Looking at the increasingly prosperous flames, the eyes of the Huns flashed, everyone's faces were filled with joy, and they raised their throats and shouted: "Burn to death the hateful Qin Dog!"

"The Qin army is abominable. We will kill the Great Huns warriors! Qin dog, you also taste the taste of death!"

"Burn and burn Qin Gou to death!"

The Huns roared the mountains, and the torch could not help but throw them into the grease. In just a moment, there were fire heads everywhere, I don’t know how many, it was spectacular. After a while, the fire heads rose up, burning trees, and the flames soared into the sky, reflecting the red half of the sky.

"Sizzle!" Countless trees were swallowed by the flames, making a sizzling sound, the fire became more and more prosperous, and the entire foot of the mountain was on fire.

A gust of wind blew, and the fire became stronger and rushed towards the mountain.

"Haha!" Shanyu looked at the fire head that was quickly leaping up the mountain, and was extremely proud, raised his head to the sky, bursting out with a burst of laughter.

"Haha!" The Hun ministers also laughed loudly, and were extremely happy.

“Utra!”

“Utra!”

The Huns were happy Mo Ming, dancing and cheering loudly, and the sound of long live sounded across the sky.

Qin Yiren and Li Mu, Huang Shigong, Li Si, Han Fei and others discussed military operations in the central army's tent.

"Young Master, when do you plan to end this battle?" Li Si's eyes shone with a wise light, and he asked, looking at Qin Yiren.

"Li Si, when do you think it's better to end?" Qin Yiren did not answer, but responded.

Qin Yiren wants to test Li Si to see what he has.

"Young Master, I think there is no need to kill all the Huns in this battle. It only needs to scare the Huns' courage to end." Li Si obviously thought carefully and said calmly.

"Why did you say this?" Qin Yiren asked.

"Young Master, what is the most in short supply in the warring battles in the Warring States Period? It is not gold, silver and jewelry, not food and grass, but human power!" Li Si analyzed loudly and said: "In the war, the people are suffering from the Warring States Period, and the suffering is unspeakable. The war is endless. The princes are fighting, and many people die in the battle formation, many people are displaced, and many people die in hunger... Therefore, human power is the most in short supply."

During the Warring States Period, when did not fight? I don’t know how many people died in the battle formation.

Which month and day are there no displaced people? I don’t know how many people die from hunger and cold.

Man is the foundation of all things. As long as there is man, everything will be found. Therefore, in the warring times, the most precious thing is not gold, silver and jewelry, nor food and grass, but people!

Li Si's words were at the critical point, and Qin Yiren emphasized the key points and praised them very much.

Li Mu and Huang Shigong also nodded slightly, with admiration on their faces.

"In my opinion, as long as the Huns are scared out of their courage, the Huns will not dare to rebel again. Capture some captives of the Huns and let them be hard laborers." Li Si then analyzed: "If nothing else, the Huns' horse raising skills are unparalleled in the world. If they can be used by the Great Qin, why worry about not having any horses?"

The Huns are nomadic peoples. If they are used to grow crops, it is impossible. The Huns will definitely feel very painful. If they use the Huns to shepherd war horses, they will use it as they are used. The Huns will definitely shepherd the war horses to be fat and strong. If there were tens of thousands of Huns who could raise war horses for Qin, why would Qin worry about not having war horses?

"Okay! Pick!" As soon as Li Si finished speaking, a cheerful sound came out.

"Pa!" Qin Yiren even slashed with his hands, exclaiming: "What Li Si said is exactly what I thought. The Huns are certainly hateful, but the Huns are also valuable. The Huns are of great use. Not to mention anything else, if the Huns use them to raise horses, the Qin Dynasty will definitely have countless horses, and the Qin army will be faster and come and go like the wind."

One of the most important strategic resources in the era of cold weapons, war horses, is not necessary to mention the importance of a country and nation. Just look at the powerful dynasties in Chinese history, such as the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty.

The reason why the Han and Tang dynasties were strong and the reason why the army of the Han and Tang dynasties was able to roam the desert, the Han dynasty defeated the Huns and the Tang dynasty destroyed the Turks was that these two dynasties had many war horses.

As we all know, Emperor Wu of Han formed a large number of cavalry. Under the leadership of genius commanders such as Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, the Han Dynasty roamed the desert and defeated the powerful Huns. The reason was that the Han Dynasty implemented the "horse politics" and achieved great success, with a large number of war horses.

Otherwise, even with the general principles of Emperor Wu of Han, it would be impossible to reform the Han Dynasty military system and form a large-scale cavalry.

The Tang Dynasty far surpassed the Han Dynasty in this regard. When the Tang Dynasty was at its peak, the number of war horses controlled by the government alone was as high as 700,000. This was only controlled by the government, and the horses controlled by the people were not included. It is precisely because of the large number of war horses that the Tang army almost had a war horse, and even infantry could have war horses for transportation. The Tang army had particularly strong mobility.

The successful implementation of "horse politics" made the Han and Tang dynasties not less war horses than nomadic peoples. It is precisely because of this that the Han and Tang dynasties were so brilliant.

It can be said that China's strength is based on horseback!

If the success of the Han and Tang dynasties was a "positive textbook", then the failure of the Song Dynasty was a "negative textbook". To be honest, the economic strength of the Song Dynasty was the first among the medieval dynasties, far surpassing the fantastic Tang Dynasty, and it was the first dynasty in Chinese history with a population of over 100 million. However, the Song Dynasty had no military achievements, and its strong economic strength was not transformed into strong military strength, and its reasons were for many aspects.

