Chapter 26: Northern Strategy

"Why does Mr. Qin laugh for no reason?" King Qin asked.

"My lord, the minister thinks. The Xiongnu wanted to rob my Daqin because of the disaster. This is a good deal to be delivered to the door." Shang Wen stopped Xiao Jiujiu in his heart. Speaking uprightly.

"Oh, why, sir, come and listen." Qin Wang waved his hand and said.

"My lord, this year the northern Xiongnu suffered a drought, and cattle and horses will definitely suffer losses. In other words, the horsepower of the Xiongnu has suffered to a certain extent. It will not be able to penetrate further into my inland. Moreover, the purpose is very simple, that is to plunder. . Is such a Huns terrible?"

"Qin Keqing. You don't know how powerful the Xiongnu soldiers are. They come and go without a trace. I, Daqin, dispatched a large army. Is it easy to deal with? Even if it is equipped with the equipment you designed. However, there is not so much in a short time. , The effect of enhancing combat power is really limited." Feng Quji obviously felt that Shang Wen's idea was whimsical, and dismissed it disdainfully.

"Master Feng, listen to me." Shang Wen smiled slightly.

"The Xiongnu showed that it was very strong last time. But this is also very strong before the raid. But the overall strength is still very weak. On the front, it is difficult to resist the thunder strike of our army. It can be said that this year's The drought has weakened the strength of the Huns. The strength of the Huns depends on horses. Horses cannot eat grass. Their combat power has been weakened a lot. Even if the Huns are more powerful, the horses’ combat power is imperceptibly weakened. They will not be able to fight for a long time. Only in the short term.

Shangwen paused and sorted out the thoughts in his mind. After all, he thought of it temporarily.

"Also, I also need a cavalry team in Da Qin. When I entered Qin, I invented things like stirrups and horseshoes. These Huns did not have them. Even though the Huns were astute in riding skills, they did not reach the level of being flat on horses. The point is that Daqin can concentrate on building such things. Concentrate on strength and train in a short period of time. Quickly grow into a cavalry unit." Shang Wen said.

"But..." Feng Quji didn't say anything.

"There is also that our army is mainly dispatching cavalry this time. The army only plays a role in deployment. Therefore, the cavalry must go deep into the enemy army. The combat power of the horses is the key. I suggest feeding the horses with fine grain to maintain combat strength. . In this way, we can go deep into the enemy's realm. We will strike down the Xiongnu thoroughly." Shang Wen said with a frenzy.

"Mr. Qin is right. The last time my army suffered a big loss from Li Mu's frontier army. It was in the cavalry. This time. My Daqin also has a cavalry unit in the true sense. And it is independent. Mr. Qin's. High insight!" Meng Tian stood up and said. Last time, Meng Tian and Meng Gao attacked Zhao Guo. Li Mu led the frontier army and unconsciously attacked the Qin army. that time. Meng Tian had a deep understanding of how powerful the cavalry was. This time I heard that Shang Wen wanted to establish an independent cavalry unit. Rather than the previous distribution properties. Make up your mind immediately. To become the chief military officer of this cavalry unit. Sweep away the haze of the past.

King Qin nodded. Approved Shangwen's ideas.

Shang Wen nodded when he saw King Qin. But it's just such a small benefit. Surely it doesn't make sense of civil and military, the military commander is fine. After all, the composition of the army has been reformed. But Wenchen worried about the situation in which the war was defeated. They have to clean up the mess. So directly give them some benefits. Yes.

"King Qin. To an adult, general. In the past, we were passively attacked. This time, we took the initiative to attack the Huns uncharacteristically. This was common sense, and beat the Huns by surprise. Moreover, this time we have the cavalry. It will completely occupy the territory of the Huns. The hidden dangers in the north will be completely eliminated. The horse farm of the Huns will become the horse farm of our Daqin. It will become the main source of meat for our Daqin. Every year, our Daqin can obtain horses and skins through trade. A class, now I feel that I have completely taken the Northern Huns. There is no such hidden danger. There is also a source of main materials. With meat, my Daqin soldiers can eat more full, better, and more powerfully to kill. The enemy. It can even support Guanzhong, Bashu and other places. The people there not only have meat, but also cattle and sheep. There is also a wider land." Shang Wen described the various benefits of occupation. Li Si, Wei Liao and the others suddenly lighted up. Realize that this is a good opportunity.

"The minister thought that Qin Keqing was right." Wei Liao, the lieutenant of the state, was the strategist of the military strategy, realizing that attacking the Huns now has more benefits than fighting the six countries. Also stood up and agreed with Shang Wen's opinion.

"Occupying the north, getting more than just meat, is a fundamental guarantee for my Daqin cavalry. The cavalry has an absolute advantage against infantry. In the future, my Daqin will have a trump card in sweeping the six countries. This It's a big profit. Please Wang Shangenzhun." Wei Liao stepped aside after speaking.

"My lord, the minister also thinks this is a great benefit. Da Qin spends countless money every year to buy horses, cattle and sheep. In this way, Da Qin can save a lot of money and also has a source of horses, cattle and sheep. There is also Da Qin who wants to immigrate and assimilate the Huns. In this way, Da Qin has natural warriors." Li Si said on the table.

Oh my god, Li Si was thinking too far. I think of the assimilation of immigrants. I have to admit that this is not as good as other people's political vision. But he is a Chinese-American somehow. I also know how Americans deal with Indians. I think Li Si's idea is not good. Not very reliable. There is not much benefit visible. Moreover, there is no long-term plan. correct. Can build roads. Catch the Huns to build roads. Hehe.

"Prime Minister Li’s opinion. The ministers dare not agree. The minister believes that the Huns in the north are unruly and rebellious. There are also Donghu in the east, who are also unruly and rebellious. I emigrated to Qin and I must suffer. In terms of number, habits, and habits. The above is not tenable. It is easy to be driven out by others. After all, this is on other people’s turf. People occupy a geographical advantage. This will definitely suffer. The Weichen’s idea is to encourage immigration, defeat and defeat by the army, it is best to completely Annihilation of the Huns. As long as there is no army of the Huns on the grassland, there is no danger. At this time, we encourage immigrants to capture the Huns alive, or kill the Huns. If the Huns are captured alive, the state will buy them with a certain amount of money. These Huns became slaves. We use these slaves to build roads. Do hard work. This way we can save a lot of manpower." Shangwin paused.

"There is also the benefit of immigrants. You can use your money to buy some daily necessities. I, Daqin, can not send out a large army, but send out a small group of troops. It can train the army. It can also become rich. It can also completely eliminate the unruly Huns." Shang Wen Speaking of.

Everyone gasped. This technique is too vicious. It can be said to be thorough. There is no room left. Full consideration of all factors.

Spicy, cold, and conscious of the overall situation. All the talents have re-understood the other side of Shangwen.

Poor Shangwen didn't know. These are Americans dealing with Indians. Or the Portuguese Spanish method of dealing with indigenous people.
