"Can sir really do this?" This time.Tian Heng looked at the counselor and said.
The counselor didn't say anything, just nodded silently.
"In that case, let's do this." Tian Heng finally decided.And all the generals showed different expressions at this time, and some generals breathed a sigh of relief. Most of these generals were veteran officers who had experienced many battles.They know the cruelty of war, and they also know that once the war starts, more people will be lost, and many people will never come back. When they hear this result, they are naturally willing, and they are all relieved. After all, there can be Fewer people don't have to go to the battlefield to fight.
The other one is very disappointed, and this part is that a small number of officers in the Qi army formed young officers.They heard they couldn't attack.They were very disappointed by the way of peace talks.In this way, they cannot launch an offensive and obtain higher positions through military merit. These young officers are seriously extreme on the issue of war. They believe that only through war can they obtain higher positions. His social status rose rapidly and was recognized.The veteran officers have experienced more battlefields, and they know that it is not bad for soldiers to come back alive.There is no need for military exploits.
The young officers are different, they are aggressive, but the situation in Qi State does not allow them to have such actions, but after the reform of the Qi army.This situation has changed.These young officers have a strong desire for military exploits.They are eager to show, so, that's why they are a bit belligerent.
The peace talks are certainly not the best news for them.Only by fighting can they become more important.
This is the case with the Qi army on the periphery.The private soldiers of the Qi army nobles in the city are another situation.
"Damn it, it's still not our own. The cannons have all hit us." A small officer of the private soldiers of the nobles of the Qi army cursed loudly.
The soldiers on the side looked at the little officer and carried the bodies that were killed by the bombing here.And under the ruins, there are more corpses buried.The entire city of Linzi was in ruins.There are almost no complete buildings in the entire city of Linzi, but there are.It is a gorgeous house where the only nobles live.
"The army of the Qi State stayed outside the city. It has been too late to launch an attack. Could it be that Tian Heng wants those untouchables to kill us all?" At this time, a nobleman shouted loudly.Qi Jun's movements were quite slow, and the nobles had lost patience with such slowness, because the thugs had already broken into their mansion, not far from where they lived.You can even get here with just one attack.The strength of the nobles has been consumed a lot.The consumption of private soldiers is serious.Coupled with the continuous siege of the city.Private soldiers can't last long.Especially the ammo supply.The army besieged the city, and the supplies were consumed quickly, and the stored materials had reached the final material reserves.In such a worry, the nobles urgently need the main force of the Qi army to rescue them.
"The army is standing outside the city, why don't you clear the siege? Once the siege is cleared, we will definitely invite the king to deal with that Tian Heng." Another nobleman stood up and said loudly at this time.
As soon as the nobleman finished speaking, there was a huge response immediately.More nobles look at things from their own perspective.They thought the nobleman was right, and they responded immediately.I urgently hope that it can be implemented immediately, and Tian Heng will be punished.
But Hou Sheng, who was sitting in the middle, was extremely clear-headed at this time.
"Enough." Hou Sheng shouted loudly at this time.
All the nobles stopped at this time.
"Linzi hasn't cleared the siege yet. Those untouchables can put swords into our chests as long as they launch an attack. Let's wait until the siege is cleared." At this time, the nobleman shouted loudly.
After Hou Sheng said this, all the nobles were like a raging fire.Suddenly poured a basin of ice water.The raging fire instantly entered the freezing point.
"Hmph." Hou Sheng got up very annoyed and walked away.And all the nobles looked at me and me at a loss, they just wanted to make Tian Heng look bad, but now, they have to worry about their own safety.
This is the difference between nobles and nobles. Tian Heng is still a visionary among the nobles.And those nobles saw their own interests short-sightedly, while ignoring the interests of the surroundings.The difference in strategy lies in this, immediate interests.
Some nobles in Qi State have short-sightedness, because their greed has led to their short-sightedness. These greeds have caused serious consequences, and the national strength of Qi State is weakening day by day.Not just Qi, Wei, and South Korea without any innovation.It was all because of this reason that the national strength was weakened, and it was finally unified by Qin.Their reforms have been minimal.And conservative, reform efforts are very short.This has led to an important reason for the poor national power.
Judging from the current situation, the state of Qi is basically divided into two factions, one is the reformist faction represented by the Tian brothers, and the other is the conservative faction represented by Hou Sheng.
