This first emperor is awesome

"There is one song for every [-] armors, and one for every ten thousand armors. One song is a military marquis, and one is a school lieutenant. There are thirty in total."

"After three years of hard training and reorganization, the morale of the army is like a rainbow. All the soldiers of the three armies are looking forward to it, hoping to make contributions and solve problems for His Majesty."

"The iron army has been completed, but the designation has not yet been determined. This time, I would like to ask His Majesty to give you a name."

Meng Tian's tone was full of joy, and he smiled at Ying Zheng.

"The purpose for you to form this army back then was very clear, to go north and expel Woody."

"Just call the Army of the North!"

Ying Zheng pondered for a moment, then set the tone directly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the name."

Meng Tian bowed his hands to thank him, and then continued: "I wonder when Your Majesty plans to use troops against Hu Di in the north?"

Seeing Meng Tian's face full of hunger and thirst, Ying Zheng couldn't laugh or cry.

For decades, this Meng Tian still hasn't changed a bit.

As long as there is a battle, I will be very excited.

Duo Duo is a war madman!

"The road leading to the north has not yet been completed. According to the progress of the project, it will take several years."

Why didn't Ying Zheng want to take Hetao back from the Huns earlier?

It's just that the construction of Chidao has not been completed, and it is not difficult for 30 Jingjia to go north.

The difficulty lies in providing these tens of thousands of people with astronomical supplies. If there is no fast road, it will undoubtedly be more difficult than reaching the sky by relying on today's small trails and muddy roads.

30 troops, if there is no road, straight road, rail transport supplies.

If only relying on human transportation, at least two to three million civilians are required to transport it. This number is enough to drag down any powerful country.

Daqin is no exception!

Just like the 50 troops of the Southern Expedition, if they hadn't built the Chi Road, the track, the straight road, and the Lingqu, they would have dragged the Great Qin Empire to death with only human transportation.

But it is precisely because of these time-saving and labor-saving projects that only nearly a million corvees are needed to maintain a front-line division of 50 troops.

As the saying goes, before the soldiers and horses move, the food and grass go first.

In order to completely defeat the Huns, there must be perfect and excellent roads for transporting supplies.

Although all construction projects have been ordered to stop, and all corvees have been sent home.

But this does not include those criminals, who have committed a crime, of course they must be punished, otherwise what is the power of the national law?

I sent all the 70 prisoners who built the imperial mausoleum and Afang Palace to the north to build Chidao, tracks, and straight roads.

The day when the transportation line is established is the time when the Great Qin Empire will send troops to the north.

"Your Majesty, the transportation line must be unblocked, otherwise, even if you can defeat Hu Di, you will not be able to gain a long-term foothold in the north and deter Hu Di."

Of course Meng Tian understands the meaning of His Majesty's words, the material supply line is very important, even the key to determine whether a war is won or not.

"In the past, there were only 30 to 70 corvees to build the northern section, but now we have sent [-] prisoners to work in shifts day and night."

"It can be as long as a year, or as short as half a year. The transportation line in the north will be completely opened up. By then, it will be the day when Meng Qing will establish an immortal feat."

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows and said with pride.

"Your Majesty has something serious, and the eight-hundred-mile frontier is an urgent report."

Suddenly, Zhao Zhong ran in from the outside in a panic, shouting loudly while running.

Chapter 26 The barbarians dare not go south and the herdsmen dare not bend their bows to complain

"Your Majesty, the Xiongnu went south to invade the frontier. They spared the strong city of Shangjun, avoided the Yanmen Fortress, and attacked the weakly defended Taiyuan."

"The [-] defenders of Taiyuan were all killed in battle, the city fell, and there were countless casualties. The whole city mourned, and there were many extinct people, and no one even claimed the remains."

"The Huns retreated with one blow, and the guards in Shangjun and Yanmen received the news. Before they rushed to Taiyuan, the Huns had already committed a lot of blood debts and fled."

Zhao Zhong looked very sad, and wiped his tears with the corner of his clothes while talking.

"Extremely abominable."

Ying Zheng's face was ashen, and a few big words popped out of his mouth coldly.

When Meng Tian heard this, he also frowned, furious in his heart.

"Your Majesty, Hu Di comes like the wind and goes like lightning. I thought that I should be recruited as a corvee to connect the Yanzhao Great Wall with Qin and build a fortress. It can be attacked in this way, and it can be defended in retreat. This move will be a meritorious service."

This idea has been brewing in his mind for many years, Meng Tian took this opportunity to remonstrate.

"Although Mengqing's method is feasible, it is not a perfect solution."

"The Great Wall fortresses were built in Yan, Zhao, and Qin dynasties, but even so, Hu Di relied on the advantages of Qingqi's good deeds, and waited for opportunities to find weaknesses."

"It starts from Didao in the west and reaches Liaodong in the east. Although the Great Wall fortress has been built in most places, it is still a huge project to connect all these places together."

"The corvée required is worth millions, costing money and damaging people's strength. Is it really worth it?"

"I succeeded to the throne at the age of 13, worked hard to govern, and followed the grand ambitions of my ancestors."

"Destroy Han and Zhao first, then defeat Wei and Chu, pacify Yan and Qi, and unite Liuhe."

"Sweep the princes with the sword, flog the world, patrol the world, and all the people bow their heads."

"The man who built a boat of 50 buildings, Nanping, a wild land of Baiyue, passed on the teachings of the king, and molded the fertile soil of ritual and music."

"Since the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, the Hetao area has been the birthplace of the Huaxia Ming Dynasty, and it can be called the ancestral land."

"The extreme western barbarians invaded, and Fuhao defeated the extreme western barbarians in Hetao and defended the dignity of China."

