Qiang Qin

It is very cold in winter.

Hulala's north wind, from the vast Siberian ice sheet, all the way to the south, passing through the Altun Mountains, Gonglushui, and then across the Helan Mountains, until reaching the hinterland of Guanzhong.

The uniqueness of Chang'an City warms the people of Qin in this cold winter, and at the same time, it also warms up the tourists stranded in Chang'an one after another.

"Great Qin, the power of the upper kingdom is nothing like this!" In some public bath rest areas in Chang'an City, a few Hu merchants were lying on their stomachs with their naked bodies being rubbed vigorously by the servants. Although their skin was red from being trampled, they On his face, there was a distinct sense of relief.

"Haha, let me tell you, this time King Wu destroyed Western Chu, and the war in the Guandong area finally subsided. After this winter, I plan to open the shop to Luoyang, which is the hinterland of the Central Plains, far from the sea and Jiangdong. The distance is the closest, and the prices of silk and seashells are lower!" One of the Hu merchants obviously had a business eye, and he saw clearly where the business opportunities to make money were while chatting.

"Luoyang, that's a good place. It leads to Jingchu in the south, Haiyue in the east, and Zhaoyan in the north. Why don't we make a total proposal together and propose to the imperial court to open a branch in Luoyang."

While taking a bath, all the Hu merchants talked about their plans to make money. They didn't know that their words had already been heard clearly by the busy servants beside them.

As early as the beginning of the construction of the public bathhouse, Li Yuan instructed Li Bi, the Changan order in charge of inside information at the time, to seduce some homeless orphans, train them, and serve as service personnel in the bathhouse. This work was taken over by Yan Le Since then, it has been widely promoted.

Now, valuable information one after another is being sent from the bathrooms all over Chang'an City to the Military Intelligence Division where Yan Le is located, and the officials in charge of each division are classifying, and then stacked on Yan Le according to the level of importance. On the case table, if it is first-class confidential information.For example, the discovery of the secret place of the Huns, or other major events related to the domestic stability and economic development of Qin State.

Like today's discussion of the Hu merchants, it will be included in the discussion department, and after sorting out, it will be placed on the desk of Prime Minister Chen Ping one day later.

Chen Ping, on the other hand, must give instructions on these collected and sorted information documents within three days, how to implement them, who will implement them, and when will the results of the implementation be reported back. At the same time, the long-term impact of this matter after execution what is it.Who will conduct the final terminal assessment.

These are simple to say, but they are very trivial to do, and they are related to the coordination of various departments and links of the internal affairs. As long as there is a problem in one of them, the entire mechanism will be paralyzed.

In order to prevent losses caused by work mistakes, the Qin State has formulated a strict mechanism in evaluating performance, such as military construction, the eye-catching position of each standard weapon.All have the name of the craftsman, the date of production, and the name of the craftsman responsible for the inspection. If any quality problems are found, the responsibility of the relevant parties can be traced immediately.

This is how soldiers are made.The same is true in other aspects of Qin's internal affairs, military and other aspects. This kind of strict assessment without the slightest sympathy is exactly the legalist thought that Qin relied on, and it has always been criticized by hundreds of schools from the Kanto.After Li Yuan founded the new Qin Dynasty, this rigorous assessment system was continued.

"Our nation does not lack warmth. We only lack laws; our country does not lack manpower, but only discipline; our people do not lack hard work, but only suffer from inequality!"

When deciding to follow the laws of Qin formulated by Li Si, Li Yuan answered loudly and confidently in the face of doubts. No one knew better than him what would happen in the future.

Today, Li Yuan is the King Wu of Qin.

No one dares not to obey his orders, and no one dares not to listen to them.

The Qin State can learn from Taoism, Confucianism, Mohism, etc., but the foundation of Qin State’s governance is still the ideological theory of Legalism, which cannot be shaken.

Depose hundreds of schools and respect Confucianism.

This policy implemented in the Western Han Dynasty had such a profound influence in Chinese history that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who decided to do so was unexpected. The essence of Confucianism lies in moderation, in blurring all right and wrong, and in debating clear things. become a neutral thing.

It is undeniable that Confucianism has brought China the bearing of a great country and a history that can make the world proud. Lacking the motivation to delve into unknown things and explore unknown mysteries, they will only be immersed in their own world, dreaming of "I am the boss".

History has since changed.

Then we must not go back to the old path of feudal dynasties after a dynasty.

Every step that Qin State takes now is setting an example for future generations. Li Yuan hoped that when future generations mention Qin State one day, what they will remember is not his name, but every law, every item The system, one by one in the constant dispute, evaluation and re-evaluation of the insights obtained in the dispute.

——.

The state of Qin is undergoing changes day by day.

The same is true of the Qin State, and the same is true of the Huns.

In this extremely cold season, Li Yuan's greatest enemy, the Hun Shanyu Modun, was marching on the vast snowfield in the north of the Altun Mountains, braving the blizzard and snow.

Conquer and be conquered.

It is the eternal iron law of the grassland people. In the Spring and Autumn Period, the Xiongnu tribe was just an alliance of more than a dozen small tribes nomadic in the Hetao area. Through repeated conquests and fusions, this tribe gradually became stronger and defeated a large tribe on the grassland. Another formidable opponent, and this time, Mouton's target is the Guirong tribe.

Ghost Rong.

It was the Gaonugui Fangjiu tribe who had been attacked by Li Yuan. After this tribe was expelled from the Wuding River area by the Qin army, the three surviving tribes began to migrate to the northwest under the leadership of Wu Jinxi. In the process, they have shown extraordinary tenacity and learning ability.

