Daqin started with offering immortal medicine

"Unify the Huns? Oh, it's not easy, do you think it's as easy as playing a game of chess?"

Feng Quji sneered: "Back then, the main force of the Xiongnu was mostly in the Yinshan area and the Helan Mountain area, and the forces going south to Henan were relatively weak. Moreover, the Qin State had prepared for war for many years. Meng Tian led an army of 30, which was enough It took a year before the Henan area was captured." PS: (The Henan area here refers to the south of the Wujia River in Inner Mongolia and the Yikezhao League, not the later Henan Province.)

"You know, at that time, my Great Qin also made a sudden effort. The Huns were not prepared, and most of the Huns soldiers in Henan were scattered tribes, so they were defeated one after another. Meng Tian took Henan. Then, Meng Tian It took a year to drive the Xiongnu to the north of Yinshan Mountain. In this way, it took a full two years to completely take the Henan land back to Daqin."

Speaking of this, Feng Quji raised his head and glanced at the crowd, and said, "It took Meng Tian two years to drive the Xiongnu out of Henan. May I ask, Li Yang plans to spend one winter this time, can he unify the Xiongnu?"

At this moment, everyone was stunned.

That's right, Meng Tian just drove the Xiongnu out of Henan in two years, but Li Yang, how could he unify the Xiongnu in one winter?

You must know that everyone on the Huns can be a soldier who can fight. In one winter, let alone the plan to unify the Huns, or even wipe out the Huns' livestock production, it will be difficult to achieve.

After all, if you send a large army to sweep up other people's livestock, they will definitely organize the main force to resist you.

In one winter, it is not bad to be able to fight a big battle with the Huns.

Wanting to wipe out the entire Xiongnu grassland, deplete the Huns' livestock, and force them to survive the cold winter, to put it bluntly, this is simply whimsical.

"So, Li Yang has almost no chance of winning this Northern Expedition?"

Thinking of this, everyone was overjoyed.

Feng Quji said thoughtfully: "It is absolutely impossible to unify the Xiongnu, but it is not difficult to lead our 30 troops into the grassland, and it is not difficult to win a few battles. It is indispensable."

Everyone nodded when they heard this.

Bai Zhengdao: "In other words, Li Yang should have seen this point. As long as he goes, he will definitely be able to make military exploits. In this way, his status in the army will also be greatly improved. It can be said that there are only benefits and no benefits. Disadvantage."

"It must be so."

Feng Quji nodded, and then said with a smile: "Do you remember when the emperor told Li Yang that when he unified the Xiongnu, he would be crowned king, but Li Yang was not at all excited. Why? If the truth is correct If so, Li Yang actually knows in his heart that it is impossible to unify the Xiongnu in one winter, so he will be as calm as water when he hears the emperor's promise."

Everyone nodded in a sudden realization, and praised: "It's Mr. Feng who sees things thoroughly."

Feng Quji said with a smile: "It is so difficult for my courtiers to become king. If the Huns are so easy to unify, then it is too easy to get this 'king'."

At this time, one of them was a little worried and said: "However, this Li Yang can't be treated with common sense. Half a year ago, with five hundred soldiers, he only took three days to take over Pei County and become a prime minister twice. The city is nothing short of a miracle. This time, if he does another miracle, wouldn't it be..."

"You think too much!"

Feng Quji laughed lightly, and said: "In the fight against the chaos half a year ago, Li Yang's resourcefulness did create a miracle. Within three days, he conquered two cities. However, how could the war against the Huns be compared with the chaos? Miracles are absolutely impossible to happen a second time."

Speaking of this, Feng Quji said with a clear face: "If you want to unify the Xiongnu, it will not take more than five years, it is absolutely impossible! Not to mention unifying the Xiongnu, even if it is to conquer Baiyue in the south, Tu Sui leads an army of more than 50 It took five full years to go south in five routes, and it took five full years to unify."

Everyone nodded again and again, feeling that Feng Quji's words were very reasonable.

Baiyue, at least they have cities and strongholds, if they want to conquer Baiyue, they can still attack one city and one stronghold.

But the Xiongnu are nomadic people and are extremely mobile.They often attack when they have an opportunity to take advantage of, and flee when they have no chance of winning, leaving you helpless.

If you want to fight a decisive battle with the Xiongnu, you have to use a lot of troops to surround their retreat before forcing their troops to fight a decisive battle, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve a vigorous battle.

It is precisely because of this that Meng Tian only drove the Xiongnu out of the north of Yinshan Mountain, but could not annihilate the Xiongnu army like Baiyue did.

