"Abandoning the four counties of Jiaozhou in exchange for Jingzhou is a wonderful strategy, but it has many flaws," Wei Guan said.

Yang Zheng also saw something wrong, "Boyu is talking about the Sima family?"

Wei Guan smiled and said: "Exactly, since Jingzhou is the heart of the world, it has always been a battleground for military strategists. If I send troops, the Sima family will definitely send a large number of troops south to reap the benefits!"

With the power of the Qin State, they fought a battle with Soochow in Jingzhou, with a 50-50 victory.

But if Sima Zhao is watching eagerly from the sidelines, Jingzhou will definitely not be able to take it.

Although this strategy is good, it is a pity that it was not implemented at the right time.

However, this also opened up another idea for Yang Zheng.

There is no need to fight with Sima Zhao in Hedong, Tongguan, and Shangdang. You can open up a southern battlefield and attack from Jingzhou to the heart of the Central Plains.

"The land equalization system has not yet been fully implemented, and the people in Shu are still migrating north. It is inappropriate to send out heavy troops to attack Jingzhou at this time." Yang Zheng suppressed the urge to move in his heart.

A big country should have strategic determination.

Qin is in a period of rising national power and it is not appropriate to launch a war.

Even if Jingzhou is captured, Sima Zhao will press hard in the north and Soochow will counterattack in the east. The gains outweigh the losses.

Jingzhou is a good place, but the time is not yet ripe.

Yang Zheng could only write to Huo Yi again, explaining the situation in the country. The Qin State now is not the same as before, and there is no need to take risks. If Jiaozhou can be defended, it does not matter if it cannot be defended. It does not matter if it abandons the four counties. The main enemy at this stage is still the Sima family.

.

After the implementation of the land equalization system, it was only a matter of time before Qin's national power exploded.

Yang Zheng was also confident of suppressing the Sima family's land occupation system.

"What the king said is true!" Wei Guan said with cupped hands.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Pang Qing said: "General Ma Xun's expedition to the Western Regions was not going well. Wusun, Qiuci and other countries joined forces with Xianbei in the west of the desert to defeat Loulan. King Shejie of Loulan led the remaining soldiers to avoid Haitou City, and the bandit power increased greatly.

We gathered 60,000 people to besiege Haitou City. General Ma Xun and Governor Yin Chun sent 20,000 people to rescue them, but the battle was unfavorable."

Twenty thousand versus sixty thousand is still a long-distance attack, so it is normal for the progress to be unfavorable.

Loulan was defeated so quickly, which of course inspired the wolves in the Western Regions.

The richest place in the Western Regions is undoubtedly the place where Han people live.

Wherever the Han people go, they will govern the place carefully.

In fact, Huaxia has been very gentle towards surrounding ethnic groups. If you consider me your big brother, we can all live together.

When the Qin and Han Dynasties were at their most powerful, they did not exterminate other races or tribes. The most they did was drive them away, then move the captives inward and slowly transform them.

Throughout the world, there are bloody massacres at every turn.

Now Ma Dun and Yin Chun are not making progress, Haitou City has been lost, and the next ones are Gaochang, Dunhuang, and even Hexi...

Don't question their appetite.

Sima Zhao has made it clear that he can attack at will.

"Ma Xun comes from a wealthy family in Gaochang, and Yin Chun is a general in the west. It should not be difficult to defend Gaochang." Wei Guan meant to give up Haitou City.

Haitou City is the seat of the governor of the Western Regions, and has great political significance.

The city fell, and the order in the Western Region collapsed.

There will inevitably be a wave of siege against Da Qin in the Western Regions.

"When the two armies are fighting, confrontation and defeat are inevitable. Ma Xunyuan is tired and our army cannot fully exert its combat power. There is no need to be surprised. There will be good news in the near future!" Yang Zheng has absolute confidence in the elite combat power of the Chinese army.

Ma Xun was also a local wealthy man in Gaochang and was familiar with the situation in the Western Regions. He once used three thousand cavalry to defeat tens of thousands of Xianbei in Gaochang.

Yin Chun can be regarded as both wise and brave.

There shouldn't be much of a problem with the two of them working together.

