"After the third reform, why did the Qin Country, a small western country that was not taken seriously by the six Eastern countries, suddenly become the most powerful country among the seven countries?”
"There are only a few reasons."
Jiang Chen was about to get to the main point. He paused for a moment and took the wine to moisten his mouth.
Then, he continued,
"Firstly, it suppressed the power of the nobles and liberated a large number of real social productive forces, namely the people and slaves at the bottom of Qin.
Then, he would issue a decree to allow private ownership of land.
It greatly aroused the enthusiasm of the people for production.
It brought huge taxes to the Qin country and strengthened the Qin country's treasury.”
"In other words, the State of Qin is rich.”
"Now that we have money, we can only say that the State of Qin's ability to resist external risks has increased.”
"If your fist isn't strong enough, no matter how much money you have, you'll only attract greedy wolves.”
"That's why while you have money, you also have to have sharp swords!”
"This is the second. Abolish the old system of hereditary officials and hereditary salaries, and issue a system of twenty ranks of nobility for military merits.
In this way, it would open up a path for the adult men at the bottom of the State of Qin to advance, and they would have the opportunity to change their fate.
Naturally, no one would let go of such an opportunity.
And as the adult men at the bottom of the Qin country joined the army, coupled with the Qin country's national treasury becoming abundant.
Money could make the devil turn the millstone, and money could naturally make soldiers fearless of life and death and fight for the country.
At the same time, they reformed the household registration system, making it more convenient for the Qin country to recruit people to join the army.
A series of measures made the Qin country's military strength stronger.”
"With money and sharp swords, Great Qin will be able to sweep through the six countries and unify the world.”
"Of course, in the later stages, the Great Qin accepted the talents of the six countries and adopted their useful suggestions, which also laid the foundation for the Great Qin to unify the world.”
"Do you have any different opinions on my two views?”Jiang Chen looked at Fu Su and Meng Yi.
Of course, the two of them had no objections.
Fu Su was the eldest son of Great Qin.
Meng Yi, their Meng tribe was the one who had the benefit of Duke Shang's reform!
His grandfather, Meng Ao, was originally from Qi State.
Later, he defected to the Qin country and killed his enemies on the battlefield.
He had been an official of King Zhaoxiang of Qin, King Xiaowen of Qin, King Zhuangxiang of Qin, and Qin Shihuang of Qin. He was a true elder of the four dynasties.
During this period, Meng Ao led his army to battle several times and made many military achievements.
He had seized more than ten cities in Korea, more than thirty cities in Zhao, and more than fifty cities in Wei.
It allowed Qin to establish Sanchuan Prefecture and Dongjun, and allowed Qin's territory to connect with Qi, forming a three-sided encirclement of Korea and Wei.
It would lay a firm foundation for Qin Shihuang to unify the six countries in the future.
Therefore, Meng Ao was finally promoted to the position of High Official.
As a result, the three generations of the Meng family were given important positions by Great Qin.
His grandfather Meng Ao, father Meng Wu, brother Meng Tian, and Meng Yi were all Great Qin's generals and important officials.
All of this was due to the 20-rank nobility reward system in the reform of the Duke of Shang.
Therefore, Meng Yi didn't have any objection to Jiang Chen's opinion.
Because he was afraid that he would go underground in the future.
He would be chased and beaten up by his grandfather Meng Ao.
Meng Yi really did not want to go through the psychological trauma of his childhood again after he died…
Jiang Chen was a little surprised that they didn't have any objections.
It was not because of Fu Su, but mainly because of Meng Yi.
This guy actually didn't jump out and say,""Tsk, who are you looking down on?"
However, this was also a good thing.
After all, seeing a fool with his chin raised, looking like he was very awesome.
It was really annoying.
"Then let's continue."
"Even though the Duke of Shang's reform has laid down a solid foundation for Great Qin to sweep through the six countries and unify the world in the future.”
"However, that was then and that is now."
"The purpose of Duke Shang's reform was to let the Qin Country stand out among the seven countries and allow the Qin Country to annex the six countries.”
"Now, Great Qin has done all of this.”
"The First Emperor has fought for the past six generations, ruling the region and shaking the four seas.”
"The Six Nations have already become dust in history.”
"Once upon a time, the reform of the Duke of Shang."
"It turned Great Qin into a war machine.”
"But now, the war is over."