"Since the tragic death of King You of Zhou at the hands of Quan Rong, the world's rituals and music have collapsed, and benevolence, righteousness and morality have fallen."

"The Zhou Dynasty survived in name only, and the princes attacked each other to expand their territory."

"At a time when China is in turmoil, the Xiongnu stole the ancestral land of China to enrich their strength."

"I will reshape the universe, completely integrate the fragmented land of China, and end the era of princes sitting on their fiefs and peeking at the monarchy."

"The Great Qin Empire rises slowly from the ruins of the flames of war."

"The era when foreign races went south to invade China is gone forever."

"Under the Great Qin Iron Cavalry, one will either prostrate himself and become a vassal, or the country will be destroyed."

Ying Zheng stood up and walked slowly towards Meng Tian.

His voice was extremely resonant, and every word revealed nobility and strength.

"Your Majesty, I invite you to fight."

Meng Tian was also full of emotions, and bowed his hands to Ying Zheng.

"Don't worry, let the Huns live on for another year or so!"

"After the completion of the straight road, the straight road, and the track leading to the north, I hope that Meng Qing can lead the northern army to solve the war in the north once and for all."

"We want to beat them so hard that they won't dare to go south to offend Qin, and we'll kill them so that they won't show any disrespect to Qin."

"I hope that one day the Hu people dare not go south to graze horses, and the soldiers dare not bend their bows to complain."

"These 30, the most elite soldiers of the Great Qin Empire, will all be handed over to Meng Qing."

Standing in front of Meng Tian, ​​Ying Zheng stared at Meng Tian with deep eyes, patted his shoulder and said in a deep voice.

"Chen Mengtian, I dare not bear His Majesty's grace even if I die."

"If you can't take back the ancestral land of Hetao, if you can't kill the Hu people who are terrified, I am willing to use this to kill the northern pass of Daqin forever, and never let Hu Di cross the south of Yinshan Mountain on a single horse."

Meng Tian's tone was firm and decisive.

"I believe in you."

"Meng Qing is the number one warrior in China, who in the world will compete with him?"

"Hu Di, how can he be invincible?"

Ying Zheng said with a smile, making no secret of his trust and appreciation for Meng Tian.

"Your Majesty, it is not difficult to defeat the Xiongnu and take back Hetao."

"But if you want to solve the Beiguan border problem once and for all, it is really not an easy task."

"North of the Yin Mountain, the weather is bad, the land is barren, the birds and beasts are extinct for a hundred miles, and there is no human habitation for thousands of miles."

"Hu Di in the north all live by grazing herds, their whereabouts are erratic, and they have nowhere to go when they want to cut weeds and roots."

"Deep into the vast desert, the temperature is extremely hot during the day, and extremely cold at night."

"This is not the more deadly key point. If a single army goes deep into the desert, it is very easy to lose its way, and the whole army is in danger of being wiped out."

"If Yanzhao Great Wall and Great Qin are connected together, if Hu Di in the north wants to invade the border, it will be even more difficult."

"Even if it chooses to detain the weak troops, it will need to pay several times the casualties before the surprise attack can be successful."

"Moreover, the Great Wall Fortress is not only a defensive project, but also an outpost for the Great Qin to train and march north."

"National strength gathers troops, the whole army goes northward, supplies are replenished, and the soldiers who turn around are dispatched to benefit the land."

"The country is weak and the troops are reduced, the city is strong and the pass is strong, the bow is strong and the crossbow is strong. With the barrier of natural fortresses, it is not difficult to defend and retreat the enemy."

"So I still feel that building the Great Wall is to build an immortal foundation for the Great Qin."

"Your Majesty, please learn from me."

Meng Tian didn't want to argue with His Majesty, but as a courtier, he should report his interests and give good advice to repay the king's kindness.

"Mengqing, would you build a wall in your back garden? One day, the grassland will become Daqin's horse farm. Even if Daqin wants to build the Great Wall, it will only be built in the galaxy."

Of course Ying Zheng understands Meng Tian's thoughts and concerns, if he doesn't have the consciousness of integrating the future, maybe he would not hesitate to accept Meng Tian's advice.

After all, this is indeed a good thing that is effective and beneficial for thousands of years.

But with the memory of thousands of years in the future, Ying Zheng's vision has already surpassed his previous self.

Huns?

Donghu?

Or the barbarians of the West?

These are not Daqin's opponents. In Yingzheng's eyes, they are just a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

The sea of ​​stars is the journey of the Great Qin Empire, and these blue star aliens have only two paths to go.

Either serve the Great Qin Empire, add bricks and build tiles, and survive.

Either become an enemy of the Great Qin Empire, destroy the country, and become another pile of white bones under the iron cavalry of the Great Qin Empire

Of course, some alien races are not worthy of being Qin people, but can only be reduced to slaves like Japanese slaves, and their descendants will be slaves forever.

Meng Tian was a little confused when he heard His Majesty's words.

Is my heart too small?

Is your pattern too narrow?

Or is it that my brain is not working well, and I can't keep up with His Majesty's rhythm?

The prairie that Hu Di has occupied for thousands of years is the back garden. Since ancient times, only His Majesty has been there, right?

What's more important is to build the Great Wall in the sea of ​​stars?

Is this what people should do?

Meng Tian thought about it for a while, but he didn't even think about it, how can people build the city wall to the sky?

This is simply impossible, right?

If this is the case, I am afraid that only the gods can do it, and it is definitely beyond the reach of human beings.

Chapter 27 Anyone who dares to stop me will ask if the sword in my hand agrees

"Your Majesty, I understand."

Meng Tian forcibly swallowed his doubts, and bowed his hands honestly.
