If you take into account the planning of overseas......
With a population of 30 million, not even a fraction of Zhao Si's plan.
Guanzhong was jubilant because of the opening of the wine market for seven days, and the people of Lao Qin cheered.
Throughout Daqin, the abolition of slavery is also in full swing, and the new code has spread to all counties in the world.
Everything in Great Qin is thriving, but this is not the case in the Peacock Country.
Li Xin is good at using strange soldiers, and he is a little eager for quick success, but that is the former Li Xin.
After the First World War, Li Xin's combat style can only be described as stable, which is disgusting.
In the face of the filthy people and the Jizi Joseon, Li Shin can play with the other party until the withdrawal of troops under the condition of dominance and absolute initiative.
What's more, it was the naval expedition to conquer the Peacock Kingdom, which was strategically disadvantaged by Great Qin?
In fact, the Peacock Nation was not ignorant of Great Qin.
The King of the Giant Carriage is the King of Mediocrity, and the Peacock Kingdom is about to decline, but the decline of a country is not due to the absence of sages.
In fact, the more weakened the country, the greater the proportion of its virtuous and capable ministers, but the traitors are in power, the lord is mediocre, and people are useless.
The King of the Giant Car was dizzy and had to compete with Great Qin by force, and the courtiers could not disobey it, but some truly talented people still emerged.
The first is that the envoys of the Qin State were protected and were not executed by the enraged King of the Giant Carriage.
Secondly, the Peacock State is also actively searching for information about the Qin State, and the boss wants to go to war, regardless of whether he can fight it or not, he can only make strategic preparations now.
However, there is too little information about the Qin State, and there are indeed cadres who are surprised by Great Qin's mobilization ability and expeditionary ability, and realize that the Qin State is definitely an easy target for the Peacock State.
However, compared to these advices, the king of the giant car prefers to hear that the Qin State is not self-sufficient, and the so-called sea advantage is also minimal.
It's one thing to collect intelligence, it's one thing to be able to reach the ears of the king of the giant car, it's another thing for the king of the car to like to hear it or not, and the key is whether the king of the giant car believes the truth or not.
Obviously, the King of the Giant Car prefers to believe that the Peacock Kingdom is invincible.
Sri Sri was driven duck to the shelves in this case.
In fact, Sri Liro was a commander with a certain ability, and the strategic deployment proposed by Sri Lanka at the beginning was to wait for the Qin State to take the initiative to attack, abandon the coastal defense line, show the enemy weakness, lure the enemy deeper, focus on land superiority, and finally annihilate it.
In fact, this is indeed the most correct strategic deployment, if nothing else, with the strength of the 40,000 navy of the Qin State, even if it is tossed at sea for another three years and five years, what can it do? It is a big deal for the Mauryan country to abandon the coastal defense line, which is completely acceptable for a land country.
And once the Qin State gave up its sea superiority for landing operations, it meant that it gave up its greatest advantage, and the Peacock State could completely annihilate the Qin State's navy in one fell swoop.
40,000 men......
The strategy is good, but what Sri Lo said doesn't count.
After he made a strategic deployment, some people had already slandered the king of the giant car, criticizing his overly conservative strategy, impeaching him for raising his own dignity and treating the king's life negatively.
It seems that the same is true of the king of giant cars, the other party only has 40,000 people, and you take the initiative to give up the coastal route?
People are traveling thousands of miles, you are fighting at home, there are 40,000 people, you are overwhelming, and you choose to be a turtle?
Under pressure from the King of Giant Cars, Sri Ra had no choice but to change his strategy.
He still didn't choose to take the initiative, because he knew that the only advantage of the Qin State was the sea, and it was impossible for him to abandon his advantage.
Coping with it, give the king of the giant car the illusion that he took the initiative to seek the battlefield.
The second was a lure to attract Qin's navy to enter the coastal sea to fight, and try to give full play to the land advantage.
Third, it is convenient to retreat, as long as it is not far away and there is an army to respond, no matter how strong the Qin navy is, it is impossible to cause mass destruction, so that it can also retain mobility for the few navies of the Peacock State.
However, when a commander-in-chief has to deal with war and politics on the one hand, defeat on the battlefield has become an inevitability.
And so it is, in fact......
Sri R couldn't hide from the King of the Giant Cart, or the King of the Giant Carriage didn't care if Sri was deceived or not, what he cared about was that Sri was not making any progress for three months, plus the impeachment of the traitor......
Sri Liro was sent back to the royal city by the King of the Giant Carriage to press him back to the royal city in a prisoner cart, and by the way, he changed his commander, and at the same time, the King of the Giant Carriage once again asked the generals to destroy the invading navy of the Qin State as soon as possible.
Under the oppression of the Giant Carriage King, all of Sri Ra's plans collapsed.
There are not many ships in the Peacock Country, and the Qin army is wandering on the sea again.
If you want to ask for war, you can only send troops to the sea, even the far sea......
The strategic situation has not changed, but the Qin State has a clear advantage on the sea battlefield.
And now, the Peacock Kingdom has given up its advantages and entered the field that the Qin State is best at.
