Traveling through Great Qin: Father Qin Shihuang!

He and Zhao Che naturally had the same hatred for the Xiongnu alien race.

Judging from what Zhao Che meant, he seemed to be planning to attack the Xiongnu?

Sure enough, Zhao Che immediately laughed when he heard Ying Zheng's words.

"There are a lot of horses on the side of the Huns. It happened that they invaded Daqin a few days ago. They were beaten back, and they must have suffered a lot of losses."

"The Huns can invade our Great Qin, why can't we invade them? What's more, the Huns occupy the northern prairie, and the most indispensable thing is all kinds of livestock and horses!"

"This winter, the Xiongnu failed to plunder the food from the Great Qin. Life must be difficult. If we take this opportunity to visit the Xiongnu, we will definitely get a lot of benefits!"

……

"Invasion of the Huns?"

Ying Zheng's eyes lit up, and to be honest, he hadn't thought about this idea.

However, due to various reasons, it has not been able to be realized for a long time.

As Zhao Che said, why can they not invade a wave of Xiongnu when they can only wait for the Xiongnu to come and invade?

What's more, the changes in Daqin during this period are still relatively large. With so many new weapons and equipment, isn't it easy to deal with a small Xiongnu?
"How about dad, are you interested in making a vote?"

"What do you mean?"

Ying Zheng asked excitedly.

"How to do it, of course, depends on what you think, Dad. The twelve zodiac signs have followed me during this time and have learned a lot of military art. I think that when the time comes, they can lead the army themselves!"

"In terms of logistics resources, Dad, just tell me what you lack, and I will take care of it."

"Of course, it's not something that happens overnight. I suggest that it's best to wait until our potatoes are ripe. By then, we can collect a lot of money and food, which can be used as military expenses this time!"

"Okay, Dad listens to you, I will go back and study the strategy of this battle, I will send a message to you if I need anything!"

"No problem, take back this telescope and compass daddy, the function of this compass is actually very simple, it is used to identify the direction, in case you get lost on the battlefield!"

"Oh? Isn't this the guiding car?"

The compass, as one of the four great inventions of ancient times, actually appeared very early.

Therefore, after Ying Zheng learned of its role, he was not too surprised.

However, Zhao Che's compass is much more convenient than the compass car they used, and can be carried with them.

Moreover, the accuracy of the compass is also more accurate, and the effect is still very good.

"Then I'll be waiting for your good news!"

Zhao Che waved his hand and didn't say anything more. He packed up the things that were going to be given to Ying Zheng, and then sent him out of the door.

……

"Mengqing, if we attack the Xiongnu this time, what do you think the chances of winning are?"

On the carriage, Ying Zheng played with the telescope in his hand, and asked Meng Yi what he thought of Zhao Che's suggestion.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, my Great Qin now has many soldiers and generals. After the potatoes are ripe, there will be no problems in terms of food and grass. Mere Huns, as long as Your Majesty is willing, can they be destroyed with a snap of a finger?"

Obviously, Meng Yi is very confident.

"The widow also thinks the same. The Huns have been bullying me, Daqin, for a long time. If the widow doesn't deal with them, they really think that Daqin is afraid of them!"

Ying Zheng snorted coldly, he had already decided to fight this battle, and he wanted to fight it beautifully, so that the Xiongnu would never dare to invade Great Qin again.

Of course, Ying Zheng wasn't too anxious. Just as Zhao Che said, going out for an expedition is not a matter of a day or two.

It's better to get the matter at hand done first, the potatoes in Nanjun are about to ripen.

Although the price of food is still sky-high, it has basically stabilized.

It's just that such a terrifying price increase rate of food eventually caused panic among many people.

These days, the weather has obviously brought the bleakness of autumn and winter.

The heads of Guizhou could not afford cotton-padded clothes. In order to resist the cold, they could only stay at home all day and could not do anything at all.

Seeing that the food stock at home is decreasing day by day, when they want to go to the food store to buy food, they realize that the price of food has been so high that they can only look up to it.

Ordinary Qianshou, even if they have all their wealth together, can't afford enough food for the winter.

Therefore, in this case, the people complained a lot.

Moreover, I don't know who spread the news among the leaders of Guizhou, saying that the sharp increase in food prices this time was actually the result of Ying Zheng's failure to intervene.

Ying Zheng didn't care about the life and death of these low-level Guizhou leaders.

Only one or two people say that such rumors are okay, and the heads of Guizhou don't really believe it.

However, as the number of people spread became wider and wider, even some people with extraordinary status stood up to testify.

All of a sudden, Yingzheng allowed the price of food to increase, regardless of the news of the life and death of the head of Guizhou at the bottom, and the news spread in an instant.

As the saying goes, good things don't go out, and bad things travel thousands of miles.

Previously, Yingzheng took the initiative to reduce taxes, reduce corvees, and suspend the construction of the Mausoleum of the First Emperor and the Great Wall, including personally going to Shangjun to treat the plague for the head of Qianshou in Shangjun, and finally accumulated some good reputation.

As a result, because of this incident, these reputations were ruined all at once.

And in the court, the officials who heard these rumors were even more angry with hatred.

But they can't help it, because this is the fact that the reason why the price of food has risen so high is absolutely inseparable from Ying Zheng's inaction.

……

"Your Majesty, you can't go on like this anymore. You have to make an order to forcibly lower the price of grain, otherwise the leaders at the grassroots level will be in trouble!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I have seen a lot of Qianshou gathering crowds outside the city for the past few days. Although they can be suppressed for the time being, the future is hard to say!"

"I also hope that His Majesty will quickly issue an order to suppress the price of grain, otherwise our Great Qin will be in danger!"

At the court meeting in Xianyang, a group of courtiers complained one after another, asking Yingzheng to forcibly suppress the price of grain.

This time, even Li Si chose to stand on the side of favor.

After all, no matter how strict the laws of Daqin are, it is to maintain the stability of the country.

But because of the food problem, the head of Qin and Guizhou is now full of complaints. If they don't make a decision quickly, they will definitely be in big trouble.

"Don't worry, dear friends, I have my own plan. There are still a few days before the March period. After a few days, the price of food will naturally come down!"
