my grandfather was qin shi huang

He had never seen a "map" like this.

Three-dimensional and intuitive, it was as if the whole world was crawling at his feet. He walked to the sand table and looked at the land here from a high position, with a somewhat moved expression.

Although he still doesn't know what the thing under his feet is, the words marked on it truly tell him that this is the current territory of Da Qin. In his life, he has been working hard and sleeping hard all night. After working hard, he conquered the world and conquered this great land in front of him.

In the west, mountains and rivers stretch from Lintao, where the flat sands are dark, to in the east, Liaodong, where the mountains are covered with yellow clouds and heavy snow, in the north, the Great Wall stretches for thousands of miles, in the south, Baiyue surrenders, and as for the South China Sea——

He had never visited many places in person. He only saw the general range on the maps presented by his courtiers or prisoners of the enemy. At this moment, the mountains and rivers he conquered appeared concretely and subtly at his feet. How could his mind not be shaken and how could his mood be? Not complicated?

The First Emperor was silent, and everyone else held their breath and concentrated, fearing that they would make some noise and disturb the First Emperor's mood.

Only Zhao Ying stood aside with a calm expression, not forgetting to nod to Wei Liaozi.

"What is this?"

After examining it for a long time, the First Emperor slowly withdrew his eyes from the sand table in front of him and looked at his eldest grandson with a calm smile on his face.

"Sand table - I use it for military training. I recently discovered that those bastards don't even have the slightest idea of ​​mountains and terrain, so I just wanted to get this thing out and let them see it, so that they can have a somewhat overall understanding of our country in Great Qin. This impression can also let them know what kind of empire they live in and what kind of land they want to protect under their feet..."

Having said this, Zhao Ying had a more serious look on his face.

"We are all wrapped in horse leather and fighting in a bloody battlefield. We can't end up not knowing what we are doing..."

The First Emperor couldn't help but nodded slightly when he heard the words, and Taiwei Liao couldn't help twirling his beard and smiling, his eyes had a somewhat inexplicable meaning.

He is worthy of being the emperor's eldest grandson who could write "Forging the Soul of the Army".

"A single soldier is like a wolf or a tiger, like wind or rain, or like thunder; it shakes the world and shocks the whole world."

The emperor's grandson is practicing a weapon that will shock everyone in the world!

This magnanimity...

He couldn't help but exhale slowly, glanced at the majestic First Emperor without any trace, and then withdrew his gaze without trace, and turned back into the gentle man with white beard and hair, indifferent eyes, and a bit of warmth. By.

"Sand table? Just because some sand was used..."

When the First Emperor heard this, he frowned slightly and glanced at his eldest grandson with some dissatisfaction. He was quite smart when he was organizing things, but with the same name, he was a scumbag...

Zhao Ying: ...

Um, Dad, you don’t want to call me Huangsun Pan again, do you?

Fortunately, the First Emperor seemed to have a different mood this time, and did not adopt his shabby name that sounded unsound.

"Although this thing is small, it is concrete and micro, condensed thousands of miles away. Looking at this picture, it seems that the country of the Qin Dynasty is in front of you - why not call it the picture of the country..."

Zhao Ying couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

Fortunately, I didn't call him Huangsunsha or Huangsunpan or some other weird name, otherwise I would have really made him vomit blood.

After naming the things made by his grandson, the First Emperor seemed to be in a good mood. After circling the sand table two more times, he suddenly stopped thoughtfully and glanced at his eldest grandson standing aside.

"Although this thing is wonderful, it is still too small after all. Can it be made bigger?"

Zhao Ying didn't think much and nodded casually.

"Of course, theoretically speaking, as long as there is a big enough place to put it, this sand - cough, this Jiangshan Sheji Tu can be as big as you want - it just requires a lot of manpower and material resources..."

When the First Emperor heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Very good. I will make a map of the country with a radius of [-] meters. When the time comes, I will build another building [-] steps east to west and [-] feet north to south in the north of Afang. It can seat ten thousand people on the top and [-] feet below. The palace of the flag is used to hold this thing to show the achievements of our great Qin——"

Zhao Ying: ...

"Well, I have already thought of a name. It will be called Jiangshan Sheji Palace - when the time comes, I will ask people to use it as a plan, so that future generations will also remember your contribution..."

Zhao Yinghan was almost down.

Dad, goodbye, if you really come here like this, I will be poked in the spine and scolded for thousands of years.

But when the words came to his lips, they changed into words.

