Daqin: When I return from sea, I will offer you a map of the world

Chapter 10 The First Emperor was very confident in solving these problems

People who stay and don't remember their hometown is a problem, and it can't be left alone.

After thinking about it carefully, Meng Yi came up with a solution.

Let this group of people follow Zhao Si to Xianyang to farm.

No way, if you can’t remember your hometown, you have to issue an ID card. It’s impossible to let them be black households just because they can’t remember their hometown.

Of course it is okay to stay in Langya, but to be honest, all of these people are talents, and those who have received new testimonials and returned home have prepared their own records.

After all, they are the only sailors with rich ocean sailing experience left in Daqin.

If there is anything in the future, they will be selected separately. It is the kindness of the first emperor to let them go home if they remember their hometown clearly. Directly enter the native place near Xianyang, and save the trouble of recruiting and transferring in the future.

In addition, most of these sailors also have some experience with the three new grains of sweet potato, potato and corn, at least they have seen it?

Zhao Si is in charge of cultivating new crops, so there must be available manpower.

As for the ships returning from the sea, they will naturally be kept and maintained by the local government in Langya.

Zhao Si sailed around the world with insufficient manpower and tools, and there were no decent ports available for docking during the voyage, so most of the ships were dilapidated.

Some ships can still be used with minor repairs, but they are limited to insufficient conditions, and they can only be left overseas in the end, which is a pity.

Although the sixteen sea-going ships are dilapidated, they are usable anyway, and they are the only large ships with ocean-going capabilities left in Daqin. Of course, they must be treated properly.

"The ship should be properly repaired, and four more ships will be built in Langya to make up for [-] ships."

"The tour is not over yet, but the farming season must not be missed. You take Zhao Si and his party back to the pass and deliver them to Wang Ben to plant new crops."

Emperor Shi Huang ordered them one by one.

Zhao Si presented the world map and nautical chart, which is a new expansion and exploration for Daqin, and at the same time can greatly enrich the actual theoretical support of the Great Kyushu theory.

A large part of the reason why the Great Kyushu theory prevailed in the Qin Dynasty was because after the Great Qin ruled the world, it was inevitable to continue to expand and explore outwards due to institutional reasons.

In the land of the north and the south, there are nearly one million Qin troops in total.

If it was just for self-protection, he would have been out of his mind to place so many Qin troops on the border.

To put it bluntly, the level of science and technology in the Great Qin Dynasty is crushing the surrounding countries, and the Huns in the north are also in chaos. Although the Huns are on the rise, there is still a long way to go before all the tribes in the grassland are called the Huns.

To put it bluntly, Daqin's frontier army can be reduced by two-thirds to protect itself.

At least now, looking at economic expenditure and harvest is completely out of proportion, the Qin army with millions of north and south is now like a bottomless pit.

The farming and warfare system made Great Qin possible, but it inevitably pushed Great Qin into another abyss.

And Jiuzhou said that it obviously violated Daqin's farming and warfare system.

According to Kyushu, the Great Qin ruled the world and has already occupied the most affluent land and territory in the world. The other areas are all barren lands.

And the Dajiuzhou said that it can be popular, so to speak, it fits Daqin's farming and warfare system.

After crossing the vast ocean and high mountains that separate Chixian Shenzhou, there is still a land as rich as Chixian Shenzhou waiting to be conquered.

The Great Qin and the Southern and Northern Qi made great efforts, with grasslands, deserts and snow-capped mountains to the north, and poisonous insect miasma, deep mountains and old forests to the south.

Daqin is already trying to find a new big state across the natural barrier between the north and the south.

As for Xu Fu's journey to the sea to seek immortals, it may not simply be to seek immortals. Exploring new worlds may also be part of the mission.

At present, the Great Qin is ruling the world, and there is no one before or after. There are no examples to learn from.

And the first emperor instinctively noticed the hidden dangers of the Great Qin Empire, or the hidden dangers of the Shang Yang Law.

If the first emperor had been a staunch supporter of the Shang Yang law, there would have been no court battles between the great Confucian Chun Yuyue and the legalist representative Li Si after the unification of the world.

The First Emperor himself was constantly making choices, otherwise Chun Yuyue would have no chance to fight, let alone become the teacher of the eldest son Fusu.

And Li Si, who was able to win this battle, must not only simply admire the law of Shang Yang, but must also lead certain reforms of the laws of the Great Qin Dynasty.

Qin State ruled the country with legalism, but the law was not static.

The law was changed again and again, and Shang Yang didn't have the ability to formulate a system that would allow Qin to rule the world as long as the scriptures were not changed.

Throughout the ages, no one has been able to formulate it.

Every time the king of Qin is replaced, and the person in charge is replaced, the law will be supplemented and revised again and again.

Even many laws enacted during the Shang Dynasty have changed beyond recognition now that Li Si is in power, and the degree of reward and punishment is also very different.

What remains unchanged is the system of farming and warfare and the system of official administration.

The system of farming and warfare guaranteed Qin's war mobilization power, and a sufficient number of officials with complete basic knowledge ensured the implementation of Qin's laws and the implementation of the reward and punishment system.

But now, Qin's farming and warfare system and official system have problems at the same time.

After the unification of the world, all the land available for conquest has been incorporated into the king's land, but there are too many meritorious people, and there are more people waiting to make meritorious deeds.The deep-rooted veteran military families are eager for class solidification, but those emerging military nobles obviously have more desires.

There are even problems with the distribution of land involving low-level meritorious soldiers, because it turns out that Qin's local good land is almost rewarded, and there are lands in the Six Kingdoms, but who wants to distribute the land abroad?
Compared with the precarious farming and warfare system, Daqin's official system has already been riddled with holes.

In other words, as early as the early days of Qin Shihuang's succession to the throne, the official system had already begun to explode.

Qin's commendable institutional execution is driven by a large number of officials.

Therefore, the peak period of Qin's official administration was the period when Shang Yang was in power.

Since then, every expansion of land was essentially a retrogression of official administration.

The price paid for the increase in population and land is the reduction of government execution and central control.

Only by spending a lot of time to re-implement the Qin law in Xintu and train officials can the gap be filled.

After the first emperor succeeded to the throne, there was chaos in Chengxu, and Lord Changping rebelled against Qin.

Cheng Yu's momentum was still low, and he was barely within the control range. Lord Changping's rebellion against Qin even directly led to the failure of the first war against Chu.

The rebellion of the two is inevitable, but the fact that such a huge momentum can be set off shows that there have been serious problems in the administration of officials in Qin, and the strength of supervision and central control has declined extremely significantly.

And it became even more obvious after the Qin State unified the six kingdoms, the private soldiers of the Xiang family, the assassination by Zhang Liang, and the evil intentions of the prefect of Kuaiji...

This all shows that the government of Qin has inevitably collapsed.

And these, the first emperor can clearly feel it, but he proudly believes that under his own suppression, these are not problems.

Farming system stagnant?Then conquer new lands?
Government backsliding?Then spend manpower and material resources to continue training.

ten years? 20 years?Given enough time, he has the confidence to solve these problems.

And the things that Zhao Si brought back this time were correspondingly precious.

Whether it's the world map, or three new crops.
