Chapter 49 Save? Not Save? (Part 1)

This question is really difficult. It kept everyone from asking, but they all opened their mouths and didn’t know where to start?

If you save yourself, you will miss the opportunity to advance eastward in a large scale. How can you be willing to be willing? You must know how rare the opportunity to wipe out the nations and unify China? This is the best opportunity in hundreds of years. Who will be willing to give up?

If you do not save it, you can wipe out the nations, unify China, and achieve great achievements. However, this will throw the north to the Huns, which will cause endless disasters. This will plant disasters for future generations, and will be cursed by future generations, and will become sinners throughout the ages. This is also unbearable.

Bai Qi opened his mouth so hard that he wanted to speak, but he couldn't say it. Bai Qi often made a decision on military affairs, but this time he didn't know where to start, which was extremely rare in his life.

Seeing Bai Qi like this, King Zhao of Qin sank his heart, staring at Fan Sui, and asked, "Prime Minister, do you have a clever plan?"

After Fan Sui entered Qin, several major things he did were praised, his talents were admirable, and everyone was very confident in him, and his eyes were focused on him, all full of hope.

King Zhao of Qin leaned forward even more, and his eager anticipation was revealed.

"I have been thinking hard for a long time, but I have not had the same way." Fan Sui shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Ah." Even a wise man like Fan Sui was helpless, and everyone's hearts sank and sighed.

"According to me, whether it is the Huns or not, we just need to move eastward. As long as we wipe out the six kingdoms, unify China, and then turn around and fight the Huns." Ying Ying raised his throat and shouted: "As long as China is unified, China's strength will increase greatly. Don't mention the mere Huns, even if we include Donghu, Linhu, Loufan, and Baiyue are not rivals to China!"

Although this is a bit reckless, it makes sense. As long as the Central Plains are unified, China's strength will increase drastically, and the Xiongnu, Baiyue, and Donghu are not opponents. This has been proven during the reign of Qin Shihuang.

After Qin Shihuang wiped out the six kingdoms, the Qin army's conquest was not over. With the order of Qin Shihuang, 500,000 Qin troops crossed the Five Ridges and entered the Baiyue land, and merged the current places occupied by the Yue people, including Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan Island, Vietnam and eastern Zhejiang, into the territory, which expanded China's territory by nearly one-third. Then, he ordered Meng Tian to attack the Xiongnu, won a great victory, and recovered the Hetao land.

When Wang Ben pursued King Xi of Yan, the Qin army appeared in Liaodong, and Donghu fled far away and did not dare to repel the Qin army's edge.

"It's reasonable!" Huan Qi first agreed and said, "This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity must not be missed. We must destroy the nations and unify China. As long as China is powerful, how can we make up just the Huns?"

Meng Ao's eyes flashed with a flash of light, and he nodded slightly. It seemed that he agreed with this.

"What do the Prime Minister thinks this is going to do?" King Zhao of Qin hurriedly asked Fan Sui.

"Your Majesty, although the third prince's words are reasonable, they seem to be inappropriate." Fan Sui shook his head and said, "The time is too short, and I have not thought about it carefully."

Such a big thing, even with Fan Sui's talent, it is impossible to think too well in a short period of time. He needs time.

"Where is the general?" King Zhao of Qin turned his head and asked.

"Your Majesty, from the perspective of military strategy, it seems feasible." Bai Qi promoted first and then suppressed, saying: "However, military strategy often needs to be viewed from the perspective of political strategy. As for political strategy, this is not the strength of the minister."

Military strategy mainly refers to military views. Political strategy can be understood as political vision, which is indeed not what Bai Qi is good at. However, Bai Qi's words are very shocking, which is quite similar to Clausewitz's "war is another kind of continuation of politics."

"After all the time, there is still no proper solution?" King Zhao of Qin spread his hands and felt a little distressed.

"Your Majesty, how can you decide such a big thing in one sentence?" Sima Geng hurriedly reminded, saying, "Looking at the history of China, there is no such difficult thing to decide."

This is very reasonable and very reasonable.

Throughout the entire Chinese history, there has never been such a situation where crises and opportunities coexist. The great opportunity for Qin to unify China appeared. At the same time, the biggest threat in China's history appeared, and no one can figure it out in a short period of time.

"I don't understand. But, this cannot be delayed, and it must be decided in a short time." King Zhao of Qin was helpless and said, "The fighter opportunity was fleeting, but the matter of advancing east could be slowed down for ten or half a month. However, the Huns could not delay the transition south. After ten days of fighting, the Huns might have occupied the Hetao territory."

"Your Majesty is the wise." Bai Qi nodded in praise.

King Zhao of Qin's words make sense. Advancing east can last for a period of time, ten days and half a month, or even one month. The problem is that the Huns are about to move south, and if Qin reacts slowly, they will miss the opportunity.

After sweeping everyone, everyone frowns tightly. There was obviously no way. King Zhao of Qin's heart sank. When his eyes stopped on Qin Yiren, Qin Yiren frowned, his eyes were flickering with light flashing. He was thinking, and he asked, "Yiren, do you have a clever plan?"

"..." Qin Yiren was like a wooden stake, without reaction.

"This... Yi Ren, do you have a clever plan?" King Zhao of Qin's voice turned higher.

"Ah!" Qin Yiren was awakened and said, "Big Father, what did you say?"

"You are so brave. My father asked you, but you dare to take it as a warning." Ying Ying finally seized such a good opportunity, and of course he would not miss it. He shouted in a deep voice, saying, "Father, such a person who is so arrogant and lord is guilty!"

"Okay." King Zhao of Qin's face sank, glared at Ying Ying, and said, "Yiren, have you thought of a way?"