"No need to go to such trouble - if my eldest father really wants to organize the manpower to make this thing, he can put it in the front hall of Afang Palace. The front hall is vast enough to hold it. What's more, it can be placed in the front hall before going to the rooftop. , it also has the meaning of showing my Great Qin’s achievements to God and praying for God’s blessing. It will be convenient when my father wants to visit me in the future. What does my father think..."

Zhao Ying did not object to the idea of ​​the First Emperor, who seemed to be very happy with his achievements, to create a large-scale map of the country with a radius of [-] meters. He knew in his heart how important the map would be once it was completed.

Needless to say, dragging those generals over and walking around here is more effective than pointing to an abstract flat map and talking about the art of war for ten or eight years.

In the art of war, once you have gained access to the enemy, and then fight, in many cases, you are fighting an information war.

It is almost clear at a glance where troops can be used, where ambushes can be set up, where camps can be made, where food can be raised, what kind of troops are suitable, what kind of formations can be set up, and what strategies are needed.

The effect is beyond imagination.

To put it a step further, it’s like playing an empire game. Who doesn’t want to watch their own territory become bigger and bigger in their own hands? This thing is addictive - trapped in the land of China, unable to see the outside world. , the eyes can probably only be restricted to this small area forever, and generations have been fighting among themselves.

But if we continue to carry out large-scale construction projects, it will really not work.

He knew better than the First Emperor what the Great Qin was like now. On the outside, it still looks invincible, but in fact, inside, it is riddled with holes and looks a bit tired.

If the situation continues, the situation in the Qin Empire will collapse even faster.

When the time comes, let alone talk about turning the tide or redeeming yourself, in all likelihood, you will turn into a treacherous villain that everyone shouts and beats, the culprit who deceived the First Emperor to build a large-scale construction project...

Upon hearing Zhao Ying's suggestion, Taiwei Liao on the side couldn't help but flash his eyes slightly, with a fleeting hint of approval flashing in his eyes.

Just now, he was really afraid that the emperor's eldest grandson would casually chime in, and he was mentally prepared to bite the bullet and admonish the First Emperor. When he heard Zhao Ying's suggestion, he couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He bowed deeply to the side and agreed with a serious face.

"This is a wonderful discussion between the emperor and his grandson. This map of mountains, rivers, and the country is a wordless book that records the achievements of the kings of the Qin Dynasty. It should be placed in the front hall before going up to the Tiantai to show to the sky that our achievements in the Qin Dynasty are unprecedented. , Your Majesty’s merits are greater than those of the Three Emperors, surpassing the Five Emperors, and are the righteousness of the world. Starting from Your Majesty, the foundation of the Qin Dynasty will last for thousands of generations, and even to infinity..."

The First Emperor was in a good mood and felt that what the two people said was very agreeable.

"Okay, just as you said..."

When Zhao Ying heard this, he couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief and flattered him without hesitation.

"Father is wise!"

As he spoke, he saw Tai Wei Liao, who had a serious face just now, from the corner of his eye. He seemed to be slightly relieved. He couldn't help but glance at the legendary super boss in his previous life without any trace.

Although the Qin Dynasty was short-lived, many records were destroyed in Xiang Yu's fire, and many names and deeds have been lost to history, but it is undeniable that it was an era where stars shined and talents emerged in large numbers.

Not to mention anything else, if there were not so many talents, how could Da Qin rise from the desolate and barren land of Longxi, sweep across the six countries, and dominate the world?

It's just that many people were lost in history following Xiang Yu's fire.

Even so, Wei Liaozi's name still shocks ancient and modern times.

Zhao Ying was originally worried that this was a towering, cold, and unattainable boss. Today, when he saw the legendary Wei Liaozi, he began to flatter him without blinking an eyelid. He was smoother than himself.

I felt a lot more friendly in an instant, and I couldn't help but have some thoughts in my heart.

Talent——

What I need is this kind of high-end talent.

"Ah--"

The First Emperor chuckled lightly and glanced at his eldest grandson with a half-smile.

"If I didn't agree just now, would you scold me for wasting money and wasting money on large-scale construction projects?"

Zhao Ying: ...

Father, why are you so awake in this world?

You can't even admit it.

"Ahem - Well, I really think it's good to put it there..."

After saying that, he looked at Taiwei Liao, who was pretending not to hear, as if asking for help.

"Are you right, Captain Liao..."

Wei Liaozi: ...

Suddenly, I felt that the emperor's eldest grandson was a bit disgusting.

"Big Father, we were discussing just now. We want to ask Big Father for instructions to set up special tasks, organize manpower, and build a more detailed social map county by county according to geographical distribution. This project is huge and complicated, and there is no With the permission of the great father and the help of the imperial court, it is impossible to complete it with just the strength of a few of us..."

