Chapter 392: The Military's Fault

Young, virtuous, old and faint kings abound, but the problem is that the first emperor is now in the prime of life! Why did he become a stupid person in Sima Xin's mouth?

Well, because the First Emperor was obsessed with immortality, he ate too many pills with lead poison, although he was in the prime of life, his body and bones were really not good, but it was a fact.

The First Emperor's obsession with immortality was a thought when he destroyed the second or third of the Six Kingdoms, and it was not a big secret that all the warlocks of the destroyed royal families of various countries were accepted into the Xianyang Palace.

Lu Zhe finally remembered what he had left behind, there had been an incident in history where a large shipbuilder only went to sea to find Penglai Immortal Island, and it seemed that he also summoned three thousand boys and girls from various countries, but Xu Fu took the fleet to sea and then disappeared......

In later generations, it was often said that the Japanese archipelago was full of descendants of 3,000 boys and girls brought by Xu Fu, and Lu Zhe suddenly felt that he had crossed over and seemed to have done a good deed, at least to mess up the matter of Xu Fu, a god stick and a liar.

In the original history, after the first emperor unified the world, he launched a big project, levied and issued the world's conscription, so that the people could not rest, resulting in the people's resentment, as a result, after Chen Sheng and Wu Guang took the lead in slapping the Great Qin River, the tide became more and more flooded and caused the collapse of the Great Qin Dynasty.

There is nothing wrong with building a big road, but how can you not build a road in order to make the roads of the whole country unblocked? And as far as LΓΌ Zhe knows, the construction of the Chidao was basically the prisoners of war during the unification war and the Hu people captured from the grassland, and the Qin people seem to be relatively rare. So does the statement that Xiuchi Dao made the Qin people uneasy and resentful, can it make sense?

After the War of Unification, although there was still conscription and conscription in Qindi, it was basically mostly military service. According to the Qin law, the system that adult men need to serve once a year has been implemented for hundreds of years, and if it is said that the Qin people are resentful because of military service, it should have been resentful a long time ago.

Is there anything that Lu Zhe doesn't know? When he was stationed in Yangzhou, what he saw with his own eyes was that the young men from all over the country had been rushing to the side of the Great Wall, and although it was impossible to have the correct number of personnel, it would never be less than 300,000 conscripts. These conscripts were exchanged for Qin people? Analyze from the story of Meng Jiangnu crying on the Great Wall. It seems that it is reasonable for the Qin people to be requisitioned to build the Great Wall.

The Qin people are full of more than 5 million, except for the 500,000 who serve in the military, which is the so-called 500,000 standing army, and there are nearly 300,000 people to build the Great Wall, which is equivalent to almost draining the youth and strength of the old Qin people. Not to mention the manpower needed by the so-called county soldiers and so on in each county, the Qin people seem to be a little insufficient?

"Except for Chidao and the Great Wall, Daqin doesn't seem to have any projects, right?" Lu Zhe was a little unsure, in the past, his status was too low to see the whole picture, but now he is cutting his land and standing on his own and has not been able to get the relevant official documents from the center, just relying on spying will always have something that he has not noticed.

"You forgot? Lishan. Ah Fang Palace. Sima Xin was a little entangled.

Oh! Yes, there are also Lishan Imperial Mausoleum and Afang Palace, the question is that these two places were not stopped when there was a rebellion everywhere in the world?

"It's not a shutdown, it's just a reduction of about 700,000 people in the two places together to 300,000." Sima Xin felt that this new lord was too capable of finishing things.

"Aren't those all the official slaves of the Shaofu?" Lu Zhe is not ignorant or forgetful, but the laws of Great Qin are very clear, free people and slaves cannot be equated at all, and those slaves in Shaofu are not counted in the civil register, and they cannot be regarded as people, so slaves who are dissatisfied with the people are not qualified at all.

"Oops!" Sima Xin had a headache. Explained: "Lord, the slaves of Shaofu are rented from the people, and some Qiantou who does not have a title can rent slaves from Shaofu to use them for farming, housework, and so on. Slaves were not rented. The labor of the people is equal to a large number of shortages, and in this situation, the young and strong are still conscripted into the army, and the civil agriculture and so on have caused waste. ”

"Oh!!" After all, how long has Lu Zhe been in the Qin Dynasty. It's not uncommon to know a limited amount of things.

In this way, a large number of manpower has been withdrawn, resulting in a lack of labor among the people. A little grumbling is indeed well deserved. The question is...... In this way alone, the people can be as shown in the intelligence, what kind of internal grievances in the Qin State are boiling, and the people of Great Qin are disillusioned with Great Qin, will they be so strict?

"The most important thing is that the Qin people fought and shed blood, but the old Qin people above the court were low-ranking officials and lords, but the Shandong States and Chu Barbarians occupied high-ranking officials. At the time of the Great War, the Qin people adhered to the wishes of their ancestors and only wanted to fulfill the long-cherished wish of unifying the world, so that the blood of the Qin people who had been shed for hundreds of years would not be shed in vain. After the unification of the world, the long-cherished wish of the ancestors of the Qin people was fulfilled, and the tiredness, tiredness, and tiredness in my heart was unprecedentedly strong. "Sima Xin is a member of the so-called old Qin people, he is an authentic Qin person, and his demands for current affairs, including the head of Qian, are not false.

