Ying Zheng said with a smile: "The widow also congratulates the soldiers!" ”

"When the soldiers return, the widow will be rewarded!"

As soon as the words changed, Ying Zheng continued: "The situation of this battle has changed, what do you think Aiqing should do next?" ”

Han Cang jumped out directly: "Grain!" ”

"King Qiqi! Now that our Great Qin has turned from defense to attack, we can penetrate deep into the enemy's territory. ”

"The minister's advice ordered the generals to pay more attention to the enemy's grain and grass and seize the enemy's grain and grass."

"At the same time, transport gold and copper to the front line, and ask the generals to find rich merchants from all over the country to buy grain and grass, and eat as much as possible to the enemy, so as to reduce the burden of my Great Qin's grain, grass and baggage!"

The granaries of the wealthy families and merchants of Daqin have been looted by Han Cang to the point that the rats want to cry when they see them.

But the imperial court of other countries does not have such a strong executive power as the Great Qin court.

The rich and merchants of other countries must still have food in stock!

As long as the generals hold gold and bronze in their left hands and blades in their right hands, Han Cang believes that they will definitely be able to gain something.

Xiong Qi said: "The minister thinks that what Han Shangqing said is reasonable, but the ways and means need to be paid more attention. ”

"Big players in various places have a great influence on each place."

"I, Daqin, can negotiate and buy, but I can't ignore the wishes of the rich and forcibly buy."

"Otherwise, it may provoke a popular uprising!"

Han Cang is indeed dedicated to Daqin, but Han Cang is also trampling on the ownership of the powerful people's private property!

Today, Xiong Qi does not shout for the magnates in the occupied area, and such a crisis may appear to Xiong Qi tomorrow!

The other ministers also wanted to debate, but Yingzheng said lightly: "There is no need to worry about the civil unturn. ”

"If the rich man is coerced by the first person to change, he will be killed!"

"In this way, more grain and grass will be seized."

Ying Zheng is very dissatisfied with the big families in the old Chu land.

Very dissatisfied!

They dare to backstab and become a toad!

If they wholeheartedly atone for their sins, they will be successful.

But if they don't even want to sell all the grain to Ying Chengcheng at a low price, then Ying Zheng will not hesitate to kill!

Listening to Ying Zheng's bland but murderous words, the ministers were shocked.

Even Han Cang whispered after struggling inwardly, "King, is this a bit too radical?" ”

Ying Zheng said in a deep voice: "This matter is so decided, there is no need to discuss it again!" ”

The ministers had no choice but to give up the order.

Li Si stepped forward and said: "The king, the minister thinks that the most important thing now is to give Chang'an Jun a clear order. ”

Li Si said with a smile: "Chang'anjun has been fighting successively since Rong, but he is mostly trapped by the frequent changes in the battle situation, and occasionally cannot get in touch with the imperial court in time, and marches according to the orders of the imperial court. ”

"Now Chang'anjun took the initiative to ask the imperial court about the next strategic direction, and the minister thought that he should respond as soon as possible!"

The course and results of the Battle of Echeng were so outrageous that they attracted the full attention of all the courtiers.

It wasn't until Li Si mentioned it that the ministers realized a problem that was even more outrageous than the Battle of Echeng.

The ministers were in an uproar: "Chang'anjun asked the court for advice?" ”

"This official remembers that Chang Anjun did ask about the next strategy in the military newspaper, and Chang Anjun asked the court for advice!"

"The Emperor of the Quartet, Chang'an Jun can remember that there is a court behind him!"

Li Si said it more tactfully.

But in fact, how could Ying Chengcheng be 'occasionally' unable to march according to the military strategy of the imperial court?

Ying Chengcheng has never marched according to the military strategy of the imperial court!

As long as Ying Cheng Chan stepped out of the range of Xianyang City, no matter how it was discussed before the war, no matter how many orders the imperial court issued, Ying Cheng Chan didn't even look at it.

Not only did the enemy country not know how Ying Cheng was going to fight, but even the Great Qin monarchs and ministers didn't know where Ying Cheng was going tomorrow.

But now, oh my God!

The sun is coming out in the west!

Ying Chengcheng asked the court for an order!