There is no head-on confrontation between the two factions for the time being. After all, the enemy is now in front of them. It is not good for both parties to tear their faces at this time.It is natural for a country to have different political opinions.Tian Heng's view is that Qi needs reform.And it is a big reform, since Qin Guoshangwen was in charge of Qin Guo's prime minister.The situation has undergone serious changes, and this change has surpassed everyone's imagination.Some unbelievable things keep appearing.Some of the original methods have also undergone fundamental changes.Not only that, the war seems to have stopped a lot, but it is extremely intense.Although the upgrade of weapons has kept the nature of the war unchanged, it needs to be reformed in form to make it happen.And this urgent need is the need for reform.If Qi State does not want to continue like this, then there is only reform.
However, reform requires capital, and without capital, it is difficult to succeed in reform.Everyone knows this.As the economy develops faster and faster, especially the emergence of banknotes, the term capital keeps appearing, and the power of capital is finally tapped at this time.Many scholars have gradually realized that the power of money is so infinite.He can let Qin State send troops to fight, or let Qin State stop sending troops and reach peace.Peace is just a brand new environment under the operation of capital.
"I have summarized all the reports. I believe that the current peaceful environment is an important thing that needs to be completed urgently." Shangwen said nervously, waving his arms at this time.Sitting in front of him is King Qin.Qin Wang is obviously very interested in Shangwen's leaping thinking, but it is difficult to understand his leaping thinking, because Shangwen's way of thinking always makes people figure out.
Shang Wen looked at King Qin nervously.King Qin just looked at Shang Wen blankly.Shangwen knew very well that this time, he would find it difficult to explain one thing clearly.
"I'm sorry. I. My thinking is a little messy." Shangwen said at this time.
"Hehe." At this time, King Qin actually laughed out loud.
"Prime Minister, do you know? When you speak, it's very interesting. You don't know what you want to say, but you say what you want to say. Say what comes to mind. And the things in the middle, you can't say." King Qin said at this time.
"Me." Shang Wen shrugged and said.That's it for me.
"I'm not good at talking, really, although I speak well on stage, but in some reports, I really don't do enough. This may be one of my shortcomings." Shang Wen said at this time.
"En. Indeed." Qin Wang nodded and said.
"However, you have to go on. Maybe the widows can still understand." King Qin encouraged.
"En. Alright." Shang Wen said after a pause.
"I summed up all the report data, and I think so. At present, Qin State is caught in an economic slowdown. Qin State's growth rate was quite fast before, but with the establishment of some infrastructure and some commercialization At the beginning of the operation, after all, some things are beginning to mature. But the remote areas are getting more and more backward. This has led to the unbalanced development among the various regions of Qin State. This imbalance is reflected in the saturation of economic development in some areas. After saturation , the demand will also decrease. The current market situation is the same. The market demand in Qin State has decreased a little. The growth rate has decreased significantly. I think this is due to the decrease in demand. We can produce a lot of things, but few people buy .” Shang Wen said.
"We know. War can stimulate the economy, especially government procurement. But governments generally don't have money. We don't either, so obviously this trick doesn't work anymore. If it continues, it will only make the economy more and more tired." .” Shang Wen said.
"So, I thought of a peaceful environment, and use the development opportunities of a peaceful environment to stimulate demand, especially the use of the foreign exchange mechanism. With foreign exchange, demand can be stimulated, and those demands can expand rapidly. After all, there is demand, and it can continue .” Shang Wen said at this time.
"En. I still don't understand what the prime minister means?" King Qin said frankly at this time.
"Hehe." Shangwen smiled slightly at this time.
"What I mean is that our demand is insufficient. What we have to do now is to stimulate demand, let Qin's economic growth drive the surrounding countries, and let the needs of those countries stimulate Qin. Only then can Qin Enter another class. This class needs Qin to do so. Peace. We need peace, and everyone needs peace." Shang Wen looked at King Qin at this time and said.
1251 The Beaten Noble
"Peace." King Qin said at this time.
"Yes. Peace." Shang Wen said.
"The current situation requires peace. Peace is already very important to us. From the perspective of capital." Shang Wen said.
"Our capital is expanding. The entire Qin Kingdom is now filled with a large amount of capital, but these capitals have not found good investment projects. I will explain the reason later." Shang Wen said.
"The current situation in Qin State is capital expansion. Capital expansion requires a good investment environment. From the current point of view, we have successfully opened up the markets of South Korea, Zhao State, and Yan State. If necessary, we can also open up. Qi State, Chu State. The capital markets of these countries can be opened. And the fact is the same, as long as our political laws allow, they can enter these capital markets to operate." Shang Wen said at this time.
"En." King Qin nodded.
