LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 12
"Knock knock knock-"
The morning bell rang in a group of three rings, and the huge Xianyang City gradually woke up from the dream.
Kirin Hall.
This is the place where Yingzheng ascended to power.
At this time, there were already two columns of hundred officials.
"Your Majesty has arrived!"
shouted as the palace people shouted.
Ying Zheng walked out from the side and sat on the main seat of the main hall.
"Your Majesty, Holy Ann!" the
ministers bowed.
"Aiqing is flat!"
"Your Majesty Xie!"
Then, a heroic middle-aged man dressed in black stood up.
This person is Meng Tian, the general of Great Qin, Qin Shi Huang's childhood friend, and he has a very good relationship.
"Your Majesty, in recent days, the Xiongnu have repeatedly invaded our Hetao area, and the minister led the army to attack, although the Xiongnu soldiers and horses were driven out, but they failed to cause much damage.
Meng Tian said truthfully.
He was not a merit-mongering man.
If it is an ordinary general who is greedy for merit, I am afraid that if he says it, he will win a big victory.
But Meng Tian is this kind of pertinent person, and the Meng family has been loyal to Daqin for generations.
Meng Tian's words are always the most honest and to the point.
"General Meng, don't be upset, the Hun cavalry is thousands of miles away, coming and going like the wind, it's not your problem.
Zuo Xiang Li Si arched his hand and explained Meng Tian.
Hearing this, Meng Tian arched his hand to Li Si and said.
"Li Xiang, don't be relieved, what the general said is the truth, our army is mainly infantry, even if it is equipped with cavalry, it can't beat the Hun cavalry on horseback.
As Meng Tian said, this is an indisputable fact.
Great Qin as a whole is an agrarian civilization, how can you fight cavalry battles with other nomads?
Isn't this purely a fantasy?
At this time, Meng Tian continued to speak: "Your Majesty, the matter of building the Great Wall should be paid attention to!"
The others also echoed.
"Your Majesty, it's time to think about building the Great Wall!" Hearing
this, Ying Zheng, who was at the top, thought slightly and did not speak.
In fact, it was he who proposed the construction of the Great Wall.
Ying Zheng knew at the beginning that he could not win against the Xiongnu on horseback, and only the infantry on the ground could crush the Xiongnu.
But the Huns are not stupid!
They don't stand up to you at all, they run when you come, and sweep the village when you leave.
It was this simple tactic that made hundreds of thousands of armored soldiers in Great Qin exhausted, and there was no way to take the Huns.
Therefore, Ying Zheng had no choice but to come up with the idea of connecting the old Great Wall of the three families of Yan, Zhao and Qin before.
Build a new Great Wall to resist the invasion of the Xiongnu.
However, today's Yingzheng has become a little hesitant.
First, to build the Great Wall, hundreds of thousands of people were recruited.
Daqin is really hard to afford.
Second, and most importantly, this is the most important point.
Because the saddle developed by Yingwu gave him hope of defeating the Huns.
Half a day.
Ying Zheng looked at Meng Tian below and asked,
"Suppose, my Great Qin can create a cavalry that is not weaker than the Hun barbarians, do you have the confidence to defeat them?"
Hearing this, Meng Tian was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Ying Zheng meant?
"Your Majesty, are you going to start training cavalry now?"
"I do have this intention!" Hearing
Ying Zheng's words, Meng Tian was a little confused.
Your Majesty is a wise and martial artist on weekdays.
Why are you dizzy today?"
"Your Majesty, the training of cavalry is not something that can be achieved overnight at all, and in a hurry, it is difficult to form combat strength at all. "
Meng Tian, an honest man, speaks straightforwardly, but he didn't save face for Ying Zheng at all!
Ying Zheng didn't think so.
But the Zhongshu standing on the side made Zhao Gao anxious.
"Bold!General Meng, how can you question Your Majesty?" Zhao
Gao said angrily at Zhao Gao in a shrill voice that belonged to a eunuch.
Meng Tian glanced at it obliquely, and said coldly: "Hmph! The major affairs of the country, how can you have a place for eunuchs to speak?"
All the courtiers, no one spoke, they all watched quietly.
Meng Tian and Zhao Gao have always been at odds, this is the consensus of the big guys.
In fact, most people don't look down on Zhao Gao, a flattering and deceitful eunuch.
But Zhao Gao won the favor of Yingzheng and was very favored.
The ministers also dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.
Only Meng Tian, upright, every time he comes back from the border, he is so high and low that he scolds Zhao Gao.
"Meng Aiqing, Zhao Gao is also well-intentioned, don't embarrass him. Yingzheng
, who was sitting on the main seat, smiled and spoke, and became a peacemaker.
However, it also reflects Yingzheng's favor for Meng Tian from the side.
Even if Meng Tian mercilessly refuted his thoughts, Ying Zheng was not angry at all.
In fact, Ying Zheng is such a person.
Except for the matter of cultivating immortals, he has never been rigid and self-serving, and is good at listening to opinions.
"Your Majesty, the matter of training cavalry is still on hold for the time being. For now, let's start building the Great Wall!" Meng
Tian admonished again.
"Chen Li Si seconded!"
"Chen Feng Quji seconded!"
......
In an instant, above the court, all the ministers admonished one after another.
Seeing this, Ying Zheng was not angry.
smiled mysteriously, and then said: "Ladies and gentlemen, don't be in a hurry to make up your mind, I am going to go to the school with Zhuqing and show you something!"
"No!"
Although the ministers were confused, His Majesty had an order and did not dare to disobey.
So, under the leadership of Ying Zheng, the ministers went to the school.
