Da Qin: Rebuked the dissatisfied ministers, held the sword towards the emperor at the beginning

Chapter 55 A single spark starts a prairie fire, and the whole world turns against it! ?

The imperial censors of Da Qin were divided into three levels.

level one.

As a censor, he was responsible for impeachment and impeachment.

Supervising Yushi, dispatched to supervise counties and counties, is a very hard job, and it offends people.

Second floor.

Yu Zhongcheng, the second in command of supervision.

Yu Shicheng, the adjutant of the top supervisor.

the third floor.

Doctor Yushi, one of the three princes of the Great Qin Dynasty, has an annual salary of ten thousand stones, has the qualifications to independently recruit subordinate officials, can start a mansion to perform affairs, and also has special gifts of meals, carriages and horses.

and.

The imperial censor can also participate in the trial of cases, and can even directly judge criminals, which has considerable power.

now.

The first emperor handpicked Yin Lie to become Yushicheng, which was equivalent to directly promoting the latter from a non-official alchemist to become the deputy of the Yushi doctor Feng Quji!

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Yin Lie cupped his hands to thank him.

Kong Bai was dumbfounded on the spot!

Has he become a stepping stone?

"Little Alchemist Xiao!"

Kong Bai desperately wanted to refute, but he found that he could not dwell any longer on the two issues of destiny and public opinion.

Otherwise...he won't have any advantage...

It is even possible to be dragged directly into the water!

The general's meritorious service shocked the Lord!
Civil servants are also in danger of having too much power...

True.

Kong Bai himself did not have any real power, but he followed the trend, and in the name of asking for advice, he did things to restrain the emperor, which was a big taboo for the minister of ownership!
At this time.

Yin Lie put his hands behind his hands and shouted in a low voice: "Kong Pushe, I am now the censor appointed by your majesty. Please pay attention to your words and address, and don't mess with the regulations of the court!"

"you!!"

When Kong Bai heard this, veins popped out on his forehead!
What he just said to Yin Lie!
Now they are all treated tooth for tooth, eye for eye!
Kong Bai felt that his Confucian mentality had been greatly challenged!

He didn't know why, but whenever he saw Yin Lie, he felt a little out of control...

Maybe this is the destined enemy!

"His Majesty!"

Yin Lie raised his hand without hesitation and said: "The minister wants to impeach Kong Baimu for his lack of discipline..."

The voice didn't fall!

"Yu Cheng! Qin Yucheng... let's do it!"

Kong Bai finally compromised!
Yu Shicheng is usually called Yu Cheng.

Yu Zhongcheng is commonly known as Zhongcheng.

Doctor Yu Shi ranks among the three princes, and is called the deputy prime minister, also known as the assistant prime minister.

that's it.

Luanquan defeated the old master.

Yin Lie undisputedly won the staged victory in this debate.

Don't look at Yin Lie just forcing Kong Bai to change his name.

Such occasions!

The momentum of the two is tit for tat!
Yin Lie was reprimanded and renamed by Kong Bai at the beginning of the game, which meant that Yin Lie was overwhelmed and fell into a disadvantage!

The same is true!

Yin Lie is now treating him in his own way!

When he bucked the trend in the debate, he turned around and forced Kong Bai to change his name...

This is role reversal, position swap!

If Kong Bai can't think of a good countermeasure, he will regain his victory.

Then Kong Bai can only be Yin Lie's stepping stone honestly!
Upper position.

"..."

Ying Zheng raised the corners of his mouth silently, he suddenly realized that Yin Lie's unruliness could only hold him back occasionally.

The rest of the time, Yin Lie acts as his right-hand man in suppressing the crooked ministers... It's not very useful!

All around.

The princes of the empire began to whisper among themselves.

"I just underestimated this Yin-Yang family alchemist just now, but I didn't expect that he is actually quite capable!"

"This is more than just some ability. Didn't you realize that all Kong Bai's responses were predicted by the alchemist Qin Lie?"

