Daqin: I am Zhao Gao, the highest Zhao Gao

Zhangtai Palace is equivalent to the imperial study of those later dynasties.

At this moment, the First Emperor was sitting on that throne, looking at the music one after another, his brows furrowed, and on that majestic face, there was a bit of coldness.

Obviously, at this moment, this First Emperor has been angry.

Zhao Gao on the side, standing there with his hands down, the afterglow of his eyes swept towards the recital.

Rong Di is visiting!

If Rong Di’s army attacked in a big way, it would be enough, and with the current military strength of Daqin, it would be enough to sweep Rong Di.

The current Great Qin is not comparable to those later dynasties.

The Great Qin Iron Horse and the Great Qin Ruishi are quite fierce in combat effectiveness, and the race wars on horseback such as Rong Di and the Xiongnu, the casualty ratio is often 1:2, 1:3, or even more exaggerated.

But the problem is that these invaders will not confront you head-on at all.

Raids.

That’s right, it’s an attack.

These peoples on horseback come and go like the wind and without a trace, and their movements are erratic, but they are extremely fast.

At this time, the territory of Daqin was so vast, and the long border line was always an overlooked place, and these Rong Di very cunningly attacked the weak areas on the border, frantically killing and looting, and then slipped away before the arrival of Daqin’s army.

“Pass the order down, let Fusu, Meng Tian, and Li Si come to discuss the matter.” The First Emperor turned his head and looked at Zhao Gao.

“No.” Hearing the voice of the First Emperor, Zhao Gao’s heart was cold, but his face did not show it, and after answering, he walked outside.

After walking out of the main hall and instructing the chief eunuch to handle the orders of the First Emperor, Zhao Gao walked back to the Zhangtai Palace again and came to the front of the First Emperor.

Standing with his hands down, Zhao Gao’s heart began to think.

For mythological TV series, he knows very well.

If you look at the development trajectory of the TV series, it should be the first time that Zhao Gao went to the dynasty as the commander of the CRRC Mansion, and then Zhao Gao and Prime Minister Li Si conspired to establish the so-called ‘Zhongyi Hall’, which dealt a severe blow to Juxiantang.

Later, when this Rong Di incident appeared, Gongzi Fusu and Meng Tian took the opportunity to teach Zhao Gao a lesson without mercy.

If it weren’t for the First Emperor’s softening of heart, just this time would be enough to drop Zhao Gao’s hands and feet.

And the current situation, obviously, has a certain difference from the mythological TV series.

Perhaps, it is because of the butterfly effect caused by his crossing.

At this moment, Zhao Gao thought so in his heart.

About a moment later, Gongzi Fusu, Meng Tian, and Li Si, led by the chief eunuch, walked into the Zhangtai Palace.

“Fusu, meet the emperor father.”

“Chen Lisi, meet Your Majesty.”

“Chen Mengtian, meet Your Majesty.”

The First Emperor, who was sitting at the top, nodded slightly, and then said directly to the point: “Recently, Rong Di has been constantly invading my southwestern frontier of Daqin, and the border counties are in a hurry, you Ai Qing, what good plan can you have?” ”

Li Si, who was the head of a hundred officials, was the first to salute: “Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he should seize the time and build the Great Wall as soon as possible. ”

Hearing Li Si’s words, the First Emperor bowed his head slightly, looked at Meng Tian, and said in a deep voice: “Yes, the matter of building the Great Wall cannot be delayed, and this matter will be handed over to Meng Aiqing to supervise.” ”

“Lord, Lord.” Meng Tian answered directly.

“Your Majesty, beyond the Great Wall, there is also a large amount of Daqin land, and there, there are also the people of my Daqin, and the minister has been thinking about this for a long time and has come up with a way, that is, to build a straight road from Xianyang to Jiuyuan County.”

When he said this, Meng Tian paused for a moment, and then continued: “If the straight path is completed, then sending cavalry from Xianyang to the Great Wall will only be a day and a night at most, so that I can keep the northern part of Daqin forever.” ”

The First Emperor bowed his head slightly, “Meng Aiqing’s words are reasonable. ”

At this moment, Zuo Xiang Li Si spoke: “Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is impossible. ”

“Your Majesty, my Great Qin annihilation of the Six Kingdoms consumed great manpower, material and financial resources, and in recent years, another 500,000 troops have pacified the barbarians in South Vietnam, and even built a road to the south.”

“At present, the road has not yet been completed, the consumption on the South Vietnamese side is very large, and there is not much left in the national treasury, if the straight road is built at this time, I am afraid that the national treasury will be overwhelmed.”

“Therefore, the minister thought that it would be the best choice to wait until the southern road was completed and South Vietnam was completely stabilized, and then start building the straight road to the north.”

Zhao Gao, who was standing with his hands down, contracted his pupils slightly after hearing Li Si’s words.

By this time, he could already determine that this place was definitely not just as simple as in the mythological TV series.

The Li Si in the mythical TV series was just blindly led by Zhao Gao by the nose, and there was no opinion.

But at this moment, this categorical voice, this thinking about the overall situation, is all illustrating the demeanor of this eternal face.

“Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Zuo Xiang’s words are inappropriate.” Meng Tian took a step and said in a deep voice.

“South Vietnam initially decided that the hundreds of thousands of troops of South Vietnam needed to guard the frontiers and guard against the counterattack of the South Vietnamese, and in addition to the South Vietnamese army, our Daqin now has about 500,000 troops, leaving only 300,000 left except for guarding Xianyang City and various counties.”

“An army of 300,000 people, it is difficult to take care of the entire north, the Rong Di and Xiongnu in the north have always been eyeing the frontiers of my Daqin, and if they are not careful, those barbarians will break through the border and invade the hinterland of my Daqin to burn, kill and loot, and if there is a straight road, these hidden dangers will be solved.”

“The construction of the straight road was originally for the sake of the people of Daqin in the north, and if the national treasury continued to be insufficient, an additional ten percent of taxes would be collected, and a batch of conscription would be recruited, so that the straight road could be built.”
