Chapter 44: One strategy and three strategies, the greatest conspiracy of all time [Please collect and read]

It can be seen from the memorial sent back by Wang Jian that the situation in the south is not very good.

Even though the First Emperor had some selfish motives, publicity outweighed selfishness.

The stability of the south has far-reaching significance for the Qin State.

Not long after the Qin State unified the six kingdoms, some remnants of the six kingdoms were already seeking restoration. Coupled with the contradiction in resource distribution, it became increasingly severe, and there was a faint trend of internal troubles.

The situation of external troubles seems to be more serious than internal troubles.

During the years when the Seven Kingdoms coexisted, no matter how fierce the civil war was, foreign aggression was always resolutely fought against.

For example, Yan State pacified Donghu, Qin State destroyed Rongdi in Longxi, Zhao State fought against the Xiongnu, Qi State expelled Dongyi, etc.

No country has ever shown mercy to barbarians.

Now, the six kingdoms have been destroyed, and only Qin is left.

Then Qin should shoulder the heavy responsibility of safeguarding China.

For the First Emperor, this was not only the ambition to unify China, but also a heavy responsibility.

True.

What Zhao Hao said does make some sense.

But if the barbarians take advantage of Qin's opportunity to recuperate, think that Qin is showing weakness to them, attack the hinterland of the Central Plains, and massacre the people in the Central Plains, how will Qin stand in the world?

One step back, one step back, one step into the abyss.

Even if this expedition is difficult and dangerous and hundreds of thousands of old Qin people die in the south, we, the Qin Dynasty, will never take a step back.

Be it a foolish king or a tyrant.

All directions are guilty, but I am the one to blame.

Let me bear all the sins of Da Qin alone.

With a long sigh in his heart, Ying Zheng's eyes gradually became firmer.

He must conquer this Baiyue no matter what.

Somehow, Zhao Hao suddenly discovered that the First Emperor in front of him was different from before.

It seems that this is the real him.

A suffocatingly lonely person.

In his life, he never established a prince, named a queen, or divided the world. He suffered countless infamy. Even when he died, he was still patrolling his territory.

The better he got to know the First Emperor, the more Zhao Hao could feel the loneliness that penetrated his bones.

The so-called lonely man probably refers to the First Emperor.

"call"

After a long silence, Zhao Hao exhaled a breath and looked up at Ying Zheng's resolute face. He knew that his persuasion failed after all.

However, he did not intend to give up, so he settled for the next best thing and said, "Father, if you insist on conquering Baiyue, can you postpone it for a year or two?"

Ying Zheng said in a cold tone: "Why?"

Zhao Hao glanced at Wei Liao and found that he was calm, and then continued: "Even if the south is about to make a move, our Qin Dynasty has 300,000 troops stationed on the border, and they dare not act recklessly. During this period, we need to do four things

;

First, naturalize more Yue people as soon as possible, improve the map of Baiyue, and at the same time study the interests of various Yue people.

Second, send water workers to build the spiritual canal. It does not need to be very wide, just ten feet, as long as it can pass the small boat.

Third, the continuous small-scale wars have kept the various ethnic groups in Baiyue in a state of tension, but we just don't go deep into the mountains and forests, leaving them with a chokehold.

Fourth, study the fighting methods of the Vietnamese and concentrate doctors to solve epidemic diseases and the harm of poisons to soldiers."

At this point, he paused and said solemnly: "Doing these four things well will not only play a decisive role, but at least unnecessary casualties can be avoided!"

"Even so, what about one or two years later?"

Ying Zheng frowned and said, "We, the Qin Dynasty, can't keep dealing with the Yue people, right?"

"this"

Zhao Hao looked hesitant.

Ying Zheng glanced at him, his face became solemn, he sat upright and said, "If you have any ideas, just tell me."

"Go back to my father, I do have a plan!"

Zhao Hao cupped his hands and said: "But if we implement this strategy, we must first unleash the power of our Qin army!"

"oh?"

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows and said, "If you have any good ideas, can you tell me about them?"

"Back to my father, I just said that the barbarians are afraid of power but not moral. If you want to conquer the barbarians, you must first make them fear our great Qin!"

"The mountains in the south are rugged and broken, which is not conducive to our Qin army's formation of battle groups. Once our Qin army penetrates deep into the hinterland of the south, every time it captures a city;

The Yue people tribe who are stubbornly resisting must be exterminated to make them frightened!"

"That's right, keep talking."

"Yes, Father."

Zhao Hao nodded and continued: "As long as our Qin army makes the Yue tribe feel fear, we can follow the trend and implement a gentle policy to prevent the Yue people from sharing the same hatred!"

"Whether it is the State of Chu or our State of Qin, after conquering the land of Baiyue, they will divide administrative regions, such as the counties and counties established by our State of Qin.

But in fact, the tribes in Baiyue Land are still governed by their leaders."

"Then, this kind of autonomy is actually similar to the hereditary system of our Central Plains countries. That is, if the leader dies, the leader's son will take over."

"If the leader squeezes the tribesmen too hard, the tribesmen will rebel. In this case, even if we appease a certain tribe leader, it will not help."

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng and Wei Liao looked at each other and fell into deep thought.

This is indeed a problem.

The Chu State had long been dealing with the Yue tribe. After hundreds of years, it was unable to naturalize and govern the Yue tribe well. This was precisely because the leaders of the Yue tribe changed frequently.

You appease the tribal leader today, but tomorrow he will be slaughtered, and you have to appease the new leader again.

It's very annoying to go back and forth like this.

But it won't work if you don't comfort him.

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng came to his senses and looked up at Zhao Hao: "What can my son do?"

"Back to my father, I have three plans for you!"

Zhao Hao cupped his hands and said: "The first is to use the barbarians to control the barbarians. The second is to implement the order of favor. The third is to change the land and return it to the current people."

"this"

Ying Zheng and Wei Liao were stunned at the same time, a little confused.

Zhao Hao smiled and explained: "Using barbarians to control barbarians means using the barbarian tribes who submit to our Qin State to conquer the Yue tribes who disobey our Qin State and give certain rewards!"

"After they receive the reward, they will naturally fight bravely. In addition, they are not a local tribe and have to guard against other Yue tribes, so they will be loyal to us;

Even unite with us to fight against other Yue tribes to ensure a place to live!"

"Wonderful!"

Wei Liao gave a loud shout.

Ying Zheng's cheeks flushed with excitement, and he couldn't help but ask: "What about the grace order?"

"this"

Zhao Hao was a little hesitant, not knowing whether to speak or not.

This grace order is a big killer.

In particular, the order of favor extension under the enfeoffment system was simply the greatest conspiracy of all time.

The more you give birth to, the faster you lose.

"Just say what you have to say, why are you hesitating? Even if you say something wrong, my father will forgive you!"

Seeing Zhao Hao hesitate to speak, Ying Zheng's face suddenly turned serious.

"Hey... okay."

Zhao Hao sighed and said quietly: "This order of favor is that the court stipulates that after the death of a tribal leader, in addition to appointing an heir to succeed the leader;

The remaining sons can also divide part of the tribe's land and population, serve as small leaders, and be under the unified jurisdiction of the county governor!"

"hiss"

"hiss"

As soon as Zhao Hao finished speaking, Ying Zheng and Wei Liao took a deep breath at the same time, and their pupils shrank sharply, like a magnitude 9 earthquake.

Damn it!

What a vicious strategy!
