Sensing Qin Wangzheng's glance, Xianyang Chief Shi Li Si bowed and saluted, and then faced Zheng Guo, who was also looking over, and said slowly while shaking his head, slightly disapproving of the development of water conservancy.
Of course, if it were an ordinary time to dig a new canal and irrigate more than half of the Zhengguo canal, it would benefit the country and the people. Naturally, it would be strongly recommended, but this is definitely not the case.
"Oh, the timing is wrong. What Chang Shi and Datian Ling said are they worried that digging a new canal will affect the future direction of Great Qin's national policy?"
For several years since Guan Li took charge personally, the Qin king's government had been freed from all constraints. For several years, he had been working day and night to rectify the state affairs. At the moment when Zheng Guo and Li Si spoke, it was what Ming and Wu said.
However, after thinking about it for a while, he still asked the question. Although it would have an impact on the general situation of the world when leaving Hangu in the east, the benefits would be greater than the impact.
According to Wei Liao's plan, even if everything goes smoothly, it will take at least seven years, and as many as more than ten years, to defeat the six Shandong countries one by one. In such a long time, it shouldn't be a problem to devote some energy to a new canal.
On the contrary, when the new canal is built, the Qin State will have a richer foundation, which will provide a more solid force for the Qin State to move eastward, giving the Qin State a more overwhelming power.
After saying this, the rest of the people standing quietly on the side also looked at Zheng Guo and Li Si. With the current national power of Qin State, it is definitely not a problem to dig a new canal. After all, compared with the six countries of Shandong, Qin State can mobilize more power
Very huge.
"I am Wang Mingjian."
"In the past, I and Datian Ling were respectively the Prime Minister of Hequ and the Ling of Hequ. They knew very well about the construction of canals. It was just that in order to open the Zhengguo Canal, Datian Ling had been preparing for five or six years."
"If the king had not come to the canal in person and fought hard at the entrance, I am afraid that the canal would have been delayed for another year or two. At that time, nearly two million people were mobilized, and with the support of the Qin State treasury, the Zhengguo Canal was what it is today."
Zheng Guo Canal was the capital of Li Si and Zheng Guo's promotion, and from this, they entered the center of the Qin court. It is precisely because of this that Li Si and Zheng Guo had the most real understanding of building canals.
In the eyes of others, perhaps, building the canal is very simple and only requires mobilizing manpower and material resources. But who knows the preparations before building the canal and the many complicated things that go into the process of building the canal.
The only thing that has a problem is that it involves many things. Therefore, without Jingli who stayed on the river channel for those years, Chang Shi would not be able to get started so easily. He sighed softly and continued.
"If, as the Datian Order said, we can dig a canal that covers more than half of the Zheng Guo Canal, then how will our king plan to allocate the people's power? If it is completed quickly, it will take three to five years and more than 500,000 people."
"Within three to five years, according to the Guowei's plan, they will march eastward. During this period, the two camps outside the pass and the Lantian camp combined have a lineup of more than 5.6 million, and the civilian strength has exceeded 1.2 million.
, at the same time, the barbarians in the north have committed many crimes recently, which also requires people's strength, and the defense of Chu in the south also requires a lot of strength."
"Based on this calculation, just leaving Hangu in the east requires all the strength of the entire Qin State. At this time, if a considerable part of the force is allocated to dig canals and weaken the strength of the Qin State in the east, what do I think?"
Regarding the current national strength of the Qin State, Li Si, who has served as the governor for more than two years, definitely has the right to say, and Zheng Guo, who is in the Datian Order and is in charge of agricultural affairs and important economic matters, definitely knows a lot.
Coupled with the two people's experience in building canals, it was definitely not the right time to dig a new canal at this time. Originally, it was very difficult for the Qin State to fight against the six Shandong states as one country. It had to devote all its strength, otherwise it might be possible at some point. Just lack those powers.
