Great Qin Empress's Infrastructure Handbook

Chapter 338 Frontier Defense and Pirates

In the past few years, although Zhang Han has had conflicts with those countries in Lingnan, they are just small troubles.

Zhang Han was basically on guard in Lingnan, and Zhao Qingrui transferred him back with the intention of sending him to Kuaiji County.

As merchants gradually entered the sea, more ships came and went on the sea, and many pirates were born.

There are also some pirates occupying some small islands as strongholds in the sea. Before the court had too many things to do, Zhao Qingrui put this matter on hold for the time being.

In addition to stationing in Lingnan these years, Zhang Han has also trained the navy. Zhao Qingrui will mobilize most of the people back this time.

The emperor wants to go to overseas continents, and these navies will definitely come in handy. Before that, she needs to make these navies have stronger combat capabilities.

Half a month later, Zhang Han returned to Xianyang with his people.

Zhao Qingrui met Zhang Han. She met Zhang Han several times. When there were important decisions in the court and some important changes, Zhang Han would come back.

Looking at the resolute man in front of him, Zhao Qingrui felt more and more satisfied.

After a few years, Zhang Han has become more resolute, and it is completely impossible to see that he was once a civil servant.

"Pingshen, you have worked hard defending Lingnan." Zhao Qingrui looked at Zhang Han gently.

"It's the minister's duty, it's not hard work." Zhang Han said respectfully.

It took this girl from an illegitimate daughter all the way to the throne of the emperor, and it took only a few years for the first emperor to abdicate early. She took over Daqin, which was something they never dared to think about before.

"Qing rests in Xianyang for a while, and I have to discuss the next plan with Qing." Zhao Qingrui said seriously.

"I take orders." Zhang Han bowed in response.

In the past few years of training and expelling those enemies who were eyeing Daqin, he also found that he was more suitable for the army.

It's a pity that when the first emperor attacked the Huns, he was left behind and had no chance to go to the battlefield.

Now that he was mobilized back with most of the navy, Zhang Han also had some guesses in his mind.

These people will definitely not stay in Xianyang for a long time, and His Majesty must have other arrangements for him.

Having been a general for so many years, he is also eager to make contributions.

Above the court meeting, it is basically education-related matters, but fortunately, education has been promoted.

In the past two years, the economy has become more prosperous, and all parts of Daqin are thriving.

"Zhang Han, Wang Li stays here."

After the court meeting was over, the two came to Zhangtai Palace. Zhao Qingrui was looking at the report sent over, which was about the situation in the army.

Daqin now has an army of more than 100 million, but these troops are too scattered, and these troops cannot be transferred away if they want to be stationed in these places.

Now Daqin has also emerged many excellent generals, which is also a good thing for Daqin.

However, there are still many loopholes in the defense line guarding the border, which needs to be re-deployed.

When the two came over, Wang Jian was already in Zhangtai Palace. Seeing Wang Jian, Wang Li silently lowered his head, but Zhang Han didn't recognize him at all.

Only those trusted by the emperor like Li Si knew about the situation of old general Wang Jian.

"Follow me to the place where my father is." Zhao Qingrui said to the others, and then took them to the villa where Ying Zheng was staying.

Sitting in the car, Zhao Qingrui listened to Wang Jian's analysis of the situation in the Great Qin Army. This is not what he is good at, so he can only learn more from Wang Jian.

Zhang Han and Wang Li sat on the side, not daring to look at this side, they were also shocked.

Your Majesty is very concerned about the army. Although she has never led an army in battle, she is working hard to make the whole of Daqin better.

The two admired Zhao Qingrui even more in their hearts.

Earth-shaking changes have taken place in Xianyang City. Even though he has seen it several times, Zhang Han is still not at peace.

Today's Majesty is also constantly mobilizing people's power for infrastructure construction, but unlike the first emperor, she used to just blindly mobilize people's power.

But now, under Zhao Qingrui's governance, even the infrastructure construction has made life in Qianshou better and better.

Now that the construction of Xianyang City is completed, in addition to the border defense, it is more about the group of prisoners who will be released.

The ones that don't need to be released have now been sent to the ship, ready to be sent to Yingzhou Island for mining.

Where to send the rest and how to keep them safe is also a problem.

These things still need to be discussed with the emperor. Thinking of these, Zhao Qingrui felt a headache for a while.