"Now, we have opened up the markets of these countries, but our capital is not yet very safe. For example, in the country of Yan, there are still some unstable factors, and these factors have caused great challenges to the safety of capital , At present, South Korea is the first choice for capital, because South Korea has developed well. Mainly, the peace for several years has provided an excellent peaceful investment environment, and this stable peaceful environment is a guarantee for capital.” Shang Wen said.
"En. According to the prime minister's meaning. That is, peace can allow Qin's capital to expand? Can I understand it this way?" King Qin asked.
"En. It can be understood in this way." Shangwen nodded at this time and said.
"En." King Qin nodded.
"It's not just that peace can bring capital security. It can also bring the environment into a period of stable development. This period of development requires us to take Qin as the center and expand Qin's strength, especially in terms of influence. We must The only way to spread Qin's culture and economic practices is that the six countries in the Central Plains can unify oil production. The greater our influence, the greater the possibility of unification. In the future, perhaps one day, we will be able to do without It won't take too long for the war to unify the six countries." Shang Wen said at this time.
King Qin didn't make any response.But Shangwen didn't mean to stop at this time.
"Peace can lead to the development of all countries. On the one hand, the Qin State brings huge influence. On the other hand, it can bring a huge market. Now Qin State has a strong production capacity, but an average consumption capacity, while consumption and military supplies Consumption is equal and equal in many ways. Military consumption consumes a lot of money, and consumption, especially market consumption, will bring about a huge boost to the economy. In our country, the per capita living standard is very high, but these consumptions come from Our own country, not other countries, the market of a country can easily saturate our production, we need the market, and to expand the market, we need peace, only peace can make those countries develop, people have money Only in this way can Qin’s economic development quickly catch up. Because Qin can only meet the needs of various countries through large-scale production, and these needs will stimulate production.” Shang Wen looked at King Qin and said.
"At the same time, these productions will require capital, personnel, and equipment, and then pay salaries to form a new market. This is a cycle, one cycle is bigger than the other, and this cycle is the condition for our economic development and prosperity. The vision of the future .” Shang Wen explained.
"I understand something." King Qin began to understand something after listening to Shang Wen's speech.
"The prime minister said that Qin must bring peace to the six countries? Only in this way can the six countries be unified under the influence of Qin." King Qin said, looking at Shang Wen.
"Yes." Shang Wen nodded heavily.
"This kind of unity is more stable than military unity. National unity is not simply territorial unity, but more, economic unity. This kind of unity is to effectively glue and organize various resources of the country. Become An organic whole, the emergence of this whole, will make the cohesion of this country unprecedentedly huge. This country will be more stable, there will be no turmoil, and internal unity will defeat all surrounding countries. This is powerful The foundation is also the foundation of a strong, internal affairs are not repaired. The army is only strong for a while. And the internal affairs are strong, so the country is strong. The unity of Qin is the unity of internal affairs, and at the same time, it is the victory of Qin's internal affairs." Shang Wen was a little excited Said.
"Prime Minister, what you said is very good." King Qin was very shocked when he heard Shang Wen's words.Shangwen pointed out the key to unification.Unification is not a simple territorial unity, but a kind of inner unity.As Shangwen’s understanding of politics deepened, he began to reflect on Chinese history. Chinese history can be summed up as long-term unity and long-term unity. Every change of dynasty is inevitable.Is this fate?Shang Wen didn't believe it, but he also believed it.At its root, Shang Wen believes that Chinese history, to put it bluntly, is an internal thing that has not been noticed.Cohesion, this cohesion is temporary, temporary, not permanent.If you need talents, you will have talents, and if you have resources, you will have resources.But the result is such a tragic ending. The replacement of dynasties is a repetition of history again and again. In the end, in the repetition of history, the grasp of historical opportunities is lost.This is a very unfortunate and deplorable situation.Seeing such a situation, Shang Wen believes that the problem lies in the root cause. The root cause is that the unity of the Qin State at that time was not a real unity, but a false, superficial unity. Only the formal unity was completed, and the internal unity was only completed during the Han Dynasty, but it was only completed for a while.That strong cohesion did not continue.The result is very regrettable.
After some thinking, Shangwen believed that in order to complete the unification of Qin, we must work hard on the most fundamental issue. This issue is the economic issue, through the close connection of the economy.Let these units of the Qin State be closely linked together to achieve a reasonable allocation of resources, and this reasonable allocation is rational and closely linked.The close connection of the economy is the foundation of a strong cohesion, and the country will not be in danger of splitting.Because you have me.There is you in me, so that it is impossible to separate even if they want to be united.This is true unity.This is how cohesion is formed.Only if the economy is closely linked together, any division cannot be formed.