Han Cang even cried with joy: "Quick! Colleagues, hurry up and make a decision for Chang'anjun! ”

Wei Yi and other courtiers also nodded excitedly: "Not bad!" Chang'anjun finally asked the imperial court about the military strategy, and we definitely chilled Chang'anjun's heart! ”

"We must carefully consider and summon the interrogation as soon as possible, so that we can cultivate the habit of encouraging Chang'anjun to ask the court for advice!"

"What is Chang Anjun asking?"

For almost all the imperial courts and generals, unless the generals want to rebel, the imperial court has extremely strong control over the generals.

Wherever the court points out, the generals have to fight.

If the court wants to change generals, the generals have to return to the court obediently.

It doesn't matter if you are Bai Qi, Li Mu or Lian Po, obeying the orders of the imperial court is the obligation that generals must fulfill!

Otherwise, die!

But at this moment, the Great Qin Junchen faced the military report of Ying Chengcheng asking for orders, as if he had received some gift, and his excited head was almost blank!

And the initiator of all this not only felt that there was anything wrong with this meeting, but even laughed loudly: "Brother Wang has finally grown up!" ”

This is the happiest thing for Ying Zheng.

Look!

Let's take a look!

The widow's brother knew that he had considered the widow, knew that he had to discuss with the widow when he was in doubt, and knew that he felt sorry for the widow!

What a good boy!

The widow is very comforted!

Giving Li Si a satisfied look, Ying Zheng said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, Brother Wang and General Jian all thought that they should take advantage of the victory to continue to advance eastward, seize the land of Chu State, and seize the grain of Chu State. ”

"However, in addition to seizing the Jiangdong Anointed Land, whether to attack Lu City again, Brother Wang couldn't decide, so he replied and asked."

Han Cang was slightly puzzled: "Chang'anjun thinks that the city is strong and not easy to break?" ”

Ying Zheng shook his head, his eyes full of pride: "It is not difficult for Brother Wang to break through the city!" ”

"Brother Wang's concern is whether my Great Qin has enough officials to control such a vast land."

Ying Zheng unconsciously raised his voice, for fear that any courtier would not know how sensible Ying Cheng was.

Han Cang couldn't understand Ying Zheng's ostentatious feelings at all.

Recalling the land conditions south of the Yangtze River, Han Cang said slowly: "The land in the south of the Yangtze River is barren, the terrain is rugged, difficult to cultivate, and there are many insects, so it is by no means a good land. ”

"Jiangnan is far away from Daqin, and it takes a lot of money to transport grain, grass, baggage and people from Guanzhong to Jiangnan!"

"And in recent years, my Great Qin has won successive battles, that is, the existing land has not been completed, and the water conservancy that should be repaired has not been completed for a long time, so I really can't go to the south of the Yangtze River again."

"That's why, the minister thinks that for my Great Qin, the Jiangnan region headed by Lucheng is not a benefit, but a burden!"

During the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bi, the king of Wu, mined copper to cast money, boiled the sea for salt, and canceled the taxes of the whole territory of Wudi, which ushered in the first peak of development in the south of the Yangtze River.

After a series of historical changes such as the vigorous development of the Eastern Wu regime, the successive development of the Song, Qi, Liang and Chen regimes in the Southern Dynasties, the southern crossing of clothes, and the digging of the North-South Grand Canal, the south of the Yangtze River finally caught up with Shu and got the reputation of 'Yang Yi Yi Two'.

It was not until the Song Dynasty that this place finally became the rich Jiangnan of 'Su Changshu, the world's foot' and 'heaven above, Suzhou and Hangzhou below'.

But that's the future of Jiangnandi, not the present of Jiangnandi!

In this era, Jiangnan is really a poor and remote area where Han Cang just wants to shake his head.

The little bit of grain in Jiangnan real estate is not even enough for the people to eat from Jiangnan to Guanzhong!

What's the use?

Xiong Qi immediately stepped forward: "How can the major affairs of the country be considered only in terms of economy and money and food?" ”

"We should focus on the general trend!"

"Jiangnan is barren, but it also helps Wu Guocheng become a generation of overlords!"

"In this battle, my Great Qin wiped out the main force of the Chu State, but this does not mean that the Chu State no longer has the power to resist."