"It seems to be true... firstly use Mohism's will of heaven and Ming Gui to introduce Kong Bai into the set, and then indirectly confirm the so-called Confucianism of heaven and man and patriarchal law and public opinion, and then criticize Confucianism for stretching too far. Finally, it introduces the contention of a hundred schools of thought, and a hundred flowers bloom. Each expresses their destiny, forming a counter-trend crush..."

"It's not simple! It seems that the Yin Yang family really has a very special character!"

"By the way, none of you feel that the name Qin Lie is a bit too familiar?"

"You want to say that the names of the Yin Yang family Qin Lie and the madman Yin Lie are very similar, right? Maybe it's just a coincidence..."

……

Experts make a move!

Just know if there is one!
Yin Lie's power, the contemporary head of the Kong family in Qufu, once again caused a very obvious change in the attitude of the princes of the empire.

They all began to look at Yin Lie with new eyes, and by the way, they also looked at the Yin Yang family seriously again.

in the crowd.

Donghuang naturally listened to all the discussions around him.

Now she can feel the great benefits of being in the same boat with Yin Lie!
and so!
Donghuang looked at Yin Lie, and in addition to the usual exclamation, this time there was something extra special.

Someone is happy...

Naturally, some people are worried.

Our Zuo Prime Minister Li Si frowned at this moment, and he found some clues from the newly promoted Yu Shi Cheng in front of him.

so similar!
The tone of voice and the way you act!
They all look so much like that extremely criminal maniac!

But Yin Lie was executed and beheaded by the emperor himself, and the changes in the sky that day were even more severe, and all the officials, princes, and the army...all could see it!
The problem is that!

The madman Yin Lie just died a few days ago!
A young alchemist with extraordinary eloquence, vision and knowledge appeared in Yin Yang's family. He was quickly promoted by the emperor to the position of deputy to the three princes: Yu Shi Cheng!
This has to make Li Siduo think...

But Li Si was thinking about it at most.

It's a big deal!

It directly involved the First Emperor...

Li Si will definitely not be the one to stir up trouble. He will have to wait and see to see what happens!
side.

Right Prime Minister Wang Wan and Guo Wei Tu Ju looked at each other. They were both ranked three princes, and neither of them had met Yin Lie before...

However, they must be familiar with the deeds of the extremely criminal lunatics who remonstrated against Qin to the death, and they have heard miracles along the way.

It is said that Yin Lie, a madman, still has the blessing of destiny!

The state captain Tu Ju and the right prime minister Wang Wan definitely didn't believe it.

as predicted.

The group of them had just left Hangu Pass and entered the Central Plains when they heard the news that the madman Yin Lie had been beheaded.

at this time.

Qin Lie, an alchemist who emerged from the Yin Yang family, was able to beat Kong Bai of the Kong family in Qufu...

The national captain Tu Ju and the right prime minister Wang Wan will definitely look at him with admiration!
As for Wang Jian, Marquis of Wucheng and Wang Ben, Marquis of Tongwu, the two father and son remained steadfast, and they seemed to be indifferent to the debate.

It's normal to think about it carefully.

The noble faction of the military and martial arts is not happy with Confucianism, and it is even more uncomfortable with Yinyang School.

Furthermore.

The thought of a general who kills on the battlefield is related to the life and death of tens of millions of Qin warriors.

Especially like Wuchenghou Wang Jian, the pillar of the imperial military, he always led hundreds of thousands of troops to go out to destroy Zhao first, and then Chu!
By comparison!

The debate between Yin Lie and Kong Bai seemed to be nothing.

of course.

Wang Jian's attitude was indifferent...

But it doesn't mean that other military generals have the same emotions.

No matter where you go, you can't help Mr. Mo's fiery temper!
"Your Majesty, I think Qin Yucheng's words about Central Plains Confucianism being so powerful...are a bit exaggerated!"

Duke He did not raise any objection to Yin Lie's rapid rise to prominence.

