Chapter 234: Great Qin in Five Years! (Finale!) )
20,000 soldiers and horses of Great Qin came to the Peacock King Capital.
There are only two choices in front of the King of Giant Cars.
Either fight or and.
There are also two choices to fight, one is to choose to go out of the city to fight, and the other is to slowly draw it, waiting for the teams from all over the country to surround and follow behind.
Li Xin was ready to defend the field battle with the Peacock King.
It is impossible to attack the city, this is the capital of the Peacock Kingdom, Li Xin is at most in the vicinity to show off his might twice, once the city is attacked, he will double his soldiers and horses I am afraid that he will have to explain here.
But it is clear that the Peacock State still has an absolute advantage.
Li Xin had no backup, and he fought in the hinterland again, and the royal capital of the Peacock Kingdom was only as many elite soldiers and horses as Li Xin, and there was a broad base of people, and it was backed by a strong city......
But what Li Xin didn't expect was that when the soldiers came to the city, the originally invincible King of the Giant Car actually chose peace talks!
……
"Li Xinbing is in the capital of the Peacock King...... The Peacock Nation has a truce and a covenant is signed! ”
Zhao Si raised the report in his hand high, and then sighed.
"Sure enough, it's still that Li Xin......" Zhao Si handed the report to Wang Jian who was at ease with the old god on the side.
"It's just a risky move, it's just bullying the Peacock Country and not making good use of soldiers." Wang Jian didn't even bother to answer the newspaper and said casually.
"If there is a Xiang Yan in the Peacock Country, it will be enough for him Li Xin to come and go."
Zhao Si didn't deny it when he heard this, there was nothing wrong with what he said.
Li Xinbing came to the royal capital, which sounds very powerful, and his record is also very bluffing, but in fact it is not like that.
Running over first, and hitting down are two different concepts entirely.
Secondly, Li Xin may not be able to win, but the Peacock Kingdom chose not to fight.
If the King of the Giant Carriage is a flesh-and-blood king, facing Li Xin's soldiers approaching the city and choosing to fight in the field, the victory or defeat is still between the best.
The Peacock Country is the boss of the empire, it has reached the end of the dynasty, although the Qin soldiers are fighting away, but the elite morale of the well-equipped soldiers is high, the Peacock Country may not be able to win the field battle, but it has geographical advantages, and it may not be lost.
But if the King of the Giant Car is a person who knows the soldiers, he only needs to use a little means to make Li Xin have no return.
For the specific method, please refer to Xiang Yan......
Li Xin has no backup, and the Peacock King only needs to hold on, and send troops to follow, not fighting head-on, waiting for reinforcements from all over the country to arrive, and it is a question whether Li Xin's 20,000 horses can get out alive.
"But who made the King of Giant Cars a fierce and inward-looking person?" Zhao Si laughed when he heard this.
"Besides, what the old general said is good, but as everyone knows, there is only one Xiang Yan in the entire Chu State." A smile appeared on Zhao Si's face.
"And it's the national capital, even if there is a certainty of victory, but who dares to bet? Out of the city field battle, once the defeat and the elite are lost, the siege will become a siege! ”
"Sometimes, it's also a skill to be able to recognize how bad the enemy is and use a wealth of experience to get the most out of it." Zhao Si smiled and spoke.
It's hard to say how many times Li Xin and Wang Jian have opened Zhao Si now, but if you want to talk about the experience of abusing vegetables, Wang Jian is definitely not as rich as Li Xin.
In short, Wang Jian can fight anyone.
It's hard to say that Li Xin beat Wang Qian, but the proportion of abused vegetables is twice as high as that of Wang Qian.
To put it bluntly, it is a trash fish attack...... And unfortunately, in this era, except for Daqin, other countries in the world, in terms of military strength, are indeed miscellaneous fish.
"His Royal Highness is also wrong, the king of the giant car can also pretend to negotiate peace and delay for time, once it repeats, Li Xin is also in danger of overturning......" Wang Jian shook his head, thinking that the risk of Li Xin's behavior was not only that.
"The old general is wrong about this, it's hard to say what kind of person the king of the giant car is, but one thing is certain, the moment he opens his mouth to choose peace talks, it is impossible to have any repetition, this is not to say how confident the king of the giant car is......" Zhao Si smiled.
