He no longer had the same kind appearance as he did in the imperial court.
Ye Tian had many plans in his mind, but all of them had to be done after Qin Shihuang was saved.
"Brother Ye, I still have something in mind, please enlighten me.”
Meng Yi reached into his money pouch and took out two half-taels. He placed them on the table and his voice was filled with sincerity.
Ye Tian's eyes lit up, and he put away the money without leaving a trace." Old Meng, you're treating me like an outsider. Since you've stepped into this place, you and I are brothers from now on!”
Qin Shi Huang smiled faintly. This kid was as intelligent as a demon, and his intelligence surpassed others. He also occasionally liked to act tough and was a little greedy. He felt that this was more and more to his liking.
"Qin has 3 million soldiers, why don't they go north and attack the Xiongnu?”
Meng Yi stared into Ye Tian's eyes, his heart filled with confusion.
In the past, he had once sought advice from Old General Wang Jian, but the old general had only smiled without saying anything.
Four years ago, Meng Tian had led 300,000 soldiers to the Great Wall. He had asked again, but there was still no answer.
Great Qin had conquered the world by stepping on the Six Nations, and its soldiers were incredibly ferocious.
After destroying the Yan Country, they had the opportunity to pursue and destroy the Xiongnu in one fell swoop, but they chose to withdraw their troops.
Hu people dare not go south to herd horses, soldiers dare not bow and complain!
All of them showed the strength of the Qin Dynasty.
But why didn't they send troops?
"Old Wang, what do you think of this matter?”Ye Tian smiled but didn't reply.
Cough cough, acting tough also required skill.
"Firstly, the soldiers in the army do not have enough food and grass. "There is also a chance of failure. Our Qin Dynasty…can't afford it, so we built the Great Wall.”
"Secondly, there are internal and external problems. The remnants of the six dynasties have not been completely eliminated. If chaos happens, the consequences will be unimaginable and might even shake the foundation of our country.”
"Thirdly, as far as I know, after Epang Palace was built, the national treasury was already in the red. The spoils of war from destroying the six dynasties were not enough to support the long-term war.”
The corners of Ying Zheng's mouth twitched, revealing a smile as he said three things in a row.
This was also the reason why they did not attack the Xiongnu in one fell swoop, but chose to build the Great Wall instead.
Even if it was a waste of manpower and money, he had no choice.
Ye Tian looked at Ying Zheng in surprise." Old Wang, you're not simple. You've improved recently. Old Meng, you didn't see through it because you weren't looking at it from the perspective of a bystander.”
"Not only that, it was at the beginning of the establishment of the Qin Dynasty, and it was already unstable. Internal and external troubles combined. Old Wang, let me tell you, it's not a possibility of rebellion, but a hundred percent!”
"If they really send out their troops, the Qin Dynasty will have to fight on two fronts, facing the Xiongnu and South Yue at the same time. If the remaining evil forces interfere, then they will truly be attacked from both sides.”
All of this seemed simple, but it was not easy to change.
This was also why in recent years, Qin Shihuang's desire to send troops had gradually faded.
Because he knew that no matter how hard he tried, hard conditions were extremely difficult to change.
It was easy to send troops, but where could they get food and fodder?
Not to mention sending troops from Xianyang to the border thousands of miles away.
"Then when can we go out? Is there no other way?”Meng Yi was somewhat unwilling.
As an official of the Qin Dynasty, who wouldn't want to see the Qin Dynasty prosper?
"This question has no solution." Ying Zheng felt bitter. If there was a chance, how could he give it up?
To be able to destroy the six states and complete the unification, one could see how ambitious he was.
However, even if the farmers were forced to their deaths, they would not be able to grow food.
Therefore, the only way was to build the Great Wall and strengthen the border defense.
"Old Wang, you're wrong. His Majesty has unrivaled talent. If it wasn't for the Immortal Medicine messing with his mind, he wouldn't be in this situation.”Ye Tian said, putting a piece of meat into his mouth.
Qin Shihuang's great strategy was unparalleled since ancient times.
If not for the fact that he was a transmigrator and had a lot of skills, he would only be a commoner.
Since the system had given him this opportunity, how could he give it up so easily? He would definitely lead Great Qin's Cavalry to conquer the world.
"Brother Ye, it's easier said than done.”Ying Zheng smiled bitterly.
Ye Tian winked." Old Wang, do you know where I came from?"”
"Ah!"
Meng Yi was stunned.
"I came from the sky."
Ye Tian pointed to the sky.
“……”
F * ck!
You can't fool people like this.
"Alright, alright, Brother Ye, drink up. After a while, you can get more of this wine. I'll help you sell it and make a fortune.”
Ying Zheng pursed his lips and rolled his eyes, pouring Ye Tian a full cup of wine, his face full of distrust.
Meng Yi's heart jumped. This kid was really audacious. He dared to ask His Majesty to pour wine for him.
"Don't worry, it's only a matter of time before we conquer the Xiongnu.”
It wasn't time for the potatoes and sweet potatoes to ripen yet, so Ye Tian didn't say anything.
Hehe, I'll give them a surprise when the time comes.
He calculated the time. With Old Wang's help, it was almost certain that he would meet Qin Shihuang. When the time came, he would offer the immortality medicine and take out the sweet potatoes. He should be able to get an official position.
Also, it was time to put the smelting techniques he knew in his head to use.
Naturally, Ying Zheng did not know that the young man's brain was spinning rapidly.
