This first emperor is awesome

Touman obviously prefers his son, and feels that Muli is making a fuss over a molehill.

It's just a natural disaster, so why be afraid of the people of Qin?

Chapter 97 Whoever owns his country has many things

"Northern Xinjiang Great Victory..."

"General Meng Tian Chen Bing Table Mountain, alone lured the enemy to defeat the Xiongnu."

"It's terrible, the empire's [-] infantry troops beheaded [-] Xiongnu cavalry."

"Heroes of the empire, with few against many, with few to win many, with weak to defeat strong."

"The Xiongnu knelt down and begged for mercy, Hetao is about to recover..."

"Shocked!!! Thirty thousand pioneers drank their hatred, and the Xiongnu Shanyu vomited blood."

All of a sudden, newsletters from all over the Great Qin Empire printed the latest news one after another, the whole country was in a state of excitement, and sales surged again.

All eyes are on the northern border, and they all pay close attention to the occupation of the northern battlefield.

Xianyang Palace...

Wang Jian lay on the grand master's chair bestowed by His Majesty, holding a piece of imperial news unsteadily, reading it with gusto.

Wang Ben sat aside, also holding a quick message in his hand, with a gloomy and uncertain expression.

Meng Tian is as famous as himself, and now Meng Tian has made another military exploit, and the empire's newsletter is notified to the world, which is world-renowned.

After this battle, who in the world does not know the king?

I am afraid that the reputation of myself and Meng Tian will be far apart.

"Ben'er, what do you think after reading it?"

Wang Jian asked suddenly.

Wang Ben was pulled back from his thoughts, paused and said: "Father, Meng Tian really lived up to His Majesty's high expectations. After this battle, he was able to shock the world and become a well-known imperial hero."

"Being a father is not asking you this."

Wang Jian continued to hold the newsletter without raising his head.

"The Xiongnu will be defeated, and the recovery of Hetao is not far away."

Wang Ben smiled bitterly, it seems that it is not easy to easily fool the past.

"After the surrender of Eastern Ou, the war in Western Ou is also over."

"Your Majesty has no intention of stopping the war, and ordered Tu Sui to continue going south to capture Luoyue."

"There are more and more rare and exquisite tools in the empire. I heard that what kind of machines have been built in the Arsenal?"

Wang Jian seemed to be a little forgetful and couldn't remember for a while.

"The steam engine can operate independently without human propulsion."

"It's really exquisite, a fetish of ingenious workmanship."

Wang Ben reminded, his voice full of sighs.

"Yes, it's a steam engine."

"The Wang family is in a time of great controversy. If you stick to your old achievements, what will the Wang family do after being a father for a hundred years?"

Wang Jian put down the newsletter in his hand, and lay on the chair of the grand master, his old eyes shining with wisdom.

"Does the father want the child to lead the army?"

Although Wang Ben is already in his 40s, he is still somewhat restrained in front of his father, and his voice is full of hope.

"There is Meng Tian in the north, and Tu Sui in the south."

"If you want to go out in armor again, how easy is it?"

"Jizi in the southeast, the Kingdom of Chen, has always admired the Central Plains, and sends envoys to meet the emperor every year."

"Since the emperor of Zhou was destroyed by Qin, all the countries have looked forward to the Qin Empire."

"Your Majesty sent Liu Ji to Yelang, and the southwest may be the breakthrough point."

"Although Li'er is very outstanding, her achievements are limited, and it is difficult to support the Wang family's lintel."

"The Meng family has won the emperor's grace and favor. If the world is in peace for a long time, the Wang family should retire after success, so as to enjoy the prosperity and peace in peace."

"However, His Majesty is talented and broad-minded, and is not content with the status quo."

"It coincides with the time when the empire employs people. It is the duty of my subjects to be loyal to His Majesty and contribute to the empire."

"Your arrow wound has been recuperating for several years, it's time to go for a walk."

"We can't let people in the world only know about Mengshi, but forget about Wangshi."

"Let's not let His Majesty feel that the Wang family has no successors, and that the Meng family is the pillar of the empire."

Wang Jian thought for a long time, and finally decided to let his son return to military affairs.

The Meng family brothers are really outstanding. Although the grandson Wang Li has no major mistakes, he has no military exploits either.

To wipe out the six kingdoms, I was afraid of being jealous by His Majesty, so I wanted to retire after the success, so as not to get burned.

But our Majesty is not willing to be lonely. After seeing that vast map, Wang Jian seems to have gradually regained his youthful ambition.

It's a pity that I am getting old, and I still need young people to fight hard in the future. I am no longer suitable to lead an expedition and make contributions to the country.

Now that he occupies the position of Duke, he is highly respected in the Great Qin Empire, and it is no exaggeration to say that he is an extremely human minister.

But the prosperity of the family does not depend on the merits of one person.

It is generation after generation, working hard to maintain the glory of the family.

As long as the family is reused by the king, it can last forever.

Otherwise, it is just a flash in the pan and will eventually wither.

"Father's intention is to let the child play the role of His Majesty and lead the army to conquer the southwestern Dian Kingdom?"

