Saint Qin Batu

Li Si, who had barely adapted to the sunlight, gradually opened his eyes and asked, "Now, where are you now..."

However, in order for Li Si to finish speaking, he swallowed the rest of the words abruptly.

A nearly straight road, more than ten feet wide, appeared in front of Li Si's eyes.And they are resting on the side of the road.

"Where is General Song?" Li Si asked almost eagerly.Even before the waiter in front of him could answer, Li Si hurriedly got off the carriage.

"General Song! General Song!"

At this moment, Li Si even shouted in spite of his image, while walking towards Song Fan who was not far away.

"Lord Zuo Xiang, what's the matter, but just tell the attendants, Song Fan will go to Zuo Xiang's frame, why come here in person?" Song Fan said, supporting Li Si who was slightly panting.

However, Li Si ignored Song Fan's good intentions. Instead, he grabbed Song Fan's arm and asked, "General Song! When did I, Great Qin, build such a road?"

It's no wonder Li Si was so shocked. The road in front of him must have cost a lot, whether it was manpower, material resources or time.

However, it is unimaginable that he, as the prime minister of the left, does not know about such a path.

"No surprise on the left, your majesty has already started to build this road ten years ago." Song Fan said with a light smile.

"Ten years ago? Wasn't that when His Majesty just unified the six kingdoms?"

The shock in Li Si's eyes remained undiminished.You know, the Yingzheng at that time issued a special order for self-cultivation. Apart from the necessary labor in the territory of the six countries, there was no large-scale conscripting of the people of the six countries.

Moreover, even if it is secretly recruiting manpower, it is absolutely impossible to be full of oneself for ten years!

Sensing the distrust in Li Si's eyes, Song Fan didn't care about it, and replied with a smile: "To be exact, His Majesty has already started preparing for this road since the Xinzheng Rebellion."

"The Xinzheng Rebellion?"

Li Si frowned, still unbelievable, relying on Qin's pace of attacking the Six Kingdoms at that time, how could he have the spare energy to prepare for such a road.

Without waiting for Li Si to ask again, Song Fan continued: "To be exact, since then, His Majesty has ordered the Gongshu family to focus on developing the mechanism beasts used for road casting."

"Gongshu family? Mechanism beast?" Li Si nodded slightly after hearing this.

Indeed, if the Gongshu family had fully helped to build the road in the past ten years, the manpower needed would be greatly reduced.

However, even so, it still requires a lot of manpower.What's more, this road is basically built along the mountain, and the manpower required to open the mountain to open the road will not be much less because of the Gongshu family.

"Where's the manpower?" Li Si asked after hesitating for a moment.Now that Ying Zheng had put them on this path, Li Si wasn't worried that Ying Zheng would blame him for it.

"It was done by a lieutenant general." Song Fan replied bluntly.

"A lieutenant general?"

Li Si's eyes widened, and he looked at Song Fan in disbelief.It was even more unimaginable that the Great Qin Ruishi who had been fighting the enemy would be sent by Yingzheng to do something that belonged to the untouchables.

"So, isn't it true that in the army..."

Li Si said half of what he said, but the meaning was already very clear.Obviously worried that Ying Zheng would affect the morale of the lieutenant soldiers.

"Left Prime Minister, there is no need to worry. Your Majesty has already given an oracle. As long as a soldier who builds the road, he can kill one enemy in one day of service."

Song Fan's words once again shocked Li Si speechlessly.

Ten years of stability and self-cultivation means that in these ten years, there are no new military exploits.And during these ten years, Li Si wondered more than once, how did Ying Zheng maintain the army without any military exploits, so that there was no complaint from the army.

Unexpectedly, it turned out that the way of building roads to kill the enemy was used to stabilize the morale of the army.

It has to be said that Li Si had never heard of such a way of killing two birds with one stone.

3 Chapter Thirty Arriving in Qi County

Looking at the wide and smooth straight road, Li Si knew that since Ying Zheng had spent so much effort on this road, there must be a secret that he couldn't tell.

"General Song, since His Majesty used the army to build this straight road, he probably won't show it to others easily." Li Si looked at Song Fan with a different meaning in his eyes.

Song Fan chuckled and replied, "Of course! Otherwise, His Majesty wouldn't be hanging between these rocks."

Li Si narrowed his eyes slightly, waiting for Song Fan's next words.

"Your Majesty has relocated all the mountain people near this straight road. Counties and counties along the way have even arranged a large number of rangers. Anyone who is not in the imperial army will be killed without mercy!"

Li Si was silent for a moment, and then looked gloomyly at Chun Yuyue who was not far away.

However, Song Fan seemed to turn a blind eye to Li Si's gaze, facing Chun Yuyue without any killing intent.

"Then where will this straight road lead to?" After a long time, Li Si looked away and continued to ask.

"Qijun!"

Li Si was startled, looked at Song Fan, and wanted to ask out the guess in his heart.But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them again.

A straight road running through Qi County and Guannei is enough to divide the territory of the entire empire into two, which coincides with the road of Lianheng.

If there is chaos within the empire, this straight road will directly connect the two most prosperous and prosperous places in the empire.It can also directly allow the imperial army to control the entire Central Plains counties.

Going south and north, this straight road alone can make the elite of the empire far away in Guanzhong radiate the entire empire.

However, although there are still remnants of the Six Kingdoms in the empire today.However, the overall situation is still thriving. Why did Ying Zheng build this road?Preventing problems before they happen?

Li Si didn't dare to ask, even if there was no one around, Li Si would never dare to tell the secret that Ying Zheng could keep even a leftist like him.

"It's good that Prime Minister Zuo understands."

Song Fan put away the smile on his face, and his expression became a little serious.

……

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

On the wide street of Linzi, more than a hundred Golden Fire Cavalrymen shook the bluestone slabs on the whole street, making a buzzing sound.

From far away, even without being reminded by others, the thunderous sound of horseshoes caused the people on the street to hide on both sides of the street.

Meng Tian, ​​who was dressed in black armor, took the lead, with a solemn expression, as if something great had happened.

And behind him, more than a hundred golden fire cavalry exude a cold aura.

The street that was originally full of people's voices also became shy to speak because of this team of golden fire cavalry.

Ten years ago, the elite of the empire, who had just come from the bloody battle in Chu State, entered Linzi City with murderous intent just like today.

Apparently, the Golden Blazers reminded them of that day ten years ago again.

"General, Prime Minister Zuo and his party have reached thirty miles outside the city!"