"Your Majesty is wise." Wei Guan flattered him, and seeing that it was getting late, he took the initiative to leave.

Yang Zheng's poisonous wounds healed, but his body became increasingly weak.

According to the Wei system, the concubine of the king is the village duke, the concubine of the succeeding king is the marquis of Ting, and the concubine of the duke is Tingbo.

After making Yang Xu the crown prince, he also conferred the titles of Yang Yi, Yang Wu and Yang Hong as township princes.

Several members of the harem were also canonized one by one.

He is also passionate about Yang Zheng.

Once a woman becomes attentive, it will be too much for a man to handle.

Yang Zheng thought to himself, no wonder the ancient emperors did not live long.

It's better to be more restrained in this kind of thing. Qin is prospering and the situation is great. If you fall, Qin's great cause will be in vain.

No one else would be able to control the situation.

However, after these two months of sowing, Tuoba Jiarong and Liu Wan were also pregnant.

Jiang Ah Lian gave birth to twin daughters named Yang Jin and Yang Yu.

Peng Qingchan gave birth to a son, named Yang Ke.

While he was immersed in the joy of having a son and daughter, Liu Heng said timidly: "Your Majesty, I have taken another concubine. Let's get together with our former brothers tonight."

After the Junyou field in Longyou was completed, Liu Heng led his troops back to Chang'an, while Zhang Fu and Sun Yang continued to join the army in Guanzhong.

"You're still marrying me?" Yang Zheng was shocked.

I am only six, and this guy is almost a hundred.

There are only three hundred and sixty-five days in a year...are you busy?

Although encouraging childbearing and marriage is one of the national policies of the Qin Dynasty, if someone can marry and have children, then there is no one else in the world, right?

Liu Heng scratched his head and said, "If my subordinates don't marry, why do others want to marry differently?"

"Then you suffered a big loss."

"It is right for my subordinates to suffer some losses for Da Qin." Liu Heng rubbed his nose and rubbed his face.

"How many children you have is your business, but from now on, everyone in your family's property will have a share in your sons."

"Haha, children and grandchildren are the only blessings. How can a subordinate manage such a long term? Those who are capable are not inferior to ministers. Those who are incompetent cannot hold on. It is better to cultivate a field honestly and continue my old Liu.

The blood of the family becomes the family." Liu Heng is extremely open-minded.

This made Yang Zheng look at him with admiration and said with a smile: "Sooner or later, your boy will die on a woman's belly."

Liu Heng also laughed and said: "A man will either die on a woman's belly or die on the battlefield, so why should we be afraid!"

"Okay, okay." Yang Zheng waved his hand, and if he kept blowing, he could reach heaven.

"Your Majesty, tonight..." Liu Heng's eyes were filled with anticipation.

In the past, Yang Zheng would have agreed without even thinking about it.

But now that he is the King of Qin and a monarch, he must maintain a certain distance and a sense of mystery. This is also the way to govern.

Moreover, after the assassination, Yang Zheng became much more vigilant.

There are too many people who want to kill themselves.

"I won't go alone. I'll give you a cart of Pu Tao wine in the treasury." Yang Zheng said lightly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Liu Heng has been messing around for so many years. He is rough on the outside and subtle on the inside. He knows when is enough.

This is also the reason why Yang Zheng favors him so much.

After Liu Heng withdrew, the female official had been waiting outside the palace for a long time.

"Your Majesty, the princess invites you." The young female official blushed and looked pretty and charming.

Xia Houzhi was not so clingy in the past, but ever since he made Yang Xu the crown prince, he has always been attentive to people regardless of anything...

"What's your name?" Yang Zheng didn't want to go.

"Slave Yu Ling..." The female officer lowered her head and her voice sounded like a mosquito, but when she secretly raised her head, her eyes were as charming as silk.

Of course, the maids selected by the Xiahou family all have outstanding looks and elegant manners.

"Yu Ling, please tell the princess that I caught the wind and cold today, so I won't go and rest for two days." Yang Zheng remembered that she was Xia Houzhi's dowry maid, and according to the customs of this era, she was also Yang Zheng's bedmaid...

"yes."

Yang Zheng had a rare day of leisure.