Above Mount Tai!

Hand-picked by the First Emperor!

No matter how reckless Mr. He is, he will never do anything mindless.

After all, just now Kong Bai responded to the situation and asked for advice, pressing harder and harder, causing the First Emperor to fall into a dilemma.

crucial moment.

It was Yin Lie who stood up in alchemist uniform and restrained Kong Bai under great pressure!

These men must have seen it.

but……

Duke He still disdains Central Plains Confucianism from the bottom of his heart!
Great Qin Shangfa!

Only Legalism is the correct way of imperial classics!

"The reason why my Great Qin was able to leave Hangu in the east and establish the Dingding Kyushu is because of the law of Shang Jun and the system of military merit titles!"

Duke Heng continued: "In my opinion, the so-called patriarchal system in the Central Plains is not as good as ours in Guanzhong... [What are the rules for ordering people to do]!"

Da Qin was an absolute military-based country.

In terms of the household registration system, it is also established in accordance with the military.

And if one person makes a mistake during the procession, the whole team will be punished!

then.

The method of sitting together was implemented in Guanzhong.

The old Qin people in Guanzhong would have no objections, everything seems to be as it should be.

War has long been engraved into the blood and marrow of the old Qin people in Guanzhong!

It is precisely because of this foundation...

Zhang Hancai, a famous general in the late Qin Dynasty, led a group of prisoners out of Hangu and almost swept through the Central Plains again.

"Old general, the military merit title system in Shang Jun's law is an undisputed weapon of war."

Yin Lie turned sideways slightly and continued: "But now the world has been unified, and the world is at peace. If we just talk about the Legalist [Regulations on what to do for the people] and the Confucian [Patriarchal Legal System], which one is higher and which is lower... I will definitely Choose the Confucian patriarchal system!”

The voice didn't fall!

The princes of the empire were in an uproar instantly!

Yin Lie just said that Confucianism can manipulate public opinion through the patriarchal system and sacrificial rituals. He stretched his hand too far. The officials felt that it was a debate, so it seemed normal to exaggerate.

As a result, Yin Lie now compares Confucianism and Legalism together and says that Confucianism is stronger...

Can Guan Zhongwu agree?
next moment.

Duke He directly said loudly: "Prime Minister Li, Qin Yucheng's promotion of Confucianism and disparagement of Legalism is going to be in our faces. You, the most accomplished Legalist in the world and the leader of the Legalist faction in the empire, don't you plan to come out and say a few words?"

Li Si: "..."

Our Prime Minister Zuo really doesn't want to get involved in the matter at hand.

But the more he tries to hide, the harder it becomes!
Yin Lie's pulling and stepping action.

Li Si was shot while lying down.

When Kong Bai saw that Yin Lie was speaking freely and was about to arouse public anger, he backhandedly started to sit back and watch!

Kong Bai wants to see... how Yin Lie will end up next!
"Cough cough!"

Li Si, the left prime minister, cleared his throat, took a step forward and said: "The [Regulations on What to Do for the People] is a military and military method specially adapted to the Qin Dynasty. In order to strengthen the country and the army, go out and unify the east. And the Confucian [Zong] The legal system] is the system that governs all the people of the Central Plains, and the two cannot be compared!"

After Li Si realized that the identity of the young alchemist in front of him was doubtful, he was doomed not to end the debate easily, so he simply started to make love.

above the temple.

It's always right to go back and forth a few times.

"Li Xiang summed it up very well."

Yin Lie thought for a while and said: "Old General Hegong, let me ask you a question. Do you know what the militaristic inertia described in the book "Admonition to Meteor Stone" means?"

"I don't even bother to decipher the meaning of the arrogant and rebellious remonstrance!"

Gong Gong waved his hand and didn't answer at all.

suddenly.

Chehou Mengwu stood up and said: "Your Majesty once ordered me to make routine preparations to refute the militaristic inertia proposed by the extreme crime fanatic. It is nothing more than to say... Daqin will inevitably fall into the quagmire of war until it collapses."

talking.

