Meng Tian and Zhao Gao's subordinates, including Zhang Han's Black Ice Platform, were all investigating the mysterious force that had suddenly wiped out the Xiongnu army.
However, it was only a few thousand cavalrymen, so Ying Zheng was not in a hurry.
Although there was no definite information about the mysterious force, at this moment, a military report from Meng Tian appeared in Ying Zheng's hands.
It was written that although the Xiongnu had suffered huge losses and had also fallen into a period of power struggle.
However, now that the situation in the Xiongnu Royal Court was clear, the new Xiongnu Great Khan believed that Mao Dun's defeat was because of Great Qin, so he started to gather his army and planned to take revenge on Great Qin.
Meng Tian had sent a letter to gather most of the scouts who were scattered in the grassland to investigate the mysterious forces. The passes on the nine sides had started to tighten, asking Ying Zheng what arrangements he had.
Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Chen, but he subconsciously ignored Huhai.
He said in a deep voice.
"The Xiongnu suffered a crushing defeat last time, and now they are invading our borders again. Zhao Chen, what do you think?”
A strange feeling flashed through his heart. Zhao Chen had already known about the news from the north. After thinking for a while, Zhao Chen didn't hide his thoughts about the Xiongnu and the other foreign races.
"Father! Those who are not of our race will have different hearts! Moreover, the Xiongnu have invaded China for hundreds of years and killed our children. As for the foreign races who are no different from beasts, your son's thoughts are…"
Facing the gazes of several people, Zhao Chen stared at Ying Zheng. His face was solemn, but there was also a hint of expectation.
Zhao Chen said without a doubt.
"Their country will be destroyed, their species will be eradicated, and their descendants will be destroyed!”
Huhai couldn't hear anything, so he didn't think much of it. Ying Zheng, on the other hand, looked deeply at Zhao Chen, slightly moved.
Zhao Gao hurriedly glanced at Zhao Chen's face, which looked like Ying Zheng's when he was young, and was shocked.
Now, not only did they look alike!
Even their personalities were very similar!
No!
Judging from the way Zhao Chen was acting now, he was even more overbearing than Ying Zheng!!
He had originally thought that Fu Su was the one who was threatening him, but he had never thought that this unknown Ninth Young Master of Great Qin would be so unexpected!
Zhao Gao secretly thought that he had made a mistake. At the same time, he was furious at those people who were monitoring Yong City!
All these years, he had been reporting that Zhao Chen was well-behaved in Yong City and did not do anything.
In the end, even he felt that Zhao Chen was like a commoner!
Glancing at Zhao Gao, who was standing respectfully beside Ying Zheng with his head lowered, disdain flashed across Zhao Chen's eyes.
After that, seeing that Ying Zheng did not seem to have any intention of asking further, Zhao Chen thought for a moment and decided to say something.
"Father!"
Just as he was about to write and reply to Meng Tian's letter, he heard Zhao Chen's voice and raised his head.
Zhao Chen cupped his hands and said meaningfully.
"In the end, blindly defending can only be used for temporary needs. We still need to take the initiative to attack the Xiongnu in the north!”
Oh?
Hearing this, Ying Zheng's interest was piqued, and he gestured for Zhao Chen to continue.
"The Xiongnu are a nomadic people of the grasslands, and the harm they do to us farmers is too great! Every time your son thought of the children of Yan and Huang who had fallen under the hooves of the Xiongnu, he wished he could immediately kill all the Xiongnu people on his back!”
Ying Zheng shook his head. He had no choice but to be unable to defend himself. How could he not want to take the initiative to attack and make the north completely lose its threat to the land of Hua Xia?
However, Zhao Chen had also said that they were nomads, and anyone could mount a horse and become a soldier. They were also good at riding and shooting, so how could their mobility be so easy to destroy?
He had thought that Zhao Chen had a good idea…
Ying Zheng was a little disappointed. Perhaps it was because of his previous words, that he still had some illusions about Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen instantly understood Ying Zheng's thoughts.
Without taking into account his own faction, it would be difficult to completely eliminate the threat of the Xiongnu with just the 300,000 Meng family soldiers.
But defeating the Xiongnu was not a problem!
Therefore, Zhao Chen knew that Ying Zheng was not worried about how to defeat the Xiongnu, but about what would happen after that!
The north was not suitable for farming, and the people of Great Qin were not suitable for nomadic life. They also had to guard against the retaliation of the Xiongnu. Therefore, in Ying Zheng's opinion, it was not worth it to take the grassland into the territory of the empire!
Perhaps he didn't want to hurt Zhao Chen, so Ying Zheng asked casually.
"So what if we take the initiative to attack and defeat the Xiongnu? After all, as long as the Xiongnu leave, Great Qin will be helpless against them!”
Zhao Chen and his strategists had already come up with a countermeasure against this, so they replied without thinking. "We can slowly advance…"
This was Zhao Chen's faction, and he had not revealed it to the public, so he had to rely on Great Qin.
" For some grassland tribes, we can implement a division strategy, take in their soldiers, and give them trade…"
"Every tribe has strict rules on the size of their pastures, and they can only graze in their own pastures. Other tribes are not allowed to cross the border, and the tribe leaders have to be appointed by Great Qin. After a few years, Great Qin will no longer be threatened by the north!”
In fact, according to Zhao Chen's wishes, he would definitely kill them all. However, without the Xiongnu, there would naturally be nomads from other places occupying the northern grasslands.
As such, the root of this was not in the people, but in Great Qin's policy towards the northern side, which was to make the northern side part of the Great Qin Empire's territory so that the people of the northern side would not invade the southern side because they could not survive.
Ying Zheng's eyes did not show any emotion. Although he felt that what Zhao Chen said was somewhat useful, he could not figure out the key point in such a short time.
Although Zhao Chen's words were very beautiful, it was still unknown what would happen if this was really carried out. Ying Zheng simply nodded slightly, without making any indication.
After thinking for a moment, Ying Zheng still asked.
"Why do you have to set the size of the ranch? Wasn't it a little too much for a Tribe Leader to be appointed by Great Qin?”In fact, modern people were not necessarily smarter than the ancients. The ancients were only limited by their thinking.
Zhao Chen sighed to himself and explained in detail.
"The nomads of the grasslands will become our biggest problem because they live in no fixed place and rely on the weather to decide where to graze.”
Seeing Ying Zheng nod his head, Zhao Chen knew that Ying Zheng was indeed interested in the north, and even knew about the way of life.
" As long as we give them a fixed location, we can stop the flow of people and make it easier for Great Qin to control the Grasslands. As for the Tribe Leaders…"
Zhao Chen said after some thought.
" We can appoint some chiefs who will manage the tribes below them and give them the right to set up pastures and settle disputes…"
Although Zhao Chen did not continue, Ying Zheng's eyes began to shine!
Dividing the grassland into dozens of nearly a hundred leagues, with each league having about ten thousand people, after fixing the grazing area, it would definitely intensify the conflict between the tribes!
If the Alliance Leader didn't handle things well, Great Qin would be needed to resolve the conflict!
This naturally increased Great Qin's status in the hearts of the Grassland people!
At the thought of this, Ying Zheng's heart throbbed slightly. Perhaps, he could really get rid of the hidden danger in the north…