One of the reasons is well known, that is, the Song Dynasty lacks horses and is seriously short of horses. In order to change this situation, the Song Dynasty invested a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to promote the "horse politics", but it was because corruption was born and it was not successful. There were twelve horse farms on Hebei Road, and only 2,400 available war horses a year were available. This is obviously impossible, and corruption is too serious.

It is precisely because the Song Dynasty did not have a large number of war horses that when they encountered the Khitan, Jurchen and Mongol cavalry, they could only be beaten.

In the end, the Song Dynasty became the first dynasty in Chinese history to perish from a foreign race!

From this we can see that the importance of war horses to a country and a nation is very clever. Li Si’s proposal to use the Huns to shepherd war horses is a very clever view, and no matter how much praise it is, it is not an exaggeration.

"If the young master thinks so, he needs an excellent pasture. The land of Hetao is fertile and beautiful, and the sky is blue and grass is green. It is an excellent pasture." Han Fei took over the conversation, perhaps because of his excitement, his stuttering improved a lot, and his speech was very coherent, which was extremely rare.

"That's right! The land of Hetao is the best ranch!" As soon as Han Fei finished speaking, everyone praised him again.

"Young Master, in my opinion, not only do you want to... raising war horses in Hetao, but you also want to build a city in Hetao." Han Fei's old stuttering habit was really speechless. Just now, he was stuttering again.

"Build a city?" Qin Yiren raised his eyebrows and stared at Han Fei and asked, "Why do you want to build a city?"

Huang Shigong and his friends' eyes flashed, and they looked at Han Fei.

"Young Master, there are two wonderful uses for building a city." Han Fei stuttered and said, "One is that if there is a city, you can have a support... and the other is that if there is a city, you can control the Huns... so that the Huns dare not... not obey orders."

"Okay! Cai!" As soon as Han Fei finished speaking, another cheerful sound came out.

There is no need to mention the importance of building a city in Hetao. It has two functions: First, only by having a city can you have a support, you can accumulate weapons, food and grass here, shepherd war horses, and prepare for invading the northern part of Mobei; second, only by having a city can you control the land of Hetao. If you can't even control the land of Hetao, the land of Hetao cannot become a strategic springboard.

Historically, after Qin Shihuang ordered Meng Tian to recapture the Hetao land, he built a city here, in order to build the Hetao land into a strategic base for attacking the northern part of the desert and controlling the desert. Unfortunately, Qin Shihuang died too early and the Qin Dynasty was destroyed soon. This plan eventually went bankrupt and could not continue.

It was not until the reign of Emperor Wu of Han that after Wei Qing recovered the Hetao land, Emperor Wu of Han adopted the suggestion of Zhufu Yan and built a city in the Hetao land. At that time, Prime Minister Gongsun Hong opposed it, and Zhufu Yan had a difficult debate with him. He asked ten questions in a row, but Gongsun Hong was speechless. It was precisely because the "Shuofang" city was built in the Hetao land that the Han Dynasty had a base in the desert, and prepared conditions for later crossing the desert and attacking the north of the desert, which led to the legend of "Shanyu escape at night" and "Fenglangjuxu".

Han Fei is worthy of being a genius and has seen the importance of building a city early on, and it is not an exaggeration to praise him no matter how he is.

"In history, Han Fei died in vain. This time, I cannot let Han Fei die again no matter what. I must let him devote himself to serving the Qin Dynasty!" Qin Yiren secretly warned himself in his heart.

"Yeah." Suddenly, the Huns cheered from the foot of the mountain.

"What happened?" Qin Yiren raised his eyebrows and asked loudly.

"Young Master, the big thing is not good, the Huns set fire to the mountain." Meng Zhao walked quickly and reported to Qin Yiren from afar.

"Burning the mountain? Not good!" Huangshi Gong, Li Mu and the others jumped up and rushed out as if flying.

Qin Yiren also rushed out and came to the top of the mountain to take a look. He saw flames soaring into the sky at the foot of the mountain and the fire was rising.

"Young Master, order quickly and the whole army will attack!" Li Mu shouted loudly.

"Yes, young master." Huangshi Gong and the others agreed in unison.

Water and fire are ruthless, and the fire has already been formed. Once it is burned, the Qin army's camp will definitely not be spared. Instead of being escaped by the Huns, if you do not attack decisively at this time, you can kill as much as possible.

"It's okay." Qin Yiren saw it, but he didn't take it seriously.

"It's okay?" Huang Shigong was so anxious that he burst into cold sweat on his forehead. He shouted: "Young Master, the fire is ruthless. The fire has become and cannot be controlled. As long as it is burned up, the camp will definitely not be spared. Without the camp, the Huns will escape, and it is difficult to stop it. Why not take advantage of the time when the fire starts, the whole army will attack and kill a lot."

"Yes." Li Mu and the others agreed in unison.

"Will you just set a fire and burn a mountain? Can this stump me?" Qin Yiren was not in a hurry at all.

Is this a boast? Although Huangshi Gong and the others trusted Qin Yiren very much, they no longer believed them at this time.

"Transfer to cut down all the trees in front of the camp. Well, it will be done if it is cut out for about ten miles." A glimmer of light flashed in Qin Yiren's eyes.

Isn’t it just a forest fire prevention? If this could stump Qin Yiren, would he be worthy of being a modern person?
