Time Travel: The First Female Imperial Teacher of the Qin Dynasty
Chapter 53: The girl is very talented, I bow to you, Lao Zhao
"Voluntarily surrender? How is that possible, Mr. Lin?"
Meng Yi was the first to jump out to oppose. After all, the Yuezhi was a not-so-small country. How could they voluntarily surrender?
"Of course not. What I mean is that the Great Qin used its powerful military strength to force the Yuezhi to surrender. The Yuezhi has not developed well in recent years because of a lack of resources, and the Great Qin lacks population and labor. They can complement each other. As long as the Yuezhi surrender, the Great Qin can provide them with countless resources. But the Yuezhi needs to provide labor to the Great Qin, so that they can go mining and build the Great Wall. In this way, the strength of the Great Qin will become stronger and stronger."
"Of course this is just an excuse. The main purpose is to enter the Yue Clan and use their resources to strengthen ourselves!"
Lin Anlan told his plan.
Ying Zheng said helplessly: "But now our Great Qin's military strength is not enough to attack the Yuezhi."
"No need for troops. What we need to do now is to create momentum and make it look like we are about to attack the Yuezhi. Then, Your Majesty will send envoys to the Yuezhi to publicize our peace-loving policy. Then the Yuezhi will definitely come to you on their own initiative. In this way, we will be in a proactive position. After sending the envoys, we can do a lot more, such as getting the Yuezhi to come to you for an audience."
"By then, the Yue clan will definitely argue about the audience. This way, our Great Qin can delay for quite a while."
After hearing Lin Anlan's plan, Ying Zheng and Meng Yi secretly admired it.
Such a plan can be said to be very sophisticated. Every step has been thought of, and the right time, place and people are all in place, making the plan very perfect.
"You are a talented girl. Please accept my greetings from Old Zhao." Ying Zheng bowed deeply to Lin Anlan.
Lin Anlan quickly helped Ying Zheng up: "Brother, you are embarrassing me."
"Girl, the first thing I have to do is to petition His Majesty the First Emperor to build momentum and get the Yuezhi people to come to the emperor on their own initiative, so as to buy more time for our Great Qin."
Ying Zheng looked at Lin Anlan and said.
"That's right. The first thing to do is to create momentum and make it look like you are about to take action against the Yue Clan. This will cause panic within the Yue Clan, and then your majesty's goal will be achieved."
Lin Anlan nodded and said.
"Okay, I know what to do. I'll leave first. Please stay, girl." Ying Zheng took Meng Yi and left Lin Anlan's residence.
In the carriage, the two men recalled their previous discussion.
At this time, Meng Yi asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, the Shaofu has changed a lot. Should we show it to the court tomorrow morning?"
"Okay, bring those things here tomorrow and let the ministers open their eyes." Ying Zheng said lightly.
"Yes!" Meng Yi agreed excitedly.
Early the next morning, in the Qilin Hall, Ying Zheng sat majestically on the main seat, with Zhang Han standing below him. Beside him was a table with some novel items on it.
"My dear ministers, I have summoned you here today because I have something important to tell you." Ying Zheng said slowly.
"Your Majesty, please give your instructions." The ministers bowed hurriedly and said.
"The reform of the Shaofu has been completed. I specially asked the craftsmen to make some things for you to see."
The ministers asked curiously, "Oh? I wonder what it is?"
Ying Zheng waved his hand, and someone immediately brought up a modified Qin crossbow. This Qin crossbow was more refined than the previous one, and there were various complex patterns on it.
"This is a modified Qin crossbow. Its power has been increased by at least ten times, and its firing speed is also faster than before. If it is equipped to the army, it will be enough to increase the army's combat power by 30%."
"Hiss~" Upon hearing Ying Zheng's words, the ministers present all took a deep breath and were extremely shocked.
"In addition, there is another novel thing called paper." Ying Zheng said as he picked up a piece of white paper on the table. "This thing is cheap, thin and soft, and can be used by ordinary people to write."
"Wow~" This time, no one could believe their ears. They looked at Ying Zheng with shocked eyes and were speechless for a long time.
"This...how is this possible?" said a minister with a look of disbelief.
"Yes, this paper is so delicate, how can ordinary people use it?" another minister echoed.
Ying Zheng snorted coldly: "Humph, this is just something the girl made casually. If you don't believe it, you can ask Zhang Han."
Zhang Han stepped forward impatiently and said, "Your Majesty, this paper was indeed made by Mr. Lin himself. I saw it with my own eyes."
"Made by Mr. Lin himself?" Everyone's eyes widened immediately.
Ying Zheng nodded: "Yes, Mr. Lin once said that knowledge should belong to all the people in the world."
The ministers were filled with emotion: "This...Ms. Lin is truly an extraordinary woman!"
"Okay, I asked you to come here today because there is one more thing." Ying Zheng interrupted everyone and continued.
"Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."
"Yesterday, Ms. Lin told me that she had found the geographical locations of the four major directions." Ying Zheng said as he took out a huge map. "This map is called the World Map, and the locations of the four major directions are marked on it."
"This is the Great Qin State, but it's just a small corner."
When everyone heard this, they looked over and saw the location of the Great Qin on the map. It was just an insignificant little corner, not even a dot. At this moment, everyone was silent. They had never thought that the outside world was so vast.
"This...how is this possible?" said an old minister tremblingly.
Meng Yi stood up and said with a wry smile: "To be honest, when we first saw this thing, we were also quite skeptical."
"Are the other directions on this map marked in detail?" Old General Wang Jian suddenly came up, his eyes fixed on the map without blinking.
Meng Yi immediately became alert: "General Wang, are you also interested in this world map?"
Wang Jian did not answer, but continued to walk forward, gently stroking the map, with fanaticism in his eyes: "If there really is such a large territory, I, Wang Jian, am willing to die for the Qin Dynasty!"
"Your servants are also willing to die for the Qin Dynasty!"
The others also reacted, falling to their knees and shouting.
Looking at the excited expressions of his ministers, Ying Zheng nodded. He suddenly felt that he had not seen such passionate ministers for a long time.
So he shouted in a deep voice: "My dear ministers, there is no need to be so excited. Although this world is vast, it will eventually come to an end. As long as my Qin cavalry marches across the entire world, we can eventually achieve unification!"
"Yes!" All the ministers responded in unison.
Then he said calmly: "Mr. Lin once said something that well summarizes the current state of our Great Qin State."
