As an emperor, he naturally understood these things in his heart.

In terms of overall national strength, Great Qin is definitely enough to overlook all countries.

After all, the Great Qin has many fierce generals, and there are also imperial cavalry in command, so its combat power is naturally unrivaled.

However, due to many reasons, Daqin could never send a large number of troops to the border. After all, the country would be too empty.

Therefore, there must be losses when sending troops. Ying Zheng also knows it.

But in the current situation, if Daqin just sits idly by and ignores it, it will appear too weak.

After all, the Xiongnu had already attacked directly. It can be said that they slapped Qin in the face blatantly. How could a great country suffer such humiliation without making a sound.

While Yingzheng was thinking about it, Yinglan's voice sounded again.

[Generally speaking, it is not impossible to send troops now, but the losses may be heavy. 】

[However, if the dispatch of troops can be postponed for a few months, then it may be possible to crush the Huns and subdue them directly! 】

Hearing this, Ying Zheng's pupils shrank suddenly, and he was even more shocked.

Crushing the Huns?

Why can such a degree be achieved after delaying the dispatch of troops for several months?

Could it be that this kid has some clever plan?

Thinking about it, Ying Zheng's eyes fell on Ying Lan expectantly, "Lan'er, what do you think if you postpone sending troops for a few months as a father?"

Chapter 41 I want to see what kind of enchantment soup that waste material made to confuse His Majesty

Ying Lan shrank slightly.

【I go!As soon as I finished thinking about my father, I said it. 】

[So outrageous? 】

【Father can't hear my heart, can he? 】

Thinking about it, Ying Lan stared at Ying Zheng with a pair of eyes, looking very suspicious.

Hearing this, Ying Zheng was also a little nervous, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his eyes were slightly erratic looking away, looking a little guilty.

【how can that be possible? ! 】

[I'm really getting more and more sensitive!Even such outrageous things can be imagined. 】

But immediately, Ying Lan dismissed this idea again.

Hearing this, Ying Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression remained calm.

"If the dispatch of troops is postponed for several months, I don't see anything special about it." Ying Lan continued to play dumb.

However, Ying Zheng ignored these remarks and waited for Ying Lan's next voice.

[Since the father thought of delaying it, he must have linked the dispatch of troops with the planting of sweet potatoes. 】

Ying Zheng was stunned.

How did you get involved with sweet potato planting again?

Does it have much to do with this war?

[If the cultivation of sweet potatoes is promoted as soon as possible, planted in large quantities, and then sold, the national strength of Daqin will definitely be greatly improved. 】

[With more funds, more soldiers and horses can be recruited and more iron cavalry can be trained. 】

[And if this sweet potato is used well, the benefits obtained will be unimaginably huge, and the number of cavalry will definitely skyrocket by then! 】

[Furthermore, there are sweet potatoes, so there is no need to worry about food and grass during battle. 】

[And relying on the sweet potato, the iron cavalry equipment can also be improved, so that the combat power can reach an extremely strong level! 】

[In this way, Daqin will have stronger soldiers and stronger horses, and its combat power will not be a little bit higher than it is now. 】

[Mere Xiongnu, can that be called a problem? 】

Hearing this trick, Ying Zheng's pupils widened, and the shock in his heart became stronger and stronger.

Use sweet potatoes to transfer food to wealth and wealth to support soldiers!

As a result, the military strength has reached a point where it is much stronger than it is now!

This strategy is wonderful!

Savoring Ying Lan's strategy, Ying Zheng couldn't help but nodded slightly.

Immediately he spoke, his eyes fell on Yinglan, "Lan'er, it's okay if I don't know, my father will tell you the purpose of postponing the dispatch of troops for a few months."

Ying Lan nodded slightly, "Father, please tell me!"

Ying Zheng didn't hesitate, and said directly, "It's thanks to this sweet potato that the delay of several months can be effective!"

"In this short period of time, we will plant these sweet potatoes, sell them for money, and then use the money to raise soldiers! This will increase the national strength of Great Qin!"

"And the yield of sweet potatoes is so high, if they are sold well, the profits will definitely be huge!"

"As long as there is enough money, Daqin's troop strength will definitely increase to a huge level! It is by no means comparable to what it is now."

"If you send troops again at that time, wouldn't this mere Huns be captured!"

Ying Zheng replied, looking at Ying Lan with a faint smile on his lips.

After hearing this strategy, Ying Lan's pupils shrank slightly.

Without hesitation, he directly cupped his hands and said, "Father is wise!"

[Father is worthy of being Father!Really thoughtful! 】

[The sweet potato has just been obtained, and it has already thought of the issue of raising soldiers, which is really amazing! 】

On the other hand, there was a faint smile on the corner of Ying Zheng's mouth.

This is all thanks to you, Lan'er.

But it's cool to hear that compliment!

