" Actually, the deeper truth is very simple…"
"Power doesn't just come from the top down, it also comes from the bottom up most of the time," Yin Shang said slowly. Do you think that Duke Zhuang's objection to Lu Buwei's new law on the righteous army was just Duke Zhuang's objection?”
"Duke Zhuang is the general guarding the border. He can represent almost all the generals on the front line. For example, if the new law forbade the use of heads to record merit, then the fairness of the system of military merits and titles would be broken, and the army would naturally be dissatisfied!”
" Another example is that the new law of the righteous soldiers allows preferential treatment for captives. But under special circumstances, the rations of the frontline are limited. Is it preferential treatment for captives or letting our brothers starve?”
" Also, after the prisoners were released, they picked up their weapons again, and the enemy infiltrated the people to spy on the Qin army's movements…"
"In short, the new law of the righteous army will definitely make the frontline generals complain. Duke Huan's ass decides his head. At this time, he can only stand up. Otherwise, he will have no face to continue being the general of the border!”
……
The position of Duke Huan was destined to be the tip of Lu Buwei's spear!
There was resentment at the front line.
Duke Zhuang had to speak up for his brothers at the front line.
Lu Buwei naturally had to kill the chicken as an example to the monkeys. Otherwise, if the soldiers at the front line made a fuss in the future and even the national policy was put on hold, wouldn't that be rebellious?
However!
For a mature superior, having only prestige was far from enough.
He still had to be kind…
"After Lu Buwei demoted the Duke of Langgong, he would then choose to use Meng Ao to show mercy!”
Yin Shang saw through everything. Would Meng Ao reject Lu Buwei's kindness through him? In fact, it still depended on the level of the chips!”
"Let's see what Lu Buwei has up his sleeve. Naturally, it was the 40,000 hectares of land in Guanzhong that was watered by the Zheng Canal!”
" Lu Buwei has to set aside a portion of the 40,000 hectares of land to attract the refugees of the six states, and he also has to keep some land for future military rewards, including the private property of the nobles that was taken during the construction of the Zheng Canal.”
"Therefore! Little scholar, once the Zheng National Canal is built, too many people will be eyeing the benefits of the land. Meng Ao naturally wants to fight for the largest share of land for the military faction!”
……
The world is bustling because of profit.
All the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.
There was a saying.
Without a handful of rice in hand, she couldn't even coax a chicken.
What Meng Ao wanted was for the Meng family to continue for a long time, as well as for the military to continue to grow.
He was a typical old-fashioned person.
It has nothing to do with loyalty or evil.
Each had their own standards.
"How could this be…"
" What?" Fu Su was stunned." If we want to allocate the future military merits and land, we must also leave the land that will continue to attract the refugees of the six countries. This is definitely not enough…"
"40,000 hectares in Guanzhong is actually not a small amount, but this is not a problem of land quantity.”
Yin Shang explained," According to what I know, when the refugees from the six states enter Qin, not only will they be given land and farming tools, but they will also be given a cow to farm. They won't have to pay any taxes for two years.”
"Then here comes the question. Why can those refugees from the six dynasties enjoy such good treatment when they enter Qin?”
"On the other hand, the people of the Great Qin Pass have to shed their blood on the battlefield before they can be rewarded for their contributions!”
"As such…Lu Buwei's policies are too contradictory. If he wants to use land to attract refugees from the six countries, it will definitely affect Great Qin's fundamental policies. Military merit and title system!"
……
The world is not worried about the lack of people, but about the uneven distribution of people!
This was a cliché that had been said too many times.
Lu Buwei had foresight when it came to policy making, but he lacked common sense!
Furthermore!
Lu Buwei had also neglected the fact that the meritorious officials of the Great Qin army were repelling the refugees from the six states.
Especially when it came to land allocation.
You bunch of beggars from the Central Plains, how dare you come to Guanzhong to share our cake?
They were all f * cking tired of living!
Indeed!
When Lu Buwei was in power.
Perhaps the military and military officials below wouldn't dare to make a big move, but once Lu Buwei lost his power, the land that the refugees of the six states had obtained near the Zheng Canal would be quickly annexed by the other parties!
Then the refugees of the six states would be fat sheep!
To receive a reward without merit!
Who can speak up for you?
The grass on Lu Buwei's grave was now several feet tall!
Master, I understand."
Fu Su lowered his head in disappointment and said,"" Extending it to two or three generations and slowly encroaching on the countries of the Central Plains won't work at all…"
At this time, Fu Su also realized that some policies were very good when they were first formulated.
However, as long as it was carried out, it would definitely change.
The reason was that Lu Buwei could not take into account the reality, which was a common problem of idealists.
"That's right, it's completely impossible.”
Yin Shang organized his words and said,""The policy of attracting refugees has impacted the military merit and nobility system due to the direct distribution of land. Sooner or later, it will only exist in name.”
"The new rules of the righteous soldiers completely break the fairness of the military merit and title system. Since they don't record merit by beheading, it means that there are many manipulations in the process of granting merit.”
"In the long run, Great Qin's military merit and nobility system will definitely collapse. At that time, the millions of Qin soldiers would collapse like the last generation of Wei soldiers!”
"Also…Lu Buwei cut off the young Qin King's childhood friendship, brothers, and mother's kin! It was destined that Ying Zheng would abandon the kingly way and walk towards the ultimate tyranny!”
……
One after another.
One by one.
Lu Buwei's merits and faults.
In the end, they had turned into dust and soil today.
At the same time, Yin Shang's judgment had also made the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, completely let go of his second father.
Tyrannical was better than the kingly way!
This result was extremely important to One Emperor from the Ancient Era…