In the cold and cruel climate, the Guifang tribe gradually became the leader of the alliance when interacting with more primitive and barbaric clans and tribes, relying on the knowledge they learned when they bordered the Qin State.

Shan Rong, Yi Yun, Hun Porridge, Lou Fan, Ding Ling, these nomadic peoples who once appeared in Chinese history, and finally disappeared in the long river of history, some of them were unwilling to be annexed by the Huns, and began to fight with Gui Fang The tribes merged with each other, and finally formed a Guirong tribe alliance with "white sheep" as the totem of the tribe.

certainly.The development direction of these small tribal alliances has long been far away from Monan and Mobei, and has migrated to the north of the Altun Mountains, the Irtysh River Basin, this river flowing into the Arctic Ocean has given birth to one after another on the Siberian Great Wilderness. The tribe also allowed the Aries tribe to gradually develop in a difficult environment.

It was Si Jinxi, the sorceress who was persuaded to leave by the old leader of Guifang, Jiuhou, who led the revival of the Aries Tribe.Let Da Shan Yu Maodun never forget after seeing him once, and he has grown into an excellent tribal leader.

primitive times.

The contest of strength and wisdom runs through the whole process of matrilineal society and patrilineal society.

With his brute force and mind, Mao Dun annexed one tribe after another on the grassland under his command, while Jin Xi put more emphasis on wisdom and strategy. After the trick, Jinxi used her lobbying to bring the weaker groups into her Aries alliance.

During the development of the Baiyang tribe, the Xiongnu Shanyu Maodun coveted Jinxi's beauty.In addition, the area around the Altun Mountains is already the western frontier of the Huns, and the north of the Altun Mountains is covered with vast primitive jungles. Only hunting barbarians will stay there, so.Mao Dun did not interfere with the expansion of the Baiyang tribe's power, but when he came back from Yandi, he suddenly discovered that a new opponent had emerged in the west that threatened the Huns.

With precautions, when the Qin State is conquered in the south.The Aries tribe will bring troubles to themselves, and at the same time, they also want to welcome Jin Xi, the woman he likes, back to the royal court as soon as possible.Mo Dun decided to launch a surprise attack on Gui Rong.

Snow night.

It is the best time for surprise soldiers to attack.

Mao Dun believes that after a peaceful autumn, the Guirong people have raised the cattle and sheep to be extraordinarily robust. At this time, they will shrink into the tent one by one, drinking the hot milk of cows and sheep. , dreaming of having a few more children next year, instead of being vigilant against the enemy.

This time, Mouton did not dispatch tens of thousands of string-controllers as in the past, but learned the lesson that the army was too large and chaotic when conquering Yan, which led to being defeated by the Qin army one by one. Dun didn't even inform the other affiliated tribes, and directly led a long-distance attack with [-] fine riders belonging to his headquarters.

Best loot ever.

Of course, you have to keep it to yourself, the cruel competition on the grassland, and you don't need those hypocritical mutual humility.

Under the attack of the Huns cavalry, the various tribes of Guirong were defeated. Some tribes close to Altun Mountain were the first to be wiped out. Into a bloody catastrophe.

When the news came, Wu Sijinxi, who was receiving gifts from the envoys of the tribes, was taken aback. She never expected that the Huns would be so insidious and choose to attack her in this extremely bad weather.

Zhai Sangbo.

Located at the northern foot of Altun Mountain, the Baiyang Tribe's resident.

In the dome tent.

There was a lot of noise.

Bai Guangji was dressed in furs and a small cap made of white fox fur. He stared coldly at the leaders and envoys of the Guirong tribes who were in panic. His current identity was that he had migrated from the Hexi area to the north. The head of the small tribe, which belongs to the Xiaoyuezhi people. However, when the Huns and the Qin people were fighting for control of Hexi, they decided to go north to join the Guirong tribe in order to avoid oppression.

Jin Xi managed to regain his composure, glanced at the crowd with a pale face, and asked: "The Huns are coming to invade, and all the tribes are in charge. Dare I ask: How many warriors can my tribe gather in three days? Please report them one by one." Come."

Hearing Jin Xi's question, the heads of the various ministries frowned, and no one stood up for a long time. For these small tribes, the ferocity and cruelty of the Huns made them extremely fearful. The method is too bloody, and they will not go to the Guirong tribe for refuge.

"Aren't there any men in your tribe? You are afraid and dare not fight. My Guifang tribe has had enough. This time, we will not run away or move westward. We have decided, just Here, in Zaisangbo, the great lake that raised us, we will fight to the death with the Huns!"

Jin Xi's voice was sharp and high-pitched, with a bit of excitement and a bit of pride.From Mao Dun's previous marriage proposals and this sudden attack, she has realized that even if she fled westward again, Mao Dun would not let her go. .

"Witch King, we, the Hexi Qiang tribe, are willing to fight side by side with Guifang to attack the Xiongnu!" Bai Guangji strode forward and raised his sword heavily above his head.

"Hexi Qiang, how many warriors do you have?" Jin Xi overjoyed to help Bai Guangji up. What she said just now was out of despair in her heart, and she never thought that any tribe would really respond.

"I report to the Witch King that there are [-] men from Hexi Qiang who can fight. They will arrive at Zhaisangpo in two days and wait for the Witch King's orders." Bai Guangji replied loudly.

Jin Xi nodded excitedly. In her eyes at this time, the man in front of her who looked similar to the Qin people was the kind of person she admired the most.

Reliable and loyal.

At the time of Guan Jian, you can stand up regardless of life and death. (To be continued..)
