The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were the process of the disintegration of slavery and the establishment of a new system.
The reason why this change is promoted is the joint influence of various aspects, but the key is that in the struggle for hegemony among countries, the countries that follow the old system are relatively backward, which is not conducive to their dominance and hegemony, and they will inevitably be gradually eliminated. This
There is no doubt that it is a process of alternating rise and fall, and a process of stratification of strengths and weaknesses. It is a perfect example to illustrate the theory of rise and fall!
The few people who can stand together in this palace at this moment are naturally people with broad vision and experience. After hearing Chen Cuo's words, they all understood the connotation at once, let alone the politics of the King of Qin.
However, the supreme leader of the Qin State still looked calm, nodded slightly, and said calmly: "What you said is indeed the reason for the rise of the Qin State. That just proves that if I make Qin strong, Qin will continue to be strong, because of these reasons
It has not changed. In the past, Qin State rose from the Wei River and restored the land west of Hexi. In the future, Qin will be strong and move eastward and southward, annexing the lands of other countries!"
As he spoke, he lowered his eyes slightly and said: "Perhaps, like other people, you think that what I am forcing Qin to do is tyranny, and even more so, militarism? But under such tyranny, our Qin State is
It is getting stronger and stronger, and the population is getting larger and larger! With all the force and violence, the territory of our Qin State is getting bigger and bigger!"
Everyone heard this and felt that it was quite reasonable. Since the reason for Qin's strength is still there, and it has indeed reversed Qin's decline and shaped the strong Qin territory today, then as long as the current state of affairs is maintained, why will it weaken in the future?
Woolen cloth?
Therefore, as soon as King Qin said these words, not only the hearts of the people in the palace, but also the great power everywhere seemed to agree with him and continued to converge on him!
But at this moment, Chen Cuo smiled, obviously he still had something to say, but Li Si and others felt trembled in their hearts! Are you going to refute now? That would really offend the king! If he really provoked anger,
You and others might be implicated!
But with Qin Wangzheng staring at him, no one dared to take the lead and stop him. Now they just hope that Chen Cuo can see the situation and stop it as soon as possible.
However, Chen Cuo failed to let them get what they wanted, and still said: "Rise and fall are mutual transformations. The causes of prosperity in the past shaped the results of prosperity, but this result often becomes the source of decline."
"Oh?" Qin Wangzheng raised his eyebrows, "Tell me more."
Suddenly, the temperature of the entire hall dropped instantly!
"The many consequences derived from the cause of strength are so complicated that they can't be explained clearly at the moment. I'll just take the two things your king mentioned just now as examples." Chen Cuo ignored the change in the atmosphere, and his expression remained the same.
, "That is, the population is getting larger and larger, and the territory is getting bigger and bigger."
He stretched out a finger and said calmly: "The original system of twenty levels of farming and warfare was undoubtedly a beneficial system for the original population of Qin. It allowed many people who had just escaped from the constraints of others to
The target was found at once, and with the help of war, he became the master, gained land, money and social status. Therefore, everyone worked bravely, and the Qin State was able to support war with war. The more war he fought, the more brave he became! But at that time, the system was newly established, and it was said that it was level 20.
, in fact, there are vacancies everywhere, there are many positions, and the channels for advancement are clear. The population at that time was just constantly striving to occupy various positions. However, after more than a hundred years, the original vacant positions were occupied by people, and a huge group had already formed, occupying huge interests..."
Once here, he extended a second finger.
"So combined with the second point the king said, the original reason for its strength and prosperity will gradually deviate from the track, that is, the larger the territory, the less land available for attack."
As soon as these words came out, the already cold atmosphere became a little more solemn.
"The world may be vast, but it is all barren land. The desert in the north, the vast sea in the west, the vast ocean in the east, and the hundreds of thousands of mountains in the south are filled with poisonous insects and ferocious beasts. They are not suitable for human habitation. The real fertile land is actually the fertile soil of the summer.
The king just said that there are two kinds of land in the world, and the Qin State already occupies one of them. The remaining land is becoming increasingly scarce. The population of the Qin State has doubled compared with the original one. Even if one person has one piece of land, how much military exploits can he support?
What's more, will those who win the battle first lead those who win later, or block those who come later? Your Majesty, who has been in charge of the country for many years, can understand it after thinking about it."
The indifference on Qin Wangzheng's face gradually disappeared, and the expressions of Li Si and others also showed concern.
However, Chen Cuo didn't stop talking and continued to output: "Although the population of Qin's nation has increased, because Qin's national power is strong and it continues to acquire new territories, it is necessary to migrate Qin people to new lands. However, the birth population cannot keep up.
With the growth rate of the country, only a small number of nationalities can often migrate. When this group of people arrived on the land of the original Shandong countries, they undoubtedly became the masters of the people. They snatched land and wealth from the original residents of the countries, which has already caused conflicts.
This is actually a hidden danger! Such hidden dangers may not be obvious during expansion, but when Qin reaches its peak, there will be signs of an outbreak!"
It was completely quiet in the main hall, and Li Si and others remained silent.
In the end, this strange silence was broken by Qin Wangzheng.
He smiled and shook his head: "Although what you said makes sense, it is only an inference after all. Isn't it limited to your own theory? You said that the only land in the world is the Central Plains? But I think that the land of all barbarians can also be cultivated! You
It is said that the people of Qin who migrate to other countries will be in trouble, but I can move the nobles of those countries to their families! Without the nobles, the heads of Guizhou in the world are actually the same!"
As he spoke, his sharp eyes fell on Chen Cuo, and the mighty forces from all directions seemed to be guided and fell towards Chen Cuo's body!
But the next moment, the ray of heavenly power in Chen Cuo's body seemed to be stimulated, and it suddenly surged and expanded rapidly, filling every part of his body!
The two looked at each other without concealment, creating a tense atmosphere!
Li Si and others were frightened. Although they were confused as to how Chen Chenggao, a commoner, had the confidence to confront the Supreme Leader of Qin? Why would it make them worried? But there was no doubt that they did not want a conflict to break out between the two.
At this moment, Qin Wangzheng said again: "Even if your theory of rise and fall has some truth, I don't think that strong Qin will be predicted by your theory, so I want you to stay in Xianyang! Witness with your own eyes how strong Qin has always been.
Prosper! Until you admit that your judgment about the Qin Dynasty in your own theory is wrong!"
Boom!
Power is boiling in all directions.
Vaguely, Chen Cuo seemed to glimpse the depths of those layers of great power, a path that seemed to have existed since ancient times, originated from the beginning, but was covered up by some external force.
.
.
Boom!
Silent thunder trembled in the void.
In Kongtong Mountain, a spiritual light appeared, outlining the illusory figure of a Taoist priest.
He looked up at the sky and looked surprised.
"The reality of this world has been touched?"
Then he lowered his head and counted with his fingers, and his eyes became more focused.
"It's much earlier than the original time in history. It must be due to anomalies. From this point of view, I have to be faster, but..."
His eyes turned to the north.
"However, the re-spread legend has not yet reached the level of condensation. If we want to completely suppress the anomalies, it will undoubtedly take several years. We need to find a way to speed up the spread."
