Qin Hu

Chapter 69 Does Great Qin Have a Benevolent Government?You are kidding me!

Zhao Zihu had indeed thought about the upcoming Southern Expedition to Baiyue, and he had just thought about it in the past two days.

After all, Zhao Tuo, the Martial King of Nanyue who picked Daqin peaches, was appointed by Yingzheng to be the leader of his retinue.

With this Nanyue Martial King by his side, and Zhao Zihu also knew that the whole court was preparing for the Southern Expedition to Baiyue, so naturally he couldn't help thinking about it!

In his previous life, he didn't know much about the Qin Zheng Baiyue War. He only knew that Yingzheng recruited 50 soldiers and civilians in the early stage and pushed it over. The start was very smooth.

However, the resistance of the South Vietnamese barbarians was very fierce. If they couldn't fight the frontal battlefield, they went into the forest and suddenly jumped out to launch a sneak attack.

When the main general died, the morale of the army was in turmoil, and more than half of the 50 soldiers and civilians were lost. It was extremely tragic!

Yingzheng's domineering temperament came up, and after the appointment of a new general, he dispatched another 30 soldiers and civilians, together with Tu Sui's more than 20 remnants of defeated generals, pushed them over again, and finally brought Baiyue to an abrupt level!
During this period, it seems that an artificial canal was built, called Lingqu.

In addition, Zhao Tuo seems to be one of the deputy generals of the second wave of the army. After the Baiyue was pacified, he was stationed in the south, which led to the chaos at the end of Qin.

Combining these limited historical knowledge, Zhao Zihu pondered the battle of the Southern Expedition to Baiyue from the perspective of a prophet. In addition, he looked at it from the perspective of future generations, so he naturally concluded that the Southern Expedition to Baiyue was a foolish battle. result.

"Why did you say that, son?"

Wang Ben asked somewhat in a daze.

Zhao Zihu hesitantly said, "Among the hundreds of schools of knowledge, there is one named Zonghengjia. For nearly a hundred years, our Daqin has relied on those famous Zonghengjia to manage the world in the Great Zhou Dynasty and finally unify China."

"Otherwise, it would have been divided up by the six countries attacking Qin several times, just like the Jin country!"

When Wang Ben heard the words, he couldn't help laughing, and shook his head with a smile: "The situation is different, young master, don't take it for granted."

"No matter how chaotic the world is in the Great Weekend, it will be the civil strife in the Xia Dynasty after all. Envoys from various countries communicate with each other, and there is still room for mediation."

"The southern expedition to Baiyue is the expansion of China, and the barbarians don't know how to reciprocate!"

"It's just like the war with Yiqu in our Great Qin Dynasty, and the war with the Xiongnu today. They are a pack of wolves. If you feed them enough, they will be honest. If you can't feed them enough, they will come to bite you. Simple and straightforward .”

"Furthermore, in the Great Zhou Dynasty, didn't it depend on the Great Qin Bingfeng to put it down in the end? The vertical and horizontal technique may be useful, but it is only an auxiliary means, and we must not rely too much on it!"

Hearing what he said, Zhao Zihu knew that he had misunderstood what he meant, and while wolfing down wine and meat, he said: "Marquis Tongwu is thinking about it, the vertical and horizontal technique is not just as simple as envoy exchanges."

Wang Ben was stunned, and looked at his son Wang Li.

But Wang Li is more confused than him. His father doesn't understand Zhao Zihu's intentions. How could he understand... He is Zhao Zihu's good big brother, it's okay to have fun with Zhao Zihu. Let his eyes catch mosquito coils!

"Tsk..."

Looking at the cowardly appearance of his eldest son, Wang Ben couldn't help biting his teeth in disgust, and turned his eyes away to look at Han Fei and the Confucian scholars.

And Han Fei and all the Confucian scholars are from the Central Plains, and they are probably more thoughtful than Wang Ben, a Qin general who is full of military exploits.

"Well, what do you mean, young master, to use pipes to trick you?"

Han Fei asked hesitantly.

The so-called Guanzi naturally refers to the pioneer of Legalism, the teacher of saints, the protector of Chinese civilization, the first prime minister of China, Zhuge Liang's idol... One of the protagonists of Guan Baozhi, Guan Zhong!
The so-called Guan Zi's old plan refers to Guan Zhong's military campaign, which used economic warfare to make the countries of the Central Plains miserable at that time, established the status of the great overlord of the Qi State, and made Qi Huangong so arrogant that he wanted to follow suit. Zhou Tianzi engaged in Taishan Fengchan...

As for Wang Ben, he couldn't think of this point, it was because of his environment. Since the reform of Shang Yang, the Great Qin has always suppressed merchants, and everyone is proud of farming and fighting.

The status of merchants is equal to that of slaves and sons-in-law. Whenever there is a big war or a big project, they will be conscripted into hard labor. If you die from exhaustion, you will be considered unlucky.

You let the old Qin people be businessmen, but all the old Qin people with more backbone will spit at you: 【Who are you scolding?You are the businessman!Your whole family are businessmen! 】

But the land of the Central Plains, and even the land of Yanzhao and Chu, is different from the Great Qin Dynasty. Since Guan Zhong, commerce and trade have developed.

But in the midst of disdain and disgust, envy, after all, who would not want to have a house full of money and food, and concubines in groups?

Engaging in merchant activities, in the eyes of common people, Qianshou, is actually no less than the Great Qin military merit system, the best way to achieve class transition, because with rich family resources, one can naturally catch up with nobles, just like Lu Buwei...

Then again, Qin Fa is unpopular in the old land of the Six Kingdoms, and suppressing merchants may not be one of the reasons!

"That's right, Guanzi's trick..."

Zhao Zihu confirmed Han Fei's conjecture, swallowed the wine and meat in his mouth, and said, "Our Great Qin has a vast array of resources, such as the Huns, Donghu, and Yuezhi, who often enter the customs and plunder, aren't they also greedy for our family's things?"

"Although the barren land in South Vietnam is rich, it is undeveloped, and the smelting and farming technology is backward. Compared with the northern Great Wall, it is actually not much better."

"Daqin can definitely engage in economic warfare, and bring down Baiyue first, causing their people to boil with resentment."

"And taking advantage of the time period of economic warfare, we can also take the opportunity to find out the reality of Baiyue, and let the intermediary merchants focus on making friends with some weak barbarian kings."

"Such a combination of vertical and horizontal techniques can come in handy. Support the weak, carve up the strong, and let them use their own brains to play like dogs."

"When the people of Baiyue are full of resentment, when Baiyue fights each other with only one breath left, we Daqin will send troops again. At that time, we don't need 50 soldiers and civilians, and we don't need to empty out Daqin's family. We can even let the merchants go wild without using weapons. Propagating the benevolent government of my Great Qin, let the Baiyue barbarians who have seen the beauty of China look forward to joining the Great Qin and ending the chaotic rule of the barbarian kings..."

"In this way, wouldn't it be beautiful to leave a treasure land for future generations to slowly develop and manage?"

Wang Ben and Han Fei nodded their heads repeatedly, but they were full of admiration.

Although Zhao Zihu's words were empty talk and too much bragging, one has to admit that there are merits.

There are great redeeming qualities!

However, Chun Yuyue and other Confucian scholars were stimulated by Zhao Zihu's words of "promoting my Great Qin's benevolent government", their faces twitched crazily, and they couldn't hold their chopsticks steadily.

Does Daqin have a benevolent government?

You are kidding me!