It's because as long as the King of Giant Cars relaxes, all the forces in the entire Peacock Country will force this matter to become a fact.
In other words, in fact, from the moment the king of the giant car bowed his head and chose peace talks, whether it was a conspiracy or a strategy to delay the army, from this moment on, it had already been decided.
"How long has this war been fought? Played for two years! ”
"It is true that Daqin also spent a lot of money because of this, but only we know how much Daqin spent, and there is no way to know how much the Peacock Country spent on grain and grass logistics, and Lone knows that this battle is over, but no one in the Peacock Country knows how long Daqin plans to fight.
Even if they had someone who knew the soldiers, they could only guess how much Great Qin would spend, not to mention that Great Qin still had high-yield grain, which would greatly affect their judgment......
However, they didn't know about Great Qin, but they knew how much they had spent in the past two years......
Human lives, ships, armaments, food and grass......
And this war was only because the King of the Giant Car secretly detained Great Qin's envoy and was disrespectful to Great Qin.
The King of the Giant Carriage may still have the idea of delaying the army with peace talks, and then wait for the arrival of reinforcements to bury Li Xin's 20,000 soldiers and horses here completely, to be honest, no matter what kind of speculation is made for a person like the King of the Giant Carriage, it is not too much......
But with such a treacherous thing, who would dare to bet that Great Qin would not launch a bigger and longer war?
In the entire Peacock Country, who wants to fight a war without any interests and lose everything?
Even careerists don't want to...... Because if they win, they will not be profitable. ”
"So...... Once there is a truce, the rest will already fall into place......"
Wang Jian glanced at Zhao Si, who was talking with a little surprise, patted his head and smiled, as if he was sighing something, and then sighed and said, "So, Wang Li will be back soon?" ”
"Now that the war has stopped, it is natural that it will come back." Zhao Si smiled.
Wang Jian nodded when he heard this...... He agreed with Zhao Si's eloquent talk, and felt that while Zhao Si was growing rapidly, he was a little annoyed.
You shouldn't be unable to remember these things yourself...... He is a man of nationhood...... But it really missed this stubble.
The ravages of time are getting heavier and heavier, not only physically, but also in the brain as if they were not as clear as before.
"So...... It's time to prepare to send an emissary to the Peacock Nation! Zhao Sizhi laughed proudly and walked away.
Wang Jian looked at Zhao Si's back and was a little silent.
I probably can't help my grandchildren anymore......
Following......
The news that Li Xinbing came to the Peacock State to force the Peacock State to release the Great Qin envoy and sign a truce alliance resounded throughout Xianyang.
This is of course thanks to Zhao Si's encouragement, although the real people who know the soldiers know the great water of this battle, but the ordinary people in this world are the majority.
The soldiers are approaching the enemy's king's capital, and the city is forced to surrender!
Sounds awesome and it's over!
The entire Great Qin breathed a sigh of relief in addition to joy.
This war is finally over.
Yes, this war was very painful for the Peacock Kingdom, and the Manchu ministers of Great Qin were also suffering.
Now it is an indisputable fact that Daqin's military is completely controlled by Zhao Si, although compared to the first emperor Zhao Si, His Royal Highness the grandson, it is enough restraint, but the cost of the expedition of thousands of miles, especially in the absence of actual territorial expansion and interests, no one wants to fight.
That is to say, the Great Qin family is rich, and everyone sells Zhao Si, His Royal Highness the Grand Sun, to save face.
Of course, in the eyes of most people, this war is nothing more than a battle of will, and there is no gain except for a breath, but Zhao Si knows how much benefit he will bring after getting the Peacock Country, a country as huge as Daqin, but there is no need to explain it, and when trade is completely opened, everyone will know what this means.
On the seventh day of the arrival of the good news in Xianyang, Zhao Si officially held a grand court meeting.
Three days later, the First Emperor sacrificed heaven and earth to show his martial arts.
On the same day, the envoys of the Qin State officially set out from Xianyang to the Peacock Kingdom.
And in China, it is still in full swing of construction.
The sea is far away, and it takes longer for the fruits of a victory to be revealed.
