Chapter 134 The civilians join the military system, imitating the battle of Changping.
"Does the River and Drainage Department have any difficulties regarding the requisitioning of civilian power?"
Ying Zheng's words made Li Si burst into tears of gratitude. Even if Ying Zheng didn't ask, he would have said it. This was not a difficulty at all, but a very difficult one.
Recruit millions of people!
This is no joke, this is a huge problem.
During the Changping War, the Qin Dynasty recruited millions of people to serve in the war. However, the reason why the recruitment of people went smoothly was ultimately due to the peerless prestige of King Zhaoxiang and the illustrious reputation of Wu'an Lord Bai Qi.
The great Qin warriors of that era had never lost a battle.
There is no problem with a divine combination like King Zhaoxiang and Lord Wuan. Now neither Zheng Guo nor Li Si nor even Ying Zheng have such prestige.
With thoughts flashing in his mind, Li Si was excited and said excitedly: "If we use the power of the people in Guanzhong, it is very possible to recruit millions——!"
"I'm afraid it will be difficult!"
After a brief silence in the hall, Zheng Guo shook his head at Ying Zheng and Li Si: "Since Dayu's flood control, thousands of years of old rules have been spread in the Central Plains. Such canal water diversion and other projects are generally carried out by the common people.
Prepare rations."
"We are experiencing a severe drought right now. People in both the government and the public are in panic. The people across the country are hungry. Looking at the counties and counties throughout the Qin Dynasty, I am afraid that there is no surplus food!"
"Food is the most important thing for the people. Without food, there are no one. Going to the canal when you are hungry is useless. If you don't do it, you will cause trouble. This will be a huge disaster for the current Daqin."
...........
Zheng Guo's words made the hall quiet again, and there was silence for a long time.
At this moment, the Qin Dynasty has experienced the Lao Ai Rebellion, Wen Xin Hou's Rebellion, and now there is a severe drought and the Expulsion of Guests Rebellion. If the chaos continues, I am afraid it will be out of control.
Therefore, the biggest problem now is not that Da Qin has no people, but that Da Qin has no food. For a while, everyone from Ying Zheng to Ying Gao was helpless.
After being silent for a while, Ying Zheng, who was sitting in the seat, glanced at Li Si and said, "How much grain is stored in the official warehouses in Da Qin?"
At this moment, Ying Zheng was really speechless and looked towards Guancang.
He knew in his heart that there must be food in the official warehouses of the Great Qin Dynasty. After all, before this severe drought, the Great Qin Dynasty had basically had good harvests year after year, and God had blessed it.
Hearing this, Li Si was silent for a moment, calculated in his mind for a moment, and then frowned: "Your Majesty, the six warehouses are full. However, Qin's law does not help the poor, and it is illegal for officials to provide food for workers."
In the Qin Dynasty, the Qin Law hung high at the gate of the country and was engraved on the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
As a result, in the Qin Dynasty, the one who was superior was Qin Fa, not the King of Qin. Even the extremely powerful King Zhaoxiang had to say that the king does not violate the law and the law is not noble.
As soon as Li Si said this, Ying Zheng's words were on his lips, but he could not say them anymore. As the king of Qin, he must not destroy Qin's laws. After all, Qin's laws are the foundation of Qin's country.
Thoughts flashed in his mind, Ying Zheng saw Ying Gao on one side and said, "Gao, what are your thoughts on this matter, or do you have any ideas to solve this difficulty?"
Following Ying Zheng's words, everyone turned their attention to Ying Gao. Everyone in the Qin Dynasty was well aware of the talents of the Third Young Master. After all, the Sanchuan County Sheriff who was less than nine years old had already become an example.
Under the gaze of everyone, Ying Gao smiled slightly and said: "Father, I have a plan, but it's not what I thought. I just learned from the sages -!"
"explain!"
Ying Gao took a sip of herbal tea and said resolutely: "My son once saw a volume of records on the bookshelf of the teacher's house. During the Changping War, King Zhaoxiang mobilized millions of people to go to Shangdang to help the battle."
"At that time, all civilian forces were organized into a military system and ate military rations. All it took was the father's order to use the military system to control the water and use the official warehouse to provide food. The biggest problem of the Jing diversion project would be easily solved——!"
"Hahaha........"
Hearing this, Ying Zheng laughed loudly, slapped the case again and again, and said: "Young Master Gao said this, but he needs to come up with a proper strategy. Only in this way can he leave those elders speechless at the Xiaochao meeting.
explain--!"
At this moment, Li Si and the others, who had frowned deeply, finally laughed. As long as they had a way, they would naturally be able to come up with countermeasures to deal with the elders of the clan.
"Gao, how about Gu transfer you back to Xianyang and work by Gu's side?"
Ying Zheng's eyes flickered. He was very concerned about Ying Gao's eagerness for talent. He often struggled to figure out things, but Ying Gao would have them solved. This gave him hope.
"Father, please let me go!"
Shaking his head, Ying Gao said: "Things in Sanchuan County have just begun. Those are the foundation of our great Qin, or in other words, the foundation of eternity."
"Only if I take care of it myself can I keep moving forward. At this moment, I have no energy to get involved in other things. If it weren't for the serious drought in the Jing River diversion project, I wouldn't interfere!"
At this moment, Ying Gao righteously refused.
He naturally knows that compared to Xianyang, Sanchuan County is the hope of everything, not only the hope of Da Qin, but also the hope of Ying Gao.
Moreover, in Xianyang, he is too inconspicuous, but in Sanchuan County, as long as Ying Zheng does not come, he Ying Gao will be the legitimate emperor of Etu.
No matter who it is, they must have the idea of calling it a chicken head instead of a phoenix tail.
Only by staying in Sanchuan County can Ying Gao's early ambitions be realized.
"That's right, you still need to deal with those things in Sanchuan County!"
At this moment, Ying Zheng also nodded slightly. He knew in his heart how big Ying Gao's business was in Sanchuan County, and how big Ying Gao's ambition was.
Even at this moment, Ying Zheng regretted that he should not have sent Ying Gao to Sanchuan County in the first place, but to Shu County or Longxi County so that he could grow up safely in the rear of Da Qin.
But as Sanchuan County is the gateway to the east of Da Qin, it is naturally full of dangers and constant troubles.
"After waiting for this period of time, I will let you go to Sanchuan County. I hope Sanchuan County will live up to your expectations——!"
Some things in Sanchuan County can be seen by everyone in the Qin Dynasty. No matter what the future of Sanchuan University is, this will be Ying Gao's huge political capital.
In the years to come, the Sanchuan Clan will become the mainstay of Great Qin, and the Sanchuan Clan will also be equated with the Sangongzi Clan. Not even Ying Zheng can change this.
After all, Ying Gao was the initiator of everything and gave them the opportunity to dominate the Qin Dynasty.
This is the reason why almost everyone in the government and the public of Great Qin is trying to save Ying Gao's face. As long as Ying Gao himself does not commit suicide, the crown prince of Great Qin can only be Ying Gao.
The other young masters simply have no ability to compete with Ying Gao.