Seeing that the atmosphere was slightly awkward, Zhao Ying quickly changed the topic.

The First Emperor was just in a good mood, so he casually teased his eldest grandson, and when he saw him talking about serious matters, he became serious.

"Okay, you are still responsible for this matter. You will appoint two Yushi Zhongcheng to be your deputies. If you need any manpower information, you can go to each yamen to get it..."

Zhao Ying: ...

Why don't you give it directly?

Zhao Ying complained in his heart, but Taiwei Liao on the side couldn't help but looked up thoughtfully at His Royal Highness the Emperor Changsun who looked reluctant, with a smile in his eyes.

It seems that His Majesty is really attentive to His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson of the Emperor!

"Your Highness the Emperor's Grandson, when I was young, I traveled around the world, and I have some impressions of the direction of some mountains and terrains. If Your Highness the Emperor's Grandson does not dislike it, I am willing to do my best..."

Taiwei Liao smiled and cupped his hands at Zhao Ying.

Zhao Ying couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"It's natural to have a Tai Lieutenant here to give you some advice -"

It's settled!

With the new arrangement, Zhao Ying is no longer anxious about the follow-up matters. He will use the power of the Qin Dynasty to build several large-scale sand tables - no, is it a big deal to build several large-scale Jiangshan Sheji Maps?

The First Emperor and Taiwei Liao came at this time, probably because they wanted to see him for something. Zhao Ying simply dismissed everyone with a smile. Before leaving, all the Yushitai officials who came to help each gave a portion of bean sprouts. , a portion of tofu.

The main thing is that this thing can be mass-produced and the family can save a lot.

"Thanks everyone for your hard work, let me express my feelings——"

After all, they are all officials from Yushitai. Although they are lower-level officials, they still have to be somewhat decent. It is not appropriate to directly reward them with a small amount of money. It is better to give them this.

Although common in later generations, in this era, it is also considered a rarity. Except for him, it is impossible for ordinary people to eat it unless they go to Baixiang Pavilion.

Sure enough, all the officials who received the gifts were very happy, thanked them repeatedly, and then said goodbye and left.

In fact, to them, it doesn't matter what His Highness the Emperor's eldest son gave him. What matters is that His Highness the eldest son of the Emperor actually sees insignificant people like them.

When they came out of the mansion, a group of people couldn't help but exclaimed that the young master was kind and polite, approachable, and treated people and things as if they were a spring breeze. He really had the air of an eldest son.

Zhao Ying didn't know they were talking about this behind his back. If he knew, he might be able to rush out and snatch it back from them.

After everyone dispersed, the First Emperor smiled and invited Wei Liaozi.

"There's no rush to go see papermaking and printing. Now that you're here, you might as well hang around here first. Don't look at how tired this brat is on weekdays. Just let him handle some government affairs. It seems like he is destined to die, but he has some experience in dealing with some messy chores, and some small things are quite interesting - if you are not in a hurry to go back, you can still stay here and have a drink with me..."

Wei Liaozi was originally very interested in the sudden rise of His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson of the emperor. Now that the First Emperor mentioned it, his interest became even more intense, and he immediately nodded with a smile.

"I have my wish, but I don't dare to ask my ears——"

After saying that, the monarch and his minister looked at each other and smiled. Although everyone has their own thoughts, the atmosphere is harmonious and enjoyable.

The First Emperor and Taiwei Liao were willing to visit the residence and stay for meals, so Zhao Ying naturally wanted to do so. Needless to say, the First Emperor. This Taiwei Liao, who looks white with white beard and hair and is no longer involved in government affairs, is also the top being of this era.

Even if you can't rely on him for help in the future, it's still a good thing to be able to leave a good karma.

Zhao Ying was very enthusiastic and went to the kitchen in person to prepare meals.

The First Emperor took Wei Liaozi to the back garden with great interest.

"This is what kind of greenhouse that bastard made--"

The First Emperor skillfully opened up the grass thatch covering it and looked at the green leeks and wheat yellow cabbage inside. A smile flashed in his eyes, but he complained to the stunned Wei Liaozi with disgust. .

"I don't know where this bastard got so much free time and is too lazy to do business. He's really interested in miscellaneous things like this -"

In addition: the front hall is the main palace of Afang Palace. According to historical records, "it is five hundred paces from east to west and fifty feet from north to south. It can seat ten thousand people on the top and build a flag of five feet below." The rooftop is a building used by Epang Palace to worship the gods. According to relevant historical records, its size is 16.8 meters x 16.8 meters and 19.8 meters high. It is not the kind of rooftop that everyone needs to queue up to get on.