As for maritime affairs, because of the lack of obvious interests, the domestic wind still lies in the reshuffle of political forces.
The effects of the old law innovation are still being further demonstrated.
The ideological transformation of the old officials group was not too smooth, and the implementation of the new Qin law and the change of thinking made many old officials fall behind because of this, after all, not all of them had such a flexible political stance as Li Xiang.
As a result, the oppressed group of new officials has received almost all the political legacies of the old officials.
At the end of the forty-fourth year of the First Emperor......
Wang Jian took the initiative to send a minister, Zhao Si failed to retain him three times, the Taiwei was vacant, and the Taisun Zhao Si supervised the military affairs and held the power of the Taiwei, and the Taiwei was temporarily vacant.
In the same year, Teng, the representative figure of the new officials, was promoted to the prime minister of Zuo and became the first person under Li Si.
In the forty-fifth year of the first emperor, the school assessment officially faced the sons of the hundred schools without being limited by the lawyers.
All of a sudden, the hundreds of schools of thought can be described as eight immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers.
In the same year, Mizi Joseon and Wei formally broke with each other and went to war.
In the same year, Great Qin formally signed an alliance with the Peacock State, opening up the regulations on mutual trade, and Great Qin's merchant ships officially passed through the Indian Ocean.
At the same time, due to the gradual maturity of overseas shipping lanes and the fact that Zhao Si did not explicitly prohibit it, some nobles have begun to try offshore trade, mainly in coastal cities such as Langya and Penglai.
Zhao Si noticed this scene, but did not formulate the corresponding law immediately.
This is an era of expansion and progress, as well as an era of construction and labor.
At present, the main tone is the construction of large infrastructure, navigation is not yet the mainstream, it takes a certain amount of time to grow and develop, and the formulation of maritime order requires a certain amount of time to observe and adjust.
The counties and counties of Daqin are in a vigorous and vigorous work...... Five years have passed.
In the blink of an eye, it has reached the forty-ninth year of the first emperor......
Inside the Palace...... Under the pavilion, Zhao Si and the First Emperor sat opposite each other.
The little slave sat like a dog on the stone steps not far away, and endorsed aloud.
Today's little slave is more than six years old...... The little guy looks more like Zhao Si, or after speaking, it is completely a Q version of Zhao Si.
When you are quiet and endorse, you can say that your face is like a crown of jade, and there is a noble atmosphere between your bodies.
But if you look closely, you can see that while reciting the book, the little guy's eyes peeked at the pavilion on Zhao Si and the First Emperor's side from time to time.
"For example, most of the water channels and roads in various places have been completely connected, and some of the remaining ones are nothing more than things between the townships, which no longer need to be levied labor, and the villagers can build their own ......" Zhao Si smiled and reported to the First Emperor the results of the five consecutive years of construction in Daqin.
The so-called results are the channels that thoroughly connect the counties of the world, the canals all over the world, and the governance of the great rivers.
Under the continuous construction of the Central Plains region in the past five years, the development has reached the extreme.
As for the marginal areas, they have also been initially developed.
At present, it is conservatively estimated that the average grain yield per mu in Daqin can be increased by another 100 catties.
You can't underestimate this 100 catties, because this 100 catties is a basic bonus, even if there is no ordinary grain species with a jade halo, it can currently achieve a yield of 200 catties per mu.
Of course, it is limited to the Central Plains, and a large part of the reason for such a big increase is that the previous cultivation methods are too primitive, the natural use is too low, and the average yield per mu is too low.
"It's time for the servitude in the world to stop, and the mausoleum and palace of the eldest father can also be freed up for construction." Zhao Si said with a smile.
In fact, the First Emperor paid a lot for Zhao Si's political purposes, including but not limited to the suspension of the palace and mausoleum originally planned by the First Emperor.
It is not only a Fang Palace and the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang that stops, A Fang Palace is just a representative, in fact, the palaces everywhere in the world have also stopped, since the tax reduction, the first emperor did not build a new palace.
"It's not a hurry......" Hearing this, the First Emperor narrowed his eyes.
The ancients didn't shy away from death, especially mausoleums, which began to be built while they were alive.