"Recently, the First Emperor has launched another war against the Yue in the south.”
"However, due to geographical reasons, the war with the Yue is destined to be a protracted war. We won't be able to obtain results in a short period of time.”
"In the north, there is still the ferocious enemy of the Xiongnu.”
"However, Great Qin has just pacified the world, and there are nobles from the six countries who are secretly plotting to overthrow Great Qin.”
"As the saying goes, to resist foreign aggression, one must first stabilize the interior.”
"As such, to deal with the Xiongnu, Great Qin can only temporarily build the Great Wall to defend against their invasion from the south.”
"Because of all these reasons, Great Qin's Rank 20 system cannot give Great Qin's lower-class citizens enough opportunities to rise.”
"The biggest threat to a country is not external, but internal!”
"Great Qin's lower-class residents 'promotion channels are blocked, and this is a huge threat to Great Qin!”
Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Fu Su fell into deep thought.
Meng Yi did not jump out and continue to act like a reckless person.
Because the Meng family had relied on the path of military merits to become a 20th-class noble to get to where they were today!
Even though Meng Yi was blessed by his grandfather Meng Ao and father Meng Wu, he was still a disciple of Meng Yi.
He could rely on his father's generation to obtain Great Qin's important position.
However, Meng Yi was a general, and he and his brother Meng Tian had both been on the battlefield and led troops.
Therefore, he deeply understood why the soldiers at the bottom were willing to put their heads on their belts and fight the enemy.
It was to obtain money and obtain a title.
He wanted his descendants to no longer have to continue being at the bottom and live an incomparably difficult life.
Great Qin could sweep through the six countries and unify the world.
Countless soldiers had lost their lives on the battlefield in order to stand out.
However, even if he knew that he might die.
The soldiers still went into battle without hesitation and fought with the enemy.
That was because as long as he went into battle to kill the enemy, he would have the opportunity to change his fate!
If what Jiang Chen had just said was true...
As Great Qin unified the world, the number of wars decreased.
The path of promotion for the lower-class citizens would gradually be blocked.
Meng Yi could imagine it.
where once the black armor came.
The Qiyue Wuyi that resounded through the world, the Qin Yao that was with you.
They would slowly stop being impassioned.
The Great Qin army that was once fearless of life and death.
He would no longer be unafraid of death.
In the end, Great Qin's army's fighting power would plummet!
It would also cause Great Qin's strength to be cut in half!
Thinking of this, Meng Yi instantly sucked in a breath of cold air.
Meng Yi almost couldn't help but ask Jiang Chen for a solution.
However, considering his character, he had to suppress his impatience.
Actually, he wasn't the only one who was anxious.
Ying Zheng, who was in the secret room next door.
The First Emperor of Great Qin, who used to be extremely dignified.
Right now, his heart was also like thousands of ants crawling on it.
He couldn't wait to hear Jiang Chen's answer to the problem of the Great Qin's military promotion channel being blocked.
But he could only be anxious.
In the end, Ying Zheng and Meng Yi's eyes fell on Fu Su.
Only he, an outsider, and Jiang Chen's student, could ask for a solution.
It was unknown when Fu Su would understand how serious it was for Great Qin to have the path to promotion blocked, and he would ask his teacher for a solution.
Ying Zheng and Meng Yi were really anxious!
Unfilial son, why are you still thinking? Hurry up and ask!
Eldest Young Master, don't think about it anymore. Hurry up and ask!
......
At the same time.
Outside the imperial prison.
A group of people dressed in scholarly robes arrived at the entrance of the imperial prison.
The jailer guarding the gate of the imperial prison looked as if he was facing a great enemy.
The reason was simple.
These jailers were all from Old Qin.
Most of the people of Old Qin hated Confucianism.
"This is an important place in the Heavenly Prison.”
He looked at the jailer who seemed to be about to draw his sword.
The group of Confucians revealed looks of disdain and contempt.
Then, the leader of the group, an old man, stepped forward.
"This old man is Dr. Chunyu Yue. This is the warrant of the internal historian.”
The jailers looked at the arrogant Chunyu Yue before them, then at the so-called internal history warrant in his hand.
None of them spoke or made way.
Seeing this, Chun Yuyue was instantly displeased.
The two sides began to confront each other.
In a corner that no one noticed.
Someone witnessed the entire scene.
Then, he silently left in the direction of the secret chamber in the imperial prison.