After the steady voice fell, the former general Meng Tian and the new imperial envoy Zhang Cangjun of Xianyang nodded instinctively. To monopolize the six countries, we must do our best and cannot be distracted. If we are digging canals, we will definitely not do it.
I thought it was a very simple thing, but I never thought that it would require such preparation and savings according to the long history. No wonder, when the Zheng Guo Canal was built a few years ago, the whole country went to war. No wonder, for hundreds of years, Throughout the summer, large rivers and canals are rare.
"It's a pity that the plan to go east has already been decided."
"My heart is to conquer the Six Kingdoms of Shandong with absolute power. Since both Chang Shi and Da Tian Ling have said this, Ying Zheng has something in his heart. He will wait until Da Qin has dealt with the Six Kingdoms of Shandong before digging a new canal. "
"At the beginning, relying on the thousands of miles of fertile fields in Shu County, the late King Zhaoxiang had the confidence to go eastward and expand the territory thousands of miles to subdue the three Jins and resist the strong Chu in the south. Now, with the Zhengguo Canal here, when the six Shandong kingdoms are weak, I am confident that I can conquer them. Destroy them one by one!"
Qin's laws have been enforced throughout the world. For more than a hundred years, wise kings have appeared in large numbers. Since Xiaogong, its territory has expanded nearly three times. At that time, a mere Wei State could oppress Qin for a hundred years, but now Qin's power alone is enough to dominate the Xia.
Compared with a brand-new water canal, the general trend of the world is more important. The choice is even more obvious. Qin Wangzheng also sighed and looked at the silent Zheng Guo Canal not far away. On the right side of his body, he looked eastward at the six countries. View the mountains and rivers.
With clear words and perseverance, the ancestors have laid such a foundation for themselves, which is in line with their unification, sweeping away all the Xia, and establishing a grand event that spans three generations.
"Meng Tian will definitely lead the Qin cavalry to crush the six Shandong kingdoms one by one, and plant the Qin flag on all the cities of the six Shandong kingdoms to help our king complete his great cause."
Meng Tian, the former general of the Lantian Camp, was shaken by his heroic spirit. Since the death of his grandfather Meng Ao, the Qin State had not waged large-scale wars against the six Shandong countries. The Meng family started their career with military exploits.
As the eldest grandson of the Meng family, he should take on this great responsibility and inherit his grandfather's legacy. Back then, his grandfather helped King Zhaoxiang to leave Hangu. Now, he will also help King Qin to achieve great success.
Imagine the war, wearing pitch black armor, clasping your fists and saying deeply.
"Qin is strong in the east and weak in the east. This is the right time. It sits on the dangerous pass of Hangu and strangles the important areas of the Three Jin Dynasties. This is the geographical advantage. Since the Spring and Autumn Period, wars have occurred frequently. The desire for unity has arisen. This is the harmony of the country. According to the plan of the state captain , and with the support of Qin’s cavalry and the support of a sufficient treasury, a world is just around the corner!”
Chief Shi Li Si also bowed his head in response, strategizing the world was based on one word of strategy. Over the past few years, the world's major policies have been decided and are becoming more and more perfect. As long as the plan is followed step by step, the unification of all Xia can be expected.
The order of Datian, Zheng Guo, the imperial envoy Zhang Cang, the Shaofu order Zhao Gao and others all echoed the message.
"Hahaha, the weather, the right location, and the people are all in the Qin State. Among the three, I value the people and the people the most. The prosperity of the Qin State lies in talents. A few months ago, Wu Zhenjun traveled among the Xia, and he did not forget to consolidate for the Qin Dynasty. Talent."
"Chang Shi, your master Xun Kuang is really good. The disciples you teach are all different. Your talent is good at practicality and strategizing about national affairs. Han Fei is good at strategizing the world. Zhang Cang is good at erudition and economics. "
"Lu Jia's talents are good at lobbying and walking around. The other Confucian disciples are also good. They all know the Qin law, and they are both legalists and Confucianists. They all agree with the people. Wu Zhenjun knows that there are many people."
