Chapter 48: On the World Situation (Continued)
"Sir, do you know the origin of the Yan Kingdom's clan?"
"It's natural to know that the state of Yan is a descendant of the Yellow Emperor, and after Ji Fa, the king of Wu, it is a Chinese orthodox. I don't know why His Royal Highness is asking?"
Le Yi was a little puzzled, and didn't understand what was the purpose of this Qin's son asking these questions?
"Haha, Mr. is really amazing. Yes, the country of Yan is a descendant of the Yellow Emperor, and the world is authentic. If you go back, it even has a history that has been passed down for thousands of years, which is amazing."
Ying Ji said with a smile, Le Yi originally thought that this young master Ying Ji had given up recruiting him, but he did not expect Ying Ji to speak again.
"As the gentleman said, the State of Yan is the descendant of Ji's surname, and the descendant of the Yellow Emperor is the orthodox in the hearts of the people of the world, but it is precisely because of this that the State of Yan is also the most conservative country in the world."
"Since the three families divided Jin and the world entered a world of great competition, all countries have implemented reforms in their own countries in order to survive and strengthen the country, but only the country of Yan is still maintaining the ancient system!"
"Among the kingdoms in the sky, except for the State of Yan, the patriarchal system has been abandoned, and the officials of the court are held by talented and learned people, breaking the situation that only relatives of the same ancestor and bloodline could serve as state officials, but the State of Yan is still the same."
"Although King Yan has the heart of a strong country, he has no choice but to have serious aristocratic politics. The nobles who were once divided to strengthen their rule have now become moths that prevent the country from becoming strong."
"Even if King Yan wants to change the law, Ying Ji dares to be blocked by the nobles in the country of Yan."
"Even if King Yan insists on going his own way, he still has to consider the thoughts of these nobles in the end. Otherwise, once these nobles defect, the Yan kingdom will fall apart in an instant."
"Also, even if you step back 10,000 steps, King Yan and the nobles in the country all support the reform, but the various conditions of the Yan Kingdom have already restricted the Yan Kingdom's development and growth."
"Not to mention that the country of Yan's own resources and land are poor, and there is a serious lack of iron ore, and bronze mines can only guarantee self-sufficiency. In addition, there are only two or three million people in the country of Yan, and the army of 300,000 supporting the current state of Yan can be counted. It's the limit!"
"Of course, if King Yan insisted on going his own way, he could still pull up an army of 500,000 people, but at that time, the state of Yan could already be regarded as a military force."
"The people are simply unable to support such a huge army, and they are all shunned. The rule of Yan State will not last long. I am afraid that when the time comes, there will be no need for other countries to invade, and the State of Yan will become a mess."
"Even if you make the country of Yan extremely rich, so what if you have wealth that makes the world envious, but you don't have the world's first-class military power, and will only become the target of public criticism, and the country of Yan will only become a fat pig in the eyes of the world's warring countries. , slaughtered in one fell swoop after fattening!"
Ying Ji said lightly, but it made Le Yi break out in cold sweat.
Once Le Yi only imagined how to make Yan State strong and show his talents, but he ignored all kinds of factors such as politics, land, people, and the trend of the Warring States in the world.
Now that I think about it carefully, I realize that I still haven't considered it completely. As this Young Master Ying Ji said, it is impossible for the country of Yan to grow and develop. Even if it becomes stronger, it is only superficially powerful.
Without a vast population and fertile land, it meant that the State of Yan could not have a strong army.
Even if the reform is successful, it will not be able to protect the results. At that time, the country of Yan will really become a fat pig in the eyes of the Warring States in the world, just as this Young Master Ying Ji said.
In addition, the domestic aristocratic politics of the Yan Kingdom is serious, not only the Yan Kingdom of the King Yan, the Yan Kingdom's nobles can even control the national policy when they unite, and the Yan Kingdom's aristocrats are also dominated by the Ji surname aristocracy.
A scholar like himself without rootless duckweed and no support behind him enters the State of Yan to help the State of Yan become stronger, I am afraid that he will be expelled again.
At that time, I am afraid that not only will I not be able to follow the example of Shang Jun, I am afraid that I will bring shame on myself!
It seems that he still took it for granted before, taking things like reforming and strengthening the country as too simple. Reforming the country and strengthening the country is not something that can be accomplished by one's own talent.
Don't you think that Shang Jun also met Qin Xiaogong, who had a discerning eye and a pearl, and then showed his talent, and can Bole be able to discover this horse of his own?
Thinking of this, Le Yi smiled bitterly in his heart, but then he looked at Ying Ji next to him, and began to think in his heart, but then he shook his head in his heart, denying the thought that had just flashed in his heart.
Qin State is already too powerful, and does not need his own assistance. The icing on the cake is often more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people than the help in the snow. Since the State of Yan has decided that it cannot help him, he simply travels around the world. There must be a stage for him to show himself. .
"Do you still want to travel around the world, sir?"
Ying Ji said, and immediately saw what Le Yi was thinking at this moment, hesitant but also unusually firm.
"Exactly, please also ask Your Highness to complete it!"
Le Yi said that Daqin has no room for his own play, and it is only the pursuit of Le Yi's heart that he travels around the world and seeks one of the weak Warring States to assist him to become powerful.
Ying Ji felt helpless in her heart. It seemed that she could only use her advantage as a traveler at this time. She would use her trump card to popularize Le Yi about the future direction of the Warring States period. !
"Sir, it seems that Ying Ji's previous remarks were just to persuade Mr. Yan to give up the country of Yan. If so, then Ying Ji should analyze the situation of the countries in the world for Mr.
"Three Jin Koreas, sitting on a land rich in iron ore in the world, the world's most powerful bows and crossbows are all from Han, known as the strong Han!"
"Although South Korea has a strong military, its own national strength is weak. At that time, the legalist school sent Shen Buhua to South Korea to reform. Originally, South Korea could learn from Qin's secret reform."
"But South Korea wants to make a big splash, and even trains new troops under its own royal city, Xinzheng City."
"It was discovered by the Wei Kingdom and was afraid to dispatch the general Pang Juan to raise 250,000 troops to directly beat the finally rising South Korea until only one Xinzheng city was left, and the new South Korean army was directly destroyed by the first battle!"
"A whole generation of Koreans were killed in this battle, and Korea was interspersed between Qin and Wei."
"Although the Wei Kingdom has fallen, it still has the background of being the hegemon of the Central Plains, and South Korea is mixed in the middle of the two powerful Warring States, and if there is any trouble, it will be instantly discovered, or it will be the enemy on both sides. "
"The state of Wei of the Three Jins and Wei, I am afraid that Mr. Ying Ji knows this, since the Lord of Shang and Duke Xiao led the Qin state to rise, the state of Wei has successively lost in the battle of Hexi."
"After that, Wei State was defeated in the war with Da Qin, and in the second battle of Hexi, the last elite of Da Wei was wiped out. Since then, he was forced to move the capital to Daliang, and this former Central Plains overlord has never recovered! "
"Although the background is still there, Wei State will not have the strength to fight again for at least 30 years. Besides, Wei State has already been frightened by my Daqin. In these 30 years, my Daqin has become stronger."
"Although the Wei State's iron army is re-established now, it is only at the level of thirty years ago. Unless the kings of the Qin Dynasty are all incompetent people, it is impossible to let the Wei State rise. Once the Wei State has any signs of rising All will be directly destroyed by my Daqin, and if you go to Wei State, sir, it will only be as precarious as going to South Korea!"