Soon came to the villa, even Wang Jian was here for the first time.

Looking around in surprise, it looks so beautiful here.

No wonder His Majesty doesn't live in Efang Palace and is coming to live here.

Walking in with Zhao Qingrui, the buildings and decorations inside were something they had never seen before, and these things were so novel.

Ying Zheng was very surprised that Zhao Qingrui came with important members of the army.

"Why bother me if you have nothing to do?" Lying leisurely on the rocking chair, a beauty beside him took an orange and fed it into his mouth one by one.

"Father's life is too leisurely." Zhao Qingrui sat directly next to Ying Zheng, looked at him enviously, waved his hand, and made the beauties beside Ying Zheng retreat.

"The widows are already taking care of themselves, how about enjoying it?" Ying Zheng said calmly, his eyes swept over Wang Li and Zhang Han.

When Zhao Qingrui recommended Zhang Han to him, he was still very surprised.

Zhang Han's performance in Lingnan in the past few years has not disappointed him, and he is quite satisfied with Zhang Han.

"There are some things that need to be exhausted, father." Zhao Qingrui brought tea to Ying Zheng in a fawning manner.

"It's not that the widows are talking about you. You are the emperor now. You can go to Feng Quji to discuss matters in the court." Ying Zheng said helplessly.

"I think so too, but Li Si and the others are going crazy during this time, I'm too embarrassed to speak to them, so I can only come to discuss with my father."

"Father Huang Xiong is a generalist. The Great Qin has completed the unification under your hands. No one is more familiar with the affairs of the court than you. If you are capable, do more work." Zhao Qingrui said coquettishly.

"Come on, what's the matter?" Ying Zheng put on airs, and outsiders are still there. This girl is already the emperor, and she doesn't know what to pay attention to.

"It's a matter of border defense. There are many problems in the current border defense. Many places have not been guarded. The border defense line needs to be re-arranged to prevent any gaps in the border of Daqin." Zhao Qingrui said seriously.

"This is the first, and the second is that now I have released some of the prisoners in Jiangzuo Shaofu. Where these prisoners want to move, I need to discuss with the emperor." Zhao Qingrui said quickly.

Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Qingrui quietly, these things are not trivial.

"For the matter of border defense, you discuss with Marquis Wu Cheng and the others, but I don't want to care about it." Ying Zheng said lightly, this is a very troublesome matter, and now he is finally free and doesn't want to care about it.

Instead of worrying about these things, it's better to call Wang Ben over to discuss the art of war and see where to fight in a few years.

"Father." Zhao Qingrui hugged Ying Zheng's arm and acted like a baby. This matter has already involved her shortcomings. She can't make a decision easily, and she doesn't dare.

If something went wrong, she would be Daqin's sinner.

How many catties and taels she has, she still knows it in her heart.

"Pay attention to your image." Ying Zheng scolded softly, with a helpless face.

Did this girl forget Wang Li and the others?

so tired.

"It's useless to beg widows. You can discuss with them yourself and talk about the relocation of those people." Ying Zheng said lightly.

"Well, there are tens of thousands of these people. With so many people, I'm not going to disperse them too far. I'm going to arrange some in every county in the Central Plains." Zhao Qingrui immediately sat up straight and did the math. Yes, there are still many generals available in the court, so you can take your time.

"You are also the emperor now, so you should call yourself Zhen." Ying Zheng frowned and corrected, but still agreed with Zhao Qingrui's point that these prisoners should not be gathered together, otherwise they would be led by someone with a heart, and accidents would happen.

"It's feasible, by the way, don't you want people to go to Yingzhou Island? How are you preparing?"

"We're all on our own here, so there aren't that many rules." Zhao Qingrui waved his hand, not caring too much about the address, since they're all at Father's place anyway, so there's no need to do that.

"I don't have time to solve this matter yet. This matter has to be taken slowly. Now the spring planting is over. Even if we want to move to Yingzhou Island, at least we have to wait until after the autumn harvest." Zhao Qingrui sighed and moved. It is more difficult to move to Yingzhou Island than to move to any place in Daqin.

She could already foresee that when the edict was promulgated, there would probably be very few people willing to respond.