In the past, the six kingdoms of Shandong also had both the right time and the right location. However, over the past hundred years, the Qin State had gradually become stronger and relied more on talents. The power of talented people was enough to make up for the first two.
The king's brother traveled around the Xia and recommended ten Zhang Cang people for himself. He was very satisfied. Although none of them were rare talents like Han Fei and Li Si, they could all be the pillars of the Qin Dynasty. If he took a step forward, he could receive important positions. If he took a step back, he could
Stabilize the situation.
"Master has learned from hundreds of schools of thought, and what he has learned and thought is very different from Confucianism Confucius, and very different from Confucianism Meng Ke. His talent has served as the chief minister of Jixia Academy three times, and his discussion is overwhelming to hundreds of schools. This is the study of the master.
"
"Our disciples have failed in their studies because of their aptitude. Therefore, each one is different. However, a few months ago, Wu Zhenjun argued in Jixia Academy and defeated hundreds of schools. Even the head of Confucianism, Gong Duzi, was defeated. It can be seen that
, Lord Wu Zhen’s talent and knowledge are also extraordinary, and he is truly a blessing to the Qin Dynasty!”
When Xun Kuang was mentioned, Chief Shi Li Si and Yu Shi Zhang Cang looked at each other. After all, they were two masters. When the King of Qin finished his political speech, Li Si took a step forward without saying much. He gave a little praise, then changed the topic and said
On Wu Zhenjun’s body.
It can be heard from the meaning of the king's words just now that the king admires Wu Zhenjun very much. Although Wu Zhenjun has been away from Xianyang for two years, his favor has not diminished, which is rare.
"Hahaha, Mr. Wu Zhen is naturally very talented. Just now, when we walked all the way from Xianyang, there seemed to be an earthen close-fitting gate every other mile. Although it was used as a toilet, it seems that in recent years,
It has spread throughout Guanzhong."
"Although they are filthy things, they add a lot of fertile land to the fertile land. There are also waterwheels and wheelbarrows, which may seem small, but they travel all over Guanzhong and pass through all summers. The number of acres of fertile farmland does not increase, but the yield increases, and so
It’s for great merit.”
"However, Mr. Wu Zhen traveled through all the Xia and saw the splendor of the country. It seems that he encountered a lot of trouble in Linzi, Qi State. Even the wandering warriors dare to target me, the Great Qin Emperor, Zhao Gao. Could it be that the traps under your hands are all deaf?
You are a blind man, do you still need someone to intervene in such a matter?"
The late king passed away, leaving very few heirs. The reason why Wen Xinhou's trip was not a coincidence for Wang Di, otherwise he would be a real loner today. Wang Di was born in the Taoist Heavenly Sect. He was otherworldly and indifferent to the power of the world. However,
It just so happened that he had great talents and often came up with brilliant ideas.
Wouldn't the King of Qin be happy about this? A month ago, Zhang Cang and others went to Xingle Palace in Xianyang. After chatting, they learned about this and couldn't help but feel extremely angry. Although Lord Wu Zhen was fine, the group of knights and monks really ignored the Qin Dynasty.
majesty.
Feeling this, the slightly joyful expression frowned, and looked at the Shaofu Ling Zhao Gao not far away. Wen Xin was about to die. The snare under his command was temporarily under the control of his prime minister, but in fact it was perfected in the hands of Zhao Gao.
Over the past few years, the Luo Sheng operation has not been outstanding, but it has also consumed a lot of internal treasury. If not for the Luo Shen, there were some espionage operations, which had some effect, so they have been abolished long ago.
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
"In fact, Wu Zhenjun also sent a message to Luo Wen through Mr. Dunruo, and asked Luo Wen to hunt down the Mo family who besieged Linzi, as well as several other rangers. However, the Mo family was hiding in Chu State, and the other rangers were not weak. Therefore,
I have never succeeded."
"Please give your Majesty some time to set up a trap. Zhao Gao will definitely get the heads of those people and live up to your King's expectations and live up to Lord Wu Zhen's words!"