The reason why the first emperor was not in a hurry was that he felt that he still had a long time to live.
Strange to say, I used to feel that time was running out and I was quite urgent to do anything, but now I feel that everything can be relieved.
"It's best not to rush, in fact, it shouldn't take long for the craftsman bureau to get new building materials, and there should be new upgrades to construction tools in a few years...... I'm mainly afraid that my father will wait for a long time. Zhao Si smiled.
In the past five years, in addition to the changes in society, the craftsman's side has naturally innovated.
First of all, the ratio of gunpowder is formalized, and it will be put into large-scale production as Shaofu.
The second is the birth of muskets and artillery, the power should be and the firearms of the Ming and Qing dynasties, but five years is too short, too late to upgrade the equipment of the whole army, at present it will be made as a Shaofu is in urgent production, because the weapons are too few, and priority must be given to the navy, so at present there is only a pure firearms force of 5,000 people in Guanzhong, and it is still in training.
As for sea vessels, Daqin also has 20 sea ships equipped with large guns and more than 50 sea ships equipped with small and medium-sized artillery, all of which are newly built sea ships in various places during the past five years.
The main reason for the strong support of Zhao Si is that the shipping and trade military government has its own small treasury, and as long as Zhao Si makes a decision, no one can stop the aviation and trade military government from strengthening the navy.
Not convinced? Unconvinced, go to earn military expenses by yourself.
"How?" The First Emperor glared at Zhao Si when he heard this.
Are you afraid that you will have to wait a long time? Well? This can indeed wait a little longer.
Zhao Si scratched his head when he heard the sound and laughed twice, so he couldn't speak.
"I plan to survey the world...... "The First Emperor didn't continue to investigate, but just spoke.
"The construction of all places needs to be inspected ......," the first emperor said with a glance the significance of the grand inspection of the world.
"Take me?" Zhao Si automatically filtered the first emperor's tirade and asked the key question.
"Without ......," the First Emperor shook his head.
"Father...... This is what I said before, no joke! Zhao Si opened his mouth quietly.
"Someone has to be in charge ......of Xianyang," the First Emperor shook his head.
"Isn't that still a father?" Zhao Si said.
"They don't recognize ......," the First Emperor spoke, and Zhao Si fell silent when he heard the sound.
Yes, in terms of political affairs, they may recognize it, but in terms of military affairs, Zhao Si is almost completely dominant.
And it just so happens ...... The war between Wei and Jizi Korea had reached a fever pitch, and Daqin's diplomatic activities were in full swing.
At present, the Peacock Kingdom has experienced a decline after the First World War five years ago, local forces have set off rebellions, wolves are everywhere, Daqin is intervening in the war while doing business, and almost the entire area of India has a feeling of being ready to move......
"Besides, the Xiongnu have invaded the Western Regions, and you value the sea, but you can't ignore it on land, I heard that the Dayue Clan has been restored in the Western Regions? Is there such a thing? The First Emperor asked.
"Strictly speaking, it's not a restoration of the country...... After the defeat of the Otsuki clan, the nobles mainly of the Kushan clan migrated westward, and now they are considered to have entered other countries...... Well, it might be more appropriate to say that it is borrowed to resurrect the soul, in short, the Otsuki clan is no longer there. Zhao Si shook his head.
"It is impossible for the Western Regions to be controlled by the Huns, if the Da Yue clan returns to the country, they can find a way to send envoys to contact, leaning on their arms, and the Western Regions cannot relax, Mao Dun is a male lord, and sooner or later there will be a ......war," the first emperor said.
"This is true, although the maritime affairs are heavy, but the foundation of the country is on land after all." Zhao Si nodded.
"Now that the navy and army are generals, there are factions, and you can't favor one over the other......" The First Emperor replied.
"Your father may not be able to understand these things, but what about seeing them? They may not listen to your father, but will your father not fight them if they do not fight? So you have to stay in Xianyang...... I can't go anywhere. The First Emperor spoke.
When Zhao Si heard this, he was silent for a moment and finally gave up struggling.
Where there are people, there is competition......
At present, the Great Qin military has been faintly divided into two factions, namely the army department and the navy department.
The main reason for the factional division is that Great Qin currently attaches great importance to maritime affairs.
