Qin asked

If you want to say who is the most arrogant country now, it must be the Qin State: the gradual establishment of the name of the general led by Wang Jian, the invincible army fighters, and the ever-expanding territory. After the Wei State surrendered, the entire Qin State They have all fallen into a state of extreme fanaticism, and the unification ideal that would have been ridiculed to death a few years ago is now being humanized everywhere in the territory of Qin State.

Not to mention anything else, Mo Dou alone heard attendants discussing the unification of the Qin State more than once in Xianyang Palace. If someone insisted on restoring the Zhou Rites, they would cry out every minute seeing this scene.

But at this time, even the King of Zhou no longer exists, and the rituals of Zhou are even more out of the question, and Ying Zheng will not give anyone a chance to return to history.

"The next step is to conquer Chu."

Standing in front of Yutu, Yingzheng was full of vigor, looking like he wanted to go to the battlefield again. Mo Dou struggled for a long time. Although he already knew the order of Qin's attack, he couldn't help but asked, "Why didn't your lord take advantage of the situation?" Attacking the country of Yan?"

As long as the Yan State is completely wiped out, the entire north will be under the control of the Qin State, and the remaining Chu and Qi States will be placed in a double-team position by the Qin State, especially when the Yan State has offended Ying Zheng so much Apart from the fear that Qi State would be driven into a hurry and Yan State would be difficult to control, Mo Dou really couldn't think of why Ying Zheng would give up the soft persimmon of Yan State and touch the hard rock of Chu State.

Yingzheng raised his eyebrows, and tapped the words Chu State on the map with his slender fingers: "Chu State, moved something that he shouldn't have moved..."

Qin State captured the capital of Wei State, which marked the demise of Wei State, but just like Han Zhao, Yingzheng had to assign people to take over Wei State's cities one by one. The state of Wei bordered on the border, and secretly occupied several cities.

This phenomenon was not uncommon in the Warring States period. It was said that there was no righteous war in the Spring and Autumn Period, but people's methods were still a feeling, and all countries in the Warring States period thoroughly followed the principle of the supremacy of interests. As long as there is an opportunity, as long as they see benefits, Everyone will use all means to occupy it, just like when Zhao State was attacked by Qin State, Wei State and Yan State not only did not help Zhao State, but also used this to invade Zhao State, but it was unsuccessful. Li Mu Driven away...

If this matter happened in the past, Qin State might have just turned a blind eye to it, but the times are different. Both Ying Zheng and the ministers of Qin State have expressed that they cannot bear this matter.

What kind of Qin is the present state of Qin?They punched Zhao Han, kicked Wei Yan, and they wiped out three and a half of the seven heroes of the Warring States period.

Q: Which country is the strongest now?

Answer: Qin!

Question: Who owns this world?

Answer: Qin!

Q: Which country should you least offend?

Answer: Qin!

Q: So what are we going to do?

Answer: ... Attack and destroy Chu!

All in all, the state of Qin swelled, and the specific manifestation was that Ying Zheng handed over 20 troops to Li Xin and asked him to attack the state of Chu.

Li Xin, with a successful character, was a famous clan general of the Qin State at the end of the Warring States period. He had made great contributions in the battle to destroy the Yan State.

Seeing this, Wang Jian, who had sent the books all the way, relinquished his position as a general (actually the courier boy) and asked Ying Zheng for leave to go home for the elderly.

Speaking of Wang Jian, Ying Zheng sighed: "Old General Wang is getting old, the mere state of Chu needs 60 soldiers of the State of Qin, and it's time to retire..."

Mo Dou didn't speak, he looked at Ying Zheng silently, and Ying Zheng hesitated: "Your widow...wrong?"

He became serious: "Li Xin said he wanted 20, and Wang Jian said he wanted 60. Who do you think can be trusted?"

"Li Xin..." Mo Dou said lightly, and before Ying Zheng nodded, he added mockingly, "It's really how bold and prolific a person is."

Ying Zheng didn't understand, he was very sincere: "I don't understand."

Mo Dou thought for a while, and gave an example: "If I say, I have a way to let Yimu produce 100 shi of grain, will Your Majesty believe it?"

One stone in Qin State is equivalent to 60 kilograms, and even Mr. Yuan Longping's maximum output is only a little over 1000 kilograms. With ancient productivity, Mo Dou boasted so much that normal people would want to call him crazy.

However, Ying Zheng is not a normal person, he didn't hesitate to Mo Dou's words: "I believe it, so... Dou also thinks Li Xin is useful?"

Mo Dou: ... We can't talk anymore today!

……

Although in the end, Mo Dou managed to explain the irony in this sentence clearly, but Ying Zheng still decided to trust Li Xin for once. Mo Dou had no choice but to let him go. After all, with Li Xin's record, he couldn't say anything. , just added a sentence: "Your Majesty, prepare for defeat."

This sentence is already considered offensive, and now on the day of Qin's fortune, only Mo Dou dared to pour cold water on Ying Zheng, Ying Zheng nodded helplessly, and responded: "I know."

At first glance, he didn't take it seriously... To tell the truth, Mo Dou even detested his mother-in-law as a disappointment: "Since that's the case, Your Majesty should quickly find someone to discuss preparations."

Ying Zheng said indifferently: "Even if it loses, Qin will not lose a city. Even if it is really lost, Qin can take it back. There is no need for that."

"So... Your Majesty thinks the 20 people are not a loss?"

Ying Zheng frowned, instinctively wanting to refute: "No...just..."

Ying Zheng was dumbfounded, what was it? He really didn't like Qin's army of one million and 20 troops...

Mo Dou smiled, and used a famous saying in later generations: "The death of one person is a tragedy, but the death of 20 people is a number."

Ying Zheng stared blankly at Mo Dou, his throat rolled up and down, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he avoided Mo Dou's sight for the first time: He knew that he was definitely not the king that Mo Dou wanted, but I don't know why, but things just turned out like this...

"It's not the king's fault, it's just a curse of centralized power..." Mo Dou comforted Ying Zheng, "The kind that no one can escape."

Centralization is like this. It can bring together all the forces to promote the progress of the whole society in the shortest time, but at the same time, it will gradually paralyze the feelings, reason and even judgment of the superiors: , From resisting self-defense at the beginning, it gradually turned into a provocative publicity that exhausted national power; the Grand Canal of Emperor Sui Yang squeezed the last trace of people's power with the goal of reducing the loss of manpower and material resources; including Kangxi, who was also known as the eternal emperor , A lot of literary inquisitions were born under his subordinates; even Mo Dou just mentioned the issue of land yield... Almost every centralizer will do some ridiculous things, big or small, and no one can escape.

"But I will look after the king," Mo Dou promised, "Even if the king hates me and dislikes me, with me around, the king will be the most perfect monarch."

He is the biggest bug in the world, only for him, the spell will not work, Ying Zheng just needs to move forward boldly.
