Chapter 148 Rule of Law
Chapter 148 Rule of Law
"Guanzhong is safe and closed. When it comes to conquering the world, it is a natural barrier, giving Great Qin countless opportunities to make a comeback. However, when it comes to governing the world, it will become a natural obstacle to Great Qin's decrees and commercial circulation.
If we overthrow Da Qin in the future and seize Guanzhong, we need to think and operate from the whole world, not just play in Guanzhong! "
Liu Hua pointed at the map and said, "In the future we will set up capitals, which you can also understand as special cities under the direct jurisdiction of our central government. These cities will be taken care of by our policies and resources, and the first of them is Luoyang! Luoyang is in the world. The position of confidants and improving the status of this place will help us grasp the situation in the world.
At the same time, two urban circles were formed in Chang'an and Luoyang, making Guanzhong and the Three Rivers region resonate.
The second is Yanjing. Setting Yanjing as the companion capital will help us develop the Northeast Plains and guard against the Huns and other barbarians. Moreover, Yanjing has the advantage of "resting on Juyong in the north, standing against Taihang in the west, connecting mountains and seas in the east, and overlooking the Central Plains in the south." Unique geographical advantages.
One is the political center, one is the economic center, and one is the military center, forming the regional advantages of different regions. "
"Listen to my lord, Luoyang and Yanjing are not the only ones to accompany you like this!" Guo Jia was the first to wake up from the blueprint drawn by Liu Hua and asked Liu Hua with a serious expression.
"Yes!" Liu Hua nodded, looked at everyone and said, "But where do you think the limit of our rule is?"
"The limit of domination..." After hearing Liu Hua's words, Xun Xi smiled and said nothing. She knew that Liu Hua was opening everyone's eyes, and it was difficult for everyone to answer for a while.
Because they have never considered this issue, or in other words, since they saw the ancestor dragon unified the world, there is no limit to where it comes from. It is clear that in the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers.
"But the army!" Zhang Liang reacted immediately and said.
Liu Hua nodded and said, "Any place where the army can reach in three months is the limit of our influence, and any place where food and grass can be transported in three months is the limit of our rule.
The only way to improve the capacity of grain and grass transportation is to improve transportation efficiency.
So far, I have only found three ways, one is to build roads, the other is to build canals, and the third is to transport by sea! "
Hearing Liu Hua's words, the others' faces showed a bit of surprise, and they understood why Liu Hua was so obsessed with building roads when he was in Youzhou. Most of Liu Hua's advisers were responsible for road construction when they were in Youzhou.
"The Qin Dynasty actually did a good job in building roads and canals, but Qin Shihuang was too anxious and wanted to complete the century-old project in his lifetime. The end result was that the people were overwhelmed and the whole world rebelled." Liu Hua said, "If it were me, I would Plan according to a century-old project.”
After hearing Liu Hua's words, everyone was relieved, but they were afraid that Liu Hua would be like Qin Shihuang.
Qin Shihuang built several wonders that pushed the whole world to rebel. Now Liu Hua wants to build roads and canals, which sounds like a wonder project.
Of course, in order to prevent everyone from paying too much attention to the endless things like this century-old infrastructure project, Liu Hua proposed a discussion on "Criticizing the Inheritance of Qin Law". For a time, all the attention of Liu Hua's subordinate Wenwu was They were all attracted to this.
Because Liu Hua's actions must be closer to Qin's law, but Liu Hua started his career by opposing Qin, and proposed to inherit Qin's law, even if it was a critical inheritance, it was a big deal for the people of the whole world. A tsunami of ideas.
"My lord, do you want to inherit the laws of the Qin Dynasty?" Fang Xuanling was a disciple of Legalism in this life. When Liu Hua raised this issue, he confirmed with gleaming eyes.
For Fang Xuanling, who was born in Legalism, the practice of Legalism in the Qin Dynasty seemed to have definitely failed as the Qin Dynasty caused a vigorous peasant uprising.
But he didn't expect that Liu Hua would still follow Legalism after defeating Da Qin. Fang Xuanling was very excited. "You have also seen the chaos in the world. If the world loses the constraints of laws and regulations, it will bring about a chaotic society. In order to stabilize such a society, we need laws to restrain it! It means governing the country according to law." Liu Hua said.
"No!" When Fang Xuanling heard Liu Hua's words, she was naturally very excited and said, "I don't know what the master's standard is."
Fang Xuanling naturally understood that it was impossible to copy all the laws of the Qin Dynasty, unless Liu Hua wanted the Kingdom II to perish.
Therefore, Liu Hua needs to set standards and criticize the laws of Qin Dynasty, instead of accepting them all!
"It's not like I'm studying Qin's law, or I'm just setting a few standards. The first law is the minimum standard of morality. There is no need to set the law to a level that ordinary people may not be able to do, at least we may not be able to do it. Just stop making laws.”
"I understand!" Fang Xuanling nodded and said, "Zigong's redemption was definitely not the original intention of the legal family."
Liu Hua nodded and continued, "The second hope is to follow heavy punishments for serious crimes and light punishments for misdemeanors, especially those that damage people's bodies, and try to change them to reform through labor. After all, punishments are not designed to punish other people's bodies, but to transform the minds of criminals. , so that they can start over."
In fact, labor reform is really useful. As long as you pay part of the food, it can have several times the effect of corvee labor.
Fang Xuanling glanced at Liu Hua suspiciously after hearing Liu Hua's words, and finally said: "My lord, be kind."
Everyone present knew that Liu Hua liked to build various projects, and his hobbies were exactly the same as those of Qin Shihuang.
It’s just that Qin Shihuang’s biggest hobby is his personal figures, Afang Palace and Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum. Afang Palace has never been seen in later generations, but Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum Terracotta Warriors and Horses must not have been seen by no one. In ancient times, after completing these, Qin Zhidao and Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum had to be built. The number of laborers used in the Great Wall probably reached a rather terrifying scale.
The things Liu Hua likes to build are more roads and water canals that can bring convenience to the people. Compared with the two, Liu Hua's hobby is more acceptable.
It's just that Liu Hua's construction projects are basically in charge of food, while Da Qin's labor is basically compulsory.
Therefore, the people were very happy to carry out the project carried out by Liu Hua in Youzhou, because the people knew how to calculate an account. If they ate an extra morsel of public grain during the slack period, they would have one morsel less of their own grain.
Moreover, the public food is heavy in salt and oil, and occasionally you can eat chicken, which is at least much more delicious than the food in your own home.
Therefore, recruitment was held in Liu Hua's territory, and the people actively participated.After all, the common people who eat the government have always been very active, and many of the most dangerous tasks are done by captives and aliens.
The people who come here to work are hard labor rather than dangerous work, which is why they are happy to come here.However, Liu Hua knows that labor costs will definitely rise in the future, and he needs to take precautions to solve part of the labor problem.
Letting these criminals and prisoners do hard labor is much kinder than mutilating their bodies.
Liu Hua said: "As for the third article, any laws promulgated in the future need to consult the people's opinions. Because it concerns the people of the world, the news must be released a year in advance to consult the people's opinions. I plan to inherit the Qin law. I spread the news just to see what specific opinions everyone has on Qin Fa."
Of course, the words are to consult the people's opinions, but in fact, it is up to you to decide whether to listen or not.
