Daily Life In Qin Dynasty - Chapter 230
Chapter 230 Royal conquest?
“Mo Qing thinks, how should the next layout unfold?”
After Fu Su left, Ying Zheng and Mo Jun started chatting again, but in their position, even a casual chat would have a huge impact on the matters involved.
It’s like Ying Zheng casually proposed the ‘layout’. It seems to be in a casual tone, but what he actually asks is about which country Qin should attack next, when, and whether it should attack?
When he heard Ying Zheng’s question, Mo Jun thought for a while and replied: “The minister is a civil servant, not good at military affairs.”
This is the truth.
Jun Mo has traveled so far, although he has indeed learned a lot about marching and fighting in his spare time, and even found many researches on military books in his previous life from the depths of his memory, such as “Thirty-Six Strategies” and the like.
But marching and fighting is a process of accumulating experience. Unless you are a genius like Huo Qubing who is born to fight, otherwise, before there is actual combat, no matter how much you say, it will be just talk on paper.
If it’s something else, it’s okay for Mo Jun to say hello. But if something like war is wrong, it will kill people.
However, Ying Zheng didn’t seem to believe Mo Jun’s answer. When he heard Mo Jun’s words, he immediately said happily: “Everyone understands, but Mo Qing only knows a little about military affairs, right? The widow came to throw bricks to attract jade first, and Mo Qing also came to hear what the widow’s plan is?”
Military and military power are two different things.
Ying Zheng does not want others to get involved in military power, but military advice and suggestions are welcome.
It’s just that for Mo Jun, he doesn’t want to touch military power or the military at present. There is no other reason, mainly laziness.
Especially when Mo Jun just sorted it out and found that the life of Ying Zheng, the King of Qin, let alone him, could not even be compared with a dog, Mo Jun became more determined in his original idea.
If hard work is not for enjoyment, then what is the meaning of life?
Struggle for a lifetime.
Fame, wealth, and power are all there, but it is only when he is dying that he suddenly realizes that although he has worked hard all his life, he has not enjoyed the benefits of his achievements at all for decades. Does that mean that he has not gained anything?
“In the first battle in South Korea, Qin did not suffer too many losses. It can even be said that apart from the consumption of food and grass, there was almost no loss of personnel. The strength of the Qin army was well preserved, and with the help of South Korea’s victory, the morale of the Qin army is also improving. Peak, so the widow intends to drive 400,000 troops to the north to attack Zhao and Wei at the same time…”
Damn it!
After Ying Zheng finished speaking, Mo Jun almost jumped up from the spot without being scared.
Although Mr. Mo has always been aware of Ying Zheng’s ambitions, is he playing too much this time? Qin’s national power is now in a period of rapid growth.
At this time, as the king of a country, Yingzheng Yujia’s personal conquest will indeed add fuel to the already imposing Qin army and become more fierce and brave.
But once an accident occurs, it may lead to the great situation of Qin State, and fall into chaos again!
“Your Majesty, I think this is inappropriate.”
Mr. Mo quickly stood up and cupped his hands.
At this time, no matter what the true thoughts in his heart are, the first thing Mo Jun has to do is to show his attitude, let others know that Ying Zheng’s idea of ”nonsense” has nothing to do with him, and be careful not to be “touched”.
But in the next second, Ying Zheng suddenly showed a ‘weird’ smile at Mo Jun, and said: “Really? But I think this is a good move, after all, I have already made a decision.”
Mr. Mo: “······”
Gan!
Then why are you so **** asking me?
Touch porcelain?
“Is it strange why the widow suddenly made such an ‘impulsive’ decision?”
Ying Zheng asked with a smile.
Before Mr. Mo could answer, Ying Zheng continued to speak: “Actually, not long ago, the widowed grandmother’s health suddenly deteriorated. If there is no accident, I am afraid that she will not survive this year.”
“And just a few days ago, my grandmother called the widow over and said a few words, the meaning of which was almost to hope that the widow could give Mr. Changping a chance…”
At the end of this sentence, the smile on Ying Zheng’s face has gradually disappeared, replaced by a wordless calm.
Hearing what Ying Zheng said, Mo Jun pursed his lips slightly, not knowing what to say for a while.
The Empress Dowager Huayang said that she wanted to give Mr. Changping a chance, but in fact she wanted Ying Zheng to give the “Chu foreign relatives” a chance.
As the Queen Mother of Qin.
But until he was about to die, what he was thinking about in his mind was still the affairs of Chu State.
The grandmother was dedicated to Chu, and cultivated a group of hostile foreign relatives for herself in Qin.
The queen mother adulterated the eunuch, intending to usurp power.
With these two women on the table in this life, it can really be regarded as Ying Zheng’s bad luck for eight lifetimes.
It’s no wonder that Yingzheng didn’t establish a queen in his whole life. Now that he hasn’t left a little psychological shadow on women, Yingzheng has strong willpower.
“I don’t know anything about military affairs, but if the king insists on the conquest, at least in terms of food and grass, I can guarantee that there will be no future troubles. It’s just that during the period of the king’s personal conquest, how should the country’s political affairs be handled?”
Mr. Mo could only change the subject.
What the Qin State lacks most now is food and grass, not to mention that there are still quite a few savings in the treasury.
Soon there will be another autumn harvest. After the catastrophe, there will be a big harvest. Perhaps because of the snowstorm last year, this year’s year is even better than last year, so this year’s harvest must be better.
“Let Fusu handle the government affairs! As the eldest son of the widow, it’s time for him to learn about this aspect.”
“Fu Su?”
Jun Mo was stunned again.
He doesn’t know whether to say that Ying Zheng trusts Fusu too much, or is he just joking. Anyway, Fusu is just a kid in his early ten years old, are you sure?
Fortunately, in the next second, Ying Zheng continued: “Since it was entrusted by my grandmother this time, I plan to give those people one last chance. And while the widow is away, the court will be handed over to you, Mo Qing.” After all, now in the court…you are the only one I trust.”
At the end, Ying Zheng took a deep look at Mo Jun.
And hearing what Ying Zheng said, Mo Jun also understood instantly. After a long time, Ying Zheng was addicted to fishing again, and planned to ‘fish’!
However, the “bait” thrown by Yingzheng this time is not small. After all, once Yingzheng leads Meng Ao, Wang Jian and others to march in person, it will almost mean that the entire Qin State will be completely empty.
If someone is really making trouble at this time, it is not a joke.
Yingzheng’s move is no longer simply trusting Mo Jun, but is basically planning to put the entire Qin State’s national destiny directly on Mo Jun’s shoulders.
