Great Qin Emperor

Chapter 456 Destruction of the Huns (Part [-])

Li Mu thought for a while, and said, "Your Majesty, I think that Daqin is full of talents, and they are all talents who can stand alone. However, I think it is better for the crown prince to go. If I am not wrong, this is the last battle of the largest Qin Dynasty." War, prince, the future of Daqin, letting the prince lead the army will be of great benefit to the future of Daqin."

Qin Shihuang stood up, bowed to Li Mu, and said, "General Li, I thank you again! This time, I am not thanking you as an emperor, but as a father! You gave such a great opportunity to Fu Su, the general is the hero of our Great Qin! He is the benefactor who helped Su!"

This battle will be the first large-scale use of troops abroad in the history of China. It is of great significance. Any general would dream of getting this opportunity. However, Li Mu gave it to Fusu. No matter how hard he puts it, his good intentions cannot be overstated. .

Li Mu hurriedly knelt down and said: "The emperor's words are serious, this is the duty of a minister."

Qin Shihuang said: "Fusu, please get up General Li." The reason why he didn't help him personally was to ask Fusu to thank him.

Fusu responded, stepped up to help Li Mu, and thanked each other with a salute: "General Li's perfect virtue, Fusu dare not forget, but Fusu is young and has not led an army before, so he might disappoint the general."

Li Mu said very reassuringly: "The prince is shrewd and has a deep understanding of the art of war. Li Mu is far behind. It's just that the prince has no experience in commanding large armies. It doesn't matter. I believe that the prince will do well. I believe that after this battle, the Great Qin Not only will there be one more general who can fight well, but there will also be an extra emperor who is both civil and military.

"General Xie, Fusu must work hard!" Fusu thanked each other.

Qin Shihuang nodded and said: "Since this is the case, I will accept the general's invitation and the crown prince will take over for you." Walking to the map, pointing to the map, he said: "I want to divide the army into two groups, and the left army will be led by Han Xin. Starting from the land of Shanyu, directly attacked the Shanyu Wangting, annihilated the main force of the Huns in the Wangting, and took down the Shanyu Wangting. The right-hand army was led by Fusu, starting from the old place of Donghu, going north all the way, going straight to Langjuxu Mountain, and annihilating the Huns. , take down Langjuxu Mountain."

"Okay, okay!" There was a burst of applause.

Wei Liao was very excited and said: "Your Majesty, Liao Zi thinks that the Xiongnu will be doomed by using troops like this!"

Zhou Chong reminded: "Your Majesty, it is actually not difficult to defeat the Xiongnu in this battle. The difficulty lies in how to govern the Huns."

Qin Shihuang was very interested and said: "Excuse me, Mr. Zhou, do you have a clever plan?"

Zhou Chong smiled and said: "The emperor is serious. There is no clever plan, but there is one thing to care about. Zhou Chong was thinking that the Huns are different from other peoples. They are fierce and good at fighting. They are deep in the north of Mobei. Chong thought that the strategy of using the barbarians to control the barbarians could be adopted."

"Using barbarians to control barbarians, good!" Qin Shihuang became more interested, and said, "Mr. Zhou, please be more specific."

Zhou Chong continued: "One is to adopt the strategy of division and disintegration. For those Hu people who take refuge in Daqin, we must treat them with courtesy and let them know that as long as they don't go against Daqin, they will live a good life. For those who oppose Daqin People, resolutely attack."

Qin Shihuang clapped his hands and praised: "Benevolent and powerful, good means. Mao Dun asked me to repair his wife's tomb, I think this matter can be put to good use. Li Si, your article is well written, just write an epitaph."

Li Si took the order and said, "Follow the order."

Qin Shihuang continued: "I inscribed this tablet myself, and then sent skilled craftsmen to repair it. It is even possible to hold a ceremony and call all the Hu people in Xianyang, so that they can witness with their own eyes how Daqin treats Hu people well."

Fu Su smiled and said: "Father, my son is bold to make wild guesses, and Mao Dun will definitely be grateful when he finds out."

Qin Shihuang nodded and said: "That's the reason. It's just that he is grateful, but he won't surrender to Da Qin. This battle is inevitable. What I'm doing is not to make Mo Dun grateful, but to let the barbarians know that Da Qin Treat them well."

"Your majesty is wise!" Han Fei stammered, "The barbarian will definitely make a good story, and the hostility towards Daqin will be much less."

Qin Shihuang smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou, please tell me."

Zhou Chong responded and said: "The second way is to move the Xiongnu inland and let them move to the vicinity of the frontier fortress. Then divide the Huns into several parts and leave a small number of troops for them."

Fu Su smiled and said: "Mr. Zhou, you are really sinister. The Huns are divided into several parts, and they are not subordinate to each other. They cannot be twisted into a single rope, and their strength cannot be concentrated, so they have to listen to Da Qin."

Qin Shihuang praised: "This method is good, let's do it like this. Not only the Huns can deal with it like this, but other Huns can also do the same."

After the Western Han Dynasty defeated the Huns, the Huns moved inward, and within a few years they integrated into Chinese society and became a member of China.Those Xiongnu nobles gave the surname Liu, and a large part of the current Liu surnames are descendants of the Huns.

There is no objection to this approach.

Qin Shihuang looked at Li Si and said after a while, "Li Si, you have been with me for a long time, haven't you?"

Li Si replied: "Going back to the emperor, I am honored to be in a prosperous age, and I am fortunate to follow the emperor."

Qin Shihuang smiled and said: "You are a small official in Shangcai. You are unwilling to grow old and die among the people. That's why you worship Xunzi as your teacher and practice the king's art. After you have completed your studies, you look at the world and think that only the Great Qin can rule the sea. Now you have arrived in Xianyang. Follow me by my side. Follow me all these years, fight south and north, fight east and west, suffer a lot, and finally complete the great cause and unify the country. After that, I made you the prime minister. Over the years, you have devoted yourself Do your best and make your own contribution to the stability of Daqin."

Li Si didn't know Qin Shihuang's intentions, and said: "I don't dare to bother the emperor with a little effort."

Qin Shihuang went on to say: "It's not easy for you to become a prime minister from a small official like you. You can be called a legend. You are also old, just like me. You have hair on your sideburns and are tired. You can rest."

The implication is very clear, that Li Si is to retire from his old age and take up politics, that is to say, he will be dismissed.Although Li Si was unwilling, but the words had come to this point, he had no choice but to put forward, saying: "It is my luck that I have the honor to follow the emperor. I am old, tired, and lack of energy. I ask the emperor to grant me the favor." Say goodbye to politics."

Qin Shihuang was very satisfied with Li Si's cooperation, and said: "Well, it has been hard for you these years. I will give you ten thousand taels of gold, a beautiful house, and thousands of acres of fertile land. Take a good rest."

Li Sixie said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Qin Shihuang looked at Xiao He and said, "Xiao He, from now on, you will take over from Li Si to manage government affairs. Cao Shen and Chen Ping will assist you."

The three lead the decree.

Looking at Qin Shihuang with gorgeous hair, Zhou Chong understood very well that he was running out of time, and Qin Shihuang was arranging funeral arrangements, and he put the people who are useful and trusted by Fusu into important positions, and his intentions were very painstaking.

"Mr. Zhou, those who followed me to conquer the world with you have all rested, but you can't rest yet, this time I have to ask you to assist the prince in handling military affairs." Qin Shihuang looked at Zhou Chong and said.