······

After leaving Yinglan's palace, Yingzheng went straight back to the palace where the memorial was reviewed.

As soon as he sat down, he directly ordered: "Call Li Si!"

"Yes!" The eunuch cupped his hands, and then stepped back quickly.

Soon, Li Si came to the palace, walked quickly to Yingzheng, cupped his hands and said: "My minister sees Your Majesty!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng slowly closed the memorial in his hand, "No need to be polite!"

Immediately, he turned serious, and his eyes fell on Li Si, "Li Si, I have something for you to do, you have to do it well!"

"Please speak, Your Majesty!" Li Si cupped his hands and bowed slightly.

"Recently, the widow has sent Lan'er a very important task, you go and assist him to complete it." Ying Zheng ordered.

Upon hearing this order, Li Si frowned suddenly, "Young Master Lan?"

Ying Zheng nodded, "That's right."

"That's impossible!" Li Si shook his head again and again, his face also very solemn.

Ying Zheng could understand his reaction.

After all, Yinglan's reputation is there, and she is extremely unpopular.

As for Li Si's status as prime minister, his status was extremely noble.

Even ordinary officials would definitely avoid Ying Lan as much as possible, let alone assist him.

Li Si, who had such a distinguished status, was naturally even more unwilling to take over this job.

But he was not in a hurry, his eyes fell on Li Si quietly, "The widow has ordered, you say no?"

As soon as these words came out, Li Si frowned, "Of course I dare not."

Seeing this, Ying Zheng sighed softly. He naturally knew that Li Si didn't dare to disobey his orders.

But if he forced it, then Li Si would definitely not do his best.

This would be counterproductive, not to mention helping Ying Lan, it might even cause conflicts, which would actually be a disservice to Ying Lan.

"Li Si, this matter is of great importance to Daqin, and I will never wrong you if I ask you to help Lan'er." Ying Zheng still persuaded him patiently.

He wasn't fooling Li Si.

He knew how much this sweet potato would help Daqin. Even if Li Si was the prime minister, it would definitely be out of character for him to do this.

Li Si looked solemn, "If your Majesty said someone else, the humble official might still believe it, but if it was said that it was just luck, the humble official would still remain skeptical."

"Even if you dote on Young Master Lan, His Majesty shouldn't be like this."

Hearing this, Ying Zheng was a little dumbfounded.

It turned out that Li Si felt that the widow wanted to push him into Lan'er's hands, and that's why he reacted like this?

But in Li Si's eyes, Ying Zheng really doted on Ying Lan.

And still very fond of it.

When Young Master Lan said he didn't know before, Ying Zheng was not only happy, but also praised him loudly.

This level of doting only shocked Li Si, and even felt that Ying Zheng was a little confused to do such a thing.

After thinking for a moment, Ying Zheng's eyes fell on Li Si, "I won't force you either."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Si's expression brightened.

"Well, you can go to Lan'er tomorrow to have a look. If you are willing to help, then you can help. If you don't want to, then you have never mentioned this matter." Then Ying Zheng continued.

Seeing that Ying Zheng had made such concessions, Li Si couldn't say anything more, so he had to agree, "Yes!"

But in his heart, he was extremely disdainful of Ying Lan.

snort!

I would like to see what ecstasy soup that waste material made to confuse His Majesty!

Chapter 42 Li Si's Shock

noon.

Li Si walked into the palace where Ying Lan was, but his expression was very fierce.

"My servant has seen the prime minister!" Seeing Li Si, the waiting maid hurriedly saluted.

Li Si didn't even bother to look at the maidservant, so he sat down directly, then waved his hands and said: "Go and call the young master out!"

After the words fell, the maid did not move, but froze in place with a very ugly expression on her face.

Seeing that the maid didn't move, Li Si frowned, "Why don't you go?"

The servant girl looked hesitant, perhaps because of fear, she couldn't help trembling slightly, "Return to the prime minister, now my son... is still sleeping..."

"Still sleeping?!" Li Si couldn't help shouting violently, and the anger in his eyes was burning.

Then he directly reprimanded, "The pigs are getting up at this time!"

But the maid just listened, but didn't dare to say more.

Given Li Si's status, she was absolutely someone she could not afford to offend.

Then Li Si let out a long sigh, "Waste material is waste material! No matter how much you can't help it!"

Li Si seemed to be in a better mood after the reprimand, and then he looked at the maid, and continued: "What are you still doing?! Go and wake him up!"

The servant girl shook her body, her face became more and more livid, "Return to the prime minister, son, he told you that no one should disturb you when you are sleeping..."

Li Si flew into a rage, "Is it supposed to mean that he won't wake up?!"

The maidservant was about to cry, she was stunned and at a loss, "This..."

On one side is the prince, on the other side is the prime minister, and she is just a messenger.

But now they are caught in the middle.