According to the people of the Six Kingdoms, Lu Zhe was born in Longxi, and he is also a so-called old Qin person, and he is also a low-level old Qin person, he should not be ignorant of the demands that those Qin people crave, Sima Xin only thought that Lu Zhe was taking the school examination, so his answers were true and heartfelt.

Who can guess such a bizarre truth, Lu Zhe traveled from more than 2,000 years ago, and his impression of the Qin State came from the text, and he entered the military camp immediately after crossing over, where do he know what customs and the actual situation of Qin land, let alone what the Qin people think.

"At the beginning of unification, the thinking of the Qin people was complicated, on the one hand, they hoped to take a breath, and on the other hand, they were worried that there would be no war to change their fate. However, on the whole, the Qin people are eager to live in peace and security when the world is unified. "Sima Xin is not from an aristocratic background, he climbed up from the bottom after a lot of struggle, and naturally he can clearly understand the thoughts of the small people in Shengdou.

This Lu Zhe actually saw something, because the world was unified in Longxi, the people really wanted to live a small life in peace, and think more about themselves, otherwise he would not have been sent to the military camp by the thief uncle instead of his son.

What about the military? In fact, no matter which dynasty or country's soldiers, what they fear most is peace. In peacetime, soldiers can only practice, eat, sleep, and then sleep, eat, and practice, and slowly it is time to mess around.

The influence of the military of Daqin on the country is extremely strong, after all, according to modern terminology, Daqin is a militaristic country, how low can the influence of the military of such a country be?

Without war, the value of soldiers cannot be reflected, many people want to be promoted by war, once the world is peaceful, soldiers are just a decoration, so what influence, what promotion, don't even think about it.

Facts also prove that once a soldier loses his value, he must be feared by the ruler, Wang Jian saw this before he retreated bravely, and those who had no eyes also resigned and retired under the gradual arrangement of the first emperor, and some people who grew up with the first emperor since childhood, such as Meng Tian and Wang Ben, can quickly ascend to the throne.

Meng Tian and Wang Ben and others are also soldiers, and they also have the same desire for war, so they are no different from the older generation of soldiers, oh...... There is still a difference, at least the older generation of soldiers has no way to say something that may not be appropriate as these cronies in the capacity of a small person.

"Actually...... If there is no Yiling Rebellion, the world will rebel everywhere sooner or later, I am glad to know and hear, not only the Xiang family, but also the royal families who have absconded in various countries are not planning to recover? It's just that...... The admonitors were all sidelined, and the military was happy to have frequent wars, so ......" Sima Xin sighed.

"Did I mishear, or did you mispronounce it? According to what you mean, the current situation is caused by the Great Qin Martial Artists? Lu Zhe raised his eyebrows very high, and looked at Sima Xin with a puzzled expression.

"Lord, Shin is not wrong. The Montessori and the Wang have been fighting for control of the northern frontier, because they know that there are not many places for Great Qin to fight, and if they want to maintain their wealth and glory, and also let their descendants be shaded, there will always be changes in favor of those who have no military exploits. The Montessori and the Wang clan have been advocating a war against the north and the south, which has been a long time coming, and I heard that the Wang clan also found a warlock who wanted to advise the Hu who died in Qin, in order to make His Majesty make up his mind to start a war with the Hu people of the grassland. Sima Xin swore a good word.

Hu the Dead Qin? It doesn't seem to be nonsense! If there is no Qin army chasing thousands of miles to the north, the Huns can really hit the city of Xianyang when they drive their horses south, and then there will be a repeat of the old things in the Hu cavalry of King Huiwen of Qin, this time it will not be as simple as 10,000 Qin troops can solve tens of thousands of Yiqu soldiers, and it is really hard to say what will happen after the world is shaken.

Will the First Emperor let the Hu cavalry come to the city? That's just kidding! Such an eloquent emperor seems to have said openly that he would rather let the soldiers of Shandong come to the city than let Hu ride a horse to gallop across the territory. Although I don't really understand what the First Emperor meant when he said this, it can probably be understood as "I would rather be a traitor than a foreign race".

After the Great Qin unified the world, it adopted the internal light and the external heavy, that is, all the troops were transferred to the national border, and the external iron and blood conquest was adopted, but the internal garrison was not much. Many people say that this is because the first emperor did not see that although the Six Kingdoms were destroyed, he was not calm, or he felt that his majesty, the people of the Six Kingdoms did not dare to offend, and made the most wrong strategy in his life, so that when the Six Kingdoms rebelled, there were no troops available in the country.

To be honest, who can comment on anything if they weren't at the time? Hindsight is the most disgusting!

As far as reality is concerned, the border of the Great Qin Tun soldiers is a practical need, the Xiongnu in the north are ready to move, and the Baiyue in the south has to be removed, even if it is really unstable internally, but it is better than an invasion of foreign races and then the internal contradictions erupt, right? If you don't take advantage of the fact that the internal can still be suppressed, first remove the external troubles, and then go back and sort out the inside, according to the situation at the time, first sort out the inside, and sort out the external troubles halfway through, and then it should be a situation where aliens gallop to the Central Plains and the land is largely lost.

"This ......" How did Lu Zhe think of the past of the Republic of China?

The Qin State wanted to resolve the external contradictions first, so that the internal contradictions broke out first when the external troubles were not resolved, but the untimely death of the First Emperor made it impossible for the strategy to be successfully implemented, which does not seem to be a decision-making error.

Is the phrase that the outside must be inside before the inside is summed up from the Qin period? That seems to ...... It's too out of context! (To be continued......)