Meng Wu opened his arms fiercely, looked around and said: "However, looking at all the barbarians, who else is qualified to drag our country, Great Qin, into the quagmire of war?"

When all the princes in the empire heard this, they all chuckled.

"What Marquis Wu said is true. Our Great Qin army is unmatched. Who can stop it?"

"War! It's only natural to be rewarded for killing people and getting promoted. What kind of bullshit militaristic inertia, alarmist talk, a joke!"

"Little Alchemist Xiao, who has repeatedly mentioned the remonstrances of that extremely sinful madman, could be that he is in the same group!"

"In my opinion, this little alchemist Xiao Xiao should be taken down immediately, and then tortured severely to force out the rest of the empire!"

"Haha! I am now the Censor Cheng appointed by His Majesty, the deputy to the Three Lords, and has the power to supervise all officials. You go and torture one..."

……

There was a lot of discussion around him.

Meng Wu immediately raised his voice and said: "Now that we, the Qin Dynasty, have unified the world and are sitting on the nine states, we should send out troops to bring all the barbarian lands in the four directions into the territory of the empire! From then on, we can support the war with war, and we can continue to conquer the Star Sea. The end!"

It seems that every military general has a philosophy of supporting war with war!

however!
The ideal is full!
The reality is very skinny...

Yin Lie retorted: "First of all, let's take the Huns in the north as an example. No matter how strong the Qin army is, the Huns can always escape if they can't defeat them, right?"

"As long as the Huns' flocks have grass to eat, they can continue to produce goat milk and lambs, and they have long been accustomed to tribal migration."

"Then the Huns don't have to worry about food problems when they avoid the front of the Qin army. After all, they have endless flocks of sheep. But if the hundreds of thousands of warriors from the Qin Dynasty arrive in the north, if they don't have enough logistics supplies , Great Qin warriors can’t just eat grass and fight, right?”

"In this case, the transportation of military rations cannot be bypassed..."

"If you want to come to General Meng, you should be very clear about how much manpower and material resources it will take to transport grain and grass from Chudi in Nanjun or Linzi in Qidi to the north. Even if Guanzhong is closer to the north, one stone of grain can be transported to one-tenth of it. It’s God’s good weather.”

……

Da Qin's attack on the six kingdoms of Shandong was indeed able to support war with war.

After all, the Central Plains also belongs to an agricultural civilization.

Not enough military rations...

Snatch and search along the way, and it will last for a while.

But on the endless prairie.

The situation is quite different.

In addition to grass, the North is still grass...

Even in winter, there is only bare white land, and it is hard to find even a hair.

"Our Great Qin army will eventually be limited by the productivity of farming civilization!"

Yin Lie put his hands behind his back and said, "Even if we take a step back and say that if the Qin Dynasty attacks and destroys the Xiongnu, there will be no benefit, let alone fighting to support war!"

"But without the Xiongnu in the north, there are still Donghu, Dayuezhi, Ancient Qiang, etc., and there are also Baiyue in the south. Is it possible that the Great Qin will continue to overdraw the people of the nine states and start one after another wars of pure attrition?"

"There is no doubt! Your warlike generals inherit the martial style of our Great Qin!"

"But... in my opinion, the never-ending wheels of war are the real inertia of militarism!"

……

Conquer the North and the South!

It was definitely the direct cause of the death of the Second Emperor of Qin in history!
Yin Lie naturally wants to reverse all this...

"Ha! Alarmist!"

Meng Wu said in a deep voice: "My Great Qin destroyed Han, defeated Zhao, attacked Yan, and defeated Wei, and then won Qi and Chu in one fell swoop. The empire expanded to Kyushu, and the population more than tripled. The national power is booming and rising steadily!"

"How can it be more difficult for our Great Qin to sweep through all the barbarians in the future than to just rely on Guanzhong to go out to the east?"