The flattery hit the horse's leg, and he was quite unhappy in winning the fun, but he didn't dare to say anything more.

"Big Father, it is not difficult to decide whether to save or not." Qin Yiren nodded and said in a shocking way.

"Isn't it difficult?" A scream of exclamation sounded?

Which of Qin Zhao King, Fan Sui, Bai Qi, Sima Geng are mediocre people? They are all extremely talented and intelligent, and they only think that this matter is extremely difficult and cannot be understood in a short period of time. Qin Yiren actually said that this matter is not difficult to decide. They were really a little unbelievable. They thought they had heard it wrong, and they all stared at Qin Yiren with wide eyes and stared at Qin Yiren.

"Just brag! Let's see how you end up!" Ying Ying heard it in his ears and joy in his heart. Finally, he could read Qin Yiren's joke.

"That's right, it's not difficult." Qin Yiren seemed to have not seen everyone's strange eyes, and he focused his attention.

"Yiren, what do you think you will do?" King Zhao of Qin leaned forward, very anxious.

He thought to himself that Qin Yiren hadn't disappointed him yet, maybe there was a way.

Some people think so, including Fan Sui, Bai Qi, Sima Geng, Meng Ao, and others, all of whom were staring at Qin Yiren with wide eyes, without letting go of any details.

"The key points are the words "profits and harms"." Qin Yiren said slowly: "We only need to start from these two words and figure out whether it is a great benefit to save or a great benefit to not save, and then we can make a decision."

"Pros and disadvantages?" Fan Sui's eyes burst into light, he slapped his hands and praised, "Okay! Well said!" He slapped his forehead and looked a little surprised.

"Yes." King Zhao of Qin also suddenly realized and said with a smile: "Save or not to save is a weighing of the interests. If the benefits are great, then save them; if the benefits are not saved, then save them."

"Young Master, do you think you can save it, or you can't save it?" Sima Geng asked hurriedly, his neck stretched out, very anxious.

King Zhao of Qin, Bai Qi, Fan Sui and others are all like this.

"Dafather, have you written about mountains and rivers?" Qin Yiren did not answer immediately, but asked back.

"Writing to put mountains and rivers? What do you want to do?" King Zhao of Qin was a little puzzled and said, "The largest and most complete writing to put mountains and rivers is in Kitanaka. There is a small one in the palace, which is enough."

"Okay, let's go and write about the mountains and rivers, and it will be more vivid." Qin Yiren said.

"Okay. Let's go." King Zhao of Qin wanted to know Qin Yiren's thoughts, but he had to bear it and led everyone out of the study room and came to a palace on the left.

The palace covers a large area and is guarded by the Iron Eagle Sharpmen, guarding it like an iron barrel. Under the leadership of King Zhao of Qin, a group of people entered the palace. When Qin Yiren looked at it, they saw a big sand table, and the geography and mountains of China could be seen.

When he came to the mountains and rivers, Qin Yiren glanced at everyone and said, "No matter whether the Huns are concerned, continue to advance eastward, we can certainly wipe out the nations and unify China, but do you know how great the disaster is?"

Everyone knows that if the Huns go south and Qin concentrate their troops to advance east, they will probably be able to get whatever they want and complete the great cause of unification, which means they will plant disasters and will leave endless disasters. The problem is, everyone has not figured out how big the root cause of this disaster is.

"This time the Huns went south, the primary goal was the Hetao land." Qin Yiren picked up a wooden stick and pointed to the Hetao land placed on the mountains and rivers, saying: "You all know the reason why the Huns were determined to occupy the Hetao land. The land of Hetao land is rich and beautiful, with blue sky and green grass. It is a natural pasture that the Huns dream of dreaming of. For this reason, decades ago, 300,000 Huns marched south and were defeated by King Wuling of Zhao. What would the Huns do after the Huns occupied the Hetao land? Wu'an Jun, you have a unique vision, so you should talk about this."

Bai Qi was not polite either. He picked up a wooden stick and pointed it on the Hetao land, saying, "The Huns are punished, and occupying the Hetao land is just the first step to eliminate evil."

He waved the wooden stick in his hand westward, stayed in the land of Longxi, and said, "If the Huns go west, collude with the Qiang, and attack the land of Longxi, this will be a huge threat to the Qin Dynasty."

The wooden stick strides southward and goes south until Guanzhong, stopping in Xianyang, saying: "The Hetao land is less than a thousand miles away from Guanzhong. If it is attacked by cavalry, it will take only three or five days for the Huns to attack Xianyang. This is a huge threat to the Qin Dynasty. Of course, there are many passes of the Qin Dynasty that can stop the Huns' attack, but this threat makes people worried and difficult to let go."

During the reign of Qin Shihuang, Qin Shihuang ordered Meng Tian to attack the Hetao area. There was a huge debate, and the government and the country were shocked. The focus of the debate was whether to fight or not. What benefits could you get if you fight?

Those who advocate not to fight believe that the Hetao land is not as good as the city wall guard, but it is just a barren land and is useless to the Qin Dynasty. The Qin Dynasty does not need to make a big move for this.

It is said that wise people like Li Si are also opposing it. This shows how much pressure there is to oppose the sending of troops.

However, Qin Shihuang could see clearly that the Hetao land poses too great a threat to Guanzhong, and it was under pressure to Guanzhong. This threat must be eliminated. He decisively sent Meng Tian to attack and finally recovered the Hetao land.

This incident reflects Qin Shihuang's foresight and excellence. He should have been praised, but was criticized by countless people. He became a major crime of Qin Shihuang's lack of care for the people's strength and cruelty and incorruptible. It is ridiculous.
