I Want To Be Qin II

As Yingzheng's confidant, Meng Tian is naturally aware of Yingzheng's worries about the land of Bashu. This is a natural granary and the place where troubles are most likely to arise.

Ever since King Huiwen merged Ba and Shu, Daqin has never left Bashu heavily guarded, which is the most important reason why Bashu has always lived in peace.

However, Bashu is such an important place, without heavy guards, and cannot be controlled in the hands, anyone will feel uneasy.

Therefore, Ying Zheng attaches great importance to Ying Gao's expedition to the extreme south, because Ying Gao is rich and can continue to invest funds.

Coupled with the slaves plundered from the south this time, it is enough to completely open up this road, allowing the Great Qin court to control Bashu to the extreme at once.

Meng Tian knows that both Ying Gao and Ying Zheng are ambitious people, and they are also the kind of people with extraordinary ambitions who are determined to win the world.

Their desire to control power is amazing.

For this, Meng Tian is also very optimistic. He knows in his heart that since the father and son Ying Zheng and Ying Gao attach so much importance to the South Xianyang Road, within a few years, this road will definitely be successfully dug.

With a thought in his mind, Meng Tian turned to the official responsible for the construction of the Chi Road, and said, "Don't worry about this matter, you will continue to dig. Lord Wu An will go south to Bashu soon, and I will discuss this matter with him."

"promise."

Nodding his head, a look of joy appeared on Gong Shuqing's face. He knew in his heart that Meng Tian was just a general.

In the final analysis, the matter of building Chidao still depends on the ability of Lord Wu'an of the Great Qin Dynasty. Gongshuqing knows that whether it is Quyuanli that swept the entire Guanzhong or all the good things, they all came from this young master.

Moreover, the excavation of the Xianyang South Road also came from Yinggao's idea.

Of course, the most important point is that Ying Gao holds the Jiannan Chamber of Commerce and the Peacock Chamber of Commerce by himself, and plunders wealth from the entire Central Plains. With capital investment, the excavation can be more successful this time.

Watching Gong Shuqing leave, Meng Tian couldn't help but smile wryly. He didn't expect that in just a few years, Ying Gao had grown to such a height that he was able to give the Great Qin government a certain amount of confidence.

At this moment, Meng Tian was completely clear,

How big is the gap between Fusu and others and Ying Gao?

This time standing in line, Mengshi seems to have lost one step to Wang's, but fortunately his son Mengliao had a foresight back then, even though he was one step behind, he would not be too far behind by Wang's.

.........

The army went south.

It has never been a simple matter. The actions of hundreds of thousands of people not only need to greet the local government offices in advance, but also need to reserve luggage.

After all, it is a big problem for hundreds of thousands of people to eat horse chews, and the road to Shu is so difficult that it is difficult to go to the sky. This is not a joke.

However, where the roads are difficult, bandits are most likely to be born, and this is true in the lands of Bashu and Lingnan.

In history, with Zhao Tuo's lessons learned in Baiyue, Ying Gao will naturally be on guard. In his opinion, Bashu is not safe, and this is one of the purposes of digging the Xianyang South Road.

Ying Gao knew in his heart that the Shu Road passes through the Qinling Mountains and Daba Mountains. The mountains are high and the valleys are deep, the roads are rugged, and it is difficult to pass. Li Bai once wrote a poem "The Road to Shu is Difficult", expressing the difficulty of the Road to Shu.

What he knew better was the record in the Qin Palace classics, that in the fifth year of King Zhou Shenliang, King Huiwen was caught in a dilemma of behavior.

At that time, there was civil strife in the Bashu area. King Huiwen wanted to take the opportunity to win the Bashu area, which he had long coveted for three points, but he was worried that the road to Shu would be difficult and difficult to succeed;

In this regard, the Prime Minister Zhang Yi advocated that it is better to attack South Korea, but the general Sima Cuo advocated taking the opportunity to divide his troops to destroy Shu.

Sima wrongly said that the Qin State was weak and small, and if the Bashu area could be acquired, not only would the land area be expanded, but the wealth and wealth of the Bashu area would be enough to make the Qin State rich and strong.

Moreover, Ba and Shu can attack Chu by water: "If you win Shu, you will win Chu, and if Chu dies, the world will be united!

As a result, King Qin Huiwen made a final decision and dispatched Sima Cuo and Du Weimo to dig the Jinniu Road, successively attacking Shu and Ba, thus laying a solid foundation for the future unification of the Qin Empire in terms of economy and military geography. Strong economic and military base.

On the horse, Ying Gaonan looked at Bashu, couldn't help but sighed with emotion, and said: "Take the road of Shu, get Bashu, that's why, always rule the world!"

In China's thousands of years of history, if you can get Hanzhong and Bashu south of the Qinling Mountains, you can often achieve the career of king and hegemony.

Such examples abound in thousands of years of long years.

Qin conquered Bashu and finally annexed the six kingdoms; Chu and Han fought each other, and Liu Bang relied on the Guanzhong Plain, Hanzhong Basin and Sichuan Basin as the rear area. Finally, after repeated defeats, relying on a strong economic foundation, he defeated Xiang Yu and established the Han Dynasty .

During the period of the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang used the Hanzhong Basin and the Sichuan Basin as his bases, and made many northern expeditions, creating a military miracle of using offense as defense.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, after Li Yuan raised troops in Jinyang and captured Guanzhong, he quickly went south to capture Hanzhong, Bashu, and Jingxiang areas, and finally laid the foundation for the founding of the Tang Dynasty.

The Northern Song Dynasty also took Sichuan first, and finally captured Jiangnan to unify the whole country.

It can be said that if you want to rule the world, you must take Hanzhong and Bashu.

Before this, Ying Gao had learned about the Great Qin's rule over Bashu, and he knew in his heart that Great Qin's rule over Bashu seemed indestructible, but in fact it was too nihilistic.

Once a general blocks the Shu Road, the Daqin court will lose control of the entire Bashu, which is the most dangerous, especially when the Daqin is about to go east.

Historically, until the fall of the Great Qin Dynasty, the Great Qin court did not deploy heavy troops in the land of Bashu. This is the most important reason.

The land of Bashu is a natural granary, enough to feed tens of thousands of troops. The problem of the Shu Road will not be solved until later generations.

When Ying Gao realized this, he had the idea of ​​digging a way. Anyway, in the future of Daqin, there will be too many captives and slaves.

These people, instead of letting them go, or building Abang Palace and others, it is better to dig the Xianyang South Road. In this way, the land of Bashu is really the back garden of Daqin.

Even if there is an accident, once Guanzhong and Bashu act as linkages, the Great Qin Empire will not fall apart all of a sudden, and there is no room for counterattack.

Ying Gao's actions have always been for the sake of Great Qin Wanshi, not just focusing on the present.

After all, the current Daqin is just like a rainbow, and he is moving towards the direction of the empire. He doesn't need him to worry too much, what he cares about is the future.

In other words, a hundred years after the First Emperor.