"There are still a large number of soldiers left in the mansions of the people of Chu State, and it only takes a little time to complete the assembly and attack our Great Qin again."

"Therefore, the minister thinks that I, the Great Qinhe, should take advantage of the situation to attack the city as much as possible to weaken the strength of the Chu State!"

Wei Yi shook his head: "If we really focus on the general trend, then my Great Qin can only attack the city at most, but I will never be able to capture the city." ”

"This prince thinks that even Jiangbei cannot be taken completely, and it is necessary to leave a passage sufficient for the Chu State to march to the Qi State to ensure that the war between the two countries of Chu and Qi continues."

"Otherwise, the State of Chu will only border my Great Qin, and in the future, all the troops of the State of Chu will point to my Great Qin."

"The biggest threat to the Qi State has also changed from the Chu State to my Great Qin, and this Duke thinks that the Qi State may no longer maintain its current attitude, but choose to be the enemy of my Great Qin!"

"At that time, my Great Qin may be the enemy of the world!"

Could it be that Qi Guo naturally likes to follow behind Qin State?

Not at all!

Even if he suffered the hardship of losing the country, the Qi State never lost his ambition and participated in the invasion of Qin many times.

It was the successive attacks of Chu, Zhao, and Yan, especially the long-term harassment of the hinterland of the Qi State by the Chu State, which forced the queen of the Qi State to choose to ally with Qin!

Once the threat from the Chu side is lost, the position of the Qi State is likely to be reversed!

Mi Li refuted in a deep voice: "Looking ahead and looking backward is not the heart that embezzles the world!" ”

"Sooner or later, my Great Qin will be the enemy of Qi, so why should I influence my Great Qin national policy because of weak Qi?"

"If such a good opportunity is missed, what price will my Great Qin have to pay in the future to break through the city!"

Under the high platform, the ministers were noisy.

On the high platform, Yingzheng's heart fluctuated.

Expanding territory is the most addictive poison for any king.

The unification of the world is the obsession of Yingzheng.

And before the unification of the world, the first thing to do is to take all the borders of the world!

Now, the opportunity to break through the city and completely abolish a great enemy is just around the corner, how can Yingzheng not be enthusiastic!

After listening to it for a long time, Ying Zheng finally said with a little excitement: "What Xiangbang said is reasonable!" ”

As soon as Li Si heard this, he knew that it was broken!

The king is on top!

The king of the upper state can hardly listen to anyone's advice!

Apart from......

Li Si took a step forward and shouted: "King Qiqi, the minister thinks that before deciding on the military strategy, he should answer Chang'anjun's question first. ”

"Are my Great Qin's officials enough to control Chu Land?"

Feng Quji, Wang Juan and Han Cang all spoke loudly:

"Far from enough!"

Ying Zheng frowned slightly and didn't say a word.

Li Si bowed his hand and saluted again: "Dare to ask the king, do you want this conclusion to be summoned to Chang'anjun first, and allow Chang'anjun to make his own decision?" ”

"After all, the battle situation on the front line is changing like the wind, and even Chang'anjun may not be able to easily break through the city."

"If we take the lead in agreeing to seize the city, will we add unnecessary burdens to Chang'anjun, or even drive Chang'anjun to take the risk?"

Li Si almost leaned into Ying Zheng's ear and whispered: "King, you don't want your brother to charge in person, do you?"

Li Si said seriously: "And Chang'anjun has always turned like the wind and traveled like electricity. ”

"Don't allow us to wait for a slow discussion!"

"Maybe while we are discussing, Chang'anjun has already arrived in Lu......"

Speaking of this, Li Si's eyes suddenly widened: "Calculate the distance, if Chang'anjun is in a hurry all the way, maybe Chang'anjun has arrived in Lucheng today!" ”

In the imperial study, the ministers were silent.

Probably not!

Ying Chengcheng obviously took the initiative to ask the court what to do next.

He probably won't continue to have fun...... Right?

Ying Zheng's heart turned into a deep worry, and he did not hesitate to break the order: "Feng Shangqing, the intention is to be made." ”

"Immediately summon Chang'an Jun about the lack of officials."

"Don't delay for a moment!"