"Qin Yushi, you are truly worthy of being an alchemist from the Yin Yang family. You are short-sighted and extremely ridiculous!"

"Now that we, Da Qin, can gather the strength of the nine states, we should be invincible, win every battle, and become stronger with every battle!"

……

Meng Wu showed off the national power and combat power of Da Qin on paper!

in summary!

Da Qin has indeed doubled its improvement in all aspects!
All of a sudden!
All the civil and military officials in Guanzhong are ignited with pride!

"Marquis Wu's words made my blood boil, I wish I could put on my armor and mount a horse today, and go to sweep the northern regions!"

"Hahaha! Your Majesty, this time you will be enshrined in Mount Tai, and it will probably be the key to the Northern Expedition. We all have a chance!"

"Little alchemist Xiao, dare to shout in front of me, Marquis Wu, I really don't know what to say!"

"Looking at it this way, it seems that Kong Bai is not that good! He was actually silenced by such short-sighted people!"

"The Kong family in Qufu is famous but not real!"

……

The Guanzhong Xungui faction naturally wants to make contributions the most.

A pair of princes from the Military King’s family!
It is their best benchmark!

Only by starting a large-scale battle can they become a top general family comparable to the military kings!

side.

When Kong Bai heard that some people around him instantly belittled him to nothing, he must be extremely indignant.

But when he saw Yin Lie being suppressed by Meng Wu...

He also felt that some rumors were nothing compared to seeing Yin Lie defeated with his own eyes!
On the field!

Yin Lie frowned and said: "General Meng Wu, I wonder if you know the allusion of the snake swallowing an elephant?"

Meng Wu: "Lingnan elephant?"

"Correct!"

Yin Lie took advantage of the situation and said: "The elephant in Lingnan is as big as two bulls. If a python swallows it, it will either be strangled to death or it will take at least half a year to digest it!"

Meng Wu deliberately said: "I don't think a snake can swallow an elephant..."

"Is this a question of whether a snake can swallow an elephant?"

Yin Lie knew that Meng Wu was making fun of him, so he simply pointed it out: "The Qin Dynasty swallowed up the Central Plains and occupied the Kyushu. There must be a [digestion] process of resting with the people, right? You will start a large-scale battle without stopping... Meng Wu General, let me ask you, who does Great Qin rely on to collect taxes?"

Meng Wu said with his hands behind his back: "Naturally, there are tens of thousands of Qin officials in various counties!"

"Very good. Assuming that in the early days of the war, each household in the Central Plains only had to pay [-]% of the tax, tens of thousands of Qin officials would indeed be able to collect the full amount of tax!"

Yin Lie sorted out his thoughts, and then said: "But once the Northern Expedition enters the middle stage, at least every household in the Central Plains will have to pay 36% of the tax. At that time...do you think that the [-] counties of Kyushu will only be paid by tens of thousands of Qin officials? Do you have to pay enough taxes?"

Meng Wu: "..."

"If the war continues, individual counties will inevitably have to increase taxes, and then there will be a large number of rioters and refugees!"

Yin Lie took a deep breath and roared: "So! In order to suppress the rebellious people, Great Qin needs to continuously increase the number of Qin officials. But Qin officials also need to eat food and get paid. Where will the food and salary come from? It just comes from increasing taxes..."

"Then this leads to a problem. The more the Qin Dynasty labors on expeditions, the more taxes will be increased in the Central Plains. When the increase reaches a certain level, the people will resist the taxes and chaos will arise. The army will be dispatched to suppress it, and at the same time, the number of Qin officials will be expanded. Imposition of taxes!"

"However, the army that suppressed the rebellious people and the Qin officials who doubled in size will inevitably lead to a further increase in taxes..."

"At that time! It only takes a few vicious cycles, and all the people in Kyushu will be unable to survive, and they will have no choice but to start a prairie fire and turn the whole world upside down!!"

"General Meng Wu, if this situation would result, you would still insist on fighting to the end of the star sea!?"