Daqin laid down the grasslands, laid down Fuyu and Jizi North Korea and other places, the land expanded rapidly, coupled with the implementation of the gentry and gentry paying for grain together, the Guizhou capital of the Daqin was allocated to the fields, and basically they all had a stable life.

Under such circumstances, there are probably very few who are willing to stay away from their homeland.

At that time, it is necessary to promulgate more preferential policies, and it is necessary to discuss with the senior officials of the DPRK and China before making a decision on which preferential policies to give.

Seeing that his daughter was completely stupefied, Yingzheng's expression didn't change much. If it were him before, he would just move to Guishou, and he would not think so much about moving there directly.

After having Zhao Qingrui, his thinking also changed a lot.

"It's time to start preparing now. Otherwise, after the autumn harvest, we will have to wait until next year to relocate people there." Ying Zheng reminded.

"I know, but there are so many things going on. Father, do you want to come back to be regent? I really don't mind." Zhao Qingrui looked at her father eagerly.

"Don't talk nonsense, be careful if someone beats you." Ying Zheng frowned. If it wasn't for his daughter, he would have wanted to beat her with a whip.

He is too emperor now, and has voluntarily abdicated, so what is he doing there?

"Father doesn't love me anymore." Zhao Qingrui complained.

"If you talk nonsense, I'm really going to smoke someone." Ying Zheng took a deep breath, glanced at Wang Li and the others, and it was good, he didn't look at them.

Zhang Han lowered his head, and was horrified. It turned out that His Majesty and the Supreme Emperor got along like this.

No wonder, no wonder she was able to defeat Mr. Fusu and ascend to the throne so quickly.

He has also been in the Shaofu for so many years. It can be said that he is close to the first emperor. He knows exactly how Mr. Fusu and the first emperor get along.

The relationship between the first emperor and Mr. Fusu was not like the closeness between Zhao Qingrui and the first emperor, but more like the relationship between a monarch and his ministers.

"Although these things are a bit more complicated, you can solve them yourself. There is no need to come to the widow." Ying Zheng gently touched Zhao Qingrui's head.

Father's big hands are very warm, and Zhao Qingrui also likes this feeling very much.

However, she still wanted to say that she didn't want to work hard anymore.

Of course, if she dared to say this, her father would probably lose her temper.

"Forget it, I already have some ideas on this matter, let the officials below do it when the time comes, father, Zhang Han and Wang Li, I am going to send them to Kuaiji County, where pirates are gradually rampant." Zhao Qing Rui became serious.

"You asked them to clean up the pirates?" Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows. He thought that this matter would be put on hold, but he didn't expect her to put it on the agenda so soon.

"Yeah, if we don't clean it up, those merchants will be less likely to go to the sea, which will also lead to a reduction in business taxes." Zhao Qingrui said as a matter of course.

Although Daqin is now powerful, it still needs a lot of money, especially for today's schools.

She has done so much to popularize education, and she will definitely not let the cause of education be hindered.

The first thing she needs is money, and those pirates have already hindered her from collecting business taxes.

We must know that the commercial tax at the end of last year was more than [-] million yuan.

These pirates have trouble with her, and she naturally can't tolerate them.

Daqin is now in peace, and there are still pirates.

Therefore, these pirates were either made by the descendants of the six countries, or they were people from overseas, no matter which one, they all hindered her.

"It doesn't matter if it's cleaned up, it can make the business develop faster. This is a good thing. What's the trouble with it? I asked you to come and talk to the widow?" Ying Zheng expressed his support for this matter.

A healthy business environment can also promote Daqin's economy, which is a great thing.

"Arrangement, I don't know how to arrange it. Is it possible to send them out like this? Apart from preparing weapons and money for them, I don't know a lot. All, I need the emperor very much." Zhao Qing Rui said seriously.

"You are the emperor, since you are not good at these things, let them make their own plans. After you and the generals have passed the plan, let them carry out the plan." Ying Zheng knocked Zhao Qingrui on the head.

"Then father wants to help with the counseling?" Zhao Qingrui looked at Ying Zheng eagerly.

Her father was so idle, she looked envious.

But the matter of making a plan is indeed, I almost forgot, this time is too busy, I can't find the north because of the busyness.

Fortunately, her father reminded her that it was great to have her father here. If her father was no longer there, she would have too many things to worry about. People in the court had to be careful and careful, and it was tiring to think about it.