And it just so happens that the military government of aviation and trade is independent of the three princes and nine secretaries, and at the same time has its own financial revenue.
On top of that, the maritime side has brought more and more benefits over time.
In terms of reputation, the prosperity of the coming dynasty of all nations was laid by the navy.
In terms of interests, signing an alliance with the Peacock State, Daqin dominated overseas trade as a warmonger, and also made Daqin make a lot of money.
If you can fight, your fist will be big enough.
If you can make money, your fists will be hard enough.
can fight and make money, so it is naturally big and hard.
Compared to the Navy, the Army is more embarrassing.
At present, the significance of the army lies in opening up and expanding the territory, and the harvest is naturally there, and the new land in Lingnan and the new land in the north are both expanded by the army.
But the problem is that in addition to the expansion of the territory, the income is pitiful, and it has not brought more income and industry, and what is even worse is that in the short term, these two places have already swallowed a lot of money, and a lot of this money is still earned by the navy.
How is it possible not to form factions?
And if you really want to say that the navy is not far behind in expanding the territory, at least the offshore islands are basically occupied by the navy, coupled with Zhao Si's focus, after Wang Jian Zhishi, the army actually has a feeling of being suppressed.
The current leader of the navy is Li Xin, because of his reputation and only one loss, and he is still a veteran genius general, the navy can be said to be in the limelight for a while.
As for the army, Wang Jian Zhishi has not been able to compete with Li Xin for a long time.
Meng Tian was steadily suppressed by Li Xin in the old era, let alone in the new era?
"Let's fight west......" Zhao Si was silent for a moment.
"The pattern of the sea has almost been decided, and it is time to fight west...... Zhao Si said.
"Who are you going to use?" The First Emperor asked.
"Although Li Xin has lost, it is difficult for ordinary people to suppress Li Xin, Meng Tian can't do it, and Zhao Tuo can't do it......" Emperor Shi said.
"If it is said that the court is against the court, the Xiang nationality is enough, and if it is said that the pressure is stable, I am afraid that the only thing I can think of is Han Xin." Zhao Si smiled and spoke.
"Han Xin is rebellious and talented, and it is easy to push it up, but ......" the First Emperor said quietly.
"The eldest father can trust himself, but he can't trust his grandson?" Zhao Si raised his eyebrows.
"I'm holding it down!"
The First Emperor smiled, but his eyes fell on the little slave who was peeking at him.
"Don't worry, big father, the little slave is not stupid!" Zhao Si opened his mouth quietly.
"If you know it......" The First Emperor smiled.
The grandfather and grandson looked at each other speechlessly, and after a long time, the first emperor spoke: "I will visit the world this time, and it will take a little longer." ”
"Then the eldest father can take the little slave, and he can tease him on the way." Zhao Si said when he heard this.
Although he couldn't go with him, Zhao Si still cared about the health of the First Emperor.
Fortunately, the little slave inherited his own miracle, and he could ensure his health with him, so he didn't have to worry about the first emperor leaving himself and returning to the west directly.
"Hmm...... Before leaving, I will sacrifice heaven and earth, and Xu Ling will supervise the country. The First Emperor spoke.
"Prison ......" Zhao Si spread his hands, anyway, he already has experience.
"But what are you going to do after Father has been there for so long? You don't really plan to make a private visit to the microserver, right? Zhao Sihu looked at the First Emperor suspiciously.
"Find out if there is a Queen Mother of the West in the world!" The First Emperor laughed and got up when he heard this, then thought for a while, and took out the jade seal of the country from his bosom.
With a slight flick of his wrist, the jade seal engraved with the heirloom of Yongchang was ordered by Tianji Yongchang and flew towards Zhao Si.
"I don't know when I'll come back, I'll leave it to you."
Zhao Si caught it steadily, and glanced at the First Emperor with disgust: "Father is really not afraid of being broken." ”
"This is the heirloom jade seal!"
Although it has been a long time, some of the thinking of modern people is still there, and this thing is still quite rare.
"Haha......" The First Emperor laughed when he heard this.
"I said he was the heirloom jade seal, he is!"
The voice of the heroic dry cloud was mixed with a little old and a little relieved.
