A country that has not experienced a foreign war, a country that has not defeated a strong opponent, a country that is just pinching around in its own home, cannot become an empire.

Jia Xu and Guo Jia tried to persuade Emperor Hongwu that Eastern Wu was the main thing, so it was better to negotiate peace for the time being.

However, as soon as he heard the word "peace", Emperor Hongwu's nerves exploded.

Peace? The first foreign war was negotiated peace!

Qin Feng was furious, walked down the dragon platform, glared at everyone in the tent, and said coldly: "Peace, peace, peace for more than a thousand years, what did you get in the end?" How much land was lost, almost colonized. I am absolutely not going to meet and! ”

Everyone fell to their knees, even Xin Xianying, who was recorded in the corner curtain. They have not experienced the later history and do not know the reason why Emperor Hongwu was furious.

"I! Yes, absolutely, not meeting and! ”

"The emperor is angry......." Jia Xu bowed to the ground, "Minister, put on your liver and gall, assist the emperor to defeat Guishuang, and raise my Great Qin Tianwei outside the territory!" ”

"Raise my Great Qin Tianwei!" The generals were all filled with righteous indignation, clenched their fists, and opened their eyes. Huang Zhong and Yan Yan, two veterans, were even more angry, vowing to fight Guishuang to the death.

Qin Feng also gradually calmed down, ordered everyone to get up, and then returned to the dragon chair and sat down, and said to the ministers in a serious voice: "Guishan, located in the center of the Eurasian continent. Whoever controls the exchange of the world will control the exchange of the world. Guishan controlled this place, choking the transit station of the Silk Road. Now that Guishan has sent troops to invade the land of my Great Qin, if it is a peace, it will be an alliance under the city. If we show weakness to the enemy, we will inevitably encourage their arrogance. And immediately after, the Silk Road of huge trade. It will definitely become the target of the Kushan Empire. The successive unequal treaties that followed would crush the Great Qin ....... ”

The ministers suddenly realized. yes, the enemy is coming to hit you. If you negotiate peace, then the enemy will definitely put forward many conditions, and you will not agree?

It's a shame to agree.

If you don't agree, why be embarrassed to negotiate peace!

"The Emperor Shengming!" And they all bowed.

Jia Xu asked cautiously at this time: "Your Majesty, the Silk Road is the ...... of those merchants." ”

Qin Feng shook his head and said to his courtiers, "Foreign trade is extremely important. What do you mean. When a businessman is rich, is it the wealth of an individual? Then you are wrong. It should be used in the opposite way, for example, Daqin has 100 million guan money, which is the total amount. Our foreign trade has weakened, and our adversary's trade has increased. The other side will keep taking money from our country until our country dries up and the economy collapses. ”

The trade deficit has always been the biggest headache for the major powers in later generations, and some superpowers have not hesitated to impose unilateral and crazy sanctions. to reverse.

Qin Feng said generally, but the examples are more appropriate, and it does not prevent the ministers from understanding. It's like everyone has a pot of rice, and the spoon is trade. Whoever catches a lot of fish quickly will end up with nothing in the other party's pot. If the food is gone, just wait to starve to death.

"Wen He. You come to draft the edict, and Great Qin will declare war on Guishan. Guo Jia. Immediately send news to Yedu and announce it to the world. Great Qin would fight the Kushan and temporarily halt foreign trade on the Silk Road. It is believed that it will not be long before the merchants of Daqin will not be able to use the Silk Road, and the merchants of Daqin can trade with the West on their own borders. The corners of Qin Feng's mouth curled and said lightly.

Soon, the edict spread to the world:

I opened the country in Fengtian, ruled the Great Qin, and within the four seas, I am all naked. The clown of Xiyi, Gashi Sega, was arrogant and provoked war. Peeking into the place where I am attached, between the fancy styles, the wolf smoke is everywhere, the realm of the Yin River, and the edge is .......

The virtue of Great Qin spread that I would inevitably slash the head of Kasserga II, spread it all over the world, and forever be the ring of Xiyi, and vent the anger of the gods.

I am great Qin Ren and gracious, and those who are obedient are not in trouble. Righteousness and martial arts are vigorous, although the jumper is strong, he will poke. Now use this to announce the world and show the ...... of the four provinces.

Fu Lou Sha.

In the palace of Kasega II, there was a constant roar of anger.

"I didn't declare war on Emperor Hongwu, Emperor Hongwu dared to declare war on me, on my Kushan Empire!"

"Who does Emperor Hongwu think he is? He, a yellow-skinned monkey from the East, has a little strength, does he think he can be above the world? ”

"Rome! Rest! Such an empire does not dare to face up to my Guishuang, and in this world, it is not his turn to be Qin. ”

"I'm so angry, I must teach Qin Guo a good lesson, teach Emperor Hongwu a good lesson, and let him know that he is not qualified, not qualified to speak in this world! He wants my head, and I will use the head of Emperor Hongwu to pass it on to Anxib and Rome, so that the whole world knows that Daqin is the real clown! ”

Later generations of China, in this era, have never stretched out their tentacles to places outside the territory. Even when it was at its strongest, it only chased it out and walked a few steps before coming back. Except for a few small countries around, in the world where the real strong in the West are respected, there is only the concept of "rich place" for China, and there is never a strong concept.

Therefore, in the eyes of the war with Rome, the war with the rest, and the annexation of a large number of powerful countries to create the prosperity of the Kushan Empire, this Qin, who had just stepped out of the country, was just a small point. It doesn't know what it means to be powerful, it doesn't know who is in the world. And who can speak on the stage of this world.