At the same time, this is also why Qin Shihuang would rather spend five years sending Tu Sui to lead an army of more than 50 people to go south in five routes to unify Baiyue, while Meng Tian, ​​who conquered the Huns in the north, only recovered Hetao, and then ended his campaign and changed to This is the reason why the whole country built the Great Wall to resist the Huns.

To sum it up in one sentence, the Huns can be expelled, but not destroyed!

He, Li Yang, wanted to unify the Xiongnu in one winter, purely dreaming.Even if he is a god, it is impossible to do it.

Seeing that everyone let go of these unnecessary worries in their hearts, Feng Quji said: "As long as we can make the New Deal fail, even if Li Yang won a few battles against the Huns, what does it matter? After all, the New Deal is what we have to fight with." His arena!"

Everyone nodded, no worries in their hearts.

On the contrary, they could already faintly think about the future ending.

Li Yang fought against the Xiongnu, and made some military achievements.

However, when we returned to the court, the New Deal had existed in name only. At this time, spring was approaching, and the New Deal could no longer be done. In the end, the New Deal land reform failed. The old clans, gentry clans, and upstarts all fought against each other. For the sake of the Great Qin State, His Majesty must punish Li Yang!

Li Yang fell, and the government fell into the hands of Prime Minister Feng again, and the overall situation was settled!

Thinking of this, Baizheng and the others were immediately full of confidence. After leaving Prime Minister Feng's mansion, they were ready to take action against the New Deal...

Chapter 2 The Great Wall Camp

After several days of marching, Li Yang finally entered the territory of Shangjun.Looking around, a majestic and meandering Great Wall has faintly come into view. (Shangjun, the area under its jurisdiction is about the north-central level of present-day Shaanxi Province, adjacent to the part of Inner Mongolia, with 21 counties in Qin Dynasty.)

After Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, it set up counties and counties here. Meng Tian led 30 troops to guard here, built the Great Wall, and defended the north.

Therefore, at that majestic pass of the Great Wall, there is a large building with guard towers and barracks for soldiers. It looks like a city with 30 frontier troops stationed inside. This is the Great Wall camp of the Great Qin Dynasty.

This pass border army town camp, according to the danger, controls the throat of the north and the south, like a giant lock strangling the border pass. It is one of the largest fortresses along the northern Great Wall and an important military center north of the Great Wall.

At the same time, the Great Wall camp, the shogunate.In the Qin Dynasty, every general and above had a combat command organization, called the shogunate. There were various command organs and staff members in the shogunate, as many as dozens of people.

"Report!"

At this time, a soldier walked quickly into the shogunate of the Great Wall camp.

In the meeting hall of the mansion, a strong middle-aged general sat above him. This person was none other than the commander-in-chief of the Great Wall Frontier Army, General Wang Li.

At this time, there were more than a dozen generals and officers in the hall.

"Report, the North Conquest Army has arrived ten miles outside the city!"

"Oh? It's finally here!" Hearing the report from the soldiers, the general Wang Li, who was sitting in the main seat in the hall, frowned, got up immediately, and said, "All the generals, follow me to the outside of the city to welcome the principal! "

"General Wang, is it necessary? According to the general, just greet him at the gate of the camp."

The general who spoke was the deputy general Su Jiao, formerly a general of Qin general Meng Tian, ​​and now the deputy general of the Great Wall camp.

Everyone nodded, and another general said: "Yes, although Li Yang is the dean of the State Council, and he is in charge of our Great Wall Frontier Army this time, he is a civil servant after all. To greet him outside the city, isn't that flattering him too much?"

In the army, it is about military merit and qualifications. To be admired by others, you need to rely on outstanding meritorious service, and how can you be admired by generals only by official rank.

It was precisely because of this that the generals of the Great Wall camp didn't have much interest in Li Yang.

A civil official came to lead their group of generals, which has already made these generals unconvinced.In terms of fighting the Xiongnu, Meng Tian in the court, and Wang Li in the Great Wall camp, which one is better than Li Yang?

However, since the emperor ordered him to be the commander-in-chief and control the Great Wall camp, everyone had to obey.But at this moment, Wang Li wants everyone to go out of the city to greet him, which is unacceptable.

To put it bluntly, isn't this giving Li Yang too much face?

Another general said: "I'm not a county official, I think what General Su said is right, just greet him outside the camp."

Wang Li's face turned cold, he glanced at the generals, and said in a deep voice, "Why, the coach is going to be changed, don't you even listen to what this general has to say?"
