When I was in Qin Dynasty, I lost contact with the wave

"Map!"

Lu Buwei let out a yell, and a tall servant and Gai Nie brought up a huge map made of sheepskin and laid it flat in the hall. It marked every city and every pass on the land of Qin State. Even every river and every mountain.

Lu Buwei looked at the map west of Hangu Pass and fell into deep thought.

The reason why the Weihe Plain, the core land of the Qin State, is called the land of Guanzhong is because there are natural terrain barriers on all sides of this land, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and relying on these unique natural barriers, four unbreakable pass.

In the land of Guanzhong, there is Xiaoguan in the north, which can resist the Hu people; Wuguan in the south, which can suppress Jingchu; Sanguan in the west, which can reject Bashu; and Hangu in the east, which cannot be opened.

The famous generals of the Great Qin Dynasty are like a cloud of warriors, coupled with the natural danger of Hangu, this is why they are not afraid of joining forces again and again.The Qin people and successive Qin kings also firmly believed that Hangu Pass would keep all foreign enemies out of the pass, but this kind of trust seemed to be too much, so that they ignored many things.

For example, Pu Banjin mentioned by Zhang Ji.

Lu Buwei was born in a businessman, and he has no serious school inheritance, so he has learned a lot, whether it is Taoism, Mohism, Confucianism, Legalism, or Yinyang school and peasant school, even the knowledge of elementary school such as Fang Jijia. Naturally, the knowledge of military strategists will not be missed.

To be a Prime Minister in the Six Kingdoms, one is good at diplomacy, or has a good reputation, or is good at governing the country, as long as one has these characteristics, coupled with the appreciation of the king, one can be a Prime Minister.

But it's different in Qin!

Qin people favored martial arts, and the military merit system under Shang Yang's reform made anyone in Qin need to rely on military merit to obtain status and rewards.

Shang Yang himself once seized the land of Hexi in a military chariot, and Zhang Yi even merged the land of Bashu in the west. He opened Xihe in the north and took Shangyong in the south. Gan Mao, Wei Ran, Fan Ju, Cai Ze and other prime ministers of the Qin State also have military exploits handed down from generation to generation.

Therefore, Lu Buwei naturally studied the military theory deeply.

He stood in front of the map and paced slowly, holding a thin bamboo stick in his hand, thinking about the feasibility of the strategy in Zhang Jixin.

His eyes fell on the mother river that gave birth to the whole of China. The raging Yellow River is also a barrier in Guanzhong, but the Yellow River is turbulent, and there is Pubanjin that can be used as a ferry.

According to the marks on the map, this place is flat and the water is long and calm, making it an excellent place to cross the river.

If it is really according to what Zhang Jixin said, the main force of the joint vertical force feigned an attack at Hangu Pass to hold back the main force of the Qin army, and then sent a large army to bypass Pubanjin, smuggle across the Yellow River, and directly attack the capital of Qin Xianyang... Then the Qin State will really be destroyed The country is in danger!

A layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on Lu Buwei's back!
Different from the capitals of the six kingdoms in Shandong, their capitals are tall and deep, and are the strongest cities in the country, but Xianyang is only magnificent, it has no walls!
The early Xianyang City was based on the "Yique Palace" in Qin Xiaogong's time, and it only had the palace city, and did not form a real outer city. At best, it only had an attached country that expanded westward.

King Huiwen of Qin once built the Outer City, but at that time, the population of Qin State increased rapidly. As the capital of Qin State, the population of Xianyang grew more rapidly. It was far from keeping up with the speed of expansion, so it was ordered to stop.

Coupled with the pruning of large palaces such as Xianyang Palace and Ganquan Palace, the tall inner city walls pruned by the palaces also played a protective role. Therefore, the Qin kings of all dynasties simply "the palace is its own city, and the long-term work is stable, so it is not necessary to build a big city of Xianyang. ".

But if there is an enemy intrusion, although the inner city walls of these palaces can play a protective role far better than the outer city, they may not be able to capture the inner city with high walls and deep pools, but the people and the soldiers at the bottom will not be able to capture it. Know.

They will only think that Xianyang has been captured and Qin has been defeated. When the army's morale is in chaos, the Qin army will really be defeated and the country will be wiped out in a single battle.

Lu Buwei took a deep breath, suppressing the panic in his heart.

As Daqin Xiangbang, he must calmly think about countermeasures instead of panicking because of things that haven't happened yet.

Moreover, the worst is not yet in sight.

Qin still has time to prepare in advance, and has more time to gather enough military rations to support a big battle, recruit more soldiers and start training, and can also deploy defense lines in advance.

As for the young man named Zhang Ji, Lu Buwei snorted lightly.

At least the young man named Zhang Ji had some conscience, knew how to stand, and passed this important information back to the startled salamander, which was worthy of Luo Wang's protection and the legacy of his ancestor Zhang Zi.

Many senior executives in Luo Wang have raised doubts, why Luo Wang spends so much time protecting a young man who has not shown the slightest talent, is it because he has been recognized by Zhanlu, the sword of benevolence?
At first, Lu Buwei himself didn't understand.

But even if he ordered the withdrawal of the startled salamanders and those snare killers, no one obeyed this order. A few old guys at the top of the snare net went to Xianyang and Lu Buwei to explain why they took so much trouble to protect Zhang Ji.

Because the founder of the net was none other than Zhang Ji's ancestor, Zhang Yi, the Wu Xinjun of the Great Qin Dynasty.

No matter who the successor of Luowang is, he must not reveal that the founder of Luowang is Zhang Yi, and must protect Zhang Yi's descendants in return.

This is the secret order given by King Qin Huiwen to the leader of Luowang, in order to repay the Prime Minister who has devoted all his efforts to Qin.

And concealing such a thing is not to forget Zhang Yi's meritorious deeds, but Qin Huiwen King believed that there were too many murders in Luo Wang's hands. Future generations may bring endless killings and disasters.

Now it seems that Zhang Yi's descendants are at least worthy of the kindness of protection given by King Qin Huiwen back then, and the manpower and material resources spent in the trap are worth it after all.

Just when Lu Buwei was feeling emotional, Ying Zheng, who was listening to Lu Buwei's analysis of the situation of the alliance, had a light that ordinary people could not detect.

This opportunity...seems to be in Xinzheng too?

PS: The plot of Qin State is over with these two pieces. After all, there is still a long time before the fifth joint vertical, and this is just to explain the position and movement of the startled salamander. By the way, I will explain why Luo Wang pays attention to Zhang machine and protect Zhang Ji.

Then, the last time Yan Lingji had a sombre moment... 404 disappeared, so she probably couldn't let it go.So I restrained myself for a few days, and then I was going to start the story of the trendy banshee tomorrow.
