Chapter 122 Isn’t this digging your own grave?

The early years of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Bang was a little helpless. The Han Dynasty was still not strong enough, so he could only temporarily deal with the Huns by making peace with each other, so as to minimize the outbreak of conflicts and reduce losses.

In fact, this is just drinking poison to quench thirst, and cannot solve the essential problem - the Central Plains is rich in resources and the borders are in trouble.

As for what kind of effect Jia Yi's method will have, nothing is known.

The most ideal thing is that they are willing to become a member of the Han Dynasty and return to the Han Dynasty.

But reality is often not so beautiful, and we must prepare for the worst.

Moreover, his Han Dynasty still needs to develop and become stronger. If he wants to defeat the Xiongnu, his military achievements are indispensable.

Therefore, it is necessary to work hard to restore the chaotic economy in the country, manage the public voice of the people, provide the army with sufficient logistical support, strengthen the forging of equipment, and the cultivation of war horses.

But all this requires too much manpower and time! ——
Han Dynasty, the fourth year of Yuanshou.

Liu Che agreed: "Getting married is nothing more than putting out fires. How can we get long-term peace? It's just a matter of contentment!"

He thought like this in the past, he still thinks like this now, and he will always think like this in the future.

Since he ascended the throne, he has constantly advocated crusade against the Huns and allowed the Han army to take the initiative to attack the Huns.

Although there are also many failures and setbacks, the results have been reflected so far. Who in the court dares to say that his idea is wrong?

There are only some people who stay in the old times and are still immersed in the fear and intimidation brought by the Xiongnu, and they are stuck in their ways.

And they have already been eliminated by themselves.

Wei Qing and others all expressed their approval of the emperor. Basically, those who can be in the hall now are the main war faction.

The rest only hope to ensure the livelihood of the domestic people on the basis of fighting, and they do not completely refuse to go to war.

[What does Liu Heng think of Jia Yi’s suggestions in this regard? 】

[He did not express his attitude directly, nor did he give any rewards or punishments to Jia Yi. 】

[However, there were indeed some changes in the way we treated the Huns. 】

[Of course, it’s hard to say how effective Jia Yi’s words were.The situation in the early Han Dynasty still made Liu Heng maintain the method of making peace, and the differentiation and wooing of the Xiongnu were also carried out. 】

[Even when Chanyu invaded the Han Dynasty with [-] cavalry, Liu Heng still adopted a soft attitude toward the Huns and chose to settle the matter. 】
-
Han Dynasty, the first year before Emperor Wen.

Couldn't Liu Heng see that the Han Dynasty could not rely on the policy of peace?Of course he knew that this was the consensus of the entire Han Dynasty!
However, there are also far-sighted people among the Huns who view it in the same way.

However, the Xiongnu were not strong enough to directly overthrow the Han Dynasty, so they did not take action.

However, the Han Dynasty's national strength was still withering, and it was unable to take an offensive and directly overturn the unreliable peace agreement.

[Usually, after a dynasty is established, it often faces two situations. 】

[First, it is powerful but externally chaotic. After a series of setbacks and tribulations, external influences are completely eliminated and the unification of the dynasty is achieved. 】

[The other type is like the Han Dynasty, which was also founded in the early days, but its own strength is not much stronger than external forces. It is extremely vulnerable to interference from external forces. At the same time, it still has various problems of its own and can only seek solutions through various means. Preserve peace in exchange for time for development. 】【Of course, after a period of peace, what strategy to adopt is another question. 】
-
Qin Dynasty.

Qin Shihuang nodded, it was indeed the case.

After the Qin Dynasty unified the world, the remnants of the Six Kingdoms continued to cause chaos internally, and there were also foreign races looking at it externally.

Therefore, it is difficult to start a war again at the moment, and we can only gain time for development through various means.

Likewise, the reason why Great Qin was able to unify the six kingdoms in its own hands was inseparable from the continuous struggle of its ancestors in peacetime.

But the former king's way of seeking peace was definitely not the Han Dynasty's method of making peace!
Of course, these are not his main questions. His only question is, how will the Xiongnu tribe become stronger in the future?
You know, in his current period, the Xiongnu can be destroyed with one hand, why will it bring such a big threat to the Central Plains in the future! ——
Song Dynasty, the first year of Kaibao.

Zhao Kuangyin was silent again. The situation of the founding of the Song Dynasty was indeed roughly the same.

Although some miracles need to be developed, some are simply crushed.

The methods of crushing are basically the same, but development requires a lot of effort, combined with the background of each era, and each has its own differences.

in order to achieve peaceful development.

Looking at the future of the Song Dynasty and the various behaviors of Zhao Guangyi's descendants, although he, Zhao Kuangyin, brought peace to the Song Dynasty, the people of the next three generations were simply trash. He really wanted to beat these people one by one!
As long as there was a normal emperor, the peaceful period he fought for for the Song Dynasty would not be like that. He would continue to fall into humiliation and lose the face of the Central Plains!
He clearly just wanted to restrain the behavior of military generals, but he never thought of losing his bravery!

You know, he himself was born as a military commander. Isn't this digging his own grave?

As Zhao Kuangyi's expression continued to change, the eyes of Zhao Guangmei and others were filled with worry.

But I saw Zhao Kuangyi sigh deeply: I suddenly understand why the ancient emperors yearned for immortality and even did all kinds of ridiculous things. "

It's useless to say anything. For the founder of a dynasty, this dynasty is the result of his life, so he naturally attaches great importance to it.

It will be handed over to descendants only after the longevity of life is helpless.

Therefore, he wanted to cultivate an excellent heir, but the descendants of Song Dynasty had already disappointed him extremely.

It is better for him to live longer and solve all the problems!
[There are many opinions about the origin of the Xiongnu. 】

[Some people believe that the Xiongnu and the ancestors of the Central Plains are from the same clan, while others believe that the Xiongnu is not a single ethnic group in the north, but a collective name for many northern nomadic peoples such as Guifang and Chanyu. 】

[But in any case, the Huns were initially an extremely loose, separatist tribal alliance, each occupying one side. 】

[Although they all have conflicts with the Central Plains Dynasty, they are not a unified regime. 】

[Although the Central Plains was not a unified political power at that time, the Central Plains' rejection of foreign countries was unified, so they were never able to form an effective infringement on the composition of the Central Plains. 】

[In the 26th year of the Qin Dynasty, the Qin State annexed the six countries and unified the Central Plains, and then claimed to be the emperor. 】

[With the unification of the Central Plains through battles, the unification of the grasslands also gradually took shape, but it was ultimately one step behind the Central Plains. 】

[At that time, the Xiongnu and other tribes in the north and south of the Yinshan Mountains had united, but they still did not form a complete unity and could not form an effective threat to the Central Plains. 】