Wang Ben's eyes were shining brightly, and making meritorious deeds on the battlefield is his lifelong pursuit.

But all these years, my father has been suppressing me and will not let me enter the dynasty again.

"The country of small bullets, what's the point?"

Wang Jian glanced at his somewhat excited son, and said leisurely.

"What does father mean?"

Wang Ben was stunned for a while, and said a little confused.

"Beyond Longxi, there is a vast and fertile land called the Western Regions. Its countries are numerous and its objects are abundant."

"If you can lead the army to defeat the Yuezhi people and open up the passage between the empire and the states in the Western Regions, your merits will be no less than Meng Tian's defeat of the Xiongnu."

"If you can expand the Western Regions into Qin Dynasty, the meaning will be far more far-reaching than Meng Tian taking back the Hetao area."

"Although His Majesty has never explicitly stated that he intends to use troops against the countries of the Western Regions, Father can clearly perceive that His Majesty has long coveted that vast and fertile land."

Wang Jian talked eloquently, obviously knowing His Majesty very well.

A hungry wolf that can never get enough to eat, can it change its nature so that it does not crave delicious prey?

"But the northern border of the empire, the southern border is full of flames, and the west will open up a battlefield. Will your majesty agree?"

Wang Ben thought for a while and was quite puzzled.

"That depends on how much it will cost to defeat the Yuezhi."

"If you don't have to do anything, you can easily defeat the Yuezhi people and open up the passage to the Western Regions."

"Your Majesty is naturally very happy, but if you have to pay a painful price, even if Your Majesty has the heart, Qin will be powerless."

"It only takes three years to rule the world. The six countries have surrendered millions of soldiers. The most important thing that Great Qin lacks right now is military strength."

"It's just logistical supplies, which is quite tricky."

"But these are not problems. Longxi, Bashu, and Qiongdu have a total of 20 Dingxi troops."

"I have served my father for more than 40 years in the court. If my son has such ambitions, even if my father loses face, I must raise enough food and grass for you."

Wang Jian looked at his son Wang Ben, his old face was wrinkled and full of anticipation.

"The child will surely live up to His Majesty's expectations, his father's expectations, and the empire's high hopes."

"In the land of Longxi, there is Wang Ben, and there is no Yuezhi."

Wang Ben said in high spirits, he felt his blood was burning, as if he had returned to the years when he led the army to conquer the six kingdoms.

"Very well, Your Majesty is about to return to the country. When the time comes, you will enter the palace with your father and present a performance to Your Majesty."

Wang Jian immediately comforted him, and his mood improved instantly.

"The child obeys the father's orders."

Wang Ben bowed his head and cupped his hands, his eyes gleaming with strange brilliance.

I have waited too long for this day...

Chapter 98 Stubborn Illness Still Needs Strong Medicine to Heal Evil Wind

"Chen Mengyi, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

In Kuaiji Palace, Meng Yi bowed respectfully to Ying Zheng sitting on the throne.

"sit."

Ying Zheng put down the brush in his hand and said to Meng Yi.

Two servants moved a special four-legged wooden chair and placed it behind Meng Yi.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Meng Yi bowed his hands again, and then sat down directly.

"This east tour, along the way, have you seen it all?"

Ying Zheng poker-faced, brows furrowed.

"Your Majesty is referring to the disturbance of the farmland?"

Meng Yi felt heavy in his heart, His Majesty's itinerary on this journey was very different from the past, it didn't follow the established route at all, but His Majesty walked wherever he wanted.

Everywhere he went, His Majesty would take himself and others and pretend to go out to investigate public opinion.

"Since I have unified the world, governed the way, and made all products suitable, there are laws and regulations."

"However, these local officials, who eat the king's salary, wantonly misinterpreted the imperial court's laws and turned a deaf ear to the imperial court's laws."

"His heart can be punished, and his deeds can be hated."

"Wipe out the six countries, and I will promulgate a benevolent policy, so that the head of Guizhou will be able to secure its own land."

"The original intention is to raise all the people in the world, no longer be displaced, live in peace, and enjoy peace."

"However, six out of ten good fields everywhere are stolen by the rich and powerful, and three to four out of ten are owned by the people."

"In the long run, people who plow the fields will not get enough food, and it is still difficult to feed themselves. How can the prosperity of the empire start?"

Ying Zheng's face was dark, and his voice was bitingly cold.

"Your Majesty, the disadvantages of cultivated land have existed since ancient times."

"The arable land in the head of Guizhou of the six countries is barren. It is not Qin's fault, but an old disease in the past."

"The centuries-old foundations of the six countries in Shandong have long since decayed and withered."

"In this country, princes and nobles are greedy and extortionate, occupying good land to enrich private soldiers."

"The country is full of wealthy and wealthy businessmen, without a ruler and father, stealing the country to strengthen themselves."

"In the six countries today, the land resources are unbalanced and tilted, which is actually a chronic disease for hundreds of years."

Meng Yi saw His Majesty's dissatisfaction and indignation, and quickly spoke.

"The people of Qin have a place to live in, and food to rely on, so they can live in peace and prosperity."
