Chapter 550: Calling the Lonely Widow**

Some believe that the greatness of the First Emperor was based on the unification of China, the unification of an ethnic group under a single regime after hundreds of years of fragmentation.

However, more people feel that the unification of China is only one of the achievements of the first emperor, and the greatness of Yingzheng lies in the fact that after the unification of China, he saw the lack of living space for the ethnic group, even though he knew that Lingnan needed to be developed for several generations to help the national construction, although there was still turmoil in the country, he resolutely sent troops to seek more and more land for the entire ethnic group.

Lingnan was regarded as one of the sacred and inviolable territories of the Chinese ethnic group from the unification of Qin, which no one can deny, and the first emperor just laid the concept that Lingnan was a Chinese territory for future generations, and his achievements were enough to be remembered for eternity.

In history, the same as the first emperor "divided the territory" and the Han Wu Emperor Liu Che, Sui Yang Emperor Yang Guang and other emperors, they are the well-deserved emperors of China, but it is a pity that Yingzheng and Yang Guang are too anxious to do things and underestimate the domestic turmoil, at the same time, these two long-term emperors still lack enough accumulation, only Liu Che, who expanded the Western Regions, can be regarded as successful because of the accumulation of two generations of Wenjing, but the long-term war is also a loss for the people.

It must be noted that the Western Regions Protectorate was not established by Liu Che, he just put forward such a concept, and the Western Regions Protectorate was established by Liu Xun, the descendant of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, in the second year of Shenjue (60 BC), and Zheng Ji was the first protector of the Western Regions.

In order to reward Lu Zhe for expanding the southern territory, the first emperor specially crowned the king, and Lu Zhe was extremely emotional even if he knew that this was just a strategy to appease the Qin state.

Take a closer look and think about it, whether it is a king or a courtier among the nations, who does not only have the Central Plains in their eyes, when they think of the Central Plains, their first thought is whether they can unite which alien race to achieve the goal of exterminating whom, and I don't know if they have ever thought about whether they will lead wolves into the house. They united with foreign races to defeat the Qin State, what do they want to do after that? Will they unite again to beat the aliens out, or will they carve out territory for the aliens to graze?

What Lu Zhe learned from Xiang Liang was that the agreement between the Qi State and the Xiongnu was. Once the Qin State is destroyed, then the Hetao and the range of your three hundred miles will belong to the pastures of the Hu people, for this Zhao State and Yan State have raised objections, but the Qi King Tian Dan used the reason that the strongest Qi State in the Qin Dynasty was "Sacred Heart Arbitrary".

Finally, both Zhao and Yan had fought against the Hu people in the grassland for hundreds of years, and they still raised objections when they knew the threat of the Hu people, but they only opposed it, and did not withdraw from the alliance to attack Qin, and later adopted a tacit attitude towards the agreement between the Qi State and the Xiongnu.

“…… The Hu people are fierce and cruel, and if the Hu people are allowed to steal the land of the Chinese, they will have a springboard to continue south. Qi, Yan, and Zhao were all eyes on the rats, thinking that they could satisfy the greedy Hu people by cutting out the Hetao, but they were very wrong! Meng Yi said it impassionedly, he could see that Lu Zhe had an incomprehensible hostility towards foreign races, so he played the clan card, hoping to impress Lu Zhe.

Incomprehensible hostility? Of course, it is difficult to understand why Lu Zhe has such a deep hostility towards the Hu people. Not only did Lu Zhe's subordinates discover this earlier, but the Qin State was specifically studying Lu Zhe's character, so this time they would take out the national card.

What kind of deep hatred does Lu Zheneng have with Hu Ren and even Manyue, how long has he been "here"? That's three years. Nor is he hostile to all alien races. At least for Baiyue, it is a strategy of both attack and integration. His hostility to the grassland tribe is just a kind of "prophetic" understanding, knowing how much of a threat the grassland Hu people pose to the tribe, how can he not be vigilant?

"The three kingdoms of Qi, Yan, and Zhao entangled the Hu people to go south, once they let the Hu people taste the sweetness. After the Qin annihilation, will the Hu people be satisfied with the benefits they get? They won't be satisfied! Then after occupying the Hetao, it will be the entire Northland, and if you take the Northland, you will stare at the Central Plains......" Meng Yi didn't know that what he said would be verified one by one in the future history, and now talking about these is just adding fuel and vinegar after seeing Lu Zhe's moved.

Kuaitong knew Lu Zhe's temperament very well, and he felt more and more bad when he saw Lu Zhe's face agreeing. He immediately stood up and said, "Mr. Meng, please say what you mean directly." ”

Meng Yi looked at Kuaitong. In the archives of the Qin State, this scribe who was flushed with alcohol was Lü Zhe's left and right arm, and was able to influence Lü Zhe's will in a large way.

Kuaitong is a native of Fanyang, originally from Qi, and was later invited by Lu Zhe to send an elite to Nanjun, which has been and Xiao He was invited back by thousands of miles to spread all over the world.

The Qin State, including the other countries, originally laughed at why Lu Zhe went all the way to kidnap such a thing, isn't it just a person who is slightly famous in Qi but does not have a reputation for being a great talent, and the other is a person who does not even have a reputation in Pei County. But no one laughed out loud in the back, after Kuaitong was appointed as a military advisor, Lu Zhe quickly annihilated the main force of Baiyue, Xiao He's appearance in internal affairs is also obvious to all, who dares to laugh at Lu Zhe's kidnapping and doesn't know how to kidnap famous people, they can only be jealous that Lu Zhe had the foresight to get Kuaitong and Xiao He first.

