Da Qin: I exposed myself as a time traveler, why are you Zhao Gao panicking?

Chapter 161 I don’t want fame, I’m afraid there won’t be any battles to fight!

As Qin Chi explained, the plans for the three cities gradually became clear on the map.

A glimmer of admiration flashed in Zulong's eyes. He knew the importance of these three positions, and he also understood Qin Chi's intentions and vision.

Once these three cities are completed, they will become a solid barrier on the Qin border and lay a solid foundation for the prosperity and tranquility of the empire.

"Your Majesty, if these three cities are built in the shape of horns, they can usually promote the prosperity of commerce and exchange what is needed."

"Of course, in times of war, you can also send troops to garrison and reserve food and grass. You can attack when you advance, and you can defend when you retreat."

Qin Chi's voice was calm, and every word and sentence revealed careful consideration of strategy.

When Zulong heard this, his face gradually spread.

He knew very well that Qin Chi not only considered the development of commerce and trade during peacetime, but also took precautions and prepared for possible wars.

Such a layout not only conforms to the interests of Da Qin, but also ensures the tranquility of the border areas.

"Tingwei, did you carefully consider the place you chose?" Zulong asked. He needed to be fully sure of this decision.

"Your Majesty, as far as I know, these three places are all strategically important areas with fertile water and soil, suitable for garrisoning troops and farming."

Qin Chi replied that every decision he makes is based on detailed information.

Upon hearing this, Zu Long nodded in approval, and the worries in his heart completely dissipated at this moment.

Then he nodded with satisfaction and said: "That's very good!"

"Just go ahead and do it! Li Si and I will fully support you."

When Qin Chi saw this, he bowed his hands and said, "I obey your order!"

……

More than ten days later, General Meng Tian led the victorious army and returned triumphantly from the border.

At that time, the sun was rising in the east, and the morning glow was like a brocade, reflecting the whole team of people, their armor was shining, and their flags were fluttering in the wind, creating a majestic atmosphere.

Meng Tian and Meng Yi, wearing heavy armor and riding horses, looked majestic and majestic.

His eyes are like a torch, looking straight ahead, showing the demeanor of a general.

The officers and soldiers behind him were all in high spirits and marched with sonorous steps. Although they had been fighting for days, they were not tired at all, but showed a bit of fierceness.

This is the army who has returned from a victory, and he has a heroic and fearless aura.

Although there are traces of wind and sand on the faces of the soldiers, the sharpness and determination in their eyes cannot be concealed.

They experienced the baptism of blood and fire, fought for the Qin Dynasty, and fought for their home and country. Now they returned in triumph, their hearts full of pride and joy.

When this army entered the city, the people had already heard the news and came to welcome him!

But I saw them cheering for joy, as if they were about to pour out all their enthusiasm! !

When General Meng Tian saw this, he couldn't help but sigh!

This is what the people want, and it is also the value of the soldiers fighting bloody battles.

Ever since, the entire Xianyang City was immersed in this atmosphere of victory and glory.

Above the court, Zulong sat high on the dragon platform, his eyes like torches, scanning the generals who were kneeling before His Highness!

When the news came that Meng Tian led the victorious army to return in triumph, his face was filled with joy, and an unconcealable smile appeared on his lips!

"Meng Tian, ​​you have made outstanding achievements in this expedition and won glory and dignity for the Qin Dynasty. I am very pleased. I specially made you a general and bestowed you with thousands of gold coins and hundreds of brocades!"

Zu Long's voice was loud and majestic, and every word revealed his appreciation and commendation for Meng Tian.

Meng Tian bowed to thank you, his face full of excitement: "My lord, thank you for your kindness!"

"I will dedicate myself to my life and die to repay His Majesty for his kindness!"

Zu Long nodded and turned to Han Xin: "Han Xin, although you are young, you are wise and brave. You have made great achievements in this expedition. I will not treat you badly. You can tell me anything you want!"

Han Xin heard the words and was excited.

He was originally a commoner, but if it weren't for Qin Chi, he wouldn't be soaring to the sky now! Now, he has been personally rewarded by Zu Long, and he cherishes this honor and trust!

I saw Han Xin bowing and saluting, and said in a loud voice: "My lord, if you don't want fame, I'm afraid there won't be any battles!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the court suddenly fell into silence!

The officials looked at each other with shock in their eyes!

But I didn't expect that this mere tourist, a commoner in Huaiyin and the leader of Guizhou, would actually speak such heroic words.

All the ministers looked sideways at Han Xin and looked him up and down.

When Zulong saw this, he burst into laughter!

His laughter echoed throughout the court, breaking the brief silence.

He nodded and looked at Han Xin, his eyes shining with admiration, and said: "Han Xin, you are indeed a general!"

"Being brave and resourceful, and not afraid of strong enemies, this is what I admire!"

"But since ancient times in the Qin Dynasty, meritorious deeds must be rewarded, and transgressions must be punished!"

"According to my will, Han Xin canonized as General of the Left!"

"I want to conquer the world and unify the world, so you should have the opportunity to make achievements! You don't have to worry about not having a fight. As long as you have the ability and determination, I will definitely give you a broader world to display your talents."

Han Xin heard the words and was excited.

He bowed deeply and said in a firm voice: "I will do my best to live up to His Majesty's high expectations!"

The officials in the court gradually recovered from the shock. Suddenly, they looked at each other with doubts in their hearts.

Isn’t the world unified?

Where does the idea of ​​conquering the world come from?

The ministers were doubting the clouds, and they were inquiring with each other, as if they were inquiring.

Everyone knows that since the First Emperor swept across Liuhe and unified the eight wastelands, there has been peace in the sea, and there has been no trouble in the world, so he deserves to enjoy the blessings of peace.

However, just now, Zulong mentioned the conquest again, which is really puzzling.

Some mature and prudent ministers thought to themselves.

Mo Fei has a police officer or a minister?

However, considering the recent side reports, except for Mengshi leading his troops against the Xiongnu, there were no additional wars, and I feel that this idea is difficult to establish.

As a result, all officials were silent and doubtful.

In the court hall, there was a lot of discussion and whispering.

The voices of discussion came and went for a long time.

Seeing the confused look of the officials, Zulong smiled slightly and spoke slowly, with a majestic and solemn voice:

"My lords, please have no doubt. Although the world has been unified, there are still unknown lands and unsubdued people beyond the four seas."

"I want to inherit the ambition of my ancestors and unify the country, so that all the world will be the land of the Great Qin, and all the people will be the people of the Great Qin."

"Therefore, the conquest is not for personal gain, but actually for the livelihood of the world."

When all the ministers heard this, they were all horrified and moved.

Beyond the four seas, are there still unknown places?

Could it be that your Majesty also wants to conquer such a foreign land?

Thinking of this, some ministers could not help but step out of the courtroom and bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the land of Huawai is barren and dangerous, and cannot be compared to the nine states of the Central Plains."

"I heard that this land is full of miasma and ferocious beasts, and is inhabitable by humans! Your Majesty's benevolent heart should put all the people first, and it is not appropriate to venture into dangerous places lightly."

Immediately, in the court, another minister stood up and echoed, saying: "Your Majesty, the nine states of the Central Plains have fertile land and rich products, which are enough for the people of my dynasty to thrive."

"Even if we capture that foreign land, it will be of little use!"

"Moreover, its people are still ignorant and difficult to educate, which may become a burden to our government."
