Chapter 408
"If someone told Lao Chen before, one day I, Daqin, would be troubled by the fact that the territory was too big, Lao Chen would definitely think that this person was too capable of boasting, who would have thought that it would have become a reality now. "
After a long time, Wang Jian muttered.
As the oldest person in the court today, and an old minister of many dynasties, Wang Jian is the most aware of the hard-won territory of Great Qin.
When Wang Jian was born, Daqin was still in power by King Zhaoxiang of Qin, although there were many victories and losses in the war with the Six Kingdoms, but the national strength accumulated over the years was basically exhausted, and almost every household in the land of Guanzhong had casualties, and the price of grain was even more inflated to the sky.
Subsequently, King Qin Xiaowen succeeded to the throne for three days, and King Xiang of Qin Zhuang died after only three years as the king of Qin, and Yingzheng, who was only thirteen years old, succeeded to the throne, but there was Lü Buwei in the court to control the power, and there were Cheng Jiao and others outside Xianyang who coveted the throne, and the entire Great Qin was in danger.
Fortunately, the first emperor was eloquent and strategic, and he cooperated with Wang Jian and other generals to sweep away threats such as Cheng Jiao, Chang Yu, and Lü Buwei in turn, and regain the supreme authority of Great Qin.
After that, it was the aftermath of Fen VI, who swept Liuhe continuously, and completed the great cause of unifying the Central Plains that the Qin kings dreamed of.
But at this moment, Great Qin has also reached its limit, even if the First Emperor wants to sweep the prairie and continue to expand outward, he is already powerless.
Moreover, although the Six Kingdoms were destroyed, the remnants of evil have not been eradicated, and they have been secretly colluding to try to subvert the rule of Great Qin.
Even within Great Qin, there was a situation of division, and the prime minister Wang Xuan and other powerful people have been trying to persuade the first emperor to implement the feudal system, and there are many people who do not cooperate with the county system.
The most anxious thing is that although the first emperor is not a living emperor, among the sons, there is no one who has become a weapon.
In the case that the First Emperor has gradually grown old, none of the sons can take over the throne of Great Qin, which is really the biggest hidden danger of Great Qin.
Once the First Emperor leaves, the huge Great Qin Empire will fall apart, let alone continue to go outward.
Moreover, years of natural and man-made disasters have also left the treasury empty enough to starve rats to death, and it is simply impossible to scrape together the money and food for foreign wars.
Wang Jian also died in the intrigue of the court, and simply said that he was sick and returned home to care for the elderly, out of sight and out of mind.
It's just that when I privately read the military review book and strategy, I will inevitably regret it.
It wasn't until Fusu was born that Wang Jian regained hope.
Not only did he directly take the prairie in several battles, but also showed a larger world to Yingzheng and Wang Jian and others, and established a grand vision of the empire on which the sun never sets.
What's even more rare is that Fusu is not only unmatched in martial arts, but also has a unique cultural rule, which directly makes the national strength of Great Qin skyrocket countless times in a few years, and it has reached a point that no one can imagine.
The territory area is nearly ten times more than when the Central Plains was just unified and the Great Qin Empire was established!
From Xianyang City to the most frontier of Great Qin, it has exceeded the distance of thousands of miles.
Not to mention walking, even the fastest birds have to fly for days and nights in a row to arrive.
If Seleucus and Rome can be taken in the future, the distance from Xianyang City to the frontier may exceed 20,000 li.
The speed of expansion made all the important ministers of the court dumbfounded, and they also had a feeling of being struggling.
In particular, the difficulty of communication with places in the extreme west, such as Persia, and the disconnection of information have become the most headache for everyone.
One of the very important reasons why Li You was transferred to Persian County in the first place was that such a remote area was really difficult to control, and only Li You could trust everyone.
If you want to solve the real problem, you can't do anything about it before.
It wasn't until the advent of the train that everyone saw hope.
However, although the train is good, the cost of railway construction is extremely high, and the railway thousands of miles away, coupled with complex road conditions, requires at least 50,000 yuan or more.
Such astronomical figures are really prohibitive.
Especially outside of Daqin itself, newly incorporated areas.
Although the nobility of Seleucus and other regions may be very rich, how to get this group of people to take out the money to build the railroad is not a simple matter.
couldn't help but worry Wang Jian and the others.
Wang Jian raised his head and glanced at Yingzheng, but saw that the face of the First Emperor was also quite dignified.
Just when everyone was looking at each other and thinking hard about a good plan, Zhang Han suddenly hurriedly walked in with a flying pigeon biography.
"Your Majesty, Persian County Emergency~!"
The hearts of the people sank.
It can't be that there's a fundraising problem in Boshire County, right?
A cadre subconsciously looked at the side of Yingzheng, in the direction where Fusu was located in the past, but only remembered in the absence that His Royal Highness Fusu went to Luoyang City to arrange the closure of the Xianluo Railway.
The people couldn't help but sigh in unison.
In the past, when His Royal Highness Fusu was here, everyone didn't have any special feelings. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
When His Royal Highness Fusu went out like this, he felt that above the court, it seemed that there was no backbone.
It turns out that unconsciously, is it already dependent on His Royal Highness Fusu?
Daqin is really inseparable from His Royal Highness Fusu!
Even Ying Zheng is slightly unaccustomed.
Because before, Ying Zheng had completely entrusted the affairs of the Western Regions to Fusu, and Fusu was able to solve it perfectly every time. []
However, now that Fusu is far away in Luoyang City, Yingzheng can only go into battle in person.
Taking a deep breath, Ying Zheng took the letter from Zhang Han's hand.
I made up my mind in my heart that I must speed up the completion of the transition of Great Qin's power.
Great Qin's development is so fast that the fast First Emperor can't understand it.
And the one who can perfectly govern Daqin is none other than Fusu.
The courtiers couldn't help but focus their eyes on it, and they were all slightly apprehensive in their hearts.
You must know that 60,000 yuan, although the Daqin Royal Bank is not unable to make up, it will also make the deposit rate of the Daqin Royal Bank reach a critical point.
What's more, even the lowest interest rate, the annual interest, is an astronomical amount, which is enough to make the treasury, which is already a little unable to make ends meet, even worse.
Fortunately, Ying Zheng's face made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
Looking at His Majesty's face, it shouldn't be bad news.
Could it be that the support for Daqin on the Persian County side is much higher than everyone imagined?
It's just that Your Majesty's weird (Zhao's) look, where did it come from?
"Your Majesty, you can tell your ministers what the situation is, right?"
"The ministers are dying!"
Nesteng, who was in charge of managing the treasury, stood up in anticipation of the rest of the people, and spoke cautiously.
"Rest assured, it's good news, and great news. "
"It's just good news, and it's a bit unexpected. "
Ying Zheng waved his hand and said: "Zhang Han, you immediately arrange for the flying pigeon to pass the book, so that Fusu can rush back to Xianyang as soon as possible. "
The ministers suddenly became even more confused.
But Ying Zheng didn't say it, he could only be in a hurry.
Everyone couldn't help but look forward to the train opening as soon as possible.
If the Xianluo Railway is fully opened, they can set off directly by train, and it will not take half a day to arrive in Luoyang City.
And now, I can only wait patiently.