The Kushan Empire had a strong voice, so the Kasega II, with the title of king of kings, would not tolerate a small provocation. He wanted to teach Qin a lesson and let all the countries in the world know that Guishan was powerful.

The Guishan ministers looked at Qin's declaration of war one by one, full of disdain and disdain.

As if throwing a bone, the imperial prime minister threw down the declaration of war and sneered: "This Hongwu Emperor doesn't know the height of the sky, he has no opponent in the east, so he thinks that there is no opponent in the world. He provoked the Cun zài, Guishuang, who he couldn't provoke, and would definitely teach Qin Guo a lesson. ”

"Qin State and Emperor Hongwu must pay a terrible price!" The ministers said together.

So, after receiving the edict of Emperor Hongwu declaring war, the Kushan of Kasega II declared war on the Qin state.

The nascent Great Qin began to challenge the Kushan Empire, which had been powerful for more than a hundred years.

The news came in the Great Qin country, and the people of Great Qin were boiling. Under the indoctrination of Emperor Hongwu for many years. The people of Great Qin have abandoned the imprisoned thinking of the previous dynasty. They know that this world called the earth is very large, and the Central Plains is not the center of the world. There are many powerful countries in the world that are not inferior to Great Qin. Some are more powerful than Great Qin.

However, the pride of the nation, the sense of responsibility. Inspiring the people of Great Qin. Great Qin will not lose to anyone, and Great Qin can defeat a challenge from any country in the world, even if this country is far stronger than Great Qin.

The people of Great Qin spontaneously organized themselves and donated money and materials. Many people came outside the Forbidden City, chanting the honorific title of Emperor Hongwu. And the crown prince Qin Yan accepted the worship of the people for his father.

"The emperor is so loved by the people, Great Qin will definitely defeat Guishuang, the emperor, the successor of the Qin family will be passed on from generation to generation. There's still a lot to learn,......。 Cai Yan said.

"Queen Mother, the military advisors of the Military Aircraft Department always say this to Erchen, and Erchen knows what to do."

Cai Yan looked at Qin Yan carefully, his son had grown up, and he was vaguely the same as when he first saw Qin Feng.

The Qin State and the Guishan are at war!

The news reached Soochow.

Emperor Sun Quangao of Great Wu sat on the dragon chair in the treasure hall, staring with blue eyes, shaking his purple hair, and asked the ministers, "Where is Guishuang?" ”

The ministers panicked. The heart said that the emperor didn't know anything, this is not good.

Zhou Yu came out of the class and said: "Guishan is said to be very far away to the west, even farther than the Western Regions. ”

"Oh!" Sun Quan asked again: "What about the national strength of Guishan?" How big is the territory and how many troops are there? ”

"I know that. Yesterday, I was still looking at the world map and information from Jiangbei. "Lu Xun hurriedly left work, anyway, when the court meeting, he must play more correctly than Zhou Yu." Your Majesty, there are three great empires in the world. They were Rome, Sabbath, and Kushan, and these three empires ruled the Western world. This Kushan Empire is very powerful. It is said that there are 1 million troops, and the area is ....... He pondered for a moment, "It should be as big as four or five Wu Kingdoms." ”

"What!" Sun Quan was stunned for a moment, he thought that Guishan was also at the level of the Western Regions, and he would be wiped out if he sent 350,000, but he didn't expect that there were 1 million soldiers, many times larger than his own country. He glared at him, shook his head and said, "Qin Zijin is crazy!" ”

"It's crazy indeed." The ministers of Eastern Wu were not optimistic about Emperor Hongwu, and they longed for Emperor Hongwu to lose from their hearts, so that they would have a chance.

Sun Quan couldn't understand it, and sneered: "Qin Feng is full of food and can go so far away. But that's fine, he can go on an expedition, and I can sit back and relax. ”

An aspiring courtier like Zhou Yu, although he is also laughing, he is very yearning in his heart. Aspire to go abroad and show off on the real world stage. Even Qin Feng didn't know that he was injecting new ideas into the East, so that the East, which had been in ancient retreat, would set its sights on the whole world more than a thousand years in advance.

"If Qin Zijin defeats Guishan ......." Zhou Yu walked out of Sun Quan's palace in thought, "In the world, a new empire is about to be born. So, where is the road of Soochow? ”

In the fifth year of Hongwu, Great Qin's first real foreign war officially kicked off, and the first opponent of the nascent Great Qin was the Kushan Empire, one of the world's three major empires.

At this moment, Daqin finally walked out of the country and stepped onto the world stage for the first time. The Roman Empire, the Rest Empire, the former empires of Egypt, Greece, Persia, etc., etc., they set their eyes on the East, and for the first time they began to really pay attention to the East, and began to discuss the rise of the Great Qin in the East.

Will this newly rising country change the pattern of the world? Rome watched from the sidelines, and couldn't wait to rest in peace.

Emperor Hongwu once said: A country that has not really gone abroad is not an empire, a country that has not destroyed foreign countries is not an empire, and a country that has sent its daughters is not an empire.

Rome, Sabbath, Kushan, and many countries fell in their hands, including the three ancient civilizations.

And Daqin, can let the world know the strength of the East?

In January, 100,000 Qin troops embarked on their first expedition. In the direction pointed by the golden spear, will the Qin army be able to bring a brilliant victory to their king, their country, and their people? (To be continued......)
