Chapter 707 The City of King Yingzheng's Circle of People

"Actually! You can also use people you can't trust yet! Peng Zhou came up with an idea.

"Oh?" King Yingzheng of Qin was very interested and responded.

"You feel like this person can be trusted, of course! This is the first feeling. You reuse him! Let's use it first. But! There is a premise! ”

"Prerequisites?" King Yingzheng of Qin asked puzzled.

"You first give him official authority and entrust him with heavy responsibilities. And then! His family is detained in Xianyang City and detained by your side for likes or for various reasons. What do you understand? Proton! Do you understand? Your father was sent to Zhao Guo as a proton back then, wasn't he? You were still born in the country of Zhao, weren't you? ”

"This?" Qin Wang Yingzheng listened to it and felt something.

"But!" Peng Zhou continued to come up with ideas: "This is too direct, although people will still do things for you, they are afraid. Or! It was reluctant, but it turned out to be reluctant. ”

"This? What to do? Grandfather? ”

"So! You will build new cities. ”

"Build a new city?"

"Or! Expand Xianyang City again! Only by expanding the territory can you trap these people. Circle them and their families around you, and if they turn against you, you can take down their family immediately. ”

"This?"

"Just think? What are they mixed with? They have no children, what are they against? By the time they marry another wife and have children, they will be old. Or! They were killed by you before they had a successful career, and they were still a mess? ”

"This?" When Qin Wang Yingzheng heard this, he couldn't stop nodding his head, feeling that it made sense.

Oh, yes! Why did others rebel? Not for future generations? You encircle their descendants around you, and once you find out that they have the possibility of rebellion, kill their descendants first, and they will rebel?

The point is: how can you coax their family members to Xianyang and to your side?

Tie people with soft ropes, and others will not know.

You are good with others on the surface, but in fact, you are on guard in your heart. While calling other people's family members to be close, they are handing over important tasks to others. If others don't do their best, then! He will be afraid. If others have antipathy, they will not dare to rebel when they find that their family members are still by King Qin's side.

Under the reminder of his grandfather Peng Zhou, Qin Wang Yingzheng knew what to expect.

Oh, yes! With this strategy, who else wouldn't dare to use it?

"But!" Peng Zhou was afraid that his nephew Qin Wang Yingzheng would have a crooked understanding, so he had to remind again: "This is just an expedient measure, just a temporary way to employ people." If you want to employ people for a long time, you have to be cautious and use real talents. Without real talents and loyal ministers, you can only circle people temporarily. When someone else finds out what you mean, it doesn't work! ”

"I know this! Grandfather! Thank you grandpa! ”

"And what are you going to do?"

"Build the city first! Build a new city! ”

"New Town? How many new cities to build? ”

"Infinite, infinite!" King Yingzheng of Qin said and laughed. Meantime! He also gestured his hands: the new city is so big.

"Hmm!" Peng Zhou nodded and said: "Then we should consider the comprehensive national strength, and don't consume the national strength in order to build a new city." ”

"I know this! Take it easy! I didn't build a new city all at once, I planned a place first. And then! Move the people out there. And then! Build the city little by little! I! As the king of Qin, who rules the world, can he still live in Xianyang? I have to have a new city! Grandfather! Isn't it? Meritorious kings in the past generations, didn't they generally build new cities? ”

"This?" Peng Zhou nodded.

"My nephew also learned the method of the previous king, planned the new city first, and built my palace and other official offices first. And then! Then the land was planned to the nobles and let them build their own mansions. And then! Then plan out commercial streets, sell land to businessmen, and let them choose to build houses......"

King Yingzheng of Qin means: after the new city is built, all the offices of the Qin State will be relocated to the new city. Get Xianyang City out of the way, and then! Reward those who are temporarily appointed, and enclose their families in Xianyang. Once these people make a rebellion, they will immediately seal off Xianyang City and attack the families of these troublemakers.

On the side of the new city, because of the huge project, it was not possible to completely build the city for a while.

King Yingzheng's idea was: build a city according to the situation. It's not the kind of fortification that used to build walls.

I'll plan out a place first, I don't need to build a city. Mountains, rivers, ravines and other natural hazards are my city walls.

What's the use of building a wall? If people trap you inside, you're dead.

The key to defending your city is to keep no one else from coming to your city.

I have built a bigger city, and there are natural dangers everywhere, and the enemy has fewer men and horses, and they will not be able to come to my city at all. The enemy has more soldiers and horses, so we will draw men and horses from the surrounding area to intercept them.

And also! There are mountains and rivers in my city, and I can use this to intercept them.

To use a simple analogy: I dig a moat around the city, and there is a passage into the city, and no matter how many people you come, you can't cross the river. And then! My perimeter defense forces have you blocked somewhere.

King Yingzheng of Qin means: My city is a big city, not a small city.

A big city is like a country, don't build a national border wall, just hold the pass. Even if you break through the barrier, I can still contain you elsewhere.

Only small cities should be built with walls.

And Qin Wang Yingzheng means: My palace and various offices are walled. Isn't a wall just a small wall? So! There is no need to build additional walls for large cities.

The key question is: have you chosen the address of the city?

If you choose the right address, as long as you have a team of soldiers and horses guarding the pass, other people's armies will not be able to pass.

The territory of Qin is so big, if the enemy's large army attacks your capital, no matter how strong the city wall is, you will not be able to stop it.

It's really that kind of situation, which means that your country has fallen.

"Grandpa! I? Hey! I want to put Jiuding out! I think? It's time! ”

After talking about building a new city, King Yingzheng of Qin looked at Peng Zhou and said with a smile.

"Jiuding?" Peng Zhou was taken aback.

"It's Jiuding that my grandfather helped me move back from Luoyi! Ahem, ahem! King Qin Yingzheng said with a smile.

"Do you remember Jiuding?"

"Of course I remember! Grandfather! I remember it early, I remember it all! I've heard! No one can lift Jiuding, grandfather is the first person, and grandfather is the second person. Others! It's just that I can hold Jiuding up, but I can't lift it! ……”。

"Hehehe!" Seeing the adoring appearance of his nephew Qin Wang Yingzheng, Peng Zhou couldn't help laughing.

Thinking about the majesty of those years, he is still very proud.