Kuaitong can affect Lu Zhe's will, and Meng Yi knows very well that if he doesn't answer well and let Kuaitong veto, then the chance of success this time will be infinitely reduced. He pondered for a moment and bowed to Kuaitong: "Mr. Kuai, Your Majesty rewarded Lu Shizhe for being crowned king, which is absolutely not false. He paused and saluted Lu Zhe again: "Your Majesty only rewards you, and there is no reward for your subordinates, which also shows that you have no evil intentions." ”

Seems like that's really the case? The first emperor only rewarded Lu Zhe, and according to the rules of "feudalism", he did not reward his subordinates, which was indeed done authentically, and Kuaitong could only nod and admit it.

"His Majesty rewards Lu Shizhe, and there are no ancillary requirements." Meng Yi did not call Lu Zhe by his name and brought his name, which did not mean rude or derogatory in the current custom, and he was also making language preparations for Lu Zhe to be crowned king. He saluted Lu Zhe and his subordinates in the tent, and finally stood up with his waist pole: "Horses, cattle and sheep and other livestock are here for trading. ”

Oh, it's not for nothing that it is given or given, the Qin State is really clear about what he does.

Lu Zhe guessed what Meng Yi wanted to mention from the beginning, it was nothing more than that the supply line of the Qin army was too long, not only the transportation delay was high, but the consumption on the road was also large, and Lu Zhe's territory was not far from the place of battle, and he wanted to obtain a trade permit from Lu Zhe for grain and even weapons and so on.

Meng Yi was actually hesitant after seeing the power of Lu Zhejun's cavalry, but the high-level leaders of the Qin State all had an advantage that other countries could not match, that is, they had the courage to make decisions about things at the moment, and they could also see things clearly. To be honest, if the battle with the Central Plains coalition army is defeated, what is the use of being afraid of Lu Zhe? If the alliance with Qi, Yan, and Zhao won the battle against the Qin State this time, then naturally there was no need to be afraid of Lu Zhe...... At least the fear will be smaller.

Qin has a large number of horses, and the number of horses in the whole country has always been maintained between 1.8 million and 2 million, and they have calculated the previous trading volume, and the horses imported by Qin into the hands of Lu Zhe have been close to 300,000, and Lu Zhe has also purchased a large number of horses from other countries.

Although it is not clear how many horses Lu Zhe bought from other countries, there should always be seventy or eighty thousand, which adds up to nearly 400,000. In addition, it is necessary to count Lu Zhe's own horse farm to breed horses, it is obvious that it is too late to restrict the import of horses into Lu Zhe's side now, so what is it to let Lu Zhe have more than 200,000 horses, compared to the importance of this battle, the risk has long been there, so much risk is what the Qin State must bear.

Lu Zhe raised his hand to stop Meng Yi from continuing, and he asked Meng Yi to go down and rest for the time being.

Meng Yi did not stalk him, and understood very well that Lu Zhe's side always had to consider the pros and cons, so he left after another thoughtful salute.

"Isn't it that you haven't said what kind of king you want to be crowned, why did you leave so neatly?" Su Lie was a Qin native, and he would not reject the First Emperor from giving Lü Zhe the title of king like some people from the Six Kingdoms. He is a person who will say whatever he thinks in his head, completely ignoring the feelings of his colleagues around him, and he has a pity on his face.

Kuai Tong glared angrily at Su Lie, who was speechless, and said loudly: "Lord, the sinister heart of the Qin State is obvious! ”

Some people immediately agreed, they naturally thought that Lu Zhe had to be the king, but he couldn't be sealed by the Qin State, and he was unwilling to be sealed by the Qin State.

Lu Zhe touched his forehead with some confusion, saying that the king's affairs had been entangled for almost four months, and his subordinates had not stopped persuading him intermittently. Huishou defeated the Qi Yan coalition army with an overwhelming advantage, Qi Yan seems to be a powerful country in the Central Plains, and the pride of most of his subordinates has reached a peak, and it is difficult to delay it with no time. What about the other sane people? They may be willing to think about the matter of their own lord becoming king after their own force has the strength to annex the world, but they are obviously upset when they are stirred up by Meng Yi.

"It's a good thing to be king. This marquis has become this king, and some of you will be able to break through the restrictions of the feudal marquis and become the marquis. Lu Zhe said with a smile, and the group of people below were also happy to listen to it.

Kuaitong was also happy, but he still said his thoughts: "The Lord is called lonely, and we will naturally follow the nourishment." Who doesn't know that Lu Zhe will not eat alone, as long as these followers have the corresponding merit to become nobles, they are ironclad. His face slowly became grim: "But if the Qin Emperor is the king, even if we don't have the idea of standing on the side of the Qin State to participate in the war, I'm afraid the countries won't believe it." ”

Those who were unwilling to be the object of their allegiance to be canonized by the Qin Emperor were immediately attached to it, and there were quite a few such people in the past.

Kuaitong was talking about the big truth, and first he was extremely sure that Lu Zhe must be the king, but let the Qin State fight with the other countries, this is a big strategy that has been formulated a long time ago, and it is also a good thing to come out to pick peaches when necessary, how can it be destroyed?
